Chapter 759

Chapter 759

Meng Wenhao asked: "Is this all there is?"

The people looked at him strangely: "Aren't these enough?"

"Yeah, I thought there was a fire somewhere, but it turned out that the army was suppressing bandits in the mountains! That makes me relieved!"

The person next to me answered.

"With such a big fire, it wouldn't be possible for the army to burn down the bandits' stronghold, right?"

"Well done! Those bandits who deserve to be killed with a thousand cuts should all be burned to death!"

"that is......"

In the capital, the court's credibility was very strong.

As soon as the notice was posted, explaining the cause of the smoke, the people immediately believed it.

Their attention turned to the matter of suppressing bandits, and they discussed it enthusiastically.

Meng Wenhao listened to everyone's exchanges with one ear, but his eyes couldn't help but shift to the other side of the notice.

There is a new wanted notice posted on the public notice board, with a lifelike portrait of Gong Yangqian, and the bright red official seal is eye-catching.

"Is it really the fire set by the bandits?" Meng Wenhao felt a little uneasy.

But he didn't say anything. He took the little boy and squeezed out of the crowd with difficulty.

It must be said that the response of the Northern Qin government was very fast.

Not long after the thick smoke started to rise, the people were panicked.

The government quickly posted a notice. Regardless of whether what was written on the notice was true or not, at least the people believed it, and the panicked people quickly calmed down.

After a while, the crowds crowded on the street dispersed in twos and threes.

Those who are in a hurry hurry on their way, and those who are going home go home.

Those who do business continue to do business.

The capital soon returned to a busy and lively scene of people and flows.

Meng Wenhao led the little boy through the street and stopped in front of a steaming steamed bun shop. Looking at the fat white buns in the steamer, he subconsciously swallowed: "How much does a bun cost?"

at the same time.

A hired green carriage drove slowly through the street behind him.

Xiao Lingyue took Beibei and Qingluo to sit in the car. She lifted the curtains with one hand and looked at the government notice: "It seems that the fire is really in Hulang Mountain."

Beibei asked: "Mother, is there any problem with this?"

Xiao Lingyue put down the car curtains and muttered: "It's hard to say. The weather has been dry recently, with very little rain, and the bandit stronghold is built in the mountains. If a normal army is suppressing bandits, it is impossible to set fire to it easily."

It is no joke if a large-scale wildfire spreads and affects people in surrounding towns and villages.

The person responsible for leading the troops cannot shoulder this responsibility.

Therefore, Xiao Lingyue's intuition was that the fire should not have been set by the bandit-suppressing army.

Official notices are only used to appease the people.

The above statement is half true and half false. We still need to collect intelligence to know what is going on.

Beibei didn't care so much. He just said thankfully: "Fortunately, mother came back early! Otherwise, such a big fire would have been dangerous."

Qingluo nodded in agreement: "That's what the young master said."

Xiao Lingyue smiled helplessly, feeling a little warm in her heart.

"By the way, miss, where are we going now?" Qingluo asked in confusion.

"go home."

Half an hour later.

The green-covered carriage stopped in front of a large mansion on South Street.

Qing Luo got off the carriage and raised her head with a dull look on her face.

This mansion looks majestic and majestic, not inferior to the Shen Mansion in the slightest. There are two white jade lions squatting in front of the door. The red door with copper nails shows its magnificence. The only flaw is that there is no plaque on the door.

"Little Miss..." Qing Luo's voice was a little weak and she said in disbelief, "Are you sure this is where it is?"
