Chapter 104: Secret Investigation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the way back, Gu Yu couldn’t help but ask Ning Yue, “My dear disciple, the cause of the illness you just analyzed has made me confused. Can you tell me about it? I’m also studying this problem.”

“Master, let me tell you this. There are chimneys in the kitchen at home. This chimney can be compared to something that can regulate one’s mood. Bad emotions from the outside world are like smoke passing through a chimney. Once the chimney’s exit is blocked, the smoke cannot be released.”

“Master, think about it. If the smoke can’t be released, what will happen to the chimney and stove?”

“It’ll block up. The smoke will flow backward, just like how a person will fall sick if their emotions aren’t adjusted properly. Looks like Liang Li is the problem. Now that you mention it, I understand. Disciple, how do you know so much?”

Ning Yue was stunned for a moment. She had been in a hurry to save someone just now and hadn’t thought too much about it. Now that Gu Yu had suspected her, what should she do?

Suddenly, she recalled Gu Yu saying that he had studied this problem.

“Master, I’ve seen some of your notes in your medicinal room. They mention this. I think all the problems mentioned in Master’s notes are very impressive.”

Gu Yu didn’t notice that Ning Yue had changed the topic. Instead, he was so happy that his beard stood on end. “Don’t you know who your master is? I’m a famous divine doctor. The questions I ask are naturally all amazing.”

Seeing Gu Yu like this, Ning Yue heaved a sigh of relief.

Two days after they returned, Li Lian brought the deed over.

“Thank you, both of you. Ever since I cooked according to the recipe you wrote and used the medicine prescribed by the divine doctor, my wife has recovered quite a bit. She hasn’t gone crazy, nor has she been in a low mood ever again.”

“As a thank-you gift, I’ll give you this house. I’ve brought the deed. You can go to the government to transfer the ownership immediately,” Li Lian said with a smile.

Ning Yue looked at him in surprise. She had once asked around about the property prices. Even the smaller ones cost a few hundred taels of silver, not to mention that this place was so big. It would cost at least a thousand taels of silver.

Li Lian gave it away just like that. It seemed that he loved his wife very much.

“This house will be given to you as a thank-you gift. I know that a divine doctor’s prescription is hard to come by, so I’m the one who profited,” Li Lian said sincerely.

This house was a death contract. The death contract meant that whether the deed was in place or not, this house belonged to the owner. No one but the owner himself had the right to dispose of it.

If the owner of the house wanted to give it away or sell it, he had to go to the government to transfer the ownership.

Since Li Lian was so straightforward, Ning Yue followed him to the government office.

The capital was indeed the land of the emperor. The officials were very efficient and quickly settled the matter.

Holding the deed, Ning Yue felt extremely emotional.

“Miss Ning, I want to take my wife around. I won’t be returning to the capital for the time being. Take care.”

After leaving with these strange words, Li Lian hurriedly left.

Ning Yue looked at Li Lian’s back in confusion. His words were like the instructions of an elder or a good friend who was about to leave for a long trip.

Ning Yue shook her head. Perhaps she was hallucinating.

Uncle Su had already investigated. There was nothing wrong with this person.

Ning Yue shopped for a while and bought some things before returning home.

When she returned home, she realized that Jiang Ying was already waiting for her.

“Why are you here?” Ning Yue asked.

The emperor had just woken up and wanted to investigate the poison. Shouldn’t he be in the palace at this time?

“I have something to tell you. After Uncle Emperor woke up, he ordered a secret investigation of the general’s residence.”

Ning Yue was stunned. “Why is he investigating the general’s residence?”

“The news of the General’s wife having an affair with his brother was discovered and spread. Uncle Emperor learned that the General’s wife was a concubine, and there were no records of her in the archives. Coupled with the poisoning incident, Uncle Emperor decided to investigate thoroughly.”

“Then why the secret investigation?” Ning Yue didn’t understand. If it was just a secret investigation, they shouldn’t be able to find anything, right?

“Uncle Emperor thinks that the General’s Residence is plotting a rebellion, but this crime is too serious. General Zhenbei has never made any mistakes, and has even made many contributions. If we investigate this small problem, it will make people uneasy. That’s why we’re investigating in secret.”
