There are many dangers in the fire scene. If that person wants to kill Li Shao, he just needs to put him next to the fire.
A tragedy occurred in a main hall, and Li Shao died in the secondary room. Even if the position was strange, it would be judged as a child who panicked and fell.
But nothing happened to Li Shao.
"If you don't want Li Shao's life, do you just want to attack the late empress?" Lin Yunyan questioned. As soon as the words came out, she shook her head, "If I were him and had the drug that knocked out Eunuch Cai, I would kill Li Shao as well.
I fainted, then went into the east room and lit a fire to make sure everything was safe... Huh?"
At this point, she felt something was wrong even more.
"If he wants to kill the late queen, he has to ensure that the people in the east room will not be awakened by the fire." Lin Yunyan frowned and said what she thought of. This way she could organize her thoughts and give Xu Jian some inspiration. "
Could it be that he knew that sleeping incense was burned inside? He first stunned the people in Dongshoujian, and then came out to attack the people in Dongjijian?
Don't let Li Shao scream because you don't want my mother to hear?
Then he should go to Dongshao to light a fire instead of causing Li Shao to knock over the oil lamp..."
This is very strange.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt something didn't make sense.
Is it because they haven't grasped the true nature of the matter, or is it because the monkey-faced eunuch is not particular about his behavior and sets fires as he pleases? On the contrary, they are deeply disturbed by it and have to find a reasonable way of thinking for the other party here?
Thinking of this, Lin Yunyan couldn't help but shook her head in confusion.
If they think too much in the end, that's really...
"Can it be considered a kind of 'a scholar meets a soldier'?" Lin Yunyan laughed at herself, "We treat him as a scholar, but in fact the monkey-faced eunuch is a soldier?"
After saying that, she heard Xu Jian next to her also laugh.
Somewhat helpless and powerless, after laughing, the two of them started sorting things out again.
I'm looking for answers to old things. I'm not afraid of thinking too much, but I'm afraid of not thinking thoroughly enough.
Xu Jian picked up the teapot and gave Lin Yunyan more tea, gesturing for her to moisten her throat.
He himself took a sip, the warm tea went down his throat, his eyebrows were lowered, looking calm and peaceful under the oil lamp.
Lin Yunyan held the tea cup with both hands and looked at Xu Jian intently.
She couldn't move her eyes away, and she knew very well that it was Xu Jian's stability that kept her eyes fixed on him for a moment.
After getting along for a long time, Lin Yunyan also knew Xu Jian's temperament.
This person is really cold when he is cold, and when he is angry and angry, the whole Jinluan Palace wants to laugh but dare not laugh, holding it in for life, but aside from those external appearances, Xu Jian's mind is calm and upright.
It comes from the many years of teachings of the old master Guo, and also from the hardships he has endured day after day while practicing martial arts since he was a child.
The perseverance deep in his heart enables Xu Jian to quickly put away his panic and get on the right track when encountering unexpected events.
This perseverance not only created Xu Jian, but also deeply influenced Lin Yunyan, making her involuntarily believe that no matter how many hardships and mist they faced, as long as they were together with Xu Jian, the two of them could overcome obstacles.
With Xu Jian by his side, tonight's so many unexpected and puzzling news seemed less confusing.
"What we are thinking about now is not only what we will think about, but also my father-in-law and the Holy Father will think about it in the future." Xu Jian put down the tea cup slowly and spoke in a calm tone, "I was in the imperial study room just now. Time was still too tight. I had some ideas, but I didn't
comprehensive.
Your Majesty, when you have free time, you will naturally think of these things. If you listen more and discuss more, even the three cobblers can gain a lot.
The Holy Father and his father-in-law didn't think of this before. They didn't know that the fire started in Dongci Room. They thought it started in Dongshi Room. People were fainted by the smoke in their sleep. Until mother-in-law came over, they could only hold Nian in his arms.
Young Li Shao..."
Lin Yunyan nodded.
How else to say that the clues are important?
Even the tiniest clue may change the final answer, let alone such critical information as the origin of the fire.
Originally, it would not be so difficult to determine the location of the fire in a fire, but the problem was that there were two barrels of lamp oil stored in the ear room. Although they did not explode, the fire burned more and more fiercely, and the scene was a mess.
It was also because of the two barrels of oil that whether the father accepted it as an accident or the Holy Master believed it was a murder, they all determined that the fire started in Dongshaojian.
Until tonight, this point was overturned by Li Shao's testimony.
Many previous judgments will also be changed accordingly.
"Judging from previous judgments," Lin Yunyan dipped her finger in some water and drew a few strokes on the table, only distinguishing the middle room, the east room, and the east room. "Mother went all the way east, passing through the second room.
A little later.
The fire started a little while ago, and this is the most dangerous place.
She picked up the unconscious Li Shao, took advantage of the fire not blocking the way, and returned the same way, from the east room to the middle room, then out of the palace door, put him down and returned to the fire scene.
But this time, the fire inside was even greater, and Grandma Liao chose to open the window, but she failed, and my mother and the late Empress also missed the opportunity to escape."
Xu Jian looked at the table and said, "My father-in-law mentioned something to me, but he didn't go into detail. I won't know the details until I read the case file tomorrow, but it sounds like your idea makes sense."
Lin Yunyan responded softly and put aside the speculation based on the fire in Dongchao Room: "Now, it's time to think about what my mother did when there was a fire in Dongchao Room."
In other words, Li Shao's exact location when his mother rescued him.
She thought so and asked Xu Jian this way.
Xu Jian thought for a moment and said: "The middle room or the east room."
Lin Yunyan listened to his explanation carefully.
"The Holy One mentioned that the novice guarding Li Shao said that the windows were closed, and the mother-in-law rushed out of the palace door with Li Shao in her arms, and then went back." Xu Jian pointed her finger on the table and said, "In the middle room
If you find someone, just take them out. There is no question about doing so.
In the Toji Room where the fire broke out, it burned first and the fire was the strongest. It makes sense that the mother-in-law picked up Li Shao and turned around and ran out through the middle room, which was still safe.
When in danger, it is human nature to choose the nearest exit.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If she had made the opposite choice and rushed into the East Room and saw the dazed Queen and the nuns inside, would she still
Shall we turn around again and go through Tojima?"
"No," Lin Yunyan said immediately, immersing herself in that situation, the answer was not difficult to come up with, "If I were her, I would just open the window and throw Li Shao out, and then drag the others.
At that time, running out from the Toji Room, where the fire was the strongest, was simply to seek the distance instead of the near.
In the same way, the place where mother found Li Shao would not be Dongshao Room.
Only when Li Shao was in the East Room or the Middle Room, would his mother choose to carry him out through the door for the first time."
Xu Jian strongly agreed: "For the first time, my mother-in-law had never entered Dongshao Room. She discovered Li Shao first and rescued him in a hurry.
When she returned, she passed through the Dongci Room in the fire. She may have called out to Eunuch Cai, or she may not have cared about it and entered the later room, which was filled with smoke.
Perhaps it was the sleeping incense, perhaps the smoke was inhaled, or the two overlapped. The late empress and the others were either in a coma or in confusion, and the mother-in-law tried her best to wake them up. Mother-in-law went to open the window, and the mother-in-law held the late empress..."
The images of that night became more vivid in my mind.
The thick smoke seemed to have passed through time and swept in, making Lin Yunyan subconsciously cover her mouth and nose with her hands.
Seeing this, Xu Jian moved his chair, leaned closer, and put his arms around Lin Yunyan's shoulders.
This is the pain.
No matter how many jokes or distractions you use, they can only ease that moment. When your thoughts focus on this again, the wound will still be in unbearable pain.
If you have a weak temperament, you will probably not want to think about it. Try to let it go and leave it to someone who is competent and trustworthy to find the answer, so as not to collapse before the truth is revealed.
This kind of "giving up" is also a good choice.
But Xu Jian would not persuade Lin Yunyan like this, nor would he do everything for her, because she could bear it and was more willing to bear it.
The little princess looks soft, but is actually tough.
If the wound wants to heal completely, the carrion must be cut away and reborn.
"I wanted to tell you just now in the imperial study room," Xu Jian's voice was still calm, like a whisper, not intense, but able to calm people's hearts, "The sleeping incense was an 'accident'. We didn't expect that the Holy Spirit would
Uehara didn't think about it either.
Thinking of this today, his guilt for the late empress will be even deeper, and this emotion will continue to spread to Li Shao.
It doesn't seem to be beneficial to us, but we can still risk our lives and survive.
Only by clarifying all the truth and settling the good and the bad can the victims truly move forward.
You are like this, and so is the Holy One."
While talking, Xu Jian held Lin Yunyan's hand and stroked the back of her hand, not letting her block her breathing.
"I'm okay," Lin Yunyan smiled at Xu Jian, "Now that I've thought about the situation that night, I can continue to make judgments. The actions of the monkey-faced eunuch didn't seem to kill Li Shao, nor did they
It’s like wanting to kill the queen first.”
In the former case, Li Shao would not have to go all out, but in the latter case, he should set fire in the east.
The questions were swirling in their minds, and the two of them didn't speak for a long time, racking their brains to find some clues or a glimmer of light among the known clues.
Unfortunately, inspiration is not that easy.
Xu Jian patted Lin Yunyan on the shoulder and said, "It's getting late. If you don't blow out the lamp and take a nap, the Queen Mother will be worried tomorrow if she finds out."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep." After saying this, Lin Yunyan went to bed and lay down.
Xu Jian blows out the lamp.
The hall became dark, and Lin Yunyan was not used to the sudden loss of vision.
It was at this moment that a flash of inspiration occurred.
She quickly stood up, held the arm of Xu Jian who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and said: "We have been thinking over and over about what happened that night at Dingguo Temple and why. Maybe we should change our thinking."
Xu Jian whispered "Huh?"
"You said in the imperial study that although it is impossible to say that the murderer of Dingguo Temple and the gangster who planned the attack on the town are the same person, you tend to believe that they were both committed by the same person," Lin Yunyan said, "If you are the one behind the
Man, that night you let people attack the town at the foot of the mountain, would you want to set fire to kill Li Shao and the late empress again?"
Xu Jian was stunned for a moment.
He understood what Lin Yunyan was referring to by "changing his thinking".
No longer focusing on Dingguo Temple, but looking at the situation of the town being attacked.
This problem was not difficult for Xu Jian. He soon said directly: "It would be better to have a few more assassin masters and kill the Holy Lord directly in the town!"
All the planning is for that chair.
The only ones who faced the battle and were able to sit on the throne were the sons of the late emperor.
Since the Holy One has been involved in the crisis in that town, all he needs to do is take his life.
Is there any reason not to kill the Holy One, but to harm the First Queen and Li Shao?
"Perhaps, I didn't expect the Holy Lord to come down from the mountain at first. There are not enough manpower in the town to directly take the target." Xu Jian paused and his thoughts suddenly broadened. "It is true that the people at the foot of the mountain cannot prepare in advance, but the monkey face on the mountain takes action.
The eunuch can know whether the Holy Spirit is in the temple or not.
If his original target was the Holy One, and he knew clearly that the Holy One had gone down the mountain to suppress the bandits when he took action, he could have given up setting the fire.
Once he sets off this fire, he will lose the opportunity to remove the Holy One on the mountain and down the mountain."
It's almost meaningless.
No matter which angle you think about it, what this monkey-faced eunuch did is too strange.
unless……
Xu Jian took out a breath and said in a deep voice: "Unless his target is not the Holy Emperor, the First Queen, or Li Shao."
Lin Yunyan was shocked, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this possibility was not impossible.
"Yes, the Holy One has never wanted the throne. Even if that person doesn't believe it, he won't go after the Holy One as soon as he takes action." Lin Yunyan considered it and said, "No, he believes it. He believes that the Holy One will not fight for it, so he doesn't want to
The Killing Saint..."
"As for the late empress and Li Shao who were involved in the fire," Xu Jian sighed, "it seems that our previous thinking was not wrong."
"The eunuch didn't want Li Shao's life, nor did he want to kill the queen first," Lin Yunyan's voice trembled slightly, "He didn't even think about killing anyone exactly.
In the final analysis, the fire was just part of the coordination of the operation at the foot of the mountain. It was most likely that the Tiaosheng went back to the mountain to rescue.
Yes.
The bandit attack on the town was fake. Those were not bandits, but dead soldiers.
Once the Holy Sage stayed at the foot of the mountain and carefully investigated the bandits, he might have seen through their methods at that time, and then there would be no follow-up work for the princes to suppress the bandits and strive for credit, let alone reveal the inside story and let the credit-grabber Li Mi be deposed...
Therefore, the Holy One must summon a large number of people back to Dingguo Temple. The black hands need time to deal with the situation in the town and ensure that the secret is not exposed.
It’s just that the fire on the mountain was bigger than expected, and neither the Queen nor my mother escaped..."
With this sorting out, many things became clear.
Lin Yunyan felt sad, her throat was choked with sobs, and her eyes were extremely sore.
"If we really want to kill people, if the drug is used on Eunuch Cai, will he still be able to get up and struggle to crawl outside? Then can grandma almost escape to the bright room?" She shook her head slowly.
, "It's impossible. They won't be able to wake up at all after taking the more powerful Menghan medicine.
They were finally able to move, but the dose of medicine was insufficient and they only fell asleep for a short while. When the fire started, they woke up.
Even if they don't wake up, the eunuch expected that the people in Dongshao Room who had never smelled the drug would wake up, and the Queen and others would run out and take Li Shao away, and also take out Eunuch Cai and the nanny.
What he wants is the fire that can be seen from the bottom of the mountain, not anyone’s life..."
