Chapter 763 I Won’t Save You This Time (6)

"Sure enough!" The coroner broke out in a cold sweat as he looked at the "prototype" of a human figure. He gritted his teeth and said to the spy leader, "There must have been a body burned here, but we're not sure who it was."

That was true, but the coroner actually already had a guess in his mind. After all, the carriage was not far from here. Combined with the farmer's testimony, he could already guess something!

"Boss, this matter..." Several people who had been searching for Concubine Xiao now felt that this matter was really tricky.

When the farmer first showed up, they thought that the "arrogant" Concubine Xiao was playing tricks!

But after several rounds of torture, the farmer still wanted to die. The bracelet was stripped off the corpse, and they were still very scared!

The detective leader pondered for a moment, then said to the coroner, "Use the same method you used to investigate cases before, and see if there are any clues nearby!"

Then he turned to another confidant and said, "I asked you to check the people around Concubine Xiao before. Did your people find anything?"

The confidant touched his head and said, "Boss, that lady has someone in her palace!"

"Nonsense!" the spy leader cursed, "Prince Xiao followed the imperial concubine out of the palace for hunting this time, her rank had not been reduced! The imperial concubine's eunuchs, servants, palace maids, and maids all have strict rules. She only brought one palace maid out this time, where are the others!"

The confidant hurriedly explained: "Boss, we have checked and found that several people were "seconded" when the imperial concubine fell out of favor. The only eunuch now is Xiao Dezi who guards the inner palace.

Originally, the imperial concubine had a nanny by her side, but she died two days before she left the palace due to her old age and catching a cold.

As for the other maids around the Empress, they were also sent away shortly after the news of the Imperial Concubine's disappearance reached the palace, and are now in other noble palaces."

The spy leader frowned, he felt that there must be something fishy going on.

At this moment, the coroner was carefully investigating the scene, and suddenly found a piece of cloth on a branch not far away. Although it was very dirty, the texture of the cloth was very good.

Although the embroidery patterns on it can no longer be seen, the dark patterns hidden in the cloth can still be vaguely seen, although he has been doing the work of a coroner for many years.

But a coroner is different from another coroner. This person works for the powerful and wealthy because he is quite knowledgeable about these things.

He knew that this pattern was like a unique symbol representing identity in the palace.

The careful coroner twisted the edge of the cloth with his fingers, and a small handful of black ash appeared between his fingers. He was almost certain that this cloth was not scraped off by a branch when someone was dragged.

These are clearly pieces of clothing blown up by the wind during the burning process.

At this point, the identity of the corpse seemed to have been verified: it was either the missing Concubine Xiao, or a corpse wearing Concubine Xiao's clothes.

Just then, the sound of horse hooves came from a distance and everyone became alert.

I saw a horse running up to me, and the person on the horse was actually the eunuch chief steward beside the current emperor Liang Song.

After getting off his horse, he hurriedly walked towards the head of the secret agents and whispered, "The emperor has ordered that this case be dropped and not to be investigated further."

The chief spy looked surprised and was about to ask a question when the eunuch chief had already mounted his horse and left.

Everyone looked at each other, full of doubts but unable to disobey the king's orders.

The spy leader could only wave his hand helplessly and signal his men to retreat.

The coroner looked at the scorched earth and suddenly heard his superior ask, "Is it her?"

"Is that so?" The coroner handed the strip of cloth in his hand to the chief detective, "But no one knows the truth."

After taking a look at the "traces" on the ground, he sighed: "This is good, at least I don't have to take responsibility."

The spy chief thought that the matter had just passed. After all, in the following few days, no one in the palace mentioned this imperial concubine who was once the most favored concubine in the six palaces. Even the Zhaoyang Palace where she once lived had been closed off.

The emperor was just like usual. After court each day, he either reviewed memorials or went to Wangyue Tower to accompany Liu Yunqing, who was pregnant.

Another half a month passed, and these spies all thought that the matter was over.

But one night, someone was suddenly thrown into the cell where they were spying, and was "escorted" by a man in a cloak.

The man took out a token and showed it to them, then said in a shrill voice: "Let him try all the torture instruments here one by one. Don't let him die too quickly! Oh, and keep an eye on him. Don't let him kill himself!"

Even though he was wearing a cloak, the spy knew his identity—it was the eunuch chief Fu Shun!
