Chapter 289: Adding fuel to the fire
Seeing that there was already some mutual distrust between the two of them, Shen Yanshu's eyes flashed with a smile.
She continued to ask: "The disappearance of my guard Ah Qi and the drowning of the Shen family's maid, are they all the work of your people from King An's Mansion?"
"Yes. ”
"Yes. ”
The two of them answered in unison, then looked at each other and lowered their brows.
In this case, if one of them tells a lie or is silent, the other will push him into the abyss of pain, so none of them dare to bet, Shen Yanshu knows that this is human nature, very cruel.
But she had to.
When she used to watch her father interrogate prisoners, she thought it was a terrible thing, more terrible than killing an enemy on the battlefield, after all, it was too cruel to torture people like that, but the more this happened, the more useful information could be found.
Father said that no truly good person can save himself and his loved ones.
Moreover, he also gave them the choice to let them go as long as they were willing to say useful information.
Shen Yanshu looked at the two people, they had already suffered and become interested.
"Ruan Leyao's matter is also Wu Jin that you asked people to instruct?" Shen Yanshu asked.
They should be.
Shen Yanshu pointed at one of them and asked, "Why did King An target me?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Because King An listened to Miss Lu's suggestion and said that what King Ling cared about most was Princess Ling, so he let King An do this." ”
Miss Lu?
Shen Yanshu was slightly stunned, thinking in his mind about which woman surnamed Lu he had provoked, and finally understood.
"Is it Lu Huaimin?"
The man nodded and said, "That's her!"
Shen Yanshu remembered that when she was looking for revenge from the people of the Lu Mansion, Lu Huaiyuan and Jiang Jasmine were all cleaned up by her, but she didn't expect that there was also a Lu Huaimin, she originally thought that she would not live long if she was left to fend for herself like this, but she didn't expect her to come to the door by herself.
"How could King An believe a woman of unknown origin?" asked Shen Yanshu.
Both of them shook their heads and said, "We really don't know this, we only know that King An has everything he wants from Lu Huaimin." ”
This is strange, Lu Huaimin has no power, no beauty, and even his brain is not enough, how can King An obey her?
Could it be that there are other reasons?
No matter what the reason is, now that King An and Lu Huaimin are in the same boat, they want to use this to deal with her, which is really a troublesome thing.
Shen Yanshu now not only has to look at his mother and younger brother, but also always pay attention to Concubine Shu's movements, and now even King An has come in to stir up the situation, which is really a mess.
"Where is Ah Qi now?" asked Shen Yanshu.
The man replied, "It's in King An's mansion." ”
Shen Yanshu asked so much, and the rest of them couldn't answer, why King An believed Lu Huaimin, no one knew, but Lu Huaimin must hate her now, and he came to her again and again to find trouble, and it seems that he has to get rid of her as soon as possible.
Since King An took the initiative to trouble them, Shen Yanshu didn't want to be polite to him.
She turned to Mo Jiang and said, "Later, you take a few people to bring Ah Qi out, and set a fire to King An's Mansion when you leave, and be careful not to let people catch the handle." ”
Mo Jiang said: "Yes." ”
The matter was finally clarified, and Shen Yanshu rubbed his headache brain.
She looked at the two people who had been captured, and said to the guards on the side, "I'll release them when Ah Qi comes back." ”
After saying that, she turned to leave the dark prison, and the candle flickered, blurring her figure more and more.
In the evening, Yan Qinghan returned to the palace, and saw that the begonia flower sent by Master Lingyuan was being fiddled in the courtyard, and when Shen Yanshu was not in the capital, the begonia flower was handed over to the flower keeper in the mansion to take care of, but it didn't look as good as before.
Yan Qinghan stepped forward, looked at her tired look, and asked, "What's the matter?" If this begonia flower is not easy to take care of, please hire a few more florists." ”
Shen Yanshu turned his head to look at Yan Qinghan and said, "This flower is very easy to raise, but the gardeners are too careful, but it is counterproductive, my master only waters it on weekdays, so don't pay too much attention to it." ”
"There are quite a few of your masters, and they are all everyone. Yan Qing said coldly.
Master Lingyuan, a master of chess, Huang Tingzhou, a master of calligraphy, and Qi Yi, who personally taught her martial arts...... These people passed on what they had learned in half their lives to Shen Yanshu, and only then did they form such a she.
Shen Yanshu smiled: "Naturally, all the masters don't accept disciples easily, but for the sake of my talent, I made an exception." ”
Yan Qinghan couldn't help but laugh when she saw her like this.
He looked around and didn't seem to find Mojiang's shadow, and he asked, "Where did Mojiang go?"
"Went to burn the house. Shen Yanshu said.
Yan looked at Shen Yanshu with a cold chill: "What house to burn?"
Shen Yanshu raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that Mojiang's efficiency is quite high, so I went without reporting to you." ”
At this time, Mo Feng walked in and hurriedly reported: "Lord Wang, King An's Mansion is on fire, and the fire is very big, Jingzhao Mansion is looking for us to borrow someone to put out the fire." ”
"An Wangfu......" Yan Qinghan was just about to say something, but he suddenly paused, turned his head to look at Shen Yanshu, and asked, "You asked Mo Jiang to do this?"
Shen Yanshu nodded.
Yan Qinghan asked, "Why do you suddenly want to burn King An's Mansion?"
Shen Yanshu said with an aggrieved face: "King An bullied me, he did what Ruan Leyao did last time, they also arrested Ah Qi, and today they sent people to hunt me down, he did this to me, can you bear it?"
"I can't bear it, the lady did a good job!" Yan Qinghan nodded and said with a serious face.
Mo Feng on the side said: "That subordinate asked people to go back to Jingzhao Mansion Yin, and said that we don't have any extra manpower." ”
"Wait. Yan Qinghan shouted to Mo Feng.
Mo Feng clenched his fists: "What else does the prince command?"
"Go ahead, remember to bring some oil. Yan Qinghan said.
Ink Wind: "......"
The fire in King An's Mansion has been burning for a long time, and I heard that many soldiers have gone to help, but the fire is getting bigger and bigger, as if it can't be extinguished, but fortunately, it burned first in a small house in the middle of nowhere, and there were no casualties.
The fire gradually went out on the second day, but the entire Anwang's Mansion had been burned to ashes, and everything was burned.
Even the neighbors who lived next door fled one after another, but fortunately it did not affect the past.
One of Nuoda's palaces was burned to ashes in this way, and there was a lot of loss, which made everyone sigh.
It was evening, and the fire in a small house suddenly spread, no one thought of it, and it was impossible to judge how the fire started, whether someone deliberately set it on fire, after all, there was no evidence.
The emperor was furious, it was not easy to rebuild a palace, not to mention that the emperor decided that it was the responsibility of the people in King An's mansion, so he reprimanded King An, but the reprimand was reprimanded, and it was natural that a prince would not have a place to stay.
After some deliberation, the emperor gave an empty mansion in the west of the city to King An as a residence.
It's just that the mansion is located in a remote location, and it is far less big than the previous palace, but the emperor means that for King An, it is enough.
"How can this be reasonable!" King An slammed the table, looking at the new mansion, he saw what was not pleasing to the eye.
Princess An stepped forward: "Lord, you will just take a moment, these are only temporary." ”
King An's eyes were full of anger: "I originally wanted to ask my father to give us a bigger house, but the fourth child stopped us on the side, what a Yan Qinghan!
Seeing him so angry, Princess An flashed her eyes and said, "Who made you embarrassed Princess Ling before, and you still expect him to be able to send you charcoal in the snow if people don't fall into the lower stone!"
King An snorted coldly and said, "How would he know that it was our hands and feet. ”
"Not only did he know, but I think he planted the fire as well. Lu Huaimin walked straight in from the outside of the hall, his eyes dark.
She is wearing a purple shawl skirt today, and she is wearing a jade hairpin on her head, which looks a little more expensive than the original champion sister.
When Princess An saw Lu Huaimin's appearance, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, but she still said with a smile on her face: "What does Sister Lu mean by this?
Lu Huaimin sneered and said, "It is because of his help that the fire in King An's Mansion is getting bigger and bigger. ”
When she said this, King An also felt that something was wrong, and when he thought about it, it seemed that this was really the case, no wonder the fire couldn't be extinguished, and even the officers and soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion and the Shenji Battalion brought people over...... If Yan Qinghan's people didn't do anything, he didn't believe it.
"I'm going to enter the palace to meet my father!" King An immediately stood up, he wanted to tell his father what Emperor Yan Qinghan had done.
Lu Huaimin stretched out his hand to stop King An and said, "Your Highness, don't be impetuous, if you enter the palace directly like this, it will be equivalent to slander without evidence, and Your Majesty will not believe you at that time." ”
King An paused, angry in his heart.
"Is this just the way to let this king swallow his anger?"
His original Anwang Mansion was gone overnight, and all the precious things he treasured in it were all turned to ashes, how could it not make people feel heartache!
"Lord, I said it. As long as you deal with Shen Yanshu first, you will definitely be able to defeat Yan Qinghan. Lu Huaimin said.
Princess An, who was on the side, didn't think so, she said: "Did you succeed in dealing with Princess An before? The kid who was caught ran away, maybe this fire was put by Princess Ling in order to take revenge on us......"
"That's enough!" King An yelled at Princess An, "What do you know! You go out first, don't get in the way of our business here." ”
