The Qianji Building was filled with bookshelves. Every shelf was neatly stacked with dossiers over the years.

They were placed separately by time and place.

When Meng Xizhou found out that Yu Niaoniao was looking for the dossier on the Feng family’s annihilation in Jinguan City three years ago, he immediately brought her inside.

They stopped in front of a bookshelf.

“Here are the dossiers from Jinguan City three years ago. Let me help you find them.”

With that, Meng Xizhou placed the lantern on the ground and began to search them one by one.

Yu Niaoniao also helped to search.

Soon, they found the dossier with the words “Feng family annihilation case”.

Yu Niaoniao quickly opened the cloth cover, took out the scroll, and unfolded it.

She read it carefully in the dim candlelight.

The funeral procession of the Sixth Prince and Noble Consort Shu set off from the palace and finally arrived at the Imperial Mausoleum and the Imperial Concubine’s Mausoleum.

Fortunately, the Imperial Mausoleum was not far from the Concubine Mausoleum. Everyone first went to the Imperial Mausoleum, then to the Concubine Mausoleum.

The emperor, the empress, and the empress dowager were not present. This time, the person in charge was the fourth prince.

Xiao Juan mixed in the crowd and bowed to the tombstone with everyone.

When all the procedures were completed, everyone took off their linen clothes and burned the twine. They left the Imperial Mausoleum in groups and prepared to go home.

Xiao Juan was about to mount his horse when he was stopped.

“Duke Lang, please wait.”

Xiao Juan stopped what he was doing and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw Seventh Prince Shen Zhuo.

He had already learned from Niaoniao that Shen Zhuo was Shen Junzhi and knew that this guy had unusual thoughts about Niaoniao.

Xiao Juan asked expressionlessly, “What’s the matter, Seventh Prince?”

Shen Zhuo still did not look too good. He looked a little sick and weak. His voice was soft, and he looked very refined.

“I don’t have anything else. I just want to ask how Niaoniao is. Yesterday, I saw that she didn’t look too good. She didn’t seem to be feeling well. I was worried about her.”

Xiao Juan’s expression and tone became even colder.

“She’s fine. You don’t have to worry.”

Shen Zhuo looked relieved. “I’m glad she’s fine. I’m relieved.”

“If there’s nothing else, Seventh Prince, I’ll take my leave first.”

Shen Zhuo looked at his obvious hostility and recalled that Niaoniao would rather choose him than him. He felt inexplicably jealous.

Shen Zhuo could not help but ask, “Don’t you want to ask about my relationship with Niaoniao?”

Xiao Juan said coldly, “Niaoniao told me about you two. She said that you lied to her.”

Shen Zhuo laughed at himself. “She really trusts you. She tells you everything.”

Then, he changed the topic and asked, “Then do you know why Niaoniao married you?”

Xiao Juan said, “Of course, it’s because the emperor bestowed a marriage.”

Shen Zhuo smiled, “Of course, it’s not that simple. Do you want to know why?”

Xiao Juan was already a little impatient, but because of the other party’s status, he could only endure it.

“Seventh Prince, please speak your mind. Don’t beat around the bush.”

Shen Zhuo said slowly, “There’s something you might not know yet. On the day Niaoniao married you, I saw her. I asked her if she was willing to come with me.”

He saw a very obvious change in Xiao Juan’s expression.

He immediately understood that Niaoniao did not tell Xiao Juan about this.

Xiao Juan indeed did not know.

Back then, Niaoniao only said that she had been kidnapped by Che Xuekun, but she did not mention Shen Zhuo.

The smile on Shen Zhuo’s face deepened. “At that time, I told Niaoniao that as long as she was willing to come with me, I could help her leave the Imperial Capital and start a new life incognito. However, she was unwilling. She told me that she had to stay by Duke Lang’s side because…”

When he said this, he deliberately paused.

As he wished, he saw Xiao Juan frown and become nervous.

After waiting for a long time without an answer, Xiao Juan could not help but ask.

“Because of what?”

Even though he knew that the other party had ill intentions, Xiao Juan still wanted to know the reason. He wanted to know everything about Niaoniao!

Shen Zhuo enunciated each word in a voice only the two of them could hear.

“Because she wants to investigate the Feng family’s annihilation back then. You’re in charge of the Justice Department. It’s better for her to pursue the truth if you stay by your side.”

“At the end of the day, the reason she was willing to marry you was not that she had feelings for you, but because she wanted to use your identity.”

“If you weren’t Duke Lang, if you weren’t in charge of the Justice Department, she wouldn’t have married you at all.”

Every word of his was filled with malice, stabbing into Xiao Juan’s heart like a sharp knife.

Xiao Juan did not want to believe that this was true.

In his anger, he forgot who they were and grabbed Shen Zhuo by the lapels.

“Shut up! It’s not what you say at all!”

When the surrounding people saw this scene, they surrounded him and pulled him away.

“Duke Lang, don’t mess around. His Highness is weak. If he’s injured by you, how are you going to explain it to the emperor and the empress?!”

Xiao Juan was forced to let go of Shen Zhuo.

He watched as Shen Zhuo revealed a weak appearance and spoke to the people around him.

“I’m fine. Duke Lang only did this in a moment of desperation. Don’t blame him.”

Xiao Juan clenched his fists. As he had too many emotions suppressed in his heart, the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

Everyone was frightened by his murderous look and shut their mouths, not daring to say anything else about him. However, they were even more certain that Duke Lang was arrogant and even dared to bully the Seventh Prince. Unfortunately, the Seventh Prince’s temper was too good. He did not even say anything when he was bullied and even spoke up for Duke Lang.

Shen Zhuo covered his mouth and nose with a silk handkerchief and coughed lightly.

“Everyone, disperse. Duke Lang, go back quickly. The Princess Consort is still waiting for you at home.”

Everyone was afraid that Duke Lang would still attack the Seventh Prince and insisted on waiting for him to leave.

After everyone dispersed, only a few guards in charge of guarding the Imperial Mausoleum and Xiao Juan were left.

Xiao Juan silently mounted his horse and rode back to the Imperial Capital.

He did not believe Shen Zhuo. Not a word.

He was going back to ask Niaoniao.

At the same time, Yu Niaoniao had already finished reading the dossier on the Feng family’s annihilation.

In the end, as Xiao Juan had said, she could not find any useful clues.

Come to think of it, if there were clues, this case would not have been closed as an accident.

Coincidentally, an Eagle Guard came to look for Meng Xizhou and said that he had something to ask him to go over.

Meng Xizhou hesitated. “I’m going out for a while. Can the Princess Consort stay here alone?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Go ahead. I’ll go out myself after I see it.”

“Yes, I’ll get going then.”

Meng Xizhou left the Qianji Building in a hurry.

As soon as he left, Yu Niaoniao put the dossier back.

She carried the lantern inside and reached the entrance to the stairs.

One could go up this staircase to the second floor.

According to Xiao Juan, everything upstairs was confidential.

Among them should be records of Xiao Juan leading the Eagle Guards to Jinguan City for a mission three years ago..
