Time Travel: Unrivaled in the Tang Dynasty

Fire phoenix soars into the sky!

A fire broke out in Wannian Palace, and the fire, fueled by the wind, became out of control!

On the second day, news came out that Wannian Palace had caught fire and the newlywed wife of Minister of Personnel Changsun Chong, Princess Changle, was burned to death!

"Brother Ye! Don't be impulsive!"

Yuchi Baolin tightly grabbed Ye Haoran, who had a murderous look on his face!

At this moment, he was filled with regret!

If I hadn't been so cautious last night and had forcibly taken Changle away, perhaps she wouldn't have died!

"Don't worry! Baolin, I just want to go and take a look!"

Ye Haoran gently patted Yuchi Baolin on the shoulder!

"Then I'll go with Brother Ye!"

"No need! Baolin! The Changsun family has been hated by you and me for going to Wannian Palace together yesterday. I'm worried that they will do something secretly. You'd better be on guard early!"

After Ye Haoran finished speaking, he turned around, mounted his horse, and galloped all the way. In the time it took to stick of incense, he arrived at Wannian Palace!

The Wannian Palace, which was decorated with lights and full of joy yesterday, is now a scorched earth and broken walls!

Who set the fire?

The first person Ye Haoran thought of was the Changsun family. However, even if Changsun Chong did not love Changle, there was no need to set fire. After all, the crime of murdering the princess was enough to ruin the Changsun family!

Walking in the hall filled with ashes, Ye Haoran was puzzled!

"Marshal Ye!"

Li Xiuning walked over quickly! She was the general of the Jinwu Guard, responsible for patrolling the inner city and maintaining public security!

Now that the Wannian Palace has caught fire, she must investigate it personally!

"Xiuning!"

"long time no see!"

The two of them almost said the same thing!

"I thought Marshal Ye was really left in Khitan by a beauty!"

"Someone wanted to keep me here, but they weren't some pretty lady, they were two old men!"

"how do I say this?"

Li Xiuning was a little confused!

"I'll tell you slowly later! How is the investigation of the fire in Wannian Palace going?"

"There are no signs of human intervention. It seems like a fire from the sky, but there was no thunder last night!"

"Did Changle really get burned to death?"

Ye Haoran's voice trembled a little!

Li Xiuning frowned:

"I don't know. When I rushed over, the fire had been brought under control and the Changsun family had already left. I heard that Prime Minister Changsun went to the palace to plead guilty this morning! At the same time, news of Changle's death spread!"

"This matter has nothing to do with the Changsun family!"

Ye Haoran clenched his fist!

"But now the biggest suspect is you!"

"it's me?"

Ye Haoran was stunned for a moment!

Li Xiuning stroked the hair beside her ears:

"Yesterday at the wedding, you questioned Changle, just like a lover who couldn't get the love he wanted!"

"I……"

Ye Haoran was speechless for a moment. Was his performance so obvious?

"I'm just afraid that Changle was forced!"

Ye Haoran’s pale explanation!

In the imperial study, Li Zhi slammed the table and stood up, his face full of anger:

"Uncle! Where on earth did Changle go?"

"Your Majesty, calm down! Alas! It's all because my Changsun family is not so lucky! The princess turned into a phoenix and left. I don't know where she went!"

Changsun Wuji's face was filled with grief!

Even he himself found such an absurd explanation unbelievable, but that was the fact!

"Those who should stay have left, and those who should leave have come back! This really makes me upset!"

Li Zhi stood up and paced around in annoyance!

"I think it's not a bad thing for Marshal Ye to come back! As far as I know, the Tubo army attacked Marshal Yuchi's central army yesterday, and the old marshal was seriously injured! I'm afraid his life is in danger! Now is a time when the army's morale is unstable, and Marshal Ye's return may just be able to stabilize the army's morale!"

"Can……"

"Your Majesty, are you worried that Marshal Ye has some grudges?"

"How can he not be resentful if the Khitan ambushed and killed him and withdrew 20,000 Zhechongwei? If I give him the military power, I will be uneasy!"

"The Khitan ambush has nothing to do with Your Majesty. As for withdrawing the Zhechongwei, all you need to do is make Yang Wei admit that he withdrew his troops privately! Your Majesty, don't forget that he still has a weak spot that is in your hands!"

Li Zhi's eyes lit up!

Yes! It is said that the woman from the Imperial Medical Bureau has a close relationship with him!

"Uncle! Yang Wei, you go and deal with it. As for Changle...you can handle the funeral tomorrow!"

"According to the order!"
