"The fire last night was the first move. The purpose was to have the Imperial Guard put out the fire and inspect the scene, and then guard it outside the temple, creating the appearance that the spirit was still there after it was destroyed, but was gone in the morning. This is a reminder of everything that happened in the morning.
To pave the way."
Otherwise, a few servants and an unprotected palace would not be enough to add color to this well-designed conspiracy.
When Lin Shen heard what Yu Qiansi said, he quickly waved his hand and asked the martyrs to go to the other side to rest, lest they hear things they shouldn't hear and cause more trouble.
But after thinking about it, I still wondered: "Then how did this person do it?"
"I guess the point of the fire must not be on the Wuji Spiritual Platform."
Lin Shen already knew that it was not difficult for Yu Qiansi, who was as smart as a demon or a spirit, to deduce these things.
"Yes, the official document sent to the young master in the morning mentioned the matter of Zaiguang Palace in detail."
Yu Qiansi gently raised her chin, and the skylight that could not be covered by her long eyelashes fell on her eyes, adding a bit of clear brightness.
"It's very simple."
In fact, the spiritual position had been replaced long before the fire.
The person who did it must be one of the servants in charge of sweeping the mess in Zaiguang Hall.
He first replaced the spiritual tablet with a fake spiritual tablet made of ice and containing blood and handed it to his accomplices, and then set it on fire to attract the attention of the Praetorian Guards.
Therefore, the imperial guards had to enter the Zaiguang Hall to put out the fire. After extinguishing the fire, they would inspect the fire scene as usual, and they would naturally scan the most important spiritual places in the hall.
But it was already late at night, and the hall had just been on fire. It was filled with smoke, the lights were dim, and the candles were weak, so it was naturally extremely dark. And they would not dare to actually go up to the memorial platform and look at it one by one. As long as there were no spiritual tablets.
If it is vacant, it will not arouse suspicion.
This is the reason why she guessed that the fire point would only be in other places in the temple, not on the Wuji spiritual platform. Otherwise, if the spiritual platform is messed up and needs to be adjusted back one by one, it is inevitable that someone will find something suspicious.
This person must be very familiar with the palace. He knows that the imperial guards carry sharp weapons and are not allowed to guard inside the Zaiguang Palace. He will definitely withdraw outside the palace, playing into his hands.
The ice-made spiritual tablet naturally melted very quickly in a hall that was overheated and lit with longevity candles, so in the end, only a pool of blood was left.
The Imperial Guards who surrounded the main hall and took away all the servants on duty after the fire to investigate, unknowingly completed an important step for the people behind the scenes to make it more eerie.
The eunuch on duty was taken away, clearing the possibility that the eunuch changed his spiritual position after the fire. After what happened in court the next morning, the imperial guards guarding outside the temple will also become witnesses of the miracle.
Lin Shen's eyes were blank, and he felt it was hard to breathe: "You are right, this is not just a claim to the east and an attack on the west, it is clearly a claim to the east and an attack on the west again!"
Sure enough, they are closely linked...
The noise about the fire in the inner palace has become louder, and naturally everyone's attention will be on Zaiguang Hall and His Majesty... At that time, it would be wrong to put the spiritual tablet in a place where everyone would see it during the court meeting the next day.
Isn't it easy?
Lin Shen didn't dare to think deeply. A fire in the inner palace had been used repeatedly several times. In addition, what Yu Qiansi and the others experienced last night... who was the person behind the scenes?
"What a pity, it's too late now." Boyi sighed.
Now, everyone is in the game and has lost the opportunity.
"It's not too late. It's only been a night. It's too late for you to go to the palace to express your love and explain all the reasons... right?"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Shen himself came to his senses.
Yes, it's too late.
If he enters the palace now, even if he explains the truth, or even demonstrates everything about last night to everyone in the world, some people will think that the saint is shirking his responsibility, and instead they will feel guilty and timid.
No wonder that person made such a big fuss and wanted to trap Yu Qiansi here...
Boyi thought for a while and said: "The person behind the scenes is by no means simple... But now we can only stop with silence and wait and see what the person behind the scenes will do next."
Lin Shen was excited when he was reminded like this.
"Yes, this man not only tried his best to trap you in this place, but he also knew the young master's movements and deliberately waited for him to leave the palace before taking action. The most important thing is... it was a palace late at night.
Yes, he has made the matter bigger with his skills, which should not be underestimated."
Yu Qiansi helped Yayin sit aside and added: "I'm afraid it's more than that. That person chose to trap me here because it is very close to Junyuan Temple, and the young master left the palace last night to go to Junyuan Temple.
Healing...Bo Yi is right, he must still have some options left."
From yesterday to now, everything the people behind the scenes have done may seem crude and simple on the surface, but on the inside they are interconnected, accurately calculating people's hearts, and achieving multiple goals.
The cynical look in Lin Shen's eyes faded a little, and a chill slowly crept up his back.
Yu Qiansi rubbed his thumb on Yuli Qiankun for a moment.
"That man knew that I would save Yayin, and that Boyi would share the joys and sorrows with me, so he set up the trap of this separate garden. If Yayin asks for rescue, he will first go to the nearest Junyuan Temple, so he will definitely meet the young man.
host."
"As soon as the young master and I are not in the capital, we cannot be summoned immediately, and we cannot prevent the situation in the palace from spreading last night, which will lead to everything that happened this morning."
Judging from the work of the person behind the scenes, this blow was not just for one thing.
Killing two birds with one stone is a common thing.
"Secondly, the young master just asked Yixiang to hurt me with those words, it must be to prevent me from following. Therefore, there must be something in Junyuan Temple that is absolutely unusual for me...
"
Boyi looked up at the sky, and there happened to be a dark cloud driven by the wind, reluctantly covering the blazing sun that still had the lingering poison of summer.
Sure enough, he had already guessed that Wang Song's move was to protect Aru.
It was already late autumn, but it still made him feel like he was back in summer for a moment.
"Don't worry," he turned around and said warmly with a smile: "I will sneak up the mountain to have a look later and give you news."
Yu Qiansi shook his head without thinking: "What is dangerous for me is definitely not safe for you. Don't worry, the young master knows it. Besides, I have already left a letter to Yu Linyi. I will wait for you."
If he replies, I will——"
"Wait a minute, Master Yu," Lin Shen made an "interruption" gesture: "I have never understood that Master Yu usually calls his father this way. Is this some weird rule of the Yu family?"
He and Yu Qiansi have known each other for so long, and it seems that Yu Qiansi has never properly addressed his elders.
Calling someone by his first name and surname together is considered a treasonous act for any parent who hears it, right?
Boyi recalled what she said when she argued with Yu Qianshan, and it was indeed true. He also became curious and looked over with Lin Shen.
Seeing the appearance of the two people in front of him, Yu Qiansi curled his lips and quickly replied: "He asked me to call him that."
After saying that, before Lin Shen could speak again, he turned around and asked Yayin under the tree.
"Miss Yayin, I just heard what Lin Shen said, someone gave you the machine blueprints?"
