Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1186

"Make • the • fire • bigger?" Qian Yin was surprised.

"Yes," replied Yun Shang. Her eyes were full of coldness, "Since the fire is on, the bigger the fire is, the better."

After saying that, Yun Shang didn't immediately explain further. She only ordered the servants, "Go on. We can talk on the way. It's not good to delay the imperial banquet."

The chariot moved on again.

Yun Shang then asked, "Since someone deliberately set the fire and the place was chosen between every two Temples of Heaven, it must have been planned for a long time. The fire must have burned some empty courtyards, right?"

"Yes, majesty," Qian Yin nodded and said, "I have ordered my spies to investigate it. They are indeedempty courtyards withoutanyone around."

"As I expected, things will be much easier," Yun Shang concluded.

The Phoenix chariot stopped in front of the back hall of the Taiji Palace. Yun Shang got off the chariot and walked quickly into the hall with Chengye.

Sitting behind the imperial table, Luo Qingyan frowned and listened to the secret guards' report. Seeing Yun Shang come in, Luo Qingyan raised his hand and signaled the secret guards to stop.

"Have you received the news, Shang'er?"

Yun Shang nodded, "I've heard from Qian Yin on the way here."

Luo Qingyan kept silent for a while and asked, "What do you think about it, Shang'er?"

Both of them looked at each other, and both of them captured a similar hostility in each other's eyes. The corners of their mouths curled into a smile.

"Let the fire burn more fiercely,"

They spoke almost at the same time.

Hearing this, the others in the hall looked at each other in dismay.

Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang smiled more brightly.

"Your Majesty and I have the same idea," Yun Shang said smilingly.

Luo Qingyan nodded, "They are more merciful this time after all. They are burn some deserted houses. If there are casualties in these fires, it will be difficult to deal with. "

"Maybe it's because they are afraid that things will be exposed. If there are casualties, it would be difficult to recover. In this situation, even if the people behind the conspiracy are caught, there is still room for their sophistry," Yun Shang replied.

Luo Qingyan nodded, turned around and ordered the secret guards, "Send someone to investigate all the deserted houses in the city. Set a fire to them."

"Burn one if you find out one deserted house. Hurry up. But don't burn after you find out everything," Yun Shang added. Then she turned to Qian Yin, "There are many spies disguised as beggars in the streets. They should know these deserted houses best. Ask them to help the secret guards do this."

Luo Qingyan smiled and turned to Liu Wenan, "Issue an announcement and post it in public. Tell them that I'm overjoyed to be the Emperor and burn all the deserted houses in the city on the day of the enthronement ceremony. Later, I will build something beneficial to the people in these places, such as the stages, the private schools, the martial arts performing fields, and places for entertainment..." Yun Shangcontinued, "Ask the spies posing as storytellers, beggars and buskers to spread this news as soon as possible, at least faster and wider than the previous rumors."

When the people in the hall heard what Luo Qingyan and Yun Shanghad arranged in unison, their eyes lit up with joy.

"Your Majesties, you are wise!"

"In this way, we can reverse the situation and turn what is not good for us into a favorable situation that everyone will praise. Your majesties are really farsighted."
