Chapter 472: Halloween, Chaotic Night (Medium)

This turmoil in front of the Xixia Palace was quite abrupt in the eyes of Li Qianshun and other monarchs and ministers, and they didn't even know how this happened until now, only Sun Tu, the person who planned everything, knew that this was something that would inevitably happen, and he just directly induced the hidden danger.

Gathering tens of thousands of people in a small area is dangerous in itself, and sometimes a small commotion can cause panic among countless people on the scene. And once the panic spreads, everyone rushes to escape, and it will be a disaster.

This situation is that after a thousand years, scientific knowledge will be developed and people with higher quality will not be able to avoid it, not to mention the Xia State Party members who may not know a basket of these big characters at this time. So just throwing a few handfuls of copper coins into the crowd is enough to make people's hearts mess and cause the current situation to be out of control.

Even if the forbidden army has quickly stepped forward to stop the people rushing and bumping under the emperor's will at this time, the situation has still not changed much, and the more than 3,000 forbidden troops have integrated into the tens of thousands of panicked people, which is not so conspicuous, and even some of the forbidden troops have been squeezed and fell, and they have also followed in the footsteps of those unjust souls.

"Everyone went out of the palace to suppress the people, and they can't go on any longer!" Li Qianshun's body had already begun to tremble violently. How could he be so angry? Today is obviously his birthday, and he originally planned to have fun with the people, but as a result, such chaos appeared under his nose, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to the entire Xia Kingdom, and even he had begun to consider his future birthday to be low-key, and no longer as extravagant as before.

Afterwards, Li Qianshun set his eyes on the envoys of the Liao and Song dynasties not far away, thinking about how they would react when they saw such a scene. What fell into his eyes was an indescribable cold smile, obviously in the eyes of these two envoys, this chaos in the Xia Kingdom was more like a big drama, a big drama that made the Xia Kingdom court lose face!

Li Qianshun, who was even more annoyed in his heart, immediately spoke again: "Let the people of the Inspection Department immediately dispatch all the staff to quell the turmoil as soon as possible." Prince, the people in your house have also come out, don't let them just stay behind closed doors! ”

The prince hurriedly answered, turned and went downstairs, and went to speak to his men and give orders. And at this moment, several exclamations came from above: "There...... There's a fire over there......"

Hearing this, the prince hurriedly turned around and ran up a few steps, and then looked into the distance, and sure enough, he found that there were several fires near Taiqing Fang, which was only one street away from the palace and where his mansion was located, and then, there were fires in other places just a square away from there, which made his heart skip a beat, knowing that something was wrong!

There is no such coincidence in this world, and there is just a mess in the palace here, and a fire breaks out not far away. The only explanation is that everything happened under the premeditated nature of some people, in other words, someone is secretly sabotaging and trying to turn tonight's Wanshou Street celebration into a mess!

And what shocked the prince was that once his guess was correct, the guilt of the officials of the inspection department who was in charge of the security affairs in the city today would be too great. And the person in charge of related matters is Li Kan, who has been taken away from the post of inspector of the inspection department, that is, one of the prince's cronies!

Although the emperor had issued an order to take away Li Kan's post of inspector just two days ago, because there was no definite successor, the errand that had already been handed over to him was not handed over for a while. Especially regarding the safety of this Halloween Festival, because of the importance of the matter, it is not easy to change the person in charge casually, so everything is still under his responsibility.

Now that there are one after another troubles, once they are investigated, Li Kan will naturally be held responsible. Not only him, but the entire inspection department, and even the crown prince who recommended him for this position, cannot escape the blame. The prince knew very well that Emo's old spiciness, and he would never let go of the opportunity to hit him like this.

It must be remedied, and if it is worse, some arsonists must be caught in order to give some explanation to my father! After turning this thought, the prince turned around again and said to his subordinates who had just received the order to make arrangements: "You have sent all the guards in my palace to search carefully, and as long as there are suspicious deeds, they will all be taken down by me!" ”

"Yes! It's just the crown prince, once this happens, the prince's mansion will be empty...... If a thief takes advantage of this opportunity to sneak into ......"

"No one would have such courage, they just wanted to mess up my Xingzhou City by doing all this." The prince was not worried about this, and immediately ordered with a straight face: "You let them not be perfunctory, everyone will go out for me to arrest people, otherwise I will not spare them when I go back!" ”

"Yes!" Seeing that the prince was already ruthless, the other party didn't dare to say anything more, so after answering, he hurriedly went down and went to the palace gate to deliver the news.

At this time, Li Qianshun above was already so angry that his face was like a Xuantan, staring at the little fire not far away, and his teeth were bitten by him, "Wow, I can't imagine that someone would dare to make such a disturbance in my Xingqing Mansion." If I know who did it, I will destroy the three tribes! ”

"Hehe, this is just retribution." Just when the ministers didn't even dare to take a breath because of the emperor's anger, suddenly a word came out, although the words were not too loud, but in such a quiet situation, they still fell into everyone's ears, and immediately made the faces of all the Xia monarchs and ministers present change drastically, and then all their eyes looked at the person who spoke out, full of anger and murderous aura.

The one who said this was the envoy of the Liao State, and at this time he still had a sneering smile on his face, even if he was stared at by so many people, he had no intention of retreating, and he actually turned his head to look at Li Qianshun, and nodded slightly at him, which was regarded as admitting that what he said was what he said.

Mo Yuhe and the others were all furious, this was the face of the monarch and ministers of the Xia Kingdom in front of him! But when I want to reprimand, I don't know what to say. Just because they all know that what this envoy said is not bad, over the years, Xia Guo has planted too many secret spies in the Liao and Song dynasties, and there have been many incidents. Not to mention, just a few months ago, the turmoil in Nanjing, Liao State, was caused by their people, but Liao State could not find conclusive evidence for a while, so it did not investigate to the end.

And today, seeing that there was also a big mess in the Xia Kingdom, the envoys of the Liao Kingdom would naturally feel gloating. Moreover, since these days, the Liao envoy has been constrained everywhere in Xingzhou City, and his heart is full of anger, and it is reasonable to vent and say two cool words at this time.

Even after some people thought about it for a while, they wondered if the person behind all this would be the envoys of the Song and Liao countries or the people around them?

Not to mention, it's still very possible. Because there are too few people who dare to set fire to Xingqing Mansion, it is naturally impossible for ordinary people of Xia Kingdom to do such a thing, they don't have the courage, the ability, and the need to do all this. Today's Xia Kingdom is in a rare prosperous era, and the people in the country only have a good impression of the imperial court, how can they risk the whole family being killed to do such a rebellious thing in the capital?

As for a small number of robbers and bandits, it is almost impossible for them to enter easily with the strict interrogation of the gates of Xingzhou City during this period of time. Therefore, the only explanation is that a certain national force that has been hiding in the city is secretly arranging it!

What Mo Yuhe and other courtiers could think of, Li Qianshun naturally tasted it quickly, and immediately his eyes became sharper: "It seems that the Liao envoy looks down on my Xia Kingdom?" ”

"Hehe, what the minister doesn't look down on are those villains who only make some intrigues. I thought that only I, Da Liao, would encounter such ghost tricks, but I didn't expect that Xia Guo would also be so harassed! After replying to the emperor without being soft or hard, he stopped provoking and turned his head to continue to "appreciate" the situation outside.

The Song envoy, who was not far from him, also smiled silently when he saw this, and he was also happy to see the Xia people deflated when he had recently hit a wall one after another. Of course, if he knew that it was not the Liao people but the secret spies of the Great Song Dynasty who caused this turmoil, I am afraid he would not be able to laugh anymore.

At this time, the envoys of the Song and Liao countries rarely had the same idea, and they all hoped that the little fire could spread quickly, and it was best to involve the entire Xingqing Mansion in the fire.

But half an hour later, that hope was completely dashed.

After all, Xingqing Mansion is the capital of the Xia Kingdom, and the army and government here are extremely strong, in the case of the emperor's anger, whether it is the forbidden army, the city defense army, or the soldiers and horses of the Inspection Division and the Prince's Mansion and other mansions, all work together, and there is no longer any barrier. With all their efforts and saves, the turmoil was finally completely quelled before dawn.

However, it is impossible to find out how many casualties and losses this turmoil has caused, at least for a short time. It was only at this time that the people present were greatly relieved, and Li Qianshun waved his hand a little tiredly and said: "Let's go back to the palace, and come to the palace in the afternoon to reply." He also felt tired, and just wanted to go back to the harem to rest for a while, and the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, who was nearly sixty years old, showed a trace of old age for the first time.

The crown prince and Mo Yuhe, the two courtiers closest to him, clearly felt this, which made their hearts move, could it be that the opportunity was about to come?

No matter what was going on in everyone's hearts, there was only one thought left for them at this time, that is, to go back and rest for a while, and to recuperate enough to deal with the later accountability.

In everyone's opinion, this unrest is over. But will things really go their way?
