Uncle Guo rolled his eyes at Qin Zongheng angrily:
"It would be easy if they just came for the Duke's Palace. What I'm afraid of is that this person comes from the palace. This time to deal with the Duke's Palace, he actually came for the Queen and the Crown Prince."
Qin Zongheng felt guilty and said: "It's not...that serious, right? Can my aunt and the prince be implicated?"
Uncle Guo: "If it wasn't serious, how could the Queen have repeatedly ordered the Duke's office to be careful these days! But you don't know how to live or die, just cause trouble for me!"
Qin Zongheng: "What should we do now?"
Uncle Guo: "What can I do? I will go into the palace to find the Queen. You should quickly open the mouths of the brothers. If you know who is behind the scenes, you can be on guard. After asking, deal with the two of them and make things clean." "
After Qin Zongheng agreed, he hurried out of the mansion. Before he could leave the mansion, he saw his followers running in panic.
"Master, it's not good, it's burning."
Qin Zongheng: "What's the hurry? Where's the burning?"
"The He family brother's house in the north gate of the city was on fire. The people around were afraid that their own houses would be burned down, so they all ran to help put out the fire. The fire was not extinguished when I left."
After hearing this, Qin Zongheng quickly got into the carriage and urged the groom to hurry up.
When they arrived, the fire had been put out, but half of the house was burned. Three of the four strong men who were left to guard He Quan and He Mu were killed in the flames, and only one crawled into the yard to breathe.
Qin Zongheng's facial features were twisted with anger, and he ordered his followers to go in and look for someone.
The burning wood was still smoking. The Jingzhao Yin Mansion and the city guard army sent people to check, but Qin Zongheng excused them on the grounds of accidental fire.
It wasn't until dark that Qin Zongheng returned to the mansion dejectedly. As soon as he entered the mansion, before he had time to wash up, he was called to Qin Guogong's courtyard.
The uncle's wife looked at her disgraced son and quickly wiped his face with a handkerchief.
Duke Guo of Qin said displeased: "That's ashes, not blood. What's so big about it? Have you found someone?"
The uncle's wife heard this and stood aside. Qin Zongheng timidly said: "I didn't find it..."
Duke Guo of Qin: "The servant you sent back was saved by the government doctor's treatment. He has been given medicine just now. Let's wait until he wakes up to see if he can find out anything. I heard from your father that Xu Er's matter was caused by someone. Harmful?"
Qin Zongheng: "Yes, grandfather. My grandson heard what the He family brothers said. Xu Er was framed by the people behind the scenes. The brothers also said that the people behind the scenes would not let the Qin family go."
Qin Guogong: "Your father and I analyzed that this person came for the queen and the prince. He brought down the Duke's house, and the queen and the prince lost an arm. If this is true, this person must have come for the high position. Left It’s just those princes.”
Uncle Qin: "Who does father think he is?"
Qin Guogong: "Based on his strength, he is naturally the third prince. However, the third prince is upright and impatient. He would not have thought of such a sinister and sophisticated method. It would make sense if he recruited new staff to help him come up with this plan. After all, Concubine Xian is not a fuel-efficient person. Lamp. But the other two... are not impossible. No matter what means are used to fight for the big position."
While he was talking, a servant came to report that the guard in the house was awake.
Qin Zongheng hurriedly followed him to ask questions. The guard was half leaning on the bed, recalling what happened before he fainted.
"A strong man with a masked face came, injured four of the younger ones, and rescued the He brothers. The younger one was kicked to the door and unable to move. Before he fainted, he heard that the He brothers seemed to call the man Zhong. Brother..."
