”Lang, why are you lying here? Quickly get up. If you can't get up …” What should mother do … ”
The noble official's eyebrows creased as he looked at the man dressed in the Imperial Physician's uniform. ”Imperial Physician Chen, what's going on?”
Imperial Physician Chen was troubled. ”This madam's child slipped and fell into the water. Please ask this subject to treat him. However, the child fell into the water too long ago. An hour ago …” This subject is powerless. ”
No, my son will not leave me like this! ”You lied to me, he's right by my side, wuu wuu!
Madame Du's eyes turned red with rage. She was about to pounce on Imperial Physician Chen when Du Menglin immediately stopped her, but her random movements knocked her aside and she almost fell to the ground.
Lu Musheng hurried over to support her. ”Madam, are you alright?”
Du Menglin looked at the fallen Madam Du and shook her head slightly, ”I'm fine.”
”No one wishes for such a thing to happen. Since Madam can't persuade him otherwise, let's get Vice Minister Du over here as soon as possible.”
”Lord Lu Shaoqing and Madam Lu truly love each other dearly. Compared to us being brothers, General Lu is heartless towards his wife and direct daughter. I heard that Miss Lu's days at the mansion are not easy, and that she's even inferior to his little sister Shu?”
Lu Jinjian rolled his eyes at Anubis as a response to Anubis' provocation and then looked at the corpse on the ground.
Imperial Physician Chen said the child died an hour ago when he fell into the water, but the corpse's face was bloated and it was hard to make out the child's appearance.
Even if it was summer, it wouldn't be so fast to be soaked like this. Besides, it was spring, and the marks on the corpses' necks …
He looked around at the railings of the lotus pond. It was still early in the summer, and only the last lotus flower and the new lotus leaf were standing in the pond.
”Doctor Chen, is there really an hour? Madam Du had long since sent people to search. This place wasn't considered a very quiet place, so how could children not cry out for help when they fell into the water? How could they not hear her cry for help? ”And his face …”
”Is this young miss doubting my medical skills?”
Imperial Physician Chen said angrily, ”I don't know if he called for help, but I do know that an hour ago, he died in a completely different way. He suffered an impact, so it should have been a concave rock.”
”My daughter doesn't have any doubts about Imperial Physician Chen's medical skills, she's only slightly interested in them. She's just curious about them, so if you've offended her, please forgive her.”
Imperial Physician Chen harrumphed. ”With regards to the trauma, Miss can take a look at the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, Theory of Transferring Essence to one's Qi. Jade Machine Meaning, Scroll 18.”
Eunuch An roughly understood the situation and instructed a few eunuchs to take care of it while he led a group of people to report back to the Emperor.
However, when they arrived at Jade Moon Hall, they heard the imperial guards' leader say that not only had there been a murder in Jade Moon Hall, but that the grand imperial concubine had also lost something.
Cui Fu pursed his lips, as if he had already predicted his own unhappy future. Forcing himself to smile, he followed the noble father to the palace. Su Xing Yuan and Lu Mo Sheng also hurried to catch up.
