The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 18 Your Highness, you really don't need to overthink it.
"Huh?" Li Yaoting was taken aback.

"The Regent wasn't looking for me?" He asked woodenly, looking at the butler who had hurriedly followed him with a hint of disappointment, and then at Sang Qing in front of him.

The housekeeper was also helpless.

Before he could even explain what had happened, the young master, upon hearing that someone from the Regent's Palace had arrived, ran off without a second thought...

Seeing this, Sang Qing realized what was happening. He almost thought that Yun Dongjia was going to refuse to treat him!

He softened his tone, "I've come today with important business with your wife. Is she in?"

Li Yaoting was taken aback. "Are you looking for the Yun family?"

Sang Qing glanced at him with some surprise.

How could he address Yun Dongjia like that?
He was puzzled, but didn't think much of it and nodded, "Exactly."

The joy in Li Yaoting's heart was instantly extinguished, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over it.

He frowned almost imperceptibly. "What business does the father-in-law have with her?"

"It's important," Sang Qing said with a smile.

Judging from Li Yaoting's reaction, he probably didn't know the identity of the young lady of the Yun Dong family, nor did the Yun Dong family reveal anything about their master to him.

Thinking of this, Sang Qing was very satisfied with Yun Wei.

She is a woman who keeps her mouth shut.

Li Yaoting looked at him suspiciously.

What he said was essentially meaningless; he was clearly just giving him a perfunctory answer.

But these were people from the Regent's Palace, and he couldn't afford to offend them. Even if he was dissatisfied, he couldn't say much. He simply said, "Please sit down, sir. I'll go and invite them right away."

Sang Qing nodded.

Li Yaoting turned around, and his expression darkened.

He could have simply sent someone to invite Lady Yun, but he needed to find out from Lady Yun what was going on between her and the eunuch, and why he had come to see her.
Don't be unchaste and bring shame to the Li family.

When he arrived at Yilan Courtyard, Yunwei was sitting under a tree, leisurely sipping tea.

He immediately recognized the teacup she was holding as a Jianzhan from Jianyang.

Upon seeing this, his eyes flickered.

Although the Yun family did not value her, the dowry she received was still very generous, and even the tea set she used on a daily basis was of such high quality.

"The son-in-law has arrived." Tian'er stepped forward and bowed.

Li Yaoting collected his thoughts, walked straight to Yun Wei, and questioned, "What is your relationship with the people from the Regent's Palace? Why are they looking for you?"

Yun Wei was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

People from the Regent's Palace came looking for her?
I don't know if it was Qingfeng or Sangqing.

Seeing Li Yaoting's aggressive stance, her expression darkened. "You don't need to know."

Li Yaoting was furious. "Yun, don't test my patience. What is your relationship with that eunuch?"

Is the person who came Sang Qing?

Yunwei seemed to be deep in thought.

She ignored Li Yaoting and went straight into the house.

When she came out after changing her clothes, Li Yaoting was no longer in the courtyard.

Tian'er pointed to the chair that had fallen to the ground, "The young master kicked it over."

"Check it out. If it's broken, we can ask him to pay for it," Yunwei said.

"Yes," Tian'er replied crisply.

Yunwei went to the front hall.

Sure enough, Sang Qing was sitting there.

"Eunuch Sang?" she asked, walking in with a puzzled look.

When Sang Qing saw that she had finally appeared, he stood up and respectfully said, "Master Yun Dong".

"What brings Eunuch Sang to see me?" Yun Wei asked directly.

"It's not our family looking for you, it's our master looking for you," Sang Qing corrected with a smile.

"The Regent?" Yunwei was even more puzzled. Could it be that his poison had relapsed? But that shouldn't be the case.

She had already used silver needles to suppress it last time.

Sang Qing said, "I would like to ask Mr. Yun to come with us."

"Okay." Yun Wei didn't hesitate.

After all, Rong Zhen must have sought her out for the matter of Yin Xi.

Having taken on the task of detoxifying him, she couldn't simply abandon him.

Why did Sang Qing come to the Li residence to find her?
He could simply go directly to Manager Ding at Qianjin Pavilion, and then Manager Ding could tell her.

Sang Qing seemed to see her confusion and explained in a low voice, "Going to Qianjin Pavilion would take too much time, so we decided to go directly to the Yun Dong family. But don't worry, Yun Dong family, we only said that we were from the Regent's Palace and didn't say anything else."

Upon hearing this, Yunwei felt relieved.

"Master is waiting for Master Yun at Wangyue Tower." Sang Qing said in a lowered voice.

"Mm." Yun Wei nodded.

Wangyuelou is the premier teahouse in the capital, renowned for its exceptional singing and dancing, as well as its unique tea and snacks. However, it is also very expensive, and usually only high-ranking officials and nobles frequent it.

Yunwei had come several times, mainly for their pastries.

Their desserts were exceptionally good, and she loved them.

When she arrived with Sang Qing, the music inside was melodious, and dancers were gracefully performing on the stage. The guests below were captivated and cheered continuously.

Seeing that she had stopped and was looking at the dancers on the stage, Sang Qing coughed lightly and said in a low voice, "The master is upstairs. If Master Yun wants to watch the song and dance, the upstairs seats are more suitable for viewing."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei withdrew her gaze.

After following Sang Qing upstairs, we entered the private room on the far left.

As soon as the door to the private room opened, Yun Wei saw the young man standing by the window.

The young man wore a dark robe, with one hand behind his back. His profile was handsome and perfect, but he exuded a powerful and intimidating aura.

"Master, we have brought Master Yun Dong with us," Sang Qing said respectfully to the young man.

The young man turned around, and there stood Rong Zhen.

Meeting his stern gaze, Yunwei stepped forward and bowed, "Greetings, Regent."

"No need for formalities." Rong Zhen raised his hand slightly, then walked to the table and sat down. "Please sit down, Mr. Yun."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Yun Wei nodded, then, remembering something, she walked straight to his side.

Her sudden approach made Rong Zhen tense up. Just as he was about to speak, she suddenly pulled up his right sleeve and placed her hand on his wrist.

"Insolence!" Rong Zhen's temple throbbed, and he shouted in a deep voice before grabbing her wrist with his other hand.

Yunwei stared at him in astonishment, "What is Your Highness doing?"

Rong Zhen's face was icy, his dark eyes flashing with coldness. "I should ask you what you're trying to do?"

Looking at his handsome face covered in frost, Yun Wei paused for a moment, then suddenly understood.

The man thought she was flirting with him.
Instead of getting angry, she laughed.

She had to admit, this man was the most handsome she had ever seen, but...

"Has Your Highness forgotten your hidden ailment?" she asked with a mocking expression.

Rong Zhen's expression froze, and his dark eyes narrowed dangerously.

Taking advantage of his distraction, Yunwei skillfully broke free from his grip and placed her fingertips on his fair skin, focusing on taking his pulse.

Rong Zhen was taken aback.

So she was going to take his pulse?
Realizing this, an awkward expression flashed across his handsome face.

But thinking about what she said, he felt a little angry.

This woman kept bringing up his body; if I didn't need her to treat him, I'd really like to throw her out.

After a moment, Yunwei withdrew her hand. "The toxins are well suppressed. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, there will be no recurrence within the next three months."

Rong Zhen glanced at her, then pulled down his sleeve to cover his wrist.

Seeing his guarded look, Yunwei was almost amused and exasperated. She said with mixed feelings, "Your Highness, you really don't need to overthink it. Even if I had such thoughts, I wouldn't be interested in someone like you."
