When Fang Zheng arrived at the inn, the fire had been extinguished, but it didn't matter whether it was extinguished or not, because all the ones that should be burned were basically burned, leaving only a piece of ruins with blue smoke, and the air was filled with a strong burnt smell.

Fang Zheng hurried forward and saw that the two groups of Turkic people were still fine, without any damage, but were so furious that they were smoked and burned. The two groups of people were holding scimitars in their forehands and confronted each other in the yard in the inn. Several officials from the Ministry of Rites kept rubbing their hands and stamping their feet, and were so anxious that they were at a loss.

Fang Zheng then breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Zheng didn't care about their life or death, just because he was afraid that the Emperor would not be able to spare him if they died.

"Oh, two nobles, this is a hot day, even if you want to cook the fire, you don't need to pay for it. If you burn the flowers and plants, you will have to pay for it." Fang Zheng put the blame on the Turks as soon as he came up.

The Turkic national master Mo Ji even had a big scattered hair, and the leather robe on his body burned several holes. He had a stern face and said, "Mr. Fang, I swear to the true god on the grassland that this matter is definitely not done by me and my subordinates!"

At this time, a dark Turkic man rushed out from the opposite side and roared at Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng was startled: "Who are you?"

The Turks continued to croak...

Fang Zheng said impatiently: "You calm down for a while, and I can't understand no matter how much you say. - Lord Lu, Lu Hongwen! Where did you die?"

Lu Hongwen stumbled out from the side and smiled and said, "Sir Fang, I'm here."

Fang Zheng pointed to the dark Turkic man: "Go and ask, who is this nigger?"

Lu Hongwen said in surprise: "Master Fang, you won't know him so soon? He is the messenger sent by Datata, Mochu Khan."

Fang Zheng widened his eyes in surprise: "Wow! It turns out it's Brother Da! I haven't seen each other for a day, Brother Da is much more handsome. It turns out that meeting is worse than being famous."

Lu Hongwen quickly translated.

Datata looked like a Donald duck blown by a grenade in a cartoon, smoked all over her body, pointed at Moji with a dark face, and said Turkic words loudly, looking very angry.

Lu Hongwen said: "Dattata said that the house must have been burned by Mojilian. He said that Mojilian was like a cunning and vicious snake, hiding in the dark and biting people unexpectedly. Such a despicable person, the true god will definitely punish him..."

Moji was so angry that his beard was trembling, and he quarreled with Datata loudly.

Fang Zheng touched his chin and thought that this matter was strange. It was said that Mojilian was a Turkic national teacher and was extremely wise. He sent someone to set fire to the house as soon as he arrived in the capital. With his IQ, he should not do such stupid things.

Fang Zheng turned around and asked Lu Hongwen: "Are you all the officials of your Ministry of Rites present at that time? Tell me what's going on."

Lu Hongwen smiled bitterly and said, "It's certain that the house was set on fire. We were all sleeping in the room at noon. Suddenly, we heard a roar from the room where the Datata delegation lived. When we ran over and saw that the roof of their house was on fire. Maybe someone sprinkled tung oil and other flammable materials on it. The fire immediately became very big, but the door of Datata was locked outside..."

Fang Zheng looked at Datata in shock, thinking that this kid is lucky enough. The person who set fire clearly wanted to burn him to death, but he couldn't even run away. It seems that Datata's character is really a problem. Such a tragic encounter, no wonder this guy is so angry that he jumps straight away now.

Pointing to Mojilian, who was also smoked black and brown, like an eight-year-old steak, Fang Zheng asked, "Dattata is burned, what's wrong with them? The house they live in is burning?"

Lu Hongwen wiped his sweat and said, "That's right, the house in Datata just caught fire, and we were all smashing the locks to save people, but we heard a roar from the Turkic National Master. We ran over and saw that the house where the national master and his family lived was also on fire, and the fire was extremely fast, and it burned almost at a glance..."

Fang Zheng said in surprise again: "Wait a minute! Before the lock of the Datata door was opened, you threw him down and ran to the Turkic National Master?"

Lu Hongwen smiled awkwardly: "The situation was so messy at that time. We only had a few accompanying officials, so we couldn't care about this one and the other. Isn't there any way..."

Fang Zheng looked at Datata with sympathy. This guy was so pitiful. Who told him to run wildly outside the city? The officials of the Ministry of Rites threw him into the room and ran to rescue the Turkic national sect. It was probably because Datata was not favored by them. If Fang Zheng was present, he would probably do this...

"Later, when the situation was not good, the officials quickly called in all the soldiers guarding outside, and rescued the Turkic mission, but the house was burned completely."

Fang Zheng nodded. He understood that this matter was definitely not done by the Turks. The Turks were not that stupid. Most of them were done by the Huachao people. They wanted to blame themselves. If the Turkic envoy was burned to death, who should bear the greatest responsibility? It was not his eldest son.

What’s strange is why the person who set fire doesn’t set fire at night while everyone is asleep and has to choose the daytime?

After thinking about it, Fang Zheng could not be so stupid as to run to the Turks that it was the fire set by the Chinese people. This statement would be extremely unfavorable to the negotiations in a few days. The only way today is to muddle the water and stool the shit basin on the Turks.

Fang Zheng walked to the national master and Datata, coughed twice, and said earnestly: "Two envoys, just say if you have any opinions, don't you have to make a house burn, right? The crime of arson is a serious crime in our court. Your legal awareness is too weak. I don't know how to explain to the court..."

Mojilian said angrily: "Mr. Fang, I speak and do things upright. I swear to the true god on the grassland that this is not what I do!"

Fang Zheng turned his head in confusion and said to Datata: "Is it you who did this? Then you shouted to catch the thief?"

Lu Hongwen translated Fang Zheng's words. Datata raised his head and roared like a lion who was angry. His face was half black and half red with anger. He shouted at Fang Zheng a few words without hesitation.

Lu Hongwen translated: "He said that the true god will punish the lying villain. He is innocent. If Lord Fang, you don't believe him, he is willing to use his own blood to wash away the shame of being wronged."

Fang Zheng thought to himself, isn’t the lying villain me? But your true god is in charge of the grassland. We are under the jurisdiction of the Jade Emperor. Your true god cannot enforce the law across regions, and this matter will not be considered by me in the end.

Fang Zheng spread his hands and said innocently: "You two said that they didn't do it by themselves. It's impossible for us Huachao people to do it, right? To be honest, this is in my Huachao territory. If I really want to kill you, I can send an army to destroy you in a dignified manner. Do you know that this house is very expensive? The wood, carvings and tiles it uses are all good materials. The fire is burned clean now, and there is no need to find a murderer. What should you do about this?"

Mojilian looked at Fang Zheng intentionally or unintentionally and smiled: "Mr. Fang, since you can't find the criminal now, I will give up on this matter. Fortunately, no one was injured. It's better to leave this matter to your yamen to investigate."

Fang Zheng was waiting for this sentence. He smiled and said, "It's so good." As he said that, he turned his head and asked Datata: "What do you say?"

After hearing Lu Hongwen's translation, Datata snorted heavily at Moji, turned his head aside, and said nothing, which was to be accustomed to this matter.

Fang Zheng smiled and said, "That's right. Shake your hands. We are all good friends. We just burn whatever we like. Because you are guests from afar, we will not compensate you for the house when we see you again. We should regard it as a gift from me to give you. Haha, it's a joy and everyone is happy. How great."

As the implication was that Fang Zheng still held the burning of the house tightly on the Turkic mission.

When the two messengers heard this, their faces changed. After thinking about it, they finally held back and said nothing.

Mojilian smiled and said, "Mr. Fang, I am really sorry for you. Thank you. I want to ask, when will we start to discuss the alliance between you and me? There are many state affairs on the grassland. I am eager to finish the work and go back quickly. Please ask Lord. Fang to discuss it early."

Fang Zheng hummed twice and said, "The envoy came just yesterday. Why should we be anxious about the negotiation? There is a saying in our Huachao that is, "I can't eat hot tofu if I'm anxious." Have you ever eaten tofu? It's soft and smooth... By the way, you haven't seen the entertainment life of our Huachao yet? I'll take you to the Qinhuai River to go around in the evening. The moon is very round and the tofu is delicious..."

Seeing this slick boy talking nonsense, Mojilian couldn't help but feel annoyed in his eyes.

Datata said another Turkic remark at this time, and Lu Hongwen translated: "He said that their Mochuo Khan is the greatest and most noble Khan on the grassland. Only by forming an alliance with them can the Huachao people get real benefits."

Fang Zheng shook his hand and smiled, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Haha, the two nobles, I should settle down a place for you. I can't live here. The two nobles will also wash them when you go back. What you are now will scare the children..."

After saying that, Fang Zheng ordered several officials from the Ministry of Rites to start re-arrange their residences. Fang Zheng specifically ordered not to arrange them together, and it would be better to be far apart, so as to avoid them being idle and fighting in groups.

After giving the order, Fang Zheng said goodbye to the two Turkic envoys. Before leaving, Mojilian pulled him aside and said with a smile: "Master Fang, I want to ask, have you offended someone in your court?"

Fang Zheng was stunned: "What does it mean?"

Mojilian glanced at Datata and smiled and said, "The fire is a bit strange today. I can be sure that it was not what we Turks do. Haha, Lord Fang, this is someone who wants to bring disaster to you."

Fang Zheng was shocked. This old man was too smart. He could see so many inside stories from some clues. This old man was not easy to deal with.

After Mojilian said this, he patted Fang Zheng on the shoulder with a smile, and said goodbye.
