C23 Calm down Anger
On the winter night when Bei Feng shouted, Manchu royal family had occupied a treasured feng shui land on the side of the Taihang Mountains for over a hundred years. This was the best sealed-off mountain in human history, and could be said to be the strictest soil and water conservation plan that one could imagine. In the face of strict imperial authority, even if Old people took a straw stick from inside, he would still be beheaded.
It was obvious that under such a strong protection, the forest on the mountain would definitely not be lush. The evergreen trees were natural torches, and the oily trunks of the trees were the best fuel for the fire.
The crackling sounds of the mountain fire lingered on the mountain. Bei Feng did his best to bring enough oxygen into the fire, causing the thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground to be completely dried up by the sun. Just a tiny bit of the fire would be enough to turn it into a prairie fire.
The sound of the gong and Bullhorn could be heard everywhere, and countless terrified crowd ran out from the Barracks Protecting Barracks and the surrounding Manchu. Each of them carried a broken bucket and drove a simple and crude water dragon carriage as they rushed towards the fire site as if their lives depended on it.
"It's the Tai Ling! It was Yongzhen … "Oh, ancestor, why did it start burning just like that …"
"A death sentence. This is all a death sentence. The Royal Tomb is on fire, we can't all live …"
"Quick, charge up and cut down the trees and shrubs …" "Do not let the fire spread to the Ming Mansion and the main hall …"
The twenty thousand guards and tens of thousands of Wu Tie were charging up the mountain like crazy ants. Under the threat of death, they exploded with an endless number of combat power. Furthermore, Manchu was one hundred percent of those present. How could they not be interested in his resting place?
At this time, Bethanath sir zhong, without caring about the weakness of his body, wrapped himself in a bearskin coat and climbed onto the roof. Looking at mountain who was shining brightly in the distance, his head felt dizzy.
"Don't burn into the main hall, don't …" Before he could finish his sentence, the old casket directly fell into Heels monkey's arms.
At this time, Shi Dakai and Liu Lang were already stunned. Even though they had already mentally prepared themselves beforehand, when the back mountain of Tai Ling had already been completely turned into a flaming mountain, the survivors were all dumbfounded.
That night, all of the surrounding Villages fell into a sleepless night. The Eight Banner Hippos galloped wildly through every Villages, forcing every single labourer to go save the fire. The entire Mausoleum of Qing Xi had turned into a chaotic whirlpool.
"Haha …" Hahaha … "Hahahaha …" Liu Lang laughed so hard that he went mad. "You've got guts. You've got guts. Before, I looked down on Military Advisor a little, but today, I'm completely convinced. Military Advisor, you've got guts …" gray beardanggang even knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times.
"Mr. Xiao, I will apologize if you have offended me in the past …" Shi Dakai shook his head with a bitter smile. At this time, rustling sounds came from the forest across the way, along with the cries of the Frigid Sparrows.
"Mister is back! "Teacher is back …" As they spoke, a few figures followed Liu Lang into the darkness. Not long later, the soldiers managed to carry Xiao Letian out. Shi Da Kai thought that the Military Advisor was injured, but upon walking in, he realized that his brothers were too excited. Carrying the Military Advisor without touching the ground, they walked for tens of miles on the mountain road.
"Prince, what's the view of this fire?" Xiao Letian said in a smug voice.
"It is indeed spectacular!" However, I don't understand why mister only burns the back mountain and not the Ming Lou and the main hall. Isn't that even more spectacular? " Shi Dakai asked.
Xiao Letian shook his head when he heard that. "I can't. Our goal is to use Manchu royal family to get rid of Lian Er, and also to prove our abilities to people like wuxianlian transformation, so that they won't dare to betray us for the rest of their lives."
"Remember, our goal is not to fight to the death with the Manchu right now. Have you forgotten the plan I told you about before? What we want now is to keep a low profile and make a fortune without saying a word. If we burn down Ming Lou and the main hall, the Northern Capital City would go crazy. We should at least give him some face … "
Xiao Letian was right, the entire plan was to borrow a knife to kill, but they couldn't drive the knife crazy. If they really destroyed the buildings on the surface of Tai Ling, the Forbidden City would really send their troops to kill them.
Xi Ling was not that far away from the Yi County. It was around 30 li and people could see the light from the west sky. After experiencing that night of chaos, people did not dare to go out on the streets. However, each and every one of them secretly went up to the roof to look at the red flames in the west.
As for wuxianlian transformation, he was also standing on top of the city wall, looking in the direction of Xiling. Liu County Order could hear the sound of his teeth chattering. He also felt that his hands and feet were gradually turning cold. He finally understood what kind of ship he was on and from that moment on, he no longer dared to betray his master.
The news of Tai Ling's Mountain Flame had already spread to Beijing almost by the evening of the second day. The Ministry of Internal Affairs did not dare to delay and quickly reported it to Kaiser and empress dowagers. At this time, Emperor Tongzhi was only nine years old, and the actual power of the Empire was entirely in the hands of empress dowagersson and Empress Mother, the two emperors of Ci An.
When Ci Xi heard that such a huge incident had occurred in the Tai Ling during the new year, he was infuriated and immediately ordered to lock down the dozen or so high-ranking mausoleum guards, including Lian Lian'er. However, Ci An was just as gentle and innocent as ever, as he did not want to cause too much trouble. He only ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate everything in detail before making any plans after everything had been investigated thoroughly.
"Why should Sisters be angry? Let Slave investigate. If it's just a fire accident, then we shouldn't make too much of a fuss. This year, Nanjing will be easily conquered. It's a festive day for all. It's not nice to have too much trouble …" Wu Tie was slightly sniffing the fragrance of the tea in his hand with his enameled fingernails. His elegant posture was so elegant that it made women go crazy.
Ci Xi sighed in his heart, but he still had to give Ci An face. After all, he was the oriental palace Empress Mother, and he was only Empress Mother from the West Palace.
"Big Sister, don't be so kind in the future. If you don't treat these Slave ruthlessly, they will turn their heads and kick their nose at you. Look at the clasp's words, a huge fire burned for a whole day and night, even the main hall was burnt. If you don't punish them harshly, there will only be more and more of these things happening in the future …"
"It's the new year, it's better to make peace …" Ci An still had a face of serenity, he didn't answer Ci Xi's question at all.
That night, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to rush to the West Tomb overnight. However, when they arrived at the West Tomb the next day, they found that Lian'er was no longer able to afford a stroke.
As for the others, they could not provide any clues, and only Bethanath sir zhong's few men unintentionally reported the incident where Yi County messed with bandit to Ministry of Internal Affairs officer.
A few of the higher ups of the Ministry of Internal Affairs heard that the Yi County City was making a ruckus? Now that he was happy, since he could hook up with the local security, it would be even better. However, when they looked for the officials of the county to verify the situation, they found that Bethanath sir zhong had long offended all the officials of the county.
"Guys, please understand. bandit is not here. It's Second Master's Daughter who tried to snatch Old Manager Fan Shang away. tiger chick's best friend was the USA two evil spirits. After a while, they started a conflict …"
"I saw the entire city's lockdown on bandit with my own eyes that night. Xiling Guard transferred over 200 + people, making the city fall apart, but what happened in the end? Other than the Pot House's fat storekeeper, who is a great bandit, there is no other bandit. "
"Mr. Xiao? Are you asking about Xiao Letian? After the incident, Pastor Liu of the Northern Capital City sent people to quickly deliver a piece of identity paper, and all the twists and turns were in Mandarin, and finally there was the seal of their church. Although I do not recognize the words on it, but I heard from the men of the Escort Office that they were really the Kunlun slaves that were invited from the East Crossing Folk Lane … "
"Snatching a commoner? And Mr. Xiao? Wasn't this a joke? Wu Tie's face was as white as white jade, and he was even prettier than a playboy. daughter, who was the one who hooked Fan Lian, had taken the bait. I heard that … Hehehe, I heard that they were already rolling around together in mountain. The one who really wants to snatch the person is Bethanath sir zhong … "
"I say, the few Shangguan officials of Ministry of Internal Affairs, are not the words that I am speaking harshly. Bethanath sir zhong is already that old, and he's always after women instead of taking good care of his body. This isn't the way to protect a woman …"
The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the rest were all stunned. They had not expected that Lian Lian Er would actually be so badly off. None of the officials in the entire county had agreed on this. No matter if it was their backstabs or threats, these officials all said that Bethanath sir zhong was wrong. In the end, the leaders were so angry that they started patting the Table.
"No matter what, is it true that Killy-Wolf Col is making trouble for bandit? ~ 200 ~ 300 bandit besieging Caravan? Don't forget that Fan Ru is at Beijing, and we also asked him before … "
What was even more unexpected was that wuxianlian transformation, who was famous for being a coward, had managed to withstand the pressure at that moment. He cupped his hands and said, "adults's question is, if there were two or three hundred bandit in this district, then why is it that there has never been a case before?" "Then does a large group of people need money to eat, drink, and take care of their food?"
"I sent constable head and Wang Hu to scout the area after the crime was committed, but they turned out to be just a bunch of passing bandit. God knows if they are wandering to Shanxi or the hot river. "If the supervisor doesn't believe it, then we'll bring people to find him in the mountains …"
With that, wuxianlian transformation actually flicked her sleeve and left. This made the Ministry of Internal Affairs grandpa go crazy. How dare a small Han Chen, a seventh grade county magistrate, be so bold? Just wait for me to return to the Beijing so I can deal with you. You actually dare to act so arrogantly in front of Zhou Steel, do you really think you are Ceng Titou, Brothers, and Wu Dao?
Ministry of Internal Affairs grandpa's anger only lasted for half a day. That night, when wuxianlian transformation brought Grand Master to meet some of the executives secretly, the dark clouds in the sky finally dissipated.
Large chunks of mutton fat jade, Semen Orientale, three foot tall coral, and even a whole box of gold were thrown out.
"Liu County Order is too polite. What happened in the day was too excessive. After all, empress dowagers was alarmed. We were also helpless …" He still had a stinky face during the day, but now he was smiling like an old chrysanthemum.
The danger was solved now. A hundred thousand taels of silver was enough to turn an arson into an accident fire. In the end, they caught a few old Protectors who were about to die from illness. As for Bethanath sir zhong, he had suffered a stroke, so there was no way to investigate it in depth. He could only return to the capital to report everything and obey the Holy Judgement.
Ci Xi was obviously very angry with this conclusion, but there was nothing he could do about Ci An's words that made her lose all her temper.
"It's just a fire in the mountains. Even if I kill all of them, I won't be able to do anything about it. It's already the end of the month, so it's better to make peace …" In addition, Ceng Guofan is going to report to the capital for a job after the new year, so Sisters should think about this matter a little more! " Ci Xi immediately fell silent.
In the Daqing Dynasty, burning eyebrows was Ceng Guofan, Brothers and Liu Tie's 500 thousand army. It was much more important than the fire in Tai Ling.
