After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

Faced with Gu Huaijing's dissuasion, she explained in a calm but firm tone: "Mr. Gu, I have to find out about this matter. This is an unavoidable responsibility."

Gu Huaijing knew that he couldn't tell Tan Zhixu, so he could only agree to her joining in the investigation of the case.

As the investigation progresses, the two join forces to break the ice, and clues gradually converge to point to the famous Sixth Prince in the city.

The courtesan is the popular person under his command.

And the figure that Tan Zhixu followed earlier was also one of the six princes.

In order to reveal the truth, Tan Zhixu used his resourcefulness to set up a clever trap.

Three days later, on the cruise ship.

When the targeted woman appeared, she had a graceful figure and a hint of doubt and vigilance in her eyebrows.

She faced Tan Zhixu directly and asked, "Why are you following me all the way?"

Tan Zhixu looked calm and unhurried, with a faint but firm smile on his lips, and responded: "I didn't follow you. It was your own behavior that caught my attention. Maybe you have a guilty conscience?"

As soon as these words came out, the air was filled with a tense and subtle atmosphere, as if all the answers were hidden in this seemingly calm but hidden turbulence conversation.

Tan Zhixu talked with the mysterious woman on the cruise ship. Her voice was like a gurgling stream, with a hint of uncertainty.

The woman chuckled and said to Tan Zhixu: "You are a person who always wants to get to the bottom of everything, but not everything in the world is what you want. Many things are beyond our control."

A flash of determination flashed across Tan Zhixu's brows, "I understand that everything in the world does have its own laws and regulations, and I cannot control everything."

At this point, Tan Zhixu smiled at the woman.

Neither of them said anything else, and they waited until the cruise ship docked tacitly.

As the cruise ship docked, the wooden planks collided with the pier, making a dull and long sound, breaking the tranquility of the lake.

The woman smiled slightly, turned and left.

Tan Zhixu watched her drift away, but he became increasingly certain that this woman must be inextricably linked to the secretive sixth prince.

This discovery not only deepened her curiosity about the mystery, but also strengthened her determination to uncover the truth.

Tan Zhixu had been restless these past few days, her concern for Gu Huaijing weighing in her heart like a boulder. However, she had not seen Gu Huaijing in the restaurant for several days.

This made Tan Zhixu's worries become more and more intense.

"Gu Yu, go find Teng Xi and ask him what Gu Huaijing has been doing recently?"

"Yes."

In fact, even if Tan Zhixu didn't say anything, Gu Yu also wanted to do this.

After all, he couldn't see them in the past few days, and Gu Yu was feeling very anxious.

Not long after, Guyu found Tengxi.

When Teng Xi saw Gu Yu, a smile flashed on his face, "Miss Gu Yu, why are you here?"

Hearing this, Gu Yu sighed and looked around. Seeing no sign of Gu Huaijing, Gu Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Is Mr. Gu very tired recently?"

Facing Guyu's questioning, Tengxi still had a sad face.

But Teng Xi did not answer Gu Yu's question immediately, which made Gu Yu very anxious. She stared at Teng Xi with burning eyes, "What happened?"

"Don't worry."

Seeing Gu Yu's anxiety, Teng Xi stopped covering up and quickly told the truth.

"what?"

Gu Yu was originally sitting down, but after hearing Teng Xi's words, she stood up suddenly, with disbelief in her eyes.

"The person who killed the oiran is dead?"

Teng Xi nodded.

Although he didn't want to admit it, it was the truth.

The real murderer is dead, Captain 4 and 5, and those who doubted their master are still doubting him.

Teng Xi sighed, "Don't tell Miss Tan about this first. If Miss Tan finds out, she will definitely feel unhappy."

Gu Yu was still in shock. After hearing Teng Xi's words, she quickly came to her senses. She was silent for a moment and shook her head, "No, if I don't tell the master, the master will find out by himself." At this point, Gu Yu turned around and ran away. .

No matter how much Teng Xi called, she just wouldn't listen.

Tengxi had no choice but to watch Gu Yu leave.

After thinking about it, Teng Xi went to find Gu Huaijing.

Gu Huaijing had just returned from the palace and was sorting out official documents. Seeing Teng Xi hesitate to speak, his face darkened, "What happened?"

"Master, Gu Yu has just been here and knows that the real murderer is dead."

At this point, Teng Xi didn't continue.

But he was looking at Gu Huaijing nervously.

Meeting Teng Xi's scrutinizing eyes, Gu Huaijing raised his eyebrows, "Worried, Xu Xu knows?"

"Gu Yu will definitely tell Miss Tan. You said you don't want Miss Tan to worry, but..."

Teng Xi bowed his head at the loss.

He felt that he had said too much, but Gu Huaijing shook his head, "It's okay, I'll talk to Xu Xu, and you can handle these official documents."

"Yes."

Upon hearing what Gu Huaijing said, Teng Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after, Gu Huaijing went to the restaurant.

At this time, Tan Zhixu already knew the real murderer. Thinking that Gu Huaijing might still have to bear some criticism, she had to worry.

When Naihe turned her head, she saw Gu Huaijing with a smile on his face.

He smiled broadly, as if something happy had happened to him.

Tan Zhixu looked around, then quickly came to Gu Huaijing with Peach Blossom Drink, "Master Gu, you are here."

"Please, this is the newly brewed Peach Blossom Drunk in the restaurant. Do you want to try it?"

"Okay, thank you, Madam."

Gu Huaijing found out about Tan Xu Fufu's health, so he followed Gu Yu to the second floor wing.

After doing this, Tan Zhixu also entered the wing.

"what happened?"

Tan Zhixu's clear eyes were filled with worry.

Gu Huaijing hadn't seen such a vivid Tan Zhixu for a long time, and he was stunned for a while.

"Gu Huaijing?"

It was Tan Zhixu who was anxious and poked Gu Huaijing's arm.

He came back to his senses and smiled at Tan Zhixu, "If you are so worried about me, why were you not happy when I asked you to leave the Hou Mansion with me?"

"Gu Huaijing, what time is it now, and you are still joking with me?"

Tan Zhixu couldn't bear it anymore and gave Gu Huaijing a hard look.

Seeing this, Gu Huaijing stopped saying these boring words and told Tan Zhixu seriously, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Although the real murderer is dead, my suspicion has been thoroughly investigated. This person is with me." It doesn’t matter, the government officials will issue notices, and no one will doubt me anymore.”

"Really?"

"real."

Facing Tan Zhixu's probing eyes, Gu Huaijing responded with an extremely serious nod.

Gu Huaijing said this, and Tan Zhixu stopped talking and calmed down his worries, "Then I won't disturb Mr. Gu."

Tan Zhixu deliberately distanced herself and stood up to leave, but Gu Huaijing blocked her way, "Xu Xu, that person is indeed the Sixth Prince's man, you..."

"I know I'll hide from you in the future."

Tan Zhixu left despite Gu Huaijing Fufu's body.
