Smiling Under Lanterns

"Was Lady Ke, Lu Tong's first wife from the Ke Family, murdered by your Master Ke?"


Wan Fu was taken aback, almost jumping up from his chair, and exclaimed, "How could that be possible?"


The mysterious person behind the curtain spoke softly, "In that case, she was murdered by someone from the Grand Preceptor's Mansion."


Upon hearing this, Wan Fu looked up sharply, "How do you know about the Grand Preceptor's Mansion?"


There was a silent stillness all around.


Suddenly, Wan Fu realized where that hint of peculiarity in his thoughts had come from. He turned to look at the light aqua bamboo curtain, wishing he could clearly see the person behind it, and asked, "Who are you?"


This person had come asking about Lady Lu and mentioned the Grand Preceptor's Mansion in the conversation. Recalling that Wan Quan, although often insensible, would not just casually lose thousands of silver taels.


But it would be different if someone had led him into it.
