Chapter 1048 Shen Yue
The body of Duke Sheng Guo could not be found, and the government could not tell whether he was dead or not. The rumors about this incident in Xia Yangcheng became more and more intense, and even the Emperor of Chu, who was obsessed with Rourou Township, couldn't help but ask a few questions.

The minister of Dali Temple could not shirk the blame, so he had to tell the truth.

Emperor Chu was very angry.

Such a bad thing happened at the emperor's feet, and it was Duke Sheng who died. The Emperor of Chu ordered that the murderer must be caught.

The Minister of Dali Temple was always top-heavy and swaying when he went out. He was well aware of the difficulty of this matter. He accidentally tripped on the steps and almost fell down. Fortunately, he was helped by someone.

"Thank you!"

Dali Temple Qing raised his head and met a gorgeous face. A pair of gentle eyes looked at him with concern: "Are you okay, Mr. Zhou?"

"No...it's okay!" Dali Temple Qing looked at the person in front of him and was stunned for a moment before he remembered who he was.

The deceased Sheng Guogong was the adopted brother of the imperial concubine, and this one was the imperial concubine's biological brother. Unlike the face-loving and lively Duke Sheng Guogong, this Lord Du was very low-key and rarely showed his face, and his face was really unforgettable.

"Master, are you going to see your majesty?" the Dali Temple minister asked politely.

Du Yunjian smiled: "Yes."

He asked with concern: "I see you are restless, are you really okay?"

Mr. Zhou couldn't say anything. After all, the relationship between Sheng Guogong and this person was delicate. If Sheng Guogong died, this person might not necessarily think what he thought.

"It's okay, adults, please go quickly. I've also left the womb."

Du Yunjian smiled and nodded.

As soon as the Dali Temple Minister left, Du Yunjian's expression turned completely cold.

However, he entered the Hall of Light without staying any longer.

Dali Temple focused on the investigation of the male concubine brought back by Duke Sheng. At first, the Duke's palace was secretive, and it was not until they could no longer hide it that they revealed the person's origin.

"Did you bring it back from Mingyue Tower?"

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple thought of the old bustard guest Qingqing who had died in Mingyue Tower, and Jixiang who was hanged outside the city.All this seems to have something to do with Mingyue Tower.

Shaoqing asked: "What's your name? When did you bring it back?"

"It's been a while, but Madam was very careful about it, and the Duke was about to celebrate his birthday, so he kept it outside and only brought it back."

"He's so good-looking. He's so handsome that he looks like a flower. I've never seen such a good-looking man!"

"The name is...by the way, his name is Shen Yue. He calls himself Yue Slave. He doesn't like to talk and has a boring temper. At first we all thought he was mute."

"I'm not very tall, I think that's about it..."

"Others...I don't know. The Duke of Guo is very careful and no outsiders are allowed to disturb him."

Duke Sheng Guo really valued Shen Yue, and the only people who had seen him were the few who delivered the meals, so they couldn't give him any useful information.

Moreover, Duke Sheng Guo liked him very much. For him, he challenged the Duke's wife for the first time and accepted him into the mansion.

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple suddenly paused and asked: "Nafuzhong... Wasn't he not in the house before?"

The young man knew that he had made a mistake and did not dare to say more. The young minister of Dali Temple looked serious: "If you conceal it and don't report it, if the real murderer escapes, can you bear the responsibility?"

The boy's face turned pale, and he finally said tremblingly: "The Duke used to play, but he was never at home. He loved face and was afraid of people gossiping... He had a village in the suburbs, and everyone went there. There was no one in that remote place. Notice."

Dali Temple Shaoqing was keenly aware of something.

"Where is that Zhuangzi?"

The boy told me the location.

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple was very familiar with the suburbs of the city. He knew that Zhuangzi was less than five miles away from the place where Jixiang's body was dumped.

Is this a coincidence?
