Chapter 1647 Just for her, talk back to me!
Nan Yan's voice sank.
"Then the murderer is in the Duwei Mansion?"
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't speak immediately.
Finding this thing has indeed proved that the murderer must be in the Duwei Mansion, and it has almost been pinned down to several people.
so--
Nan Yan looked at him and said softly, "Your Majesty, who are you thinking about?"
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't speak immediately. Instead, he was silent for a moment, then turned to look at her, his eyes flickering slightly. "What about you?"
“…”
"Who did you think of?"
“…”
The two looked at each other without saying anything.
However, Zhu Feng had already seen a flash of inspiration in Nan Yanying's eyes. Obviously, both of them were thinking of the same person.
However, this fire made them certain that the murderer was in the Duwei Mansion.
Although, this crossbow cannot be used by ordinary people.
However, if that person did not make any unusual moves, they might not have thought of him so quickly.
However, after the fire broke out, his actions were somewhat suspicious.
Nan Yan's head suddenly felt hot.
If this person was just an ordinary spy, it would be fine, but when Nan Yan thought about Ye Zheng being seriously injured and still unconscious, she felt a surge of evil and cruelty.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to deal with this person?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said calmly, "Don't be impulsive."
“…”
"Since this person has already taken action, why hasn't he left? What is his purpose in staying? We haven't figured it out yet."
“…”
"Let's find out what this person's purpose is, otherwise—it would be a shame."
“…”
Nan Yan glanced at him and nodded silently.
indeed.
In this situation, revenge is the simplest and most foolish thing to do. Since the other party has stayed, I am afraid he has other intentions. It would be best if we can follow the clues and find some valuable clues.
Zhu Feng added: "It's just that..."
"But what?"
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't answer her immediately. Instead, he turned to look at Xiao Shunzi and asked, "Were there any other people around when you discovered this thing?"
Xiao Shunzi immediately said, "No. I sensed something was amiss and asked those workers to leave."
Zhu Feng nodded: "You did a great job."
“…”
"However, the kitchen still needs to continue to be renovated."
“…”
"Send a few more workers. As for the previous ones, it seems that for the time being, don't let them leave until this is over."
Xiao Shunzi was also smart and said immediately, "I understand. I will do it right away."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
When he reached the door, Zhu Feng said again: "Go and call Yang Dai over to me."
"yes."
Not long after Xiao Shunzi left, Yang Dai arrived.
He stood at the door and said carefully, "I, your humble servant, request an audience."
Zhu Feng said, "Come in."
When he walked into the study, he saw Concubine Si Nanyan sitting in a chair beside him drinking tea, while Zhu Feng brought the pile of things to the table and looked at one of them carefully. After Yang Dai paid her respects to the Concubine, she walked to the table.
"Your Majesty summoned me here. What is your command?"
Zhu Feng handed him a burnt object in his hand and said, "Take a look at this."
When Yang Dai took it and looked at it, her face changed drastically.
"Your Majesty, this is——"
"This is the crossbow used by the person who shot Ye Zheng."
"Where was this found? Why didn't I find it?"
Zhu Feng told him what had happened before. Yang Dai listened, her face becoming increasingly gloomy. She said, "It seems that it was indeed an insider, someone from the Duwei Mansion who did it. Your Majesty, this humble servant——"
He was obviously extremely angry and was about to ask for permission to take action, but Zhu Feng raised his hand to stop him from saying anything.
He said calmly, "Don't be anxious."
“…”
"I don't want to alert the enemy right now."
"Your Majesty means—"
"That person still doesn't know that we've found this, let alone that he's under our suspicion."
“…”
"I want to see what their ultimate goal is."
“…”
"And you, pass the order down and have a team of troops ready to attack Thermidor at any time."
“……!”
Yang Dai was stunned for a moment: "Ah, attack the Thermidor?"
Although attacking Thermidor Bay was what all of them hoped for, and they hoped to have a decisive battle with those sand bandits as soon as possible, Zhu Feng had just said that he didn't want to alert the enemy, so why was he ready to attack Thermidor Bay at any time?
Isn't this contradictory?
He asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty, is this appropriate?"
Zhu Feng said, "Just go down and give the orders. I have my own ideas."
Seeing the emperor's order, Yang Dai naturally did not dare to ask any more questions, so she said, "Yes, I will go down and give the order right away."
Zhu Feng added, "By the way, you can take this too."
As he spoke, he pointed to the pile of burnt crossbow wreckage on the table. Yang Dai was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Majesty wants me to dispose of this thing?"
"no."
Zhu Feng said, "I want to see what kind of crossbow this is."
“…”
"Take it away and have someone secretly copy it."
"yes."
Yang Dai stepped forward, wrapped up the cloth bag, bowed to the emperor and the imperial concubine, and turned to leave.
Coincidentally, Nan Yan had finished her tea.
She stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will go back first."
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said, "Don't tell Ran Xiaoyu about this for now. With her temper—"
"I know."
Nan Yan said, "Your Majesty, please don't always think that she is ignorant. In fact, she has changed a lot now and is not so impulsive anymore."
"So you burned down the kitchen?"
"This-this is because she is stupid, not impulsive."
“…”
"Besides, didn't she achieve success by burning the fire?"
"snort!"
Zhu Feng snorted coldly, "Just for her, you're going to talk back to me again!"
Upon hearing these threatening words, Nan Yan immediately pursed her lips and calmed down.
She did not forget how petty the emperor in front of her was. He had quarreled with her more than once for Ran Xiaoyu.
Seeing that she was obedient, Zhu Feng snorted again.
Then he said, "Go back and sleep for a while. You didn't sleep well last night."
Nan Yan shook her head and said, "It's already this late, and you're still sleeping."
“…”
"Everyone in the palace is saying that this imperial concubine is probably a pig spirit in disguise."
Zhu Feng was amused by her.
He asked, "If you don't sleep, what are you going to do?"
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, "I still want to go over there and see that Chu Xin."
When the original intention was mentioned, Zhu Feng frowned.
He really didn't want Nan Yan to have any contact with that woman again. After all, just listening to her story made him so depressed when he came back yesterday and even had nightmares at night.
So he said, "What's so good about her?"
