Chapter 312: Embroidered Phoenix

"Since you are so sure, let's talk about it. When was the Duke of Wei instructed?" Ze Fengduo believed that Dugu Ruyuan was innocent.

"Just two hours ago." The coachman is a coolie who has some driving skills and has no idea what is inside the car.

"Then where did you drive the car here?" Sikong Feng also began to interrogate the coachman.

"Your Majesty, Cao Min is so sure that the envoy told Cao Min about the location of Dugu Mansion, and said that I didn't believe it, so I could go to the mansion to find out his identity." The coachman was indeed not far from Dugu Mansion at that time, so he accepted the money and believed that the instructor would do his job for him.

"It just confirms that Concubine Jing disappeared after coming out of Dugu Mansion?" Sikong Feng nodded inwardly.

"Su Rui, you have been to the mansion, but what is wrong?" Shen Yixiang was very rational at this moment. He wanted to ask some useful clues most, rather than identifying the authenticity of the words as soon as he came up.

"Your Majesty, I did not notice any abnormality when I went to Dugu Mansion on your order. Moreover, Mrs. Dugu fainted after hearing that Concubine Jing disappeared." Eunuch Su reported truthfully that he was really embarrassed to tell Dugu Xiaomeng's unreasonable behavior.

"Susu fainted? Is she okay?" Dugu Ruyuan burst into cold sweat on his forehead after hearing Eunuch Su's words. He was not worried about himself, because he firmly believed that the purity would be clear, but if his wife heard that Concubine Jing's disappearance was related to him, I wonder what she would think?

"Please rest assured, Mr. Dugu, my wife is not in trouble." Eunuch Su nodded to show comfort.

"That's good, that's good." Dugu Ruyuan said with a slightly hoarse voice.

"Duke of Wei, what else do you want to say?" Shen Yixiang felt that the coachman's words were quite suspicious.

"I am innocent, I beg the emperor to investigate this matter carefully." Dugu Ruyuan was not afraid of investigation. He believed that the emperor would wisely restore his innocence.

"The grass people are also innocent, I beg the emperor to spare my life." The coachman begged timidly.

"You are innocent?" Shen Yixiang became serious, just because the coachman's words and deeds were suspicious.

"Caomin doesn't know what it is inside the car. Caomin is indeed a little greedy for money, which leads to a big disaster..." The coachman was frightened by the emperor's cold expression and quickly explained.

"I haven't asked about the matter in the car yet, why do you want to defend yourself?" Shen Yixiang continued to speak coldly.

"I... the emperor spared my life. Caomin was really curious after stopping the car, so he lifted the curtain and took a look. Caomin swore to just take a look." The driver accidentally said that he had missed his behavior.

"Your Majesty, he must have thought the car was full of money and he just wanted to take the opportunity to take some valuable items." Ze Fengduo saw through the driver's panic.

"Who would have thought..." When the coachman saw the car full of corpses, he was so scared that he lost his soul. He rolled and crawled to escape, which aroused the suspicion of the guards of the West Gate.

"A car full of corpses of palace maids?" Ze Fengduo asked, he couldn't understand the purpose of the commander behind him.

"That's right, they all looked as if they were ashen, scaring the grass-roots to death. It seemed that they were not all eunuchs..." The coachman said, looking at Eunuch Su and Xiao Caozi slanted his eyes, feeling that they were the same as the corpse in the car. At this moment, he was very scared.

"There is a woman in the car?" Shen Yixiang asked directly.

"It seems that, in a gorgeous and gorgeous costume, the grass people dare not look at it." The coachman instinctively reached out and pulled the special gorgeous costume. The material was beautiful and smooth, which made him want to pull off one, but he was weak because of his fear and was only focused on escaping his life.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the Empress is lucky and destined, it's definitely okay. Let's go to Xuan'anmen to take a look now." Ze Fengduo suggested, thinking about it would be better to see it if you don't think about it.

"Okay, let's move." Shen Yixiang was very worried, but he didn't expect that what he was most worried about happened.

"Emperor, what should I do with this coachman? There is also Lord Dugu..." Sikong Feng couldn't directly say that Dugu Ruyuan was guilty, for fear that the emperor would think he would avenge his private revenge.

"Take them to the underworld for interrogation. If there is any clue, just report to me quickly, hey~" Shen Yixiang sighed helplessly. He didn't want to be too cold to Dugu Ruyuan, but who made Concubine Jing disappear?

"Emperor, my uncle..." Dugu Ruyuan wanted to explain to himself. As the Grand Sima of the Zongcha Mansion, he was now going to be a prisoner and questioned by his opponent. He felt that he would definitely not have good results.

"The grass-roots are innocent!" The coachman immediately choked up when he heard that he was about to enter the underworld. He did thieves and took the lead, but he would not have been asked to enter the underworld and was questioned. The whole family was still waiting for him to make a living.

"I am open-minded, but I'm afraid of what the underworld is doing?" Shen Yixiang threw down this sentence and took Eunuch Su and Ze Fengduo to Xuan'anmen.

No one dared to talk to the emperor along the way. Instead, Ze Fengduo asked Eunuch Su in a low voice. Regarding Concubine Jing’s itinerary yesterday, he was very puzzled who could have learned this news in advance.

A car stopped in front of the closed city gate, and the guards surrounded it in a circle. No one dared to move without the emperor's orders.

"Please sort it out." Shen Yixiang and Ze Fengduo stood shoulder to shoulder to watch the guards lifted the cart of corpses one by one.

One, two, three, four, five...there are another seventeen corpses, and the last one is still wearing a phoenix robes.

When the last corpse was carried out of the car, Shen Yixiang stared at it with a breath of breath. He recognized that the clothes were the long skirt and robe embroidered with a phoenix pattern that he gave to Concubine Jing. Unexpectedly, he didn't have time to see Concubine Jing put on the clothes, but the two met in this way.

Just when Shen Yixiang was sad, Eunuch Su told him that the body wearing Concubine Jing's clothes was not Concubine Jing's himself. At this moment, Ze Fengduo felt that the scene in front of him was extremely familiar. Ling'er was wearing such gorgeous clothes when she passed away.

"It seems familiar~" Ze Fengduo blurted out.

"No need to say it, I know what I know." Shen Yixiang frowned and thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty, do you really think that Concubine Yi was involved in the rebellion?" Ze Fengduo felt inexplicably that the person who created Concubine Jing's fake body might be related to Concubine Yi's death.

"Of course I know she is innocent." Shen Yixiang responded coldly.

"Why did the emperor kill the nine clans?" Ze Fengduo spoke for the first time and questioned the emperor's decision.

"Are you still angry with me? You have always been confused, wondering why I asked you to execute this matter?" Shen Yixiang was left with joy and sorrow, calmness and ruthlessness.

"The emperor's decisions are all right, and I dare not question them." Ze Fengduo realized that the emperor was very unhappy at this moment.

"If you don't let you go, I'm afraid you will come with a sword to seek revenge with me." Shen Yixiang looked at Ze Fengduo meaningfully, but these eyes were filled with pain and sorrow.
