Chapter 149 Fire

Wen Zhi returned to the other courtyard angrily.

She was so angry that she was about to smash the vase.

Seeing this, the little servant girl hurriedly stopped her, and persuaded: "Princess, we can't smash it. After all, this is in Lord Gongsun's other courtyard. Have you forgotten what your mother told you when you came out?"

"Don't stop me!" Wen Zhi snatched the vase: "Today I want to smash it, but I want to smash it! Not only I want to smash this house, but I also want to burn this yard!"

"Snapped!"

The vase shattered.

The little maid turned pale with fright, but she still did not forget what her mother told her before she left. She knelt down in front of Wen Zhi and cried, "Princess, don't be angry. Even if you are angry, you don't have to do this. It's a small thing to destroy this house. I'm afraid I'll offend Lord Gongsun, what will I do if I'm sent back to the capital..."

The maid cried and hugged Wen Zhi's thigh and said.

Even kneeling on the fragments of the vase, she still didn't realize it.

Wen Zhi was taken aback when he heard this.

Before leaving, her mother and concubine specially asked her to come here for nothing else, but for the plan they said before...

Gradually returning to reason, Wen Zhi lowered his hand, looked at the kneeling maid and said, "Get up, I won't smash it."

The servant girl seemed to be reborn, and after she calmed down slightly, she slowly stood up.

Although Wen Zhi wasn't smashing things, she kept her face cold. Thinking of today's scene, she wished she could tear Li Shishi into pieces!

Why?
Why would she dare to seduce the prince like a little peasant woman?
What's more, she has a child!
It's ridiculous to think about it, Gongsun Qing was so clever that he would be attracted to this kind of woman!
Obviously he has a high position and authority, and he is also a golden branch and a jade leaf. One person is under one person and above ten thousand people. It would be nice for Gongsun Qing to get his favor without secretly laughing, but he dared to reject him!

Is he blind?

Or Li Shishi did something to him!
The more she thought about it, the more angry she was, she clenched her fist and dropped it on the table.

The little maid's knee was punctured by broken porcelain, and the blood flowed down the wound, staining her skirt red.

But she didn't dare to cry out for pain. Seeing that her master was still angry, she limped up to Wen Zhi with the pain, and said in a low voice: "The princess is so angry, this servant understands. But we can't lose the big because of the small things." Ah, after all, although we can't touch the lord, if Li Shishi disappears... I think there may be a turning point..."

The little maid said vaguely.

These words reminded Wen Zhi.

Now the prince loves Li Shishi so much that he cannot extricate himself, but if Li Shishi disappears, even if the prince knows that he did it, he will not dare to act rashly because of his status.

But if he hides it well, maybe the prince won't know, if he stays by his side all the time, maybe the prince will change his mind and see his goodness...

Thinking of this, she looked at the little maid with a smile on her face: "You have a great idea. I understand a lot after listening to it, but I just don't know how to do this is the best..."

Seeing this, the little servant girl hurriedly said: "What the princess has to do now is to stand still and not let the prince notice it. After a few days, when the time is right, the princess will naturally let you get what you want."

There was a sinister shrewdness in her eyes.

Wen Zhi was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed.

Li Shishi has been staying behind closed doors during this time, even spending less time sitting in the yard.

Although Mrs. Liu also came to see her, she only looked sleepy and seldom said anything.

Mr. Liu came over several times, brought her some scriptures, sat for a while and then went back.

In the middle of the night, the wind blew up.

Li Shishi folded her clothes together to gather the charcoal fire in the stove, and sat by the window, lost in thought.

There was a rustling sound outside the door.

It's just that she was in a trance and didn't realize it.

Until she saw the red light soaring into the sky outside the window, it seemed to be on fire.

Almost instantly, she stood up from the table, ran to the door and opened it.

The heat wave is coming in an instant!

She subconsciously stretched out her hand to cover it, but saw the raging fire in front of her eyes!
on fire!

She watched the fire outside, which appeared to be lit around the house.

But she didn't pile up any combustibles around the room, why did she return it!
But it seems too late to trace the source of the fire.

She hurried back to the house to wake up the child, and covered the child's mouth and nose with wet quilt and handkerchief.

"Run forward with your head bowed!" Li Shishi shouted.

Seeing the billowing smoke rushing out of the house, Li Shishi realized that the fire was so big.

Fortunately, she has learned the knowledge of fire escape before, and the school has organized fire escape drills more than once.

She recalled the knowledge she had learned before, and led the children to run out from the place where the fire had not yet spread.

But the fire that filled the sky still ruthlessly devoured the house.

There were footsteps outside the yard.

The villagers who saw the fire rushed to put out the fire with buckets.

The villagers shouted that the water was gone, while carrying buckets to water it.

Li Shishi entrusted the children to neighbors and joined the firefighting team.

Suddenly, a person appeared at the door, and behind him stood more than a dozen men in black.

Seeing that the fire was getting stronger and stronger, he rushed in regardless of the danger.

But the people behind him stopped him, knelt down in front of him and said, "My lord, the fire is too strong, going in rashly may be life-threatening! You must not put yourself in danger!"

The person who came was Gongsun Qing.

After learning that his subordinates reported that the hospital was on fire, he hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out.

When he arrived at the hospital, he saw the flames in the yard rising into the sky and thick smoke billowing. He was afraid that Li Shishi would die in the flames.

Even though his subordinates blocked him repeatedly, he continued to rush in desperately.

Just as soon as I entered the yard, I met Li Shishi who was carrying a bucket to fetch water.

Li Shishi also saw him, and was stunned.

How could he come?

But before she was allowed to think too much, Gongsun Qing rushed over and hugged her in his arms.

"It's a good thing you're fine!"

He just finished saying this, but was pushed away by Li Shishi.

Coldly, she looked at Gongsun Qing and said, "I'm not in the mood to mess around with you right now, don't block me!"

With that said, she hurried out again.

Gongsun Qing frowned,
Looking back at Li Shishi.

Clenched teeth.

The guards outside the door ran in and asked Gongsun Qing if he wanted to put out the fire.

Gongsun Qing didn't speak, just nodded.

A fire burned from midnight until dawn.

Although Li Shishi and the children were not in danger, the house was destroyed.

Li Shishi's eyes filled with tears as she looked at the burned-out house in the courtyard.

Why, why must it be her!
Her legs seemed to lose strength, and she suddenly fell to her knees, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She looked at the house in front of her and murmured: "Yu Xue, I'm sorry for you after all!"

After saying this, she closed her eyes and passed out.
