Chapter 57: The Heavenly Prison Fires
This night, Feng Qingfang hardly slept much, after leaving Mu Liancheng, her heart couldn't settle down, as soon as she closed her eyes, his figure repeatedly appeared in her mind, I don't know what was wrong.
Tossing and turning on the grass, she couldn't sleep, and suddenly she sat up suddenly, slapped her face hard, and said in her heart, could it be that she liked Mu Liancheng?
That's not good!
No, no, no......
Feng shook his head vigorously and lay back to sleep.
At this time, there was a faint sound outside, and she couldn't sleep anyway, so she pricked up her ears to listen, only to hear that it was very noisy in the distance, and someone was shouting: "It's water, come on, it's water!" ”
Flow? Isn't that just a fire?
Feng couldn't help but be startled, quickly stood up, ran to the railing and looked out, just as he saw the jailers running out in a hurry.
The warden said, "Leave four people on duty, and the rest of me will go to the west prison with me to put out the fire!" Hurry up, slow down, didn't you eat? ”
The prison in the capital is divided into two parts, the east prison where Feng Qingfang is located, which is mostly female prisoners, and the west prison is opposite, and the male prisoners are held inside.
It was the middle of the night, the prisoners were asleep, and the guards were dozing.
Feng Qingfang felt that this matter was not simple.
The sound outside is getting louder and louder, and the fire seems to be increasing, and I don't know if it will spread here, Feng Qingfang was secretly worried.
At this time, on the side of the West Prison, Da You and Er You and others were organizing the jailers to fight the fire.
The fire spread quickly, and almost all the jailers went out to do their work, looking at the red-hot half of the sky, and thinking of something.
"Not good!"
Dayou exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly ran inside.
However, when he ran to Wang Xiong's cell, he saw that Wang Xiong was still sitting well, and there was no one around, which was not wrong.
Was the fire just an accident?
"Dayou, what are you doing, come and put out the fire!" Eryou is already very busy, if this fire can't be stopped, the consequences are unimaginable, the house burns down, it's nothing, the key is that the prisoners inside will take advantage of the chaos to escape.
Dayou hammered his head, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "Could it be ......?"
Eryou doesn't know why, I really want to slap him awake.
"What is it? Come and ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was dragged by Da You, "Second You, you take care of Wang Xiong, I'll go to the East Prison to have a look!" ”
"But ......"
Da Youfei rushed to the east prison, and sure enough, when he saw several jailers being knocked to the ground, his heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Then he ran to the place where Feng Qingfang was, the cell door had been opened, and the people inside were gone.
What a move! It turned out that the target of the arson was not Wang Xiong, but Miss Fengsan!
Dayou hurriedly pulled out the prisoner in the opposite cell and asked, "Who took Miss Fengsan away?" ”
The other person replied, "It's a masked man in a night suit, who knows who?" ”
Masked people? Who will rob the three girls? What is his purpose?
There was no time to think about it now, so Dayou hurriedly sent someone into the palace to report the situation here to Mu Liancheng, and then Mu Liancheng hurried over, feeling very sorry for the empty prison for a while.
"It was my negligence that I focused on guarding against Wang Xiong's side, but I neglected here."
"Dayou, immediately gather everyone, search in the city, block all city gates, and don't open the door at dawn tomorrow, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find out the people for me!"
Dayou didn't dare to delay in the slightest, and hurriedly took the order and left.
Er You frowned and said, "Your Highness, did you say that it was the murderer of the queen who kidnapped the three girls and wanted to kill them?" ”
Mu Liancheng shook his head and said: "No, if the real murderer comes to kill, he can do it directly in prison, there is no need to take it away and kill again, in addition, the murderer originally needs a scapegoat, and it is most useful to keep Feng Qingmad, how can he kill her?" ”
Reasonable! The second tour is even more confusing now.
Mu Liancheng walked out slowly, and at this time, the fire in the West Prison had been extinguished, and the smell of burnt was wafting in the air, which was extremely unpleasant, and he couldn't help frowning.
At this moment, a person suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Could it be that he took the frivolous maniac?"
"Eryou, you immediately send people to search all the dens of Sanssouci Gate in the city, and arrest all the people who have something to do with Sanssouci Gate, and not let any of them go!"
"Yes, my subordinates will do it!"
Eryou left in a hurry, and Mu Liancheng returned to the Prince's Mansion, waiting for news while taking a short rest to recuperate.
Now it is basically certain that the person who robbed Feng Qingmad is Jiang Mingche, because he is the only one who has this motive and ability.
Jiang Mingche has been staying in the capital, the purpose is to let Feng Qingmad go with him, now Feng Qingmad is in prison, if there is one more fugitive charge, he can't stay in the capital anymore, even if he doesn't want to leave.
He's trying to force her!
Just frivolous? Will she willingly go away with him?
Mu Liancheng was originally a very confident person, but after the last incident, in front of Feng Qingyan, his confidence became not so sufficient.
At dawn, Mu Beituo, who was in the Three Kings' Mansion, learned the news of the fire in the prison and the robbery of Feng Qingfang, and immediately called his henchmen over.
"You hurry up and go to the prison and take care of Wang Xiong, remember, act cautiously, don't leave any clues."
The henchman hesitated: "Lord Wang, the prison is full of His Royal Highness the Prince's eyeliner, and the villain is afraid that even if he succeeds in sneaking in, it will be very difficult to get his hands on, in case he ......"
"Huh! Now that the prince is busy looking for Feng Qingmad, where does he have the energy to take care of Wang Xiong? The people in the prison must have been sent out," Mu Beituo smiled and took a sip of tea, "You just have to mix in first and see the right time before you start." ”
Although the henchman was a little suspicious, he didn't dare to say much, so he had to give up his hand and say: "My subordinates obey orders." ”
Seeing that the scourge in the prison was about to be eliminated, Mu Beituo was in a good mood, and after using it too early, he was ready to go out to run errands.
When passing by the back garden, I met a maid who came over with a panicked look, holding a casserole in her hand, Mu Beituo recognized that this was the personal maid Xi'er brought by Feng Qingwu from the Guogong Mansion.
"What are you holding?"
Xi'er was startled and almost dropped the casserole.
"Lord Wang? The slave and maid greet the prince! ”
Mu Beituo saw that her face was pale and nervous, and she was even more sure that she was weird.
"What do you hold in your hand?"
"Yes, it's a freshly boiled medicine, and I'm going to take it to my young lady." When Xi'er replied, her eyes dodged, obviously weak-hearted.
"Is she sick? Then the king went and looked. Mu Beituo said that he was about to turn around.
Xi'er hurriedly said, "No! The slave maid means that the young lady is just a minor illness and is not in the way, and the prince is busy with official business, so don't worry about it. ”
"How's that going to work? This king's beloved concubine is sick, how can he ignore it? ”
"Lord Wang!" Xi'er was anxious to catch up, but Mu Beituo ignored it and instead accelerated his pace.
Entering the room, he smelled a strong smell of medicinal wine coming to his face, Mu Beituo frowned, and strode into the inner room, but saw Feng Qingwu lying on the bed, a face so swollen that he almost didn't recognize it.
"Lord Wang? What are you doing here? Feng Qingwu jumped up suddenly, and she couldn't care about the injuries on her body, "Did Xi'er's dead girl tell you something?" ”
Mu Beituo was very distressed when he saw that she was so badly injured, and he wanted to help her, but when he heard this, he held back again.
"She said that you were injured, but she didn't dare to let this king know, but there was a ghost in her heart, and this king didn't believe it, but now that you are so nervous, it seems to be true."
Feng Qingwu's heart trembled, if he knew that he had gone to trouble Feng Qingwu again, he would definitely be furious.
"Lord, that girl is talking nonsense, the concubine body just went out yesterday and met a few unreasonable shrews, and was beaten for no reason, the concubine body was worried about damaging the prince's face, so she asked the subordinates to shut up, that's all."
"Really? What enmity do you have against them? What are you doing to beat you well? "Mu Beituo is not stupid, he can see through this lie at a glance.
"This ......"
"It's okay if you don't tell the truth, this king will know if he asks Xi'er."
As soon as Mu Beituo turned around, his sleeve was pulled by Feng Qingwu, and he could hear infinite grievances in her soft voice.
"The concubine went to visit the third sister in the prison yesterday, and the concubine just wanted to see how she was doing, but I didn't expect that before she finished a few words, she beat me up, and I couldn't resist, so it became like this."
"This is all beaten by Feng Qing?" Mu Beituo looked back at Feng Qingwu, his eyes were full of shock and anger, and then he turned to pity, stretched out his hand to hug her shoulder and said, "That woman, it's too ruthless!" The next time this king sees her, he must be angry for the light dance! ”
I can't imagine that Mu Beituo is so easy to deceive!
Feng Qingwu leaned over and sobbed softly, but the corners of her mouth were smiling.
"Lord, third sister, she has too deep prejudice against me, and she always thinks that I am going to harm her, so this is ......"
Before he finished speaking, Mu Beituo realized something, his face suddenly changed, and he said in a deep voice: "You are going to kill her, aren't you?" ”
Feng Qingwu was stared at by his cold eyes, and her hairs stood on end.
"What did you say, king, lord? Concubine, how could a concubine kill the third sister? She's my sister! ”
"This is not the first time, do you really think that this king is so easy to fool?" Mu Beituo's eyes were half-squinted, and his gaze was glued to Feng Qingwu's swollen face like a pig's head, and a sense of disgust arose.
Feng Qingwu, who thought that he had been deceived in the past, suddenly fell into the quagmire from the clouds, and his body was cold and thorough.
"Lord, the concubine knows that she is wrong, but the concubine is also doing this for ......"
"Don't say anything for this king, this king is tired of hearing this!" Mu Beituo pushed her on the bed without pity, "This king has long said that Feng Qing's life must be taken by me personally, and no one is allowed to move, but you have repeatedly disobeyed my orders, don't you want to stay in this mansion?" ”
Feng Qingwu also became angry for a while, and sneered: "If the prince is ruthless, can Feng Qingwu still live today?" You can't even afford to kill her! ”
