Chapter 256: Surrounded by Suspicions
The aftermath of the explosion even spread to their side, especially Shangguan Juan, who was closest to the window, and was about to be injured when he saw it.
Suddenly, a small figure suddenly wanted to pull her away from the storm, the person didn't want Shangguan Juan to be injured, but he didn't expect that his current body was a child.
And Shangguan Juan is also an adult no matter how bad she is, this pull didn't pull or say, and almost made her fall to the ground when she was unstable, but fortunately, Shangguan Juan reacted in time and stabilized her body and squatted.
You can't leave without leaving, but it's better to be able to cover some of it now.
I don't know if the four of them were too lucky or what, the sound of the explosion began to slowly disappear, and it was determined that there would really be no aftermath.
Shangguan had the courage to go up to the window to look, and found that the Ministry of Officials and Ministers had fallen into a sea of fire, and the flames were like killing gods and enveloping the entire Ministry of Officials and Mansions.
No one dared to get close to it, only to stay away from that side.
"Miss, are you alright?" Mu Chenyu didn't worry about the things next to him, the first thing he did when he stood up was to care about Shangguan Juan's comfort.
glanced at her left and right and found that she was not injured, but Mu Chenyu still seriously grabbed her soft and asked this question.
His immature words completely recalled Shangguan Juan's thoughts, and she shook her head at his worried eyes: "It's okay, you pulled me, so I wasn't hurt." ”
Mu Chenyu originally didn't believe that she was being reckless, but seeing that there was nothing unusual on her face, and there were no wounds, she relieved her heart: "Fortunately, Miss is fine." ”
Ning Hou and Xie Jiang, who were watching the two of them from the side, were a little embarrassed when they saw the two of them pulling and pulling like this, but in the end, Ning Hou came back to his senses and quietly squeezed Mu Chenyu away to stand in front of his daughter: "Wanwan, what have you found?" ”
"Daddy, my daughter thinks that this explosion is very likely to be planned, and even my daughter suspects that this person must not have gone far, Daddy, you quickly send someone to find the person who set the fire and exploded, if you are lucky, there may be clues."
Shangguan Juan didn't hold it up, and said his thoughts, and Ning Hou, who had always loved his daughter, naturally went to order someone to do this matter as soon as he heard her words.
And for the sake of prudence, Ning Hou also followed the guards to investigate.
Only Shangguan Juan, Mu Chenyu and Xie Jiang were left in the same place, the atmosphere was a little grim, Xie Jiang finally decided to support Ning Hou in his heart, so he said goodbye to Shangguan Juan: "Shangguan girl, then Xie also went over to help Hou Ye." ”
"There's a Raucie son." Shangguan Wan politely bent down and saluted him.
Xie Jiang didn't say anything after giving a hand, and left the inn directly, which shows how serious the matter is this time.
Ning Hou and Xie Jiang left, but Shangguan Juan didn't want to go back to the mansion, just stood on the windowsill and looked at the direction of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials, with a worried look in his eyes.
Mu Chenyu, who was standing next to her, didn't disturb her, just stood beside her quietly and accompanied her, without mentioning the words of asking Shangguan Juan to go back as soon as possible.
Because he knew that Shangguan Juan was worried about Ning Hou's affairs at this moment, after all, he couldn't escape the blame for the loss of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials.
Just as he was thinking about something else, Shangguan Juan's rather cold voice sounded in the quiet inn: "Xiao Jiu, what do you think of this explosion?" ”
If Mu Chenyu is the identity of the current prince, he can naturally say his thoughts directly, but now that he is a little scholar, he always has some skills to answer.
"Someone is really behind it."
Shangguan Juan was silent for a while when he heard this, and then began to speculate: "You said that the cause of the explosion could be that someone deliberately set it on fire?" Or maybe it's not the work of one person. ”
Her guess is not unreasonable, if no one answers, that person will not just be so quiet, under the noses of several forces, he will so easily blow up the Ministry of Shangshufu.
After she raised these two points, she began to guess the possibilities of the explosion, and Mu Chenyu helped her guess together.
With his help in guessing, the two finally determined the two possibilities that Shangguan Juan had speculated about: someone was deliberately setting the fire, and there were other masterminds behind it.
"What is the young lady going to do next?" Mu Chenyu looked at her with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.
Sure enough, Shangguan Juan was completely different from the official woman next to her.
Although she doesn't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she knows some things well, unlike those famous ladies who only know how to embroider and admire the moon.
Shangguan Juan was about to speak, when she suddenly heard footsteps and even a knock on the door, and she said in a cold voice: "Who's outside!?" ”
"Miss, my subordinates are the personal guards beside the Hou Ye, and I came to escort you back on the orders of the Hou Ye."
The person outside answered Shangguan Juan's question, she gave Mu Chenyu a look, and he stepped forward to open the door.
"How's Daddy's doing?" Shangguan Juan saw the waist card of the Hou Mansion on the body of the person who came, and confirmed his identity in his heart and asked about Ning Hou's situation.
Hearing this, the guard replied respectfully: "Hou Ye's subordinates are not very clear, but the subordinates have seen Hou Ye before coming to the inn to make sure that Hou Ye is safe." ”
The guard's voice was not loud or small, but Shangguan Juan listened to it all, and after thinking about it, she still felt uneasy: "You don't have to escort Miss Ben back, Miss Ben will go back in the carriage by herself, you go back to fight with Daddy quickly, remember, no matter what the price, you must protect Daddy's safety." ”
"It's just that the escort lady is the order of the Hou Ye, and the subordinates ......"
It's not that the guards don't want to help, but they're just worried about being blamed by Ning Hou.
"Daddy's blame comes from Miss Youben, what are you afraid of." Shangguan Wan pretended to be dissatisfied and said, then thought of something and said again: "Unless you don't treat Miss Ben as your master, how can you not even listen to Miss Ben's orders?" ”
"Subordinates obey!"
The guards had no choice but to comply, and then turned to leave.
Shangguan Juan left the inn with Mu Chenyu after he left, and went to the back door, just wanted to get into the carriage, Mu Chenyu said that he had lost his things and wanted to go back to the inn to find them.
She didn't suspect it, so she asked him to go early and return early, she wanted to stay in the carriage and wait for him to be refused, so she had to go back with the carriage of Ninghou Mansion first.
And after Mu Chenyu entered the inn and watched Shangguan Juan's carriage leave, he did not enter the inn again, but turned in the opposite direction to the inn.
and went to the inn where Xiao Yu was.
"Has the arson of the Ministry of Shangshu Mansion been found?" As soon as Mu Chenyu came in, he directly asked about the progress of the matter.
Xiao Yu did not slack off, and 1510 told everything he knew.
Then he thought of something and added: "At the time of the incident, my subordinates had already sent someone to investigate, and the arsonist had been discovered. ”
