Chapter 838: Walking the Water
"The fifth prince is planning to protect himself?" It's all foxes, how can they not understand each other's thoughts.
"Don't worry, I naturally won't relax in this kind of thing, I have already sent someone to Jiangyin County to keep an eye on the people related to Tian Xiaomeng, as long as they have the slightest move, they can be classified as accomplices of Ziyun Palace."
Zuo Hanyi smiled.
Sometimes he really likes the Five Princes, insidious and cunning.
"The fifth prince thought of me in front of me, in my opinion, the people in the entire Jiangyin County may be the companions of the Ziyun Palace, do you say the fifth prince?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, each taking a glass of wine.
Two different people, with different ghosts for the same thing.
I don't know how long it took, but the two went back to their rooms.
In the dark, the slender figure of a figure jumped out of the hospital.
The inside and outside of the Jiang Mansion were people from Zuo Hanyi and the Fifth Prince Su Hong, and what she told them was originally improvised, not what Chen Jiayuan said at all.
Of course, she said this for her purpose.
She was waiting outside the gate of Jiang's mansion, she was waiting for someone, someone who might appear here.
She waited for half the night, and before she could wait for the person she wanted to wait for, she was about to leave, when she heard smoke coming out of Jiang's mansion, and then she heard someone shouting inside: Go water, go water.
Xiao Meng stood on the courtyard wall and looked at the direction of the fire in Jiang's mansion, and couldn't guess which courtyard was in the direction of the fire.
Not long after Zuo Hanyi and the fifth prince returned to their courtyard, there was news that the study of the Jiang Mansion was walking on the other side, and they hurriedly put on their cloaks and went to the other end of the study.
Met Madame Chiang halfway through.
When Madame Jiang saw the two distinguished guests, she inevitably had to salute: "The concubine has seen the five princes, Lord Zuo." ”
When Jiang Cheng was alive, he did not meet a noble person living in the mansion, and he did not expect that as soon as he died, the current prince and the emperor's trusted guards lived in the Jiang mansion one after another.
It's a pity that she is a lady, and she doesn't need to appear in front of them if it weren't for the needs of etiquette.
Generally speaking, although she is now the master of the Jiang Mansion, she is a dispensable person to them.
"Okay, how can you walk in the water." Zuo Hanyi's eyes were cold, his handsome face was slightly wrinkled and he looked at the place where the fire was rising not far away, and asked Mrs. Jiang unhappily.
Mrs. Jiang was not favored in the Jiang family before, if Jiang Cheng hadn't died suddenly, according to Jiang Cheng's temperament, maybe she would have to bring another flat wife up and share the power of the family with her.
Today is different from the past, Jiang Cheng is dead, and there are still some family backgrounds, she sent away all those red, green and green concubines, and the current Jiang Mansion can be said to be a lot cleaner.
Her face is not big, she is beautiful and small, and she is a typical Nanzhou city beauty.
Hearing Zuo Hanyi's question, she twisted her handkerchief with both hands: "Back to Lord Zuo, the concubine has just received the news and doesn't know the cause of the fire, so the two nobles are here, so let's go over and have a look." ”
The direction of the fire is the direction of the study, and the study is not far from the warehouse, thinking of something, she was shocked and sped up her steps, she must not let the fire burn to the warehouse, otherwise the Jiang family's family will really be burned by a fire.
Without these family backgrounds, how will she live with her children in the future.
"Ma'am." The housekeeper was directing the fire at the scene: "Madam, this fire came strangely, as if someone deliberately set the fire, Madam, I heard that this kind of situation happened a few days ago, it was all set on fire to kill people, madam, according to the old slave, this fire in our house is also related to Ziyun Palace." "There have been fires in the house for several nights in a row, and the scene is quite miserable, who would it be if it wasn't for the Ziyun Palace.
Mrs. Jiang saw that the fire was about to rise, and she didn't want to take care of the study now, but just wanted to keep the warehouse: "Butler Bao, you quickly take someone to bring the fire in the study down, and I will take a few people to the warehouse to have a look, remember not to let the fire burn to the warehouse." ”
"Madame, rest assured, the old slave will do his best to extinguish the fire." The housekeeper took a look at the fire, the fire was getting stronger and stronger, and he thought about it for a while and a half, but it was not easy to extinguish it.
Madame Jiang watched the fire grow and couldn't take care of the five princes and Zuo Hanyi, so she took some maids and servants to the treasury.
Zuo Hanyi looked at the sudden fire, squinted his eyes and looked at the five princes, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling: "The speed of the five princes is really fast, and the subordinates really admire it." ”
The fifth prince listened to his words, and his eyebrows were put together: "It's not me." ”
Zuo Hanyi looked at him, not like he was lying: "It seems that not only us, but there are also people who want Ziyun Palace to die more than us." ”
The fifth prince didn't speak, but just instructed the deputy general Chai Mu: "Take someone to help put out the fire, maybe there are secrets in this study." ”
The other party's target is accurate, and he came straight to the study, hoping that there was something unsightly in the prefect's study.
Chai Mu took people to extinguish the fire, the five princes all asked people to put out the fire, Zuo Hanyi had no reason not to send someone to put out the fire, and there were two nobles, and the fire was extinguished at once.
Mrs. Jiang watched that the fire did not burn to the side of the warehouse, and her hanging heart fell.
"The concubine thanked His Royal Highness Fifth and Lord Zuo, if it weren't for your help, this big Jiang Mansion would have been buried in the sea of fire."
The fifth prince did not respond to his words and went into the study alone.
There were still some small flames in the study, and it was pitch black everywhere, and it had long since lost its grandeur.
"Go and get Madame Chiang."
"Your Highness, you look for me." Madame Chiang gave in to the five princes.
"I have something to ask you, and you have to answer it truthfully."
"Your Highness has something to ask, and the concubine must know everything." Madame Jiang was in a daze, and she didn't understand what the fifth prince wanted to ask her.
"Let me ask you, how many years have you wanted to live in this Jiang Mansion."
"Back to Your Highness, we have lived in for more than ten years, this house is left by the previous prefect, the previous prefect because of a mistake, was dismissed from the top, became a commoner, I heard that the lord was dismissed not long after, he fell off the horse and died, my lord was dismissed after the previous prefect was dismissed, naturally, he also bought this house, if I remember correctly, some books were left by the previous prefect."
"Master Jiang didn't have any secrets to keep secret from you, such as money or others." The fifth prince looked into her eyes.
Madame Jiang was so frightened that she fell to her knees: "Your Highness, my lord did not favor the concubine during his lifetime, and the lord never told the concubine the relevant secrets, if the concubine knew it, she would definitely tell His Royal Highness, and I would not dare to hide it if I had 100,000 guts." ”
"All right, go down, and if you know anything, you will come and tell me." The fifth prince waved his hand irritably.
