Chapter 72
Guan Shuzhu put the personal jade that Li Xi gave on the waist of "Li Xi" on the bed, nodded and replied: "That's natural, I don't care how much effort the princess took to get this human skin mask. "
Li Xi put the embroidered shoes she wore when she met Prince Li's brother and sister at noon today under the bed, and when Guan Shuzhu put the jade pendant on the bed, he asked her puzzledly: "But Princess, why do you have to put all these things away?" Arranged in the private room where you rest?
Wouldn't it be superfluous? "
The private room where the two are staying now is not Li Xi's, but Guan Shuzhu's.
Hearing this, Guan Shuzhu didn't tell her the reason right away, but said mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes.
Well, now that everything is set up, let's get out, and soon the fish will be baiting. "
It didn't take long for the two to leave from the relatively hidden window positions, Xiaoshui and Xiaoying received the signal, made a "tired" appearance, and came out of the private room.
"The princess has already rested, and we can also eat some meals, Xiao Shui, I heard that there is a lot of meat in the meal at noon today.
It's not that you don't like meat, so give me some more then. "
As Xiaoshui and Xiaoying talked, they also got farther and farther away from the private room.
At this time, a maidservant with a veil on her face and a porcelain pot in her hand quietly walked around from behind the pillar to the door of the private room.
The maid walked very lightly and tiptoed into the house.
At the door of the couch room, the window curtain was lowered. It seemed that there was a figure lying on the bed resting inside. After looking at it, he began to pour tung oil all over the room.
Tung oil poured it quietly, seeing that there was still no movement in the figure in the couch, the maid took out a fire pocket from her cuff again.
Before the moment of lighting the tung oil, the servant girl obviously hesitated, but after a while, she still made up her mind to ignite the tung oil.
The place stained with tung oil will ignite immediately when exposed to fire, and the burning speed is very fast.
Not long after, the smoke in the private room became thicker.
The smoke was so thick that even the guests in the residence a hundred steps away from Guan Shuzhu's private room could feel it.
Everyone who was still taking a nap for a while got up one after another, wanting to see what happened.
"The water is gone, the water is gone!!"
"The private room where Princess Changle lives is flooded!"
Qin Taifu had just got up from the couch when he heard such a voice from outside, he was so frightened that he didn't even have time to put on his official hat, so he quickly walked out of the couch and asked his servants to lead the way.
Seeing from a distance that the private room where Guan Shuzhu lived was already billowing with smoke, and it was burned to the point of disfigurement, Taifu Qin's legs softened suddenly, cold sweat overflowed from his forehead, and there was only one thought in his head.
It’s over.
He is finished, the two most beloved princesses in the palace are now in trouble with him, even if he stands on the side of the fourth prince, he will definitely not be able to keep his current position.
The servants at the side saw that Taifu Qin was a little unsteady, so he quickly reached out to help him.
At this time, all the guests staying in the Taifu's mansion also arrived one after another, and Guan Shuzhu, who was hiding in the dark, was almost there, and appeared from the corridor on one side with slow steps.
Seeing the billowing smoke billowing from the private room where she lived, her face turned pale with "scar".
"This is... how did this happen?"
Seeing her suddenly appear, the happiest person is none other than Qin Taifu.
After the ups and downs of mood, Qin Taifu took a deep breath, and when he came to Guan Shuzhu, his voice was trembling with fear.
"Princess Changle, you...you are fine if you have nothing to do.
The old man thought something happened to you."
Guan Shuzhu ignored him, but looked at the blackened private room that had been burned, and asked him with a look of pale lips, "Inside, can the people inside be rescued?"
"The people inside?" Qin Taifu was confused, "Isn't that the private room where you live, the princess? Who else?"
"Li Xi, the adopted daughter of Prince Li.
After noon, she went to find the princess to drink some wine and talk to the princess.
Seeing that she was drunk, the princess let her rest in the room.
Originally, I wanted to order the maidservants to get hangover soup, but remembering that the maidservants hadn't had their lunch yet, this princess personally went to the small kitchen of your Taifu's mansion and ordered the servants to make some hangover soup.
Why did such a mistake happen in such a short time? "
Compared with the fact that Guan Shuzhu was burned to death inside at first, when he knew that the person trapped inside was the righteous daughter of Prince Li's mansion, Taifu Qin was not so flustered.
She's just a righteous daughter, not Prince Li's own blood.
Even if he really died here, it would at most make the bad relationship between Prince Li's Mansion and his Taifu's Mansion even worse.
But even though he thought so in his heart, he still had to do the hard work on the surface.
Qin Taifu narrowed his pupils slightly, and asked the servants who were still stunned to join the firefighting team.
"Hurry up, hurry up, we must rescue Miss Li!!"
Brothers and sisters Li Jian and Li Rou, when they heard that the person trapped in the private room was Li Xi, different expressions instantly appeared on their faces.
Li Jian was very nervous, as if he was going to rush into the fire.
As for Li Rou, she was gloating.
Seeing Li Jian like this, he stretched out his hand and grabbed him: "Brother, the fire is dangerous. There are no servants fighting the fire now. If something happened to you in the past, how should I explain to my father?"
When the fire was discovered, it was already relatively large, so it was extremely strenuous to put out the fire right now.
But fortunately, there are many guests who came to the Taifu Mansion to participate in the poetry and elegance meeting. Most of the guests brought a lot of servants. With the concerted efforts of the large number of servants, it took about half an hour for the fire to be considered complete. off.
The body of "Li Xi" was also carried out by several servants whose faces were stained with black ash.
The scorching was so severe that one could only see a discolored and broken jade pendant lying on the scorched body of "Li Xi".
Li Jian and Li Rou both recognized that jade pendant, it was the best Hetian jade that Prince Li personally gave to Li Xi after she came to Prince Li's mansion.
After arriving here, it is basically certain that this corpse belongs to Li Xi.
Seeing this, Grand Tutor Qin went up in time and sighed, "This matter is indeed the responsibility of the Grand Tutor's House, and I will definitely give you Prince Li's House a satisfactory answer.
It has only rained a few days ago, and the weather is not dry, so it is unlikely that the water will flow by itself.
Even if you walk in the water by yourself, there will not be such a big fire.
Presumably someone did it on purpose. "
Guan Shuzhu was waiting for Qin Taifu's words, and pursed his lips tightly when he heard the words: "I hope Qin Taifu will investigate this matter thoroughly, if the princess really doesn't know how to explain to the dead Li Xi .”
When he said this, Guan Shuzhu glanced at Lubo who was standing beside Qin Fu, and then quickly looked away.
Wuhu, someone guessed right hhh
