As night faded and dawn came, a new day arrived again. The news of Fan Jianglin's house on fire was also sent to Qingyuan Station in the afternoon.
Banqin and Suxin looked worried, and Prince Jin'an also frowned.
"Forget it, let's go back to the capital. If you have any grudges or grudges, you can do whatever you want." He said, "The Gao family has gone crazy. You also said that you can't make a bet with a madman, just in case something happens.
…”
Cheng Silang's tragedy cannot happen again.
Cheng Jiaoniang shook her head.
"No, we can't go back now," she said.
"Cheng Fang, don't worry about me." Prince Jin'an said, "Even if you return to the capital, it won't be that easy to kill me."
"It's not that I'm worried about you." Cheng Jiaoniang said with a smile, "It's not to that point. They are fine. The eldest brother and sister-in-law took their children to the Military Supervision Department. No matter how crazy the Gao family is, they will not go to the military.
The supervisor set fire to kill people."
"Then we can't hide like this forever." Prince Jin'an frowned and said, "They should be allowed to leave the capital first."
"That's not easy either." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
If it were that easy to leave, King Jin'an wouldn't wait until now.
Although they are not a clan like him, they are relatives of Cheng Jiaoniang. As long as Cheng Jiaoniang is in the capital for a day, they cannot come and go easily.
The prince of Jin'an County felt a little sad.
"The further we go, the safer they will be, don't worry." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
Prince Jin'an looked at her, smiled and nodded.
"Your Highness, the fireworks you requested have been delivered." A servant outside the door said.
Prince Jin'an suddenly smiled.
"Come, come and watch the fireworks with me." He said, and Miss Cheng extended her hand.
"What do you want fireworks for?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked.
"The day after tomorrow is the prince's wedding day." Prince Jin'an said, "Although I can't watch him get married in the capital, it's not far away anyway, so I've prepared some fireworks to celebrate.
"
Cheng Jiaoniang put her hand on his, and Prince Jin'an pulled her up with a smile.
………………………………
The door was pushed open, and a group of soldiers rushed in.
"Who are you? What are you doing? How can you break in privately..."
Several servants shouted.
The leading general shook the badge in his hand.
"Military Supervision Department," he said.
The servants were stunned.
"I was ordered to check for lost weapons and no one should miss them." The general said with a cold face, "Superintendent Fan also knows about this."
In this case, people stopped talking and moved out of the way.
"Be careful. Don't do it perfunctorily just because it's one of our own. This is not one of our own. Just because it's one of our own, we need to investigate carefully, lest Fan Junjian is unclear." The general said with his hands on his hips.
The soldiers responded and spread out in the courtyard like wolves and tigers.
"What's going on here?"
Looking at the messy ruins in the backyard, the general raised his eyebrows and shouted.
Is it really the case of destroying corpses and eradicating traces...
"Master Jun." A servant stood up and said timidly, "Our house ran out of water last night..."
"Water leakage?" The general interrupted him and shouted, "Why is it such a coincidence? It happened last night?"
He glared when he said this.
"Tell me, did you do it on purpose?"
The servants immediately screamed.
"Strict investigation! Must be investigated!" the general shouted, "This fire is so strange!"
The servants looked at him in surprise.
"Master Jun, do you think so too?" said a helper, with a bit of excitement, "We also feel something is strange. It has just rained heavily, and it cannot be said that the weather is dry. How can it catch fire so easily?"
As he spoke, he saluted the general repeatedly.
"...Please ask the military master to check carefully... We have burned down two rooms... They are warehouses, and they are full of valuables..."
……………………………………………
"Check your mother's legs!"
There was a crisp sound, and the general was slapped in the face by a man.
In front of other people in the room, the general's face suddenly turned red.
"Get out!"
The general did not dare to raise his head and cover his face and went out.
The man in the room looked gloomy.
"So nothing was found?" he asked.
"Yes, there are no traces of any ammunition or equipment." One person replied.
"Sir, the military supervisor didn't lose anything. I think Mrs. Cheng did it herself, right?" Another person said, "After all, Fan Jianglin, Li Mao, and others all had to be instructed by her."
"I know this." The man said in a deep voice, "I know that Fan Jianglin and Li Mao can't help her much, but now I just want to know what exactly is in her hand and how much is left."
"It seems that nothing can be found here in the capital. Keep an eye on Qingyuan Station."
The people in the room responded yes.
"Sir, will we not investigate the matter of the minor official for the time being?" Someone thought of something and asked.
"It's just temporary," the man said. "The prince will get married in the future. This is the most important thing."
………………………………….
"Now Master Gao has enough reasons to stay in the capital."
Chen family, a staff member said.
"Mrs. Gao is sick, and now he himself is also sick, and he can't leave anymore."
Chen Shao's face was expressionless and seemed to be absent-minded.
He has been like this since the people in the palace who were preparing for the wedding the day after tomorrow came this afternoon.
Regardless of the reason for this marriage and what it means, after all, it is a major event for my daughter to get married.
"Sir, it's getting late, let's leave first," the staff said.
Chen Shao nodded and watched the staff exit. He stood up and walked to the backyard.
The yard has already begun to prepare for tying flowers and festoons. At this time, the night has begun to fall, and it looks very beautiful in the hazy light.
Seeing Chen Shao's servants all busy making way with courtesy, Chen Shao finally stood in front of the back house door, but stopped again.
The lamps have been lit here, and it is bright inside and outside.
Ever since she decided to agree to Dan Niang's marriage, Mrs. Chen never let him enter the backyard again.
"...Mother...Mother...do you think it looks good in this way?"
Chen Danniang's clear voice came from inside.
Chen Shao hurriedly looked over and saw a small figure in the hall turning around under the lamp, wearing a bright red wedding dress.
"...I don't look as good-looking as Sister Cheng..."
"Oh, Nineteenth Lady, you are joking. You are the princess's makeup, and Lady Cheng is just the princess of the county..." the servants in the hall said with a smile.
Chen Shao couldn't help but turn around, raised his sleeves and wiped his tears.
"Mother, why are you crying?"
"Mother is happy."
There was a conversation behind him, and Chen Shao could no longer listen and hid his face and hurried away.
……………………………………………..
The palace was also brightly lit, and the Queen Mother's palace was even more lively.
"Brother Six, Brother Six."
The Queen Mother shouted again and again.
"Sit down quickly, sit down."
In the hall, the prince was laughing and shouting, running around the pillars without hearing her words at all.
"Your Highness, please stop shouting. Your Highness won't understand." The chamberlain on the side said, standing up and raising his hand, "You guys, please quickly grab His Highness the Crown Prince and let him rest for a while. He has been running around all night."
The servants hurriedly responded and swarmed around the prince and sat him down.
The prince's furious shouts rang out in the palace.
The Queen Mother put her hand on her forehead.
"We have to let him show his face no matter what during the wedding." She said, "Look at this, can you handle it?"
The chamberlain also sighed.
"Your Highness is making noise day and night," he said.
Listening to the loud and low shouts, the Queen Mother felt upset.
"Didn't you use that soothing soup before? Give him some," she said.
The waiter looked hesitant for a moment.
"The imperial doctor said, don't use too many decoctions to calm the nerves," he said.
The Queen Mother glared at him angrily.
"It's only for these two days. It's a big wedding after all, so it's more or less decent." She said.
The waiter immediately didn't dare to speak and hurriedly answered yes.
"Are you still going to bed tonight?" he asked hesitantly.
The Queen Mother looked at the Prince who could not hold down even three or four chamberlains.
"Look at how strong he is, don't be blind," she said.
The waiter understood and responded yes.
"Go, go, go to bed early, it's been a noisy day." The Queen Mother waved her hand and said.
The people in the palace responded and pulled the prince away.
As the night fell, a woman moaned in the Prince's Palace, and it soon became quiet.
The waiter outside yawned.
"We don't have a short time today," he said.
The waiter opposite smiled and nodded.
As he was talking, the door to the inner room opened, and a half-dressed woman came out with some residual spring feeling.
"Mrs. Yu, it seems that you will be the mother of the future emperor's grandson." They smiled and saluted.
The woman looked a little happy and proud.
"Don't dare, don't dare, the emperor's grandson's mother is the queen." She smiled.
"Ms. Yu is tired. Why don't you just rest here? Why go back and forth?" said the chamberlains.
A trace of disdain flashed in the woman's eyes.
Who wants to sleep with a fool and stink...
"No, how dare I sleep with the prince?" She smiled and walked out swaying.
Just as the chamberlains were about to go to bed, they heard the prince shouting again.
"Oh, why are you making trouble again?" said one.
"Then use the soothing soup." Another one said.
After feeding him a bowl of soothing soup, the prince became quiet as expected, and the servants breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the messy couch, one of the chamberlains wanted to clean it up, but was pulled by another.
"Don't clean it up. It will be troublesome if the noise starts again." He said, "It's dirty. Who knows and who doesn't care. Just wait until tomorrow morning to clean it up."
The waiter stopped, lit some incense, put down the curtains, and left.
Leaving the night guard behind, the others walked out of the palace door and looked up at the autumn night sky.
"It will be a good day tomorrow," one said.
……………………………………………..
It was a dark autumn night, and the inn fell into silence. Standing on the porch, Prince Jin'an was looking up at the sky.
"The weather has been good these two days." He turned back and said to Cheng Jiaoniang, "It seems that Si Tiantai is not useless at all, at least it hasn't been cloudy or rainy."
Cheng Jiaoniang smiled.
"How can there be so many mediocre people?" she said.
"I thought that in the eyes of a genius like you, everyone in the world is mediocre." Prince Jin'an laughed.
"Then I am just mediocre." Cheng Jiaoniang smiled.
Under the starlight lights, the smile is bright.
"By the way, wait a minute." King Jin'an suddenly thought of something, said to her, turned around and went downstairs.
"Where are you going so late?" Cheng Jiaoniang asked.
Prince Jin'an ignored her and went downstairs to whisper a few words to some of the chamberlains, who then hurriedly walked away.
"Madam, the wind is getting cold." Banqin walked out and held up his cloak.
Cheng Jiaoniang turned around and asked her to put it on. Then she turned around and saw that Prince Jin'an was already standing in the courtyard downstairs, waving at her and smiling.
"Look," he said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two waiters lit two fireworks.
Fireworks exploded in the sky, turning into two brilliant clouds, lighting up the sky above the inn.
There was a commotion in the front yard, and many people cheered.
Mr. Gu looked away from the window and curled his lips.
"You know how to be careful about this." He muttered, continuing to look down at the information collected from Beijing.
Banqin covered her mouth and smiled.
"Does it look good? How does it compare to what we had at that time?" Prince Jin'an downstairs asked with a smile.
Cheng Jiaoniang looked up at the night sky, her expression suddenly changed, she took a step forward and grabbed the railing.
Sensing something strange about her, Banqin hurriedly supported her.
"Madam, what's wrong?" she asked.
The Prince of Jin'an County downstairs also looked over with some confusion and went upstairs.
The moment Cheng Jiaoniang watched the fireworks dissipate in the sky, her shocked and solemn expression was reflected.
"The five stars gather for a bullfight." She murmured, "The five stars gather for a bullfight."
"Cheng Fang?"
The Prince of Jin'an County stepped upstairs and just as he shouted, he saw Cheng Jiaoniang raising her feet and walking towards him quickly.
He subconsciously reached out to support her.
Cheng Jiaoniang grabbed his arm with her backhand.
"Fang Bocong." She said, "Go back to Beijing now, immediately."
Now, immediately, return to Beijing?
Prince Jin'an looked at her in astonishment, his expression gradually becoming serious.
………………………………………….
A crisp snapping sound broke the silence of the room in the middle of the night.
The little chamberlain who raised the curtain and looked at the couch fell to the ground, knocking over the short table beside him. However, he ignored the pain and stared at the man on the couch with his eyes wide open and blood pouring from his mouth and nose.
Prince, both liver and gallbladder are gone.
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly!"

The weather is suddenly cold, everyone should pay attention. (To be continued)
