The general's wife is too naughty, she starts to flirt with him

The fire in the Cining Palace was very big. In addition to feeling the blazing heat, I could also smell the faint smell of kerosene.

This didn't seem like an accidental fire, but more like a premeditated one.

The entire Cining Palace was engulfed in flames.

All the available personnel in the palace have been transferred here to put out the fire.

But the fire still burned.

"Your Majesty, you'd better take shelter for a while. It's not safe here!" Eunuch Guo advised anxiously.

Li Jianguo's face now looked terribly gloomy.

Today should have been a good day for inheritance.

The full moon, together with finding a good mentor, are both extremely important days in life.

However, first Princess Anguo fell into a coma for unknown reasons. Now the entire Cining Palace has been reduced to ashes.

How will future historical books evaluate succession?

How can he reassure the people of the world when his chosen successor has been plagued by misfortunes since birth? !

The person behind this is really vicious and calculating!

Li Jianguo felt like he was about to get angry.

"No need!" Li Jianguo waved his sleeves to interrupt Eunuch Guo's words of advice.

In this situation, what's the point of escaping?

When he saw Shan Li coming with his men, he asked directly, "How is your investigation going?"

Shan Li first arranged for the Royal Guards to put out the fire, then bowed and saluted and replied, "There are some clues."

After searching out so many private things, there must be some gain.

Shan Li glanced at the still burning Cining Palace and said, "I think the fire in Cining Palace at this time is not a coincidence, but more like it was intentional. The Queen Mother does not seem like someone who would set herself on fire."

"I spared her life because I didn't want any trouble, and I didn't want the country to be in turmoil. However, I forgot that a centipede is still alive even after it dies. I was careless."

The Cining Palace was burned down to its current state, but Li Jianguo never thought that the Queen Mother would disappear along with the palace.

Several bodies were carried out of the Cining Palace, but none of them belonged to the Empress Dowager.

"Your Majesty, you should go back first. The queen is delicate, the little prince is young, and Ah Ci is unconscious now. They all need to be protected."

"I will stay and get to the bottom of this matter."

Shan Li's words were very clear. In the current imperial palace, His Majesty's side was the safest place. Only by gathering those who needed protection together could limited resources be better utilized.

"This matter must be investigated thoroughly. No matter who is involved, I will allow you to execute first and report later!"

After Li Jianguo said this, even Eunuch Guo bent his body even more.

Your Majesty is very angry.

So many things have happened when Your Majesty is at his most proud. This is simply a slap in Your Majesty's face.

"Wei Chen obeys!"

Li Jianguo finally left the fire scene first. He ordered his personal guards to move Princess Anguo to Kunning Palace.

The imperial physician and guards also accompanied him.

After a whole night of firefighting, the fire in the Cining Palace was finally put out.

The entire Cining Palace was basically reduced to a pile of scorched earth.

While cleaning up the fire scene, a total of 23 charred bodies were carried out.

This is consistent with the number of people in the Cining Palace on weekdays.

There were a total of twenty-three people, including the guards, palace servants and the Empress Dowager herself.

Although the number of people was correct, Shan Li just didn't believe that the Empress Dowager was among these charred corpses.

"Feng Er, take this token and go outside the palace to gather people. Bring all the people from Jingzhao Prefecture, the Patrol Battalion, the Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Justice here."

"Also, transfer the people from the Ministry of Industry here as well!"
