Chapter 152: Self-immolation

Before dawn, the news of the fire in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion spread throughout the Western Capital.

For the people of the Western Capital, who are accustomed to comfort, the news that more than 100 people in the Dadu Governor's Mansion were buried in the sea of fire is too appalling.

The genius was bright, and all that was left was the ruined well, and the area around the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was full of early risers.

The people who had previously taken the news of the violent death of the Metropolitan Governor Wang Rui as a talking point were silent, and people seemed to be frightened by this tragic fire all of a sudden, and only watched silently.

Outside the Governor's Palace, there was a ring of heavily armored Praetorian Guards.

The open space near the west side of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was filled with charred corpses snatched from the fire.

Snow-white silk cloth covered an unrecognizable wreckage.

Xu Huining supported the crying mother and led the five crying sisters who were trembling and looked at the white cloth one by one.

Other relatives of the Wang family are also crying and looking for them like the Xu family, hoping to find their relatives and children.

Of course, there are also many elderly people in coarse cloth clothes who are trembling and looking for them. Their sons and daughters, or their relatives and friends, who were on errand in the Governor's Palace, did not escape the terrible fire.

Though it was all light, the sun did not come out.

The gray sky, the endless wailing, such a tragic scene is unprecedented for the people of Xidu.

Looking at the tragic scene in front of him, Hu Qingqiang held back his tears and held on to the ginkgo tree on the side.

Although the news was obtained in the middle of the night, Mrs. Qingguo insisted on keeping Hu Qing until dawn before allowing him to leave the house.

"Second master!" Zhao Yongji looked at Hu Qing with a sad face: "There is no news of Xiao Hong'er, I am afraid that he will also ......"

"Hey!" Xing Shuolin sighed: "I really didn't expect the Wang family to suffer such a catastrophe! ”

Zhao Yongji flattened his mouth: "Father Shang said." The cause of the fire will definitely be found!"

Xing Shuolin looked at Hu Qing with a sad face and said softly: "Second master, you better go back!"

Hu Qing withdrew his empty eyes, lowered his eyes and sighed slightly, and hurried towards the periphery.

Hu Qing frowned, and only took a few steps before he met a pair of eyes full of surprise.

Shen Mingyan, who was wearing a cyan dress in the crowd, stared at a pair of big eyes, staring at the ashes of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion with a few wisps of green smoke.

Shen Pengrun's face was concerned, and he grabbed Shen Mingyan's shoulder with one hand as if to prevent her from rushing in.

A little farther away, Zhou Rong and Li Tianbao, dressed in black, were walking towards Shen Mingyan.

Hu Qing walked a few steps and came to Shen Mingyan: "Sister, why are you here too?"

Shen Mingyan looked at Hu Qingmulan and asked, "How are the people?"

Hu Qing shook his head silently.

"How could it be?" Shen Mingyan couldn't help but take a few steps back. Most of the people in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion are good at kung fu! Light skills should not be bad! What is the reason why they have not escaped from the sea of fire?

"Why won't it be!" Zhou Rong also walked closer, squinting a pair of deep eyes and looking at the ashes of the Wang family from afar, and said in a deep voice: "They just want to set fire, how can they escape! ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Hu Qing looked at Zhou Rong with grief and indignation and roared: "Who would be stupid enough to set himself on fire! Not to mention that Wang Ye is upright and in his prime. Shan Hong'er was just fifteen years old. He is the strongest in nature, and he will seek death?"

Zhou Rong replied without squinting: "Naturally, he is a person who has come to a desperate situation and wants to survive!"

"Sister, let's go!" Hu Qing felt that Zhou Rong was already unreasonable. Reaching out to grab Shen Mingyan's wrist. I don't want to be stopped by Shen Pengrun.

"You go first, don't pull my third sister!" Shen Pengrun looked at Shen Ming's sad appearance. The voice was also a lot softer.

Early in the morning, she learned the news of the fire of the Metropolitan Governor, and Shen Mingyan asked Shen Pengrun to accompany her over.

It's more tragic than you imagined.

In that tragic experience, could the courtyard look so horrible after it was burned! Are the bodies of her and her mother also charred and unrecognizable?

Fire!

Did General Li also come to a desperate situation when he set himself on fire back then?

Shen Mingyan couldn't help but look at Zhou Rong.

Zhou Rong's face sank like water. Looking at the ashes and corpses not far away.

Shen Mingyan could see that Zhou Rong's brows were tightly locked, and her lips were pursed, as if she was restraining the strong churning of emotions.

Mother!

My mother has experienced the fire herself, and hearing the news of the fire in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion at this moment will definitely affect the emotions that have been withheld for many years, and I don't know how sad she will be at this moment! Daddy was called back by the people in the mansion in the east early in the morning, how is it good for her to be alone at home at this moment!

Thinking of this, Shen Mingyan grabbed Shen Pengrun: "Second brother, go home!"

Shen Pengrun followed Shen Mingyan's footsteps and rushed out of the crowd.

Hu Qingcai was about to catch up, but was stopped by Zhou Rong: "Don't you want to find out the cause of the Wang family's fire?"

"Hey!" Zhao Yongji had already rushed to Hu Qing's side: "I said Boss Zhou, why are you so hard-hearted, and you are used to sprinkling salt on people's wounds! The cause is that the king and the monk's father have concluded that our second master is not a detective, how does he know! You have the ability, you can find out for yourself!"

"Okay!" Hu Qing frowned and said to Zhao Yongji: "You go and persuade Huining, I'll go back!"

"Okay!" Zhao Yongji said, but his eyes were staring at Zhou Rong: "Second master, don't worry about going back, what kind of moth does this surnamed Zhou come up with!"

It's just that before he could finish speaking, he was pinched by Li Tianbao and lifted up.

Li Tianbao's eyes were blood-red, and his hands were even more ruthless.

Zhao Yongji only felt that his throat was tight, and he didn't have time to make a sound, and his hands and feet grabbed involuntarily.

Hu Qing glared at Zhou Rong angrily and said, "You!"

Zhou Rong stretched out his hand and patted Li Tianbao: "Let him down!" Let's go, go see your mother!"

"Hmph!" Li Tianbao threw Zhao Yongji out, turned around and walked away.

Although Li Tianbao has no tangible memory of the fire, he is very familiar with the choking smell!

Looking at the backs of Li Tianbao and Zhou Rong leaving, Zhao Yongji rubbed his neck with his hands and coughed desperately: "Second Master, who are they, why are they so arrogant! How can you put up with it?" This Boss Zhou is not a good stubble at first glance, in such a tragic situation of the Wang family's fire, he still does not forget to grab the beauty with Hu Erye, it is really cold-blooded! Zhao Yongji is puzzled, how can Hu Erye endure them?

The onlookers were also attracted by the struggle of Zhao Yongji, and they all looked at the back of Zhou Rong and Li Tianbao leaving.

The person who dares to be presumptuous in front of Hu Erye is definitely not an ordinary person!

People couldn't help but whisper.

What did the man say about the cause of the fire?

Could it be that Father Shang arranged for him to investigate the cause of the fire? Therefore, there is no need to sell the face of Second Master Hu?

Seeing that everyone had looked over, Hu Qing pushed Zhao Yongji away and strode out of the crowd! )
