Blood Lord's Sweetheart

Chapter 543: Another Fire

"Brother, what do you think of the girl who played the guqin just now? Mr. Ouyang's tutor is very good, so I think she should be a good one."

Long Qingchen didn't watch the dancing in the audience, but started chatting with Xuewuqing instead.

Hearing the meaning of these words, how could Xuewuqing not understand, and suddenly burst out laughing.Thinking about the little thoughts of the emperor, he really never stopped.

As soon as I was about to accept my relatives on my side, I started giving them away on the other side.This thought is really not so fast.

Xue Wuqing understands, and Wuying naturally understands its meaning, even if his face turns dark.However, due to Xue Wuqing's presence on the scene, it is not easy to attack, but looking at people's eyes, he keeps flying cold knives.

As His Majesty the Emperor, Long Qingchen should not be seen at all.His eyes are only looking at our Lord Regent, and his eyes are full of eagerness.

"The appearance is not difficult to catch the eye, as for the others, it is still unknown."

What Xuewuqing said was ambiguous, but Wuying's eyes became anxious when he heard these words.A pair of beautiful eyes glowed red.

Those ministers who were close, when they heard what their majesty revealed during the conversation with the regent, they immediately understood why they praised the girl earlier.

They were fighting each other in their hearts, weighing the pros and cons, and pondering the feasibility.

In this way, a different battle quietly unfolded at the palace banquet.Silent, but intense.

Wuying had a lot of thoughts, and there were all kinds of uneasy speculations in his mind, each of which was extremely bad.

In the end, he secretly decided that no matter who moved his mind that shouldn't be moved, he would let him know how death was written.

After His Majesty finished the fire, he started chatting with Xue Wuqing as if nothing had happened.

Chatting for a while, talking about the current situation for a while, and commenting on Yingying and Yanyan on the stage for a while, looking very leisurely.

Xue Wuqing didn't show any special expression, but he didn't show any impatience either.When the other party is chatting, they will even nod their heads and give approval.

This also made Long Qingchen speak more vigorously.You know, it's not often that the Lord Regent gives face like this.

For Wuying who was sitting next to him, Xuewuqing didn't do much to comfort him other than patting the other person's arm during the period.

This made Wuying, who was sitting on the sidelines, feel infinitely wronged by the current situation, and of course more resentment.

With everyone having their own concerns, nearly three hours passed without knowing it, and the palace banquet was about to come to an end.

During this period, His Majesty pointed out several others with outstanding talents and looks.Xue Wuqing was still the same as at the beginning, did not agree with anything, but did not raise any objections.

All these situations made the emperor very happy, and his face was almost full of smiles.And the ministers are also happy, they are also beneficiaries!

As for the feeling of Wuying?Everyone expressed embarrassment, people should not be too greedy.You already got the big head, what else do you want?You must know that you are not the original partner, since it is a stolen item, you still want to monopolize it!

I thought that the entire palace banquet would end satisfactorily with everyone's satisfaction.But at this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from afar...

Seeing the people running over quickly, Sun Ping, the chief eunuch, went up to meet them first.

"In such a panic, what's going on?"

"Director Sun, something has happened. The people below came to report. Just now, a fire broke out in the Prince Regent's Mansion. The fire was so fast that it caught up as soon as it was seen. The fire was too fast, and it was too late for everyone to try to put out the fire."

The guard who came to report the news finished the matter in a concise language.

"Which mansion is it?"

Sun Ping was startled when he heard this, and then hurriedly asked for the specific location.

"It's the new Regent's Palace."

"Hiss! It turned out to be there!"

When he heard that it was a newly built mansion, Sun Ping secretly said that it was broken. This is simply naked provocation!

"You wait now, I'll go back and report."

After speaking, Sun Ping hurried back quickly.Don't be careless about this matter, you must know that the thief who set the fire last time has not been caught yet.

Looking at Sun Ping who hurried back, Long Qingchen frowned.People are usually very calm, showing this demeanor, presumably something happened.

When he came close to the emperor, Sun Ping did not reply loudly, but walked to Long Qingchen's side and whispered in his ear.

After hearing the other party's simple and shocking statement, Long Qingchen's face darkened slightly.The newly built Regent's House is on fire, who did it?The guess of the last arsonist was immediately overturned. Just kidding, he sent that kid out himself.

Today's small life, he guessed, is definitely very nourishing, and it is impossible to run back and set fire.Who is taking advantage of this wind to make trouble?What do you want to do?

But now is not the time to think about these things, the first thing to do is to tell the news to the elder brother beside him.

"Brother, just now the people below reported..."

"Needless to say, I've heard it."

Long Qingchen, who was about to explain the matter, was interrupted by Xue Wurui as soon as he opened his mouth.It's so close, and it's not a secret message, it's strange if you can't hear it.

"My loves, it's getting late, let's end today's palace banquet here."

Just as a good dance was over, Long Qingchen directly announced that the palace banquet was over.Although the ending was a bit abrupt, no one would say anything more.

After the words were finished, Long Qingchen, Xue Wuqing and his party calmly got up and left, and there was a sound of respect behind them.

Regent House.

Standing beside the scorched and smoky ruins from time to time, all the people had different expressions.

Long Qingchen, who came along with him, looked a bit dumbfounded.Thinking to myself, be good, the Prince Regent's Mansion is about to be completed, who is the big enemy?Set off such a fierce fire!It burned down to nothing but ruins.

Wuying's face was so dark that it couldn't be darker, he knew that it was definitely aimed at him.Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the fire started from the main courtyard every time.

On the other hand, Xue Wuqing, his face was very calm, as if it was on fire, not where he lived.He really just came to watch the excitement.

Qing Yun, who rushed over first, walked steadily when he realized that Xue Wuqing and the others had arrived.

"Meet the master."

"How did the fire start?"

"Back to the master, it is "Yanyun salt". After inspection by subordinates, someone piled up and sprinkled a large amount of Yanyun salt powder and Yanyun saltpeter all over the palace.

On the ground everywhere, there are many ashes of the "dream soul fragrance" that have been exhausted.It must be the arsonist who first lit the Menghun incense and inserted it on a large amount of Yanyun nitrate powder. When it was burned out, he could ignite the Yanyun nitrate powder.Immediately afterwards, everything will be on fire.

And Menghunxiang has a psychedelic effect, which is why, when the fire broke out, the guards did not put out the fire immediately. "

What Qingyun said was clear and clear, and his analysis was completely in place.

"Are there any casualties?"

Hearing that Menghunxiang was used, Xue Wurui asked the staff.

It's not that he cares much about people's life and death, but not to mention one or two fires, if there are more casualties, the face of the Prince Regent's Palace will be greatly lost.

"Well... probably not..."

When answering this question, Qingyun was ambiguous, obviously not very sure.

However, such an answer obviously cannot satisfy Xue Wuqing, and he also hates this specious answer the most.

"Haven't checked the casualties yet?"

The blood in the question was ruthless, and the voice was low.

If Qingyun answered yes at this time, it would be his dereliction of duty.

"It's like this. The subordinates have checked the guards. Among the known personnel, no casualties have been found."

"So, why the answer is not sure."

Hearing this, Xue Wuqing was puzzled.Since there were no casualties, just answer "no" to the question.

"It is true that there were no casualties among the guards, but in the courtyard, there were five charred corpses.

Because the people have been charred by the fire, their characteristics cannot be discerned at all, so their identities cannot be determined.This also makes it impossible for the subordinates to be sure that there are other people in our palace who have had an accident.

The amount of investigation is a bit large, so there is no result yet. "

Under the pressure, Qingyun reported to the master Xue Wuqing one by one what he found through his own investigation.

This is really unexpected.Xuewuqing never thought that there would be an unknown person who would die in his "home".

"Is there a clue to indicate who did it?"

"It has been found out, and all the evidence points to the fact that the person who set the fire was Qingzhu."

When talking about this name, Qingyun was really speechless.He never thought that not only did that guy run away, but before he left, he actually did something like this.

It's really a family. Although the methods are different, the result is exactly the same.Thinking again, do they have enmity with the house of the Prince Regent's Mansion?

He had been busy with this palace for a long time, and it was finally coming to an end.Now it seems that it's time to start all over again, whoever he provoked!

"It's him?"

Hearing this name, Xueruiqing really couldn't laugh or cry in his heart.The one or two will not do anything else.

"It turned out to be that thing! I knew it was not a law-abiding person, so damn it! Where is the person?"

Wuying glared angrily, with a bloodthirsty expression flashing across his face.

"Well... From the analysis of the burning speed of Menghun Incense, it will take about two hours to burn it out. And we spent about an hour from extinguishing the fire to investigating and arranging. In other words, a total of It took nearly three hours.

Although I just issued the order to search, three hours is enough for people to go far.In the case of unknown direction and ignorance, it is not optimistic to search for people in a short time. "

Qingyun's realistic answer is not exaggerating at all.His analysis is in place and his explanation is reasonable, so that people can't fault it.

"Cough cough..."

Long Qingchen on the side couldn't help coughing, because he really wanted to laugh, and he couldn't bear it!

He thought that the people under that man were really good at setting fire and escaping.And every one of them is very talented, and I can't help but want to praise them.

"What, is there a problem? Or do you want to express some different opinions?"

Looking at the person who coughed lightly, Xue ruthlessly raised his eyebrows and asked.

"No, I don't have any different opinions. I just feel uncomfortable in my throat. It may be because I fell asleep last night."

Looking at Xue Wuqing's playful eyes, Long Qingchen hastily denied it.

Hearing what Xuewuqing said, Wuying also cast his eyes on Long Qingchen, full of suspicion.But there was nothing wrong with the expression of the person he was looking at, and the normal ones couldn't be normal anymore.
