Monan's expression became a little heavy.

"In the end, it was a step too late. When we rushed to Cheongdamsa Temple, there was a fire going on there. Mo Nan said in detail: "The main hall and the wings behind it are all safe and sound, except for a few monks' houses that have been burned clean, and the most intense fire is the abbot's room. In the few places where the fire started, no one was able to escape, and it is said that a total of ten people died, including the host. ”

"Alas. Unexpectedly, it was they who killed each other first. Jiang Xuan sighed, "I just don't know if there will be innocent people among these ten people." ”

Mo Nan didn't know about the Qingtan Temple back then, and listening to Jiang Xuan's emotion at this moment, he was completely confused, so he could only stand quietly beside him.

"Okay, you've worked hard for so many days, let's go down and rest." Jiang Xuan spoke.

Mo Nan didn't take a step for a long time.

"There is one more thing...... "Mo Nan still considered and opened his mouth, "When we arrived at Qingtan Temple, we were just in time to catch up with the water there, and the fire was in full swing, so we didn't think much about it at that time, so we helped the monks in the temple to put out the fire together...... Thinking about it now, I'm afraid that it is possible to fall into the eyes of those who have a heart and expose your whereabouts. ”

"What suspicious people do you see?" Jiang Xuan asked.

"That's not true, it's the spies sent out before, saying that those people went to Qingtan Temple, but when we arrived, they were long gone."

"Hmm." Jiang Xuan did not blame, the situation at that time, if it were anyone, would instinctively go to fight the fire, even if his whereabouts were really exposed, it was human nature.

What's more, Mrs. Wu is just chasing after the wind, and she even ruthlessly sent someone to Shandong to exterminate the mouth, it seems that she really underestimated her!

Jiang Xuan came back from the study and returned to the inner room.

Seeing Lu Qingrong, he didn't know how to speak.

In the case of Qingtan Temple back then, although Lu Qingrong was also present, and it was she who first discovered the strangeness of the beams in the hall, so Yin Pingru was able to remind her and let her mother escape the catastrophe...... But after all, she was only a year old at the time, how could she possibly remember this!

It's just that Jiang Xuan didn't want to hide it from her, and finally simply told her what happened at that time.

When Lu Qingrong heard this, he first felt strange.

For her, the incident is obviously fresh in her memory. After all, she had just crossed over at that time, and she was extremely curious about the things around her, and compared with what had happened in recent years, it was the most profound memory of the first year.

What puzzled her was why Jiang Xuan suddenly mentioned this past.

After an instant, inadvertently connected with Cao's mother and their trip to Zhangqiu, Lu Qingrong suddenly realized.

"You mean, what happened in Qingtan Temple back then was also written from there?" Lu Qingrong raised his head in the direction of Qinyi Temple, "And the people sent over there this time are not for Mrs. Jiang's relics, but to go to Qingtan Temple to extinguish the mouth?" ”

Lu Qingrong was inevitably shocked when he spoke.

"Exactly." Jiang Xuan affirmed: "The reason why the group of people I sent after that didn't follow them was because I didn't expect them to go elsewhere at first. ”

"That'...... The people of Cheongdamsa Temple? Lu Qingrong faintly felt a little bad.

"Ten dead." Jiang Xuan told him the truth, "According to what Mo Nan saw, it was a purposeful arson, and several monks' houses were not even next to each other...... It seems that they are all extinguished. ”

"It wasn't like this back then, why did you suddenly become so ruthless after more than ten years?" Although Lu Qingrong hated this kind of silence, he could imagine it, but he didn't understand why he had waited until now.

Jiang Xuan was not surprised at all: "It must have noticed our actions here, and misunderstood the whereabouts of Cao's mother and the others, so I took a risk, and killed them first." ”

Lu Qingrong smiled bitterly: "After all, what happened back then can only be regarded as an attempt, and it didn't hurt anyone's hair, and as for them to kill their mouths so vigorously?" ”

"How do you know you didn't hurt anyone?" Jiang Xuan was a little strange.

"Ahem, what you just said!" Lu Qingrong hurriedly said, trying his best to be straightforward.

Jiang Xuan frowned, as if he didn't remember what he had said, and he didn't care about it anymore, and instead explained to her: "Recently, Empress Dowager Wu and An Lehou have been a little estranged from Qinyi Courtyard, although for some reason, they are extremely obvious, and even us outsiders can see it at a glance. It is impossible for Qinyiyuan not to notice it, thinking that there is a sense of crisis, and he no longer dares to give people a handle casually. ”

"That's true!" Lu Qingrong immediately remembered, "At the imperial banquet last month, in the Fengning Palace, Empress Dowager Wu showed that she was not as affectionate as before!" ”

Jiang Xuan first snorted coldly, and then said: "The situation on Empress Dowager Wu's side, we can't speculate, maybe it's just a temporary estrangement." thought that at the beginning, she was able to enter the Hou Mansion as a flat wife, but it was all due to that side. Now it's just a little cold, which makes her so impatient! ”

Lu Qingrong didn't feel much about this.

From a very young age, when she first came to the Hou Mansion with Yin Pingru as a guest, not long after Mrs. Jiang passed away, she was deeply touched by Mrs. Wu's insidious cunning.

Therefore, no matter what Mrs. Wu did, it was not difficult for her to understand.

What makes her a little disappointed now is still about the incense.

When Mrs. Wu heard that Mother Cao and others had gone to Shandong, the first thing she reacted to was not Mrs. Jiang's relics, but Qingtan Temple.

Does that mean that there is really nothing abnormal about the incense?

Lu Qingrong thought wildly.

This night, she and Jiang Xuan both lay down for a long time, but they couldn't sleep......

The same is true for-in.

The person sent by Mrs. Wu to Qingtan Temple also came back today.

At this time, Lu's mother was ordered to go over to inquire.

Mrs. Wu, on the other hand, paced back and forth in the inner room, anxiously waiting for the result.

After a while, Mother Lu hurried in and nodded at Mrs. Wu.

"Done?" Mrs. Wu asked eagerly.

"That's it." Mother Lu immediately replied: "All the people who knew about it back then, or who might know about it, will never open their mouths anymore!" ”

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "Mo Nan and their gang didn't come out to stir up the situation, did they?" ”

"Nope. The fire was almost out of flames, and they arrived! ”

"What?" Mrs. Wu asked rhetorically: "Obviously, our people left a few days late, why did they arrive late?" ”

"This ...... It's not clear. ”

Mrs. Wu suddenly thought that their target was not Qingtan Temple!

But after only a moment of apprehension, her expression softened, and a sneer came out of her nose: "Hmph, no matter where they go, they are destined to run for nothing!" Those useful things have been burned clean in the fire back then! ”R1152
