nChapter 102 – Niyunfang is on Fire

n

"Madam went out to buy silk today, and when she returned, a child suddenly rushed to the front of the carriage and threw a piece of a firecracker at the horse .

"

n

"Child?

"

n

"Yes, this servant went up to ask . He was just the children of an ordinary farmer . The parents of the children rushed forward and kowtowed to admit their wrongs, so Madam didn't care anymore .

"

nMu Yunyao's forehead twitched . Not to mention why this child had suddenly rushed in front of the carriage, just the fact that he had exploded the firecracker was worthy of suspicion . Even though Jiangnan was rich, ordinary people would not play firecrackers for their children without a new year .

nSeeing that she was still worried, Su Qing comforted her,

"Mother just accidentally twisted her leg a little . It's fine .

"

nMu Yunyao quickly squatted down and examined Su Qing's ankles . It was just that they were slightly swollen and red . She couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief .

"Mother, trying your best not to go out these past two days . I'm afraid this matter isn't as simple as it sounds .

"

n

"Alright .

"

nSince Liu Liang wasn't around and she has not fully trust in Si Qin and the rest, Mu Yunyao kept this matter in her heart, for the time being . She is repeatedly warning everyone in Ni Yunfang to be extra careful .

nShe suddenly woke up at night and smelled a burnt smell . As she put on her clothes, she called for Jin Lan and the others . When she arrived downstairs, she could already see the light of the fire .

nJin Lan and the others had already warned by Mu Yunyao, so they could still hold on . Then, they took out a water basin and quickly extinguished the flames . The fire was not great, just lit the curtain and made the walls black .

nMu Yunyao's brows tightly furrowed, and her heart filled with cold intent . These two days, she had been extra careful and reminded Jin Lan and others to place some flammable fabrics and threads in their room . She carefully put them away as she was afraid that someone would not be able to control herself and set Ni Yunfang on fire .

nJin Lan and the others didn't dare to make a sound . It was Su Qing who limped down the stairs, interrupting Mu Yunyao's contemplation .

"Mother, there's nothing wrong with this small matter . Why have you come downstairs?

"

nSu Qing looked at the burned curtain and the water stains on the ground, and she couldn't help but cover her chest .

"Yao'er, those people's methods are too vicious .

"

n

"Mother, don't worry . In two days, I will have them return one by one!

" Mu Yunyao's voice was clear and cold . Her black eyes were unfathomable as if all the light in her surroundings had absorbed into it .

nHearing Mu Yunyao's words, Su Qing couldn't help but worry,

"Yao`er, don't be too impulsive . Fortunately, the fire didn't start .

"

n

"Don't worry, Mother . I know what I'm doing .

"

nWhen Lady Jin heard about what had happened at the Ni Yunfang, she specifically made a trip here .

"Yunyao, is there anything major?

"

nMu Yunyao hurriedly came over to greet her .

"Greetings to Madam . I've made you worried . Since I found the fire in time, it's only burnt a little curtain and tidied it up a little .

"

nLady Jin frowned .

"Where's your mother? Is her injury serious?

"

n

"It's just a twist of the foot, so it's fine .

" As Mu Yunyao spoke, she led Lady Jin to sit down and let Jin Lan prepare some fruit tea .

"Madam is pregnant, let's drink some fruit tea .

"

n

n

nLady Jin could not help but loosen her expression .

"Seeing that you can hold it in so steadily, I am relieved . In other words, these two days will be better .

"

nMu Yunyao nodded:

"I only think of Madam's words, so I am this calm .

" She was not someone who suffered a loss . Those people had injured Su Qing, so she naturally had to pay them back . However, she could not say these words to Lady Jin .

n

"I will send more people to guard the area for the next two days . You also need to be more vigilant .

" The people he sent did not notice that anyone suspicious was approaching Ni Yunfang, and they could not find evidence so that everything was in vain .

n

"Thank you, Madam .

"

nAfter sending away Lady Jin, Mu Yunyao leaned on the chair and thought about it . After thinking for a while, she suddenly got up and went back upstairs and picked up the pen and paper to write to Yue Wang .

nThere is a 30% share of Yue Wang in Ni Yunfang . Nowadays, there are frequent incidents in Ni Yunfang, and they almost being burned by people .

nNaturally, they had to tell the Yue Wang about this . Other than that, they should also send some silver taels over . When Yue Wang saw gold and silver, he will feel the need to pay more attention to them .

nThe west of Guangdong Province was very cold and bitter . Mu Yunyao heard that Yue Wang didn't even have enough military pay . This time, she only sends some more silver taels over and then slowly find some to make up for it .

nSteward Qin was slightly surprised to see Mu Yunyao . At this moment, her face filled with fatigue, and there was even a hint of paleness on it,

"Steward Qin, I have a letter and some things that I want to give to Fourth Master . Are you sure it's convenient?

"

n

"Of course, it's convenient . Miss, what's the matter?

"

nMu Yunyao smiled bitterly .

"There is nothing wrong with it . It's just that a lot of things have happened in Ni Yunfang recently . Last night, someone tried to set a fire in Ni Yunfang . Fortunately, they found it in time and didn't cause much damage .

"

"There's such a thing?

" Steward Qin's eyes turned cold . Regardless of whether Mu Yunyao and the Prince could succeed or not in the future, right now, she is helping to prepare a teahouse so that the Prince can openly plant spies in Jiangnan . He couldn't just watch her get bullied like this,

"Miss Mu, don't worry . I will make people as soon as possible to search and find out what kind of information you have, and you'll notify the young lady immediately .

"

nMu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief,

"Many thanks, Steward Qin .

"

nThe next two days were calm and peaceful, causing Su Qing's heart to feel calm down . On the third day, Mu Yunyao was summoned by Lady Jin into the Cao family manor early in the morning .

"Yunyao, we have obtained the exact information . Today, the Emperor will bestow upon us the reward, so Governor Zhang has already gone to meet with the officials . We will wait while my husband goes to the Governor's Office . You will clean up again so as not to be rude .

"

nMu Yunyao knew that Lady Jin was kind-hearted . She tidied up her makeup several times in the mirror when a red tinge appeared on her face, but there wasn't much of a ripple in her heart .

nShe had worked hard for this day for a long time, and now that she got what she wanted, she only felt that it was natural .

nOutside the city, a group of a hundred people escorted two carts of goods quickly into the city .

nThe officials had been guarding the city gates for a long time . The streets were already locked down, and there was no movement of the civilians .

nGovernor Zhang was standing at the head of the officials, and he hurriedly stepped forward when he saw the group stop .

"Lord Su, you've worked hard all the way .

"

"Greetings, Lord Zhang . This humble one owes Your Majesty the grace of the heavens . I have the pleasure of escorting Your Majesty Reward .

" A young man in light armor dismounted from his horse and bowed to Governor Zhang . His face was as fair as jade, and his figure was tall and straight . His phoenix eyes were as bright as the stars .

nHe was like a beautiful tree, outstanding and extraordinary . Cao Yunnian, who stood in the ranks of the officials, looked at the young man and secretly sighed in his heart, as expected of someone raised by the Su Family . At the age of twenty, he was promoted to become a first-level guard and was given a prominent mission by the Emperor . He dared to ask the Emperor to come here . It seems like he has been on the official .

nIt's been ten years since he climbed up, but he had only recently broken through to the fourth rank . As expected, this person really can't be compared to him . Governor Zhang led the young man to escort the reward to the governor's manor . The other officials at the side were smiling politely to the side, but they couldn't stop glancing at the two carriages .
