072, after the move

The Nanyang Marquis' Mansion is not calm, and the Yuan Duke's Mansion is not much better. The Yuan Duke's wife thrusts violently when she wakes up early.

"What are my mother worried about? Those are all guards with great martial arts skills. There are only a few people in the village, don't worry."

Yuan Wan was not worried at all. He drank tea and snacks comfortably, but the wife of Duke Yuan felt a little uneasy.

"It's already this time, and there's no movement yet. Even if I come back and report a letter."

Yuan Wan shrugged and continued to bite the snack until the maid hurriedly entered the door. "Mrs. Something happened to me. A village outside the city caught fire last night. Unfortunately, Deputy General Mu was caught. This morning, Deputy General Mu personally reported to the office. Lord Jingzhao Yin has already gone and arrested several living people."

"Ahem!" Yuan Wan was choked suddenly and took a drink for half a cup before swallowing it.

"What, I've got to Jingzhao Yin?" The wife of the Duke of Yuan turned pale and her little face was tense. Yuan Wan heard that the person was arrested and lost her appetite, so she put down the snacks in her hand. "Mother, even if she set a small fire, it's not a big deal. Why did she get to Jingzhao Yin? Why are the people in the Wei family so timid?"

The maid said again, "Miss. The fire in the second half burned the entire village yesterday, and almost burned the people in the village to death. The fire was extinguished this morning, and everyone around saw the fire soaring into the sky."

"Then did Wei Wanning and Wei Shi burn that little bitch to death?" Yuan Wan couldn't wait to ask. If the person was really burned to death, he would be over. As for the few people captured alive, Yuan Wan didn't care at all. The Duke of Yuan and Lord Jingzhao Yin were old friends, so just ask for a little.

The maid shook her head, "Princess Yongyang took two ladies from the Wei family back to the Nanyang Marquis' Mansion. I heard that she was just a little scared and not injured."

Yuan Wan frowned, "It's still like this and I can't burn it to death. The bitch is so lucky. Mother, if you really can't do this, I'll tell my father. At most, we'll be scolded and I'll admit it."

"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. Deputy General Mu is the nephew of Princess Yongyang. He appeared in the village for no reason. Several people were unscathed and reported to Jingzhao Yin. In the minority, this matter was said to be arson and injured. In the majority, someone was taking care of human life at the foot of the world, and then taking the title of bandits or assassins may not be able to do so."

The wife of the Duke of Yuan Dynasty had more knowledge than Yuan Dynasty. This happened so coincidental, and she was caught by someone to have a few survivors. Even if she settled her privately, it would be difficult to deal with it.

"Maybe it's a coincidence. Mother, don't worry. What kind of storms can a weak family cause? So what if you catch a few people, can you still accuse the Duke of Yuan?" Yuan Wan sneered. Even if he gave Jingzhao Yin three courages, he might not dare to do this.

A cold look suddenly flashed in the eyes of Duke Yuan’s wife, "This matter will not affect Duke Yuan’s Mansion, but will only implicate your elder sister. Once the Duke Yuan’s Mansion greets Jingzhao Yin and interferes in this matter, it is not clear that this fire is related to Duke Yuan’s Mansion. How can the Duke Bei’an treat your elder sister well!"

Maybe I was thinking too much, could those people have such deep thoughts? The Duke of Yuan suddenly felt that this was a bit tricky.

If the Yuan Duke's Mansion does not interfere, it will be even more troublesome if it really asks.

Yuan Wan frowned, "Mother means that if they calculate it correctly, we will do it, and if they are sure, we dare not make trouble. We want to do this for our elder brother-in-law. Isn't my mother overestimating them?"

"If this is true, your elder sister will be even more sad in the future..." The Duke of Yuan Dynasty scolded those idiots in his heart, and was caught even if he did something small. It was too worry-free.

The Duke of Yuan Dynasty stood up, "You can't sit still and wait for death. You can only think of other ways. This matter cannot make your elder sister suffer a loss. Those living beings cannot be kept."

...

As soon as Mingsu returned to Beijing, he knew that a fire broke out in the village last night. He didn't care much about it. He went to the Nanyang Marquis' Mansion to see Princess Yongyang. He restrained a lot of his anger and respectful attitude, "I have met Princess."

"No need to be too polite. Ning'er was a little scared. She just took a short rest after taking the fetal pill. You go."

Unexpectedly, Princess Yongyang was generous and did not make things difficult for Mingsu, and even asked the maid to lead Mingsu to see Wei Wanning.

Bypassing the screen, Wei Wanning's face was pale, her hands tightly clutched the quilt, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she was sleeping a little uneasy.

Mingsu had a cold face and saw Wei Wanning, his eyes softened three times, and he was stunned. He was about to salute, but Mingsu waved his hand and asked softly, "How are you doing in the past few days?"

"When I go back to the Marquis, my wife has been suffering from nightmares these days and has been sleeping a little uneasy, but the doctor said..."

Siyun wanted to speak but stopped, saying, "The doctor said that the wife had injured her last miscarriage. If she couldn't save her this time, I'm afraid she would not be pregnant again in the future."

After saying that, Mingsu's face suddenly became heavy, and he retreated aside as if he was frightened.

After a long time, Mingsu spoke, "Take good care of his wife."

"yes."

When he left the Nanyang Marquis Mansion, Mingsu's face was gloomy, and there could be a storm at any time. He stepped on his horse's back. The servant asked, "Marty, are we going back to the house? The old Fengjun sent someone to urge him."

"Send me back and say that I have nothing to do, go to the village!"

When Mingsu saw that the huge farm had become a ruin, and there was white smoke in some places. As soon as he got closer, there was a very pungent charred smell. There were many corpses on the ground, and several servants were searching for some available objects.

This Zhuangzi was personally selected and given to Wei Wanning by Mingsu. They were arranged according to Wei Wanning's preferences. The closer they got, the ugly Mingsu's face became.

"What's going on?" Mingsu arrested the manager and asked.

"Marty, I deserve to die, I didn't protect the village." The manager knelt down and cried bitterly. His clothes were burned, and he was in a very embarrassed voice. Mingsu said in a deep voice, "What happened last night?"

"Last night, the four corners in the southeast, west and northeast began to catch fire. All four doors were blocked and they could not get out. Several wells were sprinkled with palm oil, and the fire became bigger and bigger. The princess took her wife and Miss Wei Qi on the boat and crossed to the center of the lake. Later, dozens of men in black came out from somewhere and attacked the center of the lake. Fortunately, there were several guards in the Wei family following and fought to the death. She was fine. Early in the morning, Deputy General Mu came to check, and even reported Jingzhao Yin and took away a few suspicious people."

Mingsu looked at the lake, and there were indeed many corpses floating, even the corpses of four maids were there. The knife was fatal, which showed that it was very dangerous last night.

Mingsu's back felt cold. If it weren't for the Wei family's guards, he might not have been able to see Wei Wanning safely when he came back today.

"Marty!" Chang'an stepped forward and lowered his voice, "A few suspicious people who were arrested by Mu Heng last night were sent to prison, and they all died."

Mingsu sneered. The man died as soon as he came back. It was obvious that he didn't want him to investigate. Then Chang'an said again, "This is a letter from someone on the road to the marquis."

After taking it, Mingsu immediately said, "You go to the Mu family to pick up a few people. Be sure to interrogate them in person and make him spit. In addition, the red coral plant brought back this time was sent to the Mu family and tell Deputy General Mu that this favor was recorded."

"yes!"

Mu Heng had several suspects in his hand, and he handed them half to Jingzhaoyin, and the remaining few were detained at the Mu family. When Mingsu came back, he handed them to Mingsu immediately. Perhaps he had expected someone to do something behind his back.
