Chapter 591 Fire in the palace(2/2)
The young eunuch felt very strange why the old eunuch didn't say anything when he discovered the fire.
The old eunuch was a little surprised when he saw the young eunuch coming in.
"Little boy, why are you here?"
The old eunuch smiled coldly, turned around and stabbed the young eunuch in the heart.
"old..."
Bang!
The little eunuch fell to the ground and died.
The whole palace was in commotion, and soldiers, eunuchs, and maids rushed over to put out the fire.
The old eunuch blended into the crowd and left through another door.
....
Jinling, Imperial Palace.
There is a Taoist temple in the palace. It is not large in area, but it is very exquisite. On the door is written: Xuanji Temple.
There is a couplet written on both sides: Use two eyes to see the sky; one mind to calculate mysteries.
This is Xuanjizi's dojo, which was specially built by Li Chengdao for him.
A eunuch hurriedly entered Xuanji Temple.
Xuanjizi was discussing the government affairs of the DPRK and China with the second prince Li Jiye.
After Li Chengdao went into seclusion, the government affairs of the DPRK and China were discussed between the two.
The eunuch entered the door and said anxiously: "Your Highness, Taoist Priest, the Wolong Valley Palace is in trouble."
Li Jiye heard that there was a fire in the palace and asked hurriedly: "Has the fire been put out?"
The eunuch shook his head and said: "I heard that it was all burned and many people were burned to death."
Li Jiye looked at Xuan Jizi and lamented: "It's over. The palace in Wolong Valley was my father's beloved palace. Now it's burned down. I will be punished."
Xuanjizi felt strange and asked: "Why did it suddenly catch fire?"
The eunuch shook his head and said, "I don't know. I just said it was burned."
Xuanjizi couldn't think of anything for a while, so he said: "Your Highness, please ask the people from the Imperial City Department to conduct a thorough investigation. As long as the murderer is caught, this matter will not be regarded as Your Highness's crime."
Xuanjizi didn't know whether it was arson or a fire.
What he meant was to let Li Jiye find a scapegoat to take the blame.
Of course Li Jiye understood it and immediately said: "Yes, call Yu Fuguo into the palace."
The eunuch went to the Imperial City Department immediately.
Not long after, Yufuguo entered the mysterious world.
"Your Highness, Taoist Priest."
Yu Fuguo said respectfully.
Li Jiye said sternly: "Someone set fire to the Wolong Valley Palace. I order you to investigate the case thoroughly. You must catch the real culprit and give an explanation to your father."
Yu Fuguo already knew about the fire in the palace, and also knew that Li Jiye wanted to find a scapegoat.
"Slave, I'm going to investigate."
Yufu State immediately sent people to conduct a thorough investigation.
After the people left, Li Jiye was still very worried and asked: "Taoist Priest, do you think you should tell your father?"
Xuanjizi said: "Your Highness, if you report this at this time, the Emperor will ask, what will you say?"
Li Jiye thought it was right to at least catch a scapegoat.
"Okay, let's wait and see."
Li Jiye really hoped that someone behind the scenes would deliberately set the fire.
