The fire in Mingyue Palace was only extinguished at dawn the next day, and the palace has long been accustomed to the endless disasters in Mingyue Palace.
Hearing the news of the burning of the Mingyue Palace, almost everyone's first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief, maybe the bad luck of the Mingyue Palace was over.
After the fire, the scene began to be counted, except for Hu Xiaotian who survived in Mingyue Palace, all the other palace people, including Wen Ya, were missing, because the fire was too fierce, only part of the bones remained, and after piecing it together, it could be concluded that it was seven, compared to the number of missing people, Wen Ya and the three palace maids and three eunuchs who had just been sent to Mingyue Palace, and the preliminary conclusion was that Wen Ya and the six palace maids and eunuchs all died in the fire.
Hu Xiaotian never believed that Wen Ya would die, although his memory of last night was a little confused, but he still remembered some things intermittently, and piecing together those things, he could probably deduce what happened, one thing he was sure of was that he would never walk back to his room, someone must have sent him back, and then set fire to Mingyue Palace.
What he couldn't be sure was what happened between himself and Wen Ya, the pictures in his mind, and the touching voices echoing in his ears were his hallucinations or reality, but this thing secretly checked himself when he urinated, and the lifeblood that had been hidden for a long time should have traces of use, and he still knew his own things.
There is no evidence of death, all the human and physical evidence has been burned, and it is really difficult for others to find out what happened last night, as for Hu Xiaotian, he only said that he was treated coldly after he came back, and he had no chance to see Wencai at all, let alone know why the fire happened.
Fortunately, the guards only questioned him verbally, and did not conduct a medical examination.
Otherwise, you will definitely be able to find a lot of doubts.
Some things happened clearly, such as the scorpion stings on his body, and the clear tooth marks and kiss marks on his chest and shoulders.
In fact, from the time Wen Ya summoned him into the Mingyue Palace, until Wen Ya designed to release the poisonous scorpion and forcibly stuffed seven Red Sun Burning Yin Pills into his mouth, he remembered it clearly.
Things have been torn apart since then.
Hu Xiaotian thought that Wen Ya was not dead, and deep in his heart, he didn't want Wen Ya to die in this fire, for a person who wanted to kill himself should not have such compassion, but Hu Xiaotian always felt that things were not as simple as he remembered.
Some memories in the haze have always haunted him, Wen Ya's shocking martial arts, and those poisonous insects that are surging out, how to explain it The fire in Mingyue Palace naturally attracted many people to come, and important figures such as Murong Zhan, Ji Feihua, Quan De'an, and Wen Chenghuan came to the scene one after another.
Whatever the original purpose of these people, the fire happened beyond their expectations.
Things have escaped their control.
Wen Taishi's buttocks in the position of the national abbot were not hot, and his goddaughter died, the old lady was still sad in front of people, Quan De'an comforted on the side, and even Ji Feihua, the opponent, used to comfort him with hypocrisy, although they all made a sympathetic look on the surface, some people felt the same way, and some people were happy in their hearts.
As the only survivor of the Bright Moon Palace.
Hu Xiaotian naturally couldn't erase the biggest suspicion, and most people suspected that he had something to do with arson.
Inevitably, he was cross-examined.
His subordinates launched a carpet search in the Mingyue Palace, and actually found a letter in the courtyard of the Mingyue Palace, which was written by Wenya's own handwriting, and it was also a unique letter, in which it was written that Wenya had been plagued by disasters since entering the palace.
Because the emperor fell ill in Mingyue Palace, he felt that he was an ominous person, so he felt guilty and bored, so he decided to die and apologize.
The biggest effect of this letter is that Wenya admits that she put the fire.
She was dying.
But when she died, why did she bring the innocent palace maid and eunuch Hu Xiaotian understood that this was to extinguish her mouth and avoid future troubles, as for her in the eyes of others, it seemed that she had escaped a death catastrophe because she lived in an independent hut outside, but Hu Xiaotian knew in her heart that the reason why Wen Ya did not kill herself was related to those real and illusory images in her mind, could it be that Lao Tzu really snapped this talented person in a half-dream No matter how hard Hu Xiaotian tried to recall, he couldn't remember the details of last night, There is a kind of regret that Zhu Bajie eats ginseng fruit, and before he tasted anything, he threw it away for the first time.
If things are really as they imagined, they should not take advantage of anything, not only did they not take advantage, but they suffered a big loss, Lao Tzu is the first time in his life Ji Feihua didn't talk to Hu Xiaotian at the scene, but just glanced at him meaningfully, and now was obviously not the time to ask for details.
Quan De'an didn't say a word to Hu Xiaotian, but he looked at Hu Xiaotian's eyes with a coldness, and Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a little hairy in his heart.
If it weren't for the letter Wen Ya left behind, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River this time, in fact, even if he could clear his suspicion, he wouldn't be able to escape the responsibility of leaving his post without permission.
Thinking of the next accountability, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel apprehensive in his heart.
After Wen Chenghuan finished reading the suicide note left by Wen Ya, the old lady cried even more and beat her chest, and looked at Hu Xiaotian while wiping her tears, her eyes were full of resentment, and the pain of losing her daughter was all counted on Hu Xiaotian's head, Hu Xiaotian didn't dare to look at him, and hurriedly lowered his head, secretly wondering whether Wen Chenghuan should be angry with himself about this matter, and Wen Chenghuan would definitely not give up.
He Du quietly came to Hu Xiaotian's side and coughed lightly. woke up Hu Xiaotian from his ignorant state, Hu Xiaotian arched his hand as if he had just woken up from a dream: "What does Grandpa He command?"
On such an occasion, He Dui, who has always been known for his smiling tiger, also looked extremely serious, and said in a low voice: "Lord Admiral, tell you not to be afraid, and tell the matter as it is." ” Hu Xiaotian sighed secretly in his heart, Ji Feihua was clearly threatening himself not to talk nonsense, let alone betray him. quietly looked at Ji Feihua, but saw Ji Feihua and Quan De'an standing in front of the ruins talking eagerly, I don't know what the two said.
Hu Xiaotian explained what happened last night, of course, he avoided the important and trivial, in fact, he himself was also confused, what happened specifically, the person who knew best must be Wenya, his testimony did not help to figure out the truth of the matter, but added a lot of mysteries.
After asking Murong Zhan, he was allowed to temporarily return to the Siyuan Bureau to wait for news, and on the way back, he noticed that two guards were following him from a distance, obviously he had been monitored, and his mood became more and more heavy.
Back to the Siyuan Bureau, although the former group of subordinates saw him still saluting respectfully, most of them left in a hurry after the salute, no longer following behind as in the past to flatter, and trying their best to flatter, as the so-called warm and cold people, the world is cold, Hu Xiaotian is not the first time to experience, the fire in Mingyue Palace is spreading, according to the practice in the palace, such a major event has happened, the eunuchs involved must be held responsible, everyone understands that Hu Gonggong is in trouble this time, and it is a big trouble.
At this delicate moment, no one would be stupid enough to take the initiative to get too close to Hu Xiaotian, and if he couldn't keep it, he would be involved.
Hu Xiaotian's mentality was superhuman, and he did not show any abnormality, first inspected the various departments of the Siyuan Bureau, and then browsed the recent accounts.
It was close to noon after finishing these things, and Shi Xuedong, who had gone out to buy, came back.
According to the past, Shi Xuedong was willing to return to the palace at least outside until dusk, but now it is different, he has also heard about the fire in Mingyue Palace, and he can't wait to go there to see what is going on as soon as possible, his status in the palace all depends on Hu Xiaotian, if something happens to this sworn brother, his future life in the palace will be difficult.
If Hu Xiaotian is thrown into the dust, his follower will definitely fall with his nose and swollen face.
But the Mingyue Palace has been blocked by the guards of the Great Interior, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter, so with Shi Xuedong's status and status, he naturally has no chance to enter, so he can only forcibly hold a restless heart and perform his duties first.
Even when he went out of the palace to buy, he didn't have the leisurely and comfortable style of the past, although the suppliers were waiting in line for a treat, Shi Xuedong had no intention of entertaining, and hurried back to the palace after finishing his work.
Hearing that Hu Xiaotian had returned, Shi Xuedong felt a little at ease, he came to Hu Xiaotian's room, and said with a happy face: "Brother, seeing that you are safe and sound, I, who is an elder brother, am relieved." ” Hu Xiaotian nodded, didn't say much, the cup of hot tea in his hand had become cold, just now he had been in a daze, thinking about how to deal with the questioning of those people later, only then did he realize that he had been in a daze in the room for a long time.
Shi Xuedong had a good eye, stepped forward and picked up the teapot and said, "The tea is cold, I'll go and refill some hot water for my brother." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "No need, Brother Dong, you sit down first, I'll tell you something." ” Shi Xuedong pursed his lips and sat down opposite Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mingyue Palace caught fire last night, and the Wencai people and the six eunuchs and palace maids all died in the fire, and I was the only one in the entire Mingyue Palace who survived. ” "That's a brother's blessing and a great life, if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future."
Historiography also seems to be weak.

Hu Xiaotian smiled indifferently: "It's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse, although the literati left a suicide note to prove that this fire was caused by her, but I, as the steward and eunuch of Mingyue Palace, can't escape its responsibility." ” Shi Xuedong was concerned: "Is the boss going to punish you?"
