Chapter 375 Fire falls from the sky(2/2)

The preparation records were also taken away, saying that we wanted to get to the bottom of things?"

Li Chengzhi is actually coming to the palace to prepare a record?

Yuan Yuan felt confused and couldn't make a conclusion for a while.

The two men swore that they had never done anything. Li Chengzhi looked aggrieved by being framed. Yuan Yuan didn't know which one was telling the truth and which one was false?

From the looks of it, Li Chengzhi must be anxious to enter the palace to complain.

Just sue, you'll probably get scolded again...

Yuan Yuan waved his sleeves nonchalantly: "Just leave..."

Li Chengzhi was secretly delighted.

He was afraid that Yuan Yuan would find a reason not to let him go...

After a quick bow, Li Chengzhi left.

……

"How dare you dare to make random changes to the military register?"

Changsun Gong was gritting his teeth and cursing as he entered the Yamen Hall of the Recruitment Guard. He didn't know whether he was angry or excited, but his voice seemed to have changed shape.

Yuan Wei suddenly thought: "Is it really Li Chengzhi who changed it?"

"What if?"

Changsun Gong sneered and said, "Before handing the register to Li Chengzhi, I took a look at it to see who the descendants of the clan were and who Li Chengzhi could invite. There was nothing wrong at that time.

Li Chengzhi changed drastically after that. Who else could he have painted it on?

Don’t you think that I am so blind that I can’t even tell the difference between ‘Yu’ and ‘Wang’, ‘Shi’ and ‘Tu’?”

"Are you really brave?"

After cursing, Yuan Wei asked again, "Since he dares to do it, Li Chengzhi must be somewhat sure. What if he refuses to admit it?"

"How can it be that easy?"

Changsun Gong sneered and said, "The passing geese leave a sound, but the passing rats leave traces? No matter how careful he is, how dare he leave no trace at all?"

The elder Sun Gong placed the three books on the table and opened them one by one. Yuan Wei sniffed subconsciously: "Why does it smell like sulfur?"

"It's because Li Chengzhi smoked smoke in the tent to drive away insects... He forgot about you and me when we entered the bandits' camp. How pungent was the smoke? The horses choked and became restless..."

As he explained in his mouth, Changsun Gong felt that the light was a little dark, and ordered his subordinates: "Give me the light..."

Yuan Wei was a little worried: "Should we call some experienced swordsmen and pen officials?"

"No need!" Changsun Gong shook his head resolutely, "I started out as a secretary, and when I look at Hu Ben, there is no one who is as skilled as me..."

Halfway through the sentence, Changsun Gong suddenly exclaimed, "Haha, it was really painted recently? Look at the word 'Tu', the stroke at the bottom was clearly redrawn later. If you look closely, you can see what was painted before.

The texture of handwriting..."

Perhaps because he was afraid that Yuan Wei could not see clearly, Changsun Gong held up the album and brought the first page close to the lamp: "It's even clearer under the light, can you see it?"

Really?

Yuan Wei was overjoyed, and just as he was about to compliment him, his eyes suddenly lit up.

No, it should be a sudden pain...

Although it was still more than a foot away from the flame of the lamp, the album suddenly caught fire. The fire not only happened suddenly, but also happened very quickly. It was like seeing a ghost, and there was only a soft "chi" sound.

, a burst of flame burst out and hit Yuan Wei's head and face.

"Ah...my eyes..."

Yuan Wei let out a scream and stepped back. He tripped on the futon under his feet, raised his head and fell back.

Changsun Gong was slightly better. His eyes were not hurt, but his beard was burned.

He was startled and immediately lost his registration and slapped his beard with his hand. He was still shouting urgently: "Get water quickly..."

The book almost fell onto the table, and there was a "bang" sound, and a ball of fire appeared out of thin air and went straight to the rafters.

The two notebooks on the table were instantly ignited, as if they were poured with kerosene. In the blink of an eye, the entire case was on fire.

Where can I get water?

Although the government hall is surrounded by stone walls, the roof is built with wooden beams and rafters. It is also covered with straw mats woven from reed poles, and then the outer layer is plastered with mud and paved with tiles.

I don’t know how many years of use the reed pole was, but it was no longer dry. When it was ignited by the flames, it immediately caught fire.

Several subordinate officials who were waiting aside were so frightened that they dragged Changsun Gong and Yuan Wei and ran away.

"The water is leaking... put out the fire quickly..."

The sound was so shrill that Yuan Yuan in the courtyard next door was so startled that he started to slap the table and get up.

When he ran out of the office hall, he saw billowing black smoke rising from the recruitment office across the wall, and flames shooting out from the roof. It was obvious that he was too late to save him.

Yuan Yuan's face darkened and he shouted loudly: "Go and see, is there anyone trapped?"

Just as an official responded, he suddenly heard Yuan Wei yelling and scolding: "Li Chengzhi, how dare you plot to kill me? Grandpa and you are incompatible..."

Was it Li Chengzhi who set the fire?

How is that possible?

He left Jinyong City two moments ago and entered the palace to file a complaint with His Majesty. What does this fire have to do with him?

Suspicious, Yuan Yuan pointed at his subordinates: "Hurry up and send people to put out the fire. If there are any injuries, send them to the hospital as soon as possible... Well, let's find two people who know about it. I want to ask: Everything is fine, why did the fire suddenly break out?
