Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 48

Chapter 048 Burning Of Hui Ning
Capital, Yun Mansion.

Suddenly, a group of people jumped down from the fence of the courtyard and ran into the courtyard with a long saber in hand. However, after a few steps, these people suddenly felt that something was wrong because they did not see a single person in the mansion!

However, when they saw a faint halo of gold and silver in the room not far from them, everyone’s eyes immediately lit up. The precautions they had just taken immediately dispersed, gathered together, and continued to run towards the room in front of them.

However, just as they arrived at the door, a large net suddenly fell down, covering all of them. Dozens of guards immediately walked out of the room and said, “Arrest them!”

The guardian quickly tied me up tightly.

As for the other courtyards of the Cloud Manor, Auntie was also like this. When she finally captured everyone, she counted the number of people. There were a total of 50 people!

The guards were shocked by this word. Who exactly had such a deep hatred for Yun Clan? He actually attacked Yun Mansion at this time! Fortunately, they were prepared!

“Butler Liu, what should we do with these people?” When the guardian came to inquire, the people who had been captured were all wailing, and the people who had fallen asleep in Yun Mansion were also awake.

Housekeeper Liu thought for a moment and directly instructed, “Bind all these people firmly and send them to the governor. Let the rest be handled by the governor.” These things were already ordered by the fourth young lady before she left. Housekeeper Liu will do as she pleases.

Moreover, the security of the capital was originally managed by the governor of the capital, so handing it over to the governor of the capital was naturally the most appropriate.

Qiushuang, the maidservant beside Madam Yuan, walked in from outside the courtyard and found that many people were tied up. She frowned and said, “Butler Liu, Old Madame asked this servant to ask what happened in the manor?”

Housekeeper Liu saw that it was a first-class maidservant beside Madam Yuan, and his expression became slightly better. “It’s just that some blind thieves came to the manor to steal property. Now that they’ve been caught, please rest assured, Matriarch.”

…

At the Eldest Princess’ Mansion, in the middle of the night, everyone had already fallen into a coma.

“Let’s go! Let’s go!” A shrill and terrified scream pierced through the night sky, rippling back and forth above the Eldest Princess’ mansion.

Chaotic footsteps sounded, mixed with all sorts of anxious voices.

The Eldest Princess immediately put on her clothes and ran towards the backyard. The maidservant came to report that it was actually her daughter’s courtyard.

He hurriedly ran to the courtyard of county princess Hui Ning and saw that half of the houses in the courtyard had been burned down. He didn’t expect that the running water would be so serious!

“Quick, quickly put out the fire. Has the county princess come out yet?” The Eldest Princess saw that a personal maid of County Lord Huining, Banxia, had already run out and anxiously grabbed her.

Pinellia’s face was pale and her body trembled.

As soon as she finished speaking, the Eldest Princess extended her palm and landed on Ban Xia’s cheek. “Bastard, the county princess hasn’t come out yet, yet you dare to run out! Quickly go back and find the county princess!”

Pinellia’s cheeks immediately reddened from the slap. The eldest princess knew that if county princess Huining couldn’t get out, her life would be over. She didn’t care about the fire anymore and went in.

The Eldest Princess immediately ordered a few people to go in and look for county princess Hui Ning. She also instructed many people to put out the fire and mobilized the entire Princess Manor. Everyone knew that county princess Hui Ning was the Eldest Princess’ eyeball. She was usually afraid of being knocked on. She didn’t know which one of them didn’t have eyes and actually dared to set a fire.

The Eldest Princess was so anxious in the courtyard that no matter how smart her brain was, it was still pasty at this time.

Just as everyone was busy turning around to put out the fire, no one noticed that a figure had left the Eldest Princess’ Mansion through the back door.

Just as the Eldest Princess was about to burst into the fire with an anxious expression, she saw that county princess Huining had been helped out and immediately walked over, “Huining, how are you?”

County princess Hui Ning was smoked for a long time, and her pale face was slightly black. She was on the verge of death, but she gritted her teeth and said, “I … I’m fine.”

The Eldest Princess saw that Hui Ning was like this and immediately instructed, “Help the county princess to my courtyard first. Quickly get the imperial physician.”

Everyone moved again.

Very quickly, the imperial physician arrived. After a diagnosis, he said, “County princess is fine. It’s just that she has been smoked for a long time and her lungs are a little dirty. These days, she needs to stay in bed properly. I’ll prescribe some medicine first. County princess will eat it first.”

After he finished speaking, he handed a prescription to the eldest princess. “The county princess is frightened this time. She needs to take good care of herself. She must not start a fever. Otherwise, it will be difficult to cure her. This prescription contains medicine to prevent the fever. The eldest princess will let someone boil it for the county princess to take.”

After the Eldest Princess heard this, she no longer had any doubts and immediately asked the maidservant to go down and cook medicine.

However, the Eldest Princess was afraid that county princess Hui Ning would have a fever in the middle of the night, so she left the imperial physician in her mansion. If there were any mistakes, she could treat him in time. “Please, imperial physician Wang has been wronged in the princess’ mansion all night.”

Imperial Physician Wang said respectfully, “Naturally.” Someone brought imperial physician Wang down to arrange accommodation.

After the medicine was cooked and given to county princess Hui Ning, county princess Hui Ning fell asleep unconsciously. The Eldest Princess asked all the maids and granny in the county princess’ courtyard to kneel down. Her expression changed, “What’s going on? How can a good courtyard go into the water?”

The weather was already hot and dry. Everyone in the room was paying attention to the placement of combustibles. This was simply arson.

“I don’t know what the Eldest Princess said. The fire wasn’t ignited from the county princess’ room. It was a junk room. However, before the junk room could extinguish the fire, it was already ignited to the county princess’ room.”

At this time, the guardian sent by the Eldest Princess to investigate had already returned. “Reporting to the princess, the fire in the county princess’ courtyard has been extinguished. It has been investigated. Someone has set fire oil on the ground.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone immediately took a deep breath!

Everyone kneeling on the ground could only lower their bodies, their bodies trembling like chaff, “Please spare me, please spare me!”

“Everyone on duty tonight and the people in charge of the warehouse will be dragged down and beaten to death!” If this kind of person stayed, he might harm his daughter’s life next time.

Very quickly, half of the people on the ground were gone. The people on the ground knelt down even more respectfully, not daring to breathe out. Especially when they heard the cries for help coming from outside, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and the clothes on their backs were wet.

“For the rest of these people, death penalty can be avoided and death penalty can’t be avoided. They will be fined three months!” The Eldest Princess still didn’t feel relieved after letting these people go. Tonight, her only daughter was almost burned to death, so she was afraid when she remembered.

“Thank you, Eldest Princess.”

The Eldest Princess swept her gaze over the guardian before she said, “Continue to investigate who set the fire. Today’s matter definitely cannot be settled like this.”

“Princess, the county princess has a fever!” The maidservant behind her screamed as she stepped down.

The Eldest Princess no longer cared about these maids. She immediately instructed, “Quickly send for the imperial physician.” She walked to the edge of the bed and looked at the woman with an abnormal blush. Her eyes turned red. “What kind of sin has she committed?”

Imperial Physician Wang quickly rushed back. Seeing county princess Hui Ning’s expression, his expression changed and he immediately began to treat her.

After county princess Hui Ning’s fever subsided, it was already two hours later. Everyone’s faces were filled with exhaustion.

After a night of torment, the sky had already turned gray. County Lord Hui Ning opened his eyes and felt as if his throat was about to burn, “Water …”

The maidservant Qianxia immediately brought over a cup of tea. After the county princess of Hui Ning drank it, she felt a little more at ease. Her memories of last night instantly returned to her cage, and her expression froze. “Find out who set the fire last night?”

Qianxia did not dare to conceal anything. “Reporting to the county princess, she is a maidservant who just entered the manor. However, after putting out the fire last night, she did not see that maidservant. She may have been burned to death.”

County princess Huining was grateful and knew that the eldest princess had intervened. With the eldest princess intervening, she was naturally faster than him in investigating the case, so she didn’t say anything.

However, considering the weather, it was time for news to spread, “Did anyone come to see me since the accident last night?”

“There is a guardian here, but the Eldest Princess is blocking him. He is afraid that it will affect the county princess’ rest.”

“Call someone in.”

Not long after, Zhang Kang walked in. He bowed respectfully, “Back to county princess, The people we sent out of town still haven’t got any news back, Perhaps the city gates were closed and no news could be sent in. However, this subordinate had just received news that the county princess who bribed the people to cause trouble in the Cloud Manor had actually been kidnapped by the steward of the Cloud Manor to see the governor in the middle of the night. This subordinate also inquired about them. The people sent to the Cloud Manor were not injured in the slightest, and the people from the Cloud Manor were not injured either.

County Lord Hui Ning’s pale face froze, and killing intent immediately flashed in his bright eyes. “What exactly happened? It’s impossible not to be injured in a fight.”

Zhang Kang didn’t understand, he just lowered his eyebrows and listened.

County princess Huining’s heart trembled, “Perhaps our people were arrested before the fight broke out.”

Zhang Kang’s expression also changed slightly. He thought carefully and found that there was indeed such a possibility. If that was the case, the matter would really be troublesome. “What are the county princess’s plans?”

County Lord Hui Ning rubbed his eyebrows and said, “Let’s continue searching for the whereabouts of the Third Prince. You can go down first.”

However, County Lord Hui Ning’s mind started to spin rapidly. He recalled everything that had happened yesterday. The Prince he had encountered when he left the city today was already dead. The Third Prince had disappeared, and then another Prince had died. What exactly was going on? She always felt that something was wrong.

There was nothing wrong with the things he had arranged for himself, but the people he had sent to the Cloud Manor were kidnapped in vain. Could it be that the Yun Manor’s guardians were really so formidable?

No, there seems to be something wrong!

County Lord Hui Ning’s expression turned cold, and his pale face flickered with killing intent!

Yun Xiao, are you reborn just like me? Or was it really so difficult to deal with?

A bolt of lightning flashed past, illuminating County Lord Huining’s pale face. “County Lord, it’s raining. You’re not in good health now. You should rest first.”

County princess Hui Ning looked out of the window. The sound of rain came from the patter of rain, and he felt somewhat irritated in his heart.

Tomorrow, it’s really going to be a storm!
