Unfortunately, things are far trickier than imagined.
The imperial capital is the center of Daxia, with frequent business and trade exchanges. Large caravans come from all over the north and south, and it can be said that hundreds of companies compete with each other.
With such a huge flow of people, it is obviously impossible to monitor them all.
Searching or shutting down trade will only cause panic among the people, which is tantamount to asking for trouble.
For two days in a row, still to no avail.
A tea shed.
Qin Yun walked out of the palace, wearing black casual clothes, and drank tea here.
There was a huge flow of people and it was very lively.
"Your Majesty, there is no trace of the sesame oil. There are two possibilities. One is that the people from Dongchang have not come for the time being, and the other is that they used special methods to cover up the smell." Jin Zhu reported softly.
Qin Yun frowned: "What about He Wuji's true identity?"
Jin Zhu said: "I looked through the animal skin book and finally compared the population of the Yi people, and found that He Wuji was probably a fugitive from a clearing mission of the imperial court thirty years ago."
"His father killed many people for profit, but Your Majesty, these things have nothing to do with the Wei people and are their private behaviors."
He explained quickly, fearing that he would be implicated.
Qin Yun did not answer.
Instead, he sneered: "That makes sense. This He Wujiqiang is still a sinful descendant. He has a grudge against the imperial court and me."
"An old dog, trying to overthrow the world, huh!"
"Does he have any relatives in the Wei tribe's territory?"
Jinzhu cupped his hands and said, "Yes!"
"But we have cut off many layers of relationships. We are not close relatives. I guess people like He Wuji won't care."
As he said this, he looked ugly and said angrily.
"This piece of shit stole the treasures of my tribe and used them against the emperor. It's really hateful!"
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth angrily: "Your Majesty, we must catch him and torture him in every possible way!"
Qin Yun glanced at him, half smiling.
This guy was only angry for himself. He clearly felt sorry for his precious ancient method.
"I ask you again, what other information does this He Wuji have?"
Hearing this, Jin Zhu fell into a long silence.
He hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, I heard something from the old man of the Wei tribe, but I don't know if it will work."
"A letter came from deep in the mountains, saying that He Wuji is an original member of the Wei tribe, called Tixiong, and his eyes are very easy to distinguish."
"He was born to brother and sister. He has been disabled since he was a child... It is a miracle that he survived."
"The eyes were what was left with him throughout his life, and one of them was gray."
"This matter is almost his lifeblood. If anyone mentions it, he will go crazy and regard it as a shame."
Born between brother and sister?
Qin Yun was surprised. If a close relative gives birth to a child, the child will either be disabled or die young, let alone siblings.
For a moment, his eyes started to wander.
Will this matter become an important turning point?
If used well, He Wuji's psychological defense might be defeated!
Thinking.
Sudden!
With a bang, a large hole was blown out of the beam of a house.
The people passing by were frightened and screamed.
Immediately afterwards, black smoke billowed and flames shot into the sky!
"ah!"
"There's a fire, there's a fire!"
A woman exclaimed, looking nervous.
Immediately, many people spontaneously went to put out the fire.
But the flames burned very fast, even faster than the one in Yihongyuan, and swallowed up several houses in an instant, which was horrifying!
Qin Yun in the tea shed suddenly stood up!
His face was very ugly, and the fire looked like a masterpiece from Dongchang.
He pinched his fist and growled: "What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's probably just a common fire." The Imperial Guard replied fearfully.
Because the imperial capital has set up many barriers, if the fire was caused by Dongchang, it would be a slap in the face.
Moreover, they cannot bear His Majesty's wrath.
Qin Yun lifted his collar with one hand and roared: "Have you seen any fire that can make such a loud explosion? It can burn a building in such a short time!!"
The imperial guards were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were about to cry without tears.
At this time, the royal guards came one after another.
A large number of guards also came to protect Qin Yun, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The atmosphere in the entire street suddenly intensified!
Faced with the threat of fire and heavenly punishment to be carried out by Dongchang, everyone's nerves are tense now that they see the fire.
At this time.
A bolt of lightning like a chain of fire broke through the sky, and there was a roar, lightning and thunder!
The daylight quickly dimmed and the wind blew violently.
Plant ash was flying in the air, and due to the irrigation of the wind, the burning of the house became more intense.
Old Feng's heart skipped a beat, and his expression changed dramatically!
"not good!"
"The wind is picking up, which is helping the fire."
"Your Majesty, could this be the time when the Dongchang Eagle Dogs perform their mission and they want to burn down the imperial capital?"
Hearing this, the imperial guards and the imperial guards all turned pale.
His eyes showed fear.
Impossible?
Can such intensive defense and inspections still fail to prevent the enemy from invading?
How did that sesame oil get in?
Feng Lao was unusually anxious: "Your Majesty, I will escort you back to the palace first!"
"No!" Qin Yun shouted.
With angry eyes, he said: "When the wind blows, it will rain. People in Dongchang are not so stupid!"
"Go put out the fire for me immediately!"
"quick!"
Old Feng's face wrinkled: "Your Majesty, just in case..."
"Nothing unexpected!"
"I can guarantee that this is not the time for He Wuji to take action!"
"quick!"
With that said, Qin Yun rushed out immediately, going against the flow of people, towards the place where the fire started.
"His Majesty!"
Seeing this, all the Jin Yiwei's scalps exploded and they quickly followed.
Feng Lao can only protect him personally, even though this is very dangerous.
Once the Dongchang is arranged in advance, the imperial capital will really turn into a red river of blood.
Soon, the incident happened!
A large number of officers and soldiers also rushed over quickly.
Countless people received water and began to put out the fire.
Cries, exclamations, and discussions are endless!
Qin Yun's cheeks reflected the firelight, and looked so strange under the gray sky!
In front of him, several pavilions were burning together.
The tongue of fire was like a long dragon, reaching straight into the sky, burning everything, and the crackling sound made people feel as if these pavilions were about to collapse at the same time.
"His Majesty!"
"The fire is too strong, and with the wind, we can't put it out in a short time. You'd better leave first, it's too dangerous!"
The official in the government office said to Qin Yunde eagerly.
His face was completely black and his clothes were almost burned.
Qin Yun took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were calm and calm.
"Where is the nameless person?"
Wuming handed over his hand: "I have a humble position!"
"You can take the people from the government and draw a line of land as a prison to enclose the burning areas of several houses."
"Then cut off the connection between the houses, dig three inches into the ground, hollow out a half-meter-long spacing, pour water in, and let the people help."
"The fire can be controlled."
Wuming said nothing, and said seriously: "Yes!"
The official at the government office panicked at this moment and immediately led others to follow him, falling several times along the way.
Can this really stop the flames like a great beast?
Qin Yun's faint eyes swept over the people watching in the imperial capital, trying to spot one or two people who looked suspicious!
Often the perpetrators of crimes exist among them.
Unfortunately, there was no gain.
He could only wait and wait for the fire to end.
Among the devastation, there may be some unknown clues remaining!
