The female general was reborn in the enemy's house? They all die!
Chapter 74 Strange
"What's wrong?!"
Rong Jin now believed that he had heard wrongly, and quickly said to Qiu Tao: "Who is outside? Let him in!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Qiutou immediately ran to open the door.
But as soon as the door opened a crack, the servant outside rushed in in a hurry.
He knelt down in front of Rong Jin with a plop, looking extremely panicked.
"Miss, it's the princess's mansion!" the servant said breathlessly, "There was a fire in the princess's mansion, and the fire burned everything in the mansion!"
“They’re all burned?!”
Rong Jin suddenly jumped up from the bed, and the basin of water in front of her was knocked over by her.
"How is this possible? The princess's dowry is huge, how could it all be burned?"
She pointed at the boy's nose and shouted excitedly: "Do you know the consequences of deceiving me?"
"It's absolutely true, Second Miss!" the servant said with a sad face, "How dare I lie to you about such a serious matter. The fire spread from the main hall in the front yard to the back yard. Maybe it was because of the dry weather that the candles were knocked over."
"If it was just a candle that was knocked over, how could the fire be so fierce?"
Rong Jin gradually came to her senses from her shock: "All of you, follow me and take a look!"
"It's Miss Second!"
At this moment, there is less than an hour left until Prince Jing'an's palace picks up the bride.
Rong Jin casually put on a dress and got into the carriage in a hurry.
After a while, the carriage arrived at the gate of the princess's mansion.
Before the carriage stopped, Rong Jin impatiently lifted the curtain and looked towards the princess's palace.
But the next second, she was shocked by the scene before her.
Most of the houses that were originally lined up in the princess's mansion have now been burned down.
The front yard, the source of the fire, was burned to the ground.
Rong Jin got off the carriage in a daze, and walked into the mansion like a puppet.
Qiu Tao, who was following behind Rong Jin, was also shocked by what she saw.
She thought that Prince Jing'an would come to pick up the bride soon, and now the dowry was gone, what should she do!
"Is this...the princess's residence?"
Rong Jing couldn't accept it for a moment. He walked inside blankly, talking to himself.
At this moment, there were still a few small flames burning in the backyard.
There were still a few servants left in the yard, and they were working tirelessly with buckets of water to pour water on the fires.
At this time, one of the servants turned around and saw Rong Jin coming over.
The servant thought Rong Jin would come over and beat and scold him.
But Rong Jin ignored him and continued to walk deeper into the yard in a daze.
"Second miss?"
"Second Miss, are you okay?"
The servant felt something was wrong when he saw Rong Jin was unusually calm, so he hurriedly chased after him and asked with concern.
Qiutou immediately turned around and winked at him.
The boy quickly shut his mouth when he saw this.
But just as he was picking up the bucket and preparing to put out the fire again, he suddenly heard a heart-wrenching cry from behind him.
Hearing the sound, the servant quickly turned around to look.
But Rong Jin was seen sitting on the burnt land, pounding the ground and crying loudly.
Seeing that Rong Jin was crying so hard that he almost passed out, Qiu Tao quickly patted Rong Jin's back.
"Second Miss, please take a breath!"
"Second Miss, it's still early, we can still find a way!"
Qiu Tao's comfort was still effective.
Rong Jin's earth-shaking cries gradually subsided.
"Qiu Tao, is there really any other solution?"
Rong Jin's eyes were swollen from crying. She wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said in despair, "Can the Marquis' Mansion come up with a dowry as rich as this Princess' Mansion..."
"Don't worry, Second Miss." Qiu Tao helped Rong Jin up from the ground, "This dowry concerns the reputation of the Marquis's Mansion. The Marquis and his wife will definitely find a way!"
Rong Jin immediately stopped crying when he heard this, and nodded heavily, "Yes, yes, yes, and also my father and mother."
As she said that, she hurriedly turned around and ran towards the gate: "Qiu Tao, let's go back to the Marquis' Mansion now. Father and mother will definitely find a way!"
Qiu Tao didn't expect Rong Jin to come to his senses so easily. She hurriedly followed Rong Jin back to the carriage.
"Go home!"
At Rong Jin's command, the carriage galloped towards the rising sun and returned to the Marquis' Mansion in a blink of an eye.
"Father and mother!"
"Hurry up and save Jin'er!"
As soon as the carriage stopped, Rong Jin ran into the Dragon and Crane Hall of the Marquis' Mansion while shouting loudly.
At this moment, Rong Dexin and Lu were actually having breakfast in the front hall.
It’s just that today is the wedding day of the two families, so the two of them had their meal earlier than usual.
Rong Jin knelt down with a plop in front of the two people's gazes.
"Father and mother, Jin'er's dowry is gone!"
Rong Jin said with tears in her eyes: "Help Jin Er think of a solution quickly, otherwise Jin Er will not get married today!"
"This kid, today is a big day, why are you saying such depressing things? Get up!"
While scolding Rong Jin, Mrs. Lu helped him up and said, "Tell me slowly, what dowry is missing?"
"Mother, there's a fire in the princess's mansion!"
"What did you say?"
Lu and Rong Dexin said in surprise at the same time.
"How could a fire break out in the princess's mansion out of the blue, and at this critical moment!" Mrs. Lu asked immediately.
"It's true. My daughter just checked and found that all the dowry was burned!"
"Burned?!"
Rong Dexin was listening to the conversation between the two. When he heard that the dowry was burned, he stood up from his chair.
"I went to check yesterday morning and everything was fine in the princess's mansion. How could such a thing happen today?"
Rong Dexin's heart trembled violently, thinking that no one had asked about the dowry of this princess for many years.
Now, when they were about to be moved out of the princess's mansion, they were all burned down.
Could it be Rong Sheng who did it?
Rong Dexin thought of this and stroked his beard thoughtfully.
Originally, the dowry of the princess's mansion was indeed left to Rong Sheng, but she later became terminally ill.
But she needed the help of the Lu family at that time, so she turned a blind eye and allowed Lu to control the dowry.
Now that Rong Sheng has just recovered from a serious illness, she has never asked for the dowry back. I thought it was because she had been bedridden for a long time and forgot about this.
But the marriage between the two families was imminent, and something happened to the dowry at this time.
If it's all coincidence -
Rong Dexin frowned. That couldn't be such a coincidence, right?
And Lu, who was standing nearby, seemed to have sensed that something was amiss.
She turned around and looked at Rong Dexin and said in a deep voice: "My Lord, don't you think this fire is too timely?"
"Well, it's such a coincidence."
Rong Dexin nodded vaguely.
Then he shouted to the outside of the door: "Someone come!"
"My Lord, I am here!"
"Go to Mingyue Pavilion and call Princess Yong'an to me, quickly!"
"It's the Marquis!"
