Chapter 565 - Explanation

A group of people stood within the golden palace, all of them important figures of the imperial court.

Last night's great fire, other than the people who were summoned in the middle of the night, the Tianhui Emperor had ordered for the imperial court to give up today. Those officials with average statuses in the imperial court had arrived early, and returned home, only sending people to monitor the situation in the imperial palace.

In the middle of the night, Yu Lianghui had already investigated the situation of the fire and reported it to the Tianhui Emperor. A total of twelve people, including Master and palace maidservant, had all lost their lives, and not a single one of them was left alive, the reason for the fire was the same as what he saw: Wen Meng's residence had overturned the candlestick, and had burnt the curtains in the house, causing the fire to spread.
