Reborn as a doctor, he takes revenge and ruthlessly punishes the scum.

Right then, a fierce internal struggle was raging within her.

The question remains: should I tell Yu Moyan everything?

Yu Moyan, unwilling to see her struggle, sighed deeply and spoke first:

“Shuyan, from childhood to adulthood, I’ve always been the one who understands you the most. You’ve completely changed since you came back this time. Although I’ve always felt that you are much better now than the timid, indecisive, and selfless person you used to be, I also sense that you’re hiding many things from us.”

"Shuyan, I can sense that beneath your seemingly calm eyes lies a deep sense of repression and a heavy burden."

"Although you say you want to seek revenge on Wen Lang and that you're worried he'll take Xiao Tuanzi away, I always feel that your worries go far beyond that."

"Shuyan, can you tell me what you're worried about?"

As Yu Shuyan listened to his worried words and met his warm and tender gaze, she couldn't help but want to tell him everything she had experienced in her past life.

Yu Moyan looked at her, seeing her conflicted expression, and ultimately couldn't bear to pressure her.

He sighed softly and said:

"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. I only need one name. Who else but Wen Lang?"

Yu Shuyan's eyes trembled slightly:

"Brother, you~"

Yu Moyan sighed softly:

"If it were just Wen Lang, would he make you so anxious and heavy-hearted? Tell me, who else is it that we absolutely must..."

It must match.

Yu Shuyan felt a warmth in her heart. He used "we," which was telling her that no matter who she was going to face, they would stand firmly with her through thick and thin!

Yu Shuyan stopped hesitating, staring directly into Yu Moyan's eyes, and slowly uttered a few words:

"Princess Changning~Gong Beige!"

A look of surprise flashed in Yu Moyan's eyes. After a moment's thought, he said:

"Until death?"

Yu Shuyan nodded:

"Till death!"

Yu Moyan frowned, and her whole demeanor seemed somewhat gloomy.

Yu Shuyan thought that he was worried that facing Princess Changning would bring danger to the Yu family.

Indeed, a commoner merchant like himself was up against the reigning princess, who was not only the emperor's beloved younger sister but also a powerful princess who commanded "shadow guards" that made officials tremble with fear.

Anyone would hesitate and feel fear.

Unconsciously, Yu Shuyan offered words of comfort:

"Brother, don't worry, I won't let you get into danger. I—"

"I'm thinking about where to start if we want to deal with the current princess!"

Yu Moyan smiled, her eyes filled with warmth, and spoke softly.

Yu Shuyan was taken aback:

"Brother, what did you say? Aren't you worried?!"

Yu Moyan smiled indulgently:

“Silly girl, how could I not worry? I worry about how you manage to carry such a heavy burden on your heart; I worry that I am not capable enough to protect you properly; I also worry that my poison will take effect soon, and I won’t have time to shelter you from the storm.”

As he finished speaking, a hint of bitterness crept into his voice.

Yu Shuyan felt a lump in her throat, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

This is her brother, who loves and protects her brother without asking why.

He didn't ask her how she could have become an enemy of the princess;

She didn't complain; how could she have become enemies with the princess?

I'm not worried that she will bring disaster to the Yu family.

He was just thinking about how he could better protect her;

He was just in a hurry; if he died from the poisoning, he wouldn't have time to protect her from the wind and rain!

She must have saved the galaxy in her past life to have such a wonderful brother who is beyond words!

Unconsciously, Yu Shuyan said in a trembling voice:

"Brother, I'm sorry, I..."

Yu Moyan's eyes showed even more doting affection as he gently raised his hand and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Silly girl, remember, you never need to apologize to your older brother, understand?"

Yu Shuyan smiled through her tears:

"Got it, big brother."

Yu Moyan smiled and nodded, then suddenly seemed to remember something and said:

"Could this letter be from Changning?"

Yu Shuyan shook her head:

"No, I'm sure of it."

Seeing her certainty, Yu Moyan didn't ask any further questions, but frowned and said:

"So, are you going to keep the appointment?"

Yu Shuyan thought for a moment and asked:

"Brother, it seems that Chancellor Situ Xiong is highly trusted by the Emperor and Changning, isn't he?"

Yu Moyan frowned and thought for a moment:

"It was Situ Xiong who exposed the Marquis of Zhenbei's rebellion. At that time, Situ Xiong was just..."

He was merely a junior officer under the command of the Marquis of Zhenbei.

Yu Shuyan nodded:

"So, he betrayed the Marquis of Zhenbei to gain the emperor's and Changning's trust and obtain the position of prime minister?"

Yu Moyan frowned and said:

"Well, it's both yes and no! There are direct reasons for betraying the Marquis of Zhenbei and for him to obtain the position of Prime Minister."

Yu Shuyan was puzzled:

"Isn't that right?"

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Yu Moyan's eyes:

"Trust? The Emperor and Changning trust no one. They are truly siblings, equally suspicious and prone to overthinking."

They don't trust anyone; they just like to control people!

Yu Shuyan noticed that when Yu Moyan spoke of the Emperor and Changning, her voice was filled with disdain and contempt. She couldn't help but say:

"Brother, was this one of the reasons why you weren't keen on becoming an official in the imperial court before?"

Yu Moyan sighed softly, turned around, and looked again at the withered leaf swaying precariously in the wind:

"The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease."

"I should not run away from the country or my family."

Yu Shuyan sensed a hidden meaning in his words and couldn't help but ask:

"Brother, what do you mean by this?"

Yu Moyan turned around and said:

"I just made a decision."

"Alright, I'll let you know once I've confirmed this. What did you mean by asking Situ Xiong just now?"

Yu Shuyan was curious about what decision he had made.

But since he didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't press him, so she said:

"I'm wondering if Changning will attend Situ Yue's banquet?"

Yu Moyan was taken aback, her eyes revealing undisguised worry:

"What do you want to do?"

Yu Shuyan hurriedly said:

"Brother, don't worry. I just want to observe Changning more. After all, you can't win a battle if you know yourself and your enemy. I won't confront her for now, so don't worry."

Yu Moyan nodded slightly:

"That's not necessarily true. However, Changning often attends Situ Yue's banquets."

"So, you've decided to keep the appointment?"

Yu Shuyan nodded:

"Brother, trust me, I can handle this."

Yu Moyan nodded:

"Since you've made up your mind, then go for it. Remember, be careful in everything you do. Don't be afraid, I'll be right behind you!"

Yu Shuyan always felt that there was something hidden in his words.

However, her complete trust in him prevented her from pressing further. Instead, she smiled and nodded emphatically.
