Record 275: Unknown Body (2)

"Did someone die in the fire?"

Liao Yingzhong, who was standing with Jia Sidao, reacted very quickly. Naturally, he stood closer than He Yansou and rushed to the heavy object that resembled a human body carried by the guards.

He took the lead and said: "But the maid who made a mistake and was punished a few days ago could not be saved?"

The guard who came over in a hurry quickly found an open place to put down the heavy object wrapped in a large piece of linen.

One of the guards stammered: "Mr. Hui, yes! There are two, two more inside!"

This move naturally attracted the attention of all onlookers instantly, even those who were preparing to say goodbye were attracted.

The captain of the guard who was busy directing the fire extinguishing on the other side also heard something strange, but when he rushed over, he found that it was too late to stop his subordinates who did not know the truth.

He looked at Jia Sidao and the others in fear, feeling at a loss for a moment.

"Put the person down quickly. Is there any hope of being saved? You can go find the doctor quickly!"

Then Jiang Wanli's old voice was heard shouting hoarsely, and he followed He Yansou's footsteps towards the guards who were carrying unknown heavy objects.

Later, Wen Lushan, Bao Hui and others also took advantage of the situation and followed them there.

The servants in Pingzhang Mansion were also frightened and had no choice but to run away to find the doctor.

In this room, Butler Liu's expression changed suddenly, and he immediately approached Jia Sidao, who also had a strange look on his face, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Then he hurriedly turned around and greeted: "Dear ladies, I have been honored to come to our West Lake Villa today. How could such a beautiful moonlight ruin your interest because of a small fire caused by fireworks!"

"Please also invite your husband to return to the True Meaning Garden with His Royal Highness Prince Rong. There will be fragrant tea, singing and dancing waiting for the nobles to enjoy! Just leave this place to the villain!"

As soon as everyone heard this, they naturally knew that the matter was strange, but it was inconvenient to say more, but their eyes were already burning with the eagerness to uncover gossip and anecdotes.

Prince Rong and his wife, who had been watching from afar, couldn't help but look at each other again.

An extravagant night banquet turned into a huge fire, and people might have been burned to death, so there was no mood to continue.

But the master didn't seem to want everyone to explore further, so he could only move back slowly while looking at each other.

"I know a little about the art of Qihuang, please allow me to take a look!"

At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly echoed loudly, and then two figures were seen rushing out of the crowd.

Everyone took a closer look and saw a strange and ugly young man. The person following him surprised them all - he was actually the eldest son of the Xie family.

"Brother Zhao? Come here quickly!"

In the other room, He Yansou was about to open the linen cloth, but when he heard the familiar voice, he quickly looked up and saw that it was Zhao Chonghuan, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Wen Lushan hurriedly turned back to look for the familiar voice——

Sure enough, it was Zhao Chonghuan and Xie Changhuai who were running quickly, one behind the other.

Seeing the situation, Liao Yingzhong could not stop it, so she could only say politely in a loud voice: "I don't know where this young man is from. Since he knows the art of Qihuang, please come and have a look first!" Then he raised his hand and respectfully addressed Xie Changhuai who was following behind.

Bowed.

Xie Changhuai returned the gift gently.

"He is Jia Yanei's friend! He is also my master's friend!" He answered for Zhao Chonghuan.

Liao Yingzhong was stunned and immediately realized that this boy was probably the young man who said he was a ghost for Jia Zijing in the morning.

"That's better! Better!"

He glanced in the direction of Jia Sidao. Now that everyone was watching him, he had no choice but to hide it and had to act according to the situation.

Mu Hongsheng, who was not far away, stared at Zhao Chonghuan who suddenly appeared. He frowned slightly and looked up and down. He felt that this person was vaguely familiar.

Zhao Chonghuan had rushed to He Yansou's side regardless of everything. He had already noticed Wen Lushan wherever he looked. She only looked at him and said hello calmly.

She knelt down and without hesitation opened up the steaming linen wrapped around her——

Sure enough, there was a young girl inside, with a face full of soot, her eyes closed tightly, and she looked vaguely delicate. Judging from the situation, she had been suffocated by the smoke to the point of fainting...
