Chapter 51: The Peace of the Ancestors

Seeing that the door was about to be knocked open, the two men in black may also realize that something was wrong, and turned around to flee.

Just at this time, the door was slammed open.

Bai Qi pointed to the black-clothed man who had not gone far and shouted, "There, hurry, catch them, dare to set fire to the ancestral hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and kill people!" ”

The nursing home rushed up and immediately took down the two men in black.

"You guys, let's put out the fire! Don't let the fire spread to the ancestral hall! Jin Su commanded, quite a bit of the momentum of the eldest lady, "Tie up these two black-clothed people first, a few of you, and then check around!" ”

"Yes!" With the answer, the two guards tied up the man in black, and the others were holding weapons and cautiously looked around.

Jinsu came out to see the fire, but as soon as he came out, he ran into the old lady shouting and coming this way.

But mixed with the shouts of the servants fetching water back and forth, and the "snort" of the fire, I really didn't hear what the old lady said.

Jin Su greeted him and hugged the old lady, "Grandmother, don't go any further, the fire is too big, be careful of hurting!" ”

The old lady didn't bother to push her away at this time, pointed to the fire and asked, "How can it be on fire?" How can a good one catch fire? ”

"Grandmother, grandmother, go back and rest." Saying that, Jin Su took off his cloak and draped it on the old lady, looking very considerate.

As soon as the old lady was appeased, the father and the princess rushed over together, as well as An Suqing and An Yasheng, this fire alarmed almost everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The moment the princess saw that she was safe and sound, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and there was a hint of murder in her eyes, but soon, she was replaced by worry and anxiety.

"Su'er, are you alright?" The princess took her hand with concern and looked her up and down.

"It's a good thing the guards arrived in time, otherwise I would have been killed by those two assassins, if not by the fire." Jinsu said calmly.

"Heqing, Heqing, go and take a look, you must not burn down the ancestral hall, otherwise the ancestors and ancestors will blame it, and we can't afford it!" The old lady told anxiously, it seemed that she was really worried that the ancestral hall would be burned.

"Su'er, it's okay if you're okay, take good care of your grandmother, I'll go over and have a look first!" An Heqing confessed a few words and left.

After Jin Su handed over the old lady to An Suqing, he went to the fire with An Heqing to check on it, and commanded his subordinates to extinguish the fire in an orderly manner, and Bai Zhi and Bai Qi also joined in the firefighting.

After working for more than half an hour, the fire was finally extinguished. An Heqing took the housekeeper to step forward in person and started to check from the place where the fire was burning the most.

The butler wondered, "How can there be so much firewood here?" Normally, firewood is piled up in a firewood house near the lake. ”

"Check it out! With so much firewood moving here, it's impossible not to see anyone! An Heqing said with a dark face.

Jin Su followed behind and checked the unburned firewood, "Father, why are there still oil beads on this firewood?" ”

Of course, this is knowing that the adviser could not be connected with the deliberate burning of her without these lamp oils, just with a pile of firewood.

"Master, this is lamp oil!" The housekeeper heard Jinsu's shout, and took the lead in walking over to check, with his many years of experience, the smell of lamp oil naturally could not be hidden.

"Pouring lamp oil on a pile of dry firewood, what is this for?!" An Heqing was already a little angry.

"Father, I think those two men in black must know!" Jin Su reminded.

An Heqing's sharp eyes swept over the two people who were tied up by the five flowers, snorted coldly, and didn't say anything, but entered the ancestral hall first to check.

Seeing that the collapsed tiles knocked over the ancestral tablet all over the ground, An Heqing's face darkened. The butler trotted over to pick up all the tablets and blow the dust off them. The original table could no longer be placed, so I had to hold it in my arms.

An Heqing also wanted to step forward to help pick it up, but was pulled by Jin Su, "Father, it's dangerous!" ”

The housekeeper also stood up and echoed, "Yes, sir, don't go in, leave it to me, but the roof of this ancestral hall needs to be renovated, these tablets ...... I don't know if the old lady's small Buddha hall can be placed. ”

"Let's wipe it all clean first, and then I'll make a decision after I go and discuss it with my mother." After speaking, An Heqing went out with a black face.

"Sir! I found traces of two more men in black, but I couldn't catch them, so they threw them out of the house, do you need to report to the official? The nurse who took the lead said.

"Report! I want to see who is so bold that he dares to burn down the ancestral hall in my prime minister's mansion! ”

"Wait!"

Jin Yan shouted, stepped forward, and said softly, "Master, what is so serious that it will alarm the government, hasn't the little thief who set the fire already found?" It's not too late to ask for clarity before reporting to the authorities. ”

"The princess is right!" Jinsu also echoed at the right time.

Jin Yan glanced at her, a little surprised in his eyes, but quickly recovered as before, and said instead, "Besides, it's already so late, it has alarmed the government, can the old lady rest in peace?" ”

When An Heqing heard the old lady, he was a little moved, and then he was relieved, "That's it, send the old lady back to Yunxiang Courtyard first." ”

After saying that, he raised his feet and went to the old lady.

"Heqing, what's wrong, is it burning inside?" The old lady hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"No, no, mother, don't worry, it's just that some tiles fell and smashed some of the tablets to the ground, and it's not a big deal." An Heqing personally helped the old lady, "Mother, let my son send you back to rest first, and the matter here will be handled by Jinyan." ”

I don't know when, Jin Yan also walked over, "Yes, yes, you go back to rest first, you are not in good health, don't worry about these worries anymore." ”

An Heqing helped the old lady walk forward for a while, and then turned around and shouted, "Su'er, you come, I'll show my grandmother later." ”

"Yes, Father!"

Jin Su answered and followed. Originally, she planned to listen to Jin Yan in person to see how Jin Yan interrogated, but now it seems that there is no chance.

As soon as she settled the old lady on the bed, An Heqing asked her, "What's going on?" Didn't you say that you knelt in the ancestral hall to reflect? ”

Jin Su replied with an innocent face, "Yes, I also think it's strange, why don't you even light the oil lamp in the ancestral hall tonight, it's dark inside." After we lit the oil lamp, Bai Zhi went back to Hanlian Courtyard, took two cloaks, and then we knelt all the time.

It wasn't until I saw the flames outside that I realized that it was on fire. At that time, Bai Qi and I didn't care so much, and wanted to go outside to see what was going on, but the ancestral hall gate didn't know who locked it from the outside. We filmed the door for a long time, but there was no movement. Later, by the light of the fire, it was found that there were two men in black on the roof.

I didn't expect the two men in black to want to come down and kill us, I don't know if the roof was not strong enough, or they were too clumsy, they actually fell down and smashed on the desk. Bai Qi and I were very scared at the time, and banged on the door desperately. Luckily, someone spotted us and started banging on the door.

Before they could open it, the man in black rushed over again, and in a panic, I threw some ecstasy at them, making them less flexible, so that Bai Zhi and Bai Qi had a chance to take advantage of it. Just as the two sides were scuffling, the door was slammed open. Then my grandmother came, and you know what happened after that. ”

"Do you mean that someone deliberately locked you in the ancestral hall and arranged for someone to kill you?" An Heqing asked rhetorically.

Jin Su shook his head innocently, "However, today is indeed because I came back too late, so I will be punished for kneeling in the ancestral hall, who can predict in advance, and then prepare so many fueled firewood early?" ”

After a pause, he continued, "It's terrible! If it weren't for killing me, it would be even more terrifying! ”

"How?" An Heqing asked.

"Father, grandmother, think about it, the man in black entered the mansion and didn't go to steal things in the courtyards of the masters, not to kill me, but to burn the ancestral hall, which is obviously to cut off the incense of our family!"

After Jinsu finished speaking, the old lady and An Heqing were stunned and didn't speak for a long time. If someone really wants to ruin the peace of the An family's ancestors, it is indeed more terrible than simply killing her, at least the old lady and father will think so.

"Heqing, this matter has to be investigated!" The old lady said fiercely.

"Yes!" An Heqing replied firmly, and then asked, "Now that the ancestral hall has been smashed, it will take some time to repair it, and the tablet is ......."

"Let's put the tablets in my small Buddha hall first, and then go to the mountain temple tomorrow, and let the presiding master do a dharma, so that the ancestors and ancestors can be at peace here, and continue to bless us to settle down!" The old lady said heavily.

"It's good! It's just that I'm riddled with miscellaneous items, otherwise I would have to go there myself. An Heqing said with some regret.

"Father, grandmother, go too! After all, tonight I also disturbed the rest of my ancestors and fathers."

"Good! It's better for you to go naturally, and you can still take care of each other. An Heqing nodded with satisfaction.

An Heqing was worried about interrogating the two black-clothed people, so he didn't stay in Yunxiang Courtyard for a long time, but only ordered her to take care of the old lady.

After waiting for the old lady to rest, Jin Su waited quietly for a while, and did not leave until he confirmed that the old lady was asleep.
