The little heroine investigates a mysterious case

Gu Zhanghua and Zhao Xuan hurried back to the dormitory and heard Xiao Aiyue questioning the heavens, "Is there any justice in the world?!"

Gu Zhanghua held the divorce letter in one hand and Zhao Xuan's hand in the other. He walked quickly into the room, walked directly in front of Xiao Aiyue, and handed the divorce letter to Xiao Aiyue.

"Mom, I've written the divorce letter. Here it is for you!"

Xiao Aiyue was stunned, a little bit unbelievable. She always thought that the two were just talking, but she didn't expect that they would write the divorce letter so quickly.

She snatched the divorce letter and first smelled the scent of ink. Then she saw that some of the thick strokes had not yet dried. It was indeed freshly made.

There was no doubt that the divorce letter was written by her son himself. Of course she recognized his handwriting. It was clearly written in black and white that Zhao Xuan would be divorced immediately. There was not a trace of sneaky or cunning between the lines.

Xiao Aiyue read it over and over again, but couldn't find any flaws or mistakes.

"Mom, don't worry, this letter of divorce was indeed written by me. I can swear to you!"

Seeing Xiao Aiyue reading the letter over and over again, questioning the authenticity of the divorce letter, Gu Zhanghua hurriedly spoke.

"Yes, mother, I have been hiding my identity from you. It is my fault. I am willing to accept any punishment!"

Zhao Xuan also quickly added.

Xiao Aiyue raised her head and looked suspiciously at Zhao Xuan and Gu Zhanghua standing side by side in front of her. They looked calm and were actually holding hands...

If these two people acted like they couldn't bear to part or were determined not to write the divorce letter, or if they hesitated for even half an incense stick of time before writing the divorce letter, Xiao Aiyue might believe it seriously.

But now Xiao Aiyue is certain that there must be something wrong with the divorce letter, but she cannot see it for the time being with her level of knowledge.

It's no wonder that Xiao Aiyue thinks too much. Bargaining is important when buying things. Xiao Aiyue certainly knows that her request is excessive. How could the couple agree to her wishes so readily?

Even if Zhao Xuan was willing to be divorced, as the damsel in her son's belly, Xiao Aiyue knew too well that her son had liked Zhao Xuan since childhood. Now that they were husband and wife, he should love Zhao Xuan like a treasure. How could he divorce Zhao Xuan so easily?

The more Xiao Aiyue thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong!

No, she had to go back to the palace quickly and ask His Majesty to help her find out what was wrong with this letter of divorce!

There was no time to lose. Xiao Aiyue didn't care that she was still groggy and called her wet nurse to return to the palace immediately.

Everyone sent Xiao Aiyue to the gate of the mansion. Seeing Xiao Aiyue get on the carriage, Zhao Xuan waved to her with a smile.

"Take care, mother!"

Gu Zhanghua followed suit and waved towards the carriage with a smile.

"Mom, take care!"

Xiao Aiyue in the carriage: "..."

Damn it, the feeling of being fooled is becoming more and more real!

?

When everyone saw the carriage gradually driving away, they felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ma Zhenzhen was worried about her son, so she said goodbye and returned to Prince Cheng's mansion in a hurry.

Zhao Xuan couldn't help but hold her forehead when she saw Gu Jingfeng and Xiao Yixiang inseparable.

"Third brother, why are you pestering Little Doctor Fairy again? We just came back from Yue Country. Are you sending people to wait outside my house every day?"

Before Gu Jingfeng could say anything, the little medical fairy rolled her eyes at him.

"It's my bad luck! I just arrived at the clinic this morning and this guy spotted me. Don't follow me, I need to go back to my room and sleep right now!"

After the Little Medical Fairy finished speaking, she lifted her skirt and walked around Gu Jingfeng into the mansion as if she was avoiding the god of plague.

Gu Zhanghua kept looking in the direction where the carriage was going away, and he was really worried.

"Will my mother cause trouble with father again when she returns?"

"No!" Gu Jingfeng said confidently, "The one who can handle Concubine Shu is not you, the son, nor your daughter-in-law, but our father!"

Zhao Xuan and Gu Zhanghua's eyes were filled with disbelief. Could they take Third Brother's words seriously? He was the most unreliable!

Gu Jingfeng sensitively sensed the two men's distrust of him and put his hands on his hips.

"Sons will eventually marry, and daughters will eventually marry, and then they will each live their own lives. Only husband and wife can accompany each other until old age, and no one can replace them!

That's why I said that Concubine Shu wouldn't listen to anyone's advice, but as long as Father takes action, one person can defeat three, and Concubine Shu's anger will disappear sooner or later. Why should we worry about it?"

"You make a lot of sense!"

Zhao Xuan gave Gu Jingfeng a thumbs up, as if she admired him, but what she said was heartbreaking.

"Go back home quickly and don't disturb our lives!"

Gu Jingfeng: “…”

I'm sorry to be ignored. Goodbye!

?

In the side hall of the imperial palace's bedroom.

The eunuchs and palace maids had already prepared dinner. Gu Li sat at the table. Just as he picked up the chopsticks, he saw the chief eunuch Han Gu hurried in.

"Your Majesty, the Concubine Shu has returned to the palace. She said she has something urgent to discuss with Your Majesty and is waiting outside the bedroom!"

Gu Li's hand holding the chopsticks immediately paused.

"Why is she back so soon? Didn't she say she would wait until tomorrow's palace banquet to bring Xiaowu and Xuan'er to the palace? She even asked me for leave to stay at Prince Xian's mansion tonight?"

Han Gu had a bitter face and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

As far as he knew, ever since the virtuous prince and his wife went to the Kingdom of Yue, the palace had been in a mess because of the Shufei.

At first, the ladies were all excited to enter the palace. Being summoned by the Concubine Shu was a great blessing.

Who is Concubine Shu?

The most favored concubine of the Xia Kingdom! The mother of the renowned and renowned Prince Xian! The mother-in-law of the beloved and beloved Princess Xian of the Yue Emperor!

But after a few days, the ladies of the court could not stand it anymore. Their ears were covered with calluses from hearing Concubine Shu praise Princess Xian over and over again. They were at a loss for words to say, and they had to sit so obediently from morning to night that their backs and waists ached.

What's even more terrifying is that every lady's house is full of trivial matters. She has to get up early and go to the palace late every day. The concubines in the house have started to make trouble, and the power of the family is in jeopardy.

In the following days, the ladies felt as if they were visiting a grave when they entered the palace. Their faces were so gloomy that a bag of black water could drip out of them. However, they had to force themselves to smile in front of the empress. It was really miserable.

The ladies complained privately, and the harem was in turmoil. Their husbands were also worried about their duties, so they reminded His Majesty in a roundabout way at the morning court to keep a good control over Concubine Shu.

So, Your Majesty was also very troubled.

Last night, Concubine Shu suddenly asked His Majesty for permission to go to Prince Xian's Mansion this morning, and would not return to the palace with her son and daughter-in-law until before the palace banquet tomorrow. She also carefully observed His Majesty's expression, fearing that His Majesty would not agree to let her stay overnight at Prince Xian's Mansion.

Han Gu saw it clearly at the time. His Majesty had to use all his strength to suppress his extreme surprise. His face turned red and he sighed and was reluctant to let the Queen leave the palace. After several rounds of negotiations, His Majesty "reluctantly" agreed to the Queen's request.

Your Majesty finally had a good sleep last night. When he woke up this morning and learned that the Queen had left the palace, he was full of energy. He handled government affairs like a fish in water and had a good appetite for food.

How many hours has it been?

The Queen unexpectedly returned to the palace, and he didn't want to report this "bad news" to His Majesty, but he had to say it!

"This... If you ask me, I can't answer. But the Madam looks very anxious, and seems... to have been crying. I see her makeup is all smudged..."

Gu Li was startled when he heard this, and his chopsticks dropped to the ground with a clatter.

"Big news! It must be something big! She's always been so concerned about her appearance! She wouldn't even let me see her makeup off, and she'd already put it back on when I woke up. What do you think Concubine Shu has been up to in Prince Xian's mansion?"

Han Gu frowned and thought hard.

"Your Majesty, this old servant, this old servant, I really can't think of it... Your Majesty's actions are truly unpredictable..."

Gu Li stood up swiftly and pretended to yawn while covering his mouth.

"How about I go get some sleep first! I'm really sleepy! Can you share my worries?"

Han Gu was terrified and waved quickly towards Gu Li.

"Your Majesty, please don't embarrass me. I want to live two more days to serve you! Please spare me!"

Han Gu was almost crying. His Majesty wanted to be a hands-off boss. He couldn't handle the big Buddha like Concubine Shu!

Gu Li looked at the table full of delicacies and had no appetite at all. He closed his eyes and decided to give it a try.

"Han Gu, go and invite Concubine Shu in!"

After a while, Xiao Aiyue came in quickly with cat steps, and handed the divorce letter tightly clenched in her hand to Gu Li.

"Your Majesty, please help me check if this divorce letter is fake!"

"Divorce letter?! Where did you get a divorce letter again?"

Gu Li took it and looked at it, he was stunned and asked a series of questions.

"Xiao Wu wants to divorce Xuan Er? Why? Aren't they good friends? They just escaped a disaster from Tian Shang, shouldn't their relationship be strengthened through hardship?"
