During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

At night, after everyone was asleep, a spark flew into the courtyard.

Seeing the light of the fire, the boy sleeping next to the kitchen woke up immediately. He thought it was a fire and subconsciously wanted to scream. But before he could scream, Hong Da ran out from the side room of the main house and ran out from the yard. I scooped a bucket of water into the water tank and put it out directly.

As the two boys watched Hong Da put out the fire, they couldn't help feeling surprised and puzzled.

They all knew that Hong Da was a man of few words, but they didn't expect that he could take such decisive action while half asleep and half awake.

Wei Liang and Liu Xiangyang were both awakened. Seeing this, they were a little trembling with fear, and even more angry: "They are so brave and want to burn us to death. Is there any way to do this?"

Jiang Qian was also angry, but he was only angry in his heart and didn't show it on his face.

This matter is by no means a simple fire, but a threat and warning to them.

Jiang Qian is not going to sit still and wait for death this time. He is no longer the little scholar he was before who could be bullied at will. Even without His Majesty's appreciation, he is not a lamb to be slaughtered.

This time he wanted to let those people know that they had messed with the wrong person.

Jiang Qian asked Wei Liang and Liu Xiangyang to go back to the room to pack their valuables. At the same time, he asked Hong Da to simply pack his things. He didn't want any gold or silver, mainly books.

Money can be earned, but it will be gone if the books are gone.

When Wei Liang and Liu Xiangyang saw this, they admired him but did not have his courage.

By the time they finished cleaning up, it was already an hour later, and it would be daybreak in two hours.

"Brother Jiang, what do you want to do?"

Wei Liang saw Jiang Qian pick up the torch. His face seemed to have been whipped by a whip, and the haze was terrifying, as if a storm was coming.

"lean back."

Jiang Qian took a deep breath, his eyes filled with fire.

Hong Da carried two bundles and pulled the four people back.

Jiang Qian stood in front of the house, holding a scimitar and dagger, and engraved the words "Guozixue" on the handle of the torch.

The moment the torch was lit, the firelight shone on his face. The Jiang Qian who could be bullied at will no longer existed.

Wei Liang's first reaction was that something big was going to happen. Before he could stop him, Jiang Qian had already lit the firewood pile in the corner, and the fire gradually became bigger.

Liu Xiangyang and Wei Liang finally understood what he wanted to do, and while they were shocked, there was a bit of admiration in their eyes.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, but they did not run out in a hurry, but stood in the yard and admired it.

They seemed to have seen the panic and panic in the eyes of the guys from Guozixue.

The burning of this fire is destined to set off a huge storm.

A trace of determination flashed in Jiang Qian's eyes.

When the patrolling soldiers discovered that there was a fire here, they hurriedly sounded the gong to call for people to put out the fire.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, lighting up the night sky and engulfing everything.

When people from Dali Temple rushed to the scene, the fire was out of control and the entire courtyard was enveloped in raging flames. They quickly called in more people, hoping to control the fire.

After dawn, through everyone's efforts, the fire was finally under control.

Black marks and scorched bricks and tiles are the remnants of the fire.

The Minister of Dali Temple rushed to the scene quickly. He carefully observed the surrounding situation. This was supposed to be an ordinary fire, but an eye-catching torch was found in the fire, with several large characters engraved on it: Studying Guozi.

The Minister of Dali Temple frowned, he was confused about the origin of this torch.

He asked several people how they got the torch pokes, but received unanimous answers.The six claimed that someone threw torches in in the middle of the night in an attempt to burn them to death.

The Dali Temple Qing glanced at Jiang Qian with some sympathy.

Jiang Qian looked at it calmly.

Considering that His Majesty now likes Jiang Qian very much, the Minister of Dali Temple decided to place Jiang Qian and others in the government office and enter the palace with torches.

Dali Temple is responsible for the public security and criminal cases in the capital. Nearly half of the cases are related to Guozixue students. This time it has caused big trouble. At least for the next six months, Dali Temple can rest.

The emperor who was practicing calligraphy in the study was thinking about whether what Jiang Qian said was feasible. He was hesitant and suddenly asked Eunuch Fulin: "Fu Lin, do you think Jiang Qian's style of doing things is very similar to that of the prince?"

Eunuch Fulin looked at His Majesty in surprise, realizing that the prince His Majesty mentioned was not the current prince. "I don't think so," he answered cautiously.

The emperor read the paper written by Jiang Qian over and over again, always feeling that the shadow of Luo Tingye was revealed between the lines.

However, this is not possible.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it." The emperor sighed softly.

Eunuch Fulin quickly served tea, "Your Majesty, don't you go to the Imperial Garden for a walk?"

Just as he was talking, a chamberlain hurriedly came in to report that the minister of Dali Temple asked to see him.

"Why is he here?" The emperor was not happy that Xiu Mu was disturbed.

Eunuch Fulin rolled his eyes and said, "Maybe it's the students from Guozixue who are causing trouble again!"

The emperor looked at Eunuch Fulin, "Do the students of Guozixue often make trouble?"

Eunuch Fulin patted his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I did this unintentionally."

"Answer me."

Eunuch Fulin said in embarrassment, "I heard that students of Guozixue often rely on their fathers, brothers and elders at home to do evil outside."

"It happens that their fathers are officials in the court again. Even if the commotion is big, the minister of Dali Temple does not dare to make a decision on his own. Your Majesty still remembers that the minister of Dali Temple came to the palace to ask for an audience a year ago for the sake of the Wang family and the Cui family. About children fighting.”

"I still remember that for three days in a row, there were people participating in the performance of the Minister of Dali Temple. His Majesty was furious and almost dismissed him."

After saying this, the emperor actually remembered it.

It is said that the children of the two families quarreled in class over an article, and then got into a fight after school. The matter got serious and several lives were lost, so it was reported to Dali Temple.

At that time, he also reprimanded the two families, but he forgot about the fact that the minister of Dali Temple was involved.

In the past, the emperor would not have thought too much, but now he is determined to rectify Guoxue. After thinking about it again and again, His Majesty said: "Let him come in."

"See Your Majesty."

"What happened?"

The minister of Dali Temple told the story about three Yuzhou Fuxue students who were almost burned to death, and also brought the three words "Guozixue" on the torch into the palace.

When the emperor saw the three words "Guozi Xue" with dragons and phoenixes dancing on the torch, he was so angry that he slapped the table and stood up.

"It's so courageous. Just because I praised those three students, they were so jealous that they even wanted to kill them."

"Your Majesty, it is not yet possible to determine whether this matter is true or false. It may be an accident."

The emperor sneered, "Accident? Do you think I don't know anything?"
