The fire burned out a piece of ashes, and the towering pavilions of Xiahou Mansion were all broken at the waist.

The fire spreads everything that can spread, Xia Zhiqiu's face hidden in the darkness, smiling very happily, she has long said that this will be retributed, but those stupid people, they just don't believe it.

"Save the child, save the child first!" Outside a burning pavilion, Mingru fell to her knees, and she shouted hoarsely at the people who were fighting the fire.

The guards who put out the fire were already in a hurry, and in the face of Mingru, who was roaring loudly, they waved their hands fiercely.

The fire vanished after half an hour, and was burned by the fire, leaving only the gray wreckage of the day.

The entire sky was shrouded in a haze, and the people of Xiahou Mansion looked at their former residence blankly, and the corners of their mouths were full of bitterness.

"Girl, it's time for us to go." The maid pulled the sleeve of Laminru's coat, "The little boy will definitely not be able to find it back now, don't break your heart." ”

Mingru raised her head slowly, her eyes were bloodshot: "You want to take care of my affairs?" ”

The maid was stunned, but she didn't know that the young grandmother in the second room, who was once so weak, was now so sharp when she opened her mouth.

"Let's go." Mingru slowly got up from the ground, she pushed away the few maids in front of her, and stumbled to the compound alone.

Gradually, people gathered in the compound.

Xia Chengdao's eyes rolled around, he didn't know what he was looking for, and his eyebrows would frown lightly from time to time.

This fire burned almost everything, including his countless backyard concubines, who were burned by this fire, and their usual appearance was gone, and it looked like they were out of the refugee camp.

Mingru had been standing beside her, and she saw Xia Huaiqing coming up, Su Ruixin coming up, and Xia Chengdao also coming up, and the eyes in their eyes were more anger than grief.

"Master Hou, this fire has burned our yard to the ground......" Su Ruixin looked around, and her tone was regretful that was difficult to hide.

I don't know why I created this iniquity.

Xia Chengdao has been silent all the time, without speaking, he has no nostalgia for the luxurious mansion, and the only thing that can arouse a little heartache is those girls......

It's time to think about getting another batch back.

Xia Huaiqing's eyebrows tightened, and his eyes kept staying at a certain focal point: "Turn out the things in that rag for me." ”

A few guards hurriedly pulled out a corner of it, which was a batch of white metal, which was a little soft and hot to the touch.

"Master Hou, this is cesium." The guard Rao didn't know much common sense to recognize this thing, cesium, something that burns quickly.

Xia Huaiqing's locked eyebrows still haven't been loosened, this thing has never been allowed to appear in the mansion, how can this kind of stubble come out now.

The current weather is already hot, and if a batch of linen cloth is covered outside, the heat will not be dispersed, and it will only be a matter of time before it ignites.

"Let me find out who put this thing in the house for me." Xia Huaiqing said fiercely, "Don't tell others about things, it's not interesting for this kind of person to report to the government." ”

The guard replied vaguely.

Xia Zhiqiu and Hua Mianmian left in a carriage in a hurry, and the black carriage swept through the dark night, leaving only an afterimage.

Hua Mianmian sat in the carriage, she turned her head and asked, "Sister Xia, who set this fire, this fire is so big, there should be some deep grudge with Xiahou Mansion." ”

"What does it matter who started this fire?" Xia Zhiqiu glanced at her, "As long as you can kill this evil person, it doesn't matter who sets the fire, right?" "Lele Literature

"It's the same......" Hua Mianmian said lightly.

Xia Zhiqiu still doesn't trust herself enough, and some things still won't be told to her very directly, often half hidden and half hidden.

The carriage stopped at Zhangfu, and the two went in together.

Ye Ruyu and Zhang Liang should have been in the cave room by now, and Xiahou Mansion had been completely ruined in this night.

Xia Huaiqing and his party had lost the only place they could live, so they had no choice but to go to the inn in groups to stay.

The burning of Xiahou Mansion, there was also a rumor on the side of the palace.

The emperor listened to the report of the eunuch beside him, and his face was not shocked: "Do you know who did it?" ”

"I don't know yet." The eunuch replied, "But there are only a few people who have an enmity with them, in case they have a relationship with the Nineteen Princes......

"Nineteen, they won't be so reckless." The emperor directly denied his speculation, but he still couldn't let go of it in his heart. "Call them tomorrow and ask."

The next day, Ouyang Huaiyu and Xia Zhixue entered the palace together.

The emperor sat on the main seat, facing the two of them with an indifferent look, and he didn't know where to speak.

"Do you know that Xiahou Mansion was burned?" The Emperor was silent for a long time, but asked slowly.

Ouyang Huaiyu didn't say anything, and asked rhetorically: "Brother can't suspect that we did this thing?" ”

The Emperor nodded.

In this huge capital, there are countless people who have made enemies with Xiahou Mansion, but there are only one or two who really dare to do it.

Ouyang Huaiyu should be regarded as one of the few people.

"Brother Huang guessed wrong this time." A smile tugged at the corner of Ouyang Huaiyu's mouth, "This matter has nothing to do with us, and it can only be said that it is civil strife in Xiahou Mansion." ”

"What do you mean by that?" The Emperor raised his eyes.

"It was Xia Zhiqiu's handwriting, she bought the people in the house and put the cesium in, as soon as it was hot and the temperature was high, the cesium ignited by itself, and the people in Xiahou Mansion did not find out in time, which caused this tragedy."

Ouyang Huaiyu did not hurry to explain the reason to the emperor.

These things are expected, but they are also unexpected.

He and Xia Zhixue thought of thousands of means and methods that Xia Zhiqiu used to retaliate, but only this arson was missing.

After all, arson is too risky, and if you are not careful, you will be caught.

However, Xia Zhixue knew that there were tigers in the mountains, and she preferred to go to Tiger Mountain, so she set herself on fire and set herself on fire.

"It's not surprising." The doubts in the emperor's heart were solved, "Xia Zhixue was already a little resentful of their family, and now they are just burning it, just to reduce the anger in their hearts, but what I didn't expect is that the consequences of arson will be so serious." ”

Xia Zhixue's face turned pale: "Please also ask the emperor to speak bluntly, there is no need to hide anything from the courtiers." ”

"This fire Xiahou Mansion burned cleanly, and there was indeed not even a slag left inside and out, but as soon as this fire was released, many people had no time to escape, and there were three people who were trapped in the house and burned alive."

"The first is a nurse in the house, the second is a sick maid, and the third is still a doll, just Xia Chengdao's child in his second room. I heard that the child's mother cried several times and fainted, this name seems to be called Mingru or something, what a poor person. ”
