Chapter 412: A Little Death Expert
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
The huge prison was completely silent, with only the howling north wind outside the door.
“Don’t worry, everyone, it’s okay, let’s all go.” Shen Wan rolled her eyes and said deliberately.
She knew clearly that Xie Lian felt guilty towards Helian Bijun.
If this knot in his heart is not untied, he will never feel at peace in his life.
When he heard that they were leaving, Xie Lian subconsciously looked at Helian Bijun.
Helian Bijun turned her head away and didn't even look at him.
It was true that she loved him, but it was also true that she had resentments in her heart.
Although this medicine is not fatal, I am in so much pain, how can he not even say a word of concern?
Could it be that after spending more than half a year together day and night, he has never felt the slightest bit touched?
The more Helian Bijun thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt.
Her eyes were red and bitter tears rolled down her smooth face.
Seeing her thin shoulders trembling slightly, Xie Lian felt a little bit sorry.
But he couldn't say anything in public.
Shen Wan had already spoken, and even if Chu Wei was reluctant, he couldn't stay here any longer.
In desperation, he could only retreat with a few officers.
Soon, peace returned to the huge cell.
"I thought you would help her." Xie Mubai said lightly while sitting in the car.
As the butler, Xie Lian naturally had to sit outside the car.
Through the thick cotton curtain, he could still hear their conversation clearly.
Shen Wan also knew that the villain was speaking to the Duke of Zhenguo.
"It's true that I want to help her, but I don't want to put myself in trouble." She thought for a moment and smiled, "That Chu Wei is not a good person. I have to be careful."
"But don't worry, Chu Wei will definitely take action again."
The Helian family has evidence of Chu Wei's trade, so he absolutely cannot let anything happen to Helian Bijun.
Among all the people, Chu Wei is probably the most anxious one. Even Chen Jiu may not be half as anxious as him.
Xie Lian is not a fool, how could he not understand the interests involved?
But he didn't say anything, just drove silently.
As expected, the already exhausted Chu Wei quickly took action again.
This time he chose the simplest and most brutal way, which was to set fire!
Lanyang City is located in a remote area. Apart from the endless yellow sand outside the city, the most impressive thing is the biting north wind in winter.
Looking at the sky that was illuminated red by the blazing flames, Shen Wan couldn't help but frown.
"Why would the Third Prince choose such a fool to guard here?" She looked puzzled.
Taking advantage of the fire to rob the prison was indeed a good idea, but Chu Wei seemed to have forgotten how difficult it was to put out the fire in such windy weather.
Lanyang is already short of water.
Moreover, the roads in the city are narrow, and the prison, the county government office and the houses behind them are almost connected together.
Add to that the howling north wind, and it would be strange if everything isn't wiped out.
Xie Mubai looked calm.
"Because even an idiot can handle the job here." He curled his lips and smiled coldly, "For the dog emperor, being able to keep an eye on the fugitives here, whether they are alive or dead, is a mission successfully accomplished."
What he said was absolutely true.
Most of the important criminals of the imperial court were exiled to the quarry, where the conditions were extremely harsh.
As long as the city gate is closed, outsiders cannot come in.
If they wanted to escape, the convicts could only go to the desert.
But there are bloodthirsty wolves and terrible quicksand in the desert. Once you enter, there is basically no possibility of survival.
Such a simple job, I guess he could do it easily, even tying a bone to a dog.
So over the years, Chu Wei has managed to secure the position of Lanyang County Magistrate.
Perhaps because everything was calm here, the dog emperor and his son never thought of transferring him away.
Although Chu Wei is stupid, it is a good thing for Shen Wan and Xie Mubai.
Although it is a bit insulting to one's intelligence to be an opponent of such a person, it is much easier.
Sure enough, the fire grew bigger and bigger.
Soon, the raging fire spread from the prison to the county government office and swept straight towards the houses of the people.
For a moment, the city was in chaos and the cries of grief were deafening.
"Let's go, let's go out and take a look." Shen Wan smiled, "As the Princess of Lanyang, how can I not go when such a big thing happens?"
Xie Mubai also laughed.
He vaguely felt that Chu Wei was going to be in trouble this time.
Under the leadership of the two men, everyone in the post station, except for a few women and children including Mrs. Li, rushed to put out the fire.
Hu Dahai and others did not have a good impression of Chu Wei, so they bypassed the county government office and went to help the people in the back street put out the fire.
Shen Wan was afraid that something might happen to Helian Changjun, so she was about to go to the county government office, but she saw Xie Lian in the billowing smoke.
He had a gloomy look on his face and was carrying a woman on his back.
The woman was wearing a bright red dress, and one could tell at a glance that she was Helian Bijun.
"Do you think Dad will be tempted?" Shen Wan asked in a very unpleasant way.
In fact, Helian Bijun is also quite good.
She is beautiful and infatuated, so it would not be surprising if Xie Lian was attracted to her.
Xie Mubai's face darkened.
He didn't like the Duke of Zhenguo, and his mother didn't have any deep feelings for him either.
But even so, he still selfishly hoped that Xie Lian would stop looking.
The reason was simple. He didn't want Xie Lian to have anything to do with foreign countries anymore. After all, the two countries were sworn enemies.
Seeing his dark face, Shen Wan smiled mischievously: “I’ll go to the backyard first, you go and help Hu Dahai and the others.”
"I'm going to the county government office!" Xie Mubai said without hesitation and went straight to the backyard.
Did this girl forget that she was also present when Helian Changjun was imprisoned?
With me here, is there any need for her to save that "completely finished" nobleman?
Shen Wan looked at it and stuck out her tongue playfully.
No one would believe that he is enthusiastic.
If I'm not mistaken, this guy is getting jealous again.
Despite all the complaints, Shen Wan still walked through the billowing smoke and followed to the backyard.
It’s not that they are afraid that the villain will not be able to rescue the people, but they are afraid that he will abuse his power for personal gain and take the opportunity to make things difficult for Helian Changjun.
"Hey, I can get up here by myself. I don't need you to pull me up!"
Sure enough, Helian Changjun's angry voice came from the billowing smoke.
Xie Mubai seemed not to hear it.
He put a rope around Helian Changjun's waist and pulled it up very roughly.
With Xie Mubai's skills, it would be too easy for him to pull someone up.
But he deliberately shook the rope hard, and ended up hitting Helian Changjun's pretty face, leaving it bruised and swollen.
"Xie Mubai, how have I ever offended you?" Helian Changjun roared in annoyance at the top of his voice.
Xie Mubai didn't want to explain either.
Strictly speaking, he didn't know how this bastard had offended him.
But whenever he thought of the fact that Helian Changjun had taken classes and done experiments with Shen Wan, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"I know, it's because of my sister, right?" Helian Changjun was so smart that he started cursing at the top of his lungs. "To tell you the truth, it's definitely an honor to be favored by my sister!"
"A guy like you with an icy face and a bad temper, I guess no woman will ever be interested in you in this life."
"The reason why Chen Wan followed you is simply because she has boarded a pirate ship and can't get off!"
Just as Shen Wan was about to step forward, she clearly heard his yelling and cursing.
When she heard this, she couldn't help but feel upset.
Someone is really asking for death.
It’s already great that the villain came to save him, what else does he need a bicycle?
