Chapter 92: A Suspicious Fire
Liu Er sighed slightly and said, "Why do you want to do this? Whoever deserves this is not a deserved! Why are they so against each other? The slave family really can't figure it out! ”
Gao Huaiyuan stood up and gently stroked Liu'er's hair, patted her fair face and said, "Liu'er doesn't have to think about anything, a struggle for power like this is indispensable anywhere!" I have to have some confidence in the prime minister, how can those who are young people do anything to me? Watch me clean them up! ”
Gao Huaiyuan's words made Liu Er laugh, he gently took Gao Huaiyuan's hand, put it on his face, and chuckled: "Of course, the slave family has confidence in Xianggong!" No one in the world is more capable than you, Liu Er believes that no one can do anything to you! They must not be your opponents! It's just that you have to stay in the camp during this time, and Liu Er can't serve left and right, so I feel a little uneasy! ”
Gao Huaiyuan looked at Liu Er's pretty face with spring, and couldn't help but ripple in his heart, now everyone has called Liu Er Mrs., and Liu Er has been his person for a long time, the things in the room of the two people are very harmonious, and the two people can be said to be happy with this kind of thing now, Qin Se is harmonious and can't say, he was so busy during this time that he snubbed Liu Er, and now seeing Liu Er's demeanor, he almost couldn't hold it, and took Liu Er back to the room on the spot, and wantonly conquered to eliminate the group in his heart*.

But he immediately secretly scolded himself for being lewd, when is this time! He was still thinking about this, he really couldn't say it, and now he had to quickly find out the cause of the fire, otherwise, maybe there would be any chaos in the future!
So he forcibly suppressed the ** fire in his heart, hugged Liu'er and kissed her gently, and said to her with a smile: "I know that I have snubbed you these times, but Liu'er also knows that I am very busy during this time, and after I finish dealing with the affairs of the Holy Army, I will accompany Liu'er to Wushan a few times, so that Liu'er can enjoy the courage of being a husband!" ”
Liu Er listened to what Gao Huaiyuan said, her pretty face turned crimson, she knew that Gao Huaiyuan was thinking about that kind of thing again, so she quickly broke free from Gao Huaiyuan's arms, jumped to the side, and said coquettishly: "Look at what you said!" It seems that Liu Er is like a nymphomaniac, forget it! Liu'er feels sorry for Xianggong's body, but you are so light and thin Liu'er, I think you should always live in the barracks! Let's go! ”
Gao Huaiyuan laughed and stepped forward to grab Liu Er and kiss him heavily, before turning around and going out and rushing towards the camp of the Holy Protector Army again.
The atmosphere in the tent of the camp of the Guardian Army was very depressing, and the people standing in the tent bowed their heads and were silent, only listening to Chen Zhen's report to Gao Huaiyuan.
"Lord Qiyu Dutong, the losses have been counted, in terms of materials, a total of 12,000 stones of forage and more than 3,000 stones of soybeans were burned by the fire, and six corpses were cleaned up in the forage field, these people may have been burned to death in the fire last night!
In addition, the rest of the camp has suffered no damage, and the personnel have been checked, a total of seventeen people have not been found, and the list of these people is being checked at the moment, and it is estimated that the identities of these people who died in the fire will be found out soon!
This time, the lower officials are guilty of negligence, please rule the high capital! Chen Zhen looked tired and reported to Gao Huaiyuan the numbers they had counted during the day.
Gao Huaiyuan was dressed in a military uniform, sitting behind the handsome case, although he was listening to Chen Zhen's report, his eyes were always on the faces of those old Liu Bentang in the big tent.
On the way back to the barracks, Gao Huaiyuan had been thinking about this matter, but he couldn't think of why the Holy Protector Army, who had never walked through the water, suddenly caught fire at this time when he had just left the Holy Protector Army camp? So the more he thought about it, the more he didn't raise his head, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there were too many doubts in this matter, so he turned his suspicious eyes on Liu Bentang's group of subordinates, and he felt that this matter was inseparable from this group of people, and to a large extent, it was probably that these people deliberately set fire, wanting to take the opportunity to hit him and give him a warning.
So while listening to Chen Zhen's report, he patrolled the bodies of these people with his eyes, wanting to see some eyebrows from the faces of these people.
And these people all looked numb, as if they were not afraid of Gao Huaiyuan at all, they all looked at Gao Huaiyuan calmly, each of them looked calm, Gao Huaiyuan really didn't see too many doubts from their faces, only in the eyes of one person, I saw some uneasiness, that person was also Liu Bentang's subordinate, the commander of a battalion of the Holy Protector Army, when his eyes met Gao Huaiyuan's gaze, a little flickered, and he didn't dare to look directly at Gao Huaiyuan's gaze, So Gao Huaiyuan locked his attention on this guy.
However, after listening to Chen Zhen's words, he ignored Liu Bentang's subordinates for the time being, but sighed and said, "Hasn't it been found out what caused the fire this time?" ”
Zhao Futang hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiqi Dutong, the junior general is now carefully cleaning up the forage field, and is arranging for people to ask the soldiers who were on duty in the forage yard last night one by one, and the cause of the fire has not been found out yet, please give the junior general some time, and the junior general will find out this matter as soon as possible!" ”
Gao Huaiyuan nodded and let Chen Zhen and Zhao Futang retreat into the column, although the loss was not as big as he initially expected, but it was also a big trouble, after all, six people died at once, and the families of these deceased also need to be compensated, plus the loss of those forage and soybeans, at least there are more than a few thousand losses, if added together, the number is not a decimal, and now Gao Huaiyuan can preliminarily determine that the cause of this fire is by no means an accidental phenomenon, and it must have something to do with the gang of people under Liu Bentang's hands, It's just that he doesn't have direct evidence at the moment.
After thinking about it for a while, Gao Huaiyuan sorted out his thoughts, then raised his head and said to the generals below: "Yesterday the camp went to the water, fortunately thanks to your efforts, the loss in the camp was minimized, Gao thanked everyone again today, Commander Chen turned around and counted the list of people who made meritorious contributions to the fire last night, and handed it over to the official, who will report to the front of the palace and give another reward."
And since this matter is already like this, we don't have to worry, we must not relax in practice, we must continue to strengthen the training of subordinates, the original limit of five days, now because of this matter can be graced for three days, everyone must hurry up!
You can go back and get busy now, Chen Zhen and Zhao Futang stay! Gao Huaiyuan opened his mouth to command, his tone seemed relatively calm, but he did not jump into a rage and accuse anyone of this incident.
After the generals listened to the order, they intervened one after another, and Yuguan withdrew from Gao Huaiyuan's big tent, and only Chen Zhen, Zhao Futang and other Gao Huaiyuan's cronies stayed in the big tent.
After watching those people under Liu Bentang leave the big tent, Gao Huaiyuan's face gradually sank again.
"Lord Dutong, I'm afraid this matter is not simple, I feel that this time the water is really strange, although it is true that the weather is dry now, but there has never been a water walk in the Holy Protector Army over the years, but it was on fire last night, this matter doesn't make sense!" After Chen Zhen saw that there were only these people left in Gao Huaiyuan's cronies, he said to Gao Huaiyuan that Chen Zhen was originally responsible for the horse feed yard in the back camp, and the horse feed yard caught fire, which made Chen Zhen a little uneasy, at least he felt very faceless, so Chen Zhen wanted to excuse himself.
Zhao Futang also said to Gao Huaiyuan: "Commander Chen is right, and the humble position also feels that this matter is not quite right, when the fire broke out last night, there were not many soldiers in the horse yard, and after the humble post inquired about the soldiers in the horse yard today, they all said that no one had used any open flame in the horse yard last night, and this time the fire was started in the middle of the horse yard, far away from the water tank of the horse yard, so once it was discovered, it was out of control, and what was even more suspicious was that the water tanks closest to the fire point were also inexplicably fallen to the ground, so that after discovering the fire, there was no water to take for a while, so I could only go farther away to get water to extinguish the fire, so that when people arrived, the fire was out of control! Therefore, the lowly also feels that this matter is suspicious, and someone did it on purpose! Please be aware of it! ”
After Gao Huaiyuan listened to Zhao Futang's words, he was even more sure that this fire was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, so he slapped his hand on the table with anger on his face, and said angrily: "These people are too deceitful, the official has suspected that this matter is not so simple last night, and now it seems that someone should have deliberately set the fire to it, but unfortunately we have no evidence now, and we can't help them, they are going to give the official a dismount, and return the official with color!" It's annoying!
This matter can't be just settled, I see that the commander of the forward battalion just now has a flickering eye, and he doesn't dare to look at this officer, this person must be involved in this matter, Zhao Futang, you arrange the people of the forward battalion, keep an eye on him for me, no matter what he does, give me the original note, even if he is flattering, don't let it go, there must be something wrong with this person! ”
Zhao Futang immediately nodded and received the order, promising to go down to arrange this matter soon, and Gao Huaiyuan said to Chen Zhen again: "Commander Chen, I know that the horse feed field is under your jurisdiction, so they probably want to rectify this matter, this time we might as well sing a bitter meat trick to show them, tomorrow when the order is made, the official will reprimand you, and punish you with twenty military sticks, of course, to show them, let them be happy first, and show their feet!" You'll be wronged this time! ”
Chen Zhen hurriedly replied in a panic: "Thank you Lord Dutong for your magnanimity, the underwater official of the horse field is indeed responsible, and he should have been punished by this, there is no grievance to say, and thank you Gao Dutong for not being held accountable!" ”
