A fire broke out in Yanyu Tower, and there were many casualties, not only did the news spread throughout the court, but even the emperor was alarmed. Emperor Liang Yinhao ordered the Kyoto Prefecture to conduct a thorough investigation of the matter, and to give a definite answer as soon as possible, whether it was man-made or accidental.

After Fu Yin Changlu received this hot potato, he couldn't say that he was bitter in his heart. A few days ago, the head of the government came to report that a large amount of traces of fire oil had been found around the Yanyu Building, and the speed of the fire spread so quickly that it could be concluded that the fire was not an accident, but someone deliberately set fire to the building.

But who would do that? And for what purpose? Seeking revenge? Love killing? Or robbery? The answer is unknown. Chang Lu had almost already sent his manpower to work overtime to search for more evidence near Yanyu Building, and also interrogated many residents and shops in the surrounding area, but found nothing. The murderer's hands and feet are very clean, and now there is no clue at all except that he knows that someone deliberately set the fire.

But just when Evergreen was at a loss, a person came to the Kyoto Prefecture, a witness who turned things around!

The man who came to Kyoto was named Li Kai, who claimed to be an errand boy in Yanyulou and the only survivor who narrowly escaped the fire. And the reason why he came to the Kyoto Prefecture was to report to the officials and avenge himself and his dead companions, because he knew the true identity of the arsonist!

Chang Lu was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair after hearing the whole story, and from the moment he heard Li Kai say the name of the murderer, Chang Lu knew that he couldn't handle this case. So he made a quick decision, ordered Li Kai to be taken into custody, sorted out all the files, and immediately rushed to the criminal department.

Since the case involved court officials, and the rank was much larger than that of Chang Lu, the Fu Yin, all the cases were naturally pushed to the Criminal Department. At first, Chang Lu was worried that Tong Yuan of the Criminal Department would not accept the case, after all, Tong Yuan's cowardice and fear of things were well-known in the court. But what Chang Lu didn't expect was that this time Tong Yuan would change his normal behavior, take the case happily, and immediately put the witness Li Kai in the prison of the Criminal Department.

Although Chang Lu felt suspicious in his heart, after all, the hot potato was successfully thrown out, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, as for how this case would be tried later, it was none of his business. When Chang Lu left the criminal department, he raised his head slightly, and it was still sunny weather, and suddenly it began to rain sporadically. He sighed heavily, and said in his heart: In this spring season, the weather really changes! ”

After the Criminal Department took over the case, Tong Yuan was extremely efficient, sorted out all the confessions and evidence in less than two days, and personally took the witness Li Kai to the palace.

Liang Yinhuan sat in the Qinzheng Hall and listened carefully to the report of Rui Wang Liang Yinhuan on various matters and situations in the court and the central government in recent days. Since Liang Yinhao's regency, the affairs of the DPRK and China have been taken care of by him in an orderly manner, and Liang Yinhao almost doesn't have to bother about it, which naturally makes Liang Yinhao feel good.

At this time, the chief eunuch Yan Gonggong tiptoed into the main hall, bowed his head and whispered: "Your Majesty, King Yurui, Lord Shangshutong of the Criminal Department asks to see you." ”

"Tell him that I am discussing things with King Rui, and let him wait outside."

Yan Yong glanced at King Rui in embarrassment, and said, "But... But Tong said it was urgent. ”

Liang Yinhao snorted impatiently and scolded: "What else can he be in a hurry?!" ”

Liang Yinhuan saw that the atmosphere was embarrassing, so he hurriedly went out to help Yan Yong, and said, "Brother Huang, let's pass on Lord Tong to come in, maybe there is something important!" It doesn't hurt to hear it!"

Liang Yinhao waved his hand helplessly, signaling Yan Yong to bring people in, but he thought coldly in his heart: It's best that this Tong Yuan really has something urgent, otherwise I will definitely let him have no good fruit to eat! ――

Huo Pei'an sat in the Prime Minister's Mansion with his eyes closed, almost silently in the morning, looking like a sleeping old man from a distance, but the irregular breathing on his chest revealed his restlessness at the moment. Huo Pei'an waited anxiously, waiting for an answer, waiting for an ending, an ending that he had been waiting for for a long, long time.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a strange commotion to come from outside the house, Huo Pei'an immediately got up and went to check, and the person who came was Yan Yong, the chief eunuch beside the emperor. Huo Pei'an suddenly rejoiced when he saw the other party's angry look, it seems that the matter has been done!

Yan Yong only saluted roughly and hurriedly after seeing Huo Pei'an, so he hurriedly urged: "Prime Minister, please follow the servants into the palace, the emperor is in a hurry to see you!" ”

Huo Pei'an pretended to be surprised and asked, "The emperor wants to see me?" What the hell is going on? Why does Father-in-law Yan look so anxious? ”

"I don't know what the specific thing is, but I heard that it seems to be related to the fire that happened in the capital two days ago. The emperor is furious and anxious to see you, and even King Rui is now waiting in the palace of diligent administration! Prime Minister, let's hurry up and go! ”

Huo Pei'an pretended to squeeze out a hypocritical expression of shock and fear from his face, but he was secretly happy in his heart, and after a little tidying up, he dared to go to the palace with Yan Yong. When they walked to the gate of the Qinzheng Palace, the two happened to meet Yin Zheng, the commander of the forbidden army, who came to inspect. Since the queen and Concubine Chen are well-known rivals in the palace, as the fathers of the two, they naturally do not regard each other as friends, but Huo Pei'an still maintains a modest attitude on his face, after all, the other party is the commander of the forbidden army who is deeply trusted by the emperor, and it will not be good for him to really tear his face. Huo Pei'an said politely: "Commander Yin is also here!" I wonder what happened in the Diligent Administration Hall today? ”

Yin Zheng also smiled fakely: "The lower officials don't know, I just heard that not long after the child of the Criminal Department entered, the emperor was furious and urgently summoned General Qiao and others into the palace for questioning." I didn't expect even Lord Huo to come, it seems that this matter is really not a trivial matter! ”

Huo Pei'an was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that the emperor would also summon Qiao Yuanshan into the palace. If the emperor believed the testimony of the witnesses and decided that King Rui was the real murderer of the arson, why would the emperor send Qiao Yuanshan into the palace this time?

Don't......

Huo Pei felt an ominous premonition rise in his heart, and his back suddenly began to feel a little chill down his back, and he took a deep breath and walked straight towards the inner hall of the Qinzheng Palace. As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw Qiao Yuanshan, Rui Wang and Tong Yuan and his party kneeling all over the place, and the atmosphere was heavy and weird. (To be continued.) )
