“You are too kind, if there’s a chance, we can exchange skills.”

“Do you have tnow? Shall we go and exchange our skills now?”

“Sorry, I have to buy sthings for my second sister. I’m not free at the moment.”

“How about this – 1 know the capital well. 1 can take you to buy what you need, and we can save tto exchange skills afterward?”

With Yang Zhenzhen, a local, leading the way, they quickly purchased what they needed, sent the items home, and then went to Yang’s Porcelain Shop.

In the General’s Mansion.

Wu Yaqing entered Lu Yichen’s room with a tray, in a good mood, “Dinner time!”

Lu Yichen, holding a book, turned his head to look at Wu Yaqing, “Thank you for taking care ofthese days. My wounds are healed. You don’t need to bringfood and medicine tomorrow.”

Wu Yaqing paused, “Okay, 1 won’t ctomorrow.”

The atmosphere in the room slowly changed, becoming somewhat awkward, tense, and indescribable.

Lu Yichen, enduring the pain in his body, got out of bed and sat at the table to eat slowly.

Wu Yaqing stood there, staring at Lu Yichen. In fact, she didn’t quite understand her feelings for Lu Yichen. She was somewhat annoyed with him, yet wanted to see him. When she heard he was injured, she worried about him and wanted to take care of him…

Sighing inwardly, she said, “I’ll go back first, eat slowly.”

With that, she left.

When Lu Yichen thought of the letter he received today, he slowly clenched his fists, and waves of suppressed killing intent grew in his heart.

Wu Yaqing ran all the way back to the Chu Residence.

Upon returning, she went to the courtyard where Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao were staying. Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong were still there, giving last-minute advice to the two children. She entered and sat down quietly.

The four of them looked at her, puzzled.

Wu Yaqing was usually the most lively and carefree girl among them. Her current melancholic appearance was unusual.

Chu Qingzhi asked with concern, “Yaqing, what’s wrong?”

Wu Yaqing looked up, only then realizing everyone was watching her, and hastily said, “No, nothing.”

Chu Xuyuan said, “Sister Yaqing, if there’s something, just tell us.”

Wu Yaqing blinked her slightly sour eyes, “Lu Yichen askednot to take care of him tomorrow.”

The few of them were confused.

“Do you needto ask him why?” A good friend, all alone, finally showing interest in a girl, he felt obliged to help. However, he found it strange, as Lu Yichen didn’t seem to dislike Wu Yaqing. Why would he say such a thing?

Wu Yaqing wanted to say no need, but changed her mind at the last moment, “Then… ask him, please. 1 feel something is amiss.”

“I’ll let you know once I find out.”

“Thank you.” Wu Yaqing felt as if she had eaten a bitter gourd, bitter and hard to swallow.

Under the moonlight and twinkling stars, the servants helped clean up the dinner utensils, and everyone was enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.

However, this peaceful atmosphere was soon shattered by the sound of urgent footsteps. Ren Buqing, leading a team of officers, arrived at the Chu Residence with an unprecedented serious expression.

Chu Qingzhi, upon seeing him, changed her direction and approached Ren Buqing, “What happened?”

Ren Buqing spoke with difficulty, “Bei Chunlu is dead!”

This news was shocking. Chu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, “Bei Chunlu is dead?”

“Miss Chu, I heard you have medical skills. Could you please cand see how he died?”

“Can’t the coroner find out?”

“Yes, Bei Chunlu was lying in his bed, just like he was sleeping. If it weren’t for the lack of a pulse, everyone would have thought he was asleep.”

“Let’s go and take a look.” She decided to bring her third brother along to gain sexperiences.

Chu Qingzhi informed her family and, along with Chu Qingning, headed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Chu Xujin and Ge Lihua didn’t return hfor dinner; they ate with the officers at the Ministry of Justice canteen. Chu Xujin, with his naturally outgoing personality, quickly becpopular with everyone.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was cordoned off by the staff, allowing only Ministry of Justice personnel to enter and exit.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs paced anxiously at the entrance. Bei Chunlu’s death in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs put the primary responsibility on him. If the killer wasn’t found, he would have to bear the blame.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead and looking forward, he wondered why they hadn’t arrived yet.

The deputy minister walked over. “Sir, the Chu residence is sdistance away from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It will take stto rush over.”

The minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not say anything. He was already so anxious that he felt like he was on fire. He was afraid that he would spit fire the moment he opened his mouth.

Finally, hurried footsteps could be heard.

When the minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs saw Chu Qingzhi and the rest coming over, he was as happy as if he had encountered rain after a long drought. He hurriedly went up to them.

Chu Qingzhi was probably the only person without an official position who could make all the officials lower their status and go forward to welcher.

“Miss Chu, you’re finally here.”

Chu Qingzhi didn’t know the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so Ren Buqing hurriedly introduced them to her. After hearing this, she nodded. “Let’s go to Bei Chunlu’s room to take a look first.”

“Miss Chu, this way please.” The minister from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs personally led the way.

Outside Bei Chunlu’s room was Bei Chunyi, whose face had turned a little livid. There was a team of soldiers standing around him. On the surface, they were protecting him, but in reality, they were restricting his movements.

Although they were biological brothers, they both wanted the throne. There were many brothers who had killed each other for the throne. Now, he was the most suspicious.

Chu Qingzhi glanced at him and walked into the room.

The room showed no signs of struggle. A wine jug and a half-filled wine cup were on the table. A chair had been moved, and the doors and windows were tightly shut. The bed curtains had a tear, one shoe was covered, and the other was placed normally. The room was a bit messy. Bei Chunlu was lying on the bed, his expression peaceful, hands crossed over his chest…Read Web s Online Free - Fire

Chu Qingzhi asked the coroner, “Did you find anything unusual when you arrived?”

The coroner thought carefully, “No, when I arrived, he was covered with a blanket, just like he was sleeping.”

Chu Qingzhi put on a pair of gloves from her bag, then called Chu Xujin over to start the autopsy.

“Third brother, before examining the body, check for external injuries. It’s easier to see on the body, especially the head…”

As she explained, even the coroner, who had doubted Chu Qingzhi’s skills, surreptitiously moved closer to listen, occasionally showing an enlightened expression, which was quite amusing.

Chu Xujin listened carefully, trying to remember every word Chu Qingzhi said.

After examining the external injuries, Chu Xujin said, “Fifth sister, I have prepared autopsy tools. Do you need them?”

Truly professional, even bringing autopsy tools to the capital when coming here to attend a wedding. Chu Qingzhi replied, “Not for now. I’ll try to determine the cause of death from the current state. Opening up the body would be too gruesome..”
