Chapter 219: Appearance
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Changle saluted and slowly recalled: "The courtiers suddenly woke up on the third watch, because the affairs of the homeless people were a little upset, so they came out to shop, and suddenly wanted to see if Tianxue was asleep halfway, if there was no courtiers who wanted to talk to her for a while, so they turned their heads and walked here, but when they were about to arrive at the courtyard, they suddenly found that there were a few rays of red light inside, and the courtiers felt bad at the time, and they had already found that there was a fire when they rushed over, and the fire was not small. The courtiers called their men to put out the fire, but the door of the house had been burned and it was impossible to enter at all. ”
"When you found out about the fire, were there any suspicious people around?" Nangong Tian asked again.
"At that time, the courtiers thought that Tianxue was trapped in the fire, and they were in a hurry to call someone to put out the fire, and they didn't care if there were any people around, why, do you suspect that someone deliberately set the fire?" Zhao Changle asked in shock.
"It's just a suspicion at the moment, and we have to find tangible evidence to determine whether our guess is true, but the strangeness of this fire, coupled with your special identity, is likely to be deliberately set on fire by homeless people." Nangong Tian frowned and replied.
Zhao Changle was furious when he heard this: "Tianxue is the mother of the snow concubine, and I, Zhao Changle, am also the daughter of the general, the homeless people are so bold, they dare to blatantly set fires?" Really don't want to die? ”
"Hmph, for the sake of profit, they can't do anything, and they have made trouble at the gate of the palace."
"Alright. Now you go back to where you came and continue, don't show your stuffing, it will be difficult to clean up. Jiang Xinyu and Nangong Tian wore a black cloak when they went out, and when they were talking to Shaoqing and Zhao Changle, Nangong Tian used Xuan Li to isolate them, unless they were people whose skills were much higher than Nangong Tian, they could hear these voices, and the person who was originally fighting the fire couldn't know who these two black-clothed people were and what they said to them.
"Yes." The two hurriedly wiped their tears and walked back. I noticed that there were not many people here, and I thought there was still Concubine Xue in the room, so the guards didn't have the energy to pay attention to these at all.
"Hurry up. Concubine Xue is still inside. Zhao Changle's anxious voice remembered again, but she was no longer worried. But when I turned my eyes, the two people who were originally in the corner were no longer there.
Nangong Tian saw Jiang Xinyu handling things unhurriedly, nodded appreciatively, and said: "There is still something to deal with in the palace, I have to go back, I can't let people find out that I am out of the palace, you have to be more careful alone, in case something happens, let the secret guard go and bring me news, and I will help you solve it." ”
Jiang Xinyu nodded, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, you have to be careful in everything, although King Rong is seriously injured in bed and can't do anything, there are still other people in Beijing who are watching your every move and plotting against you." ”
Seeing that Jiang Xinyu showed concern for him, Nangong Tian was faintly happy, but his face did not show too much, he raised his hand and gently brushed the dust off Jiang Xinyu's shoulder, Jiang Xinyu's figure moved slightly, but he did not dodge.
Just when the atmosphere between the two was a little ambiguous, Nangong Tian's eyes suddenly froze, looking in one direction, Jiang Xinyu keenly noticed Nangong Tian's aura that had become fierce in an instant, and looked up suspiciously to follow Nangong Tian's gaze, and then his face changed.
The two of them were now standing on the city wall, looking down on the courtyard, and the view was excellent. Now Jiang Xinyu can clearly see that there are three or four people in the southwest corner, sneakily looking in the direction of the courtyard where the fire started, looking at the outcasts who are obviously dressed as homeless people!
"Sure enough, it's them." Jiang Xinyu bit her lower lip, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart. She didn't think of using violence and coercion to solve the problem at first, even if the people in the camp didn't lie to her, and they didn't give her a good look on weekdays, but she always thought that the same people living at the feet of the Son of Heaven were kind in their hearts, but they became hysterical and became a mob because of the oppression of life, but she didn't expect someone to have such a vicious mind!
Seeing that Jiang Xinyu's face was ugly, Nangong Tian sighed, thinking that Jiang Xinyu was angry because of the actions of the homeless people. patted her on the shoulder: "You still have too little experience." I know you want to believe that they are all good people, that you don't want to hurt them, and that you want to solve the problem in the gentlest way. But you have also seen it, it's not that we are not soft-hearted, but these people have done things recklessly, they know that you are a snow concubine, and they dare to set fire to the house, don't they just want to kill you? Do you think a kind person would do such a hurtful thing? Their hearts have long been corroded, and there is not much left of that small kindness, and they don't deserve your softheart! ”
"No," Jiang Xinyu bit her lip. Under Nangong Tian's gaze, Jiang Xinyu raised his head and met Nangong Tian's complicated gaze, "They are really no longer suitable for me to be soft-hearted, I have given them so much time and they haven't come to their senses yet, and they are really dazzled by interests." Hmph"
Nangong Tian was silent for a long time, looking at Jiang Xinyu's rare calm and calm expression, and sighed faintly, "En." It's good that you can know this truth, the world is so big, just say the clouds, but a small place can have so many rights and wrongs, and blindly the kindness of women will only make these people more arrogant. ”
"The concubine knows." Jiang Xinyu turned around and looked at the fire, which seemed to have buried her gentleness and womanly kindness for this kind of thing in her life.
Sure enough, the impact of the environment on people is so great, there is no tension on the edge of life and death that she used to have, and there is no feeling of bullets and bullets, she still relents. But from now on she won't. I will no longer waste my conscience on such meaningless things.
"You should think about today's affairs. You must have an idea of who it is. ”
Nangong Tian nodded reservedly again, turned around and left quietly, without alarming anyone.
Seeing that Zhao Changle and Shaoqing were hurriedly putting out the fire, Jiang Xinyu looked around, and the attendants were hurriedly carrying water to extinguish the fire, the fire had been reduced a lot, and it seemed that it would not spread anymore. Jiang Xinyu secretly used her mysterious power, slightly cast a trick, and entered the room without anyone noticing.
There was a lot of smoke in the house, which was very choking, but fortunately, Jiang Xinyu had been prepared, and she had already closed her breath before coming in, and she was not affected much at this time, but her eyes were slightly stinging, and she couldn't stop crying.
She looked around, grabbed some of the ashes from the wood burnt with her head, smeared them on her clean dress, rubbed them on her face a few more times, and then collapsed very close to the door, and struck the wall with her strength, making a loud noise.
"Quick! There are people there! The guards who were fighting the fire heard the sound, and by this time the fire had been prevented from spreading, the fire was under control to a certain extent, and the guards were not as busy as they were at the beginning. Two or three guards who were close hurriedly poured a few buckets of water on their bodies, rushed over in a wet breath, kicked the door open with their feet, and sure enough, they saw Jiang Xinyu lying on the ground.
"Snow Concubine Niangniang!" The guard who came first exclaimed, and then shouted outside, "Come on! I found Xue Fei Niangniang, she fainted! ”
The guards outside the door heard the shouting and hurriedly hugged them, and they carefully moved out Jiang Xinyu, who looked embarrassed, at this time, Shaoqing and Zhao Changle also heard the shouting, and they had been waiting anxiously in place.
After seeing Jiang Xinyu being sent out, Zhao Changle rushed over to check Jiang Xinyu's injuries, and found that she just looked embarrassed, and her exposed skin was not very badly burned, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted: "Quick, carry Concubine Xue to my room!" ”
Several guards responded, and lightly sent Jiang Xinyu to Zhao Changle's room, and then retreated.
"Shaoqing, you take care of Xinyu here, I'll go to the doctor to treat her. Although it looks like it's just a little skin injury, it's not sure that there will be an invisible internal injury. Zhao Changle told Shaoqing, although he knew that there would be no problem, he was still very worried. The damage on this body is real, not the cost, how can a woman be so willing to attack herself. The voice was a little loud, and the breathing was said for others to hear.
"Yes! Miss Zhao, you go to the doctor, Niangniang has me to guard, and I will never let anyone get close to her. Although Shaoqing was shocked, he still answered Zhao Changle firmly.
Zhao Changle nodded reassuringly, and glanced at Jiang Xinyu who was lying on the bed worriedly, and then walked out of the door to prepare to ask for a doctor.
"Niangniang, it's all my fault, I shouldn't go to bed early, but I should guard you, so that I can save you when the fire breaks out, unlike just now, I can only watch, there is no way at all. Woo......" Shaoqing sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Jiang Xinyu who was unconscious, the more she thought about it, the more sad she became, the more she blamed herself, and she couldn't help crying in a low voice. This worry is not a fraud, but Shaoqing is also responsible for this accident. So now she thinks that Jiang Xinyu really fainted. Although the meeting just now reassured her heart a little, she was still worried.
Jiang Xinyu, who pretended to faint, lay on the bed and listened to Shaoqing's crying, feeling slightly sorry in her heart, Shaoqing is an honest child, this time something so big, she doesn't know how long she will feel guilty, but unfortunately she has to lie down now and wait for the arrival of the doctor and others. However, Shaoqing's crying also made her uncomfortable, if she didn't stop this voice. Otherwise, you will really get hurt. Suffer internal injuries!
Thinking like this, Jiang Xinyu felt that she could wake up, otherwise Shaoqing would definitely keep crying.
"Hmm......" Jiang Xinyu muttered, and Shaoqing really pounced, "Niangniang, are you awake?" ”
