A sigh welled up in my heart.

What on earth is going on?

Even a good official like Minister Su could not escape the scrutiny of others.

"I wonder who Father favors?" Chen Siyuan looked at her father as if he were a stranger.

"You're overthinking it," Chen Zhaokun denied.

He didn't care who became emperor. He had been investigating the cause of Wen Jingya's death all this time. Even though the incident happened in the capital and he had just gotten a clue, with the death of Minister Su, he was once again trapped in a dead end.

He could clearly sense that someone was deliberately obstructing him. Who was this person?

The investigation went on for a long time, but no results were found.

He had thought about going to find Minister Su's family, but he always felt that Minister Su was dead and he shouldn't bother them anymore.

"Father, is there anything else?"

Chen Zhaokun looked at Chen Siyuan and finally spoke the words that had been weighing on his mind.

What he feared even more was that one day he would die mysteriously like Minister Su, without even having the chance to speak one last time.

"Has anyone said or done anything strange in front of you lately?"

When I left the capital, Wen Jingya was still single. Later, she had a child. So who is the father of this child?

Why hasn't anyone looked for this child all these years?

Did Wen Jingya meet the wrong person back then?

They didn't care whether that child lived or died back then at all.

So, who targeted Wen Jingya?

It was his later wife, Jiang, who brought the child back with her.

Because he couldn't accept Wen Jingya's death during that time, he stayed away. When he returned after calming down, his wife Xiangmei was already dead.

He followed the lead of Xiangmei bringing the child back and searched for many years, but he never found any useful clues.
