Gu Huaian woke up quickly after hearing their voices, "Oh, you two are finally back. Is everything okay?"
Gu Su Liang shook his head, "What's wrong with you?" Looking at the clothes on the floor, Gu Su Liang obviously didn't understand what happened. He and Zhui Yun put a bag outside Shen Zhongbai's study. As expected, it didn't take long for the people in the palace to start panicking and running around to put out the fire. But they didn't expect that after they searched for the place where the fire had just been lit, it was as calm as if it were there. It's like nothing happened.
"What's going on? Why do I feel like something's not right about this?" Zhuiyun muttered to himself and didn't say anything important, but the grass here had indeed been stepped on. This shows that there were indeed people here just now, and there were quite a lot of them.
"It's nothing, it's just that the place to go in is not very good. There happens to be a guard in uniform there. He seems to have fallen behind. It's such a coincidence that there is a sneaky little eunuch who doesn't know what he is doing. He happened to be caught. I have nowhere to go. It’s hidden in the pond under the strange rocks.”
Gu Huai'an finished what he wanted to say calmly, but it was indeed like this. After all, he was really unlucky this time. He could have thought that where he entered, there happened to be a guard in uniform standing there. If not, If he had reacted quickly, he might have been caught instead of the sneaky little eunuch.
After hearing this, Gu Suliang couldn't hold back and almost laughed. But fortunately, the matter was completed smoothly. Each of them did not reveal their whereabouts, which was half the success.
Only Gu Qiang felt a little distressed when she saw these people, "Why don't you all go back and rest early? It's already getting late. Fortunately, there is nothing much to do during the day these days, so you can still sleep in." Gu Qiang looked a little shaken, after all, she had already After not sleeping all night, I couldn't keep myself up and continue talking to them.
"Okay, then let's all go back and find a place to sleep and have a good rest."
Gu Suliang took Gu Huaian up to find a room to rest. Fortunately, none of them had any major problems, which was considered a blessing in misfortune.
It is estimated that no one except the people in the palace knew that Lou Mingyue was under house arrest in the palace. If not for Shen Siyin, it would be difficult for them to get such news, but fortunately, it seems that everything is fine It was destined by God. If someone gets involved in this matter, I am afraid that the next people involved in this matter may be a few of them.
Lou Mingyue probably never dreamed that there is such a saying in this world, and Lou Mingyue relies on her strong martial arts skills to try to escape from the palace, but she did not expect that the terrain of the palace is really It's complicated. I walked around for a long time, but I couldn't even find the door. I wanted to climb over the wall to get out, but I bumped into a man in black under the wall. Anyway, I was dizzy after the collision. Before I could wait, When he reacted, that person had already disappeared without a trace. He was standing at a blind corner, but he didn't expect that many Jin Yiwei suddenly rushed over from around him. He was so frightened that he hid in the grass. , dare not move at all.
I don’t know where I got this bad luck. I was almost able to go out, but this little eunuch did something bad and insisted on sneaking out at night. Now it’s great, he attracted so many people. It is already very rare for me not to be exposed now, let alone want to escape from this place.
In the final analysis, the man in black is still to blame. What choice did he make, and how did he disappear in the blink of an eye
Lou Mingyue probably never thought that she would encounter such a thing twice, and it was more or less because of Gu Qiang. The last time, because of the secret guards under Gu Qiang, she was hanged on the beam in the house of the Minister of Industry. After one night, this time I could only huddle tightly in that corner. I was really lucky.
But Lou Mingyue actually understood in her heart that even if she could really escape, it would be of no use. Shen Zhongbai must have expected this, so he poisoned his food. The one who climbed over the wall just now At that time, I could obviously jump over it directly, but it took some effort to build up before I could get on the wall, and then I bumped into the person on the opposite side.
Shen Zhongbai was really ambitious. Neither he nor his father had any hint of rebellion against him, but in the end he still ended up like this, which really made people feel uncomfortable.
"Tough luck!"
Gu Huaian soaked in the pool all night, and Lou Mingyue also spent the night feeding mosquitoes in the grass. In addition, when she just climbed over the wall, Lou Mingyue had clearly noticed that her body was completely different from before, so she still Deciding to return to the place where he was imprisoned, he must at least get the antidote first, otherwise, it would be useless even if he got out.
"Is this how you patrol the palace? Then I would like to know how you could set the outside of the study on fire. Okay, do you want to tell me that the person who set the fire had wings and set a fire? Did you leave after that?”
Shen Zhongbai was concentrating on reading the memorial when the sound of running water suddenly started to sound outside the door. Ever since the last fire in Qingxin Palace, he had become very resistant to things like fire. Although he was not afraid of it, he always felt that , didn’t want something like this to happen again, so today, even though there was no damage in the palace, he still got into a big fire.
"My subordinates have neglected their duties and please be punished by your Majesty."
"Punish, punish, punish, will you say anything else besides punishment? Have you investigated where the fire started? Who set the fire?" Shen Zhongbai knew what the current commander was like. This person is like a piece of cotton. He can't understand and can't be touched. He seems to accept whatever you say to him. Even if you get angry with him now, it seems to be of no use.
Jin Yiwei lowered his head slightly, "The little eunuch in the palace said that sparks floating from nowhere ignited the wood placed not far outside the imperial study room, so he lit the fire, but the subordinates I think this incident seems to have been done deliberately."
"Oh? Didn't the little eunuch himself say that he saw it? What evidence do you have that it was a man-made fire?"
"There is no evidence, but my subordinate has just tried it. If it is a spark flying from the sky, it is impossible to ignite so many wood." Unless someone throws the fire stick directly, if it is a little farther away, , the little eunuch may mistakenly regard the train as a flying Mars. "
Shen Zhongbai didn't want to listen to what he said anymore, "Since you suspect that someone set the fire, then go and investigate. What you say here is completely useless. You have to find out the cause of the fire within ten days." , and to arrest the person who set the fire, you just need to tell me if you can do it."
"I accept the order."
After Chiyuan, the selection of Jinyiwei became more and more strict, and the rules became even stricter. They were even forbidden from talking to the female relatives of the concubines in the harem, and they were not even allowed to speak to a small palace maid. Gao Qi They also didn't want things like this to continue to happen. After all, they all saw Chi Yuan's tragic death.
Gao Qi has a relatively cold personality. Apart from obeying all Shen Zhongbai's orders, he is indifferent to everyone and never gets close to others. He can be considered a relatively powerful person. Of course, this time Lou Mingyue is imprisoned. He was also responsible for guarding the room, but in fact Lou Mingyue's mind was more flexible. No matter how tightly Gao Qi watched the entire room, Lou Mingyue would still have a chance to escape.
It's just that there are too many Jinyiwei. Lou Mingyue can't escape from this one, but he can't escape from the next one. After several experiments, if there is no one to take care of him, he really may not be able to escape. He could run out, not to mention that his physical condition was slowly getting worse now. I think Shen Zhongbai had gone to great lengths to use himself to blackmail his father.
After Gao Qi finished solving Shen Zhongbai's affairs, he hurriedly returned to his original post. Lou Mingyue was not very old and was simply a good person. If he hadn't been cautious and took pictures of a few more people to watch and stay nearby, , I’m afraid he should have run away a long time ago.
"Hey, General Gao, have you just come back from being scolded? Don't get angry at me. I'm a county prince after all. If you offend me, if I go out in the future, I won't give it to you. What a good fruit to eat." As Lou Mingyue spoke, she did not forget to scratch the places on her face that were bitten by mosquitoes. "Why is there not even a mosquito repellent in this palace? Can you send someone to help me tomorrow? Want some from the Emperor? It’s already summer, if I don’t share it, my blood will be sucked by these mosquitoes.”
"Whatever." Gao Qi was still worried about how to find the murderer who set the fire today. Although he was sure that it was indeed a man-made arson, there was no evidence at all, let alone finding the real murderer within ten days. , it’s simply a fantasy.
"Look, look, I've talked to you so much, and you just replied to me like this. It's really rude. If that's the case, I might as well be talking to the flowers and plants at the door."
