Xiao Chengyi chuckled lightly and said in an arrogant tone: "But I don't believe in this evil." As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and waved his mother Li who was kneeling on the ground. Her body went limp and she fell to the ground unconscious.
The next day, a piece of news shocked the entire capital. The famous Jingyue Tower on Hongfen Street caught fire in the middle of the night, killing the mother who was in charge.
But all the girls in the building escaped.
Jingyue Tower, which used to be a prosperous place, turned into ruins overnight. When Yuan Qirui heard the news, he almost vomited blood in anger.
Because this Jingyue Tower is his private property, and it is also the most profitable one. Moreover, this Jingyue Tower is not an ordinary Qinglou, it is a place he uses to win over courtiers and find out secrets.
Now that it was burned to the ground, his years of hard work were destroyed.
But he couldn't openly investigate this matter. After all, it was private property. If others knew that it was his property, he would definitely be impeached by the officials.
He endured his anger and ordered his subordinates: "Go and investigate. I want to know who dares to go against me."
...
General's Mansion.
When Mu Yun'an woke up, she heard that Jingyue Tower had been burned down by a fire. She felt strange that they were still fine when they escaped last night.
The only possibility is that after Xiao Chengyi sent her back, he took revenge on her behalf.
Although it was just a guess, Mu Yun'an felt that Xiao Chengyi had done this. She hugged the quilt and sat on the bed, thinking about Xiao Chengyi's heart.
Yuli walked in with water. Seeing the silly smile on Mu Yunan's face, she asked curiously: "Miss, what kind of dream are you having?"
Although Mu Yun'an was too frightened last night, she didn't have any nightmares. She slept peacefully until dawn. She saw that her hands had been re-bandaged, and there was still a faint fragrance from the incense burner in the room.
She asked: "Brother Yi sent me back last night?"
"Yes, Master Yi bandaged your wounds after he sent you back. He was afraid that you would have nightmares and lit some soothing incense in the room."
Yuli said, putting down the things in her hands, and then advised: "My lady, you better not go out in the future. Something will happen to you as soon as you go out. It is thanks to Master Yi that you are safe every time. But
What should you do if Master Yi is not here?"
Mu Yun'an curled her lips, a little unhappy: "Why is he not here? Brother Yi will never leave me."
Yuli choked, and sighed: "But Master Yi will get married and have children one day. He can't stay by your side all his life, unless..."
Her eyes lit up, she smiled and joked: "Unless Miss, you marry Master Yi, then you will never be separated."
Mu Yun'an blushed, gave her an angry look and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? He is my brother."
Yuli, however, was a little disapproving: "We are not biological brothers. Besides, even brothers and sisters who are close to each other cannot stay together for the rest of their lives. Only husband and wife can."
"couple?"
Mu Yunan kept thinking about what Yuli said, feeling a faint impulse in her heart.
She had never thought about marrying Xiao Chengyi before, she just regarded him as her brother, but now she is a little moved.
She and Xiao Chengyi are not biological siblings. Since Xiao Chengyi doesn't like her cousin, can she...
Mu Yun'an wrung her fingers, her face turned red, and her heart was beating fast.
