Princess Fuyao

Chapter 25 Arson
In the evening, Guo Bin sent out three more sentries, increasing the alert area by more than one mile, but it was very peaceful for a few days, and it was New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye.General Guo sent someone to bring a sheep, ten catties of pork belly, flour, cabbage, radish, onion, ginger, garlic, etc., and ten jars of wine.

"Didn't the Guo family send stewards to bring us frozen buns and dumplings yesterday?"

Lian Hui grinned: "How can those things count as New Year's Eve? The general must think it's not enough." He looked at the wine jar with bright eyes.

Fuyao glared at him fiercely: "Don't think about drinking, the general certainly doesn't know that we have caused trouble, we should be more cautious."

Lian Hui's face was full of regret, Fuyao couldn't bear it, and looked at the sheep: "Let's eat mutton."

"What is hot-boiled mutton?" Lian Hui's curiosity was aroused, and he no longer entangled in drinking.

"Where did you get the shabu-shabu? There's no charcoal." Guo Bin said with a frown.

"Go to the kitchen and bring their big iron basin for kneading. It's right in the middle of the room. Hang the basin up, and it's the same for burning firewood underneath." Fuyao suggested.

When Guo Bin thought about it, the brothers gathered around the fire and each served a big bowl, and he became happy, and immediately sent someone to carry it out.
Fuyao said everything he could think of. In the evening, the mutton was slaughtered, and about ten catties of meat were cut into slices. A basket of radish and cabbage was also washed out, white flour was kneaded and noodles were rolled out, and the soup made from the bones of the mutton was very fragrant. After a busy afternoon, everyone was hungry, and saliva was pouring out of their mouths.

The first batch of guards was He Zhihui and his group. Each person had a big bowl of sheep bones sprinkled with salt.

The rest of the people sat around the big iron basin, and the fire under it made the soup in the basin gurgling and splashing. Dip it into the bowl and put it in your mouth.

Lian Hui looked at Fuyao nervously, seeing her squinting her eyes flatteredly, with an extremely happy expression on her face, he quickly followed suit.

Among the dozen or so people, only Fuyao and Guo Bin had eaten shabu-shabu, and the rest of them were immediately overwhelmed by the deliciousness of the mutton as soon as they ate it. The three of them cut it all afternoon, and the mutton slices of more than ten catties came out in more than an hour. The clock will see the end.

"Don't just eat meat, white radish helps digestion, eat some noodles if you're not full." Fuyao said as he put the noodles into the soup at the bottom of the pot. White radish, these guys all eat a lot and fast, white radish helps digestion.

"Fuyao, you're so good at eating. I've heard of people making mutton into soup and eating meat, but I've never seen it cooked like this."

Huang He stroked his chubby belly, beckoned and led a few people to stand at the door, waiting for the sweat to disappear before putting on his coats and going to change the guard.The more holidays there are, the more we cannot relax in terms of safety.

Guo Bin walked over and changed his clothes, he was going to check the sentry.

There is no moon, and no stars. Once a person goes out and walks far away, he is completely submerged in darkness. If it weren't for Guo Bin's high martial arts skills, Fuyao would really worry about him walking alone.

The people in the room were full, and they were lying on the big kang in a mess. They always slept in the dark, and today it was the end of You hour, and they were already sleepy.

Fuyao picked up the embers from the fire in the center of the room with an iron dustpan and poured water into the kang hole, and then he was relieved.

Chen Qiangrui buckled a large bowl on the edge of the Kang, put his ears to the bottom of the bowl, and leaned on it, closing his eyes and snoring slightly.

Guo Bin didn't come back for a long time, Chen Qiangrui suddenly raised his head and looked at Fuyao who was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed...

The fifth prince wanted to compete with Guo Bin and the others, but he was very busy year after year. After the tenth day of the first lunar month, he was finally able to leave the palace, so he hurriedly brought people to the Guo family's Zhuangzi. Something was wrong, and he couldn't remember what the problem was for a while, but when he walked in, he realized that the house where Guo Bin and the others lived was gone.

"What's going on?" Looking at the scorched black ground, the fifth prince thought of something, his heart twitched, and his face turned pale.

"Go quickly, let's go back quickly, no one should tell anyone what happened today, do you hear me?"

The eunuchs and guards who followed were frightened by his appearance, and quickly agreed.

Thinking of twenty lively teenagers in their teens who might be buried in the sea of ​​fire like this, the Fifth Prince was very frightened. He had no one to look after him in the palace. Although his aunt was a queen, she had no time to take care of him. Zhao Biyun was a little sensible. After that, he was cautious everywhere, lest he would get into trouble.

He didn't expect to get into such trouble just for practicing martial arts.

When he returned to the palace, he didn't know if he was too worried. The fifth prince had a fever the next day, and the nurse who served him sent someone to report the incident to the queen.This is the Queen's order. She has no time to care about it, but she still needs to know what happened to her nephew.

"Yun'er was still in good spirits that morning. I ate breakfast with the Tenth Prince at my place. Why did she get sick after going out for a trip? What did the imperial doctor say?"

"The imperial doctor said he was frightened." The nanny replied in a low voice, "The servants asked, but they refused to say what happened."

Zhao Biyun will be fifteen soon, and when the time comes to get married and leave the palace to open a government office, it will be the crown prince's help. The empress used to neglect her nephew, but now she is trying to make up for it, trying to get closer to her nephew.Since she could think of this, how could the opponent not?To think of a way to get rid of Zhao Biyun, a motherless child, is to behead a minion of the prince.

The queen sent her confidant eunuch Xiaogui to ask what happened.

The little eunuch next to Zhao Biyun, seeing the celebrity in front of the empress, had already knelt tremblingly and did whatever they were told to do. They narrated what happened that day.

"Someone burned the Guo family's Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city?"

"We only saw that it was burned. As for how it was burned, we don't know. The Fifth Prince probably encountered a ghost and was frightened."

Xiaogui asked Zhao Biyun and Guo Bin about the whole process of their relationship, and then went back to the queen.

"It's possible that the Third Prince will take revenge because of his loss, not against His Highness the Fifth Highness." Xiaogui told the Queen his speculation.

"There is also the sixth prince..."

The third child and the sixth child are very threatening to the crown prince. When the queen heard this, she could kill two birds with one stone. She was so happy that she almost woke up from her dream.

The house burned down, but I don't know if someone died. Has the Guo family reported it to the police?The queen asked people to inquire about it, but the result of the city defense department's investigation was that a group of teenagers were cooking with a fire in the house, eating meat and drinking alcohol around the fire, and when they got drunk, they accidentally knocked over the wine jar, causing a fire.Firecrackers were lit everywhere on New Year's Eve, and the people on Guojiazhuangzi kept watch until half the night, and they were all sleepy. No one noticed the fire here, and it caused a disaster.

The more impeccable things looked, the more it proved the strength and difficulty of the opponent.The queen became more and more convinced that the fire was deliberately set on fire.

A group of teenagers, they have no income, where did they get the wine?
General Guo is strict in running the army. These children are usually very well-behaved. How could they dare to get so drunk?

The Guo family said that they sent people to deliver some snacks, steamed stuffed buns and cooked meat, but did not send raw food, for fear that these children would not know how to cook, but the people in the Zhuangzi said that all the ones delivered in the morning of the New Year's Eve were cooked, and at noon they were all cooked. It was delivered once, but it was raw, with wine, meat and vegetables.

Zhuangtou was afraid that people would not believe him, so he took out a jar of wine from his home, saying that those children gave him a jar of wine, and the alcohol was so strong that he was drunk after only a few cups.

Obviously this wine has been tampered with!Who sent it?
