When Duanmu Nan came to diagnose Long Yue's pulse, he specifically cautioned her not to overthink things. Excessive worry could be taxing and was harmful to both the child and her.
It is easy to say, yet hard to do. A Shao is her brother-in-law, and Long Yue now had few relatives, only those on her grandfather's side. How could she ignore their matters?
The next day, Long Yue summoned Cao Xiao.
"Wang Zheng indulged himself, inviting friends over for amusement, and even devised a treasure hunt. Unexpectedly, they dug up two female corpses in his garden..."
These were the specifics; earlier, Cao Xiao merely mentioned the matter vaguely without going into detail.
Long Yue rubbed her brow, curiously asking, "There are two female corpses in his home. Has the time of their death been determined?"
"Yes, it has been determined that one died three months ago, and the other four months ago."
Long Yue was surprised. Four months, such a long time?
