Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 148 Something happened

Because Jun Jiuchen repeatedly told her not to interfere in the "Yao Ping" matter, after Song Wan returned from Fang Mansion, she called Chen Tai and asked him to withdraw everyone.

However, because the matter involved the court, she could not tell Chen Tai the details of the situation. Song Wan was somewhat worried that Chen Tai would act on his own because of his concern for Nie Shuangshuang.

However, he had to repeatedly emphasize to him that the matter was somewhat complicated, and that the Regent had already promised to send someone to investigate in detail, so he should not act rashly to avoid counterproductive consequences.

Then, since Rongjunfang was almost ready and Jiang Zheng and Liu had sent people to urge them, she set off for Rongjunfang.

But on the day Song Wan went out, he was caught by Su Ziyao who was waiting in a teahouse not far from the Jiang family's door.

Su Ziyao looked at the graceful and pretty woman not far away, and his face immediately showed interest.

It seems... this "most beautiful woman in the capital" that his cousin mentioned really wasn't lying to him...

After traveling for more than an hour, the carriage arrived at a farm outside the capital. Since Jiang Zheng and Liu had already asked people to prepare all the medicinal materials in advance, the medicine was made quite quickly.

But just four days later, when Song Wan had just finished dealing with the Rongjunfang matter and returned to the Jiang family, a piece of news suddenly came...

It is said that Chen Tai had a conflict with Su Ziang in Hongxiuzhao and even beat Su Ziang. Now he has been arrested and imprisoned by Jingzhao Yin.

The person who delivered the message was Xiaotao, the maidservant next to Nie Shuangshuang whom Song Wan had met last time.

Song Wan looked at the little girl standing in the hall with an anxious look on her face and asked.

"Why did they start fighting out of nowhere? Are the injuries serious?"

Xiao Tao just responded.

"I don't know the details, I only know that Mr. Su was seriously injured, and even my daughter's repeated pleas were useless."

"My lady has no other choice, so I asked you to come over and discuss how to rescue Master Chen."

Song Wan looked at the eagerness in the girl's eyes, but only said.

"I know about this."

"But your daughter has a close relationship with Master Su, yet she still couldn't persuade him. I don't even know Master Su, so even if I let you go, I won't be able to come to any conclusion."

"You should go back first. Since you don't know the inside story, it won't be too late to talk to me after I have clarified this matter."

Xiaotao continued at the dinner party.

"Although I don't know Mr. Su, my daughter heard that you have some friendship with the Regent, so I thought... could you please take her to see the Regent and see if he can mediate the situation?"

"The Prince Regent is a close confidant of the Empress Dowager. I believe Master Su will definitely give this favor."

Song Wan listened to Xiao Tao's words, but still did not agree, just smiled.

"Miss Nie thinks too highly of me. The Regent is a very important figure, and he has a lot of work to do. I am a nobody, so how could he care about such trivial matters for my sake?"

"This matter...I'm afraid your daughter will be disappointed."

Xiao Tao seemed to be a little surprised that Song Wanhui would refuse so decisively, and a trace of barely perceptible panic flashed across her eyes.

The last time she heard it outside the house, she knew clearly that Miss Jiang valued Chen Tai very much.

Otherwise, as a woman, she would not have gone to a place like Hongxiuzhao for him.

How come she looks...not anxious at all now?

But even so, she still did not give up and advised:

"Since this method doesn't work, why don't you come with me to meet my daughter and discuss another solution?"

"To be honest, young lady, although my young lady chose Mr. Su because she wanted to return to a good family, she and Mr. Chen were childhood sweethearts after all, and it is not so easy to let go. She also does not want to be a burden to Mr. Chen anymore, so she cruelly broke up with him and wished we could both live our own best."

"But now that Master Chen has been imprisoned, his life or death unknown, my daughter has been unable to sleep or eat, and has been crying all day. I am really worried that my daughter will be unable to get over it..."

"My daughter has no relatives or friends in Shangjing City. It is because I only know you, my dear, who cares about Mr. Chen's life and death. That is why I have the audacity to come here. Even if I really can't think of a solution, it would be great if you could come with me to comfort my daughter..."

Seeing this girl being so articulate and repeatedly asking her to follow her to Hongxiuzhao, Song Wan couldn't help but become more suspicious.

From what she had seen last time, although Nie Shuangshuang had fallen into prostitution, her words and actions were extremely measured.

She had only met her once. Even if she was really worried about Chen Tai's situation and wanted to discuss some countermeasures with her, she should have come in person instead of rashly letting a decent woman like her fall for the prostitution again...

And if it is true as this girl said, that she wanted her to ask Jun Jiuchen to come forward, and it is inconvenient for her to go out, she can just let this girl send a letter to explain the matter clearly. Why must she go to Hongxiuzhao?

The most important thing is that she had been away from Beijing for several days, and she had just stepped into the mansion when she arrived.

The timing is just too coincidental...

Although she couldn't think of any motives that she or Nie Shuangshuang would have against her at the moment, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Nie Shuangshuang might have been controlled by the "Yao Ping" mentioned by Jun Jiuchen, so it would not be surprising if she was coerced into doing something.

Therefore, she would not rashly follow her until she figured it out.

Song Wan thought about it and looked at Xiao Tao, who had an anxious look on her face.

"I know you're worried about your daughter, but I've only met her once and don't know her very well. If I were to offer comfort, I might not be as effective as you."

"Since you're worried about her not being able to make it, you should take good care of her."

"I've already said that I understand your girl's intentions. Since Chen Tai is working for me, I won't just leave it alone. When I have a clue, I'll have someone inform your girl..."

"Luluo, please send Miss Xiaotao out."

Seeing this, Xiaotao wanted to say something else, but Luoluo received the young lady's gaze, took a few steps forward, and made a gesture of invitation to her, as if to drive her away.

Seeing this, Xiao Tao had no choice but to bite her lip and turn away...

Seeing Xiaotao walk out with Luoluo, Hongshang looked at Song Wandao.

"Miss, do you think there's something wrong with this girl?"

Song Wan nodded.

"Tell a few servants to take some silver and go to Hongxiuzhao tonight to see if they can find someone to find out what happened there that day."

"You should go to Jingzhao Yin in person and see if you can arrange for him to ask how Chen Tai is doing and whether you can go in to visit him."

Upon hearing this, Hong Chang immediately responded "yes" and left.

Song Wan sat there, feeling that what happened today was really strange, but she had no clue for the moment. She just thought that today was the day when she would give Jun Jiuchen acupuncture once every five days.

I can also ask him how his investigation into Yao Peng is going...

He put his thoughts aside for the moment and got up to pack his medicine box.
