Because she didn't go out, all the things happening outside were reported back by the servants.

According to Nanny Guan, Zhong Ran was summoned by the emperor, and it was also said that the bitch's dowry would be converted into hers.

This made Chen angry and annoyed, as she was planning to leave the dowry to her daughter Dai'er.

As a result, all her money was stolen by thieves. In this situation, the emperor actually ordered them to convert it into cash and give it to her?

That woman's dowry was worth over one million taels.

They have spent a lot over the years, but even so, they still have more than 600,000 taels left.

Such a huge dowry, let alone the current marquis's mansion, even if it had not been stolen before, she would not be willing to give it to her.

How can I avoid handing those things over?

The best way is to get rid of it once and for all and die to put an end to it all.

Anyway, it was rumored that the Marquis' Mansion had attracted some unclean things, so she would just burn it down.

When the time comes, we can just blame it on something unclean, since we can't trace it anyway.

However, until now, she still hadn't heard any movement outside, which made her feel inexplicably uneasy.

"What's going on over there? Still no movement?"

The people invited were from outside. After they finished their work, they left quietly. Her people killed them outside to ensure that the secret would not be leaked and there was no fear of implicating her.

Logically speaking, it has been so long, even if the contact person hasn't found them, there should be a commotion if there is a fire over there. Why is there no movement at all?

The nanny ran out and came back in quickly, shaking her head gently: "Madam, how about you take a rest first? If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."

How could Chen wait until tomorrow? As long as that evil star was still alive, she would be restless and sleep would be difficult.

As long as she died, she could easily get away even if someone pursued her.

A disaster star who is not favored by anyone will just die, who will hold him accountable?

As for the emperor, what is there for him to pursue since he is a dead man?

As for Prince Ning, there is no need to say more. It is estimated that her death has helped Prince Ning a lot.

If the marriage had not been arranged in her mother's womb, I'm afraid the emperor would not have allowed her to be engaged to the prince.

Who would want to marry such a disaster?

"Go and see for yourself what's going on. Be careful not to get discovered."

Nanny Guan nodded gently, turned around and walked out.

The house was very quiet. There was no sign of any major incident, and no sign of fire or smoke.

She was also surprised. Could it be that those people didn't take action at all?

At this time, a maid came in from outside. Seeing her, she asked curiously, "Why don't you take care of the lady? What are you doing outside?"

When Nanny Guan saw her coming back, she quickly asked, "Didn't you go to contact...? What happened? Didn't you do anything?"

"They did. They said they left quickly after seeing the fire starting. It should be out by now, right?"

Nanny Guan was so angry that she almost wanted to slap him: "Look at how quiet the house is, how can there be a fire?"

The nanny then noticed that the mansion was indeed very quiet.

She was startled and quickly turned around and walked outside.

Nanny Guan also followed, and they finally discovered the problem.

Dailan Garden is really quiet, there is not even a guard here.

They gently pushed open the yard door and walked in. Only when they got closer did they see clearly that there was indeed a lot of firewood placed around the room, and they could smell the smell of oil.

In fact, if you look closely, you can indeed see traces of fire.

I just don't know why, these fires didn't burn completely, and I didn't even feel any burning heat. It was like these firewoods were fake and didn't burn at all. No wonder there was no movement.

The two looked at each other in the darkness, and the nanny took out a tinder from her bosom, lit it and threw it into the pile of firewood.

Seeing the firewood burning quickly again, crazy smiles flashed in the eyes of the two men.

This time, I will definitely burn that disaster star to death.

"What are you doing? Help! Someone's killing someone."

A scream suddenly rang out. The smiles on the two maids' faces didn't even have time to disappear as they were frightened out of their wits by the scream.

The two looked at each other and rushed towards the figure standing at the door at the same time.

Let's just go all out. Since we've been discovered, we might as well kill her.

At this moment, they were dominated by fear and forgot that this master was not a good character.

Zhong Ran raised his foot and kicked the two men down one by one easily.

Moreover, she used her strength skillfully, making them just faint.

Because of her scream just now, the patrolling guards outside rushed in quickly and just saw the burning firewood.

"There's a fire, come quickly, there's a fire."

More and more people were alarmed and came over to put out the fire. Zhong Ran stood in the yard watching, but no one paid any attention to her.

It wasn't until Zhong Qingshan arrived with the housekeeper that she said, "Father, you've arrived just in time. I caught these two men trying to kill me."

"Father, you must handle this matter impartially and kill these daring and evil slaves to serve as a warning to others."

She did not kill the two men directly, but wanted to test Zhong Qingshan's attitude.

She always felt that the attitudes of both Zhong Qingshan and the emperor were very strange.

Zhong Qingshan's heart trembled, and he snatched the lantern from the servant's hand and moved closer.

A servant turned the two men over and quickly recognized that they were the lady's men.

"Miss, could there be some misunderstanding? How could they set the fire?"

The housekeeper quickly apologized with a smile: "Perhaps they just discovered the arsonist, so they tracked him down, and were discovered by the young lady?"

"They have good intentions. Even if you are the eldest daughter, you can't arbitrarily accuse the servants, right?"

Zhong Ran didn't expect that even after all this, these people still had excuses.

Do these people have to wait until she dies before...

No, when she dies, these people will just cheer happily.

No one would shed even a tear for her.

Since no one will take charge of her affairs, she will punish herself.

"Really? But I saw them light the fire myself, and she had the tinder in her hand."

She stepped on the nanny's hand holding the tinder, twisted it hard, and slowly crushed her palm.

"Ah!" The unconscious nanny woke up with a scream of pain, her whole body covered in cold sweat. Her screams were so broken that everyone's hearts trembled with fear.

Just by watching Zhong Ran's movements and listening to the nanny's broken voice, they felt the pain.

The housekeeper was shocked. "Miss, how could you hurt someone so casually? They might just come here and accidentally pick up the tinder. What does that mean?"

How could this calamity star be so unrefined? Couldn't she see that everyone disliked her and wanted her dead?

He said so, but she actually dared to take action directly. Is she really lawless?

Zhong Ran raised his foot and swept it towards him.
