"You have to ask yourself." Zhao Bohu stared at her with good eyes: "On the night of the chaos, there are only two types of people who dare to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to make trouble, either for money or for ulterior motives. The lady deliberately lit her main house with bright lights to lure the greedy thieves over. Is there any other place in the Prime Minister's Mansion that is more wealthy than the home of the mistress? If you really seek wealth, you may not even be able to walk after robbing the main house!"

Meng Ji opened his mouth wide and murmured, "I-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Why?" Zhao Bohu held his palms on the table, and his momentum was overwhelming. Meng Ji didn't dare to raise his head.

"I thought my wife put Zhao Sui and Chang Ji in the dark and used you as a cover in the open, right? You and my wife are sisters. Why do you believe in whatever Ying Ji and his daughter say?" Zhao Bohu pointed out the window and said, "Look at the yard you live in, it is built against the water. There are three sides of the water. Could it be that the thief can still attack your side yard with a boat raft?"

"But-----" Meng Ji thrust and cried, "I--------I was scared at that time! Sister, she shouldn't have left me alone, who was about to give birth!"

"That's your own fault!" Zhao Bohu suddenly raised his voice: "It would be easy if it was a thief who just wanted to make money, but the desperate people who rushed into the mansion to kill and set fire were clearly coming to the fourth prince. The emperor fled out of the palace. If there was a good brother, the only brother would be the emperor's father. If he didn't remove him, how could he get the wish? But you-----"

He suddenly turned around and pointed at Meng Ji, and said sternly, "But you took this opportunity to use the assassin's hand to get rid of Sui'er so that your child can win the position of Zhaogong Mansion! Humph! You really have a good plan! You started to make such a plan when you discovered that Tao's son Tao Qing, corresponding to Ji's intention, right?"

Meng Ji suddenly shook his hands and waved his hand desperately, "No, husband, there is no such thing. Ying Ji, this girl, is restless. Relying on her beauty, she often wants to show her face in front of the prime minister. I never knew that she and Tao Qing had a beginning and end!"

Zhao Bohu glanced at her in disgust: "Do you think Ying Ji and his daughter have been killed by a stick, and no one knows your thoughts? Why do you think I want to execute the mother and daughter? It's not because you are also the daughter of the Fan clan. For the reputation of the previous queen, for the wife and the Yue family, I have to keep this matter in the pot. It's not for you!"

"Husband!" Meng Ji heard this and seemed to have been drained from his soul. Mu looked at Zhao Bohu blankly: "In your heart, what are my memories?"

"Nothing is considered!" Zhao Bohu shook his sleeves. He was a scholar-official who grew up with the orthodox education of the "Book of Zhou" since childhood. He valued moral integrity very much. Meng Ji--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Meng Ji tried to kill the legitimate son by thieves, and to use the name of the fourth prince and the emperor's father, he showed deep fear in his eyes: "You led the thief to kill the fourth prince. What would happen if this matter leaked a little bit of news? I, hundreds of people from all over the country of Zhao, and there is also Yan State, who will be punished for extermination of the clan and destruction. Have you ever thought about it?"

When she heard this, Meng Ji's palms and vests were all sweating, but she knew it would be useless to argue again, so she asked with her neck in her mouth, "It's over, what is the prime minister going to do with her concubine?"

"Troubleshooting you?" Zhao Bohu smiled slightly, his smile full of helplessness, and a bit bitter: "It's not worth it. You are not worthy of my hard work. From then on, you have lived here in seclusion, and people will send you daily meals, but no one will serve you."

After saying this, he pushed open the door and left with two guards. Behind him, Meng Ji's shrill cry came: "You don't like me, why do you want me to come in? I will ruin my whole life-----"

A rainy night dissipated the heat wave of autumn tigers in the king city of Haojing. But as soon as the sun came out, the earth steamed, adding a little bit of humidity and heat, and sweated everywhere in the king city. The palace servants and eunuchs who could move were busy cleaning up the mess left by the chaos night.

The three main halls of the Central Palace that caught fire were almost flattened to the ground, and the bodies picked up were burned to pieces by the fire. Qi Zhong, who was responsible for handling the aftermath, worked hard for a day and night before he could barely clean up the rough fire.

The land of fire rushed to the royal city order office.

"What did you say? A corpse is missing?" I was really afraid of anything. The eunuch Jia's face, which was full of ravines, collapsed, making Qi Zhong shocked.

He didn't bother to wipe the sweat beads from his forehead and bowed, "Yes, the serious doctor in the Central Palace and the plagued palace people who moved in that night had a total of 138 people. But there were only 137 corpses, one missing."

"There was such a big fire that suddenly started to burn, so it shouldn't be too late to run out. Could it be that you clicked the wrong one?" The eunuch Jia still couldn't believe it.

"I have confirmed it over and over again, and one less is indeed." Qi Zhong replied without raising his head.

The eunuch Jia grabbed his sleeve: "Where is that uncle? Are you dead?"

"Ah this-------" Qi Zhong stuttered: "The bodies were burned unrecognizable by fire and could not be recognized. But--------"

"Just what?" the eunuch Jia shouted sharply.

"It's just that a dog hole was found on the side wall of the Central Palace, which seemed to be traces of someone crawling out."

With a "pa" sound, the eunuch Jia slapped the table with his palm and said angrily: "It seems that there is really a fish that has missed the net!"

"Master," Qi Zhong said timidly: "So many people may not be the uncle who escaped!"

"You, you-------" Eunuch Jia stretched out a thin finger to point at his apprentice, sighed and asked, "What's the difference in the palace?"

Qi Zhong frowned: "There is nothing else. I just heard that Princess Bo Ji had a dispute with General Sima Ji Duoyou, the royal city, at the gate of Xuanning Palace for some reason. The princess actually slapped Lord Sima and punished him to kneel in Yongxiang for half an hour. The palace people were talking about it, not knowing why the princess was so arrogant."

"Wait," the eunuch Jia raised his hand: "Xuanning Palace?"

"Yes," Qi Zhong was puzzled and said: "On the night of chaos, the princess stayed in Xuanning Palace for a night and only returned to the palace yesterday."

"Where is Ji Duoyou? Have you left the palace?" The eunuch Jia suddenly stood up and asked.

"I left the palace and returned home at dusk last night! Master, have you forgotten? Or did the emperor order him to go back home to rest!"

"Oh, oh!" The eunuch Jia couldn't help but stamp his feet and regretted it: "It's a lot of money, but it's still a missed place! When Ji Duoyou left the palace, he must have taken that uncle out!"

"No way? Master, did you see it?"

"If you see it, you need to check it?" The eunuch Jia slapped the back of his apprentice's head and said regretfully: "This woman knows too much. If she is asked to escape back to Jianghan, there will be endless troubles!"
