The fire was finally extinguished at nearly 3 o’clock in the morning. After the fire broke out, the streets in the neighborhood were blocked by the workers on patrol from the Capital Bureau. And because the capital city was heavily guarded recently, there were no onlookers except the people who came to put out the fire from the neighborhood.

More than ten guards from the Capital Bureau came to put out the fire. After the fire was put out, the guards checked immediately if there was anybody who died in the fire.

Compared with the guards in the local governments, the ones from the Capital Bureau had been well trained. And during the curfew period, such a big fire should be dealt with cautiously.

There was smog or fire in the broken walls and tiles, although the big fire was extinguished.

After the fire was extinct, Steward Qiu quickly checked the workers in the shop with Manager Xu. The pawnshop was not small, and there were eleven w

    Many people complained and sighed in sorrow, but Gu Qinghan calmed down and declared casually, “All of you, don’t worry. Since the fire started in the pawnshop, our family would compensate for your losses.”All people heard that and looked happy immediately.“You go back to check how much you have lost. After confirming, we will pay you every penny.” Gu Qinghan looked tired. “This big fire started all of a sudden and got you implicated. I am sorry.”Somebody laughed. “My Lady, since you said that, it will be easier to handle it. In fact, I didn’t lose much, at most three or four thousand taels of silver.” He looked back at the ruins and sighed. “A shop was destroyed by fire. It’s not easy to check.”“Right, Mr. Lu is reasonable. The account book was burnt, and it’s difficult to check the stock.” Another person echoed him immediately. “But everybody has an account book in the brain. It’s not easy to check it clearly, but each of us

    After Dou Lianzhong said that, not only Gu Qinghan but Yang Ning also changed the expression slightly.“Young Master Dou, are you kidding?” Gu Qinghan kept calm. “Lord Dou is the minister of the Ministry of Revenue. As far as I know, your family is wealthy and won’t pawn anything. And it is clear on the pawn tickets that the owner is named Zhao Xin. What does it have to do with you?”Dou Lianzhong laughed. “To be frank, Zhao Xin is here.” He looked back and called, “Zhao, please come over.”Somebody immediately stepped out of the people who followed Dou Lianzhong and came up. He was dressed in ordinary clothes and looked ordinary. It was hard to find him in the crowd.“Manager Xu, do you remember me?” Zhao Xin stepped forward and saluted Manager Xu. “Last time you helped me, and I always keep it in mind.” He spoke with an accent outside the capital city and seemed to come from another city.Manager Xu was an old hand i

    The family of the Marquis of Honor was in trouble continuously. Gu Qinghan managed the big mansion and was mentally and physically exhausted though she still kept calm in front of others. She was extremely tired tonight. After they went back to the mansion, Yang Ning comforted her and she finally went to have a rest.Yang Ning was clear that if Qi Jing were alive, these successive things must not have happened, but after Qi Jing passed away, many people with evil intentions tried to add insult to injury.Although Dou Lianzhong showed up and Yang Ning found that he must have something to do with them, he didn’t think that the Dou Family was the manipulator behind the scenes.The minister of the Ministry of Revenue was a high official of the empire, but only the Dou Family didn’t have the strength to cope with the family of the Marquis of Honor.The family of the Marquis of Honor seemed to be declining, but the marquises of two gener

    Since Yang Ning said the colored glaze horse was a family heirloom, Dou Lianzhong held it with both hands cautiously even though he was doubtful. At the beginning, Dou Lianzhong was serious but soon showed disdain. He glimpsed at Yang Ning. “Is this a family heirloom of the Marquis of Honor?”“Of course.” Yang Ning even showed a proud expression on his face. “Dou, have you found something magic?”“I can’t see anything magic. I think you are crazy.” Dou Lianzhong didn’t show mercy. “Except that the posture is not bad, the colored glaze is roughly made. I said that it is worth at most fifty taels of silver, but I change my mind. Even if you sell it at the price of five taels of silver, nobody would buy it.”Yang Ning sighed. “Can you buy such a treasure at the price of five taels of silver? It seems that you still think it’s a colored glaze horse.” He paused for a while and then continued, “This horse is special because it can shine at midnight,

    Yang Ning just stared at Dou Lianzhong coldly, making the latter uncomfortable. Dou Lianzhong had to say, “Since I damaged it, I can pay you some money, but…” He tried hard to find proper words and asked cautiously, “But do you know how much silver this colored glaze horse is worth, Your Excellency?”“Silver?” Yang Ning sneered. “Master Dou, do you think our family needs your silver?”Dou Lianzhong’s face fell, and he responded impassively, “Your Excellency, since you said that, I have nothing to say. Just tell me what you want. Stop being so indecisive.” He sneered. “To be frank, you just brag and try to make a colored glaze horse your family heirloom. Who knows if it’s true?”“Master Dou, do you want to repudiate a debt?” Yang Ning also sneered. “It’s a pity that your trick doesn’t work in my mansion.”Dou Lianzhong replied, “In fact, we don’t need to argue. I am a reasonable man. Since you said that the colored glaze horse is ma

    Yang Ning wasn’t anxious to speak, while Dou Lianzhong laughed. “My Lord, you really have sharp eyes. You can distinguish right from wrong at a glance.” Then he stared at Yang Ning with a sneer. “What else would you say?”Yang Ning asked calmly, “What do you want me to say? Did Lord Mo make the final judgment?”“Didn’t you hear? Lord Mo said it’s made of low-quality glaze.” Dou Lianzhong swelled out his chest. “That’s it. I don’t know what judgment you want.”“Lord Mo just said it is not valuable judging from the material.” Yang Ning was neither conceited nor rash. “But he didn’t say that this colored glaze horse is not a treasure. Since you know a lot about antiques and ancient paintings, you should know that some paper and ink are ordinary, but the paintings are invaluable. The real treasure is not up to its material.”Dou Lianzhong still wanted to argue, but Governor Mo had a smile in his eyes, saying, “Qi Ning is right. Only ju

    Dou Lianzhong said embarrassedly, “My Lord, since you asked me to sign a loan agreement, I have no objection.”“Wait!” Governor Mo raised his hand. “It’s not that I asked you to sign a loan agreement. If you owe money to others, you have to pay. Since you have damaged the family heirloom of the Marquis of Honor, you should pay him theoretically. It’s not up to me but yourself whether you sign a loan agreement or not. If you sign an agreement, the case will be closed, and then you just need to discuss the compensation with the family of the Marquis of Honor. If you don’t want to sign an agreement, it doesn’t matter, and I can give today’s file to the Ministry of Penalty and ask them to handle this case.”“No. I am going to write a loan agreement,” Dou Lianzhong responded in a hurry.He knew that the six ministries of the country were independent. The Ministry of Penalty and Ministry of Revenue minded their own business. They might cooperate with

    Several chiefs looked at each other, and one said loudly, "Dandu Bone, you have already killed the Great Miao King, do you want to make another mistake? If you hurt a single hair of Rangchadulu's head, we will definitely break your body into pieces."Dandu Bone said sternly,"Just based on Langchadulu's words, you put the blame on my Dandu Bone's head? You are all the chiefs of the villages, do you believe Langchadulu's words so easily?"Langchadulu exclaimed, "The evidence is overwhelming, could it be that I am falsely accusing you? Dandu Bone, you are so guilty that you should commit suicide in public to give everyone an explanation." Feeling the knife on the neck slightly tightened, the body could not help but tense up, and there was a trace of fear in his heart."I am Yifu of Black Rock Cave, the murder of the Great Miao King was all a trap set by Langchadulu." Seeing the blackness of the surrounding people and the flashes of swords, Yifu shouted, "It was Langch

    The three of them were naturally unable to sleep this night, and by the next day, no one could be seen coming over for the entire day.The Prisoner Wolf Wall is quite a distance from the fortress, but despite this, the three of them heard the sound of weeping coming from the fortress, and in their hearts, they all knew that the news of the murder of the Great Miao King had spread throughout the fortress.The weeping continued for a whole day, and Dandu Bone could hardly help himself, and cried twice when he thought of the murdered King of the Great Hmong.This day not only no one to come over to the arraignment, and even the food delivery is not seen to come over, until after dark, only to see Chegu with another guard carrying a food basket to come over.Chegu first sent the meal between the gaps in the iron bars within Dandu Bone's stone prison, then Yifu, and finally Qi Ning's stone prison.Seeing that the meal was also still quite hearty, Qi Ning lau

    At Qi Ning's words, Yi Fu suddenly came to a realization, her heart was appalled, and she said, "Langchadulu wanted to send out troops, but the Great Miao King and Dandu Bone didn't agree and insisted on negotiating, so Langchadulu set up a trap, killed the Great Miao King, and framed us and Dandu Bone for the crime.""That's my guess." Qi Ning sighed, "If my guess is correct, then we shouldn't survive a day. Now that Dandu Bone is imprisoned here and the Great Miao King has been killed, Langchadulu has become the number one person in Upper Water Cave, and it's only right that he can call the shots." With a hefty smile, he said, "The three of us are the ones he is most uneasy about right now, as long as we are dead, and the Great Hmong King is killed there will be someone to take the blame for him, and he will have nothing to worry about anymore."Dandu Bone clenched his fist and snapped, "If the Great Miao King was really killed by him, I ...

    The three of them were each put within a stone cave, with Yifu in the center and Qi Ning and Dandu Bone to the left and right.As soon as Qi Ning entered inside, he knew that it was extremely difficult to get out, the cave was rocky on three sides, and only one side of the iron bars could be accessed.Prisoner wolf wall is obviously the upper water hole carefully designed place, the iron bars are made of fine iron, and on the iron lock, if the cold blade in hand, Qi Ning still think some opportunity to break out of the door, and now want to unarmed out of the cage, that is whimsical.In addition, there are also left three strong Miao people here to guard, that wooden house is the guard room, the front door is opposite to the stone wall prison, people in the inside, can notice every move within the stone prison.Yi Fu sat within the stone prison, anxious, she did not care about her own safety, but when she thought that the Great Miao King had met an untimely e

    Dandu Bone's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "What did you say?""Dandu Bone, I heard that you have known these two for a long time?" Rangchadulu gripped the cold blade in his hand, "When you were at the bottom of the mountain, I heard that you were prepared to bring them up the mountain without the Great Miao King's orders?"Dandu Bone's face changed at first, and he snapped, "Rangchadulu, what do you mean by that?"Langchadulu seemed to still have some scruples about Dandu Bone, took two steps back and said loudly, "What do I mean, don't you understand? What exactly is the origin of these two people, you have to give us an explanation."At this time there was a crowd of more than ten people in the room, and all of them looked at Dandu Bone when they heard Rangchadulu say this.Dandu Bone clenched his fist and said, "That's right, I met them on my way back and .... they have saved my life.""It's good that you admit it."

    Dandu Bone said in a deep voice, "Rangchadulu, for so many years, we Miao people have been living in harmony with the Han people, do you know what the consequences would be if we were to call in the troops from all the caves?"Langchadulu asked rhetorically, "And do you know what will happen if we are indifferent and turn a blind eye to the situation in the Black Rock Cave?" He took a step forward and said, "Our mission at Upper Water Cave is to stand up for the Miao people when they are in danger. Now that we all know that the Black Rock Cave is suffering from injustice, yet we sit back and do nothing, won't the Miao Family's 72 caves be chilled?""Not bad, Great Miao King, Black Rock Cave Eve has already told us the truth of the matter, this is obviously a trap set by the government for Black Rock Cave, they are so insidious, do we have to wait until Black Rock Cave has been killed before we react?"
