Chapter 580: Will definitely investigate to the end
Su Lingyue sat in front of Xiao Yu's bed, holding a travelogue that Qin Wanning had just given her, and read it to Xiao Yu.
As she was reading, she became distracted and stared blankly at the mattress on the bed with the book in her hand.
Seeing her lost in thought, Xiao Yu coughed twice, panting softly and asked, "Yue'er, what happened?"
Su Lingyue has been a little absent-minded since she came in, and he saw everything.
Hearing Xiao Yu's voice, Su Lingyue suddenly came back to her senses and finally figured out where the uneasiness in her heart came from. She put down the book, shook Xiao Yu's hand, and smiled as usual. "Well, there are some things in the mansion. I'll go and make arrangements and tell the prince when I come back."
After saying that, he hurried out of the bedroom.
Xiao Yu looked at her back as she left and wanted to raise his arms, but even with all his strength, he could only move them slightly before they dropped down again.
After Su Lingyue explained everything, when she came in again, she saw Xiao Yu looking at the green gauze curtain with a gloomy look in his eyes.
Seeing Xiao Yu's expression, Su Lingyue felt inexplicably uneasy.
"Your Highness." She called softly.
Xiao Yu turned his head to look at her, his face showing an expression of extreme despair and his eyes lifeless.
She wanted Xiao Yu to be as happy as possible, but looking at his current appearance, Su Lingyue felt as if her heart was being tightly grasped by a big hand, and the pain made it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Su Lingyue sat down beside the bed, raised her hand and gently stroked Xiao Yu's face. Holding back the heat in her eyes, she asked with a smile, "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"
A warm feeling came from his cheek. Xiao Yu turned his eyes and met Su Lingyue's gaze. When he saw her slightly red eyes, his eyelashes trembled, and his silent eyes finally showed a hint of fluctuation.
"Yue'er, what happened?" Xiao Yu asked gently.
Doctor Lu had said that Xiao Yu's current health was most vulnerable to worry. Therefore, when Su Lingyue and Yan Qing discussed matters both inside and outside the palace recently, they tried to avoid Xiao Yu.
Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu's dark eyes and finally looked away. She was not good at lying.
Su Lingyue leaned over, resting her hands on Xiao Yu's shoulder, and whispered, "No, it's just some shopping for the mansion. I just went out to talk about this."
A faint scent of jasmine wafted through the nose.
Xiao Yu sensed Su Lingyue's caution, and the gloom that had enveloped him lifted a little. He knew Yue'er was doing this for his own good.
But, "You haven't frowned like you did today in a long time. I'm worried."
Su Lingyue's breathing stopped.
She forgot how wise Xiao Yu was and how clear his mind was, and how he could not see through her disguise.
Her concealment also showed her distrust of Xiao Yu. Concealment might not be good for Xiao Yu, and the worry about the unknown might make Xiao Yu even more sad.
"It's Yan'er's business."
……
Su Lingyue told Xiao Yu what happened.
"Yun Ting killed Zheng San. If my uncle reveals that he was from Prince Su's Mansion, even if we are right, the emperor will use this as an opportunity to attack Prince Su's Mansion. I just told the guards to quickly inform my uncle to be cautious. If we report it to the police, we can only say that Yun Ting is from the Jiang Mansion. They have never seen Yun Ting's true face, so they can't verify it."
"Is what I did good?"
Xiao Yu squeezed the little hand in his palm and comforted her gently, "Yeah, very good."
Su Lingyue's eyes sparkled when she received Xiao Yu's approval. Looking at Xiao Yu again, the worry and silence on his face had dissipated, and his expression was peaceful and tranquil.
Xiao Yu stared at the ceiling, his eyes dark. He felt as if something was developing in an uncontrollable direction.

The guards received Su Lingyue's instructions and rushed to find Yan Qing without stopping.
After the guard conveyed Su Lingyue's words to Yan Qing, Yan Qing stood with his hands on his hips, looking very proud.
"Lord Jiang and I have both thought of this, and we are also prepared to follow the princess's wishes and call Yun Ting a member of the Jiang Mansion."
Duan Xu went to the Ministry of Justice for other matters. Li Huaizhi happened to be in the office. After listening to Jiang Fu's statement, even though he had handled many major cases, there was still obvious shock on his face.
"How dare Minister Zheng be so bold?!"
Jiang Fu's face was gloomy and he looked angry. "He thought that after Zheng San succeeded, for Yan'er's sake, my Jiang family would not dare to do anything to him. He can only suffer this loss in silence!"
Two ministers were involved, and the son of one of them was dead. Li Huaizhi understood the seriousness of the matter.
"What does Lord Jiang think?" Even if Li Huaizhi was investigating a case, he wanted to know what the person involved thought, whether he wanted to let the matter go or get to the bottom of it.
Jiang Fu's face was gloomy. As a husband and a father, his wife and daughter had suffered such a disaster. If he still wanted to keep things quiet, those villains would become even more confident.
"I will get to the bottom of this matter, and I will fight to the death to seek justice for my wife and daughter!" Jiang Fu's voice was sonorous and powerful, showing his determination.
Li Huaizhi nodded, "I understand, and I will definitely follow the rules!"
Jiang Fu nodded, and then remembered Su Lingyue's instructions. He slowed his voice and said to Li Huaizhi, "For the sake of my wife and daughter's reputation, please don't spread this matter, Lord Li."
Li Huaizhi nodded, "Don't worry, Lord Jiang, I will know how to handle it."
After the conversation, Li Huaizhi looked at Jiang Fu's back as he headed towards the palace, and his heart suddenly tensed up.
Tomorrow's court will inevitably be a bloody storm.
Yan Qing knew Yun Ting's true appearance, and quickly painted a portrait of Yun Ting and gave it to Jiang Siyuan.
When Jiang Siyuan saw Yun Ting's true appearance, he was amazed.
I hadn't expected the bearded guard to be so handsome. His face was like a jade, his eyes like a deep pool. No wonder he had to hide his true appearance; with a face like that, it was hard not to attract attention walking down the street.
Just looking at Yun Ting's face, an inexplicable sense of familiarity arose spontaneously. Jiang Siyuan looked at it for a while but still couldn't remember it.
He rolled up the painting, said goodbye to Yan Qing, and immediately went out to arrange a new identity for Yun Ting.
Yan Qing also hurriedly rode back to the palace and wrote back to Yun Ting.

Su Lingyue stayed in the bedroom with Xiao Yu and continued reading the unfinished book.
Xiao Yu saw that she read two out of three sentences incorrectly, and was about to persuade her to put down the book when there was a knock on the door.
Caiyi hurriedly reported at the door: "Princess, Uncle Lu has brought Miss Ling'er back to the palace. She is seriously injured and needs your assistance."
Su Lingyue's heart tightened, but she felt a little relieved when she realized what was happening.
Ling'er is still alive.
As long as there is any possibility, they will spare no effort to save Ling'er. If anything happens to Ling'er, she will never be able to face Lu Bo again.
"Go!" Xiao Yu looked at her gently with his deep eyes and a gentle smile on his face.
Su Lingyue nodded, "I'll let Caiyi stay here to take care of the prince. If anything happens, send her to call me."
"it is good."
Su Lingyue covered Xiao Yu with the quilt again before hurriedly leaving the bedroom.

In the Baicao Garden, Luzhu and Xiahe were fanning themselves vigorously while boiling medicine. Li Jing stood outside Ling Ling's room with his arms folded, his face looking solemn.
"Ajing, what's wrong?"
Li Jing saw Su Lingyue coming over, and her expression eased a little. "It's not good. He only had one breath left when he returned home."
Su Lingyue felt sorry for Ling Ling.
If she had known this would happen, she would never have let Ling'er take this risk. She looked at the bedroom door, feeling even more worried. Facing her family, she wondered if Uncle Lu could act like usual.
When I opened the door, a strong smell of blood hit me in the face.
With the help of sunlight and candlelight, Su Lingyue could see that Doctor Lu's hands were bright red, with Caidie and Qiulu helping him.
Doctor Lu was holding a needle, preparing to suture Ling Ling's wound.
Perhaps because he was facing his loved ones, Doctor Lu was not calm. His hand holding the needle kept shaking and he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Uncle Lu, let me do it."
Hearing Su Lingyue's voice, Doctor Lu turned around abruptly. Seeing Su Lingyue, he looked like he saw a savior, and his red eyes lit up, "Girl Yue, come quickly!"
"Okay." Su Lingyue responded, and at the same time picked up the armband on the hanger, tied the sleeves neatly, washed her hands, and asked Qiulu to pour her some strong liquor to rinse them again before taking the suture needle from Doctor Lu's hand.
When he saw the several-inch-long sword wound on Ling Ling's chest, he gasped.
The sword pierced through his chest, almost brushing past his heart. If it had deviated a bit, Ling Ling would have died on the spot.
Under the guidance of Doctor Lu, Su Lingyue began to suture the wound. Doctor Lu held a lantern for illumination, while Caidie cooperated in wiping the blood from the wound.
Uncle Lu must have given Ling Ling acupuncture, as the blood flow from her wound was obviously much slower than normal.
After an incense stick of time, under Lu Bo's guidance, Su Lingyue learned how to suture a wound for the first time and completed it smoothly.
"Although Ling'er's pulse is weak, it has temporarily stabilized."
After hearing Su Lingyue's words, Doctor Lu relaxed and slumped down on the stool.
