It could be seen that General Fan and the others in the concubine’s mausoleum did not have good intentions.

“Alright, you should go to the palace and report the situation first. I’ll be there in a moment,” Rong Zhan said as he watched the two of them leave the residence.

The two of them quickly entered the palace and told Rong Xiaotian all the information they had obtained after opening the coffin and examining the corpse.

After Rong Xiaotian heard this, he was in a rage and immediately arranged for Gu Qingxue and Director Wu to thoroughly investigate this matter. No matter what, they had to find the true murderer who had murdered Beauty Yin and the child in her belly.

Rong Zhan followed closely behind and informed Rong Xiaotian that he had already saved the palace maid who had been serving Beauty Yin at that time.

In the imperial study, Rong Xiaotian’s eyes lit up after hearing the news from Rong Zhan, “In other words, that maidservant knows the truth. As long as she speaks, the truth will be revealed?”

By right, Madam Zou was an abandoned child who could not be used, but Rong Zhan still wanted to bring her out. What was the reason?

With a smile on his face, Rong Zhan cupped his hands and said, “Reporting to Your Majesty, this maidservant is suffering from a chronic illness and her mind is not clear enough, so she still needs a few days of treatment. I and Doctor Gu have discussed and agreed to let Doctor Gu take full responsibility for taking care of the maidservant. When the maidservant’s chronic illness is cured, the truth will be revealed.”

Gu Qingxue had never agreed to such a thing. She looked at Rong Zhan and understood his real plan.

What a good move to invite the emperor into the jar. Rong Zhan was determined to make Prince Heng panic and force him to take action.

When Gu Qingxue saw Rong Zhan’s eyes meet hers, she instantly understood what he meant. “Reporting to Your Majesty, regarding the treatment of the maidservants, this subject is afraid that this subject alone is not competent enough. I hope that Your Majesty can ask the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital to assist us.”

“Doctor Gu, since you’ve spoken, it’s obvious that you already have a suitable candidate in mind. May I know which imperial physician is it?”

“Naturally it’s the head of the imperial hospital, Imperial Physician Qin. When I was treating the plague, I had a lot of contact with Imperial Physician Qin and we can be considered to know each other.” When Gu Qingxue spoke, she lowered her eyes to hide the cold smile that flashed across her eyes.

Rong Xiaotian did not care about these small details. “Alright, then pass on my decree and let Imperial Physician Qin assist Doctor Gu in her treatment. Judge Wu, you are also responsible for guarding Beauty Yin’s body. You can’t let her soul be restless in the netherworld.”

“Yes.” Judge Wu cupped his hands and agreed.

It was getting late, so the three of them split up. Judge Wu went to settle the corpse, while Gu Qingxue and Rong Zhan left the palace.

By the time Gu Qingxue returned to the Gu residence, it was already late at night. She did not want to disturb the three little ones’ rest, but she accidentally found out from the maidservant that the three little ones still had not rested at this hour.

This made Gu Qingxue look at her maid, Lil’ Cui, and ask, “Why aren’t they resting at this hour? Could it be that they are feeling unwell?”

Lil’ Cui smiled and said, “Eldest Miss, you’re thinking too much. The Young

Masters and Young Miss are preparing for the school test on the 29th of December. Ever since you left, they have been studying hard every night, even during the day. They’re all very serious.”

Gu Qingxue felt a wave of relief in her heart. “Then I shouldn’t disturb them. Take me there to have a look first. Remember to be careful and don’t disturb them.”

“Yes,” Lil Cui replied, then quietly led Gu Qingxue toward the study..
