On the Golden Luang Palace.

The emperor listened carefully to the deliberations of the officials.

Methodical and step-by-step.

But the emperor was a little upset.

Of course, it is a good thing that there has been peace in the local area recently, and as a king, there should be no bad mood, but we should cheer up and continue this peaceful and prosperous era.

It's just that he's just not happy.

Because no one mentioned what he wanted to hear.

Yesterday, no one mentioned the situation in Bao'an Garden.

Even when Zhao Taibao talked about the preparation process of the Spring Festival, no one picked it up.

The emperor touched his beard.

Isn't it that yesterday's gentle resignation was too showy, and the Shen family's behind-the-scenes things were frustrated, and they couldn't push it down, right?

He waited for the turtle to be caught in the urn, and if the turtle didn't climb, wouldn't the urn be prepared in vain?

The emperor set his eyes on Huo Yixiao.

The Shen family withdrew, but Yi Xiao was not a person who was willing to suffer losses.

Keep the peace?

Huo Yixiao understands what it means to calm things down?

No way.

So, when did Huo Yixiao get into trouble?

Do you have to wait for tomorrow?

Seeing that he was about to go down, could it be that he was going to talk in the imperial study?

The emperor still thought to himself.

Gonggong Wu glanced at the emperor, and he could see that the emperor was distracted.

The people below don't know, but he can understand it.

Gonggong Wu cleared his throat and was about to shout "Nothing to retreat from".

The emperor came back to his senses, and since he didn't mention it, he came to speak.

"How are the candidates entering Beijing arranged?" The emperor asked, "It's not far from the Spring Festival, are there any good seedlings?" Oh, yes, I remember, Lord Han, you have a nephew who is going to end up too? ”

Lord Han stepped forward and respectfully: "Yes, Chen's nephew, he fell off the list three years ago, and this is the second time." ”

The emperor nodded.

Lord Han did not continue.

The emperor pursed his lips and said in his heart, he really has no eyes.

Gonggong Wu tasted the taste, but he couldn't remind others, so he could only give up.

In the distance, he saw a man appear in the square outside the temple.

The visitor carried the hem of his clothes, ran in three steps and two steps, crossed the square, and ran up the bluestone steps to the main hall.

Far away, Gonggong Wu could only see that the other party was dressed as a small official, and it was impossible to tell what kind of yamen it was.

Supposedly, the little official shouldn't be here.

The people are in such a hurry, which shows that it is an important matter.

The emperor also saw it, and suddenly came to the spirit.

The courtiers at the bottom turned their backs to the outside and could not see until they heard footsteps, and they realized that someone was coming.

The little officer did not enter the temple, but trembled and knelt down outside.

He even trembled in his voice: "Your Majesty, last night there was a gangster pouring vegetable oil in Xiaobat Hutong, intending to light a fire, but he was discovered by the Jingwei Command Envoy, and now he is cleaning up the ...... with Shuntian Mansion."

Before the trembling could reach its end, it was interrupted by an uproar.

The little official who was not used to speaking in front of the emperor couldn't go on.

The emperor's brows furrowed tightly.

He waited for the development of the situation, but he did not expect that the situation would be like this......

Beyond his expectations, this feeling was very uncomfortable.

Subconsciously, he raised his hand and pressed his throat.

Zhao Taibao stood up and asked the little official: "What about the loss?" How many rooms were burned, but were people hurt? ”

The little official hurriedly shook his head: "I found it in time, it didn't burn, except for a guard who commanded the embassy and accidentally fell and injured his arm, no one was injured." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

OK.

It didn't burn up, thankfully.

"What's the situation now?" Zhao Taibao asked, "What about Master Bi?" Kyowei commanded the envoy there......"

"It was Lord Xu who discovered the danger last night, and he is still dealing with it." The little official said.

"Xu Qirun?" The emperor cleared his throat, "Let him come into the palace and talk back." ”

The little official hurried to go.

In the Jinluan Palace, everyone, you look at me, I look at you.

The emperor does not mention the retreat from the court, everyone has to stand.

The emperor didn't mean to let people express their opinions, so everyone could only look at each other and fight a lawsuit.

What is it that makes people so crazy?

A whole alley, how much vegetable oil does this have to consume?

Figure what?

On the dragon chair, the emperor did not speak, closed his eyes and rested.

Although there was no loss, the feeling of losing control did make him uncomfortable.

It should have been strategized, but the result was ......

He took a deep breath, and there was some indescribable taste in his chest, which pierced his internal organs with a spicy pain.

The emperor opened his eyes and looked at his sons.

Not far away, not close, he couldn't see their expressions clearly.

The dull atmosphere in the Jinluan Hall was not broken through until Xu Qirun arrived.

From depressed to agitated.

Zhao Taibao knew the emperor's thoughts, and at this time, it happened in Xiaobat Hutong, which was also his business, and he asked the emperor about the topic he was most concerned about.

"There is no burning, no candidates and people are injured, is there any danger?"

Xu Qirun replied: "Yes, there is no danger, the person who poured the oil was found before the fire." ”

Zhao Taibao relaxed a lot: "Who is it?" ”

Xu Qirun said: "I wasn't caught red-handed, he ran away." ”

For a while, there was a whisper.

Someone was in a hurry, ignoring the rules and etiquette, and asked loudly: "How can you tell the thief to run away?!" What did you guys figure out in one night? ”

"Alas," Zhao Taibao glanced at the man disapprovingly, "It's dark at night, and it's understandable that no one is caught." Let's hear the ins and outs. ”

Xu Qirun didn't answer immediately, but looked at Huo Yixiao first.

Everyone followed his line of sight and saw Huo Yixiao raising his eyebrows, looking like "what do you think I do".

Xu Qirun said: "The first to discover the situation was the flying cavalry captain in the Fourth Prince's Mansion. ”

"Who?" Zhao Taibao did not react.

Are there still officials in the Fourth Prince's Mansion?

"It's the cat." Someone hastened to mutter.

Zhao Taibao suddenly realized.

Yes, Wen Yan's cat is naturally the only cat official in the fourth prince's mansion now.

"The minister and the others patrolled to Guangyuan Street last night, and the captain suddenly appeared and motioned for the minister to follow it," Xu Qirun said, "The minister followed him all the way to Xiaobat Hutong, and smelled a strong smell of vegetable oil, and the minister quickly blew out the lanterns."

The captain rushed to the villain, and the villain immediately ran, and the minister also wanted to chase it, but it was too dark, so he asked someone to slip away. ”

The hall is quiet, really, it's strange to say anything.

The emperor had a wooden face, and after listening to such a strange story, he felt like he was reading a book.

It's still a ghostly ambition.

After being silent for a while, the emperor asked, "You can't catch up, and the cat hasn't caught up either?" ”

Xu Qirun said: "The captain's paws are stained with oil, which affects his pursuit of people. ”

Ministers, you look at me, I look at you, it seems to be that reason.

The soles of the feet are oiled, people will fall, cats, it is estimated that it is about the same.

Xu Qirun said again: "The minister called for manpower support, and guarded until dawn, and then cleaned the ground with Shuntianfu." ”

The emperor asked Huo Yixiao: "Your cat, what do you think?" ”
