If the General's Mansion is gone, what will happen to her wealth and glory?

"Call the court doctor!!"

-

Gu Wen opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.

His throat was dry and painful as if it was being cut by a knife. After being still for a long while, he suddenly stood up.

"Yu'er, Yu'er!"

"Don't move. You have a lot of burns on your legs, back, arms, and chest. Your throat is also burned by the smoke. You should take good care of your body now, otherwise you might die young."

Gu Wen looked towards the source of the sound.

The genius doctor's apprentice, Doctor Liu, the court physician of Shaoguangyuan, warned him while pounding the medicine with a pestle.

Gu Wen's voice was hoarse like a broken gong, extremely unpleasant to the ear, and very different from his usual low voice like the sound of pearls colliding with jade.

Gu Wen didn't care about the pain on his body at all.

He got up with a limp.

"Where's Yu'er, she's okay, right? I was rescued, and she's okay too, right?"

Doctor Liu paused.

"She...couldn't be saved. When I saw you, you were holding a charred female corpse. She was dead."

Gu Wen's eyes were bloodshot from the fire and he was almost going blind.

Hearing this, tears fell. She stood up, but her burned legs could not support her and she fell to the ground.

He didn't care about his miserable appearance at all, and crawled out by grabbing the ground with his hands.

"Gu Wen, she's dead. You shouldn't be so sad now. You should take good care of yourself and avenge her. That's what you should do."

"Alas, the fire was too big that day, and Shaoguangyuan was too far away. By the time we discovered the fire, it was already impossible to put it out."

"It's obvious that someone did it on purpose, and it was planned by multiple people. And most importantly, there are more than a dozen male corpses in her room, with knives on their bodies. They look like assassins. Who sent them? And even if it was a wedding, there wouldn't be no one at Shaoguangyuan, right? Otherwise, how come no one noticed the fire after it burned for so long?"

"It's obvious that someone did this on purpose."

Seeing that he looked half dead, Doctor Liu simply lied to him.

"And according to my many years of medical observation, the female corpse does not look like Miss Tang's. I can tell the bones in a person at a glance, not to mention that I have felt Miss Tang's pulse."

Hope flashed in Gu Wen's eyes.

"Really, really?"

Doctor Liu said against his will.

"That's right. I guarantee it with my life. That wasn't Miss Tang. Miss Tang must have noticed it in advance and ran away first. The female corpse might have been someone who wanted to kill Miss Tang and made you believe that she was dead so that you would give up. That's why the female corpse appeared."

Gu Wen was in a trance.

Thoughts came back.

He only wanted to believe that Tang Yu was not dead.

Doctor Liu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Gu Wen was no longer in a desperate state.

Look up at the sky.

I said silently in my heart: Oh God, this is a white lie. Please please, ...

"By the way, the entire family of the Grand Tutor's Mansion was exiled three thousand miles away, saying they were collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the General's Mansion was also implicated. Now there are soldiers guarding the entire General's Mansion, and the eunuch beside the emperor has come to announce the decree."

"It is said that His Majesty only imprisoned everyone in the General's Mansion and will make a decision after investigating the truth. What do you think about this matter?"

Doctor Liu wanted to divert Gu Wen's attention.

We can’t let him keep his attention on Tang Yu, otherwise he will be really finished.

Gu Wen's eyes were dull.

"Where is Yu'er? Is she disappointed in me? That's why she left? It's all my fault. I didn't protect her well. She must not like me anymore!"

Doctor Liu:...
