It can be said that the Shi family is the Xiao family's money bag.

Every year, almost half of the Shi family's profit was given to Xiao Guozhang.

With this unparalleled wealth, the abbot Xiao took advantage of Queen Xiao's favor, so the Xiao family was able to quickly win over half of the courtiers under his command and become members of the Xiao family's party.

If it were not for the Shi family, the Xiao family would definitely have half of their arms cut off.

But according to the current development of the situation, sooner or later the Xiao family will lose this vital money bag.

Shi Tianhe will never continue to blindly follow the Xiao family.

Xiao Tingyan poured a cup of warm tea for Yun Luan and put it into her palm to warm her hands.

"In less than three days, Shi Tianhe will definitely be secretly looking for opportunities to create opportunities to get close to the prince."

Yun Luan held the tea cup, narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Then we will wait and see."

They didn't stay in the teahouse for too long. When Yun Luan's palms were no longer so cold, they walked out of the box and walked towards the stairs.

Suddenly, when they passed by a private room, Yun Luan felt a hot breath rushing towards the door in front of her.

The next moment, a woman's desperate and frightened voice came from the box door: "It's on fire, come, help."

Yun Luan paused.

The fire in that room was very strong. Although the door was tightly closed, the black smoke and firelight still seeped out from the crack in the door like a fierce dragon.

Such a large fire naturally attracted the attention of many people.

The sounds of running away, screaming, and panic could be heard all the time.

Many people saw the fierce fire and ran faster than rabbits...

There was no one at all, so he kicked open the box door and went to rescue the people inside.

The shopkeeper discovered the situation upstairs, and quickly organized the boys in the store to put out the fire with basins of water.

But because the fire was so big, it was impossible to put out the raging fire.

The shopkeeper was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and hurriedly asked people to evacuate the people.

He couldn't care less about the burning box.

There is simply no way to put out this fire.

They still had to run for their lives.

The shopkeeper turned around and was about to run away, when suddenly a maid stumbled up from downstairs. When she saw the burning room, she turned pale with fear.

She grabbed the shopkeeper's arm, plopped down on the ground, cried and wailed: "Shopkeeper, you can't leave, my girl is still inside. If you don't save her, she will definitely not survive."

The shopkeeper was extremely helpless. He sighed: "The fire is too strong and it's impossible to save it. There's nothing I can do... Girl, you'd better stop caring about your girl and run away for your life."

The maid's face was full of panic: "Escape? Where should I run? My girl, she is the adopted daughter just recognized by the father of the country. She is from the Xiao family. In two days, she will participate in the draft. If she Something happened at this time, the shopkeeper is not trying to scare you."

"Even if we escape, the father-in-law will not let us go. He will definitely kill us. No matter where we escape, the father-in-law will not let us go."

When the shopkeeper heard about it, he found out that she was from the Xiao family, and she was also the latest adopted daughter recognized by the head of the country.

His face was full of panic.

This is really serious. As the maid said, if something happens to the person inside, there may be no way for him to survive no matter where he escapes.

Looking at the entire Kyoto, no one knows the way the state leader deals with people.

On the surface, he looks like a smiling tiger, but in reality, he is a cold-blooded and ruthless Hell Yama who kills without batting an eyelid.

The shopkeeper slapped his thigh and couldn't help but howl: "Oh my God, you are really killing me."

"Come on, come on, come on, rescue Miss Xiao immediately at any cost. If she dies, all of us will be buried with her."

He quickly organized the few remaining boys and kicked the door hard...

But the door seemed to be welded shut, and they couldn't open it at all.

For a time, crying, despair, and panic spread all around.

Xiao Tingyan held Yun Luan's hand: "Let's go."

Yun Luan's eyes were fixed on the door without moving.

She pondered for a long time and finally made a decision.

"Ayan, this person, we can be saved..."

Xiao Tingyan frowned.

He didn't quite understand Yun Luan's purpose of doing this.

Having known her for so long, she is not a nosy person.

Many times, if she saves someone, then that person will definitely have a reason why she must save them.

"She's just an adopted daughter whom Zhang Guozhang has just recognized. She shouldn't be too important to the Xiao family, right? Do we need to risk her life to save her?" Xiao Tingyan said in a deep voice, expressing his doubts.

Yun Luan didn't explain anything to Xiao Tingyan. She just stared at Xiao Tingyan with burning eyes: "Ayan, do you believe me?"

Xiao Tingyan nodded unconsciously: "Of course I believe you."

"Okay, since you believe me, don't ask me why. I naturally have a reason to save... I will explain the reason to you after I save the person, okay?" Yun Luan couldn't help but act coquettishly towards Xiao Tingyan. .

How could Xiao Tingyan withstand her coquettishness? He made a compromise without even thinking about it.

"Okay, let's save it."

"But just wait nearby and I'll go rescue you."

Unexpectedly, Yun Luan approached Xiao Tingyan's ear and whispered in a low voice.

Xiao Tingyan frowned after hearing this.

He looked at Yun Luan with great confusion.

"Why?"

Yun Luan blinked at him: "I said I won't explain it now."

Xiao Tingyan sighed, there was nothing he could do to her.

"Okay, I won't ask."

"Pay attention to your own safety... You must put your own safety first. If you are injured at all, I will definitely kill that woman."

Yun Luan nodded quickly in response: "Okay, don't worry, I won't let myself get hurt. You hurry up and leave... You don't have to stay here waiting for me."

She pushed Xiao Tingyan.

Xiao Tingyan shook her hand tightly, and then turned around and headed downstairs under her deep gaze.

Yun Luan looked at Xiao Tingyan's gradually leaving figure, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she snatched the bucket brought by a boy, and without any hesitation, she poured the bucket of water into her pocket.

A bone-chilling chill suddenly swept through his body.

The boy looked at Yun Luan in astonishment: "Master..."

Yun Luan pursed her lips and smiled at him, then she walked quickly to the door of the burning box and let all the boys who were pulling on the door push open.

Everyone looked at Yun Luan in disbelief.

Yun Luan didn't explain much and waited for them all to retreat.

She raised her foot and kicked the door hard.

She kicked him more than ten times in a row.

With a bang, the door finally collapsed, mixed with sparks.

People around him all looked at Yun Luan in astonishment.
