Chapter 680 The Ninth Villain 33

At this moment, her stomach was rumbling with hunger. Jian Tong touched her body and bought a few clothes just now. The person in the tailor shop gave her some silver taels, so she went to the bun stall to buy some buns.

The steamed bun vendor packed some steamed buns for her, and Jian Tong gave Yinliang and left.

She didn't have a meal last night either, and her stomach was almost flattened by hunger. She stuffed a few buns in a row before she felt full, and hiccupped indistinctly.

Jian Tong went directly into another inn, and the waiter in the inn saw a guest coming, so he hurriedly greeted him, and warmly took care of him, "Guest officer, please come inside!"

"Open me a first-class guest room!" Jian Tong took out a piece of silver and gave it to Xiao Er, speaking in a rough voice.

"Okay! Guest officer, come with me!" The waiter reached out to take the money, and then led Jian Tong to a room on the second floor, opened the door, turned to her and said, "Guest officer, if you don't If there is any order, the little one will go down first and get busy."

"Yeah." Jian Tong thought for a while, and told Xiao Er, "By noon, make me a portion of the best dishes in your store and bring them up."

"Okay! Write it down, little one!" The waiter in the shop responded and nodded repeatedly.

Only then did Jian Tong enter the room, shut the door tightly, and decided to sleep again.

After all, she didn't sleep well in that crappy room yesterday, so she was still a little sleepy.

Falling down on the bed, Jian Tong went to see Duke Zhou...

In the Prince Regent's Mansion, Xia Houshen washed and changed his clothes under the service of the maid, and then began to have breakfast, but there was a knock on the door outside, and the voice of his secret guard Chengfeng sounded, "My lord!"

"What's the matter?" Xia Houshen asked concisely while eating his breakfast slowly.

"The subordinates just got the news that there was a fire in the palace last night."

Xiahou listened deeply, the hand holding the vegetables paused, and then asked casually, "Are there any casualties?" He didn't care about the people in the palace at all, but it was unavoidable to have a conditioned reflex when he heard the fire.

"The place where the fire broke out was located in the cold palace, and a large area was burned, and a concubine was burned to death in the palace." Chengfeng knew that the master didn't like other people talking nonsense, so he said directly.

what?

Xia Houshen's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly slapped the desk, he was a little lost.

Is the cold palace on fire?Burned a concubine to death?

Will it be her?

"...Master?!" Hearing the movement inside, Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, and said cautiously.

Only then did Xia Houshen regain his senses, and asked stiffly, "Do you know who the concubine was burned to death?"

"...It's the daughter of the household servant Yao Jinkang, Yao Liangdi!" Chengfeng replied in a low voice, he knew that the master's mother and concubine were also burned alive in the cold palace back then, this is the pain in the master's heart .

Hearing the exact answer, Xia Houshen's mind suddenly buzzed, and he couldn't hear anything clearly. He only left the palace yesterday, and the cold palace was on fire.

Is this too much of a coincidence?

He couldn't help thinking of her crying and hugging him and saying, "My lord, please save me, I really can't stay in the cold palace anymore, if this continues, I will be there!"

She was crying pitifully at that time, but he ruthlessly rejected her request and sent her back.

Could it be that she couldn't think about it for a while, so she set fire/burned herself?

Taking a deep breath, Xia Houshen tried his best to suppress the feeling of suffocation in his heart. He knew that he shouldn't have left the fire folder to her.
