Chapter 451 The so-called black under the lights

At night, the fire that soared into the sky shocked the entire capital. The house of the Duke of Xingguo Mansion was on the street. It was only a short time before nightfall. Most people were not asleep. Those who were close to each other hurried to help put out the fire. Those who were far away stood on a high place to watch the fire scene. When they found out that the Duke of Xingguo Mansion was on fire, they were surprised.

However, this family that has been over a hundred years old has done a good job of fire prevention. Even if Mars occasionally comes out, it will not be so big or so fierce. Such a fire is more like someone setting fire.

Someone set fire at the Duke of Xingguo? This idea makes people feel cold in the vest. Why are some people setting fire at the Duke of Xingguo in this situation? What is the purpose? Is it really for the Duke of Xingguo?

"Master, this fire is so big!" Xiao Xuanzi, who was standing on the top floor of the pavilion, shrank his neck and had to sigh that this delicate Miss Qin Er, no, it was Miss Shao Wu's courage now. He actually dared to set fire in his residence, and it was so blatant. Not to mention an ordinary lady from aristocratic families, even a man would not dare to do it!

Xiao Xuanzi felt that he definitely didn't dare to do so. This was not pushing himself openly in front of everyone.

Of course, Xiao Xuanzi knew that he was a little eunuch and could not compare with others, but Xiao Xuanzi felt that even if he was a eunuch, he was braver than many men. In this regard, Xiao Xuanzi did not feel that he could not compare with other men at all.

Most men are not as brave as themselves, nor are they as brave as Miss Shao Wu!

Chu Liuchen stood in front of the window, and the long gauze hanging in front of the window was hung up. You can see the fiery redness in the distant sky more clearly, and the whole place became lively. There were people everywhere, and the voices came from the wind were faintly heard.

This momentum is indeed great!

His handsome eyes were aroused, and he was full of interest, "It seems that the yard in the Duke of Xingguo's mansion should be gone. I heard that this is the wedding house built by Duke of Xingguo for her son. It has been prepared for decades!"

"It's such a pity to prepare for so long? It's a pity, it's all gone now!" Xiao Xuanzi said a pity, the smile on her face had no sign of regret, but she smiled.

A yard that has been prepared for decades, the loss inside is not an ordinary one, two yards must be delivered to it.

There are nothing now! It’s so happy to think about it!

"I wonder if Duke Xingguo will still have a gentle attitude now. Duke Xingguo's temper is considered good in this dynasty! It's really rare. I have never seen Duke Xingguo get angry."

Chu Liuchen looked at the firelight in the distance, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked in a very good mood.

Duke Xingguo is a good man with a good temper and a good attitude. Even if there is anything angry, he will slowly untie it when he comes to him. At this point, the emperor is very respected and thinks he is calm and a material for doing things.

Originally, the emperor was no longer worried because of the separation between Princess Ruian and Duke Xingguo's mansion and the current Duke Xingguo's attitude.

A good old man with such a good temper and a good job, how could the emperor disagree?

"The Xingguo Guild suffered internal injuries!"

Xiao Xuanzi blinked and said with some meaning.

Chu Liuchen smiled slightly, but he didn't say anything, and continued to enjoy the fire scenery outside. His location here was very high, so he could see it much further than ordinary pavilions.

"Miss Shao Wu will be fine, right?" Xiao Xuanzi followed him and looked silently for a while, and said with concern.

"The little girl is smart. Leaving the Duke Xingguo Mansion? A good idea!" Chu Liuchen said lazily.

Xiao Xuanzi didn't understand very well, but he was a smart person, and his eyes turned twice: "Master, if Miss Shao Wu leaves Duke Xingguo's Mansion, what will happen to her marriage?"

Miss Shao Wu’s marriage was related to her grandfather’s marriage, and Xiao Xuanzi was very concerned about it.

Originally, Shao Wanru could not decide the marriage, the orders of her parents, and the words of the matchmaker. If she really left the Duke Xingguo Mansion, there would be no elders to decide for her, so how could she get engaged?

"There is no hurry to have a jade pendant in her marriage!" Chu Liuchen said leisurely, and his slender fingers bounced the window a few times. The fire outside the window had weakened a little bit. It seemed that it had been slowly controlled, or that this area was almost burning.

All the things that can be burned are burned, and only some of them are left!

"Prince, that piece of Wen Yu was worn by the Empress Dowager to take care of you. If you give this to Miss Shao Wu, I'm afraid the Empress Dowager doesn't like it when you see it!"

Xiao Xuanzi became worried. Why did she give the jade pendant to Miss Shao Wu?

You can give me anything, but you can't give me this jade pendant. Judging from my master's appearance, I plan to ask Miss Shao Wu to take this jade pendant to swing her in front of the Empress Dowager last year. Didn't this make the Empress Dowager angry when she saw it?

"What do you think the emperor's grandmother will see Zhuozhuo wearing this jade pendant?" Chu Liuchen said with a gentle smile.

Xiao Xuanzi felt a little tooth pain, and she sniffed her face twice, carefully reminding him: "Master, don't you really think the Empress Dowager will be angry?"

"Yes!" Chu Liuchen said with a smile.

"Then you gave the fifth lady this jade pendant and asked her to carry it?" Xiao Xuanzi was stunned. He really felt that he couldn't understand his master's thoughts. Isn't this obviously the fifth lady's hatred for the empress dowager?

Who is the world who makes the Empress Dowager hate him? Isn’t this lifeless!

Besides, even if it is fatal, no one dares to provoke the Empress Dowager. This is really hard to guess.

"I don't want to get married immediately, but this matter must be clear to the emperor's grandmother. The emperor's grandmother will take back the jade pendant, but will discuss it with Princess Ruian."

Chu Liuchen's extremely leisurely way.

So, although there is no open engagement, it is actually equivalent to the adults of both families agreeing. Xiao Xuanzi found out a little bit and was immediately overjoyed.

As for why it was Princess Ruian, not the grandma of Duke Xingguo's mansion, Xiao Xuanzi felt that since her master said this, it must be true. Moreover, this grandma is extremely biased and is said to be very bad to Miss Five. She had previously said that she hated Miss Five in front of everyone.

Xiao Xuanzi thinks that such a grandmother is like no other.

The Empress Dowager asked Princess Ruian to discuss the marriage of the fifth lady. As for the Grandpa of Duke Xingguo’s Mansion, since she is not good to Miss Five, don’t care about Miss Five’s marriage. Anyway, Miss Five also has Princess Ruian as an elder, and she is not without elders.

"That's great, Princess Ruian..." Xiao Xuanzi suddenly widened his eyes when he said this, and stared at the flames outside the window that were burning half of the sky red, and then gasped.

He felt that he really underestimated Miss Five!

This fifth lady who looks delicate and weak, almost fell down as soon as the wind blows, is indeed the most suitable man for her. Originally, the eldest lady of Duke Xingguo’s mansion was the most legitimate elder of the fifth lady!

But what after this incident? I am afraid that the eldest lady of Duke Xingguo’s mansion cannot act arbitrarily in the marriage of this fifth lady!

Wen Xichi's eyes in Zuo Xiang Mansion also looked at the fire. He was standing on a rockery in his yard.

The Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion is quite close to the Duke Xingguo Mansion, and it is actually next to the Lin Mansion. He can see clearly at this location. Not only did he see many people, but he also saw the girl in front of the crowd, being hugged by a few servants and retreating aside. Among the crowds of people, he became more and more crowded.

He also saw the wife of Duke Xingguo rushed over and almost fainted on the ground as soon as he entered the door. If it weren't for the support of a few servants, he would have been weak there.

Then Duke Xingguo came over and brought a large group of people to help put out the fire.

Such a big fire burned the entire yard, and you can tell at a glance that someone was setting fire.

The incident of Qin Wanru becoming Shao Wanru and becoming the biological daughter of the former Duke of Xingguo was rumored to be a sensation in the entire capital before. Of course, the young lady from the Qin Mansion was also spread along with him. He heard that the young lady was a vicious and greedy person. After getting Shao Wanru's life experience from her parents, she wanted to take the lead in proposing her.

Fortunately, although the Duke Xingguo Mansion felt that the evidence she had brought out was correct, she was still a little suspicious, and she wanted the eldest lady to recognize her as her goddaughter and then do a test.

After Shao Wanru came up with real evidence and a group of witnesses, the eldest lady of the Qin family left in shame, and the young lady of the Shaowu was able to officially recognize her ancestors.

The Duke Xingguo Mansion was very satisfied with the newly recognized fifth lady, so he hurriedly opened the ancestral hall to recognize his relatives. Today, during the day, the Duke Xingguo Mansion was also lively for a long time. It should be the matter of recording the Miss Shao Wu in the family tree. Unexpectedly, it was the night before, when someone secretly lit the fire here.

This place should be the newly-developed yard of this Miss Shao Wu?

It happened to be...

"Three Cousin, Third Cousin." A delicate voice came from below. Wen Xichi lowered his head and looked at his cousin walking out of the shadow, his eyes were unclear.

"Three cousin, what happened? I... am going to burn it?" Gu Xishu looked nervous, her face was pale, her hair was slightly covered. She knew she had gone to bed at a glance. She was woken up at this time. Her clothes were still a little messy, but even though they were messy, they still looked a little weak and pitiful, which was a very distressing look.

But this kind of weakness is too artificial, and it is not in the bones. Compared with Shao Wanru's childish charm, it cannot be compared with that of the woman. Such a woman has a firm tenderness, but also has a sparse temperament, which is completely incomparable to Gu Xishu. After seeing the firm softness, Gu Xishu in front of her is obviously not enough to see.

Wen Xichi suddenly felt very strange. He has always been clear about people. Why hasn't he seen Gu Xishu's gentle and gentle pretended to be so fake for so many years? He was in vain that he even treated her wholeheartedly as his own sister, thinking that she was weak in character, kind in nature, and could not make tricks!

It’s like this to Gu Xishu, and it’s like this to see her second brother. When she’s in vain, she always looks at others, and believes wholeheartedly about them.
