Chapter 9 Fire

In Luoxue Garden, Miss Yujin has been chatting with Aunt Song for a long time.

When the Yujin girl returned, the moon was already hanging in the sky.

After the end of the night, a strong fire suddenly rose in the Prime Minister's Mansion. The flames soared into the sky, almost dyeing the night in the Prime Minister's Mansion into day.

When the people in the palace found out that it was on fire, the fire was already uncontrollable.

The sound of talking came from the courtyard of the Nuanwen Pavilion, and within a moment, the bamboo leaves walked into the inner room.

When Zhuye saw Miss Wen Jin standing in front of the window, he was extremely surprised. Although Zhu Ye had already guessed in his heart that Miss might know about the fire, Zhu Ye still replied respectfully, "Miss, the treasury where the dowry was placed is on fire." ”

Wen Jin was calm as usual, "Is the fire not under control?" ”

Zhu Ye said softly, "Yes, when the people found out, it was already too late. ”

Wen Jin laughed when he heard this, and said leisurely, "She really can't be on the stage?" I have this in mind. I'm worried that I can't find her fault? ”

Hearing this, Zhuye suddenly raised her head, she seemed to understand the words of the eldest lady.

Wen Jin indifferently ordered, "Bring me thick clothes, I'm going to take a look." ”

When the maid waited for Wen Jin to change into clothes, Wen Jin had to go out. Zhu Ye hurriedly stopped, "Miss, you haven't combed your hair yet?" ”

Wen Jin said indifferently, "No need. Only in this way can people see the anxiety in her heart.

When Wen Jin arrived, Aunt Song and Xiangye were already there, and now the fire has not been completely extinguished. It's just that what Wen Jin didn't expect was that the old lady actually came over.

Wen Jin hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Grandmother, it's so late, why do you want to make this trip?" ”

The old lady looked angry, "You stupid girl, your dowry is gone, and you still look at it like this." ”

Wen Jin said sincerely, "The dowry is something outside the body, and it's just gone if it's gone." But there is only one grandmother, if the grandmother is sick from the cold, what should the granddaughter do! ”

Wen Jin's heart is as consistent as the performance on her face, and they are all sincere looks.

The old lady also patted Wen Jin's little hand with a moved face, "Good boy, grandmother will make decisions for you." ”

The "master" in the old lady's mouth naturally means something.

And Su Jinyu also said with concern, "Mother, it's cold at night, you go back first!" ”

The old lady didn't follow, and said angrily, "I'm not leaving, I want to see if Sister Wen'er's dowry can be recovered." ”

When Su Jinyu heard this, she had to rely on the old lady.

After a while, Aunt Li and Yujin Yunjin also rushed over, after all, even the old lady came, if they didn't come, it wouldn't be very likely.

Wen Jin casually looked at the three people who had just arrived, only to see that Aunt Li and Yun Jin were just dressed up in a hurry, while Yu Jin was dressed up very properly, as if he had known about tonight's events for a long time.

Wen Jin's heart suddenly burst into action, and he looked at Aunt Song. Tonight, Xiangye stayed at Aunt Song's place, and Aunt Song was also dressed up in a hurry.

It's just that what Wen Jin thought in his heart was that Aunt Song already had someone to prove her innocence, and that was Xiangye.

In a short time, the fire was extinguished, but the heat remained in the ashes, and no one looked at the dowry for a while.

Wen Jin said to everyone, "Most of the dowries are gold and silver items, although this fire is big, it may not burn its roots. When the residual temperature is exhausted, let people rummage through it. ”

When Aunt Song heard this, she couldn't help but show a look of good show. Thankfully, she kept an eye on it, and left two chests of gold and silver in it.

Soon, the people of the palace found a lot of gold and silver jewelry from the ashes. Together, there are as many as two boxes.

When Wen Jin saw this, he already knew it. It's just that he didn't rush to speak.

It was Aunt Song who was the first to speak, "This dowry is only these left, and the rest must have been burned to ashes." ”

If Aunt Song doesn't speak, no one will look at her yet? As soon as she opened her mouth this time, everyone's eyes looked at her.

The eyes of the old lady and Xiangye also had an inquiring look in them. As for Wen Jin, it was an inexplicable look.

Aunt Song barely calmed down, comforting in her heart, "Anyway, they can't find evidence, so why should they be afraid?" ”

Wen Jin retorted at this time, "Auntie's words are different. Wen Jin just checked the dowry today, and there were sixteen boxes of gold and silver in the dowry, since the gold and silver in the ashes were intact, the other gold and silver things would naturally not be burned to ashes. ”

"But now there are only two chests of gold and silver found, so where have the others gone?"

Wen Jin was aggressive as soon as he spoke. The last sentence she said hit Aunt Song's heart and made her heart pound.

Aunt Song didn't have the words to deal with it for a while. It was Yujin who relieved Aunt Song and said, "What does the eldest sister mean by this?" Could it be that the dowry is gone, and the aunt is to blame? ”

Wen Jin smiled lightly, "When did I blame my aunt?" It's just that the fire in this treasury is indeed strange, and the dowry is unreasonable. I'm just talking about things, Sister Yujin doesn't need to be so sensitive. ”

As soon as Wen Jin's words came out, others were just fine, but they saw Yun Jin's face pale and frightened, and said worriedly, "Isn't it the Prime Minister's Mansion that has entered the thief?" The thieves set fire to the treasury in order to cover up? ”

Aunt Song's face changed, and she opened her mouth to reprimand, "The Prime Minister's Mansion is heavily guarded, and thieves outside can't enter." ”

As soon as Aunt Song said this, her face changed instantly, and she was so anxious just now that she said the wrong thing. Thieves outside can't get in, but what if it's a house thief? It's clear that you're shooting yourself in the foot.

Aunt Li was shallow-minded, and after hearing Aunt Song say this, she said quickly, "It's true that thieves outside can't get in, but what if it's a house thief?" ”

The old lady was already furious at this time, "Enough! What thieves are not thieves. I think this dowry is just being remembered. The old body will not watch his granddaughter being wronged, even if he works hard, he will definitely find out about this matter. ”

Wen Jin hurriedly comforted, "Grandmother, don't be angry, take care of your body!" ”

The old lady was already panting for breath at this time. Su Jinyu is a filial person, so she hurriedly advised, "Mother don't be angry, my son will definitely find out about this matter." ”

The old lady was still angry, took Wen Jin's hand and said, "Sister Wen, you go back to Chunrong Hall with your grandmother, you are weak and can't stand the cold, so leave it to your father to deal with here!" ”

Wen Jin's face was moved, and he called softly, "Grandmother." ”

The old lady held Wen Jin's hand tightly, "Sister Wen, don't worry, grandmother and father will make decisions for you." ”

Wen Jin looked guilty, "Thank you, grandmother." ”

He turned to Xiang Ye again and said, "Thank you, father." ”

Su Jinyu nodded, "Wen'er, you go to the old lady first and wait, and your father will give you an explanation." ”

After saying this, Su Jinyu added, "Yujin, Yunjin, you also follow the old lady to Chunrong Hall!" ”

"Yes." Yu Jin and Yun Jin saluted together and said.
