After marrying wrongly, I became the general's white moonlight

Chapter 242 Who Set the Fire
Wu Yi didn't speak any more, in Murong Qing's eyes, it was tacit agreement.

Murong Qing was a little surprised, after all, she was equivalent to witnessing the fire with her own eyes, the Empress's Zifu Palace was almost burnt down, leaving only a scorched wooden frame.

Unexpectedly, it was the general who set the fire.

Wu Yi didn't ask much at the time, the general had his own reasons for what he did.

"Why did the general do this?" Murong Qing asked with a frown.

Wuyi shook his head with a bitter face, "Ma'am, I don't know about this little one. The general didn't tell me the reason, but he just asked me to prepare fire pockets and some flammable things. After I prepared the things, I seemed to go to the direction of the palace." .”

The reason why Wu Yi became Liu Shen's apprentice is because he is well versed in the principle of keeping one's place and keeping one's own.

After hearing this, Murong Qing lowered his eyes to think, and after brainstorming, he suddenly remembered the terrifying possibility that he realized in the side hall of Huichun Palace.

Murong Qing said, "I see, you didn't tell anyone else about this."

"No, not many people know about this matter, Madam, you are the third one to know about it." Wuyi said solemnly.

"That's good, don't mention this matter again in the future."

Murong Qing's heart sank, Pei Mo hasn't come back yet, and the second prince has long been dissatisfied with Pei Mo, if the second prince finds out something, Pei Mo might not escape.

After Wu Yi promised, I originally wanted to leave, but seeing Madam's sullen look, I was a little soft-hearted, so I said, "Madam, don't worry, the general has his own way to deal with it, and the general will never do something for no reason, here In the past, whenever the general mentioned being the empress, he seemed disgusted..."

Wuyi's words stopped immediately, he raised his hand and patted his mouth, knelt down hurriedly and said, "Damn you, you dare to speculate on the general's mind, madam, don't take it to heart, these are all random guesses by the little one. "

People in high positions are afraid of people around them guessing their own thoughts. Even if the general seldom punishes his subordinates, he has been bullied since he was a child. Of course he knows about these undercurrents. It's good to kneel down and apologize.

Murong Qing's thoughts were fluctuating, but he still knelt down and helped Wuyi up and said, "Okay, get up first, I don't mean to blame you, as long as you work hard for the General's Mansion, the General and I will definitely not treat you badly." .”

It's not that she can't see Wu Yi's loyalty. Murong Qing has never made things difficult for those who are loyal to her.

But at this moment, her heart is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

She thought of her guess about who killed Concubine Ru. Could it be that Pei Mo knew something a long time ago, but due to the noble status of the queen in the palace, she did not dare to act rashly. It was not until today that she couldn't bear to attack the queen. ?

She also thought about whether the second prince's face, which was always cloudy and uncertain because he had no lifeblood, would take this opportunity to bite Pei Mo.

She never saw Pei Mo return home that night.

At Yinshi, Murong Qing couldn't bear the sleepiness anymore, so he went back to the wing room to rest, but he would open his eyes every half an hour, and then asked confusedly if the general had returned to the mansion?

The answer to every question is no, no one knows how worried she is.

For the first time, Murong Qing really felt what it means to live like a year.

The sun was rising, and Murong Qing couldn't wait any longer, so he decided to go to the palace to see the situation.

Just as she was getting ready to go, Ping'er's surprised voice came from outside the door, "Ma'am, the general is back!"

When the door was pushed open, Murong Qing looked back with a happy face.

The face of the person who came was tired from not sleeping all night, but his eyes were bright, and he looked at her with a gentle smile.

Murong Qing threw himself into Pei Mo's arms.

"General, if you don't come back, I will go to the palace to find you!"

Pei Mo took her into his arms, and gently sniffed the fragrance of her hair, feeling the exhaustion all over his body disappear in an instant.

"It made Madam worry, but it's all right now, the second prince can't do anything to me."

Seeing the general coming back, Ping'er was also happy, at least Madam didn't have to worry so much that she couldn't sleep all night, so she closed the door of the wing room with joy, letting the two people in the room be gentle.

Murong Qing remembered the business and asked, "General, did you set the fire in the empress's palace? Why did you do that?"

Pei Mo was surprised, "No, why does Madam think so?"

"Ah?" Murong Qing was confused, "Didn't Wu Yi say that the general set the fire?"

Pei Mo frowned, "I never said I would set fire to the queen's palace, how could I tell you that on Wuyi."

The more he thought about it, the more he didn't understand, so he called Wuyi to ask him face to face.

Wu Yi was trembling, and he was even more convinced that he had said the wrong thing because of his talkativeness.

But seeing Wu Yi's sincere confession, coupled with Murong Qing's tolerance, Pei Mo did not pursue Wu Yi's random guesses.

It turned out that this was all a misunderstanding.

"It turns out that the general ordered the fire to burn the imperial concubine's palace. It seems that Wu Yi is not to blame. I was preconceived. Wu Yi did not explicitly say that the general set fire to the empress's palace. The general should not blame you. him."

Murong Qing took Pei Mo's hand and said.

Pei Mo was not angry, but knew that she was so worried that she stayed up all night and felt distressed.

Murong Qing asked again, "Then why did the general set fire to the imperial concubine's palace?"

"Knowing that you won't come back unless you find some clues, I had no choice but to think of a way to make trouble, so that you have a chance to go to Huichun Palace to get clues. Only in this way, you will come back willingly."

Pei Mo spoke with a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone.

This made Murong Qing laugh, "It turns out that the general is for me, it seems that I have wrongly blamed the general, the general should not be born again, don't you think I am back?"

The fire in the queen's bedroom happened so suddenly that even Pei Mo himself didn't expect it.

He also said, "As soon as I sneaked into the palace, the Queen's palace was already on fire, and everyone in the palace was alarmed. Put on your clothes and come out to see you."

This is how this incident happened, but Murong Qing deduced from the information from the noble concubine that Rufei's death might be related to the queen, so he thought that Pei Mo also knew, so he wanted to set fire to the queen to take revenge.

"It turned out to be like this. Now the second prince doesn't dare to take the general."

Only then did Murong Qing feel relieved.

"Yeah." Pei Mo chuckled, "It doesn't matter who started the fire, as long as it has nothing to do with me."

Murong Qing nodded approvingly, "Yes, I don't know who is so bold, the queen's bedroom is almost burned down."

For some reason, Murong Qing felt that he seemed to have missed some important information.
