Wanyan Jin chuckled. “You’re from the Prince Rui Mansion, aren’t you?”
“That’s right.” The servant nodded, shifting his gaze to the portrait in Wanyan Jin’s hands. To his surprise, the man folded the portrait and tucked it away in his pocket. “I happen to be heading out too, so I don’t mind helping you with your search. Can I keep this painting?”
‘How can I say no when you’ve already put it in your pocket?’ the servant thought to himself.
However, he could tell from a glance that the other man was a person of high status, hence he did not dare to voice his objection for fear that he would offend him.
“In that case, thank you.” The servant performed a fist and palm salute to him.
“No problem,” Wanyan Jin replied cheerfully.
After the servant was gone, the smile faded from Wanyan Jin’s face. He turned to one of his guards and ordered, “Go and find out who has been to the Prince Rui Mansion recently.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” The guard left to carry out the order.
Wanyan Jin remained standing in place for a while longer before eventually returning to the coaching inn.
He retrieved the portrait from his pocket and studied it carefully. His fingers found their way onto the paper, tracing the outline of the person drawn on it.
It was an extremely lifelike portrait of Lu Liangwei. Apparently, the artist knew her very well.
However, was she not supposed to be far away in Great Shang? Why would she be here in the Yan Kingdom?
She should have already given birth by now.
He had told her that he would make her regret what she had done. He wondered if she had already received the big gift he had prepared for her.
Soon, his guard returned and reported the information he had collected to him.
“From what I heard, Long Chi arrived in the Yan Kingdom’s capital city this morning with a woman and sought refuge in the Prince Rui Mansion, but the woman secretly escaped in the afternoon when Long Chi wasn’t around. Beitang Rui turned the place upside down but still couldn’t find her, so he sent his men outside to search for her.”
Drumming his fingers on the table, Wanyan Jin suddenly said, “Send a visiting card to the Prince Rui Mansion.”
The guard nodded and left.
Wanyan Jin stared at the flourishing orchids on the windowsill, and an undetectable emotion flitted across his eyes.
The Prince Rui Mansion.
When Beitang Rui received the visiting card brought to him by his servant, he was surprised.
“Wanyan Jin?”
A few days had passed since Wanyan Jin arrived in the Yan Kingdom. There were various forces who wanted to win him over, but he remained solitary and ignored them all.
However, he had just received a visiting card from Wanyan Jin.
It stated that he would pay a visit to the Prince Rui Mansion tomorrow.
Beitang Rui was not too thrilled about that. He had met Wanyan Jin a few times, and he had gotten the impression that the latter was an unfathomable person and an unlikely ally.
Nevertheless, he had no reason to decline him from visiting.
In fact, he wanted to find out what game Wanyan Jin was playing.
The next day.
After enjoying a night of restful sleep, Lu Liangwei woke up bright and early, feeling energized.
Yuan Xin’s servants had specially cleared out a room for her to prepare her medicines.
When Lu Liangwei stepped into the room and saw the vast array of equipment inside, she could not help marveling at Yuan Xin’s efficiency.
All the medicinal materials that she needed had also been purchased and placed in the room.
She was not in a hurry to start work on the remedy for Yuan Xin’s face. After organizing the medicinal materials, she decided to prepare the medicines she wanted for herself first.
The ones she had prepared earlier had been confiscated by Long Chi, so she had to start all over again.
Half of the medicinal materials on the list she gave Yuan Xin yesterday were for herself, while only the other half were for Yuan Xin’s cure.
Lu Liangwei spent the whole morning in the room preparing medicine for self-defense, only using whatever free time she had to decoct some liquid medicine to heal Yuan Xin’s face.
After lunch, she brought the decoction to Yuan Xin.
