Chapter 474: Thorough Investigation

It was easy to retreat to the outer edge, and I wanted to take advantage of the chaos to pretend to be a subordinate of the government to mix out of the inner perimeter.

Unexpectedly, the two classes of officials in Jingzhao Mansion rolled up their sleeves and came to get people, and the dead soldiers only regarded their identities as if they were revealed, and after the collision was fruitless, they all bit the poison sac and killed themselves. Everyone present was frightened when they saw this change, Qin Zhen soaked his cloak and was about to break inside, and finally taught Yongrong and Gu Chong to stop and persuade him in every possible way.

Shunyibo and Rong Enhou both fell upside down, and the scene was even more chaotic. The emperor and queen in the palace stayed awake all night, and sent the internal prison guards to pass on the horse without interruption, and the queen mother sent her attendants to ask "where to go to the water", Yonglin said to the Zhou eunuch: "You go back to the imperial grandmother, the internal affairs office accidentally set fire to two abandoned houses when burning and burying the waste, the fire has long been suppressed, please rest assured that the imperial grandmother is." ”

Unexpectedly, the queen mother is not an old lady who can be easily fooled, and her expression has not changed when she hears the reply: "The abandoned house is gone, is it necessary to alarm the emperor?"

Eunuch Zhou didn't dare to speak.

The Empress Dowager glanced at him lightly: "Did you say it yourself, or did the mourning family ask it in person?"

Eunuch Zhou complained bitterly: "The Empress Dowager and the old sage Mingjian, Your Majesty and the Crown Prince are filial piety......"

"The crown prince is also in Kunning Palace?" the queen mother stood up with a "snort", "Swing!"

Seeing that the lights in the Kunning Palace were bright, the queen mother's heart became more and more uneasy, and she happened to bump into the palace gate supervisor who returned to report the news, and immediately ordered the lead to intercept the person who came to interrogate, how did Xiao Huangmen know the severity, only when the old lady already knew, she heard a sentence and immediately replied truthfully: "The fire has extended over the Zheng Guo Mansion, and the Earl's Mansion is afraid that it will be difficult to preserve, and the whereabouts of Chaoyun Chitose and the prince, the little uncle, and the county lord still don't understand......"

"Old Sage...... Old sage!" Before Xiao Huangmen finished speaking, the queen mother's blood was already surging and her five orifices were closed, and the panicked eunuch Zhou shouted repeatedly, "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor! ”

The emperor and queen rushed out when they got the news, and they didn't have time to send the mouthy little yellow door and the eunuch Zhou, who was not tight-lipped, hurriedly started to smooth the old lady, the queen mother was just in a hurry, and she had to wake up without waiting for the imperial medical needle, and pulled the emperor's son to cry: "The piano girl must be good, and I won't live anymore!"

Yonglin Fu asked again: "The sons should leave the palace, and they can make decisions when they encounter difficult decisions!"

The emperor was also helpless: "Bring twice as many guards!"

The fire on Lingyuan Street lasted for a day and two nights, and by noon on the third day, Lingyuan Street, with its scattered buildings and doors, was presented in front of everyone in a completely opposite manner.

Princess Chaoyun's Mansion was completely turned into a pile of scorched earth, the adjacent Zheng Guofu Mansion burned down most of it, Xiangfubo's Mansion was broken into eighty, and the entire Jingshi was filled with ashes, and it was difficult to have half a cent of clarity between the sky.

Gu Yin was almost white-headed overnight, but at this moment, the Divine Dragon Admiral who had completed the imperial mission was riding across the treasure horse and galloping towards the Jingshi!

Although the fire gradually subsided, everyone present completely gave up hope, even if Princess Chaoyun and the maid in front of her were able to resist the assassination of the dead with their unique skills, and it was tantamount to climbing to the sky with the four children to get out of the fire. I don't know when the goose feathers and snow that fell from the sky mixed with the cold wind made the atmosphere floating above Lingyuan Street solemn to the extreme.

Yonglin slowly knelt down in front of the ruins, and behind him, Yongyang Golden Pupil, Jin Yan, Yongrong, Yongxu, Jin Chunjin, and Jin followed and bowed, and the Gu Fu people, helping relatives, and even the guards and servants who were present all knelt down.

"Mother, can we go out? Gu Mao twisted his neck, "It's stuffy here!"

"Aoi. The lady sitting in the dark room is the immortal Princess Chaoyun, "You knock on the door and see if anyone is up there." ”

"Good. Gu Kui agreed and climbed up, "Mother, it's not hot anymore." ”

"Ghost, ghost, ghost, ghost!" The official who cleared the scene heard the movement, his hair stood on end, and he threw away his hook and shovel and ran away, "Help! Help...... Someone's coming...... Help ......"

Yonglin jumped up violently: "You say it again!"

Yacha's face was as earth-colored: "Your Highness, there is ...... Ghosts...... No...... Is there a sound...... There was ......"

Jin Yan hurriedly wiped a handful of tears: "Brother, Princess Chaoyun can't be murdered easily, let's go and take a look!"

When several princes led the team to the ruins of the main courtyard, Gu Chong, who was nearby, had already held a big shovel and led people to eradicate the scorched wood, Yonglin couldn't care about it, and grabbed an iron hoe to help, and the guards couldn't stop it, so they simply worked together, but after a cup of tea, the stainless steel gate on the ground was completely presented in front of everyone.

Yonglin was stunned for a moment, and was about to lean over when he threw away the shovel, but the guard hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "The prince is careful, let the ministers come!"

"Get out of the way!" Yongdong pushed away the guards, rolled up his sleeves and lifted them with his brother, and the three of them came to help, and turned the more than 100-pound stainless steel gate aside.

Before everyone could look inside, a small head was exposed: "Mother, someone!

The gray-faced prince looked at it intently, and the little head that was exposed was not his son-in-law, and he hugged Gu Mao with great joy: "Found it! Found it!"

After the great sorrow, there was even greater joy, seeing that Qin Siyue (Longxi) mother and son were safe and sound, up and down suddenly boiling, Yonglin stared straight at his cousin and muttered: "I know! ”

"Old Seven!" Yongyang hurriedly assigned his younger brother, "Immediately return to the palace and report the good news to the Empress Dowager's grandmother and father!"

Qin Siyue (Long Xi) looked left and right, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh to Xia Lian: "Don't accumulate great hatred, why not?"

Xia Lian was indignant: "These Xiaoxiao who secretly murdered the enemy, and they don't inquire about who the master is!"

"The calamity is also a certainty!" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) pinched the corners of her forehead, "Let's think about it in the long run!"

Gu Yin, Mrs. Zhang, and Gu Lian stumbled over when they got the news, and when they saw that Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was safe, they hugged Gu Kui, Gu Mao, and Gu Ling with joy and asked in every possible way, and Yue Shi pulled his daughter Su Su and asked: "Why did this catastrophe happen to a good person! Which one is bold and reckless, do you know it in your heart?"

Before Qin Siyue (Long Xi) could speak, Xia Lian walked up to Yonglin and folded her hands: "Prince, the fire in the princess's mansion started in the stable, and the left side of the stables is the lower part of the singing girl in the Zhongyong Palace, please ask Your Highness to investigate in detail!"

Yonglin hurriedly asked Jingzhao Mansion: "Where is the singing girl in Yongwangfu?"

Jing Zhaoyin replied: "There are a total of twelve singing girls in the Zhongyong Palace, and now only Zhang Haoyue's whereabouts are unknown. ”

"Carefully encircle them, and the father will interrogate them himself. Yonglin also knew that the four emperor uncles and Princess Chaoyun had always been in trouble, so where could they manage a lot now? He immediately ordered Jin Yan, "Sixth, according to my intentions, this matter should be tried by the three law divisions at the same time, and you are now in charge of the criminal department, but you can go and ask your father to come by will." ”

Princess Chaoyun's Mansion is not a place to accumulate wealth, Qin Siyue (Longxi) has lived in the Shenlong General's Mansion for a long time, the emperor's guard and steward are allocated by the household department, and the ordinary steward's case silver appears every month from the Qian Zhuang Branch, and the rare antiques are still in the Jinhua Palace, and now the damage is just the floating wealth of the mansion.

Gu Yin and his wife shouted at their grandchildren, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) saw her in-laws and knew that they must be tired for days, so she immediately sent Gu Kui and Gu Mao to go back to the house with the adults to rest, Jin Chun hurriedly said: "I have sent someone to call the imperial doctor, and I will show you too." ”

"No need!" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) looked at Yonglin, "Where is the envoy of the Longxiang Kingdom?"

Yonglin replied: "It's all confined in the Li Fan Yuan. ”

Qin Siyue (Long Xi) nodded: "Okay!"

The chief manager of the three mansions submitted an approximate list of casualties according to his order, and Qin Siyue (Long Xi) took a cursory look: there were fifty-two people who were trapped in it and could not escape, and there were ninety-three people who were seriously injured, all of whom were used by the princess's mansion, and the rest were not seriously injured, not very bad.

Brother Yonglin repeatedly urged Qin Siyue (Long Xi) to rest first, and the main owner couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "Now in this scene, how can I sleep soundly!"

After waiting for the East Palace Guards to escort Xia Lian back with the silver, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was placed and distributed on the spot: "The righteous soldiers who died in the line of duty will be rewarded with two thousand taels of silver each, and then according to the monthly rules of each person's life, a ten-year paper gift will be added, and the injured will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver, and the medical expenses will be paid from the public, and the monthly routine for recuperation will remain the same. ”

The account room wrote them down one by one, and Qin Siyue (Long Xi) said: "In addition to the Jingzhao Mansion and the Water Dragon Team of the Military Department, there are also helpers from various prefectures, and each person will also be rewarded with ten taels of silver. All the princesses' mansions, Zheng Guo's mansions, and the earl's mansions will be settled in the Jinhua Palace, and the aftermath will be temporarily resided in the Shenlong General's Mansion!"

Xia Lian asked for instructions again: "Master, Grandma Fang has stopped Zheng Guofu, and her body is fortunate to have not been burned, but you have to report it to the Huang family." ”

"True righteous people!" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) burst into tears, "If it weren't for Grandma Fang's exhaustion to report the news, we still don't know where we are!"

Xia Lian is also full of feelings: "It's just because the master treats her well, otherwise she is a passerby so far, where is there today's good results." ”

Qin Siyue (Long Xi) turned around and told Yu Yonglin to know: "Grandma Fang is an old relative of the Shenlong General's Mansion, by chance, she got my help, and she was an agricultural master of Cong'er, I don't know where I heard that there was a dead man who came to plot, braved the wind and snow to come to report the news, and died at the intersection, and when the fire started, I was vigilant, and luckily escaped with Mao'er. It's not Grandma Fang, now she has already become the soul of the dead man!"

Yonglin ordered to serve and teach him to return the coffin to the Huang family, and discussed with Yongyang to ask for a seal for her before the queen drove, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) instructed the Yellow Gate of the East Palace to pass the word, and it was necessary to do the funeral of Grandma Fang.

Knowing that Princess Chaoyun was safe, the whole Forbidden City had already celebrated, and the Son of Heaven of Yongtai eased his spirit and suddenly became angry: "I have been merciful, and since I dare to murder Princess Chaoyun today, I don't know that I will not be able to murder the palace in the future? If I don't investigate to the end this time, wouldn't I be the Son of Heaven in vain!"

The ministers only responded: "The emperor is sage!"

Jin Yan relayed the meaning of the prince, and took advantage of the situation to add: "This case is extremely related, and it needs to be appointed by the holy will of the father, and it is necessary to strictly investigate the internal affairs to avoid hidden disasters for the society." ”

The emperor issued a decree in the court: "The three law divisions of the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Inspectorate will be organized, and the commander-in-chief of the King of Jingjun, and the King of Yujun, the King of Qianjun, the Ming Fang, and the Qin Kuo will co-organize, and give you a one-month deadline, if you have not found out the inside information, you don't have to see me again!"

King Jingjun took the lead in leading the decree, and the emperor said: "I allow you to act cheaply, up to the prince's Yuansu, down to the soap and white body, but if you have doubts, you can take it, and you don't have to play it anymore!"

King Jingjun is one of the four princes of Taizong who are most responsible for the emperor today, King Yujun is still the emperor's brother-in-law, King Qianjun is the prince, Ming Fang is the chief official of Dali Temple, and Qin Kuo is the brother of Princess Chaoyun.
