In the middle of the night, Prince Qi's mansion is on fire!

Gong Jue watched the flames rise, especially in summer, when the fire was unstoppable, it burned down one-fifth of the houses, including the one where Huang Jie used to live.

His face was extremely gloomy, watching the firefighting troops coming in and out of the imperial army, he stood on the edge of the fire scene, his face was flushed, and the depths of his eyes were even more blood red.

"My lord!" Luo Qi knelt beside him, "The person who set the fire was chased, and he killed himself by biting poison!"

At this time, Luo Xiaoqi also rushed over and knelt down, "Report! My lord, many people have written to impeach you, urging the emperor to take back the power of the imperial army in your hands! Do you need to intercept it?"

"Report—Your Majesty! There are spies in the Forbidden Army barracks, sparking infighting, should they be executed on the spot?!"

"Report! My lord, the isolation zone has been dug, and the fire will not spread again!"

The fire was still churning, they were just kneeling here, they all felt it was hard to breathe, their faces were hot, but Gong Jue's expression didn't change, he just said coldly when he heard the feedback one after another.

"Order everyone to come here and save this house."

"What about the other houses?" One must know that the one that caught fire was the prince's study. At the beginning, the prince moved to this corner to accompany the princess, but he never moved away... The study is important, don't we need rescue? ?

Gong Jue closed his eyes to hide the hostility in his eyes, and said coldly.

"Let it burn."

At this time Luo Qi was pushed by Xiao Qi, stood up and said.

"My lord, fighting the fire is not the most important thing right now, there are still many people waiting for your order!"

Gong Jue just glanced at them.

"What did you just say?"

Everyone fell down!

But there was no way, they still gritted their teeth and said it again, and then Gong Jue's eyes moved away from the room where Huang Jie lived in front of him, and fell on them.

"The king who set the fire is very clear, there is no need to investigate. There is no need to stop those who impeach the king. Let them impeach. If possible, let our people also impeach the king. As for the imperial army, the king has his own arrangements. no need to worry."

Luo Qi didn't understand why their own people also wanted to impeach the prince?

But he didn't ask, he just gritted his teeth and said, "Those impeached people usually take our benefits, but now they say they will defect!"

Gong Jue remained silent, which was expected, after all, all along, except for his confidant ministers, other courtiers only used money to win them over, and never formed a large-scale clique for personal gain.

Because he made an oath not to claim the title of emperor, so it's fine if he doesn't conflict with the prince. Once he breaks with the prince, will those people help the future emperor, or a prince who has sworn not to be the emperor? Anyone can tell the difference.

"My lord, since the crown prince has bullied us, how do we fight back?"

According to the thinking of these servants, and the usual style of the prince, he felt that if the prince made a move, the prince would definitely lose miserably!

But to his surprise, Gong Jue just shook his head.

"hold on."

"Wait for what?" Someone asked subconsciously.

Gong Jue watched the fire gradually go out, and his expression eased slightly.

Waiting for the emperor's decision... He was afraid that if he stayed in the capital, the land would be washed with blood.

Seeing that Gong Jue didn't move, they were all a little aggrieved.

Luo Qi frowned and said, "I don't know why the prince suddenly went crazy! During this time, he kept causing trouble for us. A few days ago, the riots in Zhao Prison must have been caused by the prince! What exactly is he going to do?"

"Exactly! He also took all the money away from Yinzhuang, and with his move, many big orders were taken away, and Yinzhuang suffered a huge loss!"

Xiaoqi said angrily.

Gong Jue actually smiled at this moment, with a hint of complacency in his eyes.

"You are right."

"Um?"

"Um?!"

"He's really crazy."

And Gong Jue was busy putting out the fire, and the palace was panicking!

The ground was full of tossed folders and documents, while the emperor sat on the dragon chair with his forehead resting on his hands, feeling indescribably tired.

Chang Xi hurriedly drove out all the palace servants who were kneeling below, and persuaded them earnestly.

"Your Majesty, your body is important..."

"Hehe..." Gong Cheng, who lowered his head and rubbed his head, let out a deep laugh, which echoed in the hall late at night, a little creepy.

"Gong Che really doesn't make a move, but it's amazing when he makes a move..." Gong Cheng sneered, "He provoked Gong Jue recklessly. I'm afraid Gong Che would be happy to have a fight with Gong Jue, okay! Very good, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, they should fight!"

When Chang Xi heard this, his whole old face wrinkled together, "Your Majesty... Your Highnesses... will be careful..."

"Properly?" Gong Cheng's voice suddenly rose! "Gong Che's withdrawal of capital has already made the people panic. The imperial army is fighting among themselves, and the palace is even more on fire tonight! What's the next step? I'm afraid we'll just have to wait until we see each other?!"

At this time, a little eunuch sent the booklet overnight, Chang Xi glanced at it and didn't want to submit it, but Gong Cheng had already snatched it, and after reading several books in a row, his face turned blue with anger, and his laughter became colder and harsher!

"Okay...Okay! There are so many impeachment documents, I'm afraid there will be more tomorrow morning! This is already clear!"

Chang Xi was holding the booklet in his hands, like holding a hot potato, the two His Royal Highnesses were in a quarrel, and the whole Zhaoyang Hall was like a fire cooking oil, ready to burn at any moment.

At this time, he missed the princess very much. It would be great if the princess was here. With her here, it is absolutely impossible for such a thing to happen!

At this time, after Gong Sheng lost his temper, he calmed down a bit.

He really can't interfere in this matter, now Gong Che is just looking for Gong Jue to vent his anger, if he intervenes, the situation will only get worse.

It is even more impossible to stop Gong Jue from counterattacking. Once the pressure is hard and Gong Jue rebels, it will be an endless situation.

He still remembers that Gong Jue said to him: Father, you should thank sister Huang, without her, the entire royal family would be my enemy.

Now as long as he thinks about this sentence, he feels chills down his spine, fearing that Gong Jue will also go crazy along with him.

"Your Majesty... what should I do now?"

Chang Xi felt that this matter must be resolved before King Qi counterattacked.

It took a while for Gong Sheng to speak quietly.

"Didn't Gong Jue say he was going to build a national road? Let him go!"

"But..." Chang Xi was confused, but don't you still want King Qi to get married as soon as possible? Once he went to other places, it would be even more difficult to control.

"What else can I do..."

After Gong Sheng said this, he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

He is very clear in his heart that Gong Jue has been suppressed until now and he has not fought back because he refused his request to leave Beijing a few days ago, but now, the situation forced Gong Cheng to make a concession... He has his hands full.
