Empress Dowager Ye only thought that Yun Yue was obsessed with a moment of innocence and a turbulent time. Empress Dowager Ye didn’t have the time to take care of such trivial matters, so she could only let it go for the time being.

Yun Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the palace, shook her head helplessly and got on the Yun family's carriage.

When Yun Yue returned to Yun Mansion, she realized that everyone else had arrived home. After looking around, she didn't see Yun Kangwen and Princess Jiyue. Yun Yue asked in confusion: "Dad, where are the third brother and the third sister-in-law?"

Yun Chutian frowned and shook his head, "It's still in the palace. Your third sister-in-law returned to Changle Palace today. When she learned that the Empress often went to sit there, she cried a few sadly and almost fainted. Your third brother was worried, so she stayed in Changle Palace to take care of your third sister-in-law. They probably won't leave the palace for a while, so you don't have to worry about them. As for your fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law, they returned to the Chengwang Mansion. So many things happened, so it's okay to go back to accompany the elders. And your eldest brother and sister-in-law also returned to the Ye family."

Liu Mingrou sighed, and she felt sad when she thought of Princess Jiyue crying today. "Xiao Yue'er, this incident has a huge blow to your third sister-in-law. We are afraid that we will stay in Yangcheng for a while. If you have something to do, don't worry about us."

Liu Mingrou knew that Yun Yue's family had a great career and had many patients who were seeking medical treatment, which was different from idle people like them.

Yun Yue nodded without saying a word, pretending to be in her heart. She didn't know where she was walking. She asked the person and found the way back to her yard. She was upset while walking, "What kind of nerve did I get to build this mansion so big? In the end, I actually cheated myself!"

Yun Yue walked for a quarter of an hour before returning to her yard. She was exhausted both physically and mentally, threw herself on the bed and complained without any illness.

"I would have thought it would have been better if Brother Chen was here!" Yun Yue muttered melancholy. She was very uneasy every time she arrived in Yangcheng, and Gu Chen happened to make her feel at ease, but she was just thinking about it. How could Gu Chen come back at the border?

"Ouch! It's so annoying!" Yun Yue rolled around the bed, and happened to face a familiar face. She was so scared that she almost screamed.

Gu Chen quickly covered her mouth and made a "shhhh" move.

Yun Yue widened her eyes and nodded quickly. Gu Chen let go of his hand with a smile on his face.

"Why are you here!" Yun Yue hugged Gu Chen's neck enthusiastically, which scared him, with deep and hot eyes, "Xiao Yue'er, are you sure you want to talk to me like this?"

Gu Chen glanced down, Yun Yue looked down and found that she had rolled on the bed for a few times and was a little disheveled. What was even more fatal was that she was hanging on Gu Chen's neck. From this angle, you could see her vague chest. Her face instantly turned red like a burning cloud, throwing Gu Chen away like a hot potato, subconsciously hiding in the quilt. The movement was flowing and was done in one go, making Gu Chen laugh and cry, teasing: "Now you plan to talk to me with a quilt?"

Yun Yue was so excited that she showed her head and said angrily: "Don't look at it if you are not a polite. Brother Chen is not a gentleman tonight but a prodigal son, so it's safer for us to speak like this."

"Puchi!" Gu Chen smiled helplessly, touched Yun Yue's head docilely, squinted his eyes and said lazily: "Are you not curious about why I appeared here?"

"Yeah, I'm very curious, you tell me." Yun Yue put her head on Gu Chen's legs, staring at him without blinking, making people feel itchy. Gu Chen quickly withdrew his gaze, coughed lightly, and said seriously: "I have received the news at the border and rushed back to Yangcheng with a quick horse. It has been a while since I."

Yun Yue pondered, remembering Murong Xiaotian's death, suddenly widened her eyes and asked with a serious expression: "Is the death of the emperor related to you?"

If the emperor's death is related to Gu Chen, how should she face Princess Jiyue calmly in the future?

Gu Chen touched her head with a funny look, feeling helpless, "What are you thinking about? The emperor's death has nothing to do with me. If I have to say it has something to do, I will only play a role in fueling the fire. Strictly speaking, I don't even charge the fire, because I just sent someone to tell the empress dowager and the empress to become the king of the emperor's alchemy, and I will pay close attention to the emperor's movements, and I did nothing except that."

When Yun Yue heard this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes were covered with a little sorrow, and she wanted to speak but stopped.

Seeing that something was wrong with her, Gu Chen said warmly: "What's wrong? What's so hard to say?"

Yun Yue thought about it and decided to confess to Gu Chen, "There is something I am very suspicious. The head of the Nangong family went to attend my fourth brother's wedding banquet before and asked me for something sincerely, saying that he had an enemy and wanted to save his life. He took the initiative to attack when necessary. I thought that the head of the Nangong family helped me a lot, so I treated it as a favor and gave it to me. Now I suspect that he was lying to me! That thing should not be what he wanted, but maybe it was what the Empress wanted."

"What?" Gu Chen asked in confusion.

Yun Yue simply came out of the quilt, ran around the dressing mirror, pretended to take out a pack of powder from a cabinet below and gave it to Gu Chen, "Look, this is it. This is what the head of the Nangong family asked me before, a colorless and odorless poison. What's even more amazing is that this thing died peacefully after taking it, and there was no sign of poisoning from the outside, just like sleeping when you died.

Today, the Empress Dowager asked me to see the corpses of the emperor and the empress. The Empress died peacefully, without any external injuries, and there was no sign of poisoning. I think it is very likely that she died after taking this thing.

Also, the emperor died of obvious poison, which should be mercury poisoning. I don’t doubt this, but I don’t understand one thing. The Dongfang family has been refining elixirs for so many years and the Queen Mother of Dongfang has taken medicine for decades. If we hadn’t planned, we would have been able to live for several more years. She really responded to the saying that elixirs can live forever. There is no reason why the emperor died of poisoning after taking it for such a short time. With his personality, I think there must be something strange here. It is probably related to the Queen. I don’t know what the specific relationship is."

Yun Yue frowned, unable to understand why Nangong Lei handed over the medicine powder to Queen Nangong, and why Queen Nangong committed suicide by taking medicine herself. These problems bothered her and made her breathless.
