Lu Ziqing frowned deeply, feeling embarrassed. Concubine Li was the emperor's most favored concubine, and she liked the harem, even the empress would give her accolades. In the absence of conclusive evidence, if he rashly testified that she was the murderer, wouldn't it cause him a lot of trouble?

Zhao Ling also knew that this matter was particularly difficult. It was not appropriate to rashly testify that Concubine Li was the murderer just based on these two clues.

In the end, Lu Ziqing decided to temporarily suppress these two clues. The most urgent task was to first determine the identity of the palace maid. And Li Fei was undoubtedly the biggest suspect in this case, but her investigation could be carried out in secret.

After entering the palace yesterday, she first had to deal with the members of the royal family, and then she was forced to treat Emperor Ming. She stayed awake in the Funing Hall all night, and then she encountered a murder case early the following morning and was decreed to investigate the murder and carry out an autopsy. 

Zhao Ling's spirit had always been in a state of high pressure. At this moment, on the carriage returning to the Duke's Mansion, nestled in Meng Yuan's arms, as soon as she relaxed, she felt a little drowsy.

Another reason was that she apeared to have become more and more accustomed to Meng Yuan's embrace. As long as she was held by him, she felt inexplicably at ease, and naturally fell asleep easily.

When she woke up, she found that the carriage had stopped.

"A-Yuan, are we there yet?" She rubbed her eyes and sat up sleepily from his arms.

Seeing her sleepy and dazed appearance, Meng Yuan's belly felt hot, and he couldn't help taking her into his arms again, whispering in her ear, "Ling'er, are you tempting me? "

Zhao Ling was keenly aware of the change in his body, and her face flushed, struggling to say, "Meng Yuan, you rascal!"

Was he trying to sleep with her on the carriage now? Did this guy have any morals?

A low, deep and slightly teasing laughter sounded above her head. Afterwards, Meng Yuan let go of her reluctantly, pecked her lips lightly, and said softly, "We're at your home. You can go back now."

If it went on like this, he was afraid that he would really be unable to hold on to it and sleep with her on the carriage. Heaven knew how much he longed for her.

Only when Ling'er was by his side would he feel that his heart was calm and warm.

His Ling'er. 

Whether she was concentrating and earnest during an autopsy, lazy and confused when she just woke up, frowning slightly when she was thinking about a problem, or smiling gently when comforting him, all of them were so impressive and moving to him. He was deeply infatuated with her, unable to extricate himself.

Zhao Ling lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, but was startled by the scene in front of her.

She saw that all the people in the Zhao's mansion were standing at the door in unison, looking at her with different expressions. This includes Zhao Yi'an, Cui Shi, Zhao Gaoxuan, Zhao Mingxuan, and several other concubines, and of course the servants in the house.

What was happening here? Was there a big fight here?

Seeing Zhao Jiang standing at the front with an ugly face, she had to step up and call. "Father." Then she called out to Cui Shi, who was standing behind with an even more ugly face. "Mother."

Cui Shi's vicious eyes shot at her like a knife. Zhao Jiang just snorted lightly, ignored her, and said respectfully to the carriage of the Xuan Wangfu that turned around and left. "Respectfully send Xuan Wang."

After watching the carriage go away, he glared at Zhao Ling angrily, and said, "Hmph, you are really good at this, aren't you?" 

After speaking, he turned around and walked away, thinking.

Yesterday, the Third Prince sent someone to inform him that he wanted to keep Zhao Ling in the palace to serve the sick emperor. Today, King Xuan personally brought her to the door, and even made him wait at the door for so long. 

When did his daughter become so difficult for him?

Also, why didn't he remember that his eldest daughter had studied medicine. He heard that the emperor had been ill for several days, and even the imperial physician was helpless. How could she cure the emperor's acute illness so easily?

Cui's resentful and jealous eyes shot at Zhao Ling again, and then followed Zhao Jiang back to the mansion.

Zhao Mingxuan looked at her with bright eyes, smiling as he was about to go up to chat with Zhao Ling, but Sun shi just took him away. Zhao Gaoxuan turned her head away with a look of hatred and indignation.

The rest of the concubine and servants all bade Zhao Ling good day, and went back to their houses.

Mother Xu, Lu zhu, and Qing Luo came up to meet her, looking at her with smiles, and the expressions on their faces were very heart-warming and interesting.

Mother Xu took Zhao Ling's hand, and said comfortingly, "Miss, seeing that King Xuan is so considerate to you, this old slave is relieved."

"That's right, Miss, Lord Xuan is really kind to you." Lu Zhu took her hand with inexplicable excitement on her face.

Zhao Ling was at a loss for words for a few seconds. Then, with a puzzled expression on her face, and asked, "What the hell is going on, what are everyone doing standing at the door?"

Lv Zhu said proudly: "Prince Xuan brought you back to the mansion in person, that's a lot of face. Of course, your father and stepmother would come out to greet him. But the lady was still sleeping at the time, and the prince forbade us to wake you up, saying that we had to wait for the lady. They could greet him when you wake up. If the miss didn't wake up on time, the lord and wife would naturally have to wait at the door all the time!"

Thinking of the scene just now, Lu Zhu felt happy, and on a whim, she even imitated the tone of Chang Dong when he conveyed King Xuan's order.

"Miss, that's what the dead-face guard said just now," Lu Zhu hummed, cleared his throat, and began to imitate him.

"The lord ordered that everyone should come out to greet him, but not to disturb the princess. He'll talk about everything when the princess wakes up."

When Lu Zhu said this, she laughed happily again, "Miss, you didn't see the expression on your old man's wife's face at that time. Haha, it was so funny!"

Indeed, it was so!
