The Grand Master's expression froze and he closed his eyes extremely sleepily.

Liang Huan came back to his senses and shook his head at Gu Yu to signal her to leave first.

"Yes, what's going on?" The grand master had opened his eyes, and his breath was much weaker.

Gu Yu looked at Liang Huan hesitantly, and when he saw that she didn't stop him, he said, "Died of illness."

Liang Huan stood up suddenly and stared at her speechless.

Died of a good illness?

Guyu said: "The person who sent the letter didn't see Prime Minister Cao, so he heard it by accident."

Prime Minister Cao was not in good health, so he had to work hard to prevent his sudden death from illness.

Liang Huan didn't want to reveal his emotions, so he just helped the grand master lie down slowly: "Let's take a rest."

"Okay." The Grand Master lay down and looked at her, "I have a few words to say to you."

Seeing this, Gu Yu consciously exited the door.

There was no one else in the room.

The grand master was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, and it was a bit difficult to speak, "Huanhou, if you really want to be with him, stay away from the palace."

Liang Huan was stunned. This was the first time that the Grand Master called her this way, and she was just silent for a moment.

He raised his hand and touched the pillow with difficulty.

Liang Huan reached out to help him get it, which was a letter and a silver peony pendant.

She wanted to hand it to him, but he pushed her back: "After I die, I will give this letter to the Queen Mother. You can keep this seal."

Liang Huan's eyes were sore: "Don't worry, Aweng, I will definitely bring you."

He twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled faintly, "This time, his vision is better than mine. I leave him to you... Yes, our Lu family owes him."

Liang Huan lowered his head and closed his eyes.

His eyes were slightly closed, his voice was very soft, and there was not much clarity in the slits of his eyes, "Go ahead, I want to sleep for a while."

"……it is good"

Liang Huan's throat tightened and he clenched the letter and flowers in his hand.

The silver flowers make people's hearts ache when they prick them.

She took a slow breath, glanced at the bed again, and then headed for the door.

Every step is extremely heavy.

Liang Huan collected the letter and peonies before stepping out of the house.

Everyone was waiting at the door.

Seeing Liang Huan come out, the imperial doctor saluted: "Madam, I will return to the palace to resume my duties."

Liang Huan returned the greeting: "Thank you, sir."

The imperial doctor waved his hand, sighed and left.

Liang Huan asked someone to send the imperial doctor for a ride, and a steward came to report. All the things needed were ready.

Only then did she order someone to go in and change the clothes of the grand master.

Seeing everyone staring at her, he added: "This matter will not be announced to the public before returning to the Grand Master's Mansion."

After the affairs were assigned and everyone went about their business, Liang Huan looked at Gu Yu and said, "Let's go change clothes too."

Guyu hesitated for a moment and said: "Ji Liang, there is one more thing. In the court today, Mrs. Lou took out a letter written by the enemy country to your Excellency."

Liang Huan's face turned pale, "It's Cao——"

Gu Yu hurriedly explained: "It's not Mrs. Cao. She didn't show up at the place you asked to keep an eye on."

Liang Huan calmed down and realized that the letter could not be true, nor could it be provided by Cao Luyun.

Cao Luyun only knew his life experience, but had no idea what he was doing.

Or, the letter is true, but it is not for Lu Xiu, but for that person.

Maybe it was because that person knew Lu Xiu's identity and did it on purpose.

Prime Minister Cao passed away, and so did the Grand Master. It will only be more difficult in the future——

Just as Liang Huan was about to speak, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

Someone seemed to be talking in the outer room, the voice was not loud, low, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction.

Liang Huan opened her eyes and sat up quickly.

"Madam, you scared us to death."

Before Liang Huan could see clearly where he was, Gu Yu's face rushed towards him.

Liang Huan pushed her away, looked around, and was about to get down: "Nanyuan? Are we back?"

Gu Yu was afraid that she would be worried, so he said: "The mourning hall has been set up. The Queen Mother has sent someone here. Lord Shangshu Ling is outside. All the trivial matters in the mansion are arranged by the chief steward and Bai Lu. Don't worry, it's you. The doctor of the mansion said that you have been there recently." You’ve worked too hard and need a good rest.”

Liang Huan lowered his head, his clothes had been changed, and his expression was serious.

Guyu: "Madam, don't worry."

She turned her head and glanced at the door, then carefully took out two letters and a silver peony pendant from under Liang Huan's pillow, barely audible: "Madam, don't worry, this servant changed the clothes for you alone."

Liang Huan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

Guyu pointed at the flower and whispered: "Madam, you must put that flower away."

After she finished speaking, she didn't say anything more and obediently served Liang Huan to get up.

Within a day, two important ministers died of illness, causing an uproar in both the government and the public.

The Grand Master's Mansion, which was usually not a bustling place, was suddenly crowded with people. The people standing guard in front of the coffin were all covered in black heads.

Liang Huan, except for three sticks of incense in the morning and evening, would not go to him again, leaving the place where he could cry bitterly.

Liang Huan dressed in plain clothes, put on incense and prepared to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When I went out, I happened to bump into Lu Xu.

Thanks to him socializing here these days, otherwise, those officials alone would be enough to make her dizzy.

"Are you going out?"

Liang Huan first saw the ceremony and then replied: "I have only been paying attention to this for the past two days. The funeral should be held tomorrow. It is reasonable to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Since that rumor, no one knows that Prime Minister Cao and her have been friends for many years. No one expected that such a stubborn old man would be full of praise for this little girl.

Lu Xu nodded with a gentle look on his face: "Go ahead and go slowly on the road."

Liang Huan just took a step.

Lu Xu added: "You come to Beixuan later. I have something to ask you."

Liang Huan lowered his head and responded.

Lu Xu has been living in Beixuan these days.

In the car.

Guyu whispered: "Master Shangshu Ling has been to the East Pavilion."

Liang Huan understood and went to Dongge, where he naturally met Cao Luyun's maid.

"She still doesn't say anything?"

Guyu: "Shuangjiang has tried every trick, but she can't pry her mouth open. It's like Madam Cao disappeared out of thin air."

Liang Huan looked at her expression: "After tomorrow, if we go to another place, maybe we can find her."

Guyu gritted her teeth with hatred: "She is really a wolf-hearted person. When she wanted to commit suicide, the Grand Master saved her, but she repaid her kindness with a grudge and killed the Grand Master! My lord obviously tried to persuade me nicely, but she persisted in clinging to her, making everyone indebted to her." Just the same, we shouldn’t have stopped her in the first place and let her die!”

Liang Huan sighed.

In the previous life, Da Sima's wife, Cao, died in depression at a young age.

With Cao Luyun's character, it was hard not to get into trouble when the Cao family was destroyed and Lu Xiu treated him coldly.

Liang Huan didn't want to mention her, so she just raised her eyes and said, "Do you have any information from your side?"

Guyu shook his head. He was angry one moment, but became sad the next.

The Grand Master's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion are not far apart.

Unlike the Taishi's Mansion where people come and go, the Prime Minister's Mansion is a little too deserted.

It can't be called a refreshing tea.

After all, when Prime Minister Cao was alive, not many people came to visit.

The people in the mansion knew Liang Huan and immediately came to greet her when they saw her.

Liang Huan only brought Gu Yu and the chief guard in.

In the mourning hall, Cao Danqing and Zhou Yun were guarding.

After Liang Huan paid homage, he went to comfort Cao Danqing who was crying.

As if to comfort her, she patted Cao Danqing's back and said in a very low voice, "How did Prime Minister Cao die?"
