The General's Mansion has long been in chaos.

"Who set the fire?!" Baili Guang had black ash on his forehead, obviously just running out of the fire. The ladies and ladies in the backyard all ran out one after another, standing on the road, looking up.

The fire is so big that extinguishing it with water is equivalent to tarring it on fire. Buckets of well water poured into it, flames rushed upwards, white smoke rose from the roofs, and the heat wave made it impossible for the rescue soldiers and horses to break in.

Zong Zheng Zhaoyan arrived in a hurry, completely unexpectedly this scene.

Baili Rouxue shrank into Xia Yunluo's arms, and said in shock: "Mother, I was really scared to death of my daughter, my daughter thought she would be burned to death in the house!" ”

"Don't be afraid, there is a mother." Xia Yunluo patted her on the back and whispered comfort.

Among the people present, several Zong Zhengying were the worst. Because I was too sad these days and couldn't sleep at night, I deliberately drank a pair of soothing tea before going to bed. By the time I woke up, the fire had enveloped the entire front yard.

She cried and rushed to the front yard, trying to move out of Baili Lonely's body, but was stopped by a group of guards.

At this moment, she was kneeling in front of the house, unkempt and lifeless, like a soulless puppet.

By the fifth watch, the fire had gradually been brought under control, but the entire front yard of the General's Mansion was burned! Not to mention the coffin in the middle of the courtyard!

This fire, although it was not arranged by Zong Zheng Zhaoyan, is now in line with his heart.

He was neither happy nor angry, but just stood straight, looking at the dark fire, and his eyes showed some unusual feelings. Hundreds of miles of lonely smoke, if there is an afterlife, I hope we will never see each other!

Then, a frenzied sound of horses' hooves came from far and near.

Zong Zheng Shaoqing turned over and dismounted, before the horse could stand firmly, he had already flown to Zong Zheng Zhaoyan, grabbed his clothes, and looked at him coldly: "Seventh brother, did you burn her body?!" Isn't it?! ”

Zong Zheng Zhaoyan's brown eyes were dark, "Ninth brother, you first figure out the situation!" This king has just arrived! ”

"Yes! His Royal Highness the Ninth was angry. The old man testified that this matter had nothing to do with the crown prince. Bai Liguang glanced back at the dark ruins, and sighed: "Arson in the middle of the night, and only burn the general's mansion, must have been committed by the enemy." ”

"Good! Good means! Zong Zheng Shaoqing laughed wildly, and his cold eyes shot so cold that Zong Zheng Zhaoyan didn't dare to look at him.

At this time, Baili Rouxue's gentle and beautiful voice sounded like a butterfly's wings: "Look, everyone, what is that shining bead at the door of the front yard?" ”

"Maybe it was left by the arsonist." Zong Zheng Zhaoyan broke free from the shackles of Zong Zheng Shaoqing, pointed not far away, and instructed his subordinates behind him: "Blood Nightmare, you go and investigate the situation." ”

After that, the blood nightmare came back with the blue bead and handed it to Zong Zheng Zhaoyan: "Your Highness, this was found outside the fire, and it looks familiar." ”

As soon as Xia Yunluo saw the bead, he understood something in his heart. Baili Rouxue gave a look, and the mother and daughter immediately looked at each other and smiled.

Xia Yunluo walked in front of Zongzheng Zhaoyan and Zongzheng Shaoqing, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness the Seventh and Your Highnesses the Nine, the courtiers once collected a pair of jade earrings of the queen of the previous dynasty, and the beads were hung on the earrings. As early as five years ago, the courtiers gave the pair of jade earrings to the five ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Today, the daughter of the fifth lady, Shangguan Jingwan, came to the house, and the courtiers saw that she was wearing it. According to the courtiers, she should have fallen. ”
