174. Chapter 173
From the previous life to this life, Mo Li is probably most concerned about the cause of his father and mother's death, and then finds the enemy to take revenge. The death of the brave general back then was too bizarre, and the people around him couldn't see clearly in the clouds, until Mo Liang got the help of the Four Seasons Villa, he was able to touch the matter step by step, but after all, the death distance of the general has been many years now, and many evidences have gradually been lost under the frequent transfer of the military camp, so who did it and who did it, Mo Liang can't be confirmed.
But this time, Fu Ningzhun brought back the news that the little guy who had been with General Xiaoyong actually appeared in the county and township near the border pass, and this little guy should have died in a battle.
The scattered adjutant, the little guy who has followed him for many years, and Mo Li's discovery of the southern poison produced in Prince Liang's fiefdom, this link by link, seeing that the cause of Mo Li's mother's death was about to be revealed, only to find out the person behind it, the emperor suddenly died. Judging from the observation of Acacia during this time, the emperor is obviously in the prime of life, the queen has not yet been established, and his body is naturally in the best condition, and he has never heard Mo Li talk about what hidden diseases he has, so behind such a hasty death, poison must be a possibility of the cause of death.
If the emperor was really poisoned...... Mo Fence is in the palace, so it's dangerous.
"What are you going to do?" Li Yunluo thought about pulling the curtain when she saw it, and said hurriedly.
Acacia was distraught and said, "I'm going to go to the palace to have a look." ”
"They're waiting for you, how can you throw yourself into the net?" Li Yunluo knew that Acacia was already panicking at this time, so she hurriedly grabbed her and said: "Mo Gongzi is so smart and will definitely find a way to get out, only if you are well, everyone will be fine!" ”
Acacia's palms were wet, and she said nervously: "Big brother and Mo Li are both in the palace...... What if it ......"
"No whatever!" Li Yunluo held Acacia's shoulder and said: "You have always been the most stable and calm among all of us, this time, you can't panic either!" ”
Acacia looked at the persistence in Li Yunluo's eyes, and slowly calmed down, at this time, there were fewer and fewer people on the street, and the sound of soldiers shouting to open the door could be heard in the distance.
The emperor is really dead, and Chen Guojing is really in chaos.
Li Yunluo couldn't take the liberty of bringing Acacia back to the house, so she could only hide her in a hidden house temporarily, Acacia naturally knew her difficulties, and she could rush to report the news as soon as she learned the news, which was already a complete sister's friendship. If you do too much, Acacia is also afraid of affecting the Yujun Palace, after all, if the prime minister gains power, the royal clan will not have a good time in the future.
Temporarily settled down, Li Yunluo didn't dare to sit more and changed the carriage and secretly left, she was going to go to her grandfather's house to live for a few days first, and then make plans to see the situation.
This mansion was originally just a place for a wealthy family to settle down temporarily, and then had to sell it because of the failure of the investment, and returned to the countryside with his wife and children, and then he didn't know how many ways to fall into the hands of the king of Yujun, originally just planned to make a dowry for Li Yunluo, but now it has become a temporary refuge for Acacia.
When she entered the house, she didn't dare to go out, even if she was worried that Mo Liang wanted to go out of the city gate and rush to her ancestral house on the outskirts of Beijing, but she was just a woman, and the people outside the prime minister might still be looking for her, in order not to throw herself into the net, Acacia not only did not go out but also did not allow pomegranates to go out.
One day, two days, three days, Acacia watched the sun rise and set every day, the atmosphere in Kyoto became more and more tense, even the street where the merchants lived was often interrogated, she had been waiting for Ersie to return, thinking that he could bring news of Mobi and relatives, but more than half a month passed, but no one came to the door, she became more and more impatient, and the idea of going out became stronger and stronger day by day.
It's just that before she couldn't restrain herself from wanting to go out to inquire about the news, God forced her to leave the house.
"Girl! The girl is not good, there is a fire! Pomegranate woke her up with fear after Acacia fell asleep easily.
Acacia was so shocked that he rolled out of bed, seeing the smoke billowing in the west, the fire soaring into the sky, and the air was filled with a choking smell. Acacia now lives in the merchant's small three-way house, which is very close to the next door, and even the street in the middle is narrow and difficult to walk, so the fire has burned next door, even if many people put out the fire outside, it is difficult to stop the fire from engulfing.
Acacia couldn't sit still any longer, she took the soft and pomegranate and the rest of the house, rushed out of the arch of the front yard that had been lit, and ran towards the gate, outside which many people had already gathered, and everyone was passing buckets to extinguish the fire.
Wrap your head in a cloth towel, Acacia is already petite, and then put on a wide shirt to look like a small child, pomegranate also covered his mouth and nose with a cloth towel, both of them are wearing the most ordinary cloth clothes, at first glance they think they are girls in this house.
"Is there anyone in there?" When the people outside saw them rushing out, they hurriedly asked.
Acacia roughly calculated, and said in his heart: "No, no, our master went to the field to stock up a while ago." ”
The streets were full of neighbors, much more intimate than the eunuchs, and although they couldn't remember who the owner of the house was, they still tried very hard to put out the fire.
"O iniquity! It's just a dog from the Prime Minister's Mansion, just like that! ”
Acacia stood in the crowd and watched Li Yunluo's house licked by the flames, leaving scorched black marks, but her ears were listening to the not-so-whispered conversations in the crowd. This fire is really not an accident, it was the merchant who sold wood in the west who offended a small official under the prime minister's door at some point, and he had a relationship in the palace before and disdained the little official, but now that the emperor has died, the palace has long been in chaos, and the little official naturally thought that the prime minister would win, so he hurriedly came to the door to take revenge. He originally only wanted to burn down the timber merchant's storehouse, but who knew that the fire ruthlessly burned directly down the beams into the yard of the neighbor's house, and so on, one after another, burned down the place where the acacia settled.
"Girl, what can I do? Where are we staying tonight? "Pomegranate is beating a drum in her heart, will they stay on the streets without a house?
Acacia is also very worried, she ran out, do you still want to find someone she knew in the past to live temporarily? Not to mention whether she will fall into the mouth of the tiger, if she provokes the prime minister, then she is a sinner.
After pondering carefully, Acacia was ready to go to the inn privately run by Four Seasons Villa, at least this place was what Mo Li had told her, and she also hoped that she could find a safe place when she was in danger and wait for him to come to the rescue.
Acacia has no carriage, there is only Pomegranate alone, if the other people in the house follow Acacia, I am afraid that it will attract the attention of the prime minister, so these people can only find other places to live temporarily, and only when the fire has passed can they report to the county king's mansion.
The two girls quietly walked out of the crowd with some softness, it was already dark at this time, and Acacia had to help each other with pomegranates when he walked, otherwise he would probably fall and climb with a dog.
"Shh As soon as Acacia came up with this seven-mile bend of the alley, he saw a group of people wearing armor and holding torches, the style of this armor Acacia had seen, which was worn by the guards she brought when the girl of the Wei family took her sister to show off her martial arts that day.
"Didn't you come to arrest us?" Pomegranate asked in a trembling voice, not much louder than a mosquito.
"I don't know, it should be more than just arresting us." Cheng said that she would definitely exclude dissidents, and her uncle and fourth uncle didn't know what the situation was.
"What are we going to do? The house was gone, and the carriage was burned. Pomegranate said worriedly, halfway through sleep, this is the most sleepy time.
Just as Acacia was about to explain the inn under the name of the Four Seasons Villa, suddenly the guards who had already left turned back to the street, and even ran in the direction of the two of them, and Acacia could see the looks and expressions of these guards clearly.
"Girl! What can I do? "Pomegranate was so scared that it rained like sweat.
"Hey! You two! ”
Acacia was startled, and when she turned around, she saw a person waving to them on the other side of the alley. This person is about thirty years old, wearing a floral dress, with a plump body and a round face, and an aunt with eyes narrowed into a thin line.
Pomegranate hesitated to walk over, but Acacia was afraid of these guards, and as soon as his head was hot, he ran to the aunt with Pomegranate.
"You guys are really dead, when are you going to go out!" The aunt looked around vigilantly as she spoke, and said, "It's better to follow me, so as not to be discovered by these soldiers." ”
"Girl......" Pomegranate felt that something was not quite right, so she tugged at Acacia's sleeve to stop her.
Acacia didn't bother to follow anyone along, so he asked, "Who are you?" How did you happen to be here? "At this hour, there were so many people gathered in the alley except for the fire before, but now that they have run here, they never thought that they would meet living people.
The aunt saw that Acacia was so cautious, obviously unwilling to follow her, she was a little anxious, and then she heard the footsteps of the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion to know that it was not far from here, and in desperation, she had to say honestly: "The county lord and the slave maid should go in the carriage together, otherwise it will be too late." ”
"Do you know who I am?" Acacia is even more afraid to move.
"The slave maid is the descendant of the old people around the princess Niangniang, and she is especially ordered to protect the county lord, the county lord should hurry up and follow the slave and maid, otherwise it will be difficult to be caught by them and want to leave."
Acacia can only be reluctant to do so, she took the pomegranate out of the intersection behind the alley, sure enough, there was a very inconspicuous carriage, Acacia gritted her teeth and opened the curtain and walked up, she didn't know what she would meet if she followed, but no matter what she met, she firmly believed that she could wait until Mo Li returned.
