Chapter 2356: Untitled Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations “No.” Emperor Wu rubbed his forehead. The news was too big to be fake, but it was Mrs. Gu they were talking about. Both the Gu and Long families were among the ten major clans. Now that they were joined by marriage, even the emperor had to think twice before dealing with them. Luckily, Lord Gu was an obedient subordinate, and the Long family kept a low profile as well. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶 Why would Feng Wu offend both families at once? She hasn’t asked me for help yet. Why should I care about her??thought Emperor Wu. On second thought, he realized that with how much Jun Linyuan cared about Feng Wu, he would never sit this one out. If he tried to defend the girl, he could damage the equilibrium among all the families. At that thought, Emperor Wu couldn’t sit still anymore. He rose to his feet. He told Gao as he walked, “Send someone to the Gu family and see what’s going on. Be discreet. Is that understood?” Gao knew that the emperor had to declare his attitude if the others knew that he was asking around. Therefore, he wanted to remain neutral until he found out what happened. As soon as Emperor Wu left, Ranmil almost jumped to her feet. She looked at Qingcao in disbelief. “Is it true? Did Feng Wu really kill Mrs. Gu?” Qingcao nodded. “I heard it from Caiwen, the chief maid of Her Majesty the empress. She said that Feng Wu is definitely going to die this time.” Ranmil trembled in excitement. “Gosh! I thought I would never defeat Feng Wu, but there she goes. She’s just ruined herself! This is my happiest day! “Let’s go.” Ranmil headed for the door. Qingcao asked, “Where are we going?” Ranmil said, “His Majesty must have gone to Empress Dugu. When Her Majesty the empress dowager hears about it, she’ll want to see Empress Dugu as well. Let’s go to Cining Palace to see the old lady!” She had never felt so happy since she arrived at the palace. It was like a sunny day that she had been waiting for for ages. As expected, Empress Dugu and Emperor Wu were both at the empress dowager’s palace. Even Princess Jun Wuxia was there. They didn’t mind Ranmil joining them. Caiwen, Empress Dugu’s chief maid, was telling the story. “Mrs. Gu is dead, and the killer is the famous Feng Wu. Lord Gu’s manor is in a mess at the moment, and everyone is asking for more information.” Gao, the eunuch, had gone to the manor, and would send back information if he found any, but Emperor Wu was still anxious. “Why did Feng Wu kill Mrs. Gu?” Emperor Wu couldn’t understand it. Caiwen said, “I heard that Mrs. Gu walked in when Miss Feng Wu was with another man… So…” What?! Emperor Wu jumped to his feet. Meanwhile, the Gu manor was in a mess. All the ladies and their daughters had gathered around. Old Mrs. Long saw her daughter lying in a pool of blood and the open wound on her stomach. When she heard Lady Gu say that Mrs. Gu was dead… She immediately passed out. That started a new round of panic.
