Suddenly, the door outside was opened. Bai Chen and Shi Ziqiang ran inside and shouted,
"Shihan, Shihan, where are you?"
Hearing their cries, Ye Shihan suddenly became energetic. He hugged her hard and climbed up, moving step by step towards the direction they came from.
The fire burned for half the night, and they were busy for half the night.
The people who escaped from the sea of fire all had gray stains on their faces and were wearing underwear. They were no less embarrassed than Su Muer at the time.
Su Mu'er was still unconscious. He was lying on Ye Shihan's lap and sitting next to her.
The guests in this inn were all ashen-faced. They were beating their chests and feet, feeling extremely annoyed as they looked at the inn that had been burned to the ground.
This picture makes people moved every time they see it.
Bai Chen and Shi Ziqiang kept standing, staring at the burned-out inn.
"Master, what should we do?" Liu Hai wiped the gray stains on his face, biting his lip, looking at a loss.
"Do you still have any money with you?"
His voice suddenly sounded a bit desolate. He, the Seventh Highness of the Imperial Court, could find himself in such a miserable state. There were also Su Muer and Doudou in front of him. He wanted to protect them, but they ended up homeless.
Liu Hai shook his head, "I didn't have time to take it out, it must have been burned to ashes."
Hearing this, Ye Shihan's eyes became even colder.
Bai Chen waved his fist angrily,
"This Laiyang City is really lawless. It has been on fire for such a long time and no one came to save it. I will go find that Xiong Heng and talk to him now."
As soon as he finished speaking, an old man carrying a load suddenly came over. He glanced left and right, then came to Bai Chen and said softly:
"Young men, are you from other places? Are you afraid that you will offend the Xiong family just after arriving in Laiyang? I advise you to leave Laiyang as soon as possible, otherwise, something may happen tomorrow."
Seeing the old man carrying the burden shaking his head in worry, Bai Chen's face was always filled with black lines.
"You mean? This fire has something to do with the Xiong family?"
The old man sighed, "Who would have the guts except the Xiong family? And you didn't see it. The nearby businesses didn't dare to come out to help put out the fire. They could only watch helplessly as this place was burned to ashes."
At this moment, a wailing sound came. Bai Chen looked up and saw the owner of the inn with messy hair appearing in front of the burned-to-ash house. He knelt down and cried,
"Oh my god, this is my life's hard work. How can I say it's gone? How can I live like this?"
As he spoke, he suddenly rushed toward the ashes, as if he wanted to live and die with them.
"Stop him."
Bai Chen said coldly to the two guards behind him.
Two guards came forward and held the shop owner tightly.
"Let me go and let me die. I do business carefully every day in Laiyang City. I pay a lot of taxes and fees every year. But in the end I ended up like this. This Xiong family is really unbearable."
.”
"I don't dare to say that."
The old man carrying the burden heard the shop owner's complaints and quickly spoke to stop him.
"You can scold the emperor, but you must not scold the Xiong family. Otherwise, your shop will be burned down, and your life will not be saved."
"If you don't insure, you don't insure. Anyway, my home is gone. How can I support my wife and children? It's better to just die."
The innkeeper leaned on the ground and cried sadly.
Bai Chen looked at him, feeling a little guilty. He knew in his heart that the inn was burned down because they beat Xiong Batian violently in the street yesterday.
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists, biting his lips with fierce eyes,
"I'm going to find Xiong Heng now."
"etc."
The moment he turned around, he was stopped by Shi Han's cold call.
"Do you have anything on you that can prove your identity?"
Bai Chen looked up and down. Even his official uniform was burned by the fire. There were no other items left. Even the jade pendant given by the emperor was destroyed in the flames.
"No, with my face, how dare he deny it?"
Ye Shihan snorted coldly, "If he wanted to admit it, he wouldn't come and set fire to this place. You'd better not work in vain."
"Then what do we do?"
Shi Ziqiang's weak voice came, "This place is at least 8,000 miles away from the capital. It takes more than ten days to go back and forth by horseback. It's too late to go back now."
At this moment, Su Muer's fingers moved, she coughed lightly, and Doudou stood up and called softly,
"Mom, are you awake? You were scared to death Doudou."
Su Mu'er opened her weak eyes, and what came into view were Doudou's big, watery eyes and Ye Shihan's affectionate eyes.
She knew that she was not dead.
"you're awake?"
He whispered in her ear, she nodded, looked up, and when she saw the blue sky, she immediately understood that they were living on the street again.
She looked at him and smiled bitterly,
"It seems that the fire in Laiyang burns more frequently."
Ye Shihan raised his hand to wipe off the gray stains on her face, and then whispered bitterly:
"Don't worry, I won't let go of the Xiong family. I never thought that something like this would happen to the people of the Eastern Jin Kingdom."
At this time, Xiaodie's call suddenly came,
"Miss, miss."
She ran to her crying and fell to her knees directly. Seeing the young lady's appearance, she had already burst into tears.
Su Muer smiled helplessly,
"How did you come?"
Xiaodie looked up and looked not far away, "Mr. Leng is here too. He heard someone said there was a fire here, and he also knew that His Highness offended the Xiong family yesterday, so he expected that you are still outside now."
After hearing Xiaodie's words, Ye Shihan and Su Muer looked not far away together.
Leng Qiu was seen walking towards this side with a group of servants behind him, and Ye Shihan's eyes suddenly showed a trace of emotion.
There are many people who are the icing on the cake. It is rare to find someone who can help someone when they are away from home.
Leng Qiu felt a sigh in his heart when he saw that several court officials who were so prosperous yesterday were now in such a state of desolation today.
He quickly stepped forward and came to Ye Shihan's side and bowed. Ye Shihan hurriedly stood up.
"Master Leng, I made you laugh."
Leng Qiu hurriedly waved his hand, "In Laiyang, anything is possible."
Bai Chen stepped forward and looked at him angrily, "Could it be that the Xiong family did it?"
"Who else could there be besides them?" Leng Qiu's face was filled with hatred for the Xiong family.
The largest inn in Laiyang City was on fire. This became the biggest news in Laiyang City. Most people in the streets were talking about it.
Xiong Hengwen was sitting in Prince Laiyang's Mansion, looking a little worried.
He heard from his subordinates that these people came from extraordinary places, so he was waiting for Xiong Batian to come back and ask for details.
After a while, Xiong Batian walked in, whistling and looking proud.
Seeing Xiong Heng looking at him, he stepped forward and bowed.
