Su Liyan's mother said, "Why are you in such a panic? Your brother-in-law just got to the Lu Mansion; he's barely had a chance to sit down."
Su Liyan's mother was trying to gently remind her son, Su Changliang, that his brother-in-law had just returned from the Imperial City. Unless it was something urgent, he should at least let the family have a proper reunion.
Su Changliang slapped his thigh and cried out, "Mother, it's not that I don't know better, but something has really happened!"
Lu Yuan stood up, looking puzzled. "What's going on? Take your time and tell me."
"It's true that Doctor Li is back from the Imperial City, but he was carried back! He's still lying in bed at home right now!" Su Changliang said.
Doctor Li had been treating Gu Gaoxu, but under duress, he had secretly been prescribing a slow-acting poison.
Lu Yuan had uncovered the plot, and Doctor Li had been escorted to the Imperial City to serve as a witness and expose the mastermind behind it all.
