Hua Yu hurriedly went out and went to King Huai's Mansion, but was notified that Nangong Yi had entered the palace and had not come back yet, she suddenly thought, could it be that the palace was also affected?

She borrowed a carriage from King Huai's Mansion and rushed to the vicinity of Dongshi.

Xu Qingwei was stunned when he saw her go and return, "What's wrong?"

Hua Wei jumped out of the carriage and said to Xu Qingwei: "My lord, I want to ask you something." ”

"You say. ”

Hua Yu said: "I want to enter the palace, I have a very urgent matter to see King Huai, can the adults make it convenient?"

Xu Qingwei asked, "Something to do with this disaster?"

"Yes, I can probably guess what happened, but there are some things that need to be confirmed. ”

Xu Qingwei pondered for a moment, and finally said in a deep voice: "Okay, I'll send you into the palace." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Hua Wei was sincerely grateful.

Xu Qingwei explained the aftermath to his subordinates, got into Hua Yan's carriage, and the two went to the palace together.

"If such a big thing happens, the Taoist can enter the palace, I'm afraid His Highness won't have time to see you. Xu Qingwei looked at her anxiously, and wanted to make her mentally prepared in advance.

"He'll meet me. Hua Yu said firmly, and lifted the curtain again to see where she went.

Xu Qingwei pondered for a moment, His Royal Highness didn't like the cultivation realm very much, there were fires everywhere in the city, and now he must be organizing officials at all levels to deal with the sudden fire, he wouldn't even see the Vermilion Bird Sanren in the palace, would he meet the chief of the flower path? Even if he did, would he believe her words?

Xu Qingwei didn't know where Hua Yan's self-confidence came from, and he was afraid that she would be disappointed, unless-

"Is it possible that so many people caught fire...... Do you have a solution?"

Hua Wei shook her head, "I can only roughly guess the cause of the fire now, and as for the solution, I don't have a clue yet." ”

Xu Qingwei sighed silently, feeling that Hua Yan's trip was going to be in vain.

——

Hua Yu followed Xu Qingwei through the long palace road, and the palace people who came and went saw a young female crown behind him, and they all looked sideways.

Is Lord Xu crazy? He doesn't know that the regent never allows Taoist priests to enter the palace to discuss politics? Why did he still take her in the direction of the Qinzheng Palace? Everyone was puzzled but didn't dare to ask.

"Ah!" Among the several palace maids passing by, the last one suddenly burst into flames without warning.

Xu Qingwei's first reaction was to protect Hua Wei behind him, and Hua Wei's first reaction threw out spiritual power, the fire did not ignite, but the palace maid was burned by the instantaneous high temperature.

Hua Wei turned out of Xu Qingwei's side and ran to her side and squatted.

"Danger!" Xu Qingwei was frightened, what if the fire ignited again and hurt her?

Hua Yu touched her, looked at the other palace maids, stretched out her hand out of thin air, and shouted, "Come!"

Black smoke suddenly rose from the sleeve of a palace maid.

Hua Yu immediately put away her spiritual power, rushed to her, extinguished the cigarette on her sleeve, and searched out a red rune paper from her sleeve.

"Where did it come from?" asked Hua Wei.

The palace maid fell to her knees, trembling and not daring to answer. Although she didn't know where Hua Yu came from, since she followed Lord Xu into the palace, it seemed that the origin was not small.

Hua Yu asked, "Did you ask for it from Shangyinguan?"

"The servant doesn't know..... The maidservant was bought from her sister in the same room. ”

Hua Wei looked at Xu Qingwei, Xu Qingwei understood, and asked the guards to take down the palace maid.

Hua Yu looked at the rune paper again, the spell mark on it was intact, it should not be burned, and it could be used, so she pointed to the burned palace maid and said, "Take her, let's go to King Huai." ”

.......

The House of Parliament.

Nangong Yi is discussing countermeasures with hundreds of civil and military officials, and he advocates preparing for the long-term occurrence of strange things, and seizing the time to urgently store water in Chang'an to deal with the continuous spread of the fire, and everyone is discussing the feasibility of various plans.

"Lord Xu is already outside the palace, have you summoned him?" asked Dongwu.

"Biography. Nangong Yi sighed while people were not paying attention.

Dongwu showed hesitation on his face, and in front of the officials, he had to say, "But Your Highness, Lord Xu also brought the Taiyuan Guanhuadao Elder into the palace, and he was also waiting outside the palace." ”

There was an uproar in the palace, since the regent took over the government affairs, even the Suzaku Taoist was not allowed to come when discussing the government, even if Hua Yu was the female crown of Taiyuan Guan, but she had no noble blood, and she had no official position, how could she enter the palace?

Everyone thought that Nangong Yi would get angry and blast Xu Qingwei out, and they all had an expression of being confused and might as well watch the show.

Rong Anhou said even more bluntly, "Chief Ikebana, Lord Xu is afraid that he doesn't know the rules of the palace, right? Without the nobles in the palace summoning him, people with no rank are allowed to enter the palace, let alone step into the palace, what does Lord Xu mean by bringing in the Taoist chief of Taiyuan Temple?"

An official immediately chimed in, "It's just that Chang'an is so chaotic now, and Lord Xu wants to break the rules set by His Royal Highness the Regent, it's too unseemly." ”

Nangong Yi looked at the palace gate silently, and was a little surprised in her heart, she actually asked Xu Qingwei to take her into the palace to find herself, what happened?

Seeing this, Dongwu rushed and said: "Your Highness, the flower chief said that she found the cause of the fire among the people in Chang'an!"

Everyone questioned again, but Rong Anhou and Huaiyang Hou glanced at each other, and staggered their gazes without a trace.

Nangong Yi said: "Let them in." ”

"Your Highness, Suzaku Sanren also said that he knew the reason, but you didn't allow her to enter the palace, but now you let the flower path chief in, it's too unfair for you to do this, right?" Rong An said stably.

Nangong Yi was a little difficult to answer, on the surface, he was not familiar with Hua Yan, if he insisted on letting her in and believed what she said, it would be a little unreasonable, and the reason why Rong Anhou dared to blackmail him was also because he did not want to act very familiar with Hua Yan.

At this time, the nobles of the Gaomen were unwilling to let Hua Yu enter the palace under the instigation of Rong Anhou, and the officials of the Yushitai did not believe in letting go of the two sons of the Cui family for the sake of Nangong Yiyan, nor did they share the side with him, Wang Tingyu and Xie Zhizhang in the four major families did not express their position, and it was difficult for Nangong Yi to go his own way.

He could have called Hua Wei in, but the ministers dared not speak out, and would only sprinkle their grievances on Hua Yan, and he was unwilling to let her in to meet these people's questions.

Outside the hall, Hua Yu and Xu Qingwei were not summoned for a long time, and Xu Qingwei understood that His Royal Highness was probably in trouble.

"Let's wait. He whispered to Hua Wei: "Maybe after the court is dispersed, His Highness will have time to listen to us." ”

"Why wait? We can afford to wait, can the people of Chang'an afford to wait?" Hua Wei has already saved up a belly of fire, she has long seen that those old and dizzy ministers are not pleasing to the eye, when are they still caring about inconsequential matters, today is simply presumptuous!

"If the regent doesn't summon me, won't I be able to enter? I'm not from your Dayan, why should I listen to him?" Hua Yan's voice landed, and the people had already rushed up to the palace.

The guards chased after him, and Hua Yu urged her spiritual power to leave a phantom and avoid everyone.

So after hearing a commotion in the hall, Hua Yu appeared in the center of the hall.

"You! How can the flower path chief be blind, you are breaking into the palace!"

Hua Yu didn't hear it at all, only looked up at Nangong Yi, Nangong Yi also looked at her silently at the moment, and after the two made eye contact, they already roughly understood what the other party meant.

Hua Yu broke into the palace, it has nothing to do with Nangong Yirang not letting her enter the palace, as we all know, King Huai has no spiritual power, and he must not be able to stop Yuanyu Zhenren's personal disciples.

Nangong Yi also quickly accepted this setting, her voice became cold, and she said unhappily: "Ikebana chief, what do you mean by this?"

Hua Yu said: "Disturb you, listen to me, the current situation in Chang'an is very complicated, but it is very simple to completely stabilize the situation, I have found the root cause and solution of this disaster, if you don't let me finish speaking, then don't blame me for suspecting that he is complicit in the crooked ways of the evil sect, and he will be punished by heaven!"

Everyone changed their faces when they heard the word heavenly punishment, the scene of Hua Yu being punished by heaven is still vivid, who dares to say that she has never done a bad thing, and she will not be struck by lightning? She used this sentence to directly block the mouths of everyone who wanted to find Nangong Yi's commentary.

Nangong Yi smiled secretly, the kitten showed its claws again, and it was still very capable of bluffing.

Hua Yu looked at everyone's attitude, was slightly satisfied, looked at her head again, and asked arrogantly: "Your Highness, can you say it now?"

Nangong Yi was "forced to be helpless", so he had to say: "Dao Chief, please speak." ”

"The innocent fire on the body of the people in Chang'an is derived from a kind of evil art used for prayer, and the spiritual power of this evil magic is not taken from the person who prays, but from the person who is praying, that is, whoever gets the blessing of others, who will catch fire, and the degree of fire is determined by the size of the wish. ”

"As for the rune paper that manipulates the evil arts," Hua Yu pulled out a bright red rune paper from her sleeve, "This thing is from Shangyinguan, so you should discuss how to seize Shangyinguan, interrogate the unprovoked Dao Leader, and track down the whereabouts of the Cloud Seal Dao Leader." ”
