The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 317 317. Lightning strike

"The most urgent thing is to go to the prison and find out where Nehe went after he left? And why did he show up at the General's Mansion to assassinate the Ninth Prince? Knowing this, maybe we can find a way to save Brother Feng."

General Su suggested, and at the same time he also recommended himself to handle this matter.

But now that the Ninth Prince was under tight guard, they wanted to go in and interrogate him openly, but they were afraid it would be impossible, so they had to find a way.

Xiao Muqian glanced at his second uncle and suddenly said.

"I heard from the military supervisor that there will be thunderstorms in the next few days. If it accidentally hits the general's mansion, it might start a fire."

The words were not said clearly, but the meaning was already obvious.

Hua Shi and Feng Jinhua looked at each other and even plotted against their second uncle's mansion. This young general was really a figure!

Xiao Ji patted Xiao Muqian's shoulder and said with a slight smile.

"You kid, why did you go back to the Eastern Capital City and everyone became so cunning? Did you make bad friends in the Capital City?"

Xiao Muqian just smiled and didn't reply.

Is it possible that he would say that he got all these bad ideas from Su Cheng and Feng Jinlin?

Why don't General Su and the Feng family beat him up?

In the next few days, Fengshan was imprisoned in the General's Mansion. Perhaps he heard about the Feng family's efforts to raise money to redeem people, so the Ninth Prince was polite to him and did not let anyone torture him.

As for himself, he was hiding in the main room, nominally recovering from his injuries, but actually having fun with Ling Guang.

No one was left to guard the yard, as they were afraid that their affairs would be leaked.

If his masculine behavior were reported to his father, it would probably cause an uproar.

Therefore, his own preferences are important, but if it is for imperial power, he can do it at any cost.

"Your Highness, the Feng family really does not eat or drink fine wine for toasting. If they serve all these during the banquet, why do they have to suffer this jail sentence?"

Lian Guang said while serving the Ninth Prince.

"Hmph, how can we say they are a group of untouchables? How shameless! We have to put a knife to our necks before we are willing to spend money to eliminate disasters."

In his eyes, he was very disdainful of what the Feng family, or the merchant family, had done.

When I thought that someone would come to honor me soon, I immediately felt much more comfortable, and even looked at the general's mansion much more pleasing to the eye.

"General Su has been coming very frequently these days. It's almost as if he has been staying in His Highness's courtyard every day."

Nong Guang complained that he felt a little scared every time he saw General Su, always worried that he would reveal his identity.

By then, the Ninth Prince will be a noble man in the sky, and he will at most receive a few words of reprimand, but it will be different for him, and he will definitely not get any good fruits.

A chill ran through my body when I thought of this, and I couldn't help but lean closer to the Ninth Prince.

Soon, the two were caught in the ripples again.

Maybe he was too tired, or maybe he was too relaxed. Just when the Ninth Prince was sleeping soundly with Lian Guang in his arms, he heard the noise outside.

"The water has escaped! The water has escaped!"

The sound came from far to near, so frightened that Lian Guang sat up in shock.

He quickly pushed the Ninth Prince beside him and said anxiously, "Your Highness, get up quickly, you're in trouble!"

The word "Zhuishui" suddenly woke up the Ninth Prince who was still sleeping. He quickly went to the ground to get dressed. They didn't even have time to clean up the bed, so the two of them hurried out.

But when they were in a hurry, they didn't notice that the person in the dark saw what they were doing.

The Ninth Prince had just stepped out when he smelled the smell of thick smoke.

Gong Guang tore off his clothes and handed it to the Ninth Prince. He casually covered his mouth and nose, and the two hurriedly ran outside.

The fire was so powerful that at first sight more than a dozen houses were on fire.

Perhaps it was due to disrepair, or perhaps it was the dryness of the northwest. No matter what the reason was, it was burning horribly at the moment.

Worried about the safety of the Ninth Prince, Lian Guang escorted him and ran towards the gate of the General's Mansion.

On the way, he met some people who were about to carry water to put out the fire. He immediately grabbed it and poured water on the Ninth Prince from head to toe, and then he also got wet all over himself.

"Your Highness, this is safer."

The Ninth Prince had never experienced a fire, so naturally he didn't know how to protect himself.

However, it was probably okay for Lian Guang to react like this, so they didn't care about punishing him, and the two of them ran quickly outside the house.

Fortunately, they were quick on their feet. When they escaped, they saw that none of his men who lived with him in the general's mansion came out.

Suddenly my heart dropped!

The Ninth Prince and Lian Guang were showered with water, while the terrifying lightning strikes in the sky continued.

There was only thunder but no rain. This time they really saw it.

The dark sky and the thunder and lightning that seemed to be about to hit his head made the always conceited Ninth Prince feel a little frightened.

"The fire must have started because the house in the general's mansion was struck by lightning."

Long Guang grew up among the people, so he had naturally seen lightning striking houses, so for him, it was not that scary.

But the Ninth Prince was different. Lightning strikes were not a good sign for the royal family.

If this happened in the palace, I'm afraid my father would have to write a criminal edict.

And this thunder and lightning did not strike others but only struck the general's mansion. Could it be that it was a warning to him?

After all, he deserved the great victory in Liangzhou City and everything today. Thinking of this, even his usually domineering temperament now made him feel a little worried and guilty.

After the thunder and lightning, it started pouring soon.

After being washed away by the rain, the General's Mansion was even more dilapidated, giving off a sense of lifelessness.

When Xiao Ji led his troops to come for support, the Ninth Prince originally wanted to get angry, but when he thought of the lightning strike just now, he shut his mouth again.

"General Xiao, please get up quickly."

"Your Highness, the first priority is to find you a place to stay, change into clean clothes, and then find a doctor to see your injury. If the wound you were stabbed before festered due to being exposed to the rain, it will be very troublesome."

When Xiao Ji mentioned this, not to mention the Ninth Prince, even Lian Lian Guang felt a little guilty.

His injuries were fake to begin with. In times of crisis, no one bothered to put on a bandage, so there wasn't even a scar under the tight-fitting underwear that had been washed away by the rain.

After quickly covering his chest, the Ninth Prince remembered and said pretending to be weak.

"Everything is at the discretion of General Xiao!"

"yes!"

They put on the raincoats they brought and immediately escorted them to the nearest restaurant.

The restaurant here is still the property of the Hua family. In times of emergency, we can't kick out all the residents, so we have to reserve the Tianzihao floor so that the Ninth Prince can "heal" quickly.

At this moment, Xiao Muqian and General Su were rescuing Fengshan and Nehe in the dungeon of the General's Mansion.
