Chen Zhong couldn't figure it out in his heart, but he still had to calm down to appease the old owners and little masters of a room. Then he stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look at the place where the fire was rising, and said with a smile: "Today is the Shangyuan Festival, and it is a firecracker and a lantern, I think the children in the family are not careful, and they can't take care of it for a while, and there is something that pops up with the sparks." The old lady and the old lady sit □□ heart, and the little one goes out to take a look. ”

If it was really Mars that burned something, where did the sound of swords come from? Chen Zhong's words also bluffed children under the age of three who were ignorant of the world, anyway, everyone here, including the second sister, didn't believe it.

And because there was chaos ahead, everyone in the Chen family became more and more worried about Chen Qi's safety. Old Mrs. Chen is even more afraid that there will be a bunch of bandits in front of him, and another person will enter the inner house from the root of the back wall, and the chaos will be big.

So he ordered Chen Zhong to take care of the children in the nursing home to take care of them in the second gate. In the outer courtyard, there are also brocade soldiers who sit down to eat and drink - if it comes to martial arts, these people are much better than ordinary children who take care of the house. What's more, these people were originally sent by Lord Zhao, the commander of the Jinyi Army, to protect Chen Qi and the Chen family, so they must put Chen Qi's safety first. Therefore, Mrs. Chen is not very worried about the outside world - but then again, this is just to comfort herself.

After all, the one who stayed in front of him was his own son-in-law, and now he is facing the danger of adding a knife and axe and setting fire to kill people, everyone is Chen Qi's closest relatives, how can they not worry. It's just that these people are old and young, even if they are worried, they don't dare to run to the front to check, it's not to help, but to add to the chaos.

The current situation is only to guard the back house like ants on a hot pot.

Not to mention how the family members of the Hou Mansion were worried, Chen Zhong was also busy taking his children into the second gate to inspect - especially under the wall of the outer street. But this time, Mrs. Chen was too worried. Those abductors escaped from the flower street, because they were angry for a while, and they tangled up a group of familiar ruffians to find revenge in the Chen Mansion, which was just a temporary idea.

I was going to set a fire, but I ran south to avoid the limelight. At that time, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, Feng Siye has his back against the big tree to enjoy the shade, and Chen Qi is a seven-grade donation official, and it is not easy to arrest them.

With this in mind, those abductors didn't think about really hurting people's lives. It's just that everyone ran eagerly first, and they didn't know what happened later. Naturally, I didn't know that the rampant abduction attracted the real dragon, and Chen Jue stammered with Zhao Bihe, then Zhao Bihe was thoughtful, and sent a team of brocade soldiers to escort Chen's family members, and Chen Jue came home and left people to eat and drink.

Even later, the Jinyi army ate too much wine and went out to release water, because he was lazy to go to the thatched house, he opened the way and the kid who led the way found a random place under the wall, and smelled the strong smell of fire oil, so he followed the vine and found this group of abductors, which are also a few coincidences.

After discovering that the thieves were in rebellion, the brocade-clothed army had to shout and publicize, and then led everyone to come forward and meet each other. Even though that gang of abductors is cruel, the martial arts under their hands are not as good as the serious military masters, not to mention that the movement of the Chen Mansion is so big, it attracts neighbors to go out to check, and the soldiers who patrol and search the city also follow the sound. After the soldiers and horses of each house converged, the group of abductors saw that they could not do anything, so they had to be arrested.

After about four or five meals, the agitation in the outer courtyard gradually died down, and the fire in the sky was extinguished. Seeing this, Old Lady Chen hurriedly sent the kid to the front to check. Only then did I know that I was safe.

When Old Lady Chen heard this, her heart that had always been hanging was slightly put into her stomach, and she couldn't help but be afraid again. Hurriedly rushed to the front yard, and thanked several Jinyi soldiers as the owner and the elderly, and thanked the neighbors who fought for righteousness and the soldiers who arrived in time.

Chen Jue looked for a vacancy, and secretly instructed Chen Zhong to prepare a rich gift to reward everyone.

After this toss, the sky has already brightened. The people in the Chen Mansion were so busy that they didn't sleep all night. Seeing that the gate of Chen's mansion and the walls of the outer courtyard were blackened by fire oil, almost falling into decay, and they didn't look the same at all, Chen Qi was angry and chaotic.

He really didn't expect that he was just kind-hearted to break the kidnapping behavior and lead to such a group of vicious bandits. I didn't expect this gang of bandits to be so bold that they dared to really endanger the officials of the imperial court. Such acts are truly appalling.

Zhao Bihe, the commander of the brocade army, also heard about this from his subordinates. At this moment, I can't help but be happy and afraid. Fortunately, he expected the enemy first, and had already sent Jinyi soldiers and horses to escort Chen Qi's house, which stopped the arson and injury of the group of abductors in time. It also avoided the impeachment of him for negligence and even collusion with bandits.

What I'm afraid of is that if he doesn't do it today, the fire of this group of abductors will not only burn down the door wall of Chen's house, but I am afraid that even he and the crown prince will not be able to bypass the impeachment of Yanguan Yushi and the climbing of people with intentions.

Thinking about it like this, Zhao Bi and Feng Siye, who was going to make trouble more and more, hated the roots of his teeth. Fortunately, last night, Zhao Bihe had already instructed his subordinates to arrest Feng Siye and his group in time. Although a group of ruffians were stuffed into the edict prison of the Jinyi army, it really tarnished the reputation of the edict. However, when he thought of the trouble that Feng Si caused him and the crown prince, Zhao Bihe still ordered his powerful henchman to "greet 'Feng Siye'".

At the same time, it is rare to send someone to ventilate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The two "monarchs and ministers" were prepared to deal with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the imperial historians, and the people with a heart in a happy state.

The next day was the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and it was also the first great court meeting of the imperial court in the past year. Chen Qi, as a seven-product donation official of the household department, is not qualified to participate in politics in the court. He doesn't even have the qualifications to listen to politics. However, Chen Qi is sure that at today's court meeting, although he Chen Qi is not there, someone will inevitably mention his Chen Qi name.

Because of the incident during the Lantern Festival yesterday, and because of the Lantern Festival, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Third Prince had few words, but they had already revealed that their faces and hearts did not match.

Today's saint is more than half a hundred years old, although he is eloquent but his energy is gradually decreasing, just like the sunset on the waning mountains, the tiger with soft teeth and sharp claws. But the sons are growing in their wings, like eagles that want to fly and want to conquer the sky.

In all dynasties, the old news of the Heavenly Family seizing the heir has always been common. The soldiers are not bloody, but they hide killing opportunities, become kings and defeat the kings, and the clouds and mud overnight. The princes who are high above are based on their lives, and those important ministers of the imperial court who have capital to bet on the relatives of the emperor are all standing in the court, this kind of scene is similar to the black miasma at the entrance of the West Street, desperately shaking the dice and pushing the pai gow casino, but this gamble is not all kinds of gamblers are qualified to participate.

At least, Chen Qi before yesterday didn't have that qualification. There is not even a place to hide behind everyone and wave flags and shout.

But after today...... It's hard to say!

After going to the yamen, Chen Jue took leave to the ministry on the grounds that there were still trivial matters to deal with at home. The news in the circle in Beijing has always spread quickly. Therefore, everyone has heard about the Chen Mansion's disaster last night, and they know the causes and consequences of the Chen family's saint on Flower Street yesterday.

Therefore, there are those who envy Chen Jue's fate, and there are also those who sympathize with Chen Jue's unprovoked misfortune, and some people secretly guess that Chen Jue took the opportunity to climb the high branches, and he is jealous of his rich future. In any case, Chen Qi at this time deserves to be sent some favors by everyone with one eye closed. What's more, what happened to Chen Qi's family could have been taken off.

So the clerks of the household department went through all the formalities for Chen Qi to take leave, and they comforted him endlessly. This scene of holding a hot stove looks like Chen Jue's family has been on leave due to a disaster, but it looks like he has been promoted to a job.

Chen Jue thanked his colleagues with all his might, and agreed with Xu Zichuan to go to his house for dinner and wine the day after tomorrow, so he didn't mention it.

After returning home and sitting quietly and thinking about it, Chen Jue instructed Chen Zhong to prepare a generous gift, he wanted to rush Zhao Bi and the next court, go to the house, and thank Zhao Bihe in person for saving his life. This is also the proper meaning of the question - if there is no team of brocade-clothed soldiers and horses sent by Zhao Bihe, I am afraid that the situation of the Chen Mansion yesterday would be different. Therefore, it is reasonable for Chen Qi to go to Zhao Bi and the mansion to thank him in person.

Besides, Chen Jue's trouble, in the final analysis, provoked the kidnapper Feng Sicai. That Feng Si acted under the banner of the prince again. Although it was finally proved that this matter had nothing to do with the prince, it involved the prince's inner house, and even if the prince tried his best to justify it, he would have to delay the charge of "the royal family was not strict". If someone takes advantage of this to make a living, the trivial matter becomes a big one, and it is involved in the court and the state from the back house of the market, intending to make the prince faceless......

As the prince of the country, the prince is deeply favored by His Majesty, and he will definitely not be hurt by such a trivial matter, but even if he makes a fuss because of this, he will go back to the source and hate Chen Qi who will talk about this matter, Chen Qi will not gain more than he loses.

It is better to stand up as a victim at this time and express gratitude to Zhao Bihe for saving his life. It's that someone thinks he is a pawn and wants to plan something, and when he sees that he is a chess piece, he can't do it.

Chen Qi sat in the hall with a golden sword, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was not bad. Seeing that Chen Zhong had already prepared the thank you gift, he immediately got up and straightened his clothes, and did not change his official robe, so he went to Zhao Bihe's mansion in an official sedan chair.
