Chapter 1200: Rumors that suddenly rose

The queen was puzzled in her heart, but she didn't ask directly.

She knew that the Qiao Lishan in front of her was definitely not easy.



That night.

The warehouse where Duke William prepared the supplies caught fire without any warning.

In the middle of the night, Hans knocked on the king's door.

"Your Majesty, it's not good! The warehouse where the Duke William stored the relief supplies suddenly caught fire, and most of the materials that were finally collected burned down!"

The king who had just fallen asleep suddenly got up, quickly opened the quilt, and opened the door of the room.

"What did you say?"

Hans lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, Duke William has sent someone to put out the fire, but most of the supplies have been burned."

"Cough cough cough!"

The king's vitality surged and he coughed violently.

"Isn't there someone on duty in the material warehouse, who is on duty?"

"Your Majesty, the warehouse is indeed staffed 24 hours a day. Suddenly there was a fire. Duke William suspected that it was the work of an insider, so he has checked them one by one."

"Take me to see!"

The king took a coat, closed the door, and strode out of the bedroom.

Inside the room.

The queen, who had closed her eyes, slowly opened her eyes. She glanced at the dark night outside the window, and closed her eyes with satisfaction.

The king quickly left the palace and went to the warehouse where supplies were placed outside the palace.

When he arrived, Duke William had spotted the arsonist.

The amount of materials prepared this time is huge, and the workers transporting the materials are also very large.

This man took the opportunity to mix in with a group of workers during the day to help carry supplies.

Unexpectedly, taking advantage of the sleepiness of the guards on duty, they set fire overnight.

There are so many flammable products in the warehouse, and it will be out of control if it ignites.

After the extinguishment, most of the materials were unusable.

When Duke William saw the king, he immediately knelt down to apologize.

"Your Majesty, it's because I'm unfavorable in doing things, so that people who plot wrongdoing can take advantage of it. Please punish your majesty!"

The king looked at the smoked and black warehouse in front of him, and said angrily: "Where is the arsonist? What is the purpose of setting fire to destroy the people's supplies?"

"Your Majesty, he has been tortured, but no matter how he beats him, he refuses to admit that he did it deliberately. He just said it was an unintentional mistake!"

Tomorrow the supplies will be shipped to Zhoucheng, and something went wrong tonight. The king would never believe that this was an accidental mistake.

"Find out the background of this arsonist, I want to see if it was accidental!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The king looked at the warehouse in front of him with a headache.

Finally, most of the materials raised in other cities were lost.

How can these leftovers help the people of Zhoucheng?



Early the next morning.

The inexplicable fire incident of the materials spread throughout Country Y.

The rumors about Huangfu Liyue spread more and more in this fire incident.

On the long street outside the palace, if anyone gathers together, most likely they are discussing Huangfu Liyue.

"Oh, have you ever heard of it? The king's daughter is a disaster star of a century!"

"Since she came to our country, Zhou Cheng has suffered a lot of disasters, and the supplies that she transported have happened several times in a row. It's really evil!"

"The hexagram masters in the palace said that it is not suitable for the coronation of the princess. The king would not listen. Now it is all right, and disasters have come to Zhou City!"

"Yes, I heard that Zhou Cheng has starved to death since the day she entered the palace, and the situation is getting worse now. It's so evil!"

"Although I'm not superstitious, this matter is too strange. When she didn't come to our king, every city in our country was safe and sound. Wouldn't it really be a disaster star that is rare in a century?"

The people were shocked to discuss this matter, and the rumor became more and more outrageous.

These words, naturally, quickly became known to the ministers and passed to the king's ears.

In the main hall at the moment, a minister was reporting these rumors to the king.

When the king saw someone slandering his daughter, he directly ordered: "If someone else dared to talk to the princess and spread these words indiscriminately, arrest them all!"

Richard nodded and said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

The ministers looked at each other with complicated eyes.

Soon, some ministers raised objections.

"Your Majesty, although the rumors are not credible, the things in Zhoucheng this time are indeed strange. Now the people in Zhoucheng sigh and starve to death on the streets every day. These things really happened after the princess came to the palace... "

The king got up angrily and officially declared the objecting minister.

"You are also saying that my daughter is the reincarnation of a catastrophe?"

These majestic and cold words made the minister tremble all over, and he knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister never dare to say that the princess is not at all!"

The king sneered.

"Don't dare to speak, are the words just now not obvious enough?

It's nothing more than the people spreading superstition rumors, as an example of the people, you are so confused!

I think you have been in this position for a long time.

Now that you are old and can no longer set an example for the people, let's go back to the old age! "

The minister stopped and kowtow quickly begging for mercy.

"Your majesty be merciful, your majesty be merciful!"

The king raised his hand and motioned to Hans to pull him down.

With the example of this minister, other ministers did not even dare to show up, and even did not dare to mention Huangfu Liyue again.

Huangfu Ye Ting hurriedly stepped forward and said with relief: "Father to calm down his anger, it's just some superstitious rumors. The rumors stop at the wise. I believe that most people are still rational."

The king did not answer, but looked at the people in the temple with a serious face.

"The Zhoucheng incident was purely an unforeseen weather disaster. As parent officials, what you should consider now is how to solve Zhoucheng's dilemma, not take the lead in spreading rumors!

If I hear these words that are not good for the princess again, I will be the first person who will not spare this rumors! Did you hear it clearly? "

All the officials knelt down and replied: "Yes, your majesty!"



Huangfu Liyue heard about the things in the hall soon.

In this era, there are people who believe that there is a superstition about who can influence the fate of the entire country. It is really puzzling.

However, this rumor that suddenly spread throughout the country made her feel very strange.

Even if someone believes this kind of unfounded statement, it is impossible to spread it everywhere overnight.

Sibao sat beside her holding the laptop, staring at the computer angrily.

"Mommy, it's too much. Someone even analyzed your birth date on the Internet, saying that you are the person who kills you, which will affect the fortune of the entire country. This is too bullshit!"

Huangfu Liyue touched her son's head and said frankly: "Even my son can understand the truth, but these people who spread the rumors don't understand it, alas..."

"Mummy, the rumors spread so quickly, which is very unfavorable to you. I heard that many people in Zhoucheng have believed such rumors and clamored for grandpa to drive you out of this country."
