Chapter 124

"The He residence is on fire too, I'm sorry for the fire if I don't check it carefully." Mu Jinran blinked, knowing the reason for the fire in the He residence.

Gu Qingluo was startled.

It turned out that Xuanyuanji had been paying attention to the fire in Gu's house, and knew that she went to He's house to set fire.

She was finally relieved: "Then, there are two Laos."

"Miss Gu, rest assured to raise the baby, there will be good news tomorrow."

"Ah."

Mu Jinran left, Gu Qingluo looked at the boundless night and let out a long mouthful of foul breath.

It's time for the He family to fall...

Tonight's fire is the fire that He Feng created for himself!
As soon as Xuanyuanji intervened, she directly saved her from the next hard work.She just needs to wait for the good news at home now.

"Lord, General Gu will arrive in the capital tomorrow at the latest. Don't worry too much, our people will always protect you." Qingluan walked over and gave Gu Qingluo a hot soup lady.

"Well, it's almost over." Gu Qingluo smiled slightly.

If Mu Jinchen and the He family are brought down, the fate of the Gu family will be reversed, right?

----

At the foot of the emperor, the palaces of the two generals were set on fire overnight, and the entire capital was shaken.

Emperor Jing was furious, and ordered Xuanyuanji and Mu Jinran to investigate thoroughly overnight.

When he heard that the physical evidence had been searched from the He family, Emperor Jing jumped in anger and asked He Feng, "What's going on?"

"Your Majesty, I've been wronged!" He Feng knelt on the cold floor in front of the imperial court in agony, and until now he hadn't figured out who had stored kerosene in his house to frame him.

"You have been wronged? Could it be that Master Liu and Prince Chen put the kerosene in your house?" Emperor Jing scolded angrily.

It's not as bad as his wife and children, not to mention that the Gu family hasn't been convicted yet!

If there was a casualty in the Gu family last night, how would he explain to the Gu family and his son?How to stabilize Gu Jiajun's heart?
"I don't know who put the kerosene." He Feng glanced carefully at Xuanyuanji.

He and He Qinru did a clean job, and there was no kerosene left at home.Those two barrels of evidence were released by Gu Qingluo!

But he has no evidence...

He couldn't say that last night he watched Gu's house catch fire and didn't rescue him, could he?

"General He and Miss He were not at home when the fire broke out last night, where did you go in the middle of the night?" Xuanyuanji asked lazily.

He even changed into a comfortable sitting position on the big vermilion lacquer chair bestowed by the emperor!
Xuanyuanji is the only one in the world who can receive such treatment and dare to be so arrogant in front of the emperor!
He Feng loves and hates this monstrous power, when will he become a peak power holder like Xuanyuanji?
"Qinru misses her mother, and I wanted to accompany her out of the city to see her mother's former residence, but I saw the house was on fire halfway, so I hurried back." He Feng said.

"Ah……"

Xuanyuanji smiled softly, and the cold laughter was full of contempt of the king, "That's not what He Qinru said."

He Feng's complexion changed drastically, and he stuttered: "She may not dare to mention her mother to outsiders..."

"She mentioned it." Xuanyuanji said.

He Feng: ...

mentioned?

What did He Qinru say?
"She said..." Xuanyuanji dragged the end of the sentence meaningfully, but did not say the second half of the sentence.

He Feng's heart hung in his throat, he was so uncomfortable that he wanted to punch Xuanyuanji twice.

But he dare not!
He could only hold back, waiting for an answer.

"Okay, the confessions of your father and daughter don't match, which means that you are all lying." Xuanyuanji stood up from the big red lacquer chair and bowed slightly to Emperor Jing, "Your Majesty, the physical evidence was found from the He family. Please be enlightened by the emperor."

Emperor Jing's temples twitched and he shouted loudly: "He Feng, did you really do it?"

"I don't dare! If I set fire to it, how could I burn my own mansion down?" He Feng groaned inwardly, who was it that cost him thousands of dollars to hide kerosene in his house?

"Maybe it's trying to cover up?" Lord Liu said in a low voice.

"Lord Liu!" He Feng shouted angrily.

Mr. Liu shrank his neck and said, "I'm just a matter of fact..."

"Your Majesty, the fire in the He Mansion was discovered in a timely manner, and there was no loss. But the Gu family almost lost their lives." Mu Jinran came to report in time.

Emperor Jing's heartstrings tightened when he heard the words: "Is Mrs. Gu injured?"

"Miss Gu tried her best to protect her family, and she commanded well. No one was injured. However, five rooms of the Gu family were burnt down, and the property that has been sorted out has lost nearly a thousand taels." Mu Jinran handed over the list.

Emperor Jing took it over and looked at it again and again, and heaved a sigh of relief: "As long as people are fine! I will double the compensation for the lost money."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Mu Jinran bowed, "Old Madam Gu's Mansion asks His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the person who set the fire, and return justice to the Gu family."

"I'm checking."

Emperor Jing walked back and forth stroking his beard, the twelve bright pearls blinded his gaze, making it difficult to guess.

He Feng knelt on the ground, repeating again and again that it wasn't him who did it.

Mu Jinran asked: "Maybe General He can prove that you didn't keep the fire at home?"

"This..." He Feng thought for a while and said, "I know who let it go."

"Who?"

Emperor Jing stopped and asked.

Master Liu's heart beat violently, afraid that He Feng would say that he let it go.

The kerosene was found by his people, but people from Xuanyuanji were also present at that time!

"Gu Qingluo arranged for the people from Baimei Villa to do it." He Feng gritted his teeth.

"Gu Qingluo?" Emperor Jing frowned, and asked the commander in charge of guarding the Gu family, "Did Gu Qingluo leave the mansion last night?"

"No." The commander replied, "Miss Gu has been instigating people to put out the fire in the mansion, until the arrival of King Lin, Miss Gu was still in the mansion."

Mu Jinran said: "Yes."

"She can stay in the mansion and direct the people of Baimei Villa to do it." He Feng said.

This time, he must drag Baimei Villa in!

"But the fire in Gu's mansion is even bigger. Ms. Gu can't possibly burn down her own house, right?" Master Liu was speechless.

The female family members of the Gu family were so frightened that they howled like ghosts and howls, and many neighbors on the street heard it!
In contrast, it is more likely that He Feng set fire to cover up the crime himself!
"If you say that, the possibility of General He arsonizing himself is quite high." Mu Jinran smiled elegantly and extravagantly.The clear eyes have no desire and no desire.

Emperor Jing liked the handsome appearance of him who was indifferent to fame and fortune, and his mood improved after seeing him.

He stroked his beard and said, "The king of Lin is right. He Feng, you've been arguing again and again but you haven't got the point. If you can't produce strong evidence, I'm going to convict you."

"Your Majesty!" He Feng was startled and panicked, and directly performed a "pupil earthquake".

At this moment, Eunuch Xu came to report in a panic: "Your Majesty, General Gu has rushed back!"

"So fast?"

Emperor Jing and He Feng blurted out at the same time.

One is joy, one is surprise.

Eunuch Xu felt the joy of the emperor, and said with a smile: "General Gu was on his way day and night, and he went straight into the palace without even returning home."

"Please come in!" Emperor Jing said as he went out to greet him in person.

He Feng was so jealous that he was about to lose shape!

They are all generals from Dongzhou, he has never been treated like this...

But it doesn't matter, once Gu Yong returned to court, the arson case seemed to be trivial.

As long as Gu Yong's crime of rebellion is confirmed, the entire Gu family will be ruined!
