Chapter 367: Arson

When he returned to the post house, Tuoba Zeyan got out of the carriage with great dexterity, and told Tuoba Feng to prepare for the journey, and he went inside.

"Where's the princess?" As he walked into the room, he began to take off his clothes.

"Asleep. The slave and maid will summon it. Qiu Yun greeted him and said.

Tuoba Zeyan nodded, and then Yunmo and Qianyu also changed out of the gorgeous clothes on their bodies and put on a cloth robe of ordinary merchants.

After Liu Mengyan got up and put on her clothes again, she set off.

The group of people quickly drove away from the post house in the border city and headed for the official road out of the city. The officials of the post house are still in the Qin Mansion at the moment, drunk and drunk, pulling Tuoba Yeze's flattery, and they don't know that Tuoba Zeyan has taken people away.

"Your Highness is too careful. Can a Qin Fumin rebel with him? Liu Ruli leaned on Tuoba Zeyan's shoulder and said.

"Qin Fumin is only afraid that he won't dare, but the main hall found that the gang of 'coyotes' who fled in the devil's city were actually among his guards." Tuoba Ze said, "It's better to be careful!" ”

Men have ambitions for hegemony. has always sought wealth and danger, and since there is no way out now, we must find a way out.

"He has always been ambitious, whether it is reckless in the rivers and lakes, or an official of the imperial court, as long as anyone can take it, he will spare no effort."

Liu Mengyan said, "If it weren't for His Highness going over to hold her, I'm afraid that the dancing girl would assassinate His Highness." ”

"Hehe, how can this hall be so easily calculated by him? However, if he sends those people to chase and kill again, the main palace is worried about the safety of the princess, so he changes into the clothes of a merchant in order to hide people's eyes. ”

"The concubine knows! Your Highness has worked hard. This time, he repeatedly made him lose face, and if he left half a day later, those people would attack the inn at night. Then Qin Fumin is friendly with him again, but I am afraid that he will turn a blind eye. Liu Mengyan said.

"Marry the only concubine to King Xian as a concubine, and collude with the coyote, which is not clear. This Qin Fumin is not small. When the main hall returns, it will be necessary for people to examine his head and tail! Tuoba Ze said.

"I'm afraid that before His Highness checks, he will already clean up." Liu Mengyan said.

In the evening, the officials of the post house did not return for a long time. The pawn on duty naturally knew that His Royal Highness King Yi had left in a hurry with someone. Although they were surprised, Lord Yichen was not there, so they naturally did not dare to stop them.

After the second watch, the people in the post house have rested. No one expected that this would be their last sleep.

A full moon hung on the sky, and under the moonlight, the carriages covered with black cloth sped on the road, and finally all stopped in the inn.

They were all dressed in black and masked, and there were about a dozen of them.

"Would you like to go in and have a look?" A man walked up to the leader and said.

"No need. Anyway, the master said that a fire burned down this post house. Be neat and tidy! The leader had a fierce look in his eyes, and there was no hesitation.

"Yes!" Everyone responded and began to build forage on the four sides of the post house.

It turned out that the carriage was full of hay.

After all the forage had surrounded the whole station, the leader said: "Ignite the fire!" The master said that they must be burned. ”

In less than a moment, Marss began to set the hay on fire. Tongues of fire swam forward as quickly as the core of a viper.

The fire engulfed the entire inn in an instant. The sound of crying dad and snatching mom came from inside.

The masked men did not leave, their broadswords shining against the light of the moon. Where did the people of Situoba dare to come out to put out the fire, they closed their doors one after another.

It didn't take long for the entire inn to be engulfed in flames, crackling and crackling.

At that time, Qin Fumin was once again called out of Hu's hot quilt.

"Master, the inn is on fire."

Qin Fumin was clever, and his sleepiness disappeared. He immediately asked someone to dress himself in the official mansion, and hurriedly led people to the post house.

You know, if a prince is burned to death in his jurisdiction, it is difficult to explain!

The fire had been extinguished, and the whole post house was scorched and miserable.

"My lord, there were more than a dozen corpses inside, all of them were small servants in the post house. No one else was found. "The leading official in charge of moving the corpse came to report.

"What do you say? Are there really no other bodies found? Qin Fumin was slightly surprised in his heart, but he was inexplicably relieved in his heart.

"I've already gone to deal with Lord Yichen just now, and they should all be the little guys in the post house." The leading official said.

"Where is His Royal Highness King Nayi? They can't just disappear without noticing, right? Qin Fumin said with an incredulous look.

"I really didn't find it!" Ya Gong said.

Qin Fumin sighed heavily and said, "How did this fire burn? You go to check the common people of these four Tuoba for the official, someone will always see it! ”

Seeing that Tuoba Zeyan was not in the meantime, he felt that it didn't matter so much, anyway, the dead were all small minions, and they could compensate their families with some silver taels, and he didn't have to pay the silver.

Anyway, there are a lot of bandits in this city, and it may be that a certain group of roving bandits are seeking revenge for personal gain.

A moment later, Tuoba Yeze's carriage came.

He stepped out of the carriage with a worried look on his face, smelling the scorching mush in the air, and covered his nose.

"Your Highness!" Qin Fumin greeted him and said, "You don't have to worry, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince and his descendants are not among those corpses." The officials expected that they must have escaped. ”

"Are you sure there are no of them in those corpses?" Tuoba Yeze hurriedly hid the disappointment in his heart and asked again.

"Xia Guan is very sure. Your Highness, don't worry. His Royal Highness King Yi has already left early, or there is another reason. Qin Fumin thought that Tuoba Yeze was worried, and hurriedly relieved.

He was so angry that he could barely speak, and said loudly: "Then Lord Lao Qin will continue to find their whereabouts, there is something in the main hall, go back first!" ”

With that, he brushed his sleeves away.

Qin Fumin was stunned in place, just now he clearly saw anger on the face of His Royal Highness King Xian!

However, His Royal Highness King Chengxian hopes that His Royal Highness King Yi will be burned to death inside?

Or is His Royal Highness King Xian angry that he didn't manage the post house well, causing the fire?

Tuoba Yeze, who looked displeased, sat back in the carriage and couldn't help but say: "These wastes, they don't even know if they are in it?" ”

"Your Highness!" A cold woman's voice came from outside the car.

"What?" Tuoba Yeze wiped out the anger on his face, and replied as before.

"My subordinates inquired from a family here and said that there were many people coming out of the inn in the afternoon. A total of several wagons, as if carrying some heavy load, all left. The woman said.

A trace of fierceness flashed in Tuoba Yeze's eyes, and the left hand hidden in his sleeve clenched suddenly, and he frowned: "Walk so fast!" But the main hall will never let him go! ”

When Tuoba Yeze returned to the Qin Mansion, the first light on the horizon had already shone on the earth. He asked him to pack his bags immediately, and he sat quietly in the house, waiting until the hour was over, and then went to take Qin Muxue away.

Qin Fumin was busy in the post house for a long time, and when he returned to Qin's mansion, Aunt Hu had already prepared breakfast for him.

"Sir, sit down!" Hu personally served him a bowl of porridge.

"Hey, I don't know how this inn caught fire. What a fire. Quite a few people were burned. Qin Fumin took the bowl of porridge and said.

"Really, it makes the master work in the middle of the night." Hu Shi frowned in disgust and said, "Master, His Royal Highness King Xian sent someone over there to say that he is leaving today!" ”

"What? Today? Aren't there two more days? Qin Fumin's eyes rolled wildly, "Is Xue'er's dowry ready?" ”

"Ouch, don't worry, sir. The concubines are all ready. It's just that there is still a little bit of a set head, but I'm afraid it's too late. Hu Shi looked at Qin Fumin carefully.

"That's it, the Xianwang Mansion lacks nothing. No, I'm going to see the girl and tell her! Qin Fumin pushed the bowl in his hand, and immediately got up and went to Qin Muxue's house.

But when he walked to the door, he saw Mother Cui coming out with her head bored.

"Mother Cui, where's Miss?" Qin Fumin said in a deep voice, "But don't you have any mess again?" ”

If this Cui mother asked Qin Muxue to do anything out of the cabinet again, he couldn't wait to slash her with a knife.

"Master...... "Cui's mother flashed her eyes and said tremblingly, "Miss...... Disappeared last night......"

With that, she stumbled and fainted.

Qin Fumin still took care of her, and immediately walked quickly to Qin Muxue's house.

The maids were still there, and a letter was placed on the round table in front of the bed.

He irritated himself as he opened the letter until he saw that at last there was almost no mouthful of old blood spurting out.

"Qin Muxue!"

No matter how angry Qin Fumin was, Qin Muxue still ran away from home.

In the letter, she said that she didn't want to marry a hypocrite, and warned Qin Fumin not to hug the wrong thigh.

Qin Fumin shrunk his shoulders, and with a bitter face, he personally went to Tuoba Yeze to report that his evil daughter had escaped from marriage.

"Your Highness, Xia Guan has several daughters, and she looks good. If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, why don't you choose one of them to serve Your Highness? Qin Fumin looked at Tuoba Yeze, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and never said a word, so he made a move.

Anyway, he felt that this was originally a nepotism of interest, and it didn't really matter which daughter it was. The concubine naturally seems to pay more attention.

"Thank you, Lord Qin, for your kindness. Since the girl is unwilling to marry the main hall, the main hall is not difficult to force people. Lord Qin, go back. The main hall is about to leave for Beijing, so I won't greet Lord Qin. Tuoba Yeze glanced at Qin Fumin with a complicated look in his eyes and said.

"His Royal Highness King Xian, the daughter of the lower official is really spoiled by the lower official. Obviously, she had to follow His Royal Highness, but until now, she didn't know what she had done. Your Highness, don't worry, the lower officials will send someone to find it. When they find her, they will tie her up and bring her to His Highness. Qin Fumin hurriedly accompanied him and said carefully.
