A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

Chapter 428 - 428 General Residence

428 General Residence

Ning Yue frowned tightly. Could it be that An Yuan had recovered? That was unlikely, right?

“Tell Jiang Ying about this and ask him to get someone to investigate the general’s residence,” Ning Yue said.

“Yes.” Baili left respectfully.

The reason why she did not hand the matter to Baili to investigate was that Baili was not from the Great Yun Nation, and the capital was not his home ground. It would be strange to make him in charge of the investigation. It was better to let Jiang Ying investigate.

!!

Jiang Ying investigated for two days and quickly came to a conclusion. The results he brought also surprised Ning Yue. It turned out that the old woman had already recovered, but not many people knew about this.

“Grandmother doesn’t know. I don’t know who An Yuan colluded with. That person said that he wanted to help her son ascend the throne and snatch the general’s residence,” Jiang Ying said.

What? Snatch the General’s Residence? “The General’s residence has nothing left. What’s there to snatch?” Ning Yue couldn’t understand and nor could Jiang Ying.

Actually, snatching the general’s residence was secondary. What was important was that An Yuan’s son was not the old general’s son at all. Even if he took the position of general, he would not be legitimate.

So what was An Yuan thinking?

Ning Yue thought for a moment. While it was still early, she went to the general’s residence again. This time, she brought Jiang Ying along.

After chatting with An Ning for a while, Ning Yue left the living room with the excuse of her stomach feeling unwell, leaving Jiang Ying to chat with her.

Ning Yue looked around and avoided some places that people might pass by before arriving at An Yuan’s residence.

When the door was opened, An Yuan’s eyes immediately turned sharp. When she saw that it was Ning Yue, her eyes immediately showed strong hatred.

“Looks like you still hate me very much,” Ning Yue said with a smile.

“I wish I could eat your flesh, skin you, drink your blood, cut your bones into pieces and throw them into the river to feed the fish!” An Yuan gritted her teeth.

Oh? An Yuan could speak now?

“When did you start talking?” Ning Yue asked.

An Yuan’s heart skipped a beat at Ning Yue’s question.

Yes, she shouldn’t be able to speak, but when she saw Ning Yue, she couldn’t help it.

Her eyes darted around. “You didn’t expect me to speak, did you? I curse you every night to die a horrible death. I curse your entire family not to have a good ending. The heavens took pity on me and gave me a voice again.”

Ning Yue raised her eyebrows. Did An Yuan think she was stupid?

“It seems that a scourge won’t die so easily. This sentence is right. After all, the heavens want to punish you. How can they let you die so quickly? Giving you a voice is just to make you wail,” Ning Yue said coldly.

An Yuan was furious with Ning Yue. If not for the fact that she had recuperated well recently, she would have fainted.

Ning Yue was basically certain that the person Baili saw was An Yuan. However, she was really curious about how An Yuan was doing.

Before An Yuan could react, Ning Yue stepped forward to take her pulse.

“What are you doing? Don’t look at me. Get lost!” An Yuan struggled. She didn’t want Ning Yue to touch her.

As Ning Yue’s actions were too sudden, she could not react in time. This struggle allowed Ning Yuan to see something.

When An Yuan realized this, she quickly lowered her movements, but it was too late.

Ning Yue let go of her. “Looks like your body will never be saved. I thought the heavens would pity you and let you walk.”

When An Yuan heard Ning Yue’s words, a smug expression quickly flashed across his face. If not for the fact that Ning Yuan had been paying attention to her facial expression, she would have missed it.

After obtaining the information she wanted, Ning Yue did not say anything else and turned to leave.

On the way, Ning Yue kept thinking about how An Yuan had recovered.

When she was taking An Yuan’s pulse just now, she realized that her pulse was very strange.

She didn’t know what had messed up her pulse. Ordinary doctors would at most think that she was about to die, but in fact, other than being a little weak, she didn’t have any other major problems.

It seemed that there was an expert beside An Yuan.

If that was the case, An Ning was in a lot of danger! Ning Yue frowned. No, she had to send more people to protect her grandmother!

After leaving the General’s Residence, Ning Yue immediately asked Baili to send a few more people to protect An Ning.
