After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

The old lady was shocked and couldn't believe it, "How could it be Yanzhi? Oh, my grandson, someone come quickly, someone come and save my grandson!" The old lady was heartbroken, tears streaming down her face.

The second uncle's red eyes stared at the old lady steadily, his dark face full of sinister cruelty.

The old lady's heart trembled when she saw his gaze. She quickly lowered her eyelids and cried out in a shrill voice, "Woo woo, Yanzhi, why are you so unlucky? I hope nothing happens to you. If something happens to you, how will grandma live?"

Nanny Deng supported the old lady and said with a sorrowful look on her face, "Don't be sad, old lady. The eldest young master is a lucky man and will be rescued safely."

"Yes, yes, Yanzhi will be fine." The old lady wiped her tears and sobbed.

Suddenly, a burst of quick footsteps came quickly.

"Hurry, put out the fire, His Highness is inside!"

Everyone in the marquis' mansion watched as the well-trained guards carried buckets of water and poured them onto the burning wing. Some of the fearless ones even wet themselves completely and rushed towards the burning wing.

Lord Ye was shocked. Your Highness?

Which prince?

where?

In Ye Yanzhi's room?

Lord Ye looked at the old lady, and the old lady's face turned pale. There was someone else in Ye Yanzhi's room? A prince? Oh my God, what should I do!

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the people outside refused to go in. Just when everyone felt desperate, the burning door suddenly collapsed, and a guard in black clothes rushed out carrying a man on his back, and then another guard came out carrying another man on his back.

While everyone was stunned, the two men had already rushed out of the sea of ​​fire.

"Brother!" Ye Qingya was the first to react and rushed forward.

"Your Highness the Fourth Prince!" The guards also rushed over quickly and surrounded the two men.

Fourth Prince!

It’s His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!

There was deep fear in the eyes of the old lady and Lord Ye.

Why is the Fourth Prince in Ye Yanzhi's room!

"Cough cough..."

Ye Yanzhi's voice was hoarse and he looked disheveled. "My son is fine. Father and mother don't have to worry. Ya'er, big brother is fine."

Ye Qingyu also breathed a sigh of relief. She glanced vaguely at the two guards, who were not the secret guards she arranged. "I'm glad you're okay, big brother. We were all worried about you."

"I have to thank the Fourth Prince's guards for saving me. If it weren't for the Fourth Prince, I would have died in the fire." Ye Yanzhi's voice was hoarse. He was in a dishevel, but his elegance was not diminished at all.

He forced himself to stand up and saluted Shen Mingxiu, "Thank you for saving my life, Your Highness. Please forgive me, it's all Yanzhi's fault that you are in danger. It's all my fault."

Second Uncle quickly knelt down, his face filled with grief. "Your Highness, please be merciful. You were nearly killed in the fire because of Yan Zhi. Please forgive me. It was my failure to detect the danger in time that nearly put you in danger."

Shen Mingxiu escaped death, having nearly been burned to death. He was filled with rage, his face turning blue and purple. His handsome face was blackened and messy by the smoke, which obscured his expression, but everyone could feel his anger.

After hearing his second uncle and Ye Yanzhi's apology, he felt it difficult to get angry with them.

Shen Mingxiu suppressed his anger, calming himself before bending down and helping the two men to their feet. "This matter has nothing to do with you. If we hadn't been drugged, how could Yanzhi and I not have noticed the fire? This clearly shows someone trying to harm us!"

"Come here, check it out! I want to see who wants to kill me! How dare they!"

Shen Mingxiu didn't think that someone wanted to kill Ye Yanzhi, he was just implicated. Rather, his behavior tonight was too reckless. In order to get close to Ye Yanzhi, he went to Ye Yanzhi's room without bringing anyone, which gave some people who wanted to kill him an opportunity to take advantage of him.

When Old Lady Ye saw the enraged Fourth Prince, her legs went weak and she could not stand. If it were not for Nanny Deng, she would have collapsed to the ground.

It's over! If the Fourth Prince finds out that she was the one who started the fire and almost burned him to death, not only her, but also the Marquis' Mansion will be implicated.

The old lady tugged at Lord Ye's sleeve with trembling hands. Lord Ye saw the panic and pleading in his mother's eyes. He said with a stiff upper lip, "Your Highness, I'm so glad you're okay. Why were you in Yanzhi's room? I think Yanzhi accidentally knocked over the candle and that's why he got wet."

Shen Mingxiu turned around and looked at Lord Ye with a cold gaze, his expression was colder than ever before.

Ye Qingyu said softly, "Father, His Highness smelled the scent of drugs. Someone must have deliberately started the fire. The purpose remains to be investigated. Father, there is no need to worry."

Lord Ye's words were obviously intended to shift the blame onto Ye Yanzhi, convict him, and interrupt Shen Mingxiu's investigation.

There was sarcasm in Ye Qingyu's eyes. Her father was really naive.

Now Shen Mingxiu is convinced that this disaster is aimed at him and threatens his life. How could he possibly put the blame on Ye Yanzhi just because of a few words from Lord Ye? If he doesn't find out who wants to kill him, how can he sleep peacefully?

Lord Ye whispered, feeling timid but lacking confidence. "But, this happened in Ye Yanzhi's room, so it's naturally his fault."

Shen Mingxiu's eyes were filled with impatience, and his voice had long lost its usual kindness. "Marquis Ye should just wait on the side. How can I let him escape from this small Nanhua Temple?"

Lord Ye was forced to retreat repeatedly under the pressure of Shen Mingxiu's momentum and dared not say another word.

The fire had been put out by Shen Mingxiu's guards, and everyone went to the main hall to wait for the result. Shen Mingxiu and Ye Yanzhi went to clean up before coming back.

I won't be able to sleep tonight.

Shen Mingxiu's men acted very quickly and caught the man in less than an hour.

"Your Highness, the man has been apprehended. He was the one who blew smoke into Master Ye's chamber and set it on fire."

The man was brought up tied up. Shen Mingxiu had a handsome face with murderous intent in his eyes. "Tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

"My dear, I only do things for money. Please spare my life. Someone gave me ten taels of silver to knock out the people in the easternmost wing tonight and knock over the candles in the room to make it look like a fire. I really don't know the rest."

Shen Mingxiu slammed the table angrily, "How dare you talk nonsense? You're willing to do something like this that could cost someone's life for just ten taels of silver? Come on, beat him up!"

"No, no, my lord, I'm telling you, it's my lover who asked me to do this, and she said she would marry me after it's done."

"Come here, catch him for me!"

It would take half a day on horseback to return to Kyoto to arrest the man. No matter how angry Shen Mingxiu was, he still cared about his reputation. He asked the people in the Marquis' Mansion to go back to their rooms and then go to the main hall to interrogate the man after he was arrested.

After tossing and turning for half the night, it was already dawn when we left the main hall.
