How can we rest!

He was actually scolded by his deputy and his subordinates in public. What this chief officer did was really cowardly.

It's just that not long ago, he was hiding outside, fishing for law enforcement, and now he came in embarrassment and turned into an escort. He is a human being. No matter how thick-skinned he is, he still has a guilty conscience.

Wang Lengran was naturally not immune.

Faced with the lesson, they still did not forget to brag about the shameless person,

He wiped his face with his hands and his eyes wandered slightly:

"Ouyang Changshi misunderstood..."

Turning around with a look of holy light, he said:

"I have been worried about the city's defense recently. Tonight, I patrolled with the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion. Passing by Xiushui Fang, I happened to hear the movement in the palace and came immediately. How can I say that I have neglected my duty? I have been doing my duty...

"Wait a minute, come to think of it, why is Ouyang Changshi in the Xunyang Palace late at night? There are concubines, princesses and other noble family members in the palace, so Ouyang Changshi came in the middle of the night just for a far-fetched reason because he was worried about his own safety. I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

Ouyang Rong was upright and confident, and his righteousness leaked out:

"Of course there is a solid reason. The little junior sister was recently invited by the little princess to stay overnight at the palace. She noticed that there were signs of a traitor making trouble tonight, and she couldn't contact the busy Lord Wang for a while, so she did the next best thing and called me to come over.

"Sure enough, this incident happened in the middle of the night. Fortunately, our senior brothers and sisters were here, so the traitor didn't succeed."

Ouyang Rong worded the word "treacherous" quite strongly, and looked at Wang Lengran and Miao Zhen with a serious face.

"Oh, I just happen to be passing by on patrol. It's so late at night. Mr. Wang led hundreds of elite soldiers of Zhechong Mansion to patrol all night. He is really dedicated. I don't know, I thought the Hongzhou rebels were attacking the city tonight.

Ouyang Rong nodded, suddenly stopped smiling, and said calmly:

"I just saw Mr. Wang, and Mr. Shi led all the soldiers to rush in. The official was timid and mistaken. He thought they were coming to confiscate the house and destroy the palace. He almost thought that the official and the prince had turned against each other.

"Oh, do you think it's strange or not? Once this person has nothing to do, he will think about things all day long. That's how I am, making everyone laugh. Don't blame me, don't blame me."

There was silence in the open space,

The only thing left in the ruins of the burned house was the crackling sound of the century-old redwood beams that were burned in the fierce fire.

Wang Lengran felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by someone's calm eyes. He turned his head and took a small step back.

Miaozhen glanced at Ouyang Rong, who was talking a lot, pursed his lips, and continued to lead the palace attendants and imperial doctors to carefully examine and treat the injuries of Li Xian and his son.

Wang Lengran lowered his head and coughed, rolled his eyes, and immediately asked:

"Perceived the signs of the traitor's rebellion? How did Miss Xie sense the signs? I have always been there. Why can't I contact you? I can only go to Ouyang Changshi? Could it be that there is something hidden?"

Ouyang Rong asked curiously:

"What's the sign? Mr. Wang doesn't have any idea in his heart?

"Did Mr. Wang not know about the suspected anti-thief Wang Junzhi's swaggering into Prince Xunyang's palace? Didn't Mr. Female Shi also know about it? Is this such a dereliction of duty?"

Wang Lengran quickly retorted: "Of course I know!"

"If you know it, why don't you care? Leave the crisis to the prince?"

"My officer... I thought that the prince had a deep friendship with Wang Junzhi and wanted to protect this person. After all, this traitor was also a disciple of Prince Xunyang's Mansion and a member of Her Royal Highness the Princess's Poetry Society... What can I do? I have no choice but to temporarily

Be patient and wait for instructions from above..."

"What do you think? What a coincidence. The prince also thought that Mr. Wang, who kept talking about catching rebels all day long, let Wang Junzhi go and tacitly agreed that this person was safe. Only then could he allow this shameless person to stay for a few days.

For those who don’t know, they all think that Mr. Wang and Wang Junzhi are in the same group.”

Ouyang Rong treated others in his own way, and Wang Lengran's excuse was used on the spot without blinking an eye:

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince also complained to me about Lord Wang's indifference. Wang Junzhi also said that Lord Wang has a very good personal relationship with him. The so-called arrest was a misunderstanding and would not be true. He also asked him to keep a low profile.

Prince’s Mansion…”

"You are slandering me. I have never known this person before. I haven't even met him a few times!" Wang Lengran quickly denied it and explained in a panic to Miaozhen and others who were looking at him:

"I didn't even tell him about this kind of request. It's ridiculous and ridiculous."

Ouyang Rong suddenly nodded: "Is that so? Looking at it now, of course I can't believe everything this traitor says, but why are you anxious, Mr. Wang? Don't be anxious yet."

He sighed helplessly:

"Well, looking at it this way, it turned out to be a mistake, allowing this traitor to take the opportunity to sneak into the palace and get close to the prince and the prince.

"A few days after this official came in, he started to make insinuations and gossip about the prince, the prince, the prince, and the prince was worried. I didn't respond to this matter.

"I have no choice but to suggest that since Mr. Wang is conniving at this, why not wait for the Luoyang envoy to arrive and send this officer to the Emperor's envoy for disposal."

Ouyang Rong looked at Wang Lengran, pointed at the corpse in the darkness not far away, and said angrily:

"Who would have thought that this officer had received a report from someone, and as if he had sensed that the envoy was coming, he gathered his accomplices from outside the city tonight, sneaked into the palace, and together they bewitched and coerced the prince and the crown prince.

"Fortunately, my junior sister discovered the signs in time and notified me to come, and the situation was saved.

"It's just that your lord, the prince, is still too kind-hearted and generous. He tried to persuade these rebels with good words before, in order to influence these rebels and persuade them to understand the Sacred Heart, stop causing trouble, know their way back, and stop cunningly rebelling under the banner of Xunyang Prince's Palace.

"Unexpectedly, the rebel and his accomplices became so angry that they jumped over the wall and assassinated the prince in public. My junior sister and I tried our best to stop him...

"Fortunately, the prince sacrificed his life to block the sword and saved the prince's life immediately. After that, in the chaos, the prince convulsed again.

"However, the martial arts skills of these rebels were limited. My brother and sister could only maintain a stalemate and gain a slight upper hand. Unfortunately, the reinforcements did not come for a long time. Seeing that they were at a disadvantage, the rebels wanted to escape and set fire to the house...

"I and my junior sister spent a lot of effort to bring down the two thieves! Prince Xunyang's family is basically safe."

Ouyang Rong was eloquent and finished speaking smoothly in one breath, taking a long breath.

Miaozhen, Wang Lengran, Qin Heng and others couldn't help but look at him one more time.

This explanation went back and forth, with ups and downs, ups and downs, and for those who didn't know it, they thought they were in a teahouse listening to someone's story.

But the witnesses, Princess Wei Mei, the little princess Li Guo'er, and the injured prince Li Fusu, all nodded seriously and testified.

Miaozhen and others could not refute or falsify, so they could only remain silent and nodded.

Wang Lengran said suspiciously: "Two thieves? There is only the corpse of the rebel Wang Jun on the ground. Where are his colleagues?"

Ouyang Rong raised his chin and gestured to the blazing and crackling houses ahead:

"Here, it's roasting in the fire. Mr. Wang is quite interested in these side stories. I don't know how to save it from such a big fire. The body will be burnt later."

Seeing that he could not pick out the thorn for the time being, Wang Lengran gritted his teeth and had no choice but to lead his soldiers to fetch water and put out the fire.

Miaozhen checked the sword wound on Li Fusu's arm, stood up and walked to Wang Junzhi's body. He picked up the three-foot green sword next to the body and squinted at it under the firelight.

Xie Ling Jiang Yuguang glanced at the woman in palace clothes.

Ouyang Rong looked normal and cooperated with the imperial doctor to take care of Li Xian and Li Dalang.

When Miaozhen returned, the imperial doctor stood up and whispered a few words in her ear. Miaozhen heard the words and looked at the fainting prince on the ground surrounded by Li Baoer and Wei Mei, and suddenly said:

"Why is this illness so similar to the time I fainted while praying for blessings in Dragon City? It's almost exactly the same."

Ouyang Rong shrugged:

"Your Majesty has a history of convulsions. This is a relapse of an old illness... By the way, does the female historian save people or interrogate prisoners? How can she be the same as Mr. Wang?"

Miaozhen pursed her lips and said nothing.

Not long after, with the diligent help of the soldiers of Zhechong Prefecture, most of the fire in Huating was extinguished. The fire was too strong and several other houses were not taken care of for the time being.

The houses that caught fire this time were the flower hall and the reception room in Juxian Garden. The west wind blew tonight, and the study rooms on the west side were also affected. They were flooded by the raging fire and burned to the ground.

It can be said that it was completely burned.

Wang Lengran and others rescued four stumps from the ruins of the Huating House and pieced together the corpse of a big man like building blocks.

The appearance of this corpse has been burnt to carbon char, which is worse than Wang Junzhi's tattered and semi-charred state.

Only the humanoid body could be roughly distinguished, and it was extremely charred.

As for the clothes and tokens, they were burned into charcoal, and no one knew what the man looked like.

All the efforts to rescue the evidence left Wang Lengran panting and sweating profusely. But the more he checked, the more chilled he became. When the fire came down, not a hair of the evidence at the scene was left.

So cruel.

Everything was dealt with in such a short period of time.

Wang Lengran covered the face of Wang Junzhi's pale body with a white cloth with trembling hands, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Ouyang Rong's calm face.

The face in his eyes became more and more terrifying.

"Have you finished the investigation? Looking at Mr. Wang's face, do you know the accomplice of the traitor Wang Junzhi?"

"I...I don't know you." Wang Lengran denied it and said loudly:

"This man's body was cut into four parts from the waist. Even though the wound is scorched, looking at the bones, they are broken neatly. Ouyang Changshi's sword is really powerful."

Ouyang Rong glanced at Xie Lingjiang:

"Junior sister, please be gentle next time."

Wang Lengran and Miaozhen turned around to look. Not far away, the noble lady of the Xie family stood holding a sword, slightly looking up at the moon, with a beautiful oval face and a cold snort:

"I advise you to take care of the master's affairs."

The cold and heartless little junior sister has no need for affection.
