Su Yiqing soon came with Xin'er.

Perhaps it was Qingwu's luck that today the mother of both families had a relationship with her. She only said that her mother had a sudden illness and needed to go back to the house to get the same medicinal oil prepared on weekdays. The mother didn't know that Qingwu's family had been driven to the outer courtyard. It was not a big deal, so she let her in.

After entering, she did not dare to go straight to the main courtyard where the princess lived, but went to find Xin'er first. Xin'er did not work today. When she heard about this, she felt that the situation was serious and quickly went to report to Su Yiqing quietly.

Su Yiqing put on a cloak and came out.

When they came to the wall of the courtyard, not to mention that Qing Wu and his daughter were born with a sensitive nose than others, even Su Yiqing and Xiner could clearly smell a strong smell of blood.

"What should I do? Princess, do you want to call the guards or guards in the mansion to go to the next door to see?" Xin'er suggested.

"It's too late. Next door is the Prince Cheng's Mansion. There is no friendship with the Princess Mansion. From knocking on the door to their Prince's Mansion, it may take a lot of time to investigate." Su Yiqing frowned and looked at the high courtyard wall, and then looked at Qing Wu and his son. The only things were she and Xin'er. She had already gone to see it.

Following Su Yiqing's eyes, Qingwu misunderstood and quickly pushed Qinggang: "Brother, hurry up and climb up the wall and take a look."

"It's dark and you can't see anything even if you climb up." Qing Wuniang stepped forward and said, "Prince, I have a quick way to avoid any trouble, look..."

Qing Wuniang pointed to a pile of broken tables and chairs in the corner of the wall.

This pile of rotten wood has no other purpose than to create fire... When she thought of the word "fire", Su Yiqing instantly understood that if she wanted to alarm others, setting fire was indeed the most effective and fastest way.

In ancient times, most wooden structures of houses had a great impact once they caught fire, so everyone was afraid of fire. They even patrol the streets and inspected them at any time. Once someone shouted that there was a fire, no matter whether it was true or false, people would rush out as soon as possible, which was much more effective than calling for an assassin.

Su Yiqing looked around. Apart from this little wood, there was no flammable material around them. She just raised a small fire, and then shouted at the top of her voice. The impact was not very big, and she didn't have time to hesitate. She nodded immediately.

Taking advantage of the gap between Qing Wuniang's ignition, Xin'er said: "Princess, you should avoid it quickly, so as not to have to give me some explanation when someone comes later."

Qingwu also became clever at this time and said, "Yes. Princess, if nothing happens, we will say that Xiaogang is greedy at night and wants to eat sweet potatoes."

Su Yiqing nodded. This was just an excuse, but if the fire was not big, no one would pursue it afterwards. At least in the princess's mansion, as long as she didn't pursue it, who dared to talk too much?

At this time, the fire had already risen. Qing Wuniang took out a bottle of oil from somewhere. She poured it on and added oil to the fire. The flames instantly spread and thick smoke came out. Su Yiqing and Xiner quickly flashed to the side.

Seeing the fire getting bigger, Qing Wuniang shouted in a voice, "It's a fire, put out the fire..."

In an instant, there were crowds of people, and many people were not wearing any clothes well, so they came here with basins, buckets, etc.

The earliest one was the guards of the Princess's Mansion.

The bearded guard commander asked, "What's going on?"

Qingwu was about to speak, but Qingwuniang snatched the conversation and said, "We just saw that there seemed to be something happening here, so we came over to take a look. I saw that there was a fire here. It seemed that someone was about to climb over the wall and run towards it."

The guards saw that the fire was not big and should be able to be put out soon, but if there were thieves, the matter would be hit. He immediately frowned and asked, "Did you really see clearly?"

Qing Wuniang said: "This is dark and my eyes are not very good. I look like a figure. Maybe it's a wild cat and a wild dog... I can't guarantee this..."

As he was speaking, a shrill scream suddenly came from a distance, the sound was too sharp, which overshadowed the rushing fire.

"Come, I've killed someone..."

The guard's commander changed his face and ordered: "Be careful everywhere."

Then there were a series of deployments, manual dispatches, etc.

Qingwu finally took advantage of the time when the guard commander stopped and said, "Brother Guard, it seems that something happened next door, don't you have to go and see it?"

The guard commander glanced at her with a sharp gaze, and Qingwu suddenly didn't dare to speak.

"Take two people next door to see, and report to the patrol yamen." The guard commander calmly ordered.

Su Yiqing took Xin'er and sneaked back quietly while the mansion was in chaos.

If such a big thing happens, someone will naturally report it later.

After returning to the room, after waiting for a moment, a maid came to report that there was a fire in the mansion. Originally, Madam Yin was on the night yard outside. Madam Yin felt that the princess had stopped. Since the fire was not big, it had been put out. As for what happened in other houses, there was no need to report urgently to wake up the princess. Xin'er pretended to be concerned and insisted on reporting, and Madam Yin naturally did not insist. This matter did not have much to do with her.

Su Yiqing summoned the guards who came to pass the message in and asked through the screen.

The guard was named Liao Chang. Those who could come in to deliver the message were all erotic people. They explained the situation in the mansion in a few words. It was just a pile of waste wood in the outer courtyard caught fire, and it was just a small fire. It was immediately put out, and some abandoned seats were burned and the courtyard wall was blackened. There was no loss of property. It was because the next door, Prince Cheng's mansion seemed to have died. The guard commander of the mansion had sent him to see it and he would know later."

Su Yiqing nodded and said, "You have handled this matter very well. Since you are neighbors, please pay more attention to what areas need help with in Prince Cheng's Mansion, and come back to report at any time."

Liao Chang took the order and left.

After a while, he hurried back and said, "Princess, Commander Wang captured two thieves."

"What thief?" Su Yiqing was shocked in an instant.

Liao Chang said: "It seems that the murder case in the Prince Cheng's Mansion was dangerous. They all held blood-stained knives. One of them committed suicide by taking poison, and the other was stopped by Commander Wang before he could do it. Commander Wang asked what to do?"

What to do? This is a difficult problem. Su Yiqing's mind quickly turned around. If she was ordinary robbery, murder or seeking revenge, she would have nothing to worry about. She would take poison when she was caught. Obviously, she was prepared. It was not like robbery or seeking revenge, which involved any internal grievances in the family. Then the more she knew, the more trouble it would be.

"Have the people from the Governor's Office come?" Su Yiqing asked.

Liao Chang replied: "He has arrived and is still searching everywhere in the Prince Cheng's Mansion. In addition, a large number of guards have also been lined up by the prince."

"Leave the person to the people in the governor's yamen." Su Yiqing really didn't want to get involved in such troubles. Since the people from the government came, I'll hand over the thief out.

"Princess, no." After hearing the news, Madam Li, who rushed over, heard this, had no time to salute, so she quickly spoke out to dissuade her, and then whispered, "Princess, I have something to talk to you."

Su Yiqing was actually a little confused, so she let Madam Li enter the inner room.

As soon as Madam Li entered, she immediately lowered her voice and said, "Princess, I have just walked all the way. I heard that many people have died in Prince Cheng's Mansion. It seems that this matter is extraordinary.

Of course, it is of course a big deal. Su Yiqing also thinks so, so she doesn't want to get involved in this matter.

Madam Li said, "Princess, don't blame me for being troublesome. I have been in the palace for many years and have seen such things. If the thief has not been captured, but it has been captured. The guard has already delayed a lot during the reporting period. It seems that outsiders know what we should know."

Su Yiqing understood what Madam Li meant. Sometimes, knowing that other people’s abilities are a sin. If you hand over someone like this and the other party wants to hide something, you will definitely try every means to wear it for her in the future. Since that is the case, it is better to make things clear and understand it. Even if someone is plotting against you, you will know what is going on.

"But this suspicion dares to enter the Prince Cheng's Mansion to kill people. He must be prepared and will not confess easily. If he still doesn't ask for help after the interrogation, wouldn't he be more honest?" Su Yiqing looked at Madam Li lightly.

Madam Li said frankly: "Princess, let me leave this matter to the old slave. I will stay in the torture room in the palace for a few days. After learning some small tricks, I will surely let the suspect confess."

The methods in the palace must be extraordinary. Su Yiqing nodded, "Since that's the case, there will be a nanny."

Madam Li took the order and left.

Su Yiqing called Xin'er and asked her to inquire again.

As soon as Xin'er left, a maid outside the door reported: "Princess, the prince is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was wearing a light robe and slow belt, his hair was dispersed, and he was tied with a brocade belt behind his head. Lian Yufeng, who seemed extremely handsome, walked in.

"Princess, are you okay?" Lian Yufeng walked over with concern and gently pulled Su Yiqing's hand.

"I'm fine before you come in." Su Yiqing looked at Lian Yufeng's familiar outfit and felt a little excited. This guy didn't know that he had just gotten off the woman's bed. Thinking of this, she pulled out the hand that was made by Lian Yufeng and said politely, "If the prince is just here to express his concern, then I appreciate it and I don't dare to disturb the prince, please go back."

Lian Yufeng felt a little embarrassed on his face, but he still said, "I heard that the thief was captured in the mansion?"

"Yes." Su Yiqing raised her eyebrows gently. Is this the purpose of his coming here?

Lian Yufeng nodded and said, "If the princess doesn't mind, I will leave this matter to me. What do you think?"

"In fact, I mind." Su Yiqing didn't want to refuse, "I hope the prince doesn't mind. This is the matter of my princess's mansion. I think it's better to separate some things from the two mansions."
