Bai Jinli looked at the people in front of her, and it was very lively, but she couldn't help frowning slightly.

In this kind of crowded situation, it should still be very difficult to find Xu Zhao.

Although Lin Shenyuan didn't say much, Bai Jinli also probably guessed something.

In the past, Lin Shenyuan was a dull and idle person.

But when she mentioned that matter just now, a trace of unconcealable nervousness flashed on Lin Shenyuan's face.

What does this mean, it shows that what is about to happen may be more difficult to figure out.

Moreover, Lin Shenyuan's friend Xu Zhao was also involved.

"Lady, don't worry too much, let's go upstairs first."

Just when Bai Jinli began to diverge her thoughts and think about those things, Lin Shenyuan's cold voice with a hint of soothing power sounded in her ears.

Immediately after, he directly took her hand and led her to the window on the second floor of the tea house in a good location.

After asking for refreshments, the little servant closed the door and withdrew.

"Lady, sit here and wait for me, I'll be back soon."

"Okay, there you go." Bai Jinli nodded.

Lin Shenyuan didn't leave for a long time, and he came back after a while.

"Xianggong, did you go to find Xu Zhao?"

"No, it's not the time yet. Lady, come and sit down, and I'll tell you what's going on. ”

"Uh-huh." Bai Jinli walked next to him and sat down, listening to him talk about the things in his previous life.

Xu Zhao in the previous life had exactly the same temperament as he is now, and he was a particularly upright and upright minister.

Because his temperament is too straightforward, when he encounters that kind of side-rubbing officialdom transactions, he doesn't know how to be flexible at all and be convenient with others.

Because of his uprightness, he offended some people in the court, and those people felt that he was an eyesore and a bad person, so they wanted to take out their anger on him.

So those people tried their best to trick Xu Zhao into Xiao Ji's side, wanting Xiao Ji to confuse him into making mistakes.

Xiao Ji is the kind of woman who has beauty, but also gathers talent and good character and life.

What's more, her background sounds pitiful, and she happens to be a fellow countryman with Xu Zhao.

Xu Zhao is an older single man who has never married, and he has always been self-denying and polite, and he has behaved.

But I can't stand the unintentional design of those people around me again and again.

After coming and going, he was extremely innocent, and he really had a heart for Xiao Ji, and he wanted to help her redeem herself.

The people who were offended by Xu Zhao couldn't wait to watch him fall into trouble so that they could come forward to mock him.

They originally wanted to take advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival to design a fragrant picture of Xu Zhao and Xiao Ji together, and let everyone see it.

In that case, a person like Xu Zhao who is upright and upright will definitely feel that he has no face on his face, and he is ashamed of heaven and earth, and he is ashamed of His Majesty.

Then he either resigned and returned to his hometown, or they grabbed the handle and ridiculed him.

After all, no matter what they said, they didn't want to really kill Xu Zhao, they just wanted to teach him a lesson.

But in this case, something happened.

Because that Xiao Ji's identity is forged, her real identity is a fine work of the tortoiseshell country, and she came to the Great Qi Kingdom to do things.

That's why those who want to frame Xu Zhao find her, and when she does something to Xu Zhao, it's easy for her to nod and agree.

The news that they would play the repertoire for the team that won the dragon boat competition had already been released by Xiao Ji.

Her flower boat also found a place to dock before the Dragon Boat Festival, in order to lay out the scene.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Xu Zhao happened to be present, and she invited Xu Zhao to the flower boat on the reason of inviting Xu Zhao to help her check the dictionary.

However, not long after Xu Zhao got on the flower boat, he was knocked unconscious.

Then the flower boat suddenly spontaneously combusted, Xiao Ji played and sang the song, shouting Xu Zhao's name in a panic, and slowly disappeared.

The flower boat was destroyed, and Xiao Ji was also burned to death in full view, but Xu Zhao was unharmed.

Then, Xu Zhao was arrested as a suspect.

Xiao Ji, who faked her death, took the opportunity to deliberately release the news that Xu Zhao had a grudge against those ministers of the DPRK and China, so she set up a maze, in order to provoke the freezing chaos of the Great Qi Kingdom.

After Xu Zhao was arrested and imprisoned, there was news that the ministers of the DPRK and China deliberately framed him.

At this time, Xu Zhao was killed in prison.

Those ministers of the DPRK and China, who were very involved, instantly became the target of public criticism.

Later, if Lin Shenyuan hadn't come forward to investigate this matter, no one knew how many people in the court that Xiao Ji could have harmed.

It is no exaggeration to even use Xiao Ji to describe what happened at that time.

After Bai Jinli heard Lin Shenyuan say these things, she couldn't help but sigh in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ji, who became famous, looked beautiful and particularly talented, turned out to be a ruthless character who was quiet.

It's no wonder that the first time she saw Xiao Ji, she always had an indescribable feeling.

"In that case, Xianggong, what are you going to do?"

"I don't plan to stop Xu Zhao from getting on the boat, just plan it." Lin Shenyuan replied.

"Well, it seems that you already have a plan, so I'll just watch from the sidelines?"

"Well, it's good for the lady to sit and watch, I'll have someone buy something you like, and I'll come in a while."

"Huh? Okay. Bai Jinli nodded.

Okay, her husband is so reliable, what else does she have to worry about, just sit and watch the play.

The dragon boat race on the moat below soon kicked off.

There are a lot of teams participating, and it's really lively.

The race was a little long, back and forth for eight times, and the onlookers were almost hoarse, and finally decided the first place in this year's dragon boat race.

After the award was awarded, Xiao Ji's flower boat sailed to the middle of the moat, which was particularly conspicuous.

Just when everyone was looking forward to it, the graceful Xiao Jitingting walked out of the flower boat.

She wore a veil made of beads, and her eyes were faintly sad and untouched, and her clothes were of the kind of white, with patterns embroidered with earthy gold.

Under the sun, it looks extraordinarily good.

It's really as Lin Shenyuan said.

She first apologized to everyone, saying that her recent new score always felt a little weird, and she hoped that someone would come and help her point out.

It was at this time that Xu Zhao in the crowd was pushed out.

Xu Zhao was sent to the flower boat in a small boat, and began to help Xiao Ji change the score in front of everyone.

After he finished changing it, Xiao Ji really praised him, and everyone shouted with envy and hatred.

Bai Jinli, who was standing on the second floor, even saw Xu Zhao's red earlobes and unnatural complexion.

Next, Xiao Ji opened her mouth to temporarily enter the cabin to change the score and ask everyone to wait for a while.

During this period, she also invited Xu Zhao in.

It was at this time that Bai Jinli couldn't help asking.

"Xianggong, don't you do it?"

"Don't worry, I've already arranged it."

"Uh-huh." When Bai Jinli heard him say this, she stopped talking and continued to stare out the window.

Not long after, everyone vaguely watched Xiao Ji come out with the pipa in her arms.

As soon as her fingers touched the lute and the first note sounded in mid-air, someone suddenly shouted.

"Ah, look, the flower boat is on fire!"

"What's going on? It's so decent, how could Miss Xiao Ji's flower boat catch fire? ”

"Someone, go and save Miss Xiao Ji."

"The fire is too fierce, how can there be such a big fire all of a sudden?"

"I don't know, what about the man who just got on the boat? He couldn't have set this fire, right? ”

"Ah, what's going on? This ......"

“……”

There was a noise outside, there were discussions, and there were people shouting words such as "Tell the officer", "Save people" and so on.

There were even people who started running and shouting indiscriminately because they were uneasy.

The scene became more and more out of control with the ferocity of the fire.

However, it was at this time that Bai Jinli saw Zhao Ranran's cousin Zhao Yi, who appeared in front of everyone with the guards and began to maintain order.

With the appearance of the guards he brought with him, the scene was quickly pacified.

At this moment, the flower boat in the moat has been burned to the ground, and no one can be seen for a long time.

"Someone, go over and check the cause of the fire in the flower boat." Zhao Yi opened his mouth and commanded.

"Yes, Lord Zhao."

"You follow the flow of the moat on both sides and see if there is any trace?"

"Yes."

"You guys, don't let anyone near the scene here."

"And you, go over and ask everyone to see if there are any anomalies during this period?"

“……”

After Zhao Yi's orderly arrangement, although everyone was still panicked, it was much better than before.

Bai Jinli couldn't help but speak.

"Xianggong, Zhao Yi was also invited by you, right?"

"Hmm."

"It's still my father-in-law's old plan."

"Old?" Lin Shenyuan was obviously a little dissatisfied with this idiom.

"Oh, it's wrong, I should say that I am handsome and chic, brave and strategic, both civil and military, Yushu is in the wind, and the wind is suave!"

"Come, Xianggong has worked hard, and I will reward you with a cherry."

As he spoke, Bai Jinli picked a cherry from the fruit bowl and stuffed it directly into Lin Shenyuan's mouth, not giving him a chance to refute at all.

Looking at Bai Jinli's cute and loving appearance, Lin Shenyuan couldn't help but chuckle.

"Lady, it's delicious, I want it more."

"Okay, here you go!"

——

Because something like this happened suddenly outside, and the people led by Zhao Yi deliberately blocked the scene, almost no one left the scene.

People don't really want to go.

After all, seeing this kind of unbelievable thing with my own eyes, I am still very curious in my heart.

They couldn't figure it out, how could a good flower boat suddenly catch fire when it said it was on fire?

And it was only for a split second, and the fire was suddenly so big.

It always feels very strange.

After all, this is on the water, and even if you set fire to the ship, it will take a certain amount of time to start a fire.

And water and fire are incompatible, but the flower boat is burning so vigorously.

I don't know what happened to the two people on the boat, whether they were dead or alive.
