Xie Lin was heartbroken for his father, yet Zhou Gu thought it was rather timely for the Rui'an King to fall ill.

He asked Xie Lin, "Is Rui'an King's condition serious?"

"Indeed severe. How could it not be?" Xie Lin said, "We had the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau, Doctor Xu, and also used the fever-reducing prescription that Lady Su Qi gave the day she saved you. Only then was my father's high fever brought down, it was extremely dangerous last night."

Zhou Gu nodded, "So, now this case, she is the lead investigator, and you are assisting?"

"Yes, my father needs to rest for a few days." Xie Lin replied.

Zhou Gu acknowledged, "He should indeed rest well. The case is important, but the Duke himself is even more so."
