Princess, the lord has come to beg for marriage again!

Chapter 989 House flowers do not have the fragrance of wild flowers.

The two officials were so frightened that their faces paled and they collapsed to the ground.

Just now the prince pointed out that the fire prevention measures were not good, and a fire broke out. Didn't this kill them!
"Wang, wang, lord, I, I..."

Trembling for a long time, did not spit out a complete sentence.

Jun Qingchen and Dugu Xuejiao looked at each other, put their hands behind their backs, and let out a cold snort.

"Why don't you hurry up and notify your deputy commander and ask him to deal with the fire quickly. If someone dies, can you take responsibility?"

The two nodded hurriedly, supported each other to stand up, and staggered away.

Dugu Xuejiao looked at the backs of the two men in distress, and the corner of her mouth slightly hooked.

"Brother Qingchen, the show is about to begin, let's go too."

Jun Qingchen nodded, took her hand, and walked slowly towards the place where the fire broke out.

In order to leave enough time for the event to ferment, the two walked not fast, and even took the time to look at the surrounding lanterns.

By the time the two of them got to the vicinity, they had already circled three times inside and outside three times. They were surrounded tightly, and the crowd around them were discussing a lot.

"What's going on here? Why did it suddenly catch fire?"

"Yes, it happens that such a secluded house is in an alley. If it wasn't for the fire, who would have noticed it?"

"It looks like a private house bought by a rich man. I haven't seen many people coming in and out in the past. Most of them can only hear the sound of carriages at night."

"Tsk tsk, it's so mysterious and sneaky. Someone has raised a lover here. He definitely doesn't want the tigress at home to know."

"It's very reasonable, but it's okay, it's just that the house is on fire, and the surrounding area is fine. It's considered that evil will be rewarded with evil. If you fool around outside, you will have to pay it back one day."

"Ah, get out of the way! The Bingma Division is here!"

Dugu Xuejiao and Jun Qingchen were crowded in the crowd, not conspicuous, they only glanced a few times with interest.

The two officials who ran away before have returned, and brought the deputy commander who just took office.

Jia Guoxing walked at the front with cold sweat on his forehead, followed by more than a dozen officials with ugly expressions.

Today is the Duanyang Festival, and something happened at such a time, and I couldn't cover it up even if I wanted to.

If it gets out, can this head be kept!
Jia Xingguo had just been promoted from below. He had been the deputy commander for less than a month, and he was very angry and helpless when he encountered such a difficult situation.

I just prayed secretly, I just hope that no one will die.

The most important thing is that the two pale-faced subordinates also said that the regent is coming, just in time for this matter, it is really bad luck for eight lifetimes!
"Where is the prince?"

As soon as Jia Xingguo got close, he asked his subordinates to separate the surrounding crowd and rush to put out the fire.

He looked around, feeling very anxious.

The officer who ran to call for someone before stepped forward and pointed in one direction.

"My lord, the prince is standing there."

Jia Xingguo followed his fingers to look over, and suddenly met a pair of cold eyes, his legs were so frightened that he almost knelt down.

He couldn't care about anything else, so he hurried forward, and was about to kneel down when Jun Qingchen stopped him.

"Stand up and answer, there are too many people around, there is no need to cause a commotion."

Jia Xingguo stood beside him with soft legs, like an angry little daughter-in-law, from time to time secretly wiped his cold sweat with a handkerchief.

"Is the fire under control?"

"It has already been put out by someone. The little one just observed it, and it should be fine."

"Have you found out whose private house it is?"

"I heard reports from two of my subordinates. Before the younger one came, he brought the owner registration books of all the houses in this alley."

It was not unreasonable for Jia Guoxing to stand out from so many people and be promoted to deputy commander.

He is very smart, and he is tactful and quick-witted.

As soon as he heard the name of the regent, he guessed that he might be questioned. In order to show that he was doing his duty, he thought of all the things that might happen in such a short period of time.

Holding the booklet in both hands, he handed it over carefully, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the young man with red lips and white teeth next to Jun Qingchen, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked away.

Jun Qingchen took the booklet, flipped through it casually, and couldn't hear any emotion in his voice.

"Did Deputy Commander Jia see it before he came?"

Jia Guoxing shook his head hastily.

"As soon as the lower official heard that something happened here, he rushed over without stopping. He only had time to bring the brochure, but didn't have time to look through it."

Jun Qingchen snorted coldly, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"It is recorded in the brochure that the house that caught fire belongs to Xu Shangshu, do you know?"

When Jia Guoxing heard the word "Xu Shangshu", he almost fainted from fright, and his expression changed suddenly.

"This this……"

Xu Yi'an is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, while Du Shaocong is the minister of the Ministry of Rites. He is Du Shaocong's immediate boss.

And his immediate boss is Du Shaocong's brother Du Shaoyuan, and the inextricable relationship among them is like a spider web that can entangle people to death.

In the officialdom, if you don't handle these relationships well, you don't know how you will die.

They all said that they should not look at the monk's face but at the Buddha's face. If they did something wrong and offended Du Shaocong, it would be tantamount to offending their immediate superior.

What if Du Shaoyuan gave him small shoes?It was hard for him to get to this position!

One side is the threat from the immediate boss, and the other side is the coercion from the regent, neither of them can afford to offend.

Although Jun Qingchen didn't speak, he watched his every move from the corner of his eyes, and every expression was caught in his eyes, as if he had already guessed what he was thinking.

"As long as you answer truthfully, sometimes you think too much, but you get trapped in it, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Deputy Commander Jia is so smart, don't get distracted, maybe you can think about it from another angle.

You should know, if something happened to Xu Yi'an, who would be the biggest winner?Who is most likely to take his place? "

The light in Jia Guoxing's eyes flashed away, and his heart was touched, a little inconceivable.

What does the prince mean by this?Is it implying that Xu Shangshu is about to fall?
Thinking deeper, why is it so coincidental that the house catches fire when there are the most people?
There are so many houses in the alley, why only Xu Shangshu's private house caught fire?

Could it be that someone did it on purpose, just to bring down Xu Shangshu?

In just a split second, several thoughts flashed through Jia Guoxing's mind, and his voice became much firmer.

"Returning to the lord, I do know that there is Xu Shangshu's private house in this alley, but I don't know that the house that caught fire tonight belongs to Xu Shangshu."

Jun Qingchen's thin lips curled slightly, and he casually threw the booklet to him.

"Okay, hurry up and see how the fire is going, and investigate why the house caught fire and whether there are any casualties."

Just as Jia Guoxing was about to leave, he heard Leng Youyou's voice again.

"By the way, there are so many people around watching the fun, if someone accidentally recognizes Xu Shangshu..."

He didn't finish his sentence, just clicked.
