The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

After Nanny Zhu finished her report, Madam He continued, "Miss, Zong Yue is already on his way back to the capital and will be there in five days."

It's really amazing to say. When Mother He thought about how she first met Zong Yue in Cao City, he was just a down-and-out young man. She didn't expect that after a few years, he really became what everyone calls a miracle doctor.

I have to say that the young lady's vision is really amazing. Just because Zong Yue is the grandson of Doctor Gu, she spent so much time and energy to support him.

Yang Qi nodded. There were many things going on in Xihu and the relationships were complicated. If Zong Yue hadn't been there to keep an eye on things over the years, Yang Qi would never have dared to feel at ease.

Counting carefully, Zong Yue has not been back to the capital for almost a year. This time he came back, he must have brought a lot of news, especially from Fang Hua.

As the most deeply planted chess piece by Yang Qi, covering up Fang Hua's identity is of utmost importance. Apart from Yang Qi, Zong Yue, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, no one else knows Fang Hua's true identity.

If there was no vital matter, Fang Hua would not send a message back and would concentrate on staying in the Western Luomanzi.

Otherwise, once Fang Hua and Zong Yue have a closer connection, even if Yang Qi and Zong Yue's arrangements are flawless, once someone with ulterior motives takes it to heart, even if no fault can be found on the surface, it will arouse suspicion in the long run.

Yang Qi gave Fang Hua absolute freedom. As long as he could complete the tasks assigned by him, Yang Qi would not ask how he did it or how much money he spent.

After Mother He and Nanny Zhu left the room, Yang Qi took out the "Art of War" that he had kept close to him, and then took out a new booklet and began to copy it.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not say when it will be returned, but we still need to prepare as soon as possible.

Yang Qi was worried that he would not be able to understand the deep meaning of some of the annotations, so he planned to copy down the entire book, especially the annotations.

This is Yang Qi’s first time copying a book. He writes and stops from time to time, but he has a deeper understanding than the first time he read it.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a martial arts expert, and the comments he wrote are much more powerful and tense than Yang Qi's.

Yang Qi was very impressed with the handwriting of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and unknowingly began to imitate the handwriting of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince during the copying process.

After dinner, Yang Qi tidied up his herbal garden in Houhu Lake for a while.

When Yang Qi was not at home, Mother He cleaned up the place very carefully, and Yang Qi only needed to check the growth status of each herb.

With Guangmingtang around, Yang Qi doesn't need this herb garden to have a large output. He just wants to better understand the habits of different herbs.

When Yang Lan arrived, Yang Qi was immersed in her own herbs. Mother He took the second young lady to the study first, and then went to the herb garden to tell Yang Qi.

Hearing Madam Zhu's reply, Yang Qi smiled, fearing that her second sister was here to ask her about Lingshan Temple: "Madam Zhu, I need to change my clothes."

Whenever Yang Qi cleaned up the herb garden and the back lake, she wore simple fine cloth clothes, which were convenient for work and washing. But if she was entertaining guests, it would be too rude to wear such clothes.

From childhood to adulthood, Yang Lan has been to Qinfangyuan only a few times, but Yang Qi often goes to Qinfangyuan.

Yang Qi walked into the room with a smile: "Second sister, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Yang Lan put down the cup: "I know you like medicinal herbs. This time you come back, you don't even have time to rest and pick these up." When Yang Lan first learned that Yang Qi had cleared a piece of land in Houhu Lake to grow medicinal herbs, her reaction was the same as Xu's, both of them were shocked.

In the past, Yang Lan only knew that Yang Qi was interested in medical books, but she never thought that his interest was so great. He really deserved to be a descendant of the Gu family.

Yang Lan was already waiting in the study, and Yang Qi didn't want to keep Yang Lan waiting for too long, so she didn't take a shower, but changed her clothes and came over. Because of this, the herbal scent on Yang Qi's body did not fade.

Yang Qi smiled lightly: "I'm sorry to make you laugh, but what is the matter with you coming to see me today?"

Yang Lan looked at Yu Lu, and Yu Lu put down the box in her hand and left the room.

When Yang Qi saw Yu Lu retreating, he gave a look to Nanny Zhu. It seemed that Yang Lan didn't want too many people to hear what he said next.

This box was just an excuse. Yang Lan handed the box to Yang Qi and said, "I got a new inkstone the other day. I knew you liked writing, so I sent it to you."

Yang Qi took it with a smile, knowing that this was not the point, so he did not follow Yang Lan's words, but just looked at Yang Lan.

Yang Lan grew up with Yang Qi, so she didn't beat around the bush: "Yang Qi, you've been in Lingshan Temple for so many days, is it true that you didn't hear any news or rumors at all?"

Yang Qi was a little confused: "I wonder what kind of information Second Sister is asking about?"

Yang Lan shook his hand: "All the news." Yang Lan always felt that the Lingshan Temple incident was not that simple. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Prince An came here one after another. What was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince planning, or was His Royal Highness Prince An and the Fifth Prince conspiring?

What worries Yang Lan even more is that the Duke's Mansion and the Marquis of Yongyi's Mansion not only cannot guess the purpose of the actions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Prince An, but they don't even know the specific content.

As the battle between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince became increasingly fierce, the capital seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog. Walking in this fog, everyone had to be extremely alert, otherwise if they were not careful, they would be doomed.

Yang Qi had already joined the Crown Prince, and now he only needed to plan for him. From this point of view, could it be that the Yongyi Marquis's residence was unstable in the Fifth Prince's camp?

Seeing that Yang Lan didn't look like she was joking, Yang Qi thought for a moment and said, "Second sister, that day when my second aunt and I were leaving the Duke's Mansion, we were blocked on the way to Lingshan Temple. I asked Xin Che to get off the carriage to check, and it turned out that Princess Cheng'an's carriage broke down on the way, so the road was blocked.

As a result, we arrived at Lingshan Temple very late. After a simple wash, my second aunt and I went to worship the Bodhisattva in Lingshan Temple.

However, because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in Lingshan Temple, when we first arrived at Lingshan Temple, there were people everywhere.

Second Aunt originally planned to return home the next day, but Lingshan Temple was going to hold a Dharma Assembly. Second Aunt said that Lingshan Temple rarely held Dharma assemblies, and this time she was lucky to catch up.

Therefore, we decided to attend the Dharma Assembly before returning home, and even sent someone to deliver a letter to the mansion.

Second sister, you should know what happened next."

Yang Qi picked out some things that could be said and told Yang Lan everything.

Yang Lan thought for a moment and said, "In the temple, apart from the day of the Dharma Assembly, has he ever seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at any other time?"

Yang Qi shook his head: "There are a lot of people in Lingshan Temple. When Xin Che and I were walking around the temple, we always saw groups of people waiting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. But at other times, I haven't heard of anyone seeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After hesitating for a while, Yang Qi added: "It is also possible that I am not well-informed and did not know about it."

Yang Lan was not well-informed about the news in Lingshan Temple, let alone himself.
