Chapter 478 What is the purpose?

A fire broke out in the palace, or burned down the palace where the prince lived, how could the emperor not be angry about such a big event?

The guards around did not dare to breathe, and the maids knelt on the ground, each face was dark, as if they had suffered a lot to fight the fire.

The emperor's face was gloomy, and his words were even more indifferent.

"Have you caught the assassin yet?"

Everyone shook their heads, but a father-in-law knelt down in front of him cautiously.

"Your Majesty, yesterday's assassin, who was very skilled in martial arts, broke in in the middle of the night and set His Royal Highness Seven's bedroom and main hall on fire while everyone was asleep. Fortunately, after His Royal Highness disappeared, there was no one in the palace, so there were no casualties. "

After a pause, he said slowly, "Fortunately, there are no other palaces nearby, and there is a hot spring pool in the backyard, so it didn't burn elsewhere, but..."

"But what?"

The emperor spoke coldly.

The father-in-law swallowed his saliva, and then said seriously: "However, none of the portraits of Princess Li in the palace are left..."

When the words fell, the people around lowered their heads even more.

At the same time, Nanyun Liangsheng and Nanyun Yiyi on the other side also boarded the carriage back early.

Leaving Li City mightily, the expressions of both of them were very calm, as if they were not affected by the fire at all.

Nanyun Yiyi's face was flat, she just thought that Dongli was getting more and more chaotic, and it would be good to go back at this time.

On the contrary, Nanyun Liangsheng was very happy, the corners of his lips were slightly raised along the way.

A Ci on the side was full of disdain, "The interior of Dongli is like Beimo. It is torn apart. In order to seize the throne, the princes even killed each other by all means. After they killed their mothers and escaped, they burned down their residences." , I really don’t know which prince’s handwriting it is.”

Nanyun Liangsheng raised his lips lightly, "Do you still need to guess? This King Li of Dongli protects his wife like his life. Recently, the fifth sister has suffered a lot of rumors because of those portraits. If it is not that King Li burned it to warn everyone Yeah, no one really believed it."

Hearing this, Ah Ci smiled slightly.

"If it's really Prince Li, then his actions are really stupid. How serious is the crime of setting fire to the palace? If he is found out, can he still be the crown prince?"

Nanyun Liangsheng sneered, "No matter who started the fire, anyway, the fire must have attracted everyone's attention. At this moment, there must be another force ready to move."

"Are you talking about the third prince?"

She raised her eyebrows, "Such a good opportunity, isn't it the point of their counterattack?"

"What the princess said is true."

Ah Ci lowered his head slightly, and said again: "No matter what the result is, and no matter how Dongli fights, anyway, for us, as long as the fifth princess sleeps here forever, that's enough."

As they left, the sky grew brighter.

And Liang Yin in Li Wang's mansion was also woken up early.

Yesterday, Luo Xiaoran came back very late, and today she hurried to the palace before dawn, and she was tossing around like this before her injury healed, she really didn't know how to take care of herself at all.

Liangyin woke up early, and heard all kinds of discussions, even Li Wang's mansion was chattering about the fire in the palace.

In fact, last night in a daze, she also heard Luo Xiaoran say that the palace was on fire, but she didn't pay much attention to it. She was no stranger to any major events happening in the palace today.

But hearing everyone's discussion, I couldn't help but opened the door and walked out.

As soon as she saw her go out, the maidservants outside immediately shut their mouths. She had a dignified face, and seeing the little painting at the door with her head bowed, she couldn't help feeling a little heavy in her heart.

"Has the murderer who set the fire last night been caught?"

Xiao Hua was slightly stunned, "Miss, how would we know such a thing? But to be able to set fire in the heavily guarded palace, his ability must not be ordinary people..."

"Where is the fire?"

Xiao Hua lowered her head, "It's the Seventh Prince..."

Liangyin's face darkened slightly, and she was suddenly shocked.

"Where is the seventh prince? Didn't he disappear for several days? Knowing that no one lives there, he went to burn it down. What is the purpose of the arsonist?"

Xiao Hua bit her lips anxiously, but walked back to the bedroom with Liang Yin, and then said very seriously:
"Miss, wasn't it rumored that the Seventh Prince secretly drew a lot of portraits of you? I heard that none of those portraits were left. Just thinking about it, you can tell that the arsonist was aiming at the portraits." Yes, but why did that person burn your portrait? This only affects you, and has no effect on others..."

"Specially burned my portraits? This is good, who did it? I want to thank him, so that people in the palace will not speak ill of me to those portraits all day long."

Seeing Liangyin's plain face, Xiaohua sighed with a headache.

"Hey, your heart is too big, what's the point? Aren't you afraid that the emperor will suspect you?"

After a pause, she continued: "Now people outside are guessing whether you secretly let someone burn it. His Highness rushed out when he heard the noise last night, because there was something related to you in that location." , at this moment, the emperor probably knows about it, and I'm afraid it will involve you again, so at this moment, you should avoid going out."

Hearing this, Liang Yin's expression became serious again.

"This is indeed a problem, and it is really a wave of unrest and another wave."

Xiao Hua looked melancholy, "So, let's wait for His Highness's news. He entered the palace early, so he will definitely be able to handle this matter well."

Hearing Luo Xiaoran, Liang Yin's face suddenly became more serious.

"He hasn't rested for a long time. He was injured in the first place. If he doesn't rest well, the injury will be even worse..."

Saying this, she couldn't help but patted her stomach meaningfully. If it wasn't for this little guy, she must be working hard with him at this time, right?

Now he does everything, but she is bored in the mansion every day, unable to do anything...

Probably guessing what she was thinking, Xiao Hua sighed again with a heavy heart.

"Hey, it's all for the sake of my little master. There are still a few more months left, miss, please bear with me, and let your highness take care of the outside affairs..."

Liangyin frowned, "But you can't really do nothing, right?"

"But there are too many people trying to harm you now, shouldn't the most important thing for you to do is stay in the mansion carefully?"

Xiao Hua looked serious, and said again: "Think about it, how much do you look forward to the arrival of the little master? Even everything about him, you are ready..."

When the words fell to this point, Liangyin opened her mouth, but was speechless in the end.

Yes, even Xiaohua knows that she should stay in the mansion well now, but is this really okay?

I always feel bored...

Today's sky is a bit gloomy, there is no rain, and there is no shadow of the sun.

On a no-man's land outside the palace, Luo Xiaoran's face was gloomy, holding a long sword.

Looking at the two people in front of them, there was a murderous look in their eyes.

"Ouyang Ziyu, the pavilion master of the Wuzhong Pavilion, you are indeed not an ordinary person. If this king hadn't asked someone to investigate carefully, you would have been deceived by you. Tell me, what is your purpose in coming to Dongli?"
