I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 108 A Strange Fire
Zhao Xi figured it out, and the father should have asked about it from Mrs. Zhang, so it was natural for the father and son to meet again the next day.

Zhao Xi captured it carefully, the feeling with his father has not changed at all, it is truly the same as before.

"Xi'er, Bao Zheng is upright, and Zhao Gai is honest and honest. If this matter is entrusted to the two of you, the truth will surely come to light. Daddy don't worry, so should you."

This is not a later life, it is normal for a father to say something slightly apologetic to his child.

This is the Song Dynasty, not to mention the emperor, even ordinary people, the elders did not apologize to the younger generation.

Although the old man was stating the facts and trying to calm himself down, Zhao Xi still felt his father's apology for yesterday's attitude from between the lines.

Dad is a good man, being an emperor... is not cruel enough.

"Daddy, my son listens to my father. My son is just worried that this matter will bother my father, but my son is too old and knowledgeable to share his worries."

Zhao Zhen stroked Zhao Xi's head, only to realize that his son was really not a child anymore, he was almost as tall as him.

And the bones of his body... are much stronger than his own, and he should really look like Taizu Taizong, not like himself, very weak.

Bao Zheng and Zhao Gai still have a good way of investigating the case. While sending people to the deserted hometown, they began to interrogate the people who were thrown into the government office by the guard camp.

Under the three trees, why worry about not recruiting.This is the most direct method, so, no matter monks, Taoists or idlers, everyone has said everything they can say.

Too many unsolved cases were dug out in a short time, and the pushing officials of Kaifeng Mansion were too busy, so they had to transfer people from the criminal punishment department to be responsible for those old cases.

At the same time, too many city foxes and rats were involved, and they were all concentrated in the cave.Kaifeng Mansion is busy recruiting groups of idlers in the government office again.

I forgot about the wave that the guards cleaned up. After the Kaifeng mansion found it, they were almost starved to death.

Who would have thought that it would take such a long time, and no one would have thought that with the practice of tying their thumbs behind their backs, this group of idlers could only linger in the underground cave, and then gnaw some food with their mouths underneath. Eat messy food.

It’s not that no one wanted to run, tried, but couldn’t escape at all, the entrance of the cave was blocked, and they had to use their hands, but they were all tied with their thumbs, and they couldn’t untie the tough and thin knots even if they helped each other.

Zhao Xi was stunned when he heard about it... Is this okay?Anyway, it's a gangster, that's the level?
After the matter is handed over, there is no need to care about the husbands, as well as Zhao Xi and his son, just wait for the result.

Therefore, even if it was right, it was never mentioned again.Even if the old man really wants to know clearly, he has to hold back, it's only been two days...

It just rained yesterday, which finally made the scorching day a bit cooler.

In Zhao Xi's current East Palace, there is no hostess with a bare spoon, only some elderly servants.

It is said that he is getting old, but Zhao Xi seems to be in the right age, only in his 30s and [-]s.

In this era, it is already considered very old, and it has already returned to the age when it will no longer be favored.

The reason why they sent a group of court ladies of such an advanced age was also because they were worried that Zhao Xi would not be able to control himself, which would lead to things that shouldn't happen.

Twelve or thirteen years old...will it?Really know, in the market, I heard that there are many girls who are ordered by the twelfth-three scourges.

Zhao Xi seems to have grown up too.

Sitting in the yard without lighting candles, just facing the cool breeze and looking at the starry sky... This is Zhao Xi's favorite way of resting.

"Is that... water? Water in the city?"

It must have been flooded.The fire was so bright that it felt like half the sky was dyed red.Still not far from the imperial city.

"Go! Take a look."

Zhao Xi yelled and walked quickly towards the direction of the fire.What he said to have a look at is to look at the palace wall, but it doesn't mean that he can look at the edge of the fire.

This is still on his side of the East Palace. If he needs to pass through the entire imperial city, he can only watch it in the courtyard of his East Palace.

The palace wall had to be seen clearly. It was really not far from the palace wall. It looked like a large courtyard, and the whole courtyard seemed to be set on fire.

"Your Highness, it seems that that place is the courtyard of the Fourth Prince of Runan..."

The guard in front of the temple seems to have seen it before, and he looks a little familiar. He should be one of the people who accompanied Cao Lin to worship the ancestors.Otherwise, I wouldn't talk about it with myself.

"Zhao Zongyong?"

"Return to Your Highness, that's right."

Alas, I am a prince, and I am not as good as a prince.Everyone has another courtyard, and my East Palace is deserted. With the reward of a lot of money, these servants are loyal, but none of them dare to talk to me.

The so-called other courtyard is outside the main house, that is, outside the Runan Palace, which belongs to... this should belong to Zhao Zongyong's house.

In this kind of house, you can do whatever you want, not to mention raising an outside room, even calling friends and calling for random things, no one cares.

Maybe in this yard, this Zhao Zongyong will raise...

No, Zhao Xi is also bored like a widow, growing up a bit, and thinking about messy things.At this time, think about it... It only rained yesterday, and it is said that it is not a dry environment, so how could there be water?And still burnt the whole yard down.

"Li Xian, go out and inquire and see what's going on at the scene of the fire."

Thinking of some possibilities, Zhao Xi came down from the palace wall and arranged for Li Xian directly.

The gate of the palace is closed tightly, and it is impossible to get out.Zhao Xi also obeyed, but his east palace has always had that secret side door.

Zhao Xi has been waiting, waiting for Li Xian to come back and report.He was a little annoyed, even when the maid came to serve in the study, he directly refused.

Let them do what they should, don't bother themselves.

What can they do?It is to serve the prince...

"Your Highness, it is indeed Zhao Zongyong's other courtyard. The fire has destroyed all the houses in the entire courtyard from the beginning. The people in the courtyard have no time to escape."

"The patrolling can be regarded as a quick response, but the water truck can't reach the yard. The four or five roads leading to the other courtyard are all blocked, and no one can pass."

"The fire was too big, and the neighbors around helped put out the fire, but buckets of water didn't work at all for such a big fire. Then they all burned down."

Li Xian came back, and this is the situation at the scene...the fire is gone.

Zhao Xi felt something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

The weather, the courtyard, the identity of the prince of Runan, and the roadblocks that prevent the waterwheel from approaching... all reveal strange things.

Besides myself, who else has such a big resentment towards that uncle's family, and can even arrange such a big scene?

Now, Qian Mingyi is afraid that his skin is not just lost.

Sure enough, the next morning, before anything was said, the cousin burst into tears...

In a big fire, not only the courtyard was burned, even Zhao Zongyong was burned to death...

This... This is going to be a big trouble.

Although the court doesn't care about the clan relatives, it is definitely not a trivial matter for the clan relatives who died unexpectedly.
