Phoenix Nirvana: The King's Alluring Medical Concubine

Chapter 197
"I don't know what orders Shangguan sent to Cao Min and others?"

After Shangguan Jun ordered Pei Niang's body to be brought out, he said to the others: "We have two corpses here, you should try to find out which one is Xu's mother. If the old man finds out that you are lying, you will not be lightly forgiven."

"What? Mother Xu. Dead. Dead?"

One of the women suddenly said with a face full of shock and horror.

Before Shangguan Jun could speak, Pei Niang's body had already been brought over. Shangguan Jun asked several people to come forward and said, "You guys have to recognize it."

As soon as several people came forward, they smelled a very pungent smell, and covered their mouths one after another, only to see that the face of one of them was completely swollen, and only the outline of the face could be seen clearly.

"She is Mother Xu." The three men pointed to the corpse on the left and said in unison.

Hearing that, the two girls from Yanzhi Building immediately retorted, pointing to the corpse on the right and saying, "No, she is obviously Xu's mother."

The opinions of the two parties were completely inconsistent, which made Shangguan Jun frown. It was obvious that one of them was lying.

"How do you prove who is the real mother Xu?"

Before they could reply, the guard at the door suddenly came in to report——

"My lord, there is a man outside who claims to be able to prove the identity of Xu's mother, asking to see her."

"Let him in."

After a while, a haggard-faced man wearing a blue cloth gown came in. Shangguan Jun looked at the man suspiciously and asked, "You said you know who the real mother Xu is?"

"Yes, I know."

"Then come and see, who is Mother Xu?"

The man took a closer look, and immediately confirmed the identity of the corpse at a glance, but the corpse on the left said with certainty: "She is Mother Xu, even if it turns into ashes, I will recognize it."

The sudden appearance of the man made Shangguan Jun feel that it was a very coincidence, but now he said the same thing as the three just now, which made Shangguan Jun have to doubt.

"What evidence do you have that she is Mother Xu?"

The man didn't answer Shangguan Jun's question, but introduced himself, "My name is Duan Yan. My family used to own a restaurant. Later, the restaurant went bankrupt. I helped Yun'er leave the Rouge Building with my only property." Luoyang."

Before Shangguan Jun could speak, one of the three men suddenly said in surprise, "Duan Yan, you are the former owner of Shiquan Restaurant, Duan Yan?"

"Is that Duan Yan who used to be very generous at the Rouge Building?" Another man asked as if he remembered something.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Duan Yan carefully, then nodded and said: "It's him, he is Duan Yan, you just said that you took Miss Xia Yun away, that is to say, Miss Xia Yun did not become a palace official." The imperial concubine here?"

"Of course not, Yun'er has been staying with me, but a few days ago, she and her parents suddenly disappeared. I searched many places but couldn't find them. I wondered if they would return to the capital again. Now let’s take a look, who knows, just heard the rumor that Yun’er is a noble concubine, it’s really nonsense.”

"Master Duan, right? Then what evidence do you have to prove your identity?" Shangguan Jun was still unwilling to believe that Concubine Yun Gui was innocent.

Duan Yan laughed mockingly when he heard the words, and then said: "It's too easy to prove my identity. The staff in the restaurant, the owner of the restaurant, and the customers who used to eat in the restaurant can all prove it."

After speaking, Duan Yan suddenly thought of something, and said: "By the way, Admiral Li used to eat at my restaurant often, and he can prove it."
