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.

"This is ?" Lifting the bed's light sheets, Fan Mu's eyes were attracted by the little red mark on the bed. Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the mark of a woman's lips, and without a doubt, this was an ironclad proof that the concubine had stayed in this room before. But why would he let others discover that he was messing with her, could it be that her guess was wrong, that she wasn't protecting someone, but protecting General Murong? Or someone had stolen her sanity.

"There are definitely hidden secrets, but I guess only the two of them know," Fan Mu muttered to himself. No one knew who he was referring to.

After getting off the bed, Fan Mu walked around the table again and again, muttering to himself, "Why are you messing around here, why ?" It seemed that Fan Mu was still puzzled, because the lip gloss didn't seem to have been left there on purpose. On the contrary, it looked as if it had been accidentally touched by someone.

Glancing at the position of the sheet, Fan Mu's eyes were suddenly attracted by a sewn area, and he could no longer suppress his excitement. He rushed forward, his fingers lightly sliding on the sheet twice, and a spherical object immediately appeared under his hand.

The decisive evidence had already appeared, so Fan Mu didn't dare to be careless. He hastily opened the door to let the burly man check it out, and the more he handed it over, the better it was to avoid being found out. It would be troublesome, and after the patrolling men opened the bed and took out the pearl as evidence, the person the burly man met also arrived.

"Who are they?" Fan Mu couldn't help but ask when he saw so many people arrive in such a short amount of time.

"Oh, have you forgotten the people I told you about?" The burly man introduced them one by one and assured Fan Mu that the four of them wouldn't be lying.

"Ah Kuang, this was sent by the Punishment Lord, how are they children?" One of the young women asked in surprise. She clearly felt that she had been tricked by this strong man called Ah Kuang.

"Ehh, even though they are small, their brains aren't ordinary. Just now, they even discovered a conclusive evidence, although we don't know what it was for." The stocky man was speechless. He walked to Fan Mu's side and whispered a few words in his ear, telling him to ask.

"Very well," Fan Mu nodded, walked up to the women, and was the first to ask them, "When Imperial Concubine's death was presumed to be the night before, I don't know if you found anything strange or if it was some strange action in the house.

"Little brother, at that time, big sister had already gone back. I probably went back home at Hai Shui hour, but at night, when I was on duty, I saw General Murong's strange actions." The woman said thoughtfully while supporting her head with her right hand.

"What strange action? Please speak your mind," Fan Mu was slightly overjoyed as he continued to ask.

"Let me see, at that time, General Murong seemed to be wearing a tight suit, and he left the room as if he were going to his concubine's room. I was on my way to deliver water to King Dongping, and I brushed past him." The young woman told him everything she knew, although she didn't think it would be very useful.

"Then did you see what he looked like, or where you could be sure he was General Murong?" From the information provided by the woman, it was difficult for Fan Mu to identify the person in the room, but this just proved to be the truth of his conjecture.
