Yes, the palace is gone.

After learning that the emperor had arrived, Qingyun didn't dare to delay, and hurried to greet him, but only halfway down the road, he heard the people in the palace shouting at the top of his voice.

She immediately stopped her steps, glanced over, and saw the highest place in the palace, thick smoke billowing and flames raging.

"It's the observation deck that's on fire!" Qingying said anxiously.

Qingyun stood there without moving, just looking at the sky-rushing fire, she knew that the observation tower was finished.

Today is the day when she and Chubei move to a new house, everyone is happy, but it turns out to be such a fuss, it's just bad luck!

If you want to say that the palace is guarded, it is needless to say, Chu Beiyuan has a lot of secret guards, the queen is afraid that something will happen to him, and she asked for ten from the Marquis of Zhennan, not to mention that the palace is impregnable, not a single bird can fly in, but it is definitely not easy for assassins to get in.

But something happened!

Qingying stood there, distressed, the observation tower is the highest building in the palace, standing on the observation tower, you can look at the entire palace, even the palace council hall can be seen, it is the princess's favorite place!

That thief is so hateful, he wants to burn you and burn other places, why do you want to burn down the observation tower?!

To find out who set the fire, she had to skin him twice!

Qingying cursed in her heart, but she also knew that it would be difficult to find the arsonist, because today there are more than 100 people who have been to the observation tower, including noble ladies, ladies, ladies, and civil and military officials......

God knows who is doing it in the shadows?!

There was such a big accident, Qingyun had already left the emperor behind, and the maid didn't think about it, and when she remembered, Qingyun hurriedly walked forward.

Over there, the emperor has already come over.

Seeing Qingyun, without waiting for her to say goodbye, he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Qingyun shook her head, "I don't know what's going on yet." Xianggong has already gone to check. ”

The queen stood aside, looking at the billowing smoke, and she could smell the smoke from such a distance. There was a little anger on her gentle and delicate face, and she endured hardship.

Qingyun greeted the emperor and queen, and then invited them to the main courtyard.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, Chu Bei came over.

The queen asked him, "What's the matter with the observation tower?" Who set the fire? ”

Chu Bei didn't shake his head, nor did he nod, but said, "The fire in the observation tower is too big to be extinguished, it is difficult to find evidence, and there are many guests today, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the person who set the fire." ”

Chu Bei said, Qingyun snorted coldly, "Skynet is magnificent but not leaky. I don't believe that I can't find the arsonist, so I want me to know who he is, and I have to prick him dozens of stitches, so that he can taste the ...... of broken bones and bones! ”

Qingyun is angry, otherwise with her temperament, she wouldn't have said these words.

However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the emperor, "Don't talk nonsense, today is the day of housewarming, taboo." ”

Poor Qingyun to the lips of the words. swallowed it alive like this, and her face turned red.

After the emperor finished speaking, he walked towards the main courtyard, this place. Although he hasn't been here for twenty years, he knows him very well.

Watching the emperor leave, Qingyun turned her head to look at Chu Bei and said, "What's wrong with the day of the housewarming, the observation tower has been burned." Add such a big deal to me, and don't you allow me to make a small fire? ”

"Xu," Chu Beiyan said succinctly.

Qingyun snorted heavily, lowered her voice and said, "I think it's fake that the emperor made me jealous, and he is clearly shielding the arsonist!" ”

Chu Bei's eyelids jumped, holding Qingyun's hand, and asked her to dissipate her anger first, it was strange that Qingyun could dissipate her anger, looking at the flames of the observation tower, she was furious.

Knowing that Qingyun was unsettled, Chu Bei coughed lightly and said, "I burned the observation tower." ”

Qingyun was suddenly stunned, raised her eyes to look at Chu Bei, and Chu Bei looked down at her.

The four looked at each other, one with doubt, the other with affection.

Qingyun raised her hand, touched Chu Bei's forehead, and asked, "You don't have a fever, right?" ”

It's good, but someone actually burned his house to add bad luck to himself, is there anything wrong?

Chu Bei pulled down Qingyun's hand that probed his forehead and said, "This matter is not clear in a few words, I will be busy with business first, and I will explain it to you later." ”

I really don't have time to explain now, the emperor specially gave face to participate in the palace housewarming banquet, they are the lords of the palace, and it will definitely not work to dry the emperor.

The emperor walked away, and the two followed.

When they entered the house, the civil and military officials had already greeted the emperor and sat down.

Seeing them enter, Zhennanhou frowned and asked, "I just heard someone shouting that the water was gone, what's going on?" ”

Chu Bei shook his head lightly and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the observation tower has burned, and it can be rebuilt." ”

"Reconstruction?" Zhennan Hou said unhappily, "If it is an ordinary time, the viewing tower is burned, today is the day of your housewarming, and the palace is watery, which means that this palace and you are not in agreement with Qingyun, how can you be so casual?" ”

The meaning of Zhennanhou is obvious, it is to find the arsonist.

Qingyun was a little stunned when she heard it, her head couldn't turn around at all, the burning of the observation tower was deliberately done by Chu Bei, the emperor knew, and the Zhennanhou should also know.

He said this now, how could the more he listened to it, the more wrong it became, the viewing tower burned in Chubei, it was impossible to find evidence to prove that he burned it, could it be to blame others?

But the enemy of Chubei is obviously only the king of Anjun.

At the beginning, the king of Anjun sent someone to assassinate the "eldest prince", although there is no evidence, but it is something that everyone knows.

Qingyun felt that things would not be so simple.

Old lady Jiang stood up and said, "The matter of the observation tower going to the water, we must find out, now that the banquet has been placed, let's use the banquet first, and the matter of the observation tower will be talked about later." ”

When he said this, King Ning agreed, "Mrs. Jiang is right, how to walk the water in the viewing tower, I can't find out for a while, let's use the banquet first, today is the joy of housewarming, everyone is happy to congratulate, don't talk about this disappointment." ”

Then, the feast continued.

It's just that King Ning didn't talk about it, but everyone couldn't help but be curious at all, and they turned heads and ears in twos and threes.

A noble lady said in a low voice, "You still remember that more than ten years ago, a merchant in Kyoto moved to Kyoto, and on the day of the housewarming, the big kitchen ran away, and everyone didn't care about it at the time, but a few years later, the merchant was dilapidated, and a fortune teller said at that time." That Mansion Kina Merchant Fortune

If I had been alert and moved, I wouldn't have been so unlucky. ”

She said. Mrs. Yougui nodded, "I have also heard about this, and Yunzhou, on the day of the housewarming, the yarn tent of the embroidered building of the girl caught fire." Later, the girl went crazy, and there were those who caught fire in the mansion on the day of housewarming, and there were those who died violently, as if the mansion was on the day of housewarming

If you go to the water and don't move the mansion, you won't ......end up well. ”

They spoke quietly, curiously. "Do you think the eldest prince and the eldest princess will change mansions?"

"I don't think it will change," said the lady, shaking her head.

Everyone looked at her, "How can you see it?" ”

The lady smiled, "You have forgotten, the eldest prince and the eldest princess will move out of the palace today, it is the day after Qintian's monitoring, how can there be any unlucky words?" ”

Several noble ladies suddenly realized that this was really the case, if the palace and the eldest prince and the eldest princess did not agree. Those adults in the Qin Heavenly Prison are about to be unlucky.

So, is someone deliberately doing it for the observation tower?

Everyone has different guesses in their hearts, chatting lively while using delicious food.

Soon. Everyone was attracted by the snails that were served.

They had never seen it before, let alone eaten it.

When the emperor saw it, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What is this?" ”

There is an imperial chef on the side of the emperor's banquet, just in case the emperor has any questions to ask. At this time, when the emperor asked, he quickly explained.

The emperor listened, then took a snail and ate it, he nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

The queen looked at it and wanted to stretch out her chopsticks, but as soon as she touched the snail, the emperor said, "This dish is not suitable for the queen." ”

The queen looked at the emperor and said, "Why?" ”

As soon as she finished asking, Yun Guifei over there exploded, "It's so spicy!" ”

The queen took the chopsticks back, she was not used to eating too spicy dishes.

Yun Guifei is spicy and angry, the emperor remembers that the queen can't eat spicy, so he doesn't remember that she can't eat it!

The imperial chef hurriedly said, "The queen and the concubine are not used to eating spicy, so the kitchen has specially prepared slightly spicy food." ”

As he spoke, he brought a plate of slightly spicy snails.

The queen tasted it.

On the table over there, there were two large plates of snails, spicy on one side and slightly spicy on the other.

Many people eat snort, plus sour plum soup, that's called a cool.

The only bad thing is to eat it with your hands, which affects the image, but fortunately, everyone is the same.

After eating the two large plates of snails, the banquet is almost over.

After the emperor cleaned his hands, he didn't stay long, and he was about to drive back to the palace.

Chu Bei and Qingyun hurriedly got up to see each other off, the emperor was leaving, and the civil and military officials naturally had no need to stay, and they all burped and followed the emperor out.

After sending them away, Qingyun rubbed her neck, tired for a day, and her cheeks stiffened.

The two turned around and went back to the house, and before they crossed the threshold, they saw King Yijun, King Mingjun, Prince Dongwang and Chu Yan coming over.

They are handsome, brightly dressed, and personable, and the only thing that spoils the beauty is the large food box they are carrying.

One man carried one in his hand.

Qingyun raised her eyebrows slightly, she didn't remember that she had prepared food for them to take away, what was the matter with the big food box?

Walking forward, King Yijun lightly lifted the food box and said, "I helped greet the guests for most of the day, the consumption is too large, and the dishes on that table are not enough to eat, so we went to the big kitchen to get some by ourselves, so as not to delay your rest, we will find a place to eat." ”

A few people said goodbye to Chu Bei, and then left the house, turned over and left.

Qingyun didn't take the food box to heart, because Qingying reminded her that the county lord Ruoyao did not attend the banquet, she was a little worried, and instructed Qingying, "You go to the Ning Palace, and see if the Ruoyao County Lord is in the palace." ”

Ruoyao County Lord is very concerned about the palace housewarming banquet, it is impossible to be angry because of soiled clothes, she is afraid that something will happen, what if Ruoyao County Lord has an accident on the way to the palace, although the two mansions are very close......

Qingying was instructed to hurry to King Ning's Mansion to investigate.

The kings of Yijun said goodbye to Chu Bei, and then turned over and left.

After seeing them leave, Qingyun and Chu Beifang entered the mansion.

After walking more than 100 steps, Lu'er ran over and said, "Princess, the snails were looted by the King of Yijun, and none were left!" ”

Lu'er complained in a tone, they ate the most, and it didn't count if they added a big plate, and they had to take it away after eating, which was too much!

Qingyun knew that the big food box contained snails, she could smell them, although she also felt a little excessive, because she hadn't eaten them yet, but snails were not a rare thing, they were gone today, and they could be made again tomorrow, and what she was most concerned about now was the observation tower.

She wanted to know which string Chu Bei's brain was wrong!

There are maids all around, and there are many fresh faces, Qingyun endured it and didn't ask.

When she returned to the inner room, Qingyun sent the maid out, then looked at Chu Bei and asked, "What's going on with the observation tower, why did you burn the observation tower?" ”

Chu Bei sat down and poured tea for Qingyun, "For the sake of military power." ”

For the sake of military power?

Burn the observation tower to have military power?

Qingyun has a black line in her head, "Are you sure you're not kidding me?" ”

Chu Bei looked at her and said with a smile, "Do you want to make a bet?" ”

Why does this sound so familiar, isn't this what she said when she made a bet with Chu Bei yesterday, she looked at Chu Beidao, "You don't want to win back the promise you lost to me yesterday, right?" ”

Chu Bei didn't answer, but asked, "Don't dare?" ”

Qingyun bared her teeth, "It's not that I don't dare, it's just that I'm not stupid." ”

The promise she finally won back, it was intended to be used at a critical time, if Chu Bei was asked to win it back, wouldn't it be a waste of work?

Besides, the emperor also knew about the burning of the observation tower, and she had never seen the emperor do anything that didn't burn his brain.

It's just that she can't connect the burning of the observation tower with military power.

Qingyun sat there, racking her brains to think.

But after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't understand it, she couldn't help but ask Chu Beidao, "How can you seize the military power by burning the observation tower?" ”

As a result, Chu Bei shook his head, "I don't know either." ”

Qingyun, "......." ”

The black lines on the door of the brain fell down in stacks, and I couldn't control it at all, "I don't know, then you burned the observation tower?" ”

Saying that, she added, "The emperor asked you to burn it?" ”

Chubei's demon eyes flickered with light, and said, "It shouldn't be that my father asked me to burn it." ”

"Shouldn't it count?" Is it or not?

Chu Bei glanced at the direction of the observation tower through the open window, his expression was a little dark and unpredictable, he said, "My father said that the use of tactics is like using soldiers, he gave me ten days to think of a way to seize military power, if I didn't come up with it, I would burn the viewing tower, and he would teach me how to use soldiers." ”

Qingyun, "......." ”

Qingyun's face was full of black lines, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

Looking at her, Chu Bei asked, "What kind of expression is this?" ”

“…… Unclear. ”

"Huh?"

"Although I don't understand what the emperor is doing, I think it's very powerful."

Since the emperor has the intention to teach northern Chu the way of using soldiers, it is impossible to mention such a strange condition as burning the observation tower, obviously there is a purpose for burning the observation tower.

Now that the observation tower is no longer saved, what is the purpose of the emperor burning the observation tower? (To be continued.) )
