But before they could get close, Hongyu and Qingying flew over and kicked them, and then knocked all of Jiang He's men to the ground.
Jiang He was shocked and looked at Mu Yun'an who was protected by Hongyu and Qingying: "Who are you?"
Mu Yun'an curled her red lips and uttered a few words: "Huihe County Master, Mu Yun'an."
As soon as her name was announced, Jiang He immediately turned pale. He gritted his teeth and glared at Mu Yun'an fiercely, and then said to several of his men: "Let's go!"
With that said, he and his men fled in embarrassment.
When the people around him saw that Mu Yunan had beaten Jiang He away and rescued Chen Yu, they burst into applause and praised the county lord for his might.
When Chen Yu got out of trouble, she hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed several times to Mu Yun'an and Yuan Jiahe, and cried, "Thank you, Lord County, for saving your life."
Mu Yun'an helped her up and asked, "Do you have any relatives?"
Chen Yu said: "I still have an aunt, but she is not in the capital."
Mu Yun'an patted her hand gently and said: "Don't worry, I will send someone to take you to your aunt so that you can leave this place of right and wrong."
Chen Yu was grateful and thanked him again, and the people who were watching dispersed one after another without any excitement to watch.
Mu Yunan asked Hongyu to send Chen Yu back to the general's mansion first.
When Yuan Jiahe saw Chen Yu walking away, he excitedly took Mu Yun'an's hand and said, "You are so awesome, please tell me how you did it?"
Mu Yunan pretended to be confused: "What?"
Yuan Jiahe gave her an angry look and said in an annoyed voice: "What else, of course, is Jiang He's piece of paper. How did you do it?"
Mu Yun'an shrugged and said, "Do you really believe that I did it?"
"Of course, it can't really be Old Man Chen's ghost who burned the note, right?"
In fact, Yuan Jiahe didn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods. At first, she didn't understand how Jiang He's body could catch fire, but when Mu Yun'an asked Jiang He for the written evidence, she understood everything.
How can there be such a coincidence in the world that a strange fire burned the vital documents?
In the eyes of the people, this may be the work of ghosts and gods, but in Yuan Jiahe's view, it must be related to Mu Yun'an, because she was the only one who came into contact with the note.
Mu Yun'an smiled and admitted without any concealment: "It was indeed me who did it. Since Jiang He has a document with him, we can't save Chen Yu unless we really hand over five thousand taels of silver.
But I didn’t want to be taken advantage of, so why did I give them five thousand taels of silver for nothing? So I used some tricks. While checking the authenticity of the documents, I secretly smeared white phosphorus powder on them.
This kind of thing is very easy to spontaneously ignite, and is often regarded as a will-o'-the-wisp, and Jiang He doesn't dare to catch Chen Yu again without the evidence, so we don't have to spend any money, isn't it the best of both worlds?"
After hearing the truth, Yuan Jiahe gave a sincere thumbs up: "You are so awesome. I didn't even know there was such a thing as white phosphorus powder. Where did you get it?"
Mu Yun'an raised her eyebrows proudly: "Of course Brother Yi gave it to me. He not only gave me a lot of treasures, but also taught me a lot of things."
Yuan Jiahe felt a little envious when he heard this: "It's your brother Yi again, why can't I meet such a good brother?"
Mu Yunan was afraid that she would think about the marriage again, so he took her hand and said, "Okay, let's continue shopping. Maybe your brother is already waiting for you."
Yuan Jiahe made a show of scratching her, and the two of them continued to stroll around, having fun.
