Huangfu Xiren was hung on the wall. Pheasant looked around at the warehouse full of grain and grass, and said, "Mr. Dou is so damn rich, there is so much grain."
The younger brother said: "These are bullshit. The brothers on the front line are fighting hungry, while they are hoarding food in the back."
"Hey, just give him a fire and he'll be done." Another boy said.
"Don't, it's such a waste."
"Shut up." Brother Pheasant interrupted them, looked at the unconscious Huangfu Xiren, and then asked: "How are the preparations over at Dabi?"
"It's almost done. Brother Dabi ordered people to set it on fire. It should be almost over."
Brother Pheasant nodded, "It's good to burn it. If you don't burn it, how can the court know that Dou has hidden so much food?"
At this moment, a younger brother ran over in a hurry.
"Brother Pheasant, it's not good. Brother Dabi and the others don't know what ignited something. The fire can't be controlled now and has spread!"
"What!"
Yiyangfang and Pingkangfang are close to each other. Both communities are engaged in recreational activities. Among known civilizations, Pingkangfang and Yiyangfang are equally famous. The main reason is that the biology teachers in the two communities are about the same level.
Competition is very fierce.
At the same time, these two communities are right next to Dongshi and are very popular.
Now that there is a fire in Yiyangfang, the female teachers in Pingkangfang are laughing so hard. Many girls are leaning against the window, looking at the black smoke and fire billowing not far away.
Their old sweetheart lay behind them, showing a face covered in sweat.
"Qiniang, the fire is so beautiful."
"That's what Lang Jun said." Qiniang glanced at the fire with charming eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, closed the window, and continued to teach the students biology lessons.
Down below, the landlady spat bitterly.
"It's best to burn those bitches to death!"
"Yes, burn those bitches to death!"
Today, the boss ladies of Pingkangfang are united as never before. Although they often have conflicts because of soliciting students on the street, they are especially united in front of the 'foreign enemy'.
There is no way, Datang's economy is in recession, it is not easy to make some money, and it will kill every competitor.
Especially, it is still the old rival Yiyangfang.
The raging fire rolled up and the waves of fire burned people.
The first to rush to the front line was the Chang'an Yamen officer, followed by the Jingzhao Prefecture Yin officer.
"Brother Wang, the people in Jingzhao Mansion are so awesome. They are not afraid of fire." Chang'an Yamen Officer A said with emotion when he saw the Jingzhao Mansion officers rushing into a Huazui House.
"Shit! You still have time to talk nonsense, your life is at stake!" Brother Wang yelled angrily, "It's more important to save people, brothers, come with me and rush in to save the girls in Huazuilou!"
"Ah..." Yamen servant Jia woke up and secretly cursed the people in Jingzhao Mansion for being cunning, and quickly followed the large troops and rushed in to rescue the girl.
The fire is getting stronger and stronger, taking advantage of the wind, and is likely to sweep through the entire Yiyangfang.
At this time, the Guards Army arrived, and with the influx of a large number of soldiers, the fire was finally stopped on the third day.
Even so, the entire Yiyangfang was extremely tragic, with nearly 60% of the houses burned to the ground.
Black smoke billowed up all over the sky, and passers-by supported each other, and there were endless mournful sounds.
Huangfu Wuyi had not slept for three days. After learning about the flood in Yiyangfang, he rushed to the scene as soon as possible to direct the rescue. However, he was still unable to save the damage and watched the fire get worse and worse.
Looking at the burning ruins all over the ground, Huangfu Wuyi wanted to cry but had no tears. It was over now, and the Punishment Department had to take the blame again.
The low-level officials and common people were under the control of the Ministry of Punishment. However, when bad things happened due to vicious fighting and misdeeds, how could the Ministry of Punishment escape its responsibility?
Not far away, Li Zhiyun's face was gloomy.
"What are you doing? How could you do this?" He looked at Li Zhen with an angry face.
Li Zhen's forehead was dripping with beads of sweat, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Your Highness, I have sent someone to question the people below."
"You'd better hurry up. If you can't find out the truth, I will be the one to blame!" Li Zhiyun said in a gloomy tone.
His original plan did not include burning down 60% of the houses in Yiyangfang. As Jing Zhaoyin, if such a mistake was made, Lao Li would definitely hold him accountable.
More importantly, how can we implement the follow-up plan if it is burned to ruins?
Originally, according to their plan, they should first expose the news that the Dou family had hoarded a large amount of food, bite Dou Jing into enriching his own pockets from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and then discover Huangfu Xiren at the scene, and then frame Dou Jing for what he did to deal with Huangfu Wuyi, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
The evil act of kidnapping.
The frame-up procedure is roughly as follows: taking advantage of the disagreement between Dou Jing and Huangfu Wuyi, and then convincing Dou Jing to jump over the wall, kidnap Huangfu Xiren, and force Huangfu Wuyi to stop pursuing the Dou family's caravan.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, this plan has a lot of loopholes, but Li Zhiyun did it deliberately. He hoped to bet on Lao Li's attitude towards Dou Jing through this matter.
If Lao Li really kept it secret from Dou Jing because Dou was leaning towards the prince, then even if there were obvious loopholes in this frame-up, Lao Li would take this opportunity to kill Dou Jing.
If Lao Li had no intention of taking action against the Dou family, no matter how perfect and flawless the plan was, it would not be able to achieve its goal in the end.
But now, 60% of Yiyangfang has been burned down. It can be called the largest fire in Gyeonggi since the founding of the People's Republic of China. It has a wide range of implications!
Under such a fire, the food was completely burned, so why frame it?
"By the way, how is Huangfu Xiren doing now?"
Li Zhen said: "Pheasant said that they did not take Huangfu Xiren with them when they escaped, so they should have been burned to death."
"Trash!" Li Zhiyun scolded.
The air was filled with pungent smoke, and soldiers and officers came and went carrying corpses one after another. It was so tragic that it was hard to watch.
At this moment, Chang'an Ling Dugu Huaien came over. Although Dugu Huaien's official career was not smooth and he was fired from the Chang'an Ling position, but later Dugu Zhen passed away. In order to comfort the Dugu family, Lao Li promoted his younger cousin and let him
Dugu Huaien made the order to return to Chang'an.
"Your Highness."
"What are the casualties?"
Dugu Huaien said: "Preliminary estimates suggest that nearly two hundred people were killed in the flames and more than four hundred were injured. If the flood had not occurred during the day, the casualties would have been even more serious."
Li Zhiyun rubbed his brows sadly and sighed lowly.
You have committed a sin.
"Can we find out the cause of the fire?"
Hearing this, Dugu Huaien's eyes flashed and he whispered: "It's indeed a bit strange. Your Highness, please come with me."
Everyone moved to another place.
There was a flame burning on a layer of black liquid. The flame seemed weak, but its burning power was very strong.
Dugu Huaien said: "After our investigation, we found that this should be the place where the fire first started. And this black water should be the source of the fire."
Blackwater?
Li Zhiyun didn't think it was black water. He squatted down, pulled out the dagger from his boot, lightly dipped the sharp blade into the black water and put it under his nose to smell it.
Damn black water, this is clearly kerosene with substandard technical content!
As the inventor of kerosene, Li Zhiyun knew whether it was kerosene when he smelled it.
No wonder the people below couldn't control the fire. They happened to burn kerosene when they were burning other things. As a result, the fire couldn't be controlled and affected the entire Yiyangfang.
No wonder something went wrong this time.
"This is not black water, this is kerosene from the Ministry of Industry."
"Kerosene?" Dugu Huaien was stunned at first, and then said in shock: "How is this possible? How could kerosene appear here?"
As the secret weapon of the Tang Dynasty's military, kerosene was always stored and protected.
Even under Li Zhiyun's regulations, every barrel of kerosene is registered with a label, making it absolutely impossible for ordinary people to obtain such a thing.
