Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Li Junhao did not comment. Yu Sicong did not know the wizard Mingluo, so naturally he did not know what the effect of that colorless and odorless potion was.

Sang Mo was very clear about it. He helped Yu Sicong to solve the puzzle.

"Master Yu, you don't know that when we interrogated the wizard Mingluo some time ago, he mentioned this potion. It is not only colorless and tasteless, but if a person uses it for a month, he will definitely die.

And no doctor would find out it was poisoning, and there were no symptoms of poisoning. This was the most terrifying thing about this potion."

Yu Sicong was also shocked. He didn't expect that there would be such a thing. Isn't this equivalent to killing people invisibly?

"Hmph, I'm worried that there is nothing to do these days. Your Highness, I will go over and help Lord Yan to review this matter. I believe there will be a result soon." Yu Sicong volunteered.

Li Junhao didn't say anything, but his expression was no longer as calm as usual.

Sang Mo exchanged glances with Yu Sicong, who immediately understood that the prince was angry, so he left without waiting for Li Junhao to answer.

Even Yu Sicong's usually smiling face was now filled with murderous intent.

Sang Mo also knew how much Li Junhao took this matter seriously. Even though he didn't say anything now, he must be very upset.

Everyone says that the Queen is the most noble woman in the entire harem and even in the entire Chu State, but who can know the bitterness in her heart.

As the crown prince of a country, Li Junhao's experiences over the years may not be known to others, but Xiao Fuzi and Sang Mo know it very well.

I wonder how sad the Crown Prince would feel if he knew that the Queen was murdered by someone.

On the contrary, the two of them did not dare to relax at all for the moment and served Li Junhao obediently.

After a long while, Li Junhao seemed to have just noticed something was wrong with them and finally spoke.

"What are you doing? When my mother passed away, didn't I tell you that she must have been murdered? It's just that we haven't found the person who did it yet."

Xiao Fuzi's face was filled with sorrow. "How could such a thing happen to such a good person like the Queen? Who is so cruel and crazy? It's so abominable."

Sang Mo also nodded repeatedly. He originally wanted to propose to participate in the interrogation of Wizard Mingluo, but when he saw Li Junhao's current appearance, he became more worried about his situation.

So I decided to stay and protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Li Junhao reached out and covered his thumb with the ring again. It was a birthday gift from his mother and also his favorite gift.

No matter who is behind this, he will find that person out.

At this time, someone came to the door to report that Mrs. Xie wanted to see her.

Li Junhao looked up and winked at Xiao Fuzi, who immediately changed his expression and went out to greet them with a smile.

"Oh, Madam Xie, why are you here? I was just about to ask Miss Baizhi to send you a letter." Xiao Fuzi said politely with a smile.

"What's the matter, Eunuch Fu, do you want to talk to me about something?" Gu Xunwei asked with some surprise.

"Oh, no, that's not the case. I just made an appointment with Madam Xie to have dinner at my house." Xiao Fuzi led the way, and Gu Xunwei followed into the reception room.

"Goodbye..."

"No thanks, don't bow, just sit down." Li Junhao interrupted Gu Xunwei without waiting for her to finish her greeting.

Gu Xunwei had no choice but to do as she was told and sat below him.

Seeing that he had no other instructions, I told him the purpose of my visit.

"I asked Chief Sang to bring some peaches last time. I thought Your Highness should have eaten all of them. Today, the second batch was delivered. I picked out some good ones and brought them to Your Highness."

After she finished speaking, with a gentle smile on her face, Chenxiang and Baizhi struggled to carry in a basket of rosy peaches.

"Madam Xie, you are so polite. We just finished the food we had last time, and the food you sent is just a refill. Madam Xie, you delivered it just in time." Xiao Fuzi said immediately with a smile on her face.

Gu Xunwei had always known that the people in the palace were all cunning and always spoke in a witty way, but she had never expected that Eunuch Fu was such a sweet-talker.

"It's not something expensive. If Your Highness finds it delicious, I will send some more in a few days." Gu Xunwei was talking to Xiao Fuzi, but Li Junhao just looked at Gu Xunwei quietly without saying anything.

Gu Xunwei naturally noticed something was wrong and looked at Li Junhao with a smile on her face, "Your Highness, what's wrong? It seems that you don't care about me anymore."

Of course, she was just joking, but except for Xiao Fuzi, neither Li Junhao nor Sang Mo gave a proper response.

This made Gu Xunwei immediately realize that she had interrupted something they were doing by coming here, so she quickly bowed to Li Junhao and was about to leave.

"Miss Gu..., please stay." Li Junhao suddenly spoke with difficulty and called out to Gu Xunwei.

But he called her "Miss Gu" instead of "Mrs. Xie".

This made Gu Xunwei's heart tremble. She turned around suddenly and saw Li Junhao looking at her with a sad face.

It seemed like she hadn't been called "Miss Gu" in a long time. It didn't sound real to her ears, as if she were in another world.

As soon as Xiao Fuzi heard Li Junhao call her "Miss Gu", she winked at Chenxiang, Baizhi and the other servants, and they all followed him out of the reception room in advance.

Before leaving, Bai Zhi turned back and looked at Gu Xunwei worriedly, but still left with Xiao Fuzi.

For a moment, Li Junhao, Gu Xunwei and Sang Mo were the only three people left in the hall.

Sang Mo did not wait for the two to speak again, and took the lead in helping Li Junhao explain,

"Thank you...Um, Miss Gu, Your Highness just learned that the Queen's death was caused by someone murdering her. The potion used was similar to the one used on you and your father not long ago. So he may be a little sad. Please bear with me, Miss Gu."

Gu Xunwei was also surprised when she heard this. It turned out that it was not because of herself, but because she learned about such a thing that her emotions were so out of control.

However, she immediately understood that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be extremely sad at this moment, but he was still trying hard to look calm. He really hid his emotions very well.

His original plan to leave stopped. After all, he was only eighteen years old and had just become an adult. Such things were probably a little hard for him to accept.

So, Gu Xunwei turned back and looked into Li Junhao's eyes before saying, "The old friend is gone. All we can do is to help her restore the truth and let the person who killed her get what he deserves."
