Chapter 3 Escape from the Wolf's Den 1

"There must be an explanation for this fire!" Seeing that Yan Chengzhi ignored him, Yan Chengqing yelled again. Yan Chengzhi turned around fiercely, raised his hand and pointed it at Yan Chengqing and said angrily: "Who sneaked in the night before yesterday?

Rongxuantang’s? Thief shouts “Catch the thief…”

"Fart! You didn't sneak in, how did you see me? You locked the door, the key is in your hand!" Yan Chengqing blushed, jumped to his feet and shouted angrily, Yan Chengzhi became angry and was about to continue to curse

, I saw a woman running towards the front yard. Before she could stand still, she gasped and reported: "Master Hou, the official Guo of the government office is here and wants to ask about the water leakage at night. Prince Qingjiang

Madam came to offer condolences and has already entered the mourning hall." Yan Chengzhi's face changed slightly, he stared at Yan Chengqing sinisterly, and said with suppressed anger: "That girl... the niece of the Li family turned into ashes in Ruiyun Pavilion last night.

It's an urgent matter! Why did the Qingjiang Marquis Mansion come to express condolences so early? Didn't you come here before? Stop crying! Why don't you hurry up and go to the mourning hall!"

Yan Chengzhi's last words were yelled at Mrs. Sun. Mrs. Sun shivered and hurriedly supported her mother-in-law to cry in the mourning hall. The second wife, Mrs. Zheng, waved her handkerchief and followed Mrs. Sun leisurely.

"Don't worry, this is a big deal." Yan Chengqing cleared his throat, patted the front of his clothes with his sleeves, and unnaturally gave way to Yan Chengzhi. Yan Chengzhi said "Hmm" and strode forward with his hands behind his back. Yan Chengqing also held his hands behind his back.

Follow closely behind.

The mother-in-law who came to report dropped her hands and lowered her head. She glanced up from the corner of her eyes and glanced at the backs of Yan Chengzhi and the two of them with disdain. When the two of them were gone, she let out a soft "poof" and trotted back towards the mourning hall to watch the fun.

Went.

Curtains were used to separate a small hall for guests on both sides of the mourning hall. There were chairs against the wall. Mrs. Xu, the prince of Qingjiang, was dressed in plain clothes. She was sitting on the chair. She was lovingly pulling Li Tian who was sitting next to her and saying softly.

Talk.

Mrs. Xu is thirty-four or five years old, gentle and elegant. She is a girl from the Xu family of Lening. The Xu family of Lening and Mrs. Lin's natal family are both family friends and relatives by marriage.

When he went to the Jianghou Mansion in the Qing Dynasty, he liked Mrs. Xu very much and often invited her and his only daughter Yu Yaofang to play and chat with her. Li Tian was a frequent visitor to the Prince's Mansion in Nanning County, so he met Yu Yaofang and became close friends.

Yu Yaofang is fourteen years old this year. She has willow eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. She has a slender figure. She is dressed in a moon-white silk dress. She is as pretty as a bamboo pole. She is so anxious that she cannot sit still. She stands in the middle of the side hall, frowning and stretching her arms eagerly.

Long Neck looked towards the door, and Mrs. Xu turned to her gently and called her: "Come back and sit down, it's still early."

"If Ake dares to be too late this time, forgive me...I will ignore her again!" Yu Yaofang did not answer her mother's words, turned around and came back in two steps, stamping her feet towards Li Tian and said in a hurry. Ake's name is Lin Ke, and he is from Jiangjun

The princess was nearly forty years old and gave birth to a daughter. She was pretty, lively and cute. She was the apple of the Nanning County Prince's palace. She had been very pampered since she was a child, but she was the most submissive to Li Tian and obeyed Li Tian's words.

The three of them have been best friends since childhood.

"Sister, don't worry," Li Tian stood up, stretched out his hand to pull Yu Yaofang, moved her to Mrs. Xu's right, pushed her to sit down, and comforted her calmly: "She needs to get ready, it's still early.

,Sister, let’s have some tea.”

Mrs. Xu looked at Li Tian with admiration, who looked haggard but calm and calm like an orchid in a deep valley, and praised: "Sister Tian is worthy of being taught by Mrs. Lin. This kind of demeanor makes people fall in love with her. Yaoyao wants to have you."

Just half of it..." Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a rush of anxious footsteps at the door, interspersed with bursts of sobs.

"The aunts are here." Li Tian said in a low voice, with a hint of fear on his face. Mrs. Xu subconsciously leaned over to her. Yu Yaofang suddenly jumped up and took Li Tian's hand to protect her in front of her.

Mrs. Sun burst into tears before entering the house. She was the host of the funeral, and according to the rules, she was unable to speak until she cried. The second wife, Mrs. Zheng, was responsible for the funeral. While sobbing, she bent her knees and thanked Mrs. Xu: "The Yan family has suffered."

This terrible misfortune has caused..." He had just finished half of his reply when he looked up and saw Li Tian standing next to Mrs. Xu. The rest of his words suddenly disappeared and he stared straight at Li Tian, ​​as if he had been immobilized.

Law.

Mrs. Sun also forgot to cry. She stared at Li Tian with her eyes widening. She suddenly raised her hands to hold her head and screamed: "Ghost! There is a ghost! It's not me!" She screamed with fear in her throat.

There was a "clucking" sound and he took several steps back.

Mrs. Xu looked at the two people in disbelief. After a while, her neck was stiff, and she turned to look at Li Tian, ​​who was shaking and holding Yu Yaofang tightly. Yaoyao told her that Uncle Yan's uncle wanted to kill Li Tian to make money. She still felt that

Li Tian thought too much, how could this be something human beings do? But he was helpless with Yaoyao, so he had to bring Yaoyao over early in the morning, and it turned out that... it was actually true!

Mrs. Xu suddenly stood up, hugged Li Tian in her arms and cried: "My son! I still... this is... so cruel!"

"Madam," Li Tian lay in Mrs. Xu's arms. Thinking of his grandmother, he felt sad and burst into tears. Mrs. Zheng came to her senses first, then collapsed to the ground. She clapped her hands on the ground and howled loudly. Mrs. Sun was really sad this time.

She was so sad that she pushed the old woman beside her while crying and said: "Go and tell the master, Mrs. Li is not dead, she is not dead, she is not dead!"

In the reception hall of the outer courtyard, Yan Chengzhi squeezed out tears from the corners of his eyes. He was grieving with Guo Tuiguan, who was in charge of fire prevention and theft detection at the capital's government office: "... How can I explain this to Duke Yong's government? Poor my niece.

Son……"

"Master, Master!" The old woman rushed in and shouted: "My cousin, Lady Li, is not dead! She is still alive. Lady Li is not dead!"

"Impossible!" Second Master Yan Chengqing suddenly jumped up and screamed. Yan Chengzhi's face instantly turned pale and he stared at Guo Tuiguan. His fingers couldn't stop shaking. Guo Tuiguan's eyes shrank. He was in charge of the security department of the capital.

In the year, I had seen too many such evil things. I felt like I had a mirror in my mind. I stood up and said with my hands in my hands: "It's not that I'm unreasonable about this incident. It's actually because of the strict laws of the imperial court. Fortunately, this fire in your house has not affected you."

For other families, it's just a reprimand and a few more years of salary punishment. Such a big fire..." Guo Tuiguan drawled his voice, laughed dryly a few times, and continued with something in his words: "I can't hide it from others! I'm going to invite the Marquis these two days.

I'll go to the government office when I have time, so I won't disturb you anymore. I'll say goodbye!"

Guo Tuiguan turned around and left. Yan Chengzhi's face was turning red and green. He hurriedly followed him, took out a few banknotes from his arms, forced them into Guo Guan's hand with a forced smile, and Guo Tuiguan pushed them away and said:

"Master Marquis, what do you mean by this? You must not do it, you must not do it!" Yan Chengzhi could not push Guo Tuiguan, who was a military general, but he was pushed back several steps by Guo Tuiguan. Before he could catch up, he

Guo Tuiguan had already strode out the door.

Guo Tuiguan got on his horse, and after walking a few steps, he saw the Nanning County Prince's Mansion's car turning into the alley. Guo Tuiguan hurriedly moved his horse to the side, and saw that the car almost didn't stop, and drove straight into the second gate of the Hou's Mansion.

Guo Tuiguan stroked his shaved blue chin and thought for a while, then waved to a confidant and whispered: "I saw that there is no car in Nanning County Prince's Palace, let's go and see the excitement." The policeman nodded knowingly, Guo Tuiguan

Guan reined in his horse and turned around, looking at the still majestic Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, and sighed secretly. Once Mrs. Lin died, the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion was defeated.

"Ake!" Yu Yaofang saw Lin Ke coming in and hurriedly called out to greet her. Lin Ke heard Yu Yaofang's call and hurriedly threw away the hand of his mother, Princess Jiang Jun, and ran over with her skirt in hand. Princess Jiang Jun was filled with love and affection.

Helpless, looking at her daughter, she shook her head and went straight to burn incense in front of Mrs. Lin's soul. She took a half step back, knelt down and kowtowed three times respectfully. Mrs. Lin was the direct aunt of the Prince of Nanning County. As soon as she left,

Not one of the older generation of the Lin family is left.

Mrs. Xu watched her salute and then stepped forward to speak. Mrs. Sun shrank her neck timidly and stepped back instead of moving forward. Mrs. Zheng also shrank beside her and did not dare to say a word. Except for Mrs. Lin, they were the last

It was this noble princess who was afraid of them. Princess Jiang had never looked at them seriously.

Princess Jiang was about fifty years old, slightly plump, and graceful. She accepted Mrs. Xu's courtesy, pulled her to sit on the chair next to her, and asked with concern: "Isn't it that you haven't been feeling well these days? Why are you here so early?

"

"Yao Yao is very anxious." Mrs. Xu glanced at Li Tian and the three people who were huddled together and whispered, sighed, turned back to Princess Jiang and said in a low voice: "This child is pitiful. I don't think too much about it.

It's so vicious. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it." Princess Jiang's face remained as usual, and she just said "hmm". These two losers from the Yan family wanted to harm Sister Tian.

Things didn't happen in a day or two. From the day Mrs. Lin moved her daughter's dowry and her granddaughter back to the Yan Mansion, these two losers have been trying to harm Sister Tian so that they can get the countless money. But with them,

I can only have sweet dreams.

Princess Jiang glanced contemptuously at brother Yan Chengzhi who shrank in. Sister Tian was followed by Yue Niang, who could hurt her? Princess Jiang's eyes moved to Mrs. Lin's coffin, and she stared at it for a moment in a very complicated manner.

This aunt was like a mountain pressing in front of her, and she could only look up to her until her death. How did she hire such a worldly master as Yue Niang? Or was she a close bodyguard for a little girl...

"...This child is also crying silly. How did he survive the past few days? He is really lucky." Mrs. Xu continued to sigh with emotion. Princess Jiang Jun could not help but reveal a faint smile, and gently

Patting Mrs. Xu's hand, Mrs. Xu's pure heart is what she likes best, but she is also too sincere. Until four days ago, this house was held in the hands of Sister Tian and her grandmother.

How many people can be subdued by just those two pairs of trash in a few days?

"Don't worry, this mansion is full of old people in the hands of the old lady." Princess Jiangjun couldn't help but make a point. Without waiting for Madam Xu to reply, she raised her hand to greet Li Tian and said: "Sister Tian, ​​come here and let your aunt take a look.
