Chapter 1747 Portrait Jade Pendant
Chapter 1747 Portrait Jade Pendant
When Yin Yunting saw that Madam Yao was there and that Yao Yutong had woken up, he went to his father's side and asked, "Father, what did they say?"
Yin Changxing glanced at Yao Yutong, nodded, and said, "This Miss Yao said that she seems to have seen me before."
He kept this important point in mind.
Yin Yunting was also somewhat surprised and looked at Yao Yutong.
Yao Yutong was still trapped in the fear of that cup of tea when she suddenly met Yin Changxing's gaze. A flash of inspiration struck her, and she remembered when she had seen Yin Changxing before.
She suddenly exclaimed, "The jade carving! It's the jade carving that Lady Mang wears at her waist!"
She remembered, and connected all the dots.
The reason Madam Mang offered her that cup of tea was perhaps because she had clearly seen the human figure carved on the small jade pendant at Madam Mang's waist!
Yin Changxing was stunned for a moment after hearing her words, and then asked incredulously, "What? What did you say, the jade pendant worn at the waist?"
Yao Yutong nodded and said, "Yes, it's the palm-sized jade pendant she wore at her waist. The jade pendant was carved with a lifelike image. I can tell that the jade image looks a lot like you."
What is that? A human figure worn on the waist?
Yin Changxing frowned, finding it somewhat difficult to accept this premise.
Of course, it's none of his business if a stranger wants to wear a portrait on his waist, but if the jade carving is of his likeness, he would find it unacceptable.
Yin Yunting imagined the scene and immediately felt a little strange. He looked at his father and couldn't help but ask, "Father, back then...did you have some kind of romantic entanglement or something? Or did you owe any emotional debts...?"
He wouldn't have dared to ask such a question before, since Yin Changxing was quite friendly to Lu Zhaoling, but a completely different, serious person in front of his son.
Even when they were master and disciple, Yin Yunting had to be very proper in front of his master and dared not joke around. But this matter did sound very strange, so he couldn't help himself for a moment.
Yin Changxing glanced at him, giving him a look that said, "What do you think?"
Yin Changxing had been admired by many women before.
After all, he was handsome and highly skilled, and was considered to be a person of high status and great prestige in the First Xuanmen.
If he was obsessed with power, then the former leader of the First Xuanmen Sect would have been considered to have immense power.
It's understandable that a woman admired him and had his likeness carved into a jade pendant, which she wore all the time. The only thing that doesn't make sense is that this Lady Mang seems to have a close relationship with the King of Nanzhao. Would the King of Nanzhao allow her to wear a jade image of another man?
While the father and son were talking, Yao Yutong had already taken another careful look at Yin Changxing.
His features matched the image of the jade pendant in her mind, and she said with certainty, "I am sure I am not mistaken, the jade pendant is carved in your likeness."
She found it quite strange at the time that a woman would wear a jade statue of a man on her body. In their view, it was a very shameful thing.
“I found the jade pendant by chance. I picked it up and looked at it. Then Madam Mang came over and said it was hers. I returned the jade pendant to her and saw her tie it around her waist. She just looked at me and didn’t say anything.”
"But when we got to the tea party, she served me that cup of tea."
Yao Yutong trembled as she spoke, it was hard to tell whether it was from anger or fear.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Yao held her hand tightly, crying with a mixture of anger and fear, "If that's the case, then my Tongtong found her things and kindly returned them to her. Why would she want to harm my Tongtong?"
Yin Changxing asked, "You call her Madam Mang, do you know her full name? Which 'Mang' is it?"
Yao Yutong shook her head and said, "I don't know her name. Everyone calls her Madam Mang. I asked the older sister next to me, and she said it's the Mang from Mangcao (misgrowth).
Yin Changxing fell silent, carefully recalling whether any woman with that character in her name had appeared in his memories from his past lives.
At this moment, Madam Yao was only worried about her daughter's health. Although Yin Changxing hadn't finished speaking, she had already understood what he meant.
Yutong is a girl, and she's not even married yet, but her body is already damaged like this. Will she be able to have children in the future?
This is what Yao is most worried about right now. If it's just that she has lost a lot of weight, she can slowly recover.
But what the master just said is that it affects vitality and lifespan, and that she may have difficulty conceiving in the future. So, isn't her daughter ruined?
Yao turned to Doctor Fu, slipped and fell to the ground, knelt down, and cried, begging Doctor Fu to save Yao Yutong.
Doctor Fu quickly instructed the maid to help her up.
He sighed heavily. It wasn't that he was unwilling to treat Yao Yutong, but it was simply beyond his capabilities.
He looked at Yin Yunting, his mouth moving as if he wanted to ask if their Xuanmen had any solutions, but Yin Yunting shook his head slightly, indicating that he should not ask about this at this time.
After all, they haven't figured out what happened to Yao Yutong yet. Right now, it seems like Yao Yutong is a victim who doesn't know anything about these things. Even the grape ghost on her body was accidentally forced down her throat by a cup of tea, and even when she drank the tea, it wasn't her choice.
However, before the matter is thoroughly investigated, it remains questionable. Yao Yutong is still one of the suspects who framed the Crown Prince. At most, they can only save her life. Why would they bother to cure her completely?
Besides, it really is difficult.
The lost vitality and the wasted lifespan cannot be easily recovered.
Yin Yunting didn't want his senior sister to exhaust her spiritual energy for a stranger on her wedding day.
Thinking about what had happened to them, and knowing that it had occurred on the day of the Prince of Jin's wedding, they knew they must have offended the Prince of Jin badly. The mother and daughter embraced and wept bitterly.
Suddenly, Madam Yao remembered Duan Fan and looked at Yin Yunting, saying, "When we went to Nanzhao, we met Madam Mang. It was Duan Fan who took us there."
“Otherwise, we know very few people in Nanzhao. Even when we go back to my parents’ home, my relationship with them is very distant. They don’t take us to other banquets. But Duan Fan, after we arrived, called me ‘aunt’ very affectionately and Tongtong ‘cousin’. He said he was afraid we would be bored in Nanzhao every day, so he would take us to some banquets to meet some people. So, that banquet was actually arranged through Duan Fan.”
