After saying goodbye to the Yan guards, they entered the house, and the servants saluted as usual, neither knowing what was happening outside the city, nor mentioning what was happening at home.

Therefore, when Chi Tang returned to Jinnian Courtyard, he was a little caught off guard when he saw someone in the house who should not have appeared.

When he came back to his senses, he hurriedly ordered: "Close the door!" Close the door! ”

Then he lifted his skirt and trotted into the house, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you back?" ”

The man was crooked on the couch, and he had just stuffed a piece of Chongyang cake into his mouth, and he couldn't speak, only bent his eyes at her.

"You're not going to sneak out again, are you?" Chi Tang asked worriedly.

On the night of the reception banquet, although Zhu Xian escaped temporarily, he was still taken away by the guards of the East Palace.

It can be seen that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still very nervous.

Sneaking to her house again, Chi Tang was a little worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would anger his father.

Zhu Xian finally swallowed the Chongyang cake in his mouth, glanced at her, picked up the last piece, and said, "Who told you that I sneaked out?" This time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally ordered me to be released! ”

Chi Tang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly willing to let you go?" ”

"What else? The investigation is over! Zhu Xian said as a matter of course.

Zhu Xian was taken away by the people of the East Palace for a very fair reason: to investigate the murder of Yushi Muhong.

But this investigation is not allowed to go out for several days, resulting in additional conjectures, including Chi Tang.

So is she overthinking? Misunderstanding His Royal Highness the Prince?

Chi Tang sat down next to her and asked quietly, "You mean, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally ordered you to let you go?" The word "kiss" was emphasized.

Zhu Xian nodded: "Yes!" What they said, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally commanded. ”

"Them?"

"It's the ones who haven't let me go these days." Zhu Xiandao.

"So...... You haven't seen His Royal Highness the Prince? Chi Tang has already begun to imagine the scene of the guards being fascinated by beauty and letting go of His Royal Highness the Prince's favorite beauty without authorization.

When Zhu Xian heard this, he became angry: "If I see His Royal Highness the Prince, I can still know where to use my strength!" Li Yan, who was killed that day, knew that he was looking for someone to lock me up, and he never showed his face! ”

Chi Tang blinked, a little unable to react: "You mean...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never seen you? ”

Zhu Xian glared at her: "Yes! ”

Chi Tang was suddenly confused.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he took a fancy to Zhu Meiren and forcibly seized it?

Zhu Xian was free, and snatched the Chongyang cake of the little girl Chi, and was happy, not caring about these small problems, he poured himself a cup of tea to moisten his throat, and asked casually: "What about your father?" ”

Chi Tang came back to his senses and said, "Go out of the city to fight the fire......" and told him about today's events.

Zhu Xian listened, stopped drinking tea, and thought for a while.

After Chi Tang finished speaking, he took another sip of tea, put down the teacup with a "dang", looked at Chi Tang with strange eyes, and said: "Your father took people out of the city, the city is empty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let me out at this time, shouldn't I come back to protect you?" ”

"How so?" Chi Tang was feeling funny, and suddenly, remembering what his father said last time, he was stunned.

"Are you familiar with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Zhu Xian asked.

Chi Tang shook his head blankly: "I have never seen His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Zhu Xian winked at her ambiguously: "You haven't seen him, maybe he's seen you?" Tut-tut, I didn't expect our Royal Highness the Crown Prince to like this-" His eyes rolled and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so nervous about you, so I robbed your Chongyang cake just now, will I be punished?" ”

Chi Tang was stunned, turned his head to look at her, and said quietly: "My father said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince held you because you had been robbing me of snacks and thought you were bullying me......"

Zhu Xian was so shocked that he didn't say anything for a long time.

"His Royal Highness the Prince! His Royal Highness the Prince! So stingy?! For such a trivial matter, he actually locked me up for ten whole days! Zhu Xian was so angry that he grabbed the cup and wanted to smash it, and after being snatched away by Chi Tang, he had to snatch it back.

At this time, a maid ran in from outside the door: "Girl, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to send a basket of Chongyang cakes!" ”

The Lu family did not send anyone to send Chongyang cakes, because the masters of the Lu family all went to Baiyun Mountain and did not return.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to deliver it, and it looked as if he was in the city.

"His Royal Highness has ordered early in the morning, as soon as the Chongyang cake is baked, it will be sent to Miss Chi-" The person who sent the Chongyang cake was a middle-aged waiter, who smiled very attentively, "His Royal Highness also ordered that Miss Chi eat less before lunch, so as not to have no lunch." ”

As soon as the waiter left, Zhu Xian picked up a piece of Chongyang cake and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince's thoughts about you are definitely not simple!" ”

But Chi Tang wanted to break his head, and he only wanted to conclude that his father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a good relationship.

Seeing that Zhu Xian wanted to eat, he hurriedly shouted, "You can't eat!" The one just now was given by Miss Shen, it doesn't matter if you eat it, if you eat it from His Royal Highness the Prince, I will arrest you again! ”

Zhu Xian subconsciously glanced left and right, and then threw the Chongyang cake in a daze: "I am not uncommon for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to send it, I will wait for your father to send me the Chongyang cake!" ”

……

Miss Chi's father didn't have time to give Chongyang cakes to anyone today.

Although the fire in Baiyun Mountain did not burn His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or anyone, the burning of the mountain and the destruction of forests was also a disaster.

By the time the fire was brought under control, the Chung Yeung Festival had already passed.

There was no time to change out of his soot-stained robe, so Chi Changting convened local officials overnight to discuss follow-up countermeasures.

When the sky was obscure, all the officials who walked out of the government were grizzled and sleepless all night.

Chi Changting went home, briefly freshened up, changed his clothes, asked a few more words about Chi Tang's condition, and then got on the horse with a bun and went to Lu's house.

Although he went early, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't let him wait.

When he entered, Wenli was already in the house.

Li Yan bowed slightly at him: "Chi Qing has worked hard." ”

Chi Changting bowed his hand: "The matter within the minister's share-" Wei Dun, "The fire has been extinguished, and the injured are temporarily eleven people, and no one has died." ”

Wen Li said happily: "It is the virtue of His Royal Highness's blessing!" ”

Li Yan shook his head: "Lone has never been blessed, it is the work of Wu Di Zhuqing and all the soldiers to fight the fire." ”

Chi Changting hurriedly said that he didn't dare, straightened up, and asked Wenli: "Has the arsonist been caught?" ”

Wu officials were responsible for fighting fires, and it was Wen Li and other subordinates of the East Palace who set up a bureau to arrest people.

Wen Li said regretfully: "Although all the arsonists were arrested, there were no Yao 11 and Yao 17 among them. ”

"All interrogated?" Chi Changting asked.

Wen Li's face was embarrassed.

It was his dereliction of duty to set fire to the mountain and find nothing.

Li Yan replied on his behalf: "They are all dead soldiers, and they committed suicide when they were caught." ”

"It should be Yao Shiyi......" Chi Changting raised his head and put his speculations together, his eyes accidentally swept over Wenli's body, and he was cold.

This time, even if he was not involved, he should not be ignorant, unless someone deliberately hid it from him!
