Views:

Although Fenghuang set fire to this place, the insects were very active, and it must not be completely burned. There must still be many insects here.

"Do you know why this princess set fire to this place?" Fenghuang asked the leader of the officers and soldiers calmly.

"The meaning of the Seventh Concubine, how dare the little ones guess, let alone the little ones can't guess it." The leader of the officers and soldiers replied to Fenghuang with a smile on his face.

"My princess told you before that I came to investigate the case. I found that there are many bugs in this yard." The chief officer was confused when he heard this, and set fire to such a large house for bugs. Could it be that the seventh princess is still afraid of bugs? no? Fenghuang saw the suspicion of the chief of the officers and soldiers, so Fenghuang continued: "Do you know about the dead bodies in the north of the city attacking the guards?"

"Back to the seventh princess, this little one knows that what you burned was the house where the dead bodies lived, so it really should be burned." The leader of the officers and soldiers said flatteringly.

Fenghuang shook his head and said: "The 30 people in that family have been poisoned by insects, and it is those insects that make trouble in their bodies. I don't know how many insects exist in this yard. If we don't set fire to this yard, then Bugs will drill into other people's bodies, and more people will become bugs."

The chief of the officers and soldiers jumped, the worm was just a legendary thing, everyone had only heard of it but never seen it, "Oh, that's how it is, it's really scary, the worm is so small, I heard the old man say it before. If anyone gets on that thing, there will be no salvation." The leader of the officers and soldiers sighed, and the other officers and soldiers also looked at each other in dismay.

"So, when you patrol around here, you must be careful. Don't let the bugs get into your body. Once you find the bugs, set them on fire immediately. You must let these bugs go extinct." Fenghuang commanded worriedly. .

"Yes, Seventh Princess, don't worry, we will do our best to clean up the dirty things around when we see insects burning insects." The leader of the officers and soldiers vowed to Fenghuang.

Fenghuang nodded in satisfaction. This time, Fenghuang didn't make a trip in vain. He found such a big thing about insects here, and the rest of the things were basically explained to the chief officer, so he said to Chu Meng: "We can almost Get out of here."

"Yes." Chu Meng glanced at his people and signaled to leave, as if thinking of something, Fenghuang said calmly: "Miss Chu Meng, I will take you back, those people in the house can go back first."

Chu Meng knew that it was Fenghuang who was protecting her identity from being exposed, so she also smiled and said, "Thank you, Princess." As he said that, Chu Meng glanced at his people, and they scattered one after another, Fenghuang and Chu Meng fled to the north. Go in the direction of the court.

Yang Tingjing is practicing calligraphy in the study room. If the Jing characters written on the big rice paper are vigorous and powerful, and the characters are like the person, the characters are as calm and quiet as the person who wrote it.

There was a knock on the door.

"My lord, I have something to report."

"Come in", Yang Tingjing uttered three words, a man came in, and quickly closed the door after he came in, Yang Tingjing's eyes were still fixed on the words he wrote, and he didn't look up, the man respectfully Respectfully bowed to Yang Tingjing, and said in a low voice: "Reporting to the lord, since our investigation of the case in the north of the city involves insects, the thirty people were poisoned, but before I wait Check, the princess has already gone to investigate the case, and set fire to the house."

The man said with some shame: "Because I was afraid that the princess would find out, so I didn't enter the house. I just listened to what the princess said, and didn't investigate anything."

Yang Tingjing put down the writing brush in his hand, sat on the teacher's chair and turned the paper fan in his hand, thinking about it quietly, Yang Tingjing narrowed his eyes and said: "Jing Ge, where is Mr. Di in the capital now?"

"In the Beili Pavilion, I don't dare not know what to do. The Beili Pavilion has a strong sense of prevention, and the news cannot be transmitted. Besides, it is the princess's territory. I dare not take it lightly." Jing Ge said in a deep voice. Said.

"Let Li Ge and Yu Ge investigate the matter of Gu insects, and you go and keep an eye on Mr. Di." Yang Tingjing thought for a while and said to his subordinates, the matter of gunpowder has not been found for such a long time. , Yang Tingjing sent Chu Ge to investigate the matter of gunpowder, and the case of worms was handed over to Li Ge and Yu Ge. Mr. Di is an unpredictable person, and he has a deep connection with the thousand-faced Hades, and the two knew each other at the same time Phoenix, willing to do things for Phoenix, there can only be one mystery!

Yang Tingjing clenched his fists involuntarily. No matter how many things happened in the past, or how deeply they were involved with Fenghuang, he would cut them off. No one can take Fenghuang away from him!

"Yes, this subordinate knows." Jing Ge said in a low voice.

"Get back." Yang Tingjing waved to Jing Ge, and Jing Ge withdrew. As soon as Jing Ge left, Chu Ge came to see Yang Tingjing.

"Chu Ge, why did you come back suddenly? Did you find out something about the gunpowder?" Yang Tingjing said without changing his expression while sitting on the grand master's chair.

"Reporting to the Lord, we found out that there is a secret passage in the moat." Chu Ge reported to Yang Tingjing that they really did not expect those people to transfer the gunpowder to the secret passage in the moat. The secret passage seemed to have some ideas. How on earth do people know

"Oh? Secret passage? Could it be that they hid gunpowder in the secret passage of the moat?" Yang Tingjing said in a speculative tone, and Chu Ge nodded and said, "Yes, my lord, as you guessed, we found it in the secret passage. There's a lot of gunpowder."

It has been so long since the gunpowder incident, this explosion not only injured Yang Tingxing, but also injured many innocent people. A national teacher was sent to investigate. The emperor and ministers were happy to see that someone picked up the hot potato. No one cared about the gunpowder anymore.

"No wonder I haven't found gunpowder after searching for so long. The Yu family is smart enough to come up with this trick and hide the gunpowder under the moat. How can ordinary people think that there are secret passages under the moat?" Yang Tingjing Ban Said in a mocking half admiration.

"Yes, my lord, this Yu family is really cunning. This is really a secret, let us find it easily." Chu Ge sighed and said that they have been fighting wits and courage with the Yu family for a while, but the Yu family has not yet fallen. on their hands.

"Is all the gunpowder there?" Yang Tingxing asked quietly, Chu Ge nodded, and said confidently: "We have checked the entire capital these days, and there will be absolutely no fish that slipped through the net. All the gunpowder is there Inside the dark passage."
