Chapter 1317 - 180, Frost Pavilion
Hall of Salvation.
Lady Wang placed her sleeping son on the bed, then tiptoed into her husband’s study. As expected, Wang Dahai sat motionless at his desk with his father’s letters before him.
"Ah!" With a sigh, Lady Wang pushed open the door, took hold of Wang Dahai’s somewhat cool hand, and whispered, "Linlin is a good child, my dear. Haven’t you long suspected that the boy knows medical arts? Now that the truth is out, why..."
"Yes, I did suspect she knew medicine, but..." Wang Dahai’s eyes flickered, his expression a mix of sorrow and excitement. "I never imagined her background would be so remarkable. And, Madam, haven’t I told you? I always felt Linlin’s approach to medicine and writing prescriptions was eerily familiar."
Lady Wang nodded and sat down next to Wang Dahai. "You’ve said that her prescriptions are bold, at times even reckless, reminiscent of a friend of your father’s."
Wang Dahai looked at his wife and curved his lips slightly. "The one who knows me best is my own wife."
Lady Wang blushed with a shy smile, but her eyes soon widened in shock as she looked at him: "My dear, the way you just talked about Linlin, could it be..."
"Ha." Wang Dahai finally could not hold back a laugh, gripping Lady Wang’s hand tighter. "Indeed, nothing can be hidden from you, my dear. Exactly. Elder Zhen has not been seen in the Capital city since leaving the palace, and now that I’ve finally met someone so similar in conduct, how could I let this chance slip? If I’m not mistaken, Linlin must be Elder Zhen’s apprentice."
