   Chapter 951 Chapter 150 Fire

   When Mrs. Yuan took the child out of the prefectural yamen, she still felt like she was in a dream.

   But the violent cries of the daughter in her arms reminded her that she was not dreaming, everything happened.

She looked from the crowd running in a hurry and crying in fear. The prefect's yamen was submerged in a raging fire. The huge flame was like a fire dragon, and it was about to engulf everything. The soldiers of the government went to the wells on the street to collect water one by one, and passed the buckets one by one.

   The cry of the child in her arms was not abrupt at all.

Madam Yuan was in a trance, but someone pulled her hand sharply. She lowered her head subconsciously, and saw an old woman holding her hand tightly for a while. Seeing her look over, the old woman lowered her voice. Warning: "Don't make a sound, I was sent by the Yuan family to rescue you."

The fire in the yamen was getting bigger and bigger, and the huge thick smoke slowly wafted out, covering almost the whole street. Madam Yuan was choked to tears, and hurriedly hugged the child in her arms and followed the old woman around. Westbound left this road.

She didn't know how long she had gone, but Mrs. Yuan was already walking a little hard. The old woman suddenly stopped and looked at her: "Here it is." Then she knocked gently on the door in front of her, and she knocked on the door very regularly. , The first three after the second, the front is light and the back is heavy, like some kind of signal.

   After a while, the door squeaked open a crack, and a man stuck his head out from inside, glanced at them, and after seeing the old woman, he opened the door and let them in.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, Mrs. Yuan realized that something was wrong—this is by no means an ordinary place. It looked like an ordinary small courtyard from the outside, but it was actually opened up. As soon as you entered the door, you would find that it was very wide and wide. , I am afraid that the whole street of the yard has been bought.

   She jumped in her heart, and looked at the old woman with some anxiety: "Grandma, what is this place?"

  The old woman walked in front of her without squinting: "Madam, don't ask any more questions, you will know when you arrive."

Mrs. Yuan hugged the child tighter, and when she was led away for about a cup of tea, the old woman stopped in front of a courtyard, and then solemnly gave a whistle, and as the whistle sounded, The door opened, and the old woman motioned for Mrs. Yuan to follow, and led her into the yard and up the steps. After waiting in the corridor for a while, a person who looked like a girl came out and led them in.

   If you don’t know, you might even think that this is the mansion of the prince and the prince.

  There is such a place in Zhaotong!

Mrs. Yuan felt like a huge stone was falling in her heart, which made her breathless. The child in her arms stopped crying at this time. She was stunned for a moment, and then the old woman pushed her away without a trace. Well, she saw the man in the room at once, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Brother-in-law!"

   It turned out to be Wei Desheng.

  Wei Desheng has a face with Chinese characters, and the whole person looks like a face that cannot be offended. Hearing Mrs. Yuan shouting, he hummed and asked in a deep voice, "Where are Zijian and Kang'er?"

Mrs. Yuan immediately panicked: "Brother-in-law, I don't know what's going on, we were all taken to be beheaded, and later, after what the lord told them, they stopped killing us and took us with them. Let's go to the adults, they will punish us"

  Wei Desheng was a little impatient.

  This sister-in-law has always been obedient, almost like an invisible person at home, wishing that his brother-in-law and his wife would like him. Now it seems that it is indeed useless, and he can't say a word clearly.

   He interrupted Mrs. Yuan's chatter with a cough: "I'm asking, why are you and Niuniu the only ones who escaped, but Zijian and Kangerren?"

  Wei Desheng paid great attention to his wife Yuan Shi, and even knew that his wife's favorite brother was his brother-in-law. Naturally, he couldn't let his brother-in-law have an accident.

Mrs. Yuan seemed to be frightened, she hugged the child in panic and shook her head: "I don't know, they locked us in the woodshed, and later took us to a yard to let us see the master, and let us persuade us to persuade us. Master, let the master tell the truth, if the master refuses to listen to the list, they will kill Kanger and Niuniu."

   Having said this, Mrs. Yuan burst into tears: "Niuniu cried so hard, I was also afraid, so I started crying, and they took me and Niuniu to the firewood room again"

  Although what Mrs. Yuan said was still confused, a shrewd person like Wei Desheng quickly guessed something from Mrs. Yuan's words.

The reason why    suddenly stopped killing Mrs. Yuan and the others was because Mrs. Yuan was going to threaten Mr. Yuan to identify the people behind.

   He snorted.

   The fire was originally set to save my brother-in-law.

   But they reacted too quickly, and now being able to rescue Mrs. Yuan and her daughter is not satisfactory, it is better than nothing.

  Wei Desheng rubbed his eyes: "Do you know where your master is locked up?"

   He said, frowning: "Think about it, the prefect's yamen is so big, think about it carefully, is there anything special in the place where he is locked?"

   Mrs. Yuan tried her best to recall: "It seems. It seems to be the yard in the northeast corner of the backyard of the prefectural government. There is a plaque on the yard. What is it called. Lotus Garden."

Wei Desheng snorted, and waved his hand to let Mrs. Yuan go down: "Okay, you've been scared for so long, and the child is still young, so you can take the child down to rest first, don't think about anything, don't ask any more questions. , just have a good rest, the business here is none of your business."

   Mrs. Yuan immediately showed a panicked look, and she was in a hurry.

   After she went out, Wei Desheng asked the silent old woman: "It's hard to break in? Otherwise, you've stayed for so long, and with your ability, you wouldn't bring back just a useless person."

The old woman nodded affirmatively: "Difficult, there are many experts around the grandson, and he is also a master. The prefect's yamen is like an iron barrel, and there are guards a few steps away. I found that they have been guarding the firewood room. It also gained something. After the arson, I used secret techniques to fascinate those guards. Who knew that it was only the lady inside, but at that time, others had already been alerted, so I could only take advantage of the chaos to escape with the lady and the young lady. "

  Wei Desheng hummed and tapped his finger on the table: "She said just now, Lotus Garden, do you know where it is?"

  The old woman nodded affirmatively: "I know, it was the yard of the prefect before."
