Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 297 Rescue
Xiao Muyun pushed aside the charred wood and shouted again: "Master Hou, can you hear me? I'm Xiao Muyun, and Xi'er asked me to rescue you. She's waiting for you outside. Where are you, answer me."

This time Xiao Muyun finally heard the response.Although he couldn't hear it very clearly, he did hear it.

Not only Xiao Muyun, Xiao Cheng and Tsing Yi heard it this time.

In fact, Jing Bianhou had heard their movement long ago.It's just that what happened today was too strange, he didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, and he didn't dare to speak for a while.

Hearing that it was Xiao Muyun who came, he hesitated, wondering if he should speak.But when he heard that Yun Xi was there, his heart was relieved at once.The boy must have brought them here.

"I am here!"

When everyone heard the commotion, they didn't care about the red-hot coke on the ground, they rushed over together.Kicking away the coke blocking the way with his feet, the boots on his feet were burned instantly.

"Master Hou, where are you? I'm Tsing Yi! I'm Tsing Yi." Tsing Yi shouted loudly.

This time, there was a big movement soon.Jing Bianhou was completely relieved when he heard Tsing Yi's voice.He beat the board covering his head with all his might.

Tsing Yi and the others quickly found the exact spot this time, they all removed the blocking wood together, and as soon as they cleared away the sundries on the ground, they found a trap door.

Before they could continue digging, the secret door was suddenly opened from the ground.

I saw Jingbian Hou crawling out quickly, panting heavily regardless of the heat here.

The ups and downs of his chest showed his current mood.He thought he was about to be smothered to death in this small secret room.

At this time, his face was flushed, as if he had been steamed in a steamer.His hair was disheveled, his body was covered in sweat, and the clothes on his back were soaked through.The whole person seems to be fished out of the water.

Tsing Yi quickly supported him, "Master Hou, are you okay? What's wrong?"

Jing Bianhou shook his head weakly, patted his chest and said, "It's nothing. Let's go!"

During the whole process, he didn't say a word to Xiao Muyun, but his eyes cast Xiao Muyun's hand vaguely.

Xiao Cheng was a little bit aggrieved for Xiao Muyun, but fortunately Xiao Muyun didn't care about anything.It just cleared the obstacles in front at an extremely fast speed and cleared a passage again.

The moment Jing Bianhou went out, the crowd burst into cheers.

Yunxi even cried and rushed over, "Daddy, are you okay? What's wrong? Hongyi, Hongyi, come and check on Daddy."

Yunxi said a lot anxiously.

Jing Bianhou smiled, "Good boy, I've made you worry, Daddy is fine." As he spoke, his big hands touched Mu Mu's head.

Mu Mu seemed to understand what he meant, and also showed a sweet smile.

After leaving the fire scene, the air became much cooler, and Hou Jingbian really felt much more comfortable.The flush on his face gradually faded away.

Hong Yi hurriedly stepped forward to inspect Jing Bianhou.

When Zhang Cheng was waiting for this person, he didn't dare to go forward.They are really afraid!

If the princess hadn't insisted on going in, Lord Hou would have really died here.They are still trying to stop the princess, damn it!
Zhang Cheng and the others knelt on the side quietly waiting for Hong Yi's inspection, but no one dared to step forward.

Xiao Muyun also stood quietly behind, looking at Yimu when the father and daughter met with a smile on his face.

Yun Xihong helped Jing Bianhou with his hair.When he saw that Jingbianhou's hair was scorched by the fire, he felt sad and angry.

"Fortunately, Master Hou has been bored for a long time and lacks water, just take a rest." Hongyi heaved a sigh of relief.

Yunxi's face became a little better after hearing this.

Jingbianhou patted the dust off his body and stood up.He has already seen people like Zhang Cheng.

He frowned and walked over to help everyone up, saying: "You all get up! I don't blame you for what happened today. I was careless!"

Zhang Cheng and the others looked ashamed but couldn't say a word.

"Okay, I'm fine. You all step back, and do whatever you want! I don't need so many people here."

Zhang Cheng hurriedly whispered a few words in Jingbianhou's ear.

Jingbian Hou was taken aback and quickly took a few steps outside.As soon as he turned the corner, he saw a dark crowd.

He quickly walked over, helped the people in front of him, and cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, get up quickly! I'm fine. It's important that you are heavy in the middle of the night! I, Yuan Zhiqi, have thanked everyone here!"

Seeing that Marquis Jingbian was fine, the common people burst into cheers immediately.

"You are a good man, and now there are not many officials who can serve the common people wholeheartedly. You are a good official!" Someone suddenly said.

"That's right! I heard that Marquis Jingbian was the one who guarded the capital back then, and today I saw him defying life and death for the people. He is our patron saint!"

"It's as long as your lord is fine! Your lord will live a long life."

The common people chattered, Jing Bianhou was very moved, and his heart was warm.

After finally persuading all the people away, Marquis Jingbian returned to the place where his subordinates were.

Only then did he look at Xiao Muyun and said, "Thank you, my son, for today's matter! This Marquis is very grateful."

Xiao Muyun quickly said: "Master Hou, you are welcome! It's just a little effort."

Jingbianhou nodded slightly but did not continue talking with him.

"Go back to the Marquis Mansion! I won't just let this matter go!" said Jing Bianhou.

After arranging for those who will deal with the aftermath, a group of people followed him back to the Hou Mansion.

Along the way, Xiao Muyun lowered his head and put his hands on his back, pretending to be nonchalant.But he didn't see the cold sweat that Xiao Cheng was already in a hurry.

After everyone was seated, Zhang Yuelan came late.She didn't know anything about what happened tonight, and seeing so many people gathered in the Hou Mansion so late at night suddenly, she thought something serious happened.

She was already worried about Yuan Qingyue's matter, but now she was even more worried, and her words became a little incoherent.

Jing Bianhou got impatient and dismissed her, and gave some instructions to the butler, and then everyone sat down.

"What's your opinion on today's matter?" Jing Bianhou asked.

Zhang Cheng frowned and said first: "Master Hou, what happened today is not normal! The crying woman left quietly at some point. Didn't check it out."

Wang Zhong got angry when he heard the words, he slapped the table and stood up, shouting: "What? You said someone was trying to kill Lord Hou? Who is so bold, I, Wang Zhong, tore him alive first! Since you knew, why didn't you say it earlier! If you told me sooner ,I……"

He was about to lose his temper when he was interrupted impatiently by Jing Bianhou, "So what if I tell you! You still plan to kill those common people! When will you change your temper!"

Hearing this, Wang Zhong giggled a few times in embarrassment, scratched his head and sat down.

Then Jingbian Hou said: "That room is full of kerosene! I'm lucky today! I don't know who is so vicious."

"Master Hou, we just need to find out who set the fire today, why worry so much!" A deputy general said dissatisfied.

But Zhang Cheng looked up at Xiao Muyun, frowned, and then said: "Does Hou Ye have someone to suspect?"

Jing Bianhou didn't answer his question, instead he looked at the butler who had just entered and said, "How's the investigation going?"
