Chapter 399: Is Your Highness Scared? (Two more in one to ask for a monthly pass)

The screams were piercing like sharp blades.

Wang Gouzi was putting out the fire, and when he saw Li Shao's sudden reaction, he was so frightened that he was scared.

As soon as he stopped, the fire that had been extinguished had the potential to fight back again, and it was not until the flames burned his fingers that he woke up in pain.

"Your Highness? Your Highness!" Wang Gouzi said loudly.

He wanted to chase out to see Li Shao, but he couldn't ignore the burning curtain, so he could only shout while saving him.

It was not enough to shout Li Shao, he shouted "County Lord" again.

The county lord also seemed to be shocked by this unexpected situation, Mu Ran stood in place, and was called back to his senses by him, but his hands trembled, and he almost sent away the oil lamp he was holding.

Seeing that the county lord was in a panic and remedied one after another, and finally stabilized the lamp, Wang Gouzi breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

On the other side, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and it should be Fu Guogong and others who heard the movement.

"What's going on?" Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first.

When Xu Jian entered the west for a while, his eyes fell on the fire, and Wang Gouzi saw a trace of astonishment in his eyes.

Xu Bai didn't say a word, untied the soaked coat and slapped it on the curtain.

With the help of someone, the ignition was quickly brought under control, and although it was not completely extinguished, it was difficult to become a climate.

Xu Jian asked Lin Yunyan with concern, "What's the matter? What about Your Highness?"

Lin Yunyan's lips curled, with a frightened look, and she reached out and pointed out.

Seeing that she was so frightened that she couldn't say a complete sentence, Wang Gouzi hurriedly said, "Just checked the roof, the little one accidentally knocked over the oil lamp and burned the curtain, and His Highness suddenly screamed and ran out."

"Don't be afraid," Xu Jian took Lin Yunyan's shoulders and took the person outside, "Let's go out and have a look together, I'll accompany you, it's okay."

Lin Yunyan was silent, and was half-helped and half-led outside by Xu Jian.

When her back to Wang Gouzi and the other party couldn't see her face, Lin Yunyan suppressed her voice and said to Xu Jian: "He was scared, and his reaction was very violent, I saw him like that, I should have remembered something."

Xu Jian tightened the fingers on Lin Yunyan's shoulder, and used a little force to show that he knew.

They came here just to give Li Shao a try.

Although Qianfu is uninhabited, and there is a living pond to draw water, they can't make a big fire after thinking about it.

After all, the weather is like this, it has been raining a lot lately, the house is damp, and the rain is so heavy at this time that nothing can be burned without combustion.

And once the combustibles are used, the yamen will not make sense when they check it.

Therefore, in tonight's plan, fire is indispensable, but it is a little.

For such a little bit of fire to achieve results, Lin Yunyan pondered the details.

This afternoon, taking advantage of the heavy rain and dark enough, Lin Yunyan specially closed the door and closed the window, only took an oil lamp, and changed various angles, so that Mama Ma could observe which angle she was more like her mother.

Mama Ma has done things in Cining Palace, and she knows Shen Yun well, but after all, many years have passed, and she racked her brains to recall.

Lin Yunyan held an oil lamp to look at her face, moving far and near, left and right, and Mama Ma looked around different positions in front of her.

"I'm still younger."

"You and Madame Bo were much older when they died, and you may have to put some powder on your face."

"Wait, this angle is good, it looks old, the age is blurred, and if you look at it roughly, you will really admit that you are mistaken."

"Slaves and maids can't remember carefully, and Your Highness can't remember it clearly."

"When the time comes, he eats wine, and the surroundings are dark, and it is easy to look away, and his heart is anxious, and he is more and more brought in by the atmosphere, which is called 'Take advantage of his illness and kill him!'" 」

"If you don't eat or drink in broad daylight, there will be loopholes in how you pretend."

"When the time comes, you will do this, and this seat, according to this half, will be effective if you stand in front of him."

After finalizing, Lin Yunyan kept it firmly in mind.

Sure enough, as Mama Ma said, the fire burned the curtain, and Li Shao looked at the wrong eye in a panic, so that he suddenly screamed.

As soon as the two of them came out of the house, they saw them in the yard

lost his soul and fell into despair.

Standing under the fallen tree, he was soaking wet, and the rain smeared his face, and his whole body was like a statue flying like a ghost.

Let Lin Yunyan stand under the porch, Xu Jian picked up the umbrella by the door and called Li Shao.

"Your Highness," Xu Jian said, "You can't be so rainy, the fire inside is almost extinguished, don't you?"

Li Shao looked up at Xu Jian when he heard the sound, his eyes were dilated, and it could be seen that he was still confused.

He opened his mouth, trying to say something, but he didn't say it.

There was a rush of footsteps, scattered and scattered, and there seemed to be a lot of people.

Soon, someone came to show up, it was Shan Shen and the officials of Shuntianfu.

As soon as the two sides looked at each other, Master Shan looked at the embarrassed Li Shao and the serious Xu Jian, and instinctively saluted first.

Li Shao didn't react much.

Xu Jian said politely: "It's hard work."

Shan Shen pursed his lips, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he tried to hang himself, but he didn't want to be perfunctory, but he was embarrassed to the point that he was embarrassed, but fortunately, he was okay in terms of etiquette: "It's not hard, it's not hard......

It's not hard, indeed.

It's not hard work at all!

When he heard that the Qianfu was smoking, he was really dumbfounded; When he rushed outside, he knew that His Royal Highness, the Duke of Fuguo, and the county lord had all entered the house, and he was beating a drum in his heart, which was the fear of the unknown crisis; When he heard a scream, he slipped under his feet and almost threw himself out, his mind full of "really bad things".

And when he really stood here, he saw His Royal Highness who had lost his mind, the scared county lord, and the calm Fuguo Gong, and Shan Shen's mind was also a piece of mush.

The pouring rain was pouring into his head!

If it weren't for the wrong place and the wrong timing, Shan Shen would have wanted to ask Xu Jian to take a step to speak.

He could try to tell the difference, but he didn't know the bottom in his heart, and he still wanted to ask this bodhisattva to say a few words.

Believers need a word of accuracy!

Xu Jian looked at Master Shan's tangled expression, and probably knew what he was thinking.

The truth can't be given to Shan Shen thoroughly, what Xu Jian said is what can be said: "His Royal Highness was eating wine in my mansion at night, and when I heard that there was a situation in the Qianfu, I came over together, and I briefly checked it before, and a tree fell in the yard, and a hole was broken in the west of the main house.

When checking just now, Father-in-law Wang accidentally knocked over the oil lamp and burned the curtain, but fortunately, it was quickly extinguished.

Even His Highness was frightened and avoided it, and the county lord was also a little frightened."

After listening to this, Shan Shen wiped his face vigorously.

The process is basically explained, and the rest will have to wait for him to probe before distinguishing.

"Your Highness," Shan Shen called, "Your Highness will take someone to check, I'm afraid it will take some work, and the rain is still heavy, can you find another room to rest for a while?"

Li Shao was noncommittal.

Xu Jian made up his mind for him: "Lord Shan, just look, Your Highness has me here. When the west burned up for a while, only His Royal Highness, the county lord and Wang Gonggong were there, and Lord Shan might as well ask Wang Gonggong if he wanted to know what happened. If you want to ask the county lord, you can wait a little longer, let her slow down first."

Shan Shen agreed, quickly assigned manpower, and went to the west by himself.

Wang Gouzi has already extinguished the fire.

He should have gone out to look for Li Shao immediately, but he always felt that something was wrong with his previous mistake, so he pushed open the window, so that he could see the movements of Li Shao and the others in the courtyard, and he could stay in it to reminisce.

Just now, His Highness wanted to take the oil lamp in his hand, and although he was surprised, he went along with it.

But when he let go, His Highness did not catch it, and the lamp fell to the ground and burned to the curtain.

No, it's not!

He didn't want to let go at the time, but it was as if he had been suddenly stabbed by something, and something went wrong in the pain.

Thinking of this, Wang Gouzi hurriedly looked down at his hands.

The hands were very dirty, oily and gray, and they were very paste, and the fingers were burned a few times, and there was some burning pain, but it was not serious.

He thought carefully about the stinging seat in his hand for that moment, leaned over to the oil lamp, and looked back and forth at the light, as if there was a little red mark that had not been erased.

It's like being pricked by something......

Wang Gouzi gasped, there were only His Royal Highness and the county lord on the side at that time.

His Royal Highness has no reason to do this, even if the county lord has bad intentions, but she is standing half a distance away from the west!

No way?

The county lord looks delicate and delicate, how can he have such ability?

Besides, the county lord was frightened by the fire just now, and he had to rely on the support of the auxiliary prince when he walked.

Speaking of which, Wang Gouzi also heard of the county lord's childhood dream, the county lord dreamed of a fire, she was afraid of the fire and frightened, which is understandable and reasonable.

Wang Gouzi pondered, turned back to the place where the oil lamp fell, and squatted down to take a closer look.

The wet floor tiles were a mess with broken tiles, and if something like a pebble really stabbed him, it would be impossible to distinguish between them at this moment.

"Grandpa Wang."

Wang Gouzi was still thinking, and when he saw Shan Shen striding in, he quickly got up and said hello.

Shan Shen didn't delay, and asked directly about the experience.

Wang Gouzi first pointed out the hole in the roof to Master Shan, and then talked about the mistake of handing over the oil lamp, but he couldn't bear it, and said more: "The little one only felt a stinging pain in his fingers at the time, as if he had been pricked by something, otherwise His Royal Highness wouldn't have held it steady, and the little one wouldn't let go."

Shan Shen smiled, with a bit of comfort: "Grandpa Wang, horses have stumbled, people have misses, it's very common. Fortunately, no one was injured and the fire was quickly extinguished."

Wang Gouzi understood as soon as he heard this.

Shan Shen didn't believe him.

When people encounter problems, especially when they do something wrong, they often choose to clear it up and take themselves out to avoid punishment.

As a person in the palace, Wang Gouzi has seen and heard a lot.

His words just now are indeed very similar to shirking, no wonder he can't convince Shan Shen.

If you want to say that you are angry, you can't say it, after all, even Wang Gouzi himself can't be sure of the specific situation at that moment, the so-called red seal is not evidence at all, because of the firefighting, he has several messy openings on his hands.

In order to avoid things becoming more troublesome, Wang Gouzi simply followed Shan Shen's meaning: "I didn't hurt His Highness and the county lord, it's a blessing to be careful."

Seeing that he was not entangled, Shan Shen naturally brought over the topic.

He first squatted down to look at the burned curtain: "Fortunately, the rain that fell in made it wet, and if the weather is dry, it will be really troublesome." Isn't there a spill of lamp oil here? Otherwise, these are the must."

Wang Gouzi followed and echoed two sentences.

When the official found the ladder, he climbed up to see the loophole, and after a while, he came down and asked, "Was there smoke coming from above?" I just looked at it and it was gone, and there shouldn't be any further damage, but there was a hole in it."

In the courtyard outside, Li Shao was invited by Xu Jian to the wing room to take shelter from the rain.

There was no chair to sit on in the wing, and Li Shao stood by the door, still in a trance.

Lin Yunyan stood beside him and asked carefully, "Is Your Highness afraid?"

Li Shao was silent.

"I'm really scared," Lin Yunyan said to herself, "At first, I was calm, but when I looked at the flames, the whole person was stunned, I couldn't move my hands and feet, and my mind was full of fires that were burning bigger and bigger......

The smell of smoke was all over my breath, and it was so choking that I couldn't even cough it out, and my throat was choked.

The sound of burning wood was all over my ears, and I felt that soon the beams of the roof were going to collapse and the house was going to collapse.

I was supposed to run out, but I couldn't move it like I had nails under my feet.

What about Your Highness?"

Lin Yunyan's voice trembled, and her speed of speech became faster and faster.

It is not difficult for her to depict the fire scene at all, not to mention the dreams of her childhood, she really died in the fire in her last life, and she has seen the fallen roof beams crush Xu Jian with her own eyes.

It is precisely because of her experience that she can speak vividly and can once again "drag" Li Shao into the fire.

Li Shao shuddered.

Memories of the fire should have brought him scorching heat, but he

But I feel cold.

"I," he trembled much more than Lin Yunyan, it was from the fear and uneasiness of his heart, "I ......"

Lin Yunyan bit her lower lip and asked, "Was Your Highness afraid at that time? Were you afraid when you were carried out of the fire by my mother?"

Covering his face with his hands, Li Shao's legs weakened and he squatted down.

The images that had flashed in his mind before swept over again, and every scene was so clear.

He had forgotten it all, and tonight he remembered it all.

Because of the oil lamp, because of the firelight, because of Ning An, who looks very similar to Mrs. Chengyibo.

"At that time," Li Shao's throat rolled, and his voice was as hoarse as sandpaper, "I got up in the middle of the night to pee, and it was a eunuch who came to serve me.

He was very faced, I didn't seem to have seen him much, he brought me an oil lamp and let me hold it, it was too hot, I couldn't hold it, so I ......."

Lin Yunyan's breathing tightened, and her ears were beating like a drum.

That's what they wanted, the truth of that night was getting closer and closer to her, she couldn't wait to know, and she didn't dare to stimulate Li Shao loudly.

Clenching her fists, she tried her best to stabilize her voice, and led Li Shao down and said, "You knocked over the oil lamp?"

"I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it!" Li Shao became anxious, "I want to shout, I want to run, but I can't move, just like you said, my throat is blocked, there are nails under my feet, and when I come back to my senses, the fire is already burning."

Then there was the eunuch, who picked me up and said that he was going to wake up the queen mother, but he was wandering around, and said he couldn't see where to go.

I couldn't break free of him, and he covered my mouth and nose and said he wouldn't let me smoke in.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and I fainted, and when I woke up, I was already outside, and there was a fire in front of me, and the whole hall collapsed, and I ......."

In a trance, he couldn't hold on any longer, and sat down on the ground.
