"General Cang! Lord Chen! Oh no! A little guy stumbled over, "Chaoyang Pavilion!" Chaoyang Pavilion is on fire! ”

"Oops, the Nine Emperors are still there!" Governor Chen said anxiously.

The Nine Emperors are the most favored sons of the Holy Lords today, and if something happens to him, everyone will lose their heads. Cang Xuelan didn't have time to think about it, he performed light skills, jumped onto the eaves, and saw the black smoke from a distance.

"Lord Chen, it's important to save people, I'll go first." After Cang Xuelan finished speaking, she flew up the wall and rushed towards the fire.

In front of Chaoyang Pavilion, Cang Xuelan turned over and landed on the ground lightly, there was already a mess here, many people carried buckets in and out, but the fire only increased, in the thick smoke, Cang Xuelan smelled a peculiar smell, this smell was fleeting.

"General Cang!" Master Chang stumbled and grabbed Cang Xuelan's arm, his bundle crown was knocked off in a panic, looking extremely embarrassed, he trembled and pointed at Chaoyang Pavilion, "Nine Emperor Princes, he!" Nine Emperor Princes him! ”

Cang Xuelan didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and rushed into Chaoyang Pavilion. Generally, large-scale taverns are three floors, the first floor receives ordinary guests, the second floor is a little grade, and sometimes a few folk artists will be invited to help the fun, and the third floor is basically a private room, which is specially contracted to big people with status and status, and the same is true for Chaoyang Pavilion.

With Lord Qi's character, there is a good chance that he will set the private room on the third floor.

Cang Xuelan took off, stepped on the railing of the stairs, and with this strength, jumped up a few feet high, and arrived on the third floor in a blink of an eye, before he had time to shout loudly to the Nine Emperors, he saw a figure jumping down from the other side of the third floor, and landed steadily on the first floor, without making a sound at all, he flicked his sleeves, and then made a panicked look, crying and running out of Chaoyang Pavilion, full of energy, it seemed that he had not been smoked at all.

Cang Xuelan's cry was stuck in her throat.

Isn't this person the Nine Emperors of the Straw Bag?

Cang Xuelan landed on the third floor, but the smell became stronger and stronger, he looked at the Chaoyang Pavilion that was gradually swallowed by the tongue of fire, and when he reached the third floor, the smell became more and more obvious.

The smoke choked, Cang Xuelan used the turtle breath method to slow down his breathing, and he kicked open a door with one foot along with the smell.

This is a simple lounge, it should be used for the little guys to rest, this room burns the hardest, as soon as he kicks the door open, the strong fishy smell hits his face, he takes two steps back, and breaks out of the window.

Before Cang Xuelan could stand firmly, Lord Qi pounced on him and cried at him, "General Cang! The lower officials thought you couldn't get out. ”

Cang Xuelan quietly avoided Master Qi and said with a smile: "Where is there a reason to save people, but put yourself in it." ”

"As soon as you entered, the Nine Emperor Princes ran out, and he said that he didn't see you, but he scared me to death."

Cang Xuelan smiled, he raised his eyebrows and looked, the Nine Emperor Princes in the crowd stood quietly, raised his eyes and glanced at him, calmly not like a person who had just escaped death.

This is not the look that a straw bag should have.

"It's my fault, I fled for my life, and I didn't see General Cang." The Nine Emperor Princes smiled at him.

"It's okay, I saw His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes." Cang Xuelan replied with a fake smile.

The Nine Emperors' expressions remained unchanged, but they avoided Cang Xuelan's eyes, and boarded their carriage under the hugs of the servants.

Cang Xuelan pulled Lord Qi and asked, "Lord Qi, please tell me the details of the matter." ”

Lord Qi wiped his face with his sleeve, but the soot on it was blackened, "I booked a private room on the third floor with the Nine Emperor Princes, this Chaoyang Pavilion is the best restaurant in Changzhou City, and the dishes are all local, and the Nine Emperor Princes have eaten to their heart's content, so I want to ask for another pot of wine, I will say that the plum wine in Changzhou City is a must, which is to bury a whole winter of ...... under the plum blossom tree and in the snow

"Lord Qi, let's get to the point."

"Yes, yes," Lord Qi hurriedly said: "So, I went to get the wine, and as soon as I went down to the second floor, I heard someone shouting to take away the water, and I immediately ran to the third floor, trying to escort the Nine Emperor Princes out, but the people in the entire restaurant were fleeing for their lives, and I was rushed out by the crowd, and I was at a loss, so you came." ”

Cang Xuelan frowned, "Since it is the No. 1 restaurant in Changzhou, isn't there even a small house in the private room?" ”

"This is their characteristic, in the private room, there are no small servants, except for serving food, these little servants are generally guarding the door. If the guest needs it, he rings the bell on the table, and the little man at the door hears the sound and comes in. I just knocked for a long time, and no one came, so I thought about going out to have a look, but found that there was no one outside the door, so I went downstairs to check. ”

"Did you send someone back to the government for help?"

"It's not time yet."

This is an expected answer, this fire was deliberately set by someone, in order to transfer his tiger out of the mountain, and the little guy who came to report the news was also pretending to be nine times out of ten.

No matter what the purpose of this group of people is, now that it has been reached, thinking of this, Cang Xuelan is not in a hurry.

When the little guy reported the fire, he didn't think that this was a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, but the safety of the Nine Emperor Princes was indeed the top priority, besides, if he didn't leave, how could he know what the group wanted to do?

And Governor Chen, when the little guy came to report the fire in Chaoyang Pavilion, his first reaction was that the Nine Emperor Princes were in danger, but how did he know that the Nine Emperor Princes were dining in Chaoyang Pavilion?

The fire in Chaoyang Pavilion is lit with leopard fat, this kind of thing has a strong fishy smell, when it is just lit, it is like a candle, only a small pinch of fire, half a cup of tea, the fire will become bigger. When the fire started, Lord Qi was not there, it was too much of a coincidence.

Plus a Nine Emperor Princes who can jump down from the third floor.

This Changzhou city is really getting more and more interesting.

"Lord Qi," Cang Xuelan shouted, "I'll escort the Nine Emperor Princes back to the official mansion first, and by the way, see if Governor Chen is okay, Miss Wen, please go there in person to see if there is any change." ”

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Cang Xuelan walked to the carriage of the Nine Emperor Princes and made a gesture, "Your Highness, the lower official will escort you back to the official mansion." ”

The Nine Emperor Princes lifted the curtain, "I'm going back to my own courtyard first." ”

"Your Royal Highness, this fire is clearly aimed at you, although the other courtyard is comfortable, but it is not safe, it is safer to go to the official mansion, you can repair it at Lord Qi first, and then you will go back to the other courtyard after the official arranges it."

The Nine Emperors wanted to say something more, but the chamberlain on the side hurriedly persuaded: "Your Highness, your safety is important."

The Nine Emperors gave up.

The chamberlain bowed to Cang Xuelan and smiled flatteringly: "Then there is General Lao." ”

Cang Xuelan nodded, grabbed the reins of the horse, and drove to the government in person.

"Didn't General Cang go to check on Governor Chen's situation? There's no rush at all. The Nine Emperor Princes said coolly in the carriage.

"Don't worry," Cang Xuelan smiled slightly, "I heard that His Royal Highness is a horse lover, I don't know how this riding and archery kung fu is?" ”

The Nine Emperors laughed twice, "General." ”

The chamberlain continued: "Our Highness is weak in bones, and in terms of practice, His Majesty doesn't force him too much. ”

"Does Your Highness know which of the many martial arts is the most difficult to practice?"

"Which?"

"Light Gong," Cang Xuelan pointed out, "Light Gong pays the most attention to internal breath, and if you have bad talent, even if you practice yourself to death, it will be difficult to make any progress, not to mention anything else, although the third or fourth floor is not high, but if you want to sweep down from above, and do not make a sound, you are not a master, it is impossible to do it." ”

The chamberlain didn't know why, so he could only follow Cang Xuelan's words and say: "This must be a piece of cake for General Cang." ”

In the carriage, the Nine Emperors leaned against the soft collapse of the golden thread unicorn pattern, and he clenched his fists, thinking about countermeasures.

After a long time of chaos, Lord Qi returned to the official mansion, Cang Xuelan and Governor Chen sat on both sides, and the Nine Emperor Princes sat on the main seat, everyone's expressions did not look very good.

After Lord Qi looked around, he asked General Cang, "General, is this ......?"

Governor Chen sighed, his face ashamed, "It's because the subordinate officials are not supervising effectively, and the evidence has been stolen." ”

"What evidence?"

"A ticket from Chang'an Ticket Bank."

Master Qi gasped, "Chang'an Ticket Village? Could it be that Lord Wen deposited the account book in the Chang'an ticket bank? ”

"Nine times out of ten, yes." Governor Chen was heartbroken, "This trick to divert the tiger from the mountain is really insidious. ”

The insidious thing is not how profound this plan is, but it is something they can't avoid, the Nine Emperors are in trouble, no matter what, they have to save people first.

The Nine Emperor Princes slapped the table and said angrily: "This group of thieves is really bold, do they know who His Highness is!?" Outrageous! ”

"How can it be!" Cang Xuelan also patted the table, "Fortunately, someone came to report that Chaoyang Pavilion was on fire, otherwise what would be done about the safety of the Nine Emperor Princes?" ”

"Who's going to report the fire?" Master Qi asked.

"It's a little guy in the adult's house." Cang Xuelan pointed to the little maid at the door.

"Oh?" Lord Qi was pleased: "Clever enough, there are many rewards." ”

The little servant was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down under the hall and said, "Thank you for the reward." ”

"Huh?" Master Qi said curiously: "You don't seem to have gone to Chaoyang Pavilion, how do you know that there is a fire there?" ”

"Chaoyang Pavilion watched from a distance, the smoke was billowing out, isn't this just a fire, the villain originally thought that the fire was a big deal, and it should be reported, who would like to hear Lord Chen say that the Nine Emperors are also there, so he made a mistake and made a meritorious service."

Master Qi smiled: "It's really clever. ”

"It's all adults who teach well on weekdays." The little guy patted the whisker and walked the road.

Governor Chen stroked his beard, "Where are you on duty today?" ”

"The villain is guarding the West Corner Gate."

"Oh?" Governor Chen frowned, "I also know the west corner gate of the yamen, it is a small road crossing, there are high walls on both sides, and this Chaoyang Pavilion is in the north of the official mansion, and the buildings surrounded by it are higher than it, counting the time, when you came to report, the smoke should not have risen very high, even General Cang, you need to jump on the roof to see, how did you see the billowing smoke at that time?" ”

Cang Xuelan pretended to think and nodded, "Yes, how did you see it?" ”

"This ......"

Lord Qi snorted coldly and asked, "Then how did Lord Chen know that the Nine Emperor Princes were dining in Chaoyang Pavilion?" When someone came to report the fire, you blurted out that the Nine Emperors were in danger, as if you had set up a special situation to lure General Cang away. ”

Cang Xuelan turned her head again and asked, "Yes, how do you know that the Nine Emperor Princes are in Chaoyang Pavilion?" I don't know. ”

Governor Chen stood up abruptly and pointed at Lord Qi: "Didn't you send someone to tell me about the Nine Emperors eating in Chaoyang Pavilion?" He also asked me if I wanted to have a meal together. General Cang, your subordinate has been with me all day today, you can ask him and see if anyone has come to pass the word! ”

Cang Xuelan asked her subordinates, "Who is the messenger, do you remember?" ”

The subordinate pointed to the little servant kneeling under the hall and said, "If you return to the general, this is the person." ”

"Why are you again?" Cang Xuelan raised her eyebrows.

"Nonsense! I didn't send anyone to ask you at all, when I went out, I happened to meet General Cang, and told him about going to dinner, General Cang rejected me at that time, saying that I wanted to discuss important matters with you, so why should I do this and send someone to ask you! ”

"You just said that I deliberately lured General Cang away, isn't this the game you set up? Draw the suspicion to my head, and in the next sentence, will it be concluded that I am the murderer of Lord Wen and his wife? ”

Qi Da trembled with anger, and he pointed at the little guy and said, "You say! Did I ask you to go to Master Chen! ”

"I didn't ...... There is no ......"

Governor Chen snorted coldly: "Then I and this military brother, are we seeing a dummy?" ”

"That'...... Yes? ”

"Fart! When did I let you go! You're a guy who eats inside and out! ”

The little guy was caught in the middle, miserable, he looked at Lord Qi and said timidly: "My lord, then what should I say...... Still no......"

Lord Qi almost turned his back on him, and the eyes of several people fell on him, making him feel like a man.

"Speaking of which," the Nine Emperor Princes said, holding his chin, "when there was a fire, I was trapped on it, but you were gone, and it didn't take long for it to catch fire." ”

"Your Highness, do you want to say that the lower official set fire!?" Lord Qi burst into flames, "This is a big crime of stealing the house and killing the head!" Your Highness has any proof!? ”

The Nine Emperors fell back: "No, His Highness just talks casually." ”

"Okay, okay," Master Qi took two steps forward and grabbed Cang Xuelan's wrist, "Since several of them think I'm a murderer, then tie me up now and go to see the saint!" Walk! ”

"Your Excellency, your Excellency, calm down first." At this time, Cang Xuelan opened her mouth to play a round.

"You don't have to make such a move, don't you just pay attention and know that we have no evidence," Governor Chen flicked his sleeves, "Since you think that the theft of the bill is related to this official, then this official is also willing to shackle himself and go with you to see the saint!" ”

"General Cang, if you don't worry about me, you can send someone to guard me strictly, I will stay in the room for a few days, not a single step, if something happens like this, then it has nothing to do with this official!" Lord Qi said as he glanced at Governor Chen.

Governor Chen immediately said, "You can also send troops to watch me!" ”

When the matter came to this point, Cang Xuelan took the opportunity to take it, "Since the two adults said so, then the subordinate immediately ordered troops to protect the safety of the two adults, so as to clear the charge of the two adults." ”

Lord Qi and Governor Chen glanced at each other, and each threw away his sleeves.

Only then did the Nine Emperor Princes stand up, clasp their hands to their chests and say, "These two are in their forties, and they quarrel like two children." ”

"What does Your Highness think about this?"

The Nine Emperor Princes spread their hands, "The two of them spoke too fast, and when they were halfway through the quarrel, I was stunned by them, and I didn't listen much to them later." ”

Cang Xuelan smiled but did not speak.

This Rashomon is really exciting.

fanned the flames for a long time, and the results obtained were quite satisfactory.

Lord Qi and Governor Chen, Cang Xuelan didn't believe it, but now they can monitor the two of them openly, and they can just let Cang Xuelan make a free hand to test the bottom of the Nine Emperors.
