Emperor Wenwu seemed to recall it, "Assassination? But you were passing through Jiangnan on your way back to Beijing that year?"

Fu Yan did not tell his family about the assassination, but he told the emperor.

Emperor Wenwu was impressed by this incident. "So that girl was actually Jiang Wan?"

Fu Yan pursed his lips and nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty, when I met her, she was already covered in wounds. I'm afraid she had been persecuted by them a long time ago."

Emperor Wenwu waved his sleeves in anger, pointing at Jiang Hong: "Do you have anything else to say? Are you going to accuse Fu Qing of deliberately framing you, a person who poses no danger to him at all?"

Jiang Hong just felt dizzy and fell down.

Although Xia Quyan cooperated with Jiang Wan, she did not show up in this matter. She just lent the old nanny who was placed beside the second wife to Jiang Wan.

Standing here, Jiang Ying, the Second Madam, Jiang Hong, Lin Qiu and other family members, have all hurt Jiang Wan.

It is naturally impossible to let them go.

Emperor Wenwu was thinking of issuing an order to exile them to the border, to suspend the flogging death penalty, or something else.

Then I heard another person running towards me in a hurry.

"His Majesty!"

Emperor Wenwu frowned, "Why are you so flustered?"

Fu Yan also looked at that person. After leaving Jiang Wan, the panic and restlessness in his heart became even more restless.

My gut feeling is that this is not going to be good news.

"The Wuling Marquis' Mansion...is on fire again."

Jiang Hong, who was kneeling on the ground, had fainted. Jiang Ying and the Second Madam looked at each other, then prostrated themselves on the ground, "Your Majesty, this is not something I would do. I don't know what it is..."

Emperor Wenwu ordered them to be taken away and detained.

It was impossible that they were the ones who set the fire later, after all, all the people on their side had been captured by me.

And there was no need for them to start the fire.

Emperor Wenwu raised his hand and said, "Send someone to check. Fortunately, there is no one there."

As soon as Emperor Wenwu finished his words, a figure appeared among the motionless crowd and ran out.

"Master Fu..." The crowd that was waved away by Fu Yan looked at Fu Yan's back as he ran out regardless of everything, all confused.

"Why is Lord Fu so anxious? It's not like his Zhenguo Mansion is on fire."

Emperor Wenwu also seemed to have realized that the person who could make Fu Yan disregard the rules like this must be...

His eyebrows sank and he looked at Su Changsheng beside him, "Where's Jiang Wan?"

"This... we separated after we asked her questions. She was frightened, and Miss Mu said she wanted to take her home to recuperate."

"She... went back."

A female voice sounded, and everyone looked over and saw that it was Mu Ningzhi who was speaking.

Su Changsheng and Emperor Wenwu looked at Mu Ningzhi.

Mu Ningzhi's eyes were already filled with tears. "She said she wanted to go back and see the place where her parents were, and she didn't want me to follow her. I said to give her some time, and then I would go to the Marquis' Mansion to pick her up and bring her back to my house..."

Emperor Wenwu didn't wait for Mu Ningzhi to finish her words and immediately ordered the people around him to rush to the Marquis' Mansion.

"No wonder that kid ran so fast..." Emperor Wenwu no longer had the heart to parade through the streets.

But this was something that had to be done every year. If he didn't do it, he would be breaking the rules of the late emperor. So he had no choice but to worry about Jiang Wan while letting his team move forward.

He had wasted long enough.

Except Jiang Hong, all other ministers had to follow the emperor's team.

And there was one special person, Fu Yan, who had just escaped. Now the ministers following behind were still curious about what happened to the fire in the Marquis' Mansion, but no one dared to disregard the rules and His Majesty and leave directly like Fu Yan did.

The direction of the parade was exactly opposite to the direction of Wulinghou Mansion.

Everyone followed the emperor towards Nian Bridge, except Fu Yan who ran back alone.

It was almost impossible to move forward through the crowds.

Fu Yan's mind was blank now, and he just wanted to hurry up.

But the crowded crowd was going in the opposite direction to him, so it was not easy for him to move forward even if he pushed the people around him hard.

Fu Yan glanced around him and opened his purse.

Divide the silver into two parts and throw them to the left and right.

Most of the people crowded on the streets are common people, and they may not be able to earn this much even if they earn in a whole year.

They immediately dispersed to both sides.

There was finally an easy path in front of Fu Yan.

As he ran forward, he thought to himself that he should not have left.

Even if Jiang Wan's words were harsh and he kept trying to drive him away, he shouldn't have left.

'What's it to you?'

'I'll be fine, just checking back.'

Fu Yan clenched his hands, Jiang Wan, Jiang Wan... nothing must happen to you, you can't be in any trouble.

There was still smoke rising from the sky above Wu Linghou Mansion.

Fu Yan took a quick glance and pushed the door open and rushed inside.

The yard was empty and Fu Yan didn't look at anything else. He didn't know where Jiang Wan was, so he could only run towards where the smoke was coming from.

Fortunately... God was helping him. He didn't get lost in such a big yard and found Jiang Wan's yard in one go.

Zhuohuayuan.

The people sent by the emperor have not arrived yet, and the fire is huge.

Fortunately, it hasn't burned out yet, so Fu Yan can still go in.

"Jiang Wan!"

Fu Yan was even more anxious at this moment than the last time. At least he saw Jiang Wan that time, at least the person was in front of him.

But now he couldn't see anyone, and he didn't know how Jiang Wan was doing, whether he was injured, or whether he was unable to move due to the fire.

She must be scared too...

Fu Yan was about to lose his mind just thinking about it. He looked at what was in front of him.

The door beam has collapsed.

The fire was so big that the whole place was filled with ashes, and Fu Yan couldn't see what was inside.

"Jiang Wan! Jiang Wan!" Fu Yan shouted as he took off his coat and soaked it in the water tank in the yard to wet it completely. He then took it out and wet his clothes and hair with it, then rushed in wearing the wet clothes.

"Jiang Wan? Where are you?"

Fu Yan's clothes covered his head. He looked around, but the smoke was too thick and he couldn't see clearly. He could only look for it one place at a time by himself. Looking at the buildings around him, he entered Jiang Wan's inner room.

The fire spread to his waist, and he felt like he was in a sea of ​​fire.

Will Jiang Wan already...

Fu Yan shook his head, forcing himself not to think about this terrible possibility.

"Jiang Wan? Where are you?" Fu Yan walked past a screen that had fallen to the ground due to fire.

Ashes were also floating in the air, some of them stuck to Fu Yan's body and some stuck to his face.

The smoke was thick, his face was covered with dust, his eyes were bloodshot, and he tried his best to keep them open, trying to see the figure.

Unfortunately no......

Fu Yan stepped out and wanted to go to the next room to take a look.

With a loud bang, a wooden beam fell down in front of him, blocking Fu Yan's way forward.
