Chapter 39: A Conspiracy of Coincidence

I don't know who accidentally poured the oil into the stone rope, and as soon as the burning paper money entered, a raging fire suddenly ignited.

The tongue of fire skewept Lao Gao, and the sparks splashed everywhere, falling on Yan Qihuo's lilac brocade robe.

The silk brocade robe is soft, comfortable and breathable, but it is very flammable. The spark splashed up, and it ignited with a "boom".

Yan Qi couldn't be punished for kneeling, jumped up and slapped the fire on the brocade robe with his hand, but the more he patted the fire, the more he struck.

"Get on the ground!"

Everyone was stunned by this sudden change, and Yan Shaoxun reacted the fastest and shouted loudly.

Yan Qi was in a hurry, lay down on the ground and began to roll back and forth. Gu Fanghua came back to her senses and saw Yan Qihuo rolling on the ground, but her whole body began to catch fire, thinking of her original self, she opened her mouth but couldn't make any sound.

I can only shout in my heart: Extinguish! Extinguish!

Maybe the prayer in her heart was heard, maybe it was really effective to roll on the ground, and most of the fire on Yan Qihuo's body disappeared in an instant, and only the original corner of the robe still had zero sparks.

Yan Rongling also reacted, and took a few steps up to tear off Yan Qihuo's clothes and throw them outside the hall.

This series of changes is only between lightning and flint.

Gu Fanghua rushed up to inspect it carefully, and found that Yan Qihuo's hair was braided, but the tail tip was burned some. The face and neck were fine, only two more blisters on the hands made me feel relieved.

Xiao Anzi and Xiao Chengzi, who were waiting far outside the hall, were so frightened that their souls were scattered, and when they staggered over, Yan Qihuo, who was only in a middle coat, was fine.

"Master, master!"

Yan Qihuo was stunned, lying on the ground motionless, Xiao Anzi cried and looked around.

Yan Rongling calmed down and immediately ordered: "Xiao Chengzi, hurry, go and inform the queen mother, Xiao Anzi, you guard here and don't let anyone approach." Aunt Dongchun, please gather all the people who are guarding the temple and stay outside the temple. ”

Gu Fanghua condensed and said, "Sixth cousin, do you doubt it?" ”

Yan Rongling nodded, there are only four brocade mats in this hall, and the position of the stone thread is on the right, if it weren't for Yan Qihuo kneeling in this position, he should have been here.

There are people cleaning the temple every day, and there will be oil sprinkled into the stone threads that burn paper? Burning a little paper money to ignite such a big fire is definitely a conspiracy!

If it weren't for Mingzhu's mistaken burning of paper, it would have been burned in advance. Waiting for the people of Taimiao to come to the money paper every hour, I don't know how big the fire will be, and whether there will be a follow-up.

Yan Shaoxun secretly regretted in his heart, it stands to reason that Yan Qihuo is rolling quickly on the ground, the wind will be stronger, and the more oxygen will only make the fire burn bigger and bigger. The Internet also said that if there is a wound, it is more likely to become infected, is it wrong?

Sure enough, the news on the Internet was not credible.

Gu Fanghua stepped forward and took a closer look at Yan Qi's exposed skin, and he was really relieved that there was no major problem.

"Cousin Nine, it's okay, get up quickly."

Yan Qihuo sat up with the strength of Yan Rongling and Gu Fanghua, and looked at the Sanjiang Aya shirt that was burned to tatters and had holes everywhere, and his face was already distorted with anger.

"Who is it! Who is it! ”

Gu Fanghua said in a low voice: "Ninth cousin, the people in the Taimiao are all outside, and they will be interrogated slowly when the queen's aunt comes." You clean up first, the emperor's uncle and the queen's aunt will be here soon. ”

But Yan Qihuo didn't move, just sat on the ground, staring at Shi Yi with a gloomy face.

After a while, Empress Jiang arrived in a hurry, and she couldn't care about her demeanor and exclaimed in a panic: "Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu!" ”

Yan Shaoxun and Yan Rongling greeted them out, and Empress Jiang rushed directly to Yan Qihuo, half-knelt down and grabbed his hand, checking inch by inch.

"Aunt Queen, Cousin Ninth is fine, just burned some hair and had two blisters."

Gu Fanghua's kind intentions and persuasion caused Queen Jiang's anger that had been pent up in her heart since she heard the news. He said, "What do you mean by only two blisters?" How could Xiao Jiu be here? How could it catch fire? Why did he burn him alone? ”

Yan Rongling hurriedly explained: "Queen Mother, the ninth brother has a deep brotherly relationship, and when he saw me and the fifth brother being punished, he came to accompany me and the fifth brother to kneel, but we didn't know what was going on, and the people in the Taimiao Temple were all gathered outside and asked the queen mother to deal with it." ”

Empress Jiang calmed down a little at this time, but seeing that her son was full of burned holes, and there were also a few holes in the dark purple brocade pants below, her heart was uneasy.

Just as he was about to get up and interrogate this group of damned minions, he caught a bright yellow out of the corner of his eye. quickly turned to Yan Qihuo and cried: "Xiao Jiu, you scared the queen mother to death!" ”

Yan Qihuo was indeed frightened, no matter how arrogant and domineering she was on weekdays, she couldn't help choking in the face of her mother, who was crying into tears.

"The emperor has arrived!"

Emperor Hong Zheng stepped in quickly, saw Empress Jiang and Yan Qihuo hugging each other on the ground, and exclaimed, "What's the matter?" Queen, Xiao Jiu, what's wrong? ”

Yan Rongling and Gu Fanghua exchanged glances, and Gu Fanghua stepped forward and told what had just happened in a simple and clear manner. Then he said: "Uncle Emperor, this must be the minions who clean up and are not satisfied, you have to punish them severely!" ”

Emperor Hong Zheng's face was ugly, he came out of the sea of blood in the harem corpse mountain, and he clearly understood that in this palace, all coincidences would only be deliberate.

"Queen, you don't have to worry about this, I will let Wang Ning interrogate it personally."

"Concubine Xie Emperor."

Emperor Hong Zheng turned to Yan Qi, who had just stood up, and said, "Xiao Jiu, I will find out this matter for you." If you have done a good job today, you should share the blessings and hardships between the brothers. ”

He said to Yan Shaoxun again: "Xiao Wu, you are not bad, you react quickly." If it weren't for your idea, I'm afraid that Xiao Jiu would have more injuries on his body. Xiao Liu, you only know how to take off your clothes for Xiao Jiu, why didn't you think of giving your clothes to Xiao Jiu? ”

Yan Rongling didn't argue, and bowed his head to admit his mistake: "Father, my son is wrong." ”

Only then did Emperor Hong Zheng say: "If you are wrong, you will be punished, you kneel for another hour and think about it." Wang Ning, give Xiao Jiu the sweat and blood BMW that I just got to Xiao Jiu, and Xiao Wu will reward a set of four treasures in the study. ”

"Son, thank your father!"

Dongchun came in at this time to report: "Back to the emperor, the slaves and maids have already made an inventory, and Steward Wang, who was guarding the Taimiao, was strangled to death in the room. His little apprentice Ding Hai was nowhere to be found, and everyone else was outside. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng lowered his face and said to Wang Ning: "Give me an investigation, dig three feet into the ground and find out Ding Hai!" The eunuchs and palace maids who guarded the temple were all brought to the Shen Criminal Division for strict torture, no need to be soft, I want to see who is making waves! ”

"Slaves obey!"

The prince went out in a hurry, and Emperor Hong Zheng said to Queen Jiang: "Empress, I will send you and Xiao Jiu back first." Mingzhu, are you going back first? Still is? ”

Gu Fanghua shook his head and said: "Uncle Emperor, I am here to accompany the sixth cousin, I just caused the trouble by burning paper, and I also want to kneel for a while." ”
