The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Chapter 145 The Fire in Prince Duan’s Mansion

Ji Xiang quickly walked into the consulting room and saw Xiong Er drinking tea with Li Da.

When the two saw Ji Xiang, they stood up one after another and said, "Miss!"

"No need to be polite, Li Da, let me ask you, how is Prince Ning doing now?"

Ji Xiang did not expect Li Da Da to come to Beijing in person. In the past, Niu Er and others were responsible for delivering goods, and he had never followed him.

"Miss, Prince Ning has arrived in Fengyu County." Li Da said.

"I understand this. How is he? He is not injured, right?"

"I heard that there was another siege in the place where you were originally sieged. Fortunately, two tigers helped us resist for a while before rushing out."

Li Da took out a letter from his chest, "This is what Prince Ning asked me to bring to the eldest lady."

Ji Xiang was confused, hadn't he already sent a letter through the post office before, so why did he ask Li Da to send another one?

But Jixiang still took the letter and opened it.

It didn't matter. Ji Xiang was shocked when he saw it. Maybe King Duan is not dead? ! !

How is this going?

"Li Da, apart from asking you to give me this letter, what else did King Ning say?" Jixiang asked Li Da.

Li Da shook his head, "He didn't say anything else. He said that the eldest lady would understand everything after reading the letter. By the way, he also asked me to tell you that he is very good. Although he encountered some troubles along the way, the good news is that he has everything No chance."

Jixiang put the letter away and said, "What happened to the fire in Prince Duan's Mansion? How much do you know?"

Speaking of the fire in Prince Duan's Mansion, Li Da became interested.

"You don't know that the fire burned for three days and three nights, burning the good Prince Duan's Mansion into a pile of ashes."

"So serious?" Xiong Er was surprised.

"Is anyone dead?" Ji Xiang asked.

"The dead must be dead. The county police officer said that they carried out more than 30 corpses alone, but they were all burnt."

"What about Prince Duan?"

Li Da shook his head, "No one knows whether Prince Duan is inside or not. However, the county magistrate said that he sent a memorial to the capital, saying that Prince Duan was also burned down."

Ji Xiang looked at the two of them, "Do you think King Duan will be burned to death?"

Xiong Er shook his head, "Although King Duan lives in seclusion in Fengyu County and the people know very little about him, he is famous far and wide for cherishing his life."

"Tell me."

"Speaking of King Duan cherishing his life, I remembered one thing."

Li Da continued, "Brother Xiong, do you still remember three years ago? When Xie Dongnan came up with a new thing and wanted to make some money, he took a few brothers to the county town to sell it."

Xiong Er nodded, "Of course I remember it. At that time, the firecrackers made by shopkeeper Xie could reach the sky, but they stunned people and they all rushed to buy them. Even the housekeeper of Prince Duan's Mansion bought several."

"Those firecrackers bought by the housekeeper almost sent Xie Dongnan to jail!"

I heard Xiong Er and Li Da say that King Duan was afraid that the firecrackers made by Xie Dongnan would fly into their yard, so he immediately ordered a ban on the sale of such things and stipulated that those who had bought them were not allowed to be set off. For this reason, Xie Dongnan was even arrested in the county government office. They were not released from prison until New Year's Eve when Xiong Er and Li Da stuffed their money.

"Also," Xiong Er added, "I heard that Prince Duan's mansion is dedicated to raising poison testers. Prince Duan's food will only be eaten by poison testers."

Li Da nodded, "I know a person who is working as a poison tester in Prince Duan's Mansion."

"Since King Duan cherishes his life so much, then his palace must have water reserves to prevent water leakage. How could all the rooms in the palace be on fire overnight?"

Li Da moved forward mysteriously, "I heard from people that on the night of the fire, someone saw people in black everywhere on the roof of Prince Duan's Mansion."

Xiong Eryi was startled, looking at the auspiciousness.

"How many people are there in Prince Duan's Mansion?"

Ji Xiang felt that thirty or so corpses were too few. A palace, including the soldiers, would have to have hundreds of people.

"I know this. I have always personally delivered the sea fish that their house needed before. Judging from the quantity they purchased, there must be at least two to three hundred people." Li Da said.

"So, many people actually escaped. So, where did these escaped people go? Did anyone see them that night?" Jixiang asked Li Da again.

Li Da shook his head, "No one has ever mentioned this. However,"

He thought for a while and said, "After the accident, many people whose family members worked in Prince Duan's Mansion went to the county government office to cry and make trouble. There is a captain of the government soldiers who I know, but his family did not go to make trouble."

"Why didn't his family make trouble?"

"I don't know about this, and their family doesn't seem to be too sad, and they continue to live their lives as usual. Before I came, they even bought our fish!"

Xiong Er looked at Ji Xiang and said, "This matter can be investigated."

Ji Xiang nodded, "Go back and tell the prince to keep an eye on this family. Also, Li Da, you can also help the prince keep an eye on this family. Start with these family members who have worked in Prince Duan's Mansion, find out the clues, and look at this Duan Palace." Is the king dead or alive?"

"Young lady, you mean that Prince Duan might still be alive?"

Xiong Er looked at Ji Xiang and said, "If he is still alive, why doesn't he come to the capital to find the emperor?"

Ji Xiang had no choice but to say, "Now we are all guessing. We can only rely on Prince Ning to investigate everything. By the way, Brother Xiong, the emperor has restored you to your original position. Are you going to go out to serve?"

Li Da was pleasantly surprised: "Brother has been reinstated to his original position? Then the Emperor has settled our Xiong Jiajun's unjust case?!"

Xiong Erxiao said, "Yes, Kou Peilin, who framed us back then, is already in prison, and he is being executed by Queen Qiu."

"That's great, that's great. We don't have to be anonymous anymore. We can use our original names!"

Li Da was so excited that he walked around the room happily, "I have to tell Niu Er and the others about this quickly, so that everyone can be happy!"

"I have already sent the letter, and it will arrive in a few days." Xiong Er said, "This is all the result of the eldest lady. Without the eldest lady, we people would probably..."

"Brothers Li, please thank Miss!" Li Dad turned around and knelt down towards Jixiang, "As I said, no matter what Miss asks Li to do in the future, Li Dad will definitely live up to his mission!"

Ji Xiang quickly helped Li Da up and said, "We are all a family now, and we are just talking about this. As I said, I will lead everyone to live a good life together. Let everyone stand upright and straighten their backs. This is just the first step. Two steps.”

"Is there a third or fourth step?" Li Da was curious.

"Of course, we have all achieved the first step of having enough to eat. The second step, which I just mentioned, has now been completed. The third step..."

Xie Dongnan hurried in, "Miss, is Yu Qingkui here?"

"What is he doing here?" Jixiang was confused. He had been here to cause trouble since the first day the Xuanyi Pavilion opened. He had never appeared again, so why did he suddenly come again.
