Chapter 248: Was She Seduced?

Translator: EndlessFantasv Translation    Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Luo Jin’an was going to the capital because of the plague, and Su Binglan thought her prescription might work since Baili Jinghua came from there.

Baili Jinghua’s sickness was related to the plague, so Su Binglan figured her prescription could cure those people. Nonetheless, it was better to be over-prepared than under-prepared.

Su Binglan did not ask why there was a plague in the capital and why Luo Jin’an wanted to go because she respected him. Su Binglan would only help her husband prepare whatever he needed for his journey.

Luo Jin’an looked down at the prescription under the moonlight, and his expression changed slightly. “Do you know about the situation in the capital?”

Su Binglan explained, “Jinghua came from there and fell ill just outside of Hundred Herb Hospital, so I gave her a checkup. She showed signs of the plague at that time. Honestly, it was more like she had gotten poisoned.

“The poison’s symptoms resembled the plague, but Jinghua immediately recovered after drinking the medicine I prescribed.”

Su Bing]_an did not mention this to her family for fear the villagers would think Baili Jinghua was contagious. Still, Baili Jinghua’s symptoms were mild, and she was okay after drinking the medicine, so she was not contagious.

“Thank you,” Luo Jin’an sincerely thanked his wife, even though he did not know how to thank her properly. “This prescription means a lot to the people of the capital and me.”

Even though that was what Luo Jin’an said, the prescription was much more important since many factors were involved in this incident, including Dingzhou’s stability.

The war would spread to Dingzhou if the capital had internal problems. As time went on, even the town would become unstable.

Luo Jin’an did not want the war to spread to Tenghe Town or Su Teng Village because the land was pure. He knew he had to protect it. However, he could not tell his wife about it.

Su Binglan nodded and said, “I know it does. I put some clothes, food, and medicine in the bag I packed for you. The medicine’s dosage is on the bottle, so use it if you feel unwell.”

She had taken the time to make these medicines to cure common colds and fevers, gastrointestinal discomforts, and headaches. She had concocted them into pills using medicinal herbs.

Her concoction method was time-consuming and laborious, so she needed a lot of time to prepare them. Still, she could not make as much as she wanted to. Regardless, Su Binglan put them all into her husband’s bag.

“The most crucial pill is the one to suppress your cold poison. You must take one if you feel unwell.”

Luo Jin’an listened to his wife’s words, and his expression softened. He looked at her tenderly and said, “Yes, I’ll remember all your instructions.”

It had been a long time since Luo Jin’an felt the niceness of having someone pack his luggage. At that moment, he felt a ripple in his heart.

He was already handsome and resembled someone who had just walked out of a poem or painting under the moonlight. His gentle eyes were full of emotion, yet he could be highly aggressive. Su Binglan even thought she might be hallucinating.

She broke the silence by softly saying, “The horses are in the yard. You can take one of them with you.”

Luo Jin’an nodded.

After a moment of hesitation, Su Binglan blinked and looked at Luo Jin’an. “Do you need me to come?

Since Luo Jin’an was still weak, Su Binglan wondered if he would face any issues along the way. Her worried expression was apparent.

Luo Jin’an said with thin red lips, “I’ll be okay. You should take care of yourself at home.”

The couple was standing at the door when a cold wind blew in from the outside, causing Su Binglan i s hair to flutter.

She had just woken up, so her silky black hair draped over her shoulders. When the wind blew, her hair gently fluttered as a few strands even brushed past her face.

Luo Jin’an raised his hand and gently tidied up his wife’s messy hair. Then Su Binglan’s whole body tensed up as she wondered why she felt so scared, yet her heart felt soft and tender. Was Luo Jin’an seducing her?

However, Su Binglan realized she might be overthinking after looking at her husband’s serious expression. Regardless, Luo Jin’an’s words just now were gentle as the night sky seemed calmer.

Su Binglan said smilingly, “Okay. You must take care of yourself too. Look, you have a carrier pigeon, so you can send me a message if anything bad happens.”

Luo Jin’an said, “Okay.”

The couple looked at each other in silence before Luo Jin’an said, “I should go. Umm, your parents…

He was worried that his in-laws would have doubts if he were gone for too long, especially since he had not thought of a reason yet. Still, Luo Jin’an could not lie to anyone who treated him sincerely.

Su Binglan knew what her husband was worried about, so she reassured him, “Don’t worry. I’ll tell them that Mr. Kong has arranged for you to go to the capital to do some school work and that you’ll be home soon.”

There were also schools in the capital, so it was usual for there to be exchange and learning between schools.

Still, Su Binglan thought her parents would not have any doubts. “Don’t worry. I’ll explain everything to them.”

She untied the horse and handed the rope to Luo Jin’an. Then she opened the courtyard door.

Luo Jin’an walked out of the courtyard with the horse in tow. Immediately after, he got on the horse, and Su Binglan’s expression changed.

‘He must be special since his way of mounting a horse seems very professional. i

After mounting the horse, Luo Jin’an turned around and gave his wife a deep 100K as sne wavea ar rum. only tnen ala LUO Jin•an leave astnae tne norse.

Su Binglan fell into deep thought when she saw her husband’s horse riding skills. After a short while, Luo Jin’an was no longer in Su Binglan’s sight as she returned to the house.

However, her heart felt heavy when she thought of how Luo Jin’an would not be home for a while. Su Binglan looked absent-minded and suddenly realized she felt concerned.

When Su Binglan entered the house, she saw Baili Jinghua wide awake. She whispered, “You’re still awake?”

Baili Jinghua asked, “Did he leave?

Although Su Binglan heard what Baili Jinghua said, she felt something was not quite right. She asked, “Do you know him or something?”

Baili Jinghua did not want to lie to the person who saved and helped her, but she also knew how special Major General Wei’s identity was. If anyone discovered he was alive, many would want to kill him.

She nodded and said, “Yes, we knew each other once. Still, I’m sorry I can’t tell you who he is. It’s not that I dont trust you, but many things are involved in this matter. If more people know about him, the more unsafe it will get. I-If you want to know, he should tell you personally.”

Su Binglan nodded. “Thank you.”

She knew Baili Jinghua said those things because Baili Jinghua trusted Luo Jin’an. Su Binglan could only roughly guess that Luo Jin’an was not an ordinary man because of the wounds on his body.

“He’s going to the battlefield, isnt he?”
