Chapter 323 The Study Room
However, this New Year's Eve dinner was not completed, because on the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, there was suddenly water in the palace.

A big fire started in the little prince's small courtyard. Fortunately, he was not in the mansion that night. Dongguo quickly called for help when he knew about it, but the fire was so hot that carrying buckets and basins did not help at all.

Seeing that the fire was about to reach the study, Dongguo knew that there were many important things hidden in Ezha's study, and no one was allowed to enter it on weekdays. After a while, the water froze, and the fire could not continue, and only burned the three bedrooms in the back.

Ezaping lived here every day, but when he came back, he had no choice but to move to Dongguo.Lord Belle just shook his hands and cursed a few words, anyway, it was Eza's place, and it didn't involve him.Da Fujin ordered people to clean up the ruins, and asked Ezhake impatiently if he had any valuables.

Ezha thought for a while, he was cautious, and there was nothing important in the bedroom except his usual clothes and ribbons.Fortunately, the study was saved, so apart from the three rooms, the loss was not that big.

Da Fujin just felt dejected, approaching the new year, how to get out of the water well, although he didn't lose anything important, but looking at the new year, he couldn't rebuild it in the past few days, so he felt uncomfortable.

On the contrary, Ezha held Dongguo's hand and said with a smile, "It's burning anyway, what can Ernie do, I don't have nowhere to go now, I was supposed to live here in Fujin, I used to be busy with general affairs, and didn't care much about her , This is the meaning of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, if you want me to accompany Dongguo more, don't think too much about Er Nie."

He also gained new insight into Dongguo this time.That is, she will make a decisive decision and order the courtyard wall to be pushed down to block the fire path.Otherwise, the study will really burn down, and it will be a difficult year.

Da Fujin forced a smile, "Don't laugh at me, I'm just nostalgic. That study was used by your Ama before..."

In front of Dongguo, she just mentioned it a little bit.

When she was angry with the old King Jian, the old King Jian often lived there.Every time she pretended to answer and went to the study to make amends. The two had a quarrel in the room and then reconciled on the bed.

So, sometimes it's not angry, the old King Jian likes to take her there to live there occasionally for a day or two, the love is the strongest.

But now it has been completely burnt down, just like the old King Jian, there is nowhere to find him in the world.

Ezha saw that he was sad, and comforted him, "When the spring begins, my son will find the most skillful craftsman and build it up like before. Don't be sad. It's the New Year. If you hurt yourself, It was my son's fault."

Da Fujin naturally understood his intentions, sighed, and didn't say much.

Gossip is over, and my mother's heart is also soothed, so it's time to do what I should do.

His place, especially the study room, was his most important place and also the place with the most strict defenses. How could it be burned down?

If it is said to be spontaneous combustion, he does not believe it at all.

With so many houses in the mansion, why did the most important place catch fire?
Regardless of who did it, it just reached out to him, and it was years ago, which pissed him off.

How did the fire start, he personally investigated carefully.

At one end of his room, there were extremely deep black marks.He picked it off with his hands, and a shallow, meandering groove appeared.

He stood up and smelled the black mud in his hand.

Sure enough, there was a smell of fuel.

Dongguo stood far away, feeling cold in his heart.

She was no longer the simple princess she was back then. When the fire broke out, there were a few tranced shadows among the firefighters, which she had never seen before.

It's just that I couldn't care about it at the time.

When the fire in the palace was on fire, Najiu had already told Guanglu.

Guanglu was silent for a while, then asked, "Jiu, what do you think..."

Najiu bowed his head and said, "It's not easy to catch fire in the cold winter, but it's windy tonight, so it's not good. The people in the palace were brought by Lord Baylor last year, and after Amin was disposed of, they replaced a group. It's really a mixed bag. But the little prince is all his own people, so it doesn't matter..."

Guanglu was bored, "What do you see strangely?"

Najiu said, "I didn't find anything appropriate in the northern border where the slaves went."

Guang Lu snorted, "So, Le Erbei wants to make trouble here?"

As for what happened last time, the clues were cut off when we found Le Erbei's side.But what he did was definitely right.He didn't pay attention to him, but it seems that this Lord Baylor is not dead.

Najiu didn't answer, just replied, "I know that the little prince is not in the mansion tonight."

Guang Lu turned his head and frowned and said, "It's strange. He didn't intend to kill... what did he want to do? You go and have a look, the little prince's end should be watched quickly, and no accident can happen to him."

There was a lot of noise outside, and Master Qi broke in through the curtain, "Second Brother, Second Brother, something happened, something happened!!! Hey, Master Jiu is here too? So what, something happened to the palace, it's on fire, we can all see it from here! Master Jiu has good ears, do you know what happened?"

Na Jiu is here, apparently to report.

"Hey, Master Jiu, you didn't set the fire, did you? There is a girl named Xingzhen in the mansion..." Seventh Master said unhappily, "Second brother, if you need anything, you should tell younger brother in advance... Miss Xingzhen, hey, you can't..."

He stumbled and couldn't explain clearly.But in this fire, the one who can't burn the most is Miss Xing.

The second master Guanglu heard it, and looked at this silly brother strangely.

Is he acting in such a hurry for Xingzhen?

Najiu was already ready to leave, but now he was dragging his clothes, so he had to push away his hand and said, "My lord, the place where the fire is burning will not be able to burn your Xing girl!"

Lao Qi felt awkward listening, "Hey, hey, what's going on, my Xing girl belongs to the second brother, the second brother's..." He shouted at Na Jiu's back.

Who is he for, not for the second brother!
He's not for that girl, it's none of his business, it's the second brother's daughter-in-law.

On the second day, Guanglu went to visit Ezha, and Lao Qi clamored to follow him.

Le Erbei was not there, so he met Da Fujin first, and then followed Eza to the study to discuss matters. Lao Qi looked around absent-mindedly.Xing Zhen accompanied Da Fujin, not looking at him.

When everyone came out, Xing Zhen was well-behaved and sent Guang Lu out for Da Fujin.

Lao Qi stepped down and pulled her sleeves, "Miss Xing, didn't you get scared last night?"

Xing Zhen looked at Guang Lu's back, but didn't notice his words.

Seeing that she ignored her, Lao Qi said, "Miss Xing, the second master is in a hurry and wants to see you early in the morning, but he always has to deal with the little prince first. Don't be angry... that, last time, last time You didn't tell me about it, and I didn't ask about it...but don't even annoy me...I couldn't sleep all night last night, I don't know if you were..."

"By what? Burned to death?" Xing Zhen turned her head, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth.
