Chapter 95: Your Majesty, You Burned the Offering Wrong
helping to screen the candidates, Wan Ting's future husband will surely be a good one. This matter is probably something she and Jiang Feng don't need to worry about; Night Warm Words just needs to k..."Lord Yun!" Quan Qingcheng called out to Yun Chen, "Lord Yun, come here quickly! It seems like there's a fire in the city."
This sentence not only summoned Yun Chen, but also Lian Shi and Zhuai'er. Empress Dowager Li also wanted to go and have a look, but she had to kneel. The Emperor hadn't called her up, who dared to
In the city, there were fires burning brightly. The flames were raging intensely, but they weren't widespread; they were just concentrated in one spot.
"After looking for a while, Zhu'er said, 'Why does that direction look familiar' "
Yun Chen let out a chuckle, "More than just familiar, it's ridiculously familiar! Isn't that the direction of the Su Royal Mansion"
Chen slapped his thigh at once, "Right! It's the Duke of Shu’s Mansion! The Duke of Shu’s Mansion is on fire!"
This is just like the interesting incident of the Sushu Wangfu fire, I couldn't help myself and burst into laughter.
Qian Qingcheng was the emperor. The capital city caught fire, and he should have been anxious. But seeing Lian Shi smiling, Yun Chen also smiling, and Zhuier looking like she had gotten revenge, he gradually understood. This fire was probably not an accident, but someone set it.
Who could start a fire so quickly and accurately, burning only the Duke of Su's mansion without harming anything else
Then there's only that one in the Yanhuadong Palace!
Isn't this guy getting revenge for his beloved sister! If so, the one who hurt her sister is his sixth older brother
Empress Dowager Li faintly heard the words from the cliff. She was shocked and, in a panic, rushed to Yan Hua Palace and shouted: "Your Majesty! The Fourth Sister of the Night was injured not by me, nor by His Highness the Sixth Prince. Please, Your Majesty, investigate this thoroughly!"
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her.
At this time, the Su residence was in chaos, everyone busy putting out the fire. Quan Qinglu was supported by servants and stood in the middle of the courtyard. He wanted to rush out several times to escape, but there were fires everywhere, where could he run
"How in the world did this fire start Who knows how it started!" Quan Qinglu roared with anger, "What are you useless servants good for! You let the fire burn like this before even noticing Are you all blind!"
A servant whimpered, "Your Highness, it wasn't that we weren't alert. The fire started so suddenly, as if from the heavens, bursting into flames in an instant! We had no time to react at all!"
This made Quinglu even angrier, he raised his foot to kick the other person. However, he forgot about the injuries on his body. As soon as he lifted his foot, he felt a sharp pain and his carefully healed wound ripped open again. The pain was so intense that he collapsed to his knees.
The eunuch in charge, Hai also knelt down and urged loudly: "Your Highness, please don't be rash. Your body is important. Although the fire is big, fortunately, no one was hurt. We just need to extinguish a path as an exit so we can escape."
Quan Qinglu gritted his teeth and endured the pain, asking again, "Which courtyards caught fire Could it be just my courtyard"
"The house is shaking his head, " definitely not just the prince's courtyard, but all the courtyards caught fire. "
"
"Yes, not a single good place in the entire Duke Su's mansion!" A passerby heard the two speaking and immediately replied, then shared his own thoughts, "This fire doesn't seem to be set by humans at all, it seems more like the master himself set it. Only the master could set such a thorough, decisive, and unnoticed fire."
Quan Qinglu, what kind of master are you talking about Where did such a master come from Even if there was one, a master wouldn't come down to Earth and set fires! This is clearly just these servants finding excuses to escape responsibility and avoid being beheaded.
Before I could speak, my mind suddenly flashed with a terrifying thought.
Master, there is a master! The Northern Qi has masters! Isn't that the one in Yan Huagong
For these mortals, the Emperor wasn't he just like a master This land, this very continent, whoever that Emperor wants dead, dies! Whoever he wants destroyed, is destroyed!
Could it be that this fire was set by him But why would he burn down his own mansion What did he do to offend such a powerful deity
Suddenly, a torrent of memories flooded his mind. He recalled the families he had harmed, the officials he had colluded with to buy and sell positions, the silver he had embezzled...and then there were others, like that cold night on the second day of the first lunar month when Wen Yan stood outside his door, rejected.
Also, he kept Ye Wen at the door, then Ye Wen rushed in, injuring Ye Hongzhuang and also stabbing himself. Later, Ye Wen came back, and after that, he smashed his palace.
Memory finally fixed on the silver bell at Ye Wen's waist.
How could he have forgotten this Ye Wenyan was wearing the Emperor's Soul-Breaking Bell on his waist. The reason why his mansion was smashed repeatedly and he didn't dare to speak out was because of that bell. How could he forget it now
Quán Qīnglù was extremely annoyed, so annoyed that he pounded his head with his fists. As he kept pounding, he heard a voice boom from within the flames— “Quán Qīnglù, who gave you the guts to have the assassin kill Ye Sijie at night”
This was the voice of the Emperor, everyone could hear it, because there was only the Emperor below who could produce such a domineering voice.
No figure in sight, only the sound could be heard. The sound was awe-inspiring, soul-shaking.
All eyes turned to Quán Qīnglù, a look of understanding dawning on everyone's faces. Oh, so this fire was started by the Almighty Emperor! So it was their master who had orchestrated the assassination of that Night Fourth Sister who kept smashing walls at random.
Is your master full After taking such a beating under Sister Night's hands, he still doesn't reflect on his actions and dares to defy her If you had the guts, you should have resisted when she came to break down the walls! You should have just killed him outright instead of leaving him half-dead and dragging him out of the city, only for him to wake up and seek revenge!
Being cowardly when you can be strong, and then going after assassins to kill them... is this fear of Night Four Sister or not fearing her at all
But speaking of it, the assassination of Night Fourth Sister. What does this have to do with Lord Guan Di When did Lord Guan Di become so approachable, starting to care about his subordinates' family matters What is the relationship between Lord Guan Di and Night Fourth Sister
People speculated endlessly, but they only dared to do so in their hearts. Out loud, not a word would they utter.
Quan Qinglu was wronged, kneeling on the ground and sobbing: "Killed Ye Wenyan I didn't! Your Majesty, I didn't! It wasn't me who did it, really, I didn't do anything! Your Majesty, you burned the wrong person, you burned the wrong person!"
Quan Qinglu roared in despair, but the Emperor's voice never returned. The pressure was gone, leaving only a raging inferno that burned everyone like pigs on a spit, almost able to smell the roasting meat.
A servant said, “My lord, this fire won’t go out. No matter how much water we pour on it, it won’t be extinguished.”
Someone else said, “Although the fire is inextinguishable, it doesn’t seem to burn people. It just feels a bit like being roasted. I guess to put out the fire, we’d have to wait until all the houses are burned down! When will the palace be completely burnt down, that’s when it’ll be over.”
Quinglu was on the verge of collapse. Who in the world had he taken the fall for Who in their right mind would go out of their way to assassinate Yè Wényán! That ancestor destroyed his courtyard walls and gates, and he didn't even dare make a sound. So who could be so bold as to directly attack and kill him
Quan Qinglu was on the verge of tears, but Shi Lifen didn't care whether it was him or not. Shi Lifen only thought that Quan Qinglu had a grudge against Ye Wenyan, and it was possible that Quan Qinglu had assassinated Ye Wenyan. Yes, just a possibility, just one, he gave the Su Wangfu a fire.
It's better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go, in case we happen to be right.
The fire at Duke Su's mansion illuminated the night, and General's Mansion wasn't faring much better.
At this moment, Xiao Shi and Ye Jie Sheng were sitting in the study together, facing them was their son, Ye Fei Zhou.
The second young master of the Ye family has finally returned from his hometown. Besides bringing greetings from the elders to the noble families in Beijing, he also sent a grand gift to his cousin, Ye Wenyan.
For this matter, Ye Wan Sheng is very angry because Ye Fei Zhou failed.
"Since you don't have the confidence, why do you still make a move" he questioned Ye Fei Zhou, his face turning blue with anger.
Ye Fei Zhou is eighteen years old this year, the eldest son of the second room, and also an only child.
Unlike Dafang Ye Feiyu's gentle and elegant demeanor, this man had a slightly feminine face. His eyes were upturned at the corners, his thin lips were pursed, and his figure was even thinner than a woman's. His face was so thin that it had a pointed chin. Although his complexion was fair, his lips had a faint pink hue, which added a touch of seductiveness to his already feminine features.
When she heard her father's question, Ye Fei Zhou felt wronged. She pursed her lips and said: "I was very confident at first. Si Cong grew up with us. Even though our ancestors personally taught her martial arts, I knew her capabilities well. But Father and Mother, don't you find it strange Dozens of top assassins couldn't kill her. This isn't the Ye Wenyan from before."
Xiao's heart skipped a beat. This wasn't the Ye Wenyan she knew from before. She had felt this way for a long time, and now her son brought it up again. Could it be true that he was switched at birth
It's impossible, absolutely impossible for this to happen. Ye Wenyan is Ye Wenyan, she's my aunt, how could she possibly get it wrong.
"What are we to do then Since the person is alive, they will definitely come back to seek revenge on us." Xiao shi shivered as she whispered about seeking revenge in the dead of night. Old grudges hadn't been settled, and now new hatred had been added – would this ever end Should she completely give up on the idea of having Ye Wen treat her daughter's wounds
Yes, it's time to completely let go. Ye Wenyan is impossible to heal Hongzhuang's injuries, it's better not to think about it anymore, and focus all your energy on confronting that dead girl. She was too cautious before, which led her to lose again and again in front of Ye Wenyan. This is not the ability a Miss Xiao should have.
Xiao made up her mind secretly, and said, "Fine, I'll seek revenge. I might as well fight her to the end."
Ye Xing's anger was palpable as he slammed his fist on the table, glaring at Xiao Shi fiercely. "Fight it to the end If you have the guts, fight it yourself! Don't drag others into this mess! Xiao Shubi, I ask you, what do you see in your daughter Do you know when she sent that letter to her brother You knew all along and didn't stop her. Why involve Fei Zhou in this This is my only son, don't you want Ye Wenyan to burn his hands too"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!dservant, “You’ve really grown up.” 。"I've learned a lot from following Miss Four, and I've grown up." 。I see what's going on at home. Though Miss says she doesn't want to get involved anymore, I kno...
