In the middle of the night, Prince Qi's mansion was on fire!
Gong Jue watched the flames rise, especially in summer, the fire was unstoppable, and it burned down one-fifth of the house in one fell swoop, including the one where the imperial sister used to live.
His face was extremely gloomy, and he was standing on the edge of the fire, his face flushed red, and the depths of his eyes were even more blood red.
"Your Highness!" Luo Qi knelt down beside him, "The person who set the fire was chased and killed himself by biting the poison!"
At this time, Luo Xiaoqi also knelt down and rushed over, "Report! My lord, many people have written to impeach you and persuade the emperor to take back the power of the forbidden army in your hands! Do you need to intercept it?"
"Report - Your Majesty! A spy appeared in the forbidden army barracks and sparked infighting. Is it to be executed on the spot?!"
"Report! Lord, the isolation belt has been dug, and the fire will not spread any more!"
The fire was still churning, they were just kneeling here, they all felt that it was hard to breathe, and their faces were hot, but Gong Jue's face did not change. He heard the reply one after another, and just said coldly.
"Order everyone to come here and save this house."
"What about the other houses?" You must know that the fire was burning, and there was also the residence of the prince's study. At the beginning, in order to accompany the princess, the prince deliberately moved to this corner, and then he didn't move out... The study area, don't you need rescue
Gong Jue closed his eyes, covered the anger in his eyes, and said coldly.
"Let it burn."
At this time, Luo Qi was pushed by Xiao Qi and stood up and said.
"My lord, fighting the fire is not the most important thing right now, there are still many people waiting for your order!"
Only then did Gong Jue glance at them.
"What did you just say?"
Everyone is down!
But there was no way, they still gritted their teeth and said it again, Gong Jue's eyes moved away from the house where the emperor lived in front of him, and fell on them.
"This king is very clear about the person who set the fire, and there is no need to investigate. If you impeach this king, you don't need to stop it. Let them impeach him. If possible, let our people impeach this king. As for the forbidden army, this king has his own arrangements. no need to worry."
Luo Qi didn't understand why they themselves had to follow the impeachment of the prince
But he didn't ask, just gritted his teeth and said, "Those who impeached, who usually don't take much of our benefits, now turn their backs when they say they've turned their backs!"
Gong Jue was silent, which was to be expected. After all, he has always, except for his confidants, other courtiers just used money to win over, and has never formed a large-scale party for personal gain.
Because he swore that he would not be an emperor, then it would be better if he did not conflict with the prince. Once he broke with the prince, would those people help the future emperor, or a prince who swore not to be an emperor? Anyone can tell the difference.
"My lord, since the prince has deceived us, how can we fight back?"
According to the thoughts of their servants and the style of the prince in peacetime, he felt that if the prince made a move, the prince would definitely lose miserably!
But surprisingly, Gong Jue just shook his head.
"hold on."
"What are you waiting for?" someone asked subconsciously.
Gong Jue watched the fire gradually die out, and his expression eased slightly.
Waiting for the emperor's decision... He is afraid that if he stays in the capital, he will bloodbath this land.
Seeing that Gong Jue didn't move, they were all a little embarrassed.
Luo Qi frowned and said, "I don't know why the prince suddenly went crazy! During this time, he kept causing trouble for us. A few days ago, the riot in Zhao prison must have been done by the prince! What is he going to do?"
"That's right! He also took all the money from Yinzhuang, and with his move, many large orders were taken away, and Yinzhuang suffered a huge loss!"
Xiao Qi said angrily.
Gong Jue actually smiled at this time, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
"You are right."
"Ok?"
"Ok?!"
"He's really crazy."
While Gong Jue was busy putting out the fire, the palace was also panicking!
The ground was full of tossed documents and documents, and the emperor sat on the dragon chair with his hands on his forehead, feeling indescribably tired.
Chang Xi quickly drove out the palace servants who were kneeling at the bottom, and persuaded earnestly.
"Your Majesty, your health is important..."
"Haha..." Gong Sheng, who bowed his head and rubbed his head, let out a deep laugh, echoing in the hall late at night, a little creepy.
"Gong Che really doesn't make a move, it's amazing when he makes a move..." Gong Sheng sneered, "He unscrupulously provoked Gong Jue. First, he saw that Gong Jue listened to Mo'er's words, and would not attack forcefully. Second, even if he counterattacked Gong Jue. I'm afraid Che is also happy to have a fight with Gong Jue, good! Very good, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain, they should fight!"
When Chang Xi heard this, his whole old face was wrinkled together, "Your Majesty... Your two Highnesses... will be measured..."
"Any sense?" Gong Sheng's voice suddenly rose! "Gong Che's withdrawal of capital has already caused panic among the people. The forbidden army is fighting infighting. Tonight, the palace is on fire! What's the next step
At this time, a little eunuch brought the book over the night, Chang Xi glanced at it and didn't want to submit it, but Gong Sheng had already snatched it, and read several books in a row, his face turned blue with anger, and his laughter became colder!
"Okay... Okay! There are so many impeachment documents, I'm afraid there will be more tomorrow morning! This is already a clear fight!"
Chang Xi was holding the book in his hand, just like holding a hot potato, the two highnesses were in a commotion, and the entire Zhaoyang Palace was like cooking oil on fire, and it was about to burn at all times.
At this time, he misses the princess very much. If the princess is here, it would be absolutely impossible for such a thing to happen!
At this time, after Gong Sheng lost his temper, he calmed down a bit.
He really can't intervene in this matter. Now Gong Che is just looking for Gong Jue to vent his anger. If he intervenes, the situation will only get worse.
It is even more impossible to stop Gong Jue's counterattack. Once it is pressed hard, Gong Jue resists, and that is an endless situation.
He still remembers Gong Jue saying to him: Father, you should thank the royal sister, without her, the entire royal family would be my enemy.
Now as long as he thinks about this sentence, he feels a chill down his spine, and he is afraid that Gong Jue will go crazy with him.
"Your Majesty... how are you doing now?"
Chang Xi felt that this matter must be resolved before King Qi counterattacks.
After a while, Gong Sheng said quietly.
"Didn't Gong Jue say to repair the national road? Let him go!"
"But..." Chang Xi was confused, but didn't you still want to let King Qi get married as soon as possible? Once he went to other places, it would be even more expansive and difficult to control.
"What else is there to do..."
After Gong Sheng said these words, he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
He knew very well in his heart that Gong Jue had been suppressed until he did not fight back. It was because he had rejected his request to leave Beijing a few days ago, but now, forced by the situation, Gong Sheng had to make concessions... Embrace.
