"Hold the city gate!!"
"Hurry up!"
The entire city of Shangjing seemed to be alarmed.
Countless people gathered towards the four city gates and controlled all directions out of the city. There were also soldiers and horses handles under the city wall, while the remaining people looked towards the streets of the city.
And in the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a raging fire was already burning.
I don’t know who set the fire.
"Quick, quick, where is the water, where is it!?"
The officials gathered in front of the prime minister's house and poured bucket after bucket of water into it.
I don't know who started the fire. The fire got bigger and bigger. Eventually, there was no room to stop it, and no one dared to step forward. Everyone could only watch the huge prime minister's palace gradually turn into ashes in the fire. .
"It's over..."
Some are happy and some are sad.
There really was a big mess tonight. Thieves rode into the city to cause trouble. The Prime Minister's Mansion was burned to ashes. I don't know how many people will be held accountable tomorrow.
And until now, not only have they not found the thief, but they have not even found the arsonist.
In Shangjing City at this moment.
The scene has become a bit chaotic.
Ruyi walked with Tang Yuerong in the shadows.
Tang Yuerong opened her mouth and said, "Miss Wang, I'm afraid we can't leave."
Ruyi said: "If you don't hit me, you won't be a kid. It's better to call her sister."
Tang Yuerong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and thought to herself, when has this happened, do you still care about these things?
Ruyi leaned against the entrance of the alley and looked around.
After finding the opportunity, he took Tang Yuerong and broke into an inn.
Immediately closed the door.
She asked: "I received a letter from your housekeeper. How did your Tang Dynasty offend this prime minister?"
Tang Yuerong immediately explained the cause and effect.
Li Linheng wanted to use them to go to the Tang Mansion in Beijing to control all Tang's trading houses in the world, and from them, control the world's commercial and business connections, which also led to this disaster in the Tang Mansion.
Ruyi snorted and said, "It shows that being too rich is not a good thing."
Li Hua straightened her beard and said, "This is not the reason why Ruyi has no money."
"Ouch."
As Cihua said, she was hit on the head again.
"Don't interrupt."
"oh……"
Ruyi said: "I just saw that the Prime Minister's Mansion was on fire."
After hearing this, Tang Yuerong paused and said, "If this is the case, maybe the evidence will also be burned. In this way..."
Ruyi asked: "What evidence?"
"My father and my younger brother are secretly helping King Yu."
"Prince Yu?" Ruyi paused and asked, "The one at the border gate?"
"Um."
Ruyi immediately said: "Don't think about it, he must have started this fire himself, otherwise he would not be able to explain where those dead soldiers came from. To put it bluntly, it was just to deceive others, and the evidence must still be in his hands." ,and……"
"I almost killed his whole family today. He will probably die. Maybe he has entered the palace now."
Tang Yuerong's expression changed when he heard this, "What should we do..."
"What should I do?" Ruyi smiled and said, "Just one sentence, keep the green hills, even if there is no firewood, your Tang's trading firm is spread all over the world. Wherever you go is not running away?"
Tang Yuerong's face changed slightly, and she shook her head and said: "No, this is different. If the news spreads, shopkeepers everywhere will suffer, and the number of casualties will be at least tens of thousands..."
Tang's trading houses are spread all over the world, but at the same time they are restricted by these princes who dominate the world. If the news of Tang's trading houses helping King Yu spreads, King Yan, King Jin, and the court will definitely go on a killing spree.
By then, things will get messy.
"Is it that serious?" Ruyi paused and said.
Tang Yuerong nodded with an ugly expression.
Ruyi touched her chin, but looked at the civet flower on her shoulder.
"Lihua, go and kill him."
Li Hua opened her round eyes.
"I?"
Li Hua seemed a little unbelievable.
Looking at that look, he seemed to be cursing and saying: What nonsense are you talking about?
Ruyi sighed softly and said: "Forget it, you are not good at killing people."
Moreover, not everyone can go to the palace now.
Over the years, countless strange people and strange things have appeared in the world. There must be many such people in the palace, and Ruyi does not dare to let Lihua take risks.
Ruyi sighed softly and said, "I have no choice but to run."
Tang Yuerong opened his mouth, knowing that there was no way he could save himself.
But among everyone was stunned.
Suddenly I saw a white mist rising from the dim inn.
Ruyi was startled, then she tightened her grip on the gun and protected Tang Yuerong behind her.
When that figure is revealed.
Lihua also recognized it, "Hey, isn't this the one just now, that one, Grandpa Chenghuang?"
The Lord of the City of Shangjing had a kind face and smiled and said, "The little god has seen fairy beasts and the girl Ruyi."
Seeing his attitude like this, she was immediately stunned.
She hesitated for a moment, "I don't know..."
Tang Yuerong looked confused, "City, City God? Is this the City God?"
She was horrified, but she didn't know what to do at this moment.
Should I salute or kneel down and worship?
The City God smiled warmly and then said: "The little god was entrusted by someone to deliver a message to Miss Tang."
Ruyi and Lihua looked at Tang Yuerong.
Tang Yuerong stepped forward, knelt down and said, "Tang Yuerong, I want to pay my respects to Master Cheng Huang. I wonder what Master Cheng Huang has ordered."
"Please get up quickly."
The City God helped her up and said, "It's not an order. The little god is just sending a message. Miss Tang, please just go back home in peace. Don't worry about the rest. The storm will pass soon."
Tang Yuerong was stunned, with a blank expression on his face.
She hesitated for a moment and asked, "May I ask Master Chenghuang, who is this person who is helping me in the Tang Mansion?"
The City God smiled at her but did not explain.
Seeing this, Tang Yuerong understood and immediately said, "It's the little girl who's being abrupt."
The City God nodded, "Now that the words have been delivered, the little god left first."
"Goodbye, grandpa." Lihua waved her paw.
"Thank you so much, the immortal beast, for sending me off, haha." The City God smiled, and then said: "If Mr. Chen comes back, I hope the immortal beast can give the little god a nice word. The little god also hopes that one day he can get the immortal to show him the way. Opportunity.”
"Ah, that's right, definitely." Lihua nodded.
Immediately, the city god turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.
Ruyi suddenly came back to her senses, "Is this Lord City God just talking about Uncle Chen?"
Lihua nodded and said, "It seems so."
Li Hua slapped her head and then realized what she was doing.
"I was just telling you why he left when we were at the Prime Minister's Mansion just now. It turned out to be Mr. Chen!"
Ruyi paused and murmured: "Uncle Chen's connections are really wide..."
Tang Yuerong was stunned and asked, "Dare I ask, is it Chen Changsheng, Mr. Chen?"
"right."
Tang Yuerong was in a daze for a moment and asked, "Mr. Chen is really a fairy?"
"you do not know?"
"Not really, it's just...just..."
Tang Yuerong had met this gentleman, and both her father and aunt highly praised him, but she had never seen him use any magical means.
