The grandma was trembling, her voice seemed to be trembling, "Go...go and have a look...and you will know."

Marquis Jing'an's heart skipped a beat, and without saying a word, he immediately went to the inner courtyard.

In the inner room, the eldest princess was trembling all over, huddled in the corner of the bed with a livid face, and no one came near. The people in the room, surrounded by three floors inside and three outside, were all personal attendants and children and grandchildren. What would happen to her?

People are so scared.

Marquis Jing'an frowned and waved his hand, dismissing everyone in the room. Then he sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hand, "Hui'er, it's me."

The eldest princess grabbed the hand of Marquis Jing'an and said, "Consort! Consort! The late emperor...it's the late emperor who's here...it's the late emperor who's here to complain to me. He's blaming me! He's blaming me! He's blaming me for not watching.

Since he died so unjustly, he should not surrender to the murderer. He was wronged..."

Any injustice?

Too many people have died unjustly!

Marquis Jing'an didn't take it seriously, but still nodded: "What happened to the late Emperor? Have you seen the late Emperor?"

The eldest princess had a look of horror on her face and pointed towards the pillow, "Go and take a look at that."

Marquis Jing'an looked over and saw a white jade Buddha's hand lying next to the pillow. It was the size of a palm. It was extremely rare in terms of jade quality and carving.

"This is?" Marquis Jing'an was a little confused.

The tears of the eldest princess suddenly fell down, "This Buddha's hand was given to me by my father when I was a child. At that time, my younger brother also wanted it, and we even quarreled over it. The late emperor went away and was buried.

, I personally pressed this thing into the late emperor’s hand. If he likes it, let him take it with him. But now this thing has come back! Who else could it be if he wasn’t the late emperor?”

Marquis Jing'an could not think of such a thing and said: "This is not the late emperor..."

"Yes, yes! Yes!" The eldest princess became stubborn, "It must be the late emperor."

I couldn't even listen to any explanation.

Marquis Jing'an looked at the Buddha's hand and said to himself, if you can put it in, you don't know if others will take it out secretly.

In the previous dynasty, after the emperor was encased, the eunuchs who served beside him would take out the contents before sealing the coffin. After the coffin was sealed, who would go to inspect it? After ten or twenty years, no one would notice.

When the time comes, it’s okay to sell the thing. Therefore, this thing should not be buried with the late emperor. It’s just that I don’t know how the person who did this was caught by the person behind the scenes, and then he took this thing as his own. Now.

But he comes here to pretend to be a ghost.

But she wanted to say this, but the eldest princess couldn't listen to her at the moment.

Marquis Jing'an could only say: "The late emperor was worried about you and knew that you liked this thing, so he sent it back to you. But he didn't want to scare you instead."

The eldest princess frowned: "Are you serious?"

"When have I ever lied to you in this life?" Marquis Jing'an pulled the eldest princess, "Okay, go to sleep. I won't go to the front tonight and will rest here. You can sleep peacefully. I am

People who have narrowly escaped death on the battlefield have a strong sense of hostility and are impervious to all evil. It’s okay!”

The expression on the face of the eldest princess relaxed, but her hand still held Marquis Jing'an's hand. Marquis Jing'an felt sad when he looked at his old wife's gray hair. He felt even more sad about the people behind the scenes.

I hated it.

Since the death of the late emperor, the health of the eldest princess has really deteriorated. Now this fright made her feel much older in an instant. Watching her lie down, he also lay beside her, curling up with her.

He leaned on himself and gently patted her to sleep. But his mind had already drifted away. Originally, he wanted to guard the border, but now, the situation has changed suddenly, and the original plan may not be possible.

Lin Yutong turned over and turned to look at Fourth Master, "...she seemed to want me to confine myself in the palace. If I really go out, she will probably have to confine me in the palace. I don't want to scream."

I messed up her affairs. But I really can't look at her like this and not care about anything."

The fourth master said 'hmm', "Princess Duanqin has become Gan's pawn this time. She is charging in the front, and Gan is fanning the flames from behind... Based on what she said when you enter the palace today, she

I'm afraid that not only does she want to fan the flames, but she also wants to fish in troubled waters. The more chaotic the water, the better."

Lin Yutong's eyes flashed and the corners of his mouth moved.

Fourth Master turned to look at Lin Yutong: "What did you think of?"

Lin Yutong whispered: "We only have secret guards in our hands, but it's still not enough. Originally, the Marquis of Jing'an was able to guard the border, so we took the opportunity to extend our hands to the army. But now, the water from far away cannot quench the thirst for near."

"Want to quench your thirst with water nearby?" Fourth Master suddenly smiled, "You have really made progress now. It is really rare to be able to think of this level. There are always hands nearby, think about it..."

An idea flashed in Lin Yutong's mind, and he sat up suddenly, "You mean... breaking the crossbow army!"

Fourth Master nodded, "Now it is in Jin Chengan's hands, but it shouldn't be difficult to get it into our hands."

Yes! Yes! The army is a sharp blade, and it can be used by whoever holds it.

"I'll see Chu Huaiyu first tomorrow." Lin Yutong lay down and felt relaxed.

As soon as a person relaxes, sleepiness will come immediately.

Just as my eyelids started to tremble, I heard the sound of gongs beating outside, followed immediately by the sound of someone shouting 'fire'.

The Fourth Master suddenly got up and said, "The sound came from the west."

In this mansion, they live in the east, and those who live in the west, the sound can still be transmitted, it should be within the range of the mansion. Once the fire breaks out, it is no joke. Pavilions, pavilions, corridors, all connected

Yes, once it catches fire, no one can escape.

Lin Yutong's expression changed, and her lips pressed together tightly. The person who came up last night was sent by Princess Duanqin. It is estimated that because the manpower at hand was limited and could not withstand the loss, so he only dared to poison in such a sneaky way. But

The people tonight are much more courageous. Obviously, it is no longer the person who is going to marry Princess Duan. It should be the Gan family.

Gan asked her to enter the palace today, probably because she asked her to do this. She pretended to be a member of Prince Duan's palace and caused chaos everywhere. It was just because she had differences with her that she put away this idea. She just didn't know

Who is the person who did this for her?

Now that a fire has been set in Duke Jin's mansion, has she never thought that she is also in this mansion? What if something happens?

Lin Yutong felt a little heavy and a little chilly.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Fourth Master patted Lin Yutong.

Lin Yutong shook his head: "No! Don't I also have reservations about her? I can't blame others!"

While talking, Sanxi and Guiwu were already outside.

"Master, the fire started in the outer courtyard." Guixi replied from outside.

Outer courtyard?

"Who lives in the outer courtyard tonight?" Fourth Master asked while getting dressed.

"The Duke is in the outer courtyard." Guiwu's voice was a little hesitant, "And it seems that the fire started in the study of the Duke."

Jin Chengan was in the study, and the fire started from inside.

It’s not that the person who set the fire is very capable, it’s that Jin Chengan set the fire himself.

Lin Yutong and Fourth Master packed up and hurried over. Sure enough, they could see a fire in the distance.

The two of them were the last to arrive. When they arrived, no one put out the fire, and they all stared blankly at the outer wall of the study.

On the wall, the two blood-red ghosts looked like they had been skinned. But the patterns on their bodies clearly showed their extraordinary identities.

The one with bleeding from his seven orifices is the late emperor, and the one with bloody holes on his head is Prince Duan.

The more fierce the fire burned, the clearer the paintings on the wall became, and the more intense the color of the blood became.

"Blood...blood...look...the ground is covered with blood..." someone shouted with a sharp voice.

Lin Yutong looked at the ground. Sure enough, blood seemed to be emerging from the ground. The ground slowly turned red. It was like blood was constantly emerging from the ground, dyeing the ground red.

Lin Yutong thought to himself, there are many chemical reagents that can turn red. The higher the temperature, the redder the color. Nowadays, those charlatans have similar things in their hands. They don't take them to heart.

Just look at Jin Chengan who is standing aside. He is wearing underwear, with black ash and fire marks on his clothes, and the hair on his head is messy. This proves that he was indeed in the study when the fire broke out.

. And it has stopped.

"Fighting the fire! What are you doing standing still?" Fourth Master shouted, "Everyone who puts out the fire tonight will get a tael of gold! Hurry!"

One tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver!

Having money can make the devil push the mill; having more money can make the mill push the ghost.

The still picture suddenly came to life as if a switch had been turned on.

The fourth master called a few more guards and pushed the corridor connected to the study from the middle.

In this way, these few rooms are isolated to prevent the fire from spreading. It doesn't matter if only those few houses are burned down. They will need to be renovated anyway.

Snowflakes were flying in the sky, and the snow fell on the ground. The snow in front of the study also turned red. It looked so weird and strange.

Mrs. Chu looked up and saw Lin Yutong reaching out to twist up the dirt on the ground, and sneered: "The origin is not the right way, and the ghosts and gods are angry..."

Before he could say anything, he heard a crisp slap.

Lin Yutong didn't look back, knowing that it was Jin Chengan who made the move.

"Shut up!" Jin Chengan scolded.

This is not only saying that Princess Lin Yutong has a bad origin, but also alluding to the emperor's throne being erroneous. She is blaming Chu Yuan's death on the emperor. She usually hates it in her heart.

, but facing Lin Yutong, there was nothing he could do. Now that he saw the late emperor appearing, he probably felt that someone was supporting him.

What a fool! Dead is dead! If the dead were more useful than the living, this world would be the same as it is now.

"What did your Highness see?" Jin Cheng'an asked behind him when he saw Lin Yutong looking seriously.
