Chapter 710 Thinking
Tang Wan glanced at the time; it was getting late, so she had to go out.

I'll look at it again when I have another time!
Tang Wan left the space with a heavy heart.

We haven't found a more suitable method for the War King yet.

She feared that the high priest would return.

After all, this person is no ordinary person. Although the altar was destroyed by the War King and his men without warning, the high priest is most likely unharmed.

At most, he'll just get injured.

Having suffered such a great loss, he is determined to get it back.

As for his next move, nobody knows.

Therefore, if the War King were free to move around at this moment, he might be able to strike at this High Priest first, and preferably completely defeat him.

Tang Wan pondered as she walked down the mountain toward home.

Suddenly she saw Zhang Yong helping a woman put a basket on her back.

After putting it down, I was worried and wanted to help hold it up.

The woman said something to him, but it's unclear.

Zhang Yong scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and then secretly took a peach from the woman's basket.

Then the woman walked down the mountain alone.

Zhang Yong looked down at his half-full basket of peaches, then put the peaches in his hand back into the basket.

He hesitated for a moment, then started picking peaches again.

Tang Wan was startled. She had never seen this girl before, and she remembered that Zhang Yong had a fiancée.

His mother also told him not to observe mourning and to hurry up and get married so that he could take care of his younger siblings.

Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid something bad is about to happen!

Tang Wan didn't dare to go up and bother Zhang Yong, fearing that he would give up and do something reckless.

After hiding for a short while, Tang Wan turned back.

He walked up to Zhang Yong and greeted him casually, "Zhang Yong? Are you fully recovered?"

When Wu instigated people to cause trouble at the Tang family's peach orchard last time, Zhang Yong was the most seriously injured while protecting the orchard.

But as far as I can remember, he didn't seem to rest much before coming to work.

"Reporting to the master, everything is completely healed!" Zhang Yong replied respectfully.

Even knowing that Tang Wan was a woman, Zhang Yong did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. Even if she was not the host, Zhang Yong admired her abilities to the point of prostration.

"That's good. Tell me if you have any difficulties! Are your younger siblings doing well?" Tang Wan asked gently.

Hearing Tang Wan's concern for his younger siblings, Zhang Yong felt a warmth in his heart and gratefully replied, "Yes, thank you for your concern, Master! My younger siblings are doing well! Steward Chen often brings them food, which makes them very happy. They've always asked me to thank you on their behalf!"

When Steward Chen brings out snacks and canned food, he always tells him that it was given to him by the head of the family.

Before he came to work for the Tang family, he never knew that women could be in charge of the household, not just managing the inner quarters, but managing all affairs.

However, if this were the person in charge in front of him, he would know that this was all as it should be.

This person is truly capable, regardless of gender.

Tang Wan, unaware of Zhang Yong's thoughts, simply said politely, "No need to be so polite! I'm glad your younger brother and sister are happy! You can go ahead and get back to work."

After saying that, Tang Wan continued walking home.

After walking for a short distance, Tang Wan saw Chen Da in Taoyuan.

So she called out, "Uncle Chen!" Upon hearing the Second Miss's voice, Chen Da quickly put down the peaches he was holding and came over to bow, saying, "The Second Miss has arrived!"

Tang Wan smiled and said, "Uncle Chen, may I speak to you in private?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Da quickly followed Tang Wan and took a few steps to the side.

Tang Wan made sure no one else could hear their conversation before asking in a low voice, "Uncle Chen, when did a strange girl come to our Peach Garden?"

Chen Da had initially thought it was something confidential, but it turned out to be this. He then explained, "I've only been here for three days. Zhang Yong came to me for help, and I figured Taoyuan needed people too, so I agreed. Is there something wrong with that?"

Upon hearing that Zhang Yong had introduced her, Tang Wan quickly asked, "Why did he introduce her? What's her relationship with him?"

“Zhang Yong said she’s his fiancée, and they’re getting married soon! So I arranged for them to pick peaches together, so they can look after each other and also get to know each other better.” Chen Da said it naturally and fluently, without feeling that there was anything wrong with it at all.

"I see! That explains why I've never seen you before. You're my fiancée. That's great!" Tang Wan replied casually.

After hearing what Chen Da said, Tang Wan finally felt relieved. So he was her fiancée. She was really afraid that Zhang Yong would get into other romantic entanglements because of coming to Taoyuan, and then it would be her fault.

Suddenly, Tang Wan remembered something and asked, "By the way, Uncle Chen, has a girl come to work recently? Her surname is Guo, and I introduced her to her."

"Yes, he's a hardworking and resilient child!" Chen Da couldn't help but praise.

"That's good. Uncle Chen, you go ahead with your work. I'll head back now," Tang Wan replied with a smile.

Chen Da shook his head, looking at Tang Wan walking away, feeling somewhat confused and completely unaware of what the second young lady meant.

Chen Da turned back to his work. He figured if he didn't know, he'd just keep working. He figured the young lady would tell him what she wanted.

Tang Wan quickly descended the mountain and returned to her room a short while later, it was lunchtime.

After lunch, Tang Wan went to the prefectural capital.

The carriage remained parked at the inquiry shop as usual. Ding Li was sent to help out at the rouge shop, while the emperor himself went to the prefectural government residence.

Unexpectedly, something else happened when she arrived at the house: after a few days away, people had actually entered the house!
But this person was a bit unlucky.

When she left last time, she actually set up a simple formation outside the main house and the warehouse.

If someone accidentally wanders in, they probably won't be able to get out for a while, unless they themselves understand esoteric arts or the art of Qimen Dunjia.

That person obviously didn't have any, so they were trapped inside and couldn't get out.

The key point is that he has been trapped for several days.

When Tang Wan saw him, he was already on the verge of death.

Seeing this, Tang Wan took a glass of water from inside the house, opened the array door, and fed the person a sip of water.

The person who had drunk the water slowly opened their eyes, glanced at Tang Wan, and pleaded, "Help me!"

Tang Wan nodded slightly and said, "Okay, tell me why you came here!"

Tang Wan asked questions while feeding the child water.

The man seemed to have a bit more strength than before, so he gulped down the rest of the water. Then, somewhat guiltily, he replied, "I heard this family is extremely wealthy, with warehouses overflowing with grain and lots of carts coming and going. So I came to try my luck and see if I could get some grain."

Tang Wan looked at the man's face and realized that what he said wasn't a lie; it was probably true.

Although this person doesn't have the appearance of a truly wicked villain, he does engage in petty theft and other shady activities.

Seeing this, Tang Wan understood what was going on and didn't want to waste any more time. She pretended to go back to her room to get something, but actually took out a steamed bun from her spatial storage and handed it over: "Alright, since you're not a truly wicked person, I'll let it go this time. Take the bun and go! If you come back next time, you might not be so lucky as to catch me when I return. Be careful, or you might lose your life!"

The thief didn't dare to linger. After getting up, he hurriedly left Tang Wan's house.

After everyone left, Tang Wan went into her spatial dimension; she had more important things to do.
