Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 245: Resentment

Tang Ning covered his chest with a look of pain on his face.

Tang Yaoyao looked him up and down, and suddenly said: "Why is your expression so fake?"

Tang Ning was stunned and asked: "Fake?"

Tang Yaoyao nodded and confirmed: "Fake."

"Don't pay attention to these details." Tang Ning lay back on the bed and said: "Go out first."

"Why?"

"I'm not wearing pants."

"Shameless!"

...

Tangrenzhai is still closed today. There is no need to explain this time. The people can know the reason just by standing on the street and taking a look.

The two doors of Tangrenzhai have been burned down, leaving only the wreckage. Although the plaque is intact, it is smoked black and has been removed.

Neighbors are still talking about the fire last night, and everyone is still scared.

There are shops on both sides of Tangrenzhai. On the left is a cloth shop and on the right is a grain store. If the Tangrenzhai clerk had not discovered it early last night, I'm afraid these two shops would also suffer from the disaster.

This place is in a busy city with densely packed houses. Once the fire spreads, the consequences will be disastrous.

Someone said indignantly: "What's wrong with the guys at Tangrenzhai? Don't they know where this place is? Don't they know to be careful!"

"What's the use of being careful?" Another person shook his head and said: "No matter how careful you are, you can't do anything if you meet someone with ulterior motives."

"You said someone deliberately set the fire?"

"I didn't say that. I just heard that when Tangrenzhai was smashed two days ago, that person said that if they didn't obey, the next step would not be as simple as smashing the store, but burning the entire shop. I wonder if it has anything to do with the arson last night?"

"It actually happened!"

"So, the arsonist was the Tang family?"

"I didn't say anything and left..."

...

The people gathered around Tangrenzhai to discuss, and the neighbors were panicked. Customers who came to buy books came in high spirits and left in disappointment. Looking at the dilapidated store, they didn't know when it would reopen for business.

This damn Tang family, can people still read books properly!

Behind the crowd, a white-haired old man took out a small notebook from his sleeve, and while recording, he said angrily: "Regardless of the consequences, setting fire in the downtown area, under the feet of the emperor, it is simply lawless, lawless!"

When Tang Ning and Tang Yaoyao walked into Tang Renzhai, Manager Xu was sitting inside sighing.

Tang Ning walked over and asked: "How much damage?"

"Young Master and Miss are here." Manager Xu stood up and bowed, saying: "The damage is not big. Fortunately, the guys found it early and put out the fire quickly. Only the door was burned. But the arsonist is too bad. This is really going to burn down our store. A group of sons have no sons..."

"Hey..." Tang Ning waved his hand and said: "Although they are the ones who set the fire, we should also be more elegant. Don't say dirty words or curse..."

Manager Xu could only nod helplessly.

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Have you reported it to the police?"

Manager Xu nodded and said, "The messenger from the Jingzhao government came to check this morning and said that they would find the arsonist as soon as possible."

"As soon as possible!" Liu Jun, who came after hearing the news, was furious: "If it wasn't done by Tang Ersha, I would write my name Liu backwards. The Tang family really thinks that the capital is their world. This time I will make the Tang family lose a layer of skin!"

Tang Ning walked over and comforted him, "Brother Liu, don't be so angry first, maybe the murderer is someone else..."

"Impossible!" Liu Jun slapped his hand on the table and said, "This is the Tang family warning us. Brother Tang, don't worry about this matter. This matter is no longer something you can interfere with."

He turned around and said, "Old Huang, Old Mu, do you really want to watch the Tang family poop and pee on our heads? "

Mu Yu said with a gloomy face: "I'll go back and tell my father first."

Huang Yulong also nodded and said: "I'll go back first."

After the three of them left, Xiao Jue came in from outside and shook his head and said: "They can only be regarded as a small fight, icing on the cake, don't forget to tell His Royal Highness Prince Kang..., he should have known it now."

Tang Ning looked at the embarrassment at the gate of Tangrenzhai, sighed, and said with some heartache: "This is a new shop that has just been renovated. I don't know how much silver it will cost to renovate it again..."

Xiao Jue looked around and said: "I think there should be at least 100,000 taels, right?"

Kangwang Mansion.

Kangwang, who had just got up and was washing up, sprayed out a mouthful of mouthwash after hearing what the housekeeper said.

"What did you say? Tangrenzhai was burned down yesterday? Who did it?"

The housekeeper immediately said, "Your Highness, the arsonist has not been found yet, and the Jingzhao government office is already investigating with all its strength."

Kang Wang wiped his mouth and said happily, "Well burned, well burned!"

"Send someone... No, go and comfort Lord Tang in person, and tell him that I will definitely help him get justice!" Kang Wang straightened his clothes and said, "Get ready, I'm going to visit the Chief Censor."

Tangrenzhai was set on fire, and it took less than a morning for the news to spread throughout the capital.

Even if the Jingzhao government office was burned down, the news would not spread so quickly.

However, the name Tangrenzhai attracts the attention of thousands of people in the capital every day. For two days in a row, they cannot buy a new volume of "The Legend of White Snake". If those maids and servants in the major mansions don't have a justifiable reason. , there is no way to interact with his master.

In a deep house somewhere in the capital, a gorgeously dressed young lady looked at her maid and asked, "What, you didn't buy it again?"

The maid lowered her head and said, "Miss, I got up early this morning, but when I went to Tangrenzhai, I found that Tangrenzhai had been burned down, and they had no books to sell."

The daughter-in-law frowned and said: "The day before yesterday, you said it was smashed, and today you said it was burned. You are not lying to me, are you?"

"I don't dare!" The maid immediately said: "They were really burned. You can find out if you just ask around. I heard that Tang Renzhai offended someone, and that person refused to let them go. I don't know when they will be able to do it." Sell ​​books again..."

"Forget it." The young lady waved her hand and walked into a hall. The middle-aged man sitting at the table looked at her and said: "My daughter's family, don't always stay in the room and read those words. "Ben, learn more about female celebrities. If you are not good at these things, you will be laughed at by others when you get married in two years."

The young lady sat down at the table and said, "Dad, you are talking about me again. I didn't watch it today."

The middle-aged man looked at her and asked casually: "Why, that movie about White Snake that you have been watching these days is finished?"

"It's not finished." The young lady said angrily: "It was almost finished, but the bookstore offended someone. The day before yesterday, the store was smashed. Even the shop was burned down last night. I don't know when it will be ready. Finished."

"Is this happening?" The middle-aged man, who is the censor, looked at her and said, "Tell me in detail, what is going on?"

At the same time, in other high-rise residences in the capital.

A woman punished a servant who failed to do things well, gritted her teeth and said: "What the hell is this Tang family doing? First they banned "The West Chamber" and "Peony", and now they don't even let people watch "White Snake". It's really too much." I hate it!”

After hearing the maid's reasons, a woman shook her head and said, "I've offended the Tang family. I'm afraid this little bookstore will have no good fruits to eat. I hope this "White Snake" will not die young."

In a certain manor, several women gathered together and said angrily: "Damn the Tang family, they don't even let people read their books, why doesn't Your Majesty care about them!"

In a short period of time, the capital was full of resentment.

Tang Mansion.

After Tang Zhao got up, some parts of his body were still aching. He cursed Liu Jun and others a hundred times in his heart, and then walked to a certain hall to prepare for breakfast.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, several eyes looked over at him.

His footsteps paused, and he couldn't help but be surprised, and asked: "What do you think I'm doing?"
