His mother, driven to madness overnight, perished in flames.

And suspicions fell on a young woman from the Renxin Medical Hall.
However...

Liu Zide was going to take part in this year's autumn examinations, which truly made one wonder.

Perhaps by then, Lu Qian had already sensed something fishy about Lu Rou's death.
