When Shen Aojun heard the bad news about Qingfeng, she felt very sad.

"Yunru, what's going on recently? Why are the people around you..." Shen Aojun sighed, his face without a trace of makeup, and he looked thinner.

"Ao Jun, I will definitely investigate Qing Feng's matter. As for Lord Shen's matter, you don't have to worry. Although that assassin is dead, we can definitely find out the cause."

Gu Yunru was busy worrying about Shen Aojun. Uncle Shen's death was unclear and even his reputation was tarnished before he died. Uncle Shen's reputation must be restored first.

"By the way, Lord Ao, the Queen Mother has promised me that she will thoroughly investigate the Admiral's corruption and bribery, and all charges of colluding with rebels will be cleared."

In order to tell her the good news, Gu Yunru had already asked the Empress Dowager and the Emperor for mercy. They both felt that there was something strange going on. It might be the remnants of the gang, and Lord Shen's death was unclear and unjust.

"Yunru, thank you for worrying about me. I haven't seen Zijun in the house for these days. I didn't expect that when something happened and I got into trouble, you were the only one by my side." Shen Aojun's eyes were full of resentment. She also married into the general's mansion and could be loyal to Huang Zijun, but she didn't expect that when such a thing happened, only Gu Yunru would be by her side.

"Aojun, you can't think like this about everything. I am your friend." Gu Yunru held her hand tightly and told her a few jokes. Seeing that her mood had improved, he breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the incident of poisoning the beauty cream, Liu unexpectedly pleaded guilty. Before taking the poison, he left a letter on the table. The handwriting on the letter was indeed his, explaining the various reasons why he committed the poisoning ritual in the beauty cream.

Kang Keren looked at Gu Yunru and Rong Zhen in panic and shook her head, "I really didn't know that Butler Liu would do such a thing. I am so disappointed. Ahem..."

"Keren, why hasn't your cough healed yet?" Gu Yunru walked forward worriedly. The words above were indeed from Butler Liu, and Liu had already admitted his crime and committed suicide out of fear of punishment. However, Gu Yunru did not hear Butler Liu's personal explanation, so she still had some doubts in her heart.

Rong Zhen looked at this scene coldly, with a plan in mind. Kang Keren secretly raised her beautiful eyes and observed Rong Zhen's expression. Seeing that he seemed suspicious, she hurriedly said, "I also had people search his house and found these gold and silver treasures. I didn't expect that he would do such a thing..."

The gold, silver and treasures in the bundle were real, and Butler Liu even embezzled the guests' money. Gu Yunru couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, thinking that she was actually raising a tiger to harm herself.

"Thank you for your hard work, Keren."

Kang Keren looked at Gu Yunru with a painful and embarrassed expression, wishing she could kneel down in front of her. Fortunately, Gu Yunru was quick to help her up. "What are you doing?"

"Yunru, this is all my fault. I didn't expect that the people around me are so ambitious. It's my fault that I didn't manage Keren House well. I don't want to stay here anymore." Kang Keren was so moved that she shed tears again. Rong Zhen looked at her expressionlessly, wanting to see if Kang Keren's eyes had reached the pinnacle.

"This was done by Liu alone. I don't blame you, but I'm a little confused. Why didn't he run away with the money, but instead confessed his crime?" Gu Yunru was puzzled. Could it be that Liu suddenly changed his mind and decided to retire? But this didn't make sense. Everything that happened seemed too coincidental.

Gu Yunru racked her brains but couldn't figure out what the meaning of Liu's action was. She watched the taciturn Rong Zhen walk up to her and rub his arm.

"Say something, please."

"There's nothing to say." Rong Zhen's voice was cold and calm. Kang Keren looked at the two who seemed to believe it and said, "Maybe it's all because of me. I'm too harsh on them. It's my fault, so... I don't have the face to stay in Keren Hall anymore." Kang Keren coughed a few times and coughed up a pool of blood. Gu Yunru saw this and widened her eyes. She quickly took her pulse and said, "Keren, you are already so weak, you'd better stop talking."

Gu Yunru was worried about Kang Keren's health condition. If she continued like this, it might be dangerous.

"It's okay, ahem. I'm used to being blamed for everything that happens to Butler Liu. The prince said that if you want to blame someone, blame me." While Kang Keren was speaking, her eyes intentionally or unintentionally looked at Rong Zhen's face. Rong Zhen was sitting aside at the moment, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

"A Zhao, please say something. People are asking you what you think." Gu Yunru kept winking at him, but he ignored her. Rong Zhen was indifferent for a moment, then straightened up. "Since this was done by Liu alone, you can't be blamed."

Kang Keren heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Rong Zhen's affirmative words. She was secretly worried that she would never do such a thing again to arouse suspicion. Her plan now was to transfer all the accounts to another place and not let Gu Yunru find out.

The two of them returned to the palace side by side. Seeing that he looked thoughtful, Gu Yunru hooked his arm and said, "A Zhao, you seemed to be very mysterious when you were in Keren Pavilion. Did you find something strange?"

Rong Zhen was about to speak, but he didn't know how to explain it to her. If he told her directly, she might not believe his one-sided words.

"Nothing. There are many doubts about this matter. We will know after careful observation in the future."

"Well, what you said does make sense. It's a pity that Qingfeng did nothing..." Gu Yunru thought about it and looked at him with a cold light in her eyes. "You said whether Qingfeng's death might be related to Liu, but Liu is no match for Qingfeng at all."

The piece of paper that Liu left before his death described how he swallowed and transferred all the properties silently, but Gardenia did not mention Qingfeng. Could she have missed some important clues?

Rong Zhen seemed to be also doubting about this matter, maybe he had thought of this as well.

"Yunru, you have to be more careful in the future. It's okay. Just don't go to Keren House again." Rong Zhen was worried about her safety and hoped that she would not be with that dangerous man, but Gu Yunru was confused and chased after him to get to the bottom of it.

"What are you talking about? Wouldn't it be better to just say it clearly?" Gu Yunru chased him into the house, and in the darkness, a pair of eyes were staring at the two of them silently.

Kang Keren changed into a nightgown, opened the door, and looked at Huang Zijun who was standing at the door. He had picked some flowers for her, all of which were her favorite flowers. The whole room was filled with the fragrance of flowers, which was refreshing.
