"Someone come!"

"Bring all the mugwort and surround her!"

In an instant, thick smoke surrounded the general's concubine.

At this time, Lu Yun noticed that a lot of small insects were coming out of the child's nose, ears, and mouth. They were so densely packed that it made people's scalp tingle and was very creepy.

Even Shangguan Yan was shocked.

"What did you do to my brother!"

"How could there be so many poisonous insects in his body!"

At this moment, the woman was completely panicked and wanted to die.

The truth has now been revealed. The person who cast the curse was the concubine of the great general in front of him.

Lu Yun said in a cold tone, "In order to conceal your tracks, you put your own child in danger."

"You actually sent all the poisonous insects into your child's body."

Shangguan Yan was also very indignant and quickly snatched her baby brother from her cradle. "Auntie, why are you trying to harm my father?"

"My father married you into the family, it's your blessing, and you even had a child, didn't you!"

"You don't even spare your own children!"

As they were talking, General Shangguan Yun also ran over anxiously. He asked tremblingly, "Xiaoyue, what did you do?"

"Why would you kill a child?"

Xiaoyue, the general's concubine, collapsed to the ground with tears in her eyes, "Master, I didn't mean to harm our child!"

"I was just afraid of being discovered, that's why I did it."

"Our child will be fine. I just put the poisonous insect into his body. I will drive it out when the time comes."

"Master, I'm sorry."

Shangguan Yun took a deep breath, looking a little sad, and looked much older in an instant.

"Why! Are you someone sent by Xiao He? You want to murder me!"

Lu Yun rolled his eyes after hearing this. At this point, do you still think that General Xiao He wants to harm you?

Can't you think about it?

Xiao Yue said quietly, "Master, I don't want to lie to you. In fact, I want to say that it was indeed General Xiao He who harmed you."

“But in fact, it’s not!”

"Sir, I'm sorry, I can't tell you."

After saying that, Xiaoyue took out a small pill from her arms and wanted to swallow it directly.

Lu Yun was quick-witted and rushed over to snatch the pill away. "Do you want to die?"

"Can you die?"

"Someone, take her away!"

"yes!"

Although the truth of the matter has not been thoroughly investigated, the misunderstanding has been cleared up.

The poisonous insect in the general's body was not planted by Xiao He, so I think the situation can be settled.

However, the matter of General Xiao He’s assassination may not be resolved in this way.

Lu Yun sighed. Now, the biggest breakthrough lies in this woman named Xiaoyue.

If she keeps her mouth shut, we really won't be able to find out anything, but if we can get some information out of her.

That's great too.

Thinking of this, Lu Yun said to Shangguan Yun earnestly, "General, we will take your concubine away. No matter how severe the punishment is, you must not be soft-hearted."

"What do you think?"

Shangguan Yun was stunned for a moment, feeling a little reluctant, especially when he thought of Xiaoyue's tearful expression just now. He sighed and said, "Eunuch Lu, this matter is of great importance."

"But I believe Xiaoyue must have been forced into doing this, or someone was behind it."

"I'll be with you during the interrogation. If she tells you anything, could you please say a few good words for her in front of His Majesty?"

"She is the mother of my child after all."

Lu Yun really didn't know what to say. He was so bold. Wasn't he afraid that his concubine would hurt him again?

"OK."

Lu Yun sent someone to quickly tell the emperor what happened here, which made him feel a little more at ease.

…

The imperial palace.

In the main hall, Liang Jing was sitting on the dragon throne, handling government affairs, when he received the news from Lu Yun.

"What!"

"Have you figured it out? The poisonous insect in the general's body wasn't planted by General Xiao He, but by his concubine?"

"Great, great, Lu Yun is quite impressive. He found it so quickly."

"Go down and tell Lu Yun and the general that if they can find out who's behind this, they can do whatever they want with it."

In the bedroom where Concubine Shu lives.

Xiao Mei was lying on the bed, looking very lazy. After spending three hours with His Majesty that day, she still hadn't recovered her strength and her back and waist ached.

On the contrary, Your Majesty, how come you are always full of energy?

Shouldn't he be more tired than me?

"Your Majesty, news has come from outside the palace that Eunuch Lu has found the murderer who persecuted General Shangguan, and it's not General Xiao!" The maid Qiao'er said excitedly.

"What!"

Xiao Mei sat up from the bed in an instant, "So soon?"

"Eunuch Lu is truly amazing. He cleared my brother's name so quickly."

"Brother, do you know?"

Qiao'er quickly said, "I don't know, I think he received the news."

"good!"

…

Go to the capital city.

Jingzhao Prefecture Prison!

After sending Xiaoyue to jail, Lu Yun also met the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture.

The man was wearing an official robe and his official hat was slightly crooked. He spoke with a flattering look.

"I am Cui Yong, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. I'm honored to meet Eunuch Lu."

"Eunuch Lu is truly a god. He found out the real culprit so quickly. He really puts us to shame."
