Chapter 344: Tao Banxian

Yang Jinfan raised his hand and gently poked Yao Yingying's little head.

Although he is younger than Yao Yingying in age and stature, he looks more like an adult.

"Don't just focus on eating. Tao Su'er means..."

Escape from fate.

"What is it?"

Yang Jinfan suddenly stopped talking halfway through. Yao Yingying raised her head curiously, observing her expression with blinking eyes.

Never mind. There isn't much difference between fading memories and completely forgetting the past.

It's nothing more than forgetting the pain.

"The Tao in ceramics and the Su in basil are not the peach cake you are eating, do you understand?"

Yao Yingying glanced at the last bite of peach cake in her hand and stuffed it into her mouth.

He smiled with his eyes curved, and without waiting for him to finish eating, he nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Time passed quickly, and in the evening, Chao Yan finally came back.

"Miss, shop..."

As soon as I entered the room, I was startled by the scene that came into view.

Her young lady sat at the table, looking at another strange woman with doting eyes.

The woman was as delicate as a jade porcelain doll, with a fairy-like temperament and eyes as clear as glass. She looked like an elf who had accidentally strayed into the mortal world, so beautiful that she seemed otherworldly.

In...biting the braised pig's trotter in his hand vigorously.

"..."

Chao Yan twitched the corner of his mouth.

Yang Jinfan stood up and asked her to sit down: "You are back, this is Tao Suer, my friend. Don't be alert, she is mine."

Chaoyan nodded obediently and began to report what happened today. When Tao Suer heard Yang Jinfan introduce her, she just looked up and smiled politely at Chaoyan, and continued to eat with her head down.

The Wang family is a century-old prominent family in Suzhou. Their ancestors have produced several high-ranking officials and have inherited titles. They are quite influential in the entire Suzhou city, and even the Suzhou prefect has to give them some face. However, among the descendants of the Wang family in recent generations, there are really few who are capable of taking on important tasks.

If it weren't for the marriage of a noble lady from the capital, who restored the Wang family to its former glory, the Wang family would probably have continued to decline until they became common people.

The person in charge of the Wang family now is called Wang Mengwu. He has no special talents in business management. The reason why the Wang family's businesses can operate is that a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Wang Mengwu himself was a greedy, lustful and violent person. He spent all day in red-light districts. In order to win a smile from the beauties in the brothels, he once spent thousands of dollars in one night. He was also a man who indulged in all kinds of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.

I contracted an internal organ disease not long ago, and fearing that my reputation would be damaged, I could only seek out a famous doctor in secret. However, the internal organ disease was so severe that without a medical expert, I'm afraid it would be difficult to save me.

Yang Jinfan sneered. This was almost the same as the information she asked her senior sister to find out about Lanpingxuan, which was now in charge of the company.

"Since you are afraid of your reputation being exposed, who leaked this news?"

Chaoyan met Yang Jinfan's playful gaze and smiled in tacit understanding.

"Miss, you already know everything. Why are you asking even though you already know the answer? Of course, the family is in turmoil and there are many traitors. In addition to the eldest young master, the Wang family also has a second young master who has been hiding his talents for many years and has been suppressed by his brother. If he has no resentment in his heart, naturally no one will believe it."

Yang Jinfan curled his lips with a faint smile, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chaoyan, and also handed over a snack.

"Thank you for your hard work on the journey. Eat something and rest for a while. Go back to Guihun Valley tomorrow. Yuepan and Xingnuo are probably on their way home. Tell them to follow me to the Wang family in a month and deal with the family feud as soon as possible. By the way, help me report safety to Master and his wife." "Yes, Chaoyan will remember this."

After explaining everything, Yang Jinfan went to the store to ask for some paper and pen, preparing to write a letter to Gu Jun and Feng Yiyao.

The power of the Wang family is probably not only due to the protection of their ancestors, but they must have also relied on some unknown force, which is why they dared to collude with the prefect so blatantly and instruct the county magistrate to kidnap people.

Once the Sixth Prince Feng Yiyao returns to the capital, there will definitely be some trouble.

Suzhou, this fertile land, must have been an important resource that the royal family fought over.

Who knows, it might have already been taken away by one of the princes or grandsons of the emperor.

She herself was far away in Jiangnan and could not interfere in the affairs of the court, but she still had to remind them to be careful.

According to the news from Lanpingxuan, there is an important figure in the Wang family now. Although he has been buried for many years and there is no news about this figure in the capital, Emperor Jingde still cares about him and mentioned him not long ago.

The people in the imperial court leaked the news, fearing that this person would offend the Wang family, so the Wang family secretly found people and used extreme means to kidnap her parents back to the palace.

There were a few high-ranking officials among the Wang family's ancestors, but if you look closely, they were not big shots.

Yang Jinfan frowned slightly. The person who could be involved with Emperor Jingde must be the noble lady from Beijing who married into the Wang family.

Logically speaking, a noble lady from the capital marrying into a merchant family should be a long-lasting curiosity in Suzhou City, so why is it so unknown?
The people from Lanpingxuan were still investigating this person, so she could only wait until she entered the Wang family.

Night fell completely and the starlight was sparse. After Yao Yingying put on a veil and a hood, she left the inn with Chao Yan when the lights came on.

After they left, Yang Jinfan slipped into the space, changed into night clothes, left through the window, and followed closely behind.

Although the waiter and the shopkeeper were surprised as to why the two women wanted to check out at this moment, they still did not ask any more questions.

The two men left the inn and pretended to go shopping before turning around and entering the rented house.

Yang Jinfan jumped into the yard after they entered.

"Miss, there was a family living here before. I gave them a higher price, so they didn't take anything away. Everything in the yard is clean and usable."

Yang Jinfan looked around and nodded: "Okay, you guys go and rest first. Tomorrow morning, go buy things to decorate this place as I said. Remember, whenever you go out, you must bring a face towel."

"Su'er, Chaoyan understands."

After saying that, Yang Jinfan slipped into the darkness.

The streets in the city usually have a late curfew, but the plague has not completely passed. At this time, every house in the city has its doors closed and the lights turned off to rest.

It's just convenient for Yang Jinfan to do his work.

She wandered around the streets, found sleeping beggars, woke them up, told them what to do, then left some change and left.

Early the next morning, rumors spread in Suzhou city that "he was both a doctor and a fortuneteller, and his predictions were as good as those of the immortal Tao Banxian."

Word spread from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and from a hundred to a thousand. Countless people in the city were extremely curious about this "Tao Banxian" who suddenly appeared.

"Can you tell fortunes and read horoscopes? Is that true?"

"How is this possible? I've never heard of such a person before. This must be a trick played by a charlatan!"

"His brother, you can't say that. I heard that someone cured a disease there and told fortunes there, saving his 80-year-old mother. That's why the name of Tao Banxian spread."

"Yeah, I heard about it too. That half-immortal is different from the ordinary charlatans on the street. I heard that he really looks like a celestial being. You can feel the breath of God even before you get close to him!"

My fellow readers, I seem to be back.
