The fire burned terribly.

But it gets up fast and falls fast.

When the county lieutenant of Luoyang County ran to the scene with his hat crooked, the fire had already been extinguished.

The county lieutenant walked around the burning courtyard with suspicion on his face: "In just a few moments, it will burn?" You can see the fire all over the capital. But in just such a short time, he was saved, and only two or three people were injured? How do I feel like I'm dreaming? ”

Qinghe, who injured an arm, weakly came forward to explain: "It's a coincidence." There was a shop in our palace that was about to be converted into a teahouse, and I was asked to come and see the work, but the masons did not come home and waited for me to come.

"There is a fire over there, so naturally everyone is going to help. We have all the sand, buckets, and so on, so we can save it? ”

The county lieutenant naturally recognized Qinghe, and hurriedly laughed: "The little brother is not waiting by the prince's side, why did he come here in the middle of the night?" ”

"Today, the prince and his friends are drinking in Maoji, and I didn't pay attention to what I said during the banquet, which made the prince unhappy. Our family has always been generous, and the prince was reluctant to beat me, so he asked me to run an errand, toss me, and punished me. ”

Qinghe said, yawned, rubbed his eyes and asked, "I'm injured, tired and sleepy, maybe go back to sleep?" ”

The meaning of the Lianwang Mansion, this is to make a conclusion of "accidental fire"?

The county lieutenant understood with a twist of his brain, and nodded: "Yes, yes!" Little brother, this is righteousness and bravery! Looking back at the proprietor of this shop, it should be good to thank the little brother! ”

"It's rare for them to stutter! I'm just afraid of burning down my shop. Qinghe waved his hand impatiently, and then turned back to the group of people who helped put out the fire, "There are people left behind by each family to help." There are also a few brothers who came with me from Maoji, oh, those are our masons. ”

The county lieutenant turned his eyes, looked around the people who were dressed in ordinary clothes, trembled slightly, pretended not to know, and arched his hand with a smile: "It's hard work." Just a few more questions to ask......"

"Is it because of the fire in the shop? That's not to ask us. The shop should be from the Chu family. Look back and see, the son of the Chu Shangshu family is still fainting there! You ask their families, and it's clearest. ”

Qinghe's words scared the county lieutenant weak.

The county lieutenant hurriedly confessed, pulled out his legs and ran to the shop.

Here, Qinghe took the people away, and where the servants dared to stop them, they swaggered together to Mao Ji.

Here, Chu Peilan woke up slowly, looked at the scorched black eyes, and seemed to cry and smile on her face: "Burned? All burned? ”

The confidant's chief hurriedly pretended to cry: "Childe, it's the first time you've done business with someone, why haven't you opened yet, so you made such a fuss?" I have long advised you that you have no foreign wealth in your eight characters, don't bother with this thought.

"Look at you! You are injured like this, Mrs. Lang Jun should not be distressed to death? If the little ones are not taken care of, I'm afraid they won't survive! ”

The county lieutenant cautiously leaned over and asked with a smile, "Where is Gongzi Chu's injury?" The villain should hurry up and ask the doctor to come, right? ”

The chief looked at him, thought for a while, and asked, "Luoyang County Lieutenant?" Our son doesn't need quack doctors from outside. What's more, I was just stunned by the smoke and fire. I'm going to take my son home. Can you help us see if our carriage is in the way outside? ”

The county lieutenant hurriedly sent someone out to see, and he cautiously asked the chief follower: "Gongzi Chu was actually stunned by the fireworks, could it be that when the fire started, Gongzi was actually in the warehouse?" It's too dangerous. ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" Chang Sui was full of chagrin, "This shop was opened by my son-in-law and the Yu family." The rest of the family shipped, and we shipped out of the shop, half of each person.

"This morning, the Yu family transported all the goods, and the warehouse here has been stored. It was said that our son-in-law was not available today, but the Yu family had to ask the son-in-law to check the goods and the list today. Childe had no choice but to come at night.

"But who knows, the guy who took the turn to guard the shop today was so careless, and fell asleep with the oil in the charcoal basin. Our son's inventory is naturally from the last one. But when it was discovered that something was wrong outside, the fire had sealed the courtyard gate. ”

Chang Sui said, his face full of palpitations, "Our son was kind, and he even rescued the sleeping guy from the fire." But everyone was trapped in the yard and couldn't get out.

"-Hey, Lord County Lieutenant, you say, could this be someone who wants to harm our son? Why do I think this fire is burning out too badly? ”

"Less nonsense!" Chu Peilan's long legs straightened, gently kicked his own leg, raised his face to look at the county lieutenant, and sighed: "I don't have a life to do business." And you deserve it.

"It's just an accidental fire, don't shout that the whole capital knows about it. If my father is reprimanded by His Majesty, then I should suffer. ”

The county lieutenant smiled all over his face: "Why don't you say that Gongzi Chu is a filial son!" I was hurt, but I was still worried about the old man not to be angry. Since it was an accident, then the scene was cleaned up, and the son left someone to cooperate with our Luoyang County, and the side didn't have to worry about it. Shall we go back and rest? ”

Chu Peilan snorted, staggered to his feet with the support of his subordinates, frowned and rubbed his temples, looked down at his clothes, and sighed: "The robe that my mother made for me is over." I can't hide it. ”

His face showed some anger, and he pointed at the chief and shouted: "It's all you who caused trouble!" Why do you have to let me come to the inventory tonight? How can the little big man of the Yu family get you? He also pushed me to partner with him in business, and forced me to do everything according to his ideas!

"His house is so big and there are so many people, why can't these things be placed in his house? You have to get it to the shop! These fur materials are the most likely to ignite. Sure enough, it's all burned, I'm afraid he will have to rely on me! ”

"No, no, no! Childe, don't think so! The agreement between the two joint shares is clearly written, and the Yu family can't rely on you! The small ones also confiscated the benefits of the Yu family's little elders. Isn't it all looking at - whose face is it? ”

Chang Sui's face was full of tangling, and the voice became smaller and smaller.

Chu Peilan snorted and rolled her eyes: "You have been here from beginning to end, just staying, if there is anything in Luoyang County, you can also answer clearly." I've cleaned up here, and I'll go home and get back to me! ”

The county lieutenant of Luoyang breathed a sigh of relief, and sent Chu Peilan out with a smile.

But as soon as Chu Peilan left, the long-standing groveling immediately became arrogant: "It's an accidental fire." Our son-in-law doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, so you can watch and do it with the county lieutenant. I'm just waiting in the soft incense building in the back street, and you have someone to go there and tell me about something. ”

And then he walked away.

The people of Luoyang County were dumbfounded, looked at his back, and whispered to the county lieutenant: "I have also seen a lot of the seven-grade officials of this powerful family, and this one is the first to be arrogant!" ”

The county lieutenant of Luoyang smiled disapprovingly: "It's okay if he's gone." Otherwise, we wouldn't dare to look through it. ”

As he was talking, a messenger came to the county lieutenant with a strange face, and muttered something in his ear.

The county lieutenant nodded casually, waved his hand to let the others disperse, turned around and walked in quickly, and shouted in a low voice: "Remember, you can't talk to anyone!" Otherwise, you and my whole family's heads won't be able to be saved! ”
