As usual, only Fan Mu and Lingyun entered General Murong's room. Susu felt that since she had not participated in it before, she might as well not disturb their thoughts. Therefore, she stayed outside the door and looked at Sikong, the person with crooked thoughts.

Compared to the previous one, the overall layout of the two rooms did not change much. It was just that the room where the concubine died was a little messy.

”It seems that no one has been here before. Other than the bed that seemed to have been in a passive state before, everything else seems to have been placed at the beginning.” Seeing that the interior of the house was so tidy, Ling Yun could not help but exclaim.

”It's not like that. There are people who have stayed here for a long time, and they seem to have cried for a long time.”

”What do you mean by that?” Lingyun shot a puzzled look towards the direction Fan Mu was pointing at, and saw the white, granular crystal on the corner of the table. He couldn't help but be startled. ”This is?”

”That's right, this should be a stain of salt. If I'm not wrong, it should be caused by the Concubine's tears, and they must have been crying for a long time,” Fan Mu was at a loss for words.

”Are you saying that the deceased imperial concubine has been here before?” Although Lingyun's question was somewhat tacit, it pointed to a crucial point. This was General Murong's resting place, so why would the imperial concubine be able to enter?

”That's right. If I'm right, this should be a sad story. Her pearl should be hidden here as well. Even if I die, I don't want its luster to be obscured by the dust,” Fan Mu silently said.

Although he still had doubts in his heart, Fan Mu was well aware of the gist of it. Now that he thought about it, it was no wonder Lord Xing had said, ”It's not that we don't want to report, the time is not right yet.” Could it be that Lord Xing already knew the truth behind this case? As he said this, Fan Mu couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

”What's wrong with you?” Seeing that Fan Mu was not in a good condition, Lingyun hurried to his side and patted his shoulder, bringing him back to reality.

”It's fine. Oh right, leave this to me. Brother Yun, please help me investigate some matters. Although I don't want to say this, I must warn you to be careful of Lord Punishment.”

It was a good thing that Ling Yun was a first-class person. Otherwise, he would have definitely shouted out loud. However, he still took a few steps back in shock, and asked in disbelief, ”What do you mean by that, could it be?”

”That's right,” Fan Mu agreed. He then went to Lingyun and whispered a few words to him. Lingyun was stunned and nodded. He pushed open the door and left without waiting for anyone to stop him.

”Little Mu, what's going on with Lingyun? Why are he in such a hurry?” Susu asked in confusion.

”It's okay, I told him to go get some things, he'll be back soon,” he said as he closed the door again. This time, he walked in the direction of the bed, because that was the only place where there was any obvious disturbance.
