Chapter 415: Is arson a tradition of the Gu family?

All the relevant files were put on the bookshelf, Gu Chang took out a few copies casually, and flipped through them casually, even Gu Chang herself didn't expect that she would have such good luck, the first one to get the dossier was the Queen Mother's.

The Queen Mother is also the concubine of the first emperor, that is to say, most of the files here are a book of things that record a person, no wonder these files are thin and thick, that is, because of this, the mother concubine of Shen Qianshan, who is about the same time as the Queen Mother, should be around here.

Gu Yan flipped through the surroundings, and indeed found a few files about Shen Qianshan's mother, but after putting it for a while, 1 suddenly felt that something was not right, indeed, generally speaking, such a secret room would indeed be warmer than the outside, but when she came in, there was obviously no light here, how could it be that she came in alone for such a short period of time, and it became so hot?

Since the last time Gu Yan came out of the woods, all her senses had become very dull, so she didn't feel that it was getting hotter and hotter outside at first, because the ancestral hall was actually on fire.

It wasn't until Gu Yan saw the fire at the exit that she reacted, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, when she just came in, she had already seen that the little eunuch who came in with her had already left, could it be that he turned back and lit a fire?

Gu Yan couldn't help coughing twice, she really didn't understand, why did such a thing suddenly happen? Could it really be that someone wants to trap herself in this place, on the way to come by herself, and met Gu Zhiyao for a long time, but is she really so stupid? I met her alone on the road, and if something really happened, wouldn't the biggest suspicion be her? Could she really be that stupid?

Gu Yan didn't have time to think about so many things now, now everything seemed not so important to herself, she was hiding in the secret room now, and she didn't know what the fire outside was burning, so now she had to find out all the files about Shen Qianshan's mother, otherwise if they spread to this place, these files would never be found.

Shen Qianshan's mother concubine was also the concubine of the first emperor, and most of the dossiers were placed in similar places as the queen mother, so he didn't have time to read them carefully, so he could only pick a few books that looked like them and picked them up.

Now it seems that you can only rely on luck to fight to the death, in case there really is, it stands to reason that the emperor's concubines will not have so many files, but like the queen mother and Shen Qianshan's concubine, the mother's family is relatively large, and the recorded things will be relatively detailed, and Gu Yan can be regarded as taking these things into account, so the two thicker ones in the sky are stuffed into her chest pocket.

When I hurriedly wanted to come out of the place I had entered before, Gu Chang found that the place where I walked when I came in, because there was a table outside, and the tablecloth was spread on the table, so it burned very badly, and just walked to the entrance, Gu Chang was blocked by the firelight, the fire spread so fast, it should have been someone deliberately arson, when I came in, I had already noticed that the tents around this place were far away from the candlesticks that burned incense, and they should not burn. How could such a thing happen all of a sudden?

Gu Chang checked the files he took out again, and after confirming that they were put away, he began to find a way to get out of this place, if he was found in the fire, he probably didn't know when, although it seemed that the fire would not burn to this place for the time being, but Gu Chang had now noticed that he was starting to have some difficulty breathing, and if he continued to stay here, he would definitely not last long.

If you are found in this place, the biggest suspicion of setting this fire is undoubtedly yourself, it seems that someone has noticed that he is walking towards him, so he deliberately found someone to follow, but who can do such a thing?

Anyone can see that during this recent period, Shen Zhongbai has a lot of trust in himself, if something really goes wrong at this time, those people in the court who don't like him, or those who feel that they are a threat to them, will definitely take this opportunity to attack themselves, if things are really done, Shen Zhongbai will not be able to sacrifice his reputation, and he is completely dispensable.

Shen Siyin also just came out of Taifu's side, but he didn't expect that as soon as he went out, he saw the sky-high fire from a distance, looking at the direction over there, he thought that something was wrong with Gu Zhiyao's side, but when he looked closer, he found that the ancestral hall next to Gu Zhiyao's dormitory was on fire, if it was somewhere else, it would be forgotten, it was the ancestral hall, if it ignited that place, it was a big deal, I don't know why, Shen Sayin felt a little flustered, and subconsciously ran in that direction.

"Princess, what are you going to do over there? The ancestral hall is on fire, and those palace people are fighting the fire there. ”

"Don't talk about this yet, hurry up and ask where Gu Suran is!"

Shen Siyin was also anxious all of a sudden, he just asked Gu Suran to wander around, he wouldn't really go to the ancestral hall, right?

In case of fire, whether he has an accident or not, this matter has nothing to do with him.

Shen Siyin inevitably Jude was a little flustered, he had also helped Gu Suran hide so many things before, in case of this East Window incident, no matter what, he would not be able to protect him.

At the entrance of the secret room, because there was a tablecloth spread on the table, it had already been burned to the sky, and he had no chance to come out at all, Gu Yan didn't know the pain at all now, so he couldn't feel how painful it was when the fire outside burned his hand.

But she knew that if she broke out so rashly, she would definitely burn all over her body, and now the place he brought was safe for the time being, after thinking about it for a long time, Gu Yan still decided, kicked open the table at the door with her foot, quickly drilled out of the hole, and finally rushed out, but the situation outside once again put Gu Yan in a desperate situation.

The surrounding curtains had been completely burned, and the doorway had been surrounded by fire, because it was a wooden door and window, and when the fire started, it burned even more at this time, and if I had stayed here, I was afraid that it would have been really hot to death.

The fire burned for a while before someone went to report to Shen Zhongbai.

"The emperor is not good, there is a fire on the side of the ancestral hall."

The eunuch in charge of the affairs of the harem hurriedly ran to Shen Zhongbai's door, and the palace people near the ancestral hall had already begun to put out the fire, so he had the opportunity to run out and report to Shen Zhongbai.

Shen Zhongbai and Feng Yao were discussing in the study, and when they heard this, they immediately became anxious, what is the ancestral hall? How could someone set fire to that place?

At this time, Shen Qianshan and Shen Zhongbai were discussing some things about the frontier fortress in the study, but they didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.

As soon as I heard that the matter was related to the ancestral hall, my heart suddenly hung up. Shen Qianshan was afraid that something would happen, so he also followed, after all, the ancestral hall was not only enshrined in Shen Zhongbai's ancestors, but also his own ancestors, and the ancestral hall was indeed an important existence for himself.

But why did it suddenly catch fire? Isn't there a special person guarding a place like that?

Shen Zhongbai hurriedly lifted his robe, and immediately followed the little eunuch to the direction of the ancestral hall, and when he walked on the road, he thought about asking what was going on.

"Who has been there today? Do you know who set the fire? Have you found out? Shen Zhongbai never felt that he would be so anxious, no matter how kingly he was, he was all on the side in front of such an important matter.

"Back to the emperor, I haven't found out who set the fire, but I heard the eunuchs and palace maids passing by around say that it seems that the master of the horse has been in and out of the ancestral hall today, and I don't know if he is still in it."

"Gu Suran? What was he going to do in that place? ”

As soon as Shen Zhongbai heard that Gu Suran had entered and left the country, his face immediately changed, and Shen Qianshan's face beside him instantly tensed, Chang'er must have helped him go in when he went to find the file, but why did he suddenly catch fire?

It's not that I haven't entered the ancestral hall, all the curtains will be cleaned up well, and there will rarely be open fires, even if you burn incense all day long, it is impossible to burn so much, someone must have deliberately set the fire, could it be that it was really done by Chang'er?

Shen Qianshan remained silent, silently following behind Shen Zhongbai, but his steps gradually accelerated, and now his mind was full of thoughts, what if his sister-in-law was still there?

Looking at the skyrocketing firelight, Shen Zhongbai and Shen Qianshan were both dumbfounded, "What the hell is going on?" What about the caretakers? ”

"When I returned to the emperor, the little eunuchs around me saw the fire, and when I came over, the fire was already burning fiercely, and I don't know if there was anyone inside."

Shen Qianshan stared at the window stiffly, the figure in the fire flickered by, but Shen Qianshan keenly caught that there were indeed people in the ancestral hall, although it was only a flash, he could still see that the figure was definitely Gu Yan.

"Your Majesty! There are still people in the fire! ”

After Shen Zhongbai heard this, he was also dumbfounded, "But now that the fire is so big, there is no way to rush in to save people." ”

Shen Qianshan looked at the little eunuch beside him, snatched the bucket in his hand, poured it directly on his head, and broke into the fire alone.
