Everyone was overjoyed at the news. They had been saying the General was fine, and it was all the second household's fault for spreading rumors throughout the mansion.
Swept into the main hall by the throng of people, Xiang Minghou was met by Old Madam Xiang, who had arrived late. Seeing he had returned, she finally let out a sigh of relief. "My eldest, it's wonderful that you're back."
"I've made you worry, Mother," Xiang Minghou said.
"What about the poisoning of Old Prince Helian?"
"The Old Prince was indeed poisoned yesterday, but I was framed. The matter has been investigated, and the Old Prince has now been fully detoxified."
"That's good, that's good. As long as you're all right." The old madam patted her chest. She had been terribly frightened all night.
"By the way, why do I see so many things missing from the mansion?" Xiang Minghou glanced around. He remembered several large vases in the main hall, but now not a single one was left.
