MTL - Rebirth of the Marquis’ Di Daughter-Chapter 201
Antaiyuan has been burned beyond recognition. When Ouyang Nuan arrived, he saw Zhang Guanshi order people running around in the yard with water bags, water sacs, water basins and other fire-fighting things, and directing the people to fight the fire.
However, the fire continued to burn into the main room, and the fire became more and more intense, and the fire almost reddened half of the sky.
Although Director Zhang had done his best, the flames were burning more and more vigorously. There was a rush of noise, the roof collapsed, the flames flew into the air, and countless flying Mars spread like fireworks.
Ouyang Nuan knew that he should not be near, and retreated to a safe place with Hongyu and watched the crowd go up to the fire, his heart secretly anxious.
Just then, the steward Zhang hurried out, kneeling in front of Ouyang Nuan, "Sir concubine, the fire is too great!"
Ouyang Nuan quickly said, "Instruct everyone to do their best to fight the fire. If you can't, don't force it. Keeping your life is the most important thing! Money is a foreign object! Also, let people go to find the doctor in case someone Injured! "She said, while secretly worried that she had come all the way just now, but she did not see Xiao Chongjun. Could he still be in the room? !! Thinking of this, she immediately asked, "Did you see the grandson?"
Everyone shook his head, Ouyang Nuan's heart sank slightly. Just then, a girl suddenly fell in front of Ouyang Nuan: "Sir concubine, save my lady!"
Ouyang Nuan saw the girl's face clearly, and she was startled suddenly: "Aunt is in it?"
"Yes, miss ..." The girl looked back at the crowds of different faces, and could no longer hide it, eagerly, "The lady said that she was leaving soon, and she had to sneak back to retrieve some important things. Who knew that it happened suddenly? It's a fire, concubine, slaves, please, save my lady! "
Sun Rouning is really a fool. What is so important must be picked up in the middle of the night! Ouyang Nuan gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Guanshi, you take two people to look for it. Be sure to find the big brother and big sister!"
If Sun Rouning has any shortcomings, how should she explain to He Lantu? !! Ouyang Nuan's brow frowned deeply, and her eyes looked anxiously at the flaming fire.
Zhang Guanshi also knows the importance. Although the eldest son is no longer a son, he is still the son of King Yan after all, even if the fire is inexplicable, and the person is still missing, this will cause much trouble! He immediately said: "Yes, the minion immediately took someone to look for!" Then, he chose two strong but very powerful servants to follow him, and rushed into the fire with a wet cloth over his head!
A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, and half an hour passed, Zhang Guanshi suddenly ran out with the two people, but it was dusty and angry, gray-faced, but shook at Ouyang warm with hope. Shake his head.
Ouyang Nuan's heart sank all at once. With such a big fire, how could a woman from Sun Rouning survive till now? Maybe already--
"Is there really no way to find someone?"
At this moment, Sun Rouning's girl was crying.
"Second concubine, the slaves have tried their best, but the fire in the inner room is too big to get in!" Zhang Guanshi's face was horrified, but she had to answer.
Ouyang Nuan shook her head and said, "I understand, you should continue to fight the fire. Try to put out the fire on the periphery first, and don't let it spread to other yards. Go."
"Yes." Zhang Guanshi shook his head in regret in his heart, and as soon as he turned around, he suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone followed his gaze, and from that flame, a man who was on fire all over him hugging another person and rushed out.
Everyone was shocked. Ouyang Nuan reacted first and shouted, "Someone is coming out! Hurry and save someone!"
Everyone rushed forward, took off their shirts, and waved at the fireman. The man fell to the ground and rolled, and the man in his arms fell from his hand and rolled to the other side. The flame on the person who was originally held in his arms has been extinguished, his hair and clothes are smoking, his face is all black, and I don't know how many wounds, it looks very miserable. Ouyang Nuan walked quickly: "Rou rather?!"
The rescued person was Sun Rouning. What about another person? !! Ouyang warmly looked at the other person. He had no luck like Sun Rouning. His whole body was hurt and his hair was burnt. When the flame on his body was gone, he was dying.
For some reason, Ouyang Nuan knew that he was Xiao Chongjun without looking at his face! She handed the comatose Sun Rouning to the girl next to her, and hurried over: "Brother ?!"
The man looked up, his eyes widened. Ouyang Nuan shouted out: "Doctor! Come and see!"
The doctor who had been waiting for a while quickly passed by, shaking his hands and shaking his pulse, his face changed, and then shook his head at Ouyang Nuan.
Ouyang Nuan looked at Xiao Chongjun, his eyes were dark: "Brother——" She didn't know, why did Xiao Chongjun save Sun Rouning? She remembered that Sun Rouning had put him to death before! why!
Xiao Chongjun looked at Ouyang Nuan and coughed heavily. He did not expect that the person whom he saw before he died was the one he hated most during his lifetime. At this moment Ouyang Nuan's face showed a confused expression, but he sneered. Who can understand him? Who can really understand him? Doesn't he ever care about Sun Rouning? It's a pity-his weak body can't love anyone at all! Why should he explain something to others! There was a twitch in his body, and his head fell suddenly, and he was out of breath.
Everyone stood on the spot and didn't know what to do.
After a long long time, Ouyang Nuan stood up and said coldly, "Send someone to guard the Yan King Mansion, all suspects will be caught!" Antaiyuan will not catch fire for no reason, someone must have set fire on purpose!
Hongyu whispered: "Miss, don't you care about this--" Anyway, Sun Rouning is okay, why bother Xiao Chongjun's death?
Ouyang Nuan shook her head. If the heart was really written by someone else at Yan's King's Mansion, she wouldn't listen to it. Wouldn't she be heartless when she looked at the joke? !!
Ruby no longer dared to talk, and carefully guarded Ouyang Nuan with Changpu.
Everyone was thrown into the fire, so they quickly controlled the situation. The fire did not spread to the surroundings, but Antaiyuan was almost burned, and even the next yard was burned half.
Sun Rouning was awake, she was covered with hair, and she was wrapped in a cloak outside, but she seemed frightened, hiding in the arms of the girl with trembling, her eyes were dull, and when Ouyang was warm, she grasped her hand, hoarse With a throat, "Nuaner ... Nuaner, I'm so scared!" She just wanted to get back a jewelry box left by her mother when she married in it. Who knows that there will be a sudden fire!
Ouyang Nuan patted her hand sympathetically, and said softly: "It doesn't matter, don't be afraid, everything is over, you have been rescued, it's okay ..."
Sun Rouning's tears stayed behind, and a little confusion gradually appeared in her eyes. She looked at Ouyang Nuan and couldn't believe it: "How did I come out?"
Ouyang Nuan gave a meal, and then some did not know how to answer her. Should I tell her that the person she hated most rescued her? But—she didn't have time to answer, and the girl next to her had already replied, "Miss, it's the eldest son ... he rescued you."
Xiao Chongjun? Sun Rouning's eyes fell on Xiao Zhongjun, who had lost his breath over there, and he completely stopped for a while. It turned out to be him. How could it be him? Ouyang Nuan knew that she couldn't accept this fact at all, and the current situation was indeed beyond her expectations. She stood up and calmly said, "Director Zhang, you should immediately count the Antaiyuan to see who else is trapped in it. In the fire or unfortunately died, then send someone to carry the grandson's body to the most shady yard, prepare ice cubes to keep the body from decaying, prepare filial piety and other things, and take care of the funeral, and wait for the king to return Do the funeral again. "
"Yes." Zhang Guanshi glanced at Ouyang's warm and cold face, and did not dare to say more, and immediately took the order.
Ouyang Nuan ordered things to happen, but when she looked back, she saw Sun Rouning's expression was very strange, so she whispered: "Dasao, since this is already the case, you don't think about it." After finishing, she glanced at the girl beside Sun Rouning, "I'm not ready to help people back yet!"
However, Sun Rouning remained motionless, Ouyang Nuan looked at her: "What's wrong?"
Sun Rouning shook her head. She glanced at people with different looks around her and smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, I've given you trouble."
At first she hid in the small yard. She was taken care of three meals a day. People outside didn't know she was still alive. They all thought she was going to die soon. Now she saw her here, and the trick was completely dismantled. Now, Ouyang Nuan asked her to leave in order to protect her, but she also knew very well that she couldn't stay out of it anymore.
At this moment, Xiao Chonghua and Yan Wang rushed forward one after the other. Xiao Chonghua saw Xiao Chongjun covered with white cloth on the ground at a glance. His complexion suddenly changed, and he walked quickly, unbelievably pulling away the white cloth. , The hands trembled and couldn't help themselves.
From the beginning to the end of the King of Yan, don't look at the corpse, and sternly said: "What the **** is going on!" He saw Sun Rooning at one glance, and his face sank: "Can it be you again--"
Ouyang Nuan hurriedly said, "Master Wang! Don't get me wrong, everything has nothing to do with Dasao! I don't know why it suddenly caught fire!"
The King Yan was iron-blue, with unspeakable pain in his eyes: "Zhang Guanshi, you!"
Zhang Guanshi was so scared that his face was pale, and he quickly said, "Master, the wind is strong tonight. The night watchers found that there was a sudden fire in Antai Yuan. The minions sent someone to inform Shi Zifei, and the other side quickly brought someone to the fire! Later, I saw the eldest son coming out holding the Sun family— "Sun Rouning is not a concubine now, and because the assassination of the eldest son is so bad, so the steward of the Sun did n’t even call his grandmother, and he directly replaced him with the Sun. Obviously this It is a very disrespectful title.
Ouyang Nuan frowned.
King Yan said: "What about other suspicious situations?"
Zhang Guanshi hurriedly said: "Master, the gate of the house is locked as soon as it enters the night. Most people can't go in and out easily. When the slaves arrived with the fire rescuer, the fire in Antaiyuan had already turned half of the sky red, the slaves I was instructed to block the yard while taking people to rescue the fire. I expected that if someone set the fire, they would definitely not escape, but in the end no abnormalities were found! The minion guessed that it might be that the night maid was too sleepy and accidentally turned the lampstand over in his sleep. The lampstand ignited the covering of the tent and other things, which caused a fire. In addition, the wind was strong and the weather was very dry today. When everyone awakened from their dreams, they could not escape, and they became what they are today. "
Ouyang Nuan shook her head and said, "How many people have been injured just now?"
Zhang Guanjia said bluntly: "In addition to the eldest son, two girls and one mother were also burned to death. The others are serving in the outer courtyard, so there is no problem."
At this moment, Xiao Chonghua came quickly and said, "Ruby, help Shi Zifei go back to rest."
Ruby didn't dare to rush, she looked at Ouyang Nuan eagerly. Ouyang Nuan glanced back at Sun Rouning. Her expression had completely calmed down, and she beckoned to let Sun Rouning go back first. When she had done this, she looked at Xiao Chonghua again, but saw him stare deeply He didn't say a word to the dark Antaiyuan, and looked very shocking. Ouyang Nuan shook his head and said, "Ruby, let's go back first." Sometimes it is better to calm him down.
Ouyang Nuan returned to his yard. Someone had already waited at the gate of the yard. A closer look was Mu Hongxue.
Mu Hongxue is a smart person, knowing her special status, it is not good to run out to see the excitement, so she waited for Ouyang Nun to come back here. Ouyang Nuan was not in a mood to entertain her, but simply explained what happened tonight, and sent away the suspicious Mu Hongxue. Then Ouyang Nuan took off his clothes again and went back to bed, but he couldn't sleep over and over again. He couldn't help remembering what Mu Hongxue said just now.
"Do you think the fire was just an accident?"
"Do you know that the fire in the post hall was not an accident at the time, but someone deliberately did it, just to let me live in Yan's Mansion with justification!"
"Maybe, you eldest son have been killed!"
Ouyang Nuan sighed, yeah, Xiao Chongjun was obviously killed by someone. It is very difficult for him to escape. How can he succeed with Sun Rouning? The people behind it were also cruel and ruthless. Xiao Chongjun hadn't been working for a few days. Why did he have to do this? Moreover, the timing of the other party's choice also happened to happen so that it happened that Xiao Chongjun burned to death when he was likely to say the person behind him, which really made people have to doubt.
It was just skepticism and suspicion, Ouyang Nuan could not say in front of Mu Hongxue, because she saw the fear in the eyes of the other side, Mu Hongxue was scared, Ouyang Nuan felt that she could no longer exacerbate her fear. So she didn't say anything, just comforted her and let people send her back. In the middle of the night, Ouyang Nuan fell asleep, and this sleep didn't get up until the sky was completely bright.
Ouyang Nuan asked Hongyu: "Did not Shizi come back last night?"
"Yes, the slaves have sent people to ask, Shizi spent the night arranging aftermaths, letting the eldest son enter the prison, arrange spiritual halls, and arrange funerals."
Ouyang warmed and nodded, hearing the cloud board beating four times outside. In the rules of the Dali Dynasty, three sacrifice or auspicious events and four funeral events were called "Gods, Three Ghosts and Four", so it seems that the palace of the King of Yan has begun reporting funerals to various families.
Ouyang Nuan said: "Ruby, help me get a plain suit."
Fang Yan, who had just walked in, listened and quickly said, "Miss, don't go!"
Ouyang Nuan said: "Why?"
First, Fang Yan was afraid of catching cold. Second, he feared that there were too many ghosts in the funeral, which was easy to hurt. However, she was not good enough to say this in front of Ouyang Nuan, just saying: "The main reason is that the lady is pregnant, and it is not good to be tired after running."
Ouyang Nuan didn't listen to persuasion, but currently there is no hostess in Yan Wangfu. It would be too much if she did n’t even show up. Others would think that Yan Wangfu was too mean to this innocent bitch, plus she was pregnant and did not For other discomforts, now that she can eat, sleep and walk, why lie on the bed all day long, so she tells Ruby to get her dressed and ready.
Ouyang Nuan arrived at the lobby, and the halls were already set up. A lot of guests came one after another. When they saw Ouyang Nuan, he came over to say hello. Ouyang Nuan knew very well that these people did not come to Xiao Chongjun, but for the sake of King Yan. If you change someone else, you will never save his life for the **** who usurped the position of the son, but Wang Yan insisted on doing a funeral for Xiao Zhongjun, and the matter will become subtle all of a sudden. People from the big family disdain to come, but had to come for the sake of the king of Yan.
Ouyang Nuan asked people to accompany Zhang while he was there to accompany his guests: "Are you ready for the day?"
Zhang Guanshi said, "The king invited the Qin Tianjian people to say that he had counted the days of his death, and was ready to suspend the day for seven to forty-nine days. When the Prince heard of this, he said that he couldn't just do it casually, specially Many monks and priests were invited to set up altars for chanting. "
How could Xiao Yan be so kind? Ouyang Nuan frowned slightly and didn't ask much, but said, "Are there any?"
Zhang Guanshi said: "His Royal Highness said that the funeral could not be sloppy, and he specially sent a good coffin."
"Oh?" Xiao Yan even sent the coffin, not necessarily too diligent, Ouyang warmed his heart and stopped paying attention to it.
Zhang Guanshi asked: "Shizi didn't rest all night. Now he is still in the front hall. Now what's behind--"
Ouyang Nuan knew that although Zhang Guanshi was experienced, he was a slave and had trouble managing many things, and some people would disagree. She thought for a moment and said, "Bring the roster of the people in the house."
When Zhang Guanshi heard this, he immediately ordered someone to hold the roster. After reading the roster, Ouyang Nuan divided 30 people to entertain the guests, 20 people were responsible for pouring tea, and 10 people were responsible for receiving and sending cups and saucers. Each job was prepared with the corresponding manpower and performed its duties. She agreed with the expression on Zhang Guanshi's face, saying, "I'm not good, so I have to leave these things to you. I can just listen."
Zhang Guanshi nodded quickly and said, "Yes, slaves obey."
Ouyang Nuan listened, watching Zhang Guanshi arrange staff and handle things.
Just then, four mothers came in and said they wanted something. Zhang Guanshi was about to give them something. Ouyang Nuan glanced at Ruby, Ruby took a look at the bookkeeping book, pointed at the tea in it, and said, "This tea is wrong, go back and get it again!" The two of them stunned, and immediately shuddered and turned back.
Ouyang Nuan looked at Ruby and nodded her thumbs up. During this time, she was also thinking. Ruby is getting old. She should find a good wife for her. Although Ruby is a girl in the eyes of others, but in her eyes , Ruby and Acorus are both her left arm and right arm, especially Ruby. Growing up together from a young age, master-servant love, Ruby's loyal love, Ouyang Nuan couldn't bear to marry Ruby too far. If she chooses in Kyoto, she can only marry her to a capable and able steward, or a humble humble man. If she marries out, Ouyang Nuan can give her a large amount of dowry, which will make her worry-free in the second half of her life. But after she marries, will she be treated by her husband, Ouyang Nuan will not be able to grasp. If you marry a steward, Ruby can stay in the house, and under her eyelids, no one dares to be bad to her, but in the palace of Yan Wang, Ouyang Nuan couldn't think of a suitable candidate for a while.
Now seeing Ruby's management affairs well organized, Ouyang Nuan felt more and more that she should keep Ruby by her side, but-still had to see her own meaning.
At this moment, Ouyang Nuan saw Xiao Chonghua come in, and his uniform was okay. Ouyang Nuan knew that he had slowed down, and he couldn't help sighing: "Is everything arranged?"
Xiao Zhonghua nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about these things, go back to rest early."
Resting again, where is she so coquettish. Ouyang warmly said: "Brother is gone, and I should do my best for him."
Xiao Chonghua saw that she insisted, so she didn't say much anymore, but instructed the people nearby to take good care of him. He turned to Zhang Guanshi and said, "Those innocent mothers who were burnt to death by fire must give more money to their families. OK, you go down first. "
Zhang Guanshi quickly agreed and stepped back carefully.
Xiao Chonghua said to Ouyang that there were no outsiders in the hall: "This incident was not caused by an unintentional fire, but was intentionally set on fire."
Ouyang Nuan nodded, they thought the same. For so many years, Yan Wangfu has never had such a thing. Other places did not burn it, but Antaiyuan was burned. It was also in this sensitive period: "How do you plan to check?"
Everything is burned, and I'm afraid it will be very difficult to investigate again.
"I asked people to search the entire Antaiyuan from top to bottom. I believe that if it was artificial, there would be clues left behind." Xiao Zhonghua said this, while glancing at Ouyang Nuan's pale face, saying: " I'm tired too, let's go back and rest together, there may be many guests coming in the afternoon. "
Ouyang Nuan knew that he was trying to trick himself into going back to rest, so he only said so. He smiled at the moment and didn't disassemble him. The two returned to He Xintang to have a meal together. Then Xiao Zhonghua watched Ouyang Nuan's lunch break and waited for her. After falling asleep, I walked out and called out Ruby and Iris: "There will be a lot of guests outside this afternoon. You need to take good care of Shi Zifei, and don't let her be pinned."
"Yes," Ruby and Iris looked at each other and replied.
Shizi's solemn expression, they have never seen it before ... Hongyu looked at Xiao Chonghua and said, "Shizi, do you want to let the lady go back to Princess Mansion to avoid it?"
Xiao Chonghua froze, completely choked.
