Han Ji is the only descendant of the Xiao family, and no matter who is watching at the moment, they have to ensure Han Ji's safety first.

He walked briskly along the corridor of the palace, he couldn't leave the palace, but when he left the harem, someone in front of him naturally answered. He just needs to make sure that no one sees him sneaking out of the cold palace.

Although it was dangerous, he had done it many times, so he didn't panic.

After crossing the road in front, you will leave the harem.

Yongxin's mood was also more anxious, and just as he was speeding up, he suddenly faced several guards, blocking the way and standing in front of him: "The slave in which palace, where are you going?" ”

He hurriedly lowered his head: "The slave was ordered by Gonggong Hu of Biling Palace to go to the Internal Affairs Office to receive lamp oil candles." ”

The leading guard sneered and said, "Really? How did I hear that the lamp oil and candles in Biling Palace had been received two days ago yesterday? Besides, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is on the southwest side, and you came to the northeast side, what is the reason? ”

Yongxin's forehead was slightly sweaty, and he replied: "When the little one came over, the door hadn't been opened yet......

"Nonsense!" The guard said, "You must have something else to do!" Get him away! ”

The guards on the side didn't wait for Yongxin to react, and immediately rushed up and kidnapped him.

Along the way, there was only Yongxin's struggle and shouting, and Zhang Qian Xingmai outside the palace wall knew nothing.

Liu Yaze stood under the willow tree here, looked at Yongxin who was far away, and said to the guards who came back and forth: "You guys did it too early, you should follow him to see who is behind him, and it is easy to take it in one fell swoop." ”

The guard said, "We're not used to these twists and turns. Torture is the only way to extract confessions. ”

Liu Yaze didn't have any opinions: "Ask as much as you can." ”

Zhao Jun was also a little uneasy after waiting for Yongxin to leave, and he took branches to draw on the homemade sand table throughout Shangxi, Lu Minglan and Fu Shu took the food sent by the eunuch and sent it over, he raised the chopstick twice, and put it down and said: "Yongxin hasn't come back yet?" ”

Lu Minglan also had a worried look on her face: "No." ”

"It's been three hours, and most of the time something happened." Zhao Jun frowned and said to himself, "What about Shi Qing?" ”

Fu Shu said: "Shi Qing is peeking at the people staring at us under the back wall. ”

"Get him back!" Zhao Jun immediately said, "Don't keep an eye on it, let all the people who went out come back!" ”

Fu Shu was relieved, and immediately said that he was out.

Zhao Jun looked at Lu Minglan: "Don't go out." Just stay with me. Liu Yaze shot faster than I thought. Yongxin fell into his hands with only two results, one was to pry out the truth, and the other was to cover the truth and die. Either way, Liu Yaze won't wait any longer. He'll just start with us.

"We have to find a way to inform Han Ji's people who are squatting outside the palace. But we can't afford to venture into them anymore. I can only convey the news myself. Now go with Gonggong Hu to prepare some curtains and dry planks, but don't alarm the outside! ”

Lu Minglan vaguely guessed what he wanted to do, and immediately turned around and walked out.

Liu Yaze finished his official business in the yamen. In the next morning, he went to the palace to discuss the matter of the mausoleum with the emperor, and just returned to the south three institutes, the guards who had come to pay homage stopped him at the door: "Ge Lao, the slave didn't open his mouth when he died, the whip was whipped hundreds of times, and his ten fingers were also clipped, and he still refused to summon it." ”

Liu Yaze frowned, "Let's try something else." Does he have any family? ”

"I've checked, it's an orphan." The guard said: "I voluntarily entered the palace to make a living. ”

Liu Yaze was silent for a moment and said, "Then retrial, don't you have a way?" Until he opens his mouth! ”

The guards bowed and retreated.

Liu Yaze stared at the door for a long time, and just retracted his gaze, when the guard who suddenly walked out walked back quickly with another guard: "Pavilion Lao, that slave just took advantage of the unpreparedness and committed suicide by hitting the wall!" ”

"Why don't you look at it?!" Liu Yaze stood up.

The guard said, "I didn't expect him to be so desperate." ”

Liu Yaze walked out of the bookcase with his hand in his hand and said: "Immediately take people to guard the four sides of Biling Palace, don't be impatient, and bring the people inside out one by one for trial!" There must be accomplices among them, who can sneak in to see Zhao Jun from so many people in the palace, maybe everyone in them will have a share! ”

"Yes!"

The guards retreated, but the gloom between Liu Yaze's eyebrows couldn't retreat.

Here in Biling Palace, the face is calm, but there is a little more spoofing and murderous aura invisibly.

Lu Minglan and Hu Jin Shiqing moved all the furniture that could be knocked out in the hall to the back seat of the room that they didn't use on weekdays, and the cloth curtains that could be used were also torn off. Everyone knew what they were already facing, and they could guess what Zhao Jun wanted to do. In fact, what better way to get the news out of the palace than by burning it down?

Yongxin went out all day and didn't return, and nine times out of ten, his life was already in danger.

As Zhao Jun said, his absence from this time means that the sky is about to change greatly, and no one dares to leave anything to chance.

At dusk, everyone returned to their original positions. As soon as you are ready, you can start igniting at any time.

Zhao Jun wrapped the books and annals under the slate with sheets, stuffed them into the cracks in the courtyard wall, and said to Hu Jin: "Have dinner first, there are many people now, if there is a fire, I'm afraid Han Ji and they won't be able to come before Liu Yaze and them, and then act after dinner, there will be few people and sparse lights at that time, and it will be easy for people to see." ”

Hu Jin said: "What should His Highness and Niangniang do after the fire starts?" ”

Zhao Jun said: "It depends on the situation, no matter what, you have to ensure that your life is worry-free." Since Liu Yaze is eyeing us, he can't stay in this palace, these Han Ji will have a number in his heart, let's not pay attention to it for now. You go and pour all the rest of our lamp oil on the wood, and make sure the fire grows—"

"What about people?!"

As he spoke, the palace door was suddenly kicked open, and a team of guards straddled their swords, looked around, and walked into the house.

Hu Jin quickly glanced at Zhao Jun and greeted him: "What's the matter?" ”

The guards looked him up and down, and then made a look, and someone behind him stepped forward to hold him on his left and right shoulders: "Come with us!" ”

Hu Jin was shocked, "Who let you come?!" ”

Shi Qing in the house and they all came out when they heard the news, and they couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw this, they wanted to go up to stop but they didn't dare, not because they were afraid of death, but they were all slaves sent by the Shanggong Bureau, and they had no position to speak for Hu Jin! Once it is said, doesn't it show that there is a greasy relationship between them?

Lu Minglan walked to the window where Zhao Jun was, and said in a dumb voice: "Are they going to arrest Father-in-law Hu for trial?" ”

Zhao Jun's face turned pale after a while, his fingernails dug into the crack in the window, and he tried his best to say steadily: "Don't panic, act according to the plan." ”

The rest of the year was more torturous than ever, because no one knew what would happen next. No one knows if the outside world is still as calm as they thought, they are isolated from the world, and there is no way to reverse their fate except for this last way! And the successive departures of Yongxin and Hu Jin are even more worrying, knowing that there will be no good news, but they are still looking forward to it.

Dinner was delivered on time, but no one was in the mood to eat it.

Panic and apprehension swept through every sense of the body like a deepening twilight, and time passed more and more slowly.

The only one who was calm was Zhao Jun, after he turned over and drew countless lines on the sand table, he waited until the night wind knocked on the window door again, and suddenly straightened up, looking ahead with blazing eyes: "Ignition!" ”

On the other side of the moat outside the palace wall, Zhang Qian and Xing Mai were eating wontons in a small noodle restaurant.

Although the night of October is not extraordinarily cold, it is unbearable to stay in the cold wind, the boiling heat of the wontons quickly scalded the blood, Xing Mai raised his head and stretched his waist, and when he looked at it, the whole person froze there!

"There is water in the palace!" He almost dragged Zhang Qian's arm and pointed ahead.

On the northeast corner of the palace city, there is a thick smoke mixed with tongues of fire, and the range of smoke is as large as the entire palace, and there is a moat across the city, and the sound of shouting for fire in the palace is also coming one after another!

Zhang Qian turned his head to look at it, and immediately threw away the spoon: "It's the direction of Biling Palace!" Most likely Zhao Jun had an accident! ”

Xing Mai said: "I'll go to the palace to have a look!" You hurry up and inform the prince and the grandfather of the country! So saying, he leaped across the river like a sharp arrow, landed at the foot of the city wall, and swam towards the palace gate.

Zhang Qian didn't dare to delay, and immediately swept away from the opposite direction.

Han Ji was in the study of Wei Guogong to discuss the news that the king had sent back, and Tao Xingluo Wei suddenly broke in with Zhang Qian, and said in unison: "Shizi (Grandpa Guo), Biling Palace is gone!" The fire is extremely large and the situation is critical! ”

The father and son immediately stood up, "Was it an accident or arson?" ”

Zhang Qian said quickly: "I don't know yet, but from what I just saw from the periphery, the scope of the fire is not small, and it should belong to man-made arson!" Right now, Xing Mai has already sneaked into the palace first! ”

Han Ji paused, and immediately said: "No one dares to deliberately set fire to the palace, even Liu Yaze doesn't have the guts!" Since the scope of the fire is large, it must be in many places at the same time, even if Zhao Jun must have encountered some critical situation, so as to send us a signal! Tao Xing quickly led people into the palace to protect Zhao Jun and Concubine Lu! ”

"Wait!" Wei Guogong quickly turned around and took down the sword from the wall, and explained: "It's not enough for them to go, Luo Wei, you bring the twenty-four people in the escort team, plus Tao Xing and them, all of them disguised themselves into the palace, be sure to quickly find the people of Biling Palace, even if they are strong, you must bring them out!" I'll answer you outside the Xuanwu Gate! ”

Han Ji immediately said: "Since I want to bring it out, then I will send people to various mansions to deliver news, there are many people in the palace, it is good that these twenty or thirty people can come out, if they can't come out, there will inevitably be a scuffle." We have to think of a way to put an end to Liu Yaze using this as a handle to counter us! ”

Wei Guogong strode out with his sword: "You can do these things!" (To be continued......)
