He coldly said, “Empress Mother, are you confused?”
The Empress Dowager looked at him incredulously, “What did you say?”Her figure swayed, almost about to fall down.
Fu Zi hurriedly assisted at the side, “Empress Dowager ……”
Di Bei Yu converged his eyes, “Empress Mother is overly sad, I can understand. But for the sake of Nishang, it is better to let Xianfei investigate clearly.”
After saying this, he also waited for the Empress Dowager to open her mouth and looked at Su Miao again, “Go.”
Su Miao met his gaze and nodded solemnly, walking over to the body in front of Consort Yi.
Hua Nishang’s body had been slashed a dozen times, blood and flesh, and there were even a few cuts on her face, destroying her appearance and killing her in an incomparably miserable state.
Su Miao examined it and couldn’t help but frown.
Sparing her dislike of Hua Nishang, she couldn’t help but feel horrible at this moment.
“Dare to ask the Empress Dowager, where is the palace maid …… who saw Consort Yi kill someone?”
About not wanting to clash with her own son again, the empress dowager was silent for a while and spoke in a hoarse voice, “Lianxiang.”
The palace maid called Lianxiang slowly came forward, her face white, her pupils lax, and her entire body trembling.
She timidly said, “Empress Xianfei.”
Su Miao sized her up, “You saw Consort Yi make a move with your own eyes?”
“Yes.”
“If that’s the case, why didn’t you stop it at that time?”
Lianxiang’s face turned white, so anxious that her voice began to tremble, “When the slave girl saw it, Lady Yi Fei had already cut many knives, even if the slave girl went out at that time, she couldn’t stop it, and there was no one there on the other side, the slave girl …… didn’t dare to go out at all ah!”Her face was visibly horrified, tears could not stop falling down, “Lady Yi Concubine will know magic, what if she cuts the slave girl to death as well?”
Consort Yi frowned.
Su Miao suddenly said, “When did you see Consort Yi kill someone?”
“It was when the competition of today’s Four Countries Summit had just ended, the slave girl met County Lord Nishang, she was very angry at that time, and kept saying that you had even managed to win this competition, and that the other three countries’ people were all wastes ……”
The panic on Lianxiang’s face became more and more obvious, “At that time it happened that Eunuch Fu was looking for County Lord, the slave servant remembered that she had just encountered her, so she turned back to help look for her piece by piece, who knew that she would see Lady Yi Fei she ……”
“You lie!”
Su Miao suddenly interrupted in a deep voice.
The crowd was startled, “Why did Empress Xianfei say this?”
Lianxiang stared at her with wide eyes, shocked and clubbed, “No, the slave girl dares to swear to the heavens, if there is half a lie let the slave girl not die well!”
Su Miao narrowed her eyes, sizing her up with increasing concentration.
Just when everyone thought that she would raise the question of “where did she lie”, she did not continue with this topic.
Even, she did not continue to interrogate Lian Xiang.
She only saw her turn back to look at Concubine Yi, “Where was Concubine Yi when the incident happened?”
Consort Yi pursed her lips and smiled bitterly, “After watching the match, on my way back to the palace. Unfortunately, there is no one to prove it.”
Su Miao was silent for a while, “In that case, let’s use the most direct method.”
Concubine Yi was slightly stunned.
In a moment, her face suddenly changed, “Your Highness is thinking of …… invoking the soul?”
Su Miao nodded, “Hmm.”
“Then ……” she hesitated, “The empress is not well, then it’s better for me to do it?”
“No need.”Su Miao stopped, “You didn’t even propose this idea just now even after being talked to so much, isn’t it because you’re worried that it will fail?”
If it fails, it would be light for the caster himself to suffer a backlash.
But if it destroys the soul of the corpse, that would really be …… a lack of great virtue.
