The rose garden was filled with flames.
When the dry rose bushes encountered kerosene, they burned into a large area, and the entire rose garden became a sea of flames.
If not prepared in advance, the people inside would have almost no possibility of escape.
The sound of gongs was heard in Duke Dingguo's mansion, and people everywhere shouted, "The water is leaking!" "The water is leaking!"
The guards and servants rushed to put out the fire, but how could they control the fire?
Mrs. Han was the first to come over in a soft sedan. Before she got off the sedan, she anxiously shouted to a few guards standing on the roadside, "Hurry in and save Ning'er!"
When the sedan came down, she staggered forward a few steps, fell to the ground and cried loudly, "My Ning'er! How can I explain to your dead aunt!"
Aunt Sun walked out from the shadows behind the guards and said coldly, "What is the old lady crying for?"
Mrs. Han's crying stopped suddenly. She turned around in horror and looked at Aunt Sun and Yu Niang who were intact, "Mother Sun, why are you here?"
Aunt Sun sneered, "I didn't die inside. Isn't the old lady very disappointed?"
What the old lady fears most is Aunt Sun, the god of plague, who, with the help of Prince Jin's Palace behind her, is domineering in the Duke's Palace. She, as her master, must treat her with courtesy.
She hurriedly said, "Of course not... It's an unexpected surprise that Mother Sun is doing well."
She asked anxiously and hopelessly, "Where is the county principal, is she okay?"
Aunt Sun's face turned ugly, "Do you think it will be better?"
The old lady felt happy in her heart. She weakly supported the maid and climbed up from the ground. Looking at the fire that burned through half of the sky, she said sadly, "My Ning'er... I regret so much. The weather is dry and things are dry. I should
I’m reminding you to pay attention to the candlelight!”
Aunt Sun said coldly, "The county master is not dead, why are you crying?"
Mrs. Han didn't even come up with a breath and almost lost her breath. What! Not dead?
Han Qingwan beside her looked around and found two men in black lying in the grass on the roadside. They were the two dead soldiers sent by her grandmother. They seemed to be dead.
Her face was gloomy, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails were almost embedded in her flesh.
Chen Youning actually let Chen Youning hide again!
Manager Wen who had been standing aside raised his hand, and the guards retreated. Not far behind them, there was a quilt spread on the ground, and lying on it were Chen Youning and his servant.
Manager Wen said in a deep voice, "The county master is still fine, he just fainted. But if I hadn't arrived in time, I might have died."
The old lady was holding on to the ground weakly. This time she really had no strength.
How could they still be fine!
"What's going on? There are so many guards in the house, how can there be bad guys?"
Aunt Sun sneered and continued her performance, "I don't know about this. In the middle of the night, these two men in black took some potion and came in, rummaging around to find it. If we hadn't ordered the special Jinwang Mansion in the guest room,
Use incense to ward off poison, and you don’t even know why you died!”
Aunt Sun spoke eloquently and without changing her face she told a story about a loyal servant struggling to save his savior——
She cleverly sensed that something was not good, and while the man in black left, she and Yu Niang carried out the unconscious County Lord and Ling'er.
She continued to tell her what the prince had taught her, and at the same time she cursed the prince bitterly for breaking up her and the county lord.
"Your Dingguo Duke's Mansion is clearly a dragon's pond and a tiger's den! Although this old slave is willing to serve the county lord, he is afraid of risking his life. Please send a bodyguard to send this old slave back to the Prince Jin's Mansion!"
Aunt Sun spoke with great indignation and vented all her anger towards the prince on Mrs. Han. She was particularly sincere and sincere.
Mrs. Han used to wish she could leave quickly, but now she really doesn't dare to let her go no matter what!
If the matter reaches Prince Jin's Mansion, how will it end?
She comforted her in every possible way, but Aunt Sun seemed to be frightened out of her wits. After eating the weight, she became determined and had to leave.
The more she behaved like this, the doubts that Mrs. Han originally had in her heart gradually disappeared, and she began to believe in what she said.
Manager Wen covered his bleeding arm and reported, "Beizhi and Duan Yi were responsible for patrolling the area tonight. They first noticed a fire here. When they rushed over, these two men in black were about to attack the county lord. Old lady, Rose Garden Land
The location is remote, and thieves can easily reach through the backyard wall of the house, so the defense in this area needs to be strengthened."
The old lady felt distressed for a while. The two dead soldiers he sent were personally trained by his younger brother, Marquis Yongning. They put a lot of thought into it and their skills were extremely high.
But it is not impossible that they died at the hands of Wen Guanshi and Duan Yi, who were highly skilled in martial arts.
Fortunately, it’s not like I got nothing tonight——
In such a big fire, everything was burned down.
…
Mrs. Han invited a doctor to check their pulse overnight and confirmed that Han Youning and Ling'er had really been drugged. She felt a little more at ease.
When Han Youning woke up, he was already in the wing of Chunhui Hall.
By now it was getting dark.
The two of them slept soundly, but almost no one in the entire Dingguo Palace could sleep.
Mrs. Han looked tired, but she still had to work up her energy to explain to Han Youning, "You showed off your wealth at Qingchun Tower yesterday. I'm afraid you might be targeted by someone who wants to."
Han Youning's face was rosy, as tender as if she could squeeze water out of her mouth. Her eyes were full of tears, "Is the small box under my pillow still there, and are the good clothes in the wardrobe still there?"
Mrs. Han secretly thought, so the thing was hidden under the pillow? No wonder it couldn't be found!
She sighed, "The whole rose garden has been burned down. Don't worry, I will buy you clothes and jewelry. Everything in the house is for your use."
Han Youning was so distressed that she burst into tears, "There are hundreds of thousands of taels of banknotes in it, can the old lady replenish it for me?"
Mrs. Han was secretly shocked that a little girl of hers had brought so much money!
"Dingguo's mansion doesn't have that much money. However, I have some personal money here..."
She gritted her teeth and said to her mother beside her, "Go get the 10,000 taels of silver and give it to the county boss. Just think of it as my supply to the county boss."
Mom was shocked, ten thousand taels!
The old lady was used to pretending to be frugal, but she was very stingy with her dealings. Even if she had a lot of money, she would not give anyone a dime.
The second master was tightly controlled by his second wife and was short of money. He came to ask for money from the old lady, but the old lady always took it out one by one.
She hesitated for a moment, and when she saw that the old lady didn't regret it, she went back to the upper room to get the banknote.
Han Youning got the banknote and picked a lot of faces from the old lady, and he felt much better.
She was eating snacks and drinking tea in the upper room, as leisurely as if she were in her own yard.
She looked at the sun outside and said, "I don't know when the prince and the third prince will come. Is my aunt's dowry list ready?"
The old lady had a gloomy face and didn't bother to explain anything to her. Thinking about the fact that the prince and the others were coming, she had to go through all the trouble of explaining the whereabouts of each dowry list, which gave her a headache.
A maid came in and said, "Old madam, the prince and the third prince are here. They are in the meeting hall of the outer court."
