The spring waves shimmered under the bridge, and the distant mountains were dark green. After a thunderstorm, the city of Bianjing welcomed a sunny day.
The birds are calling for clear skies, and the storyteller under the bridge has stopped telling stories today. A group of listeners who usually gather together are now sitting together, discussing the latest gossip in Kyoto.
"A fire destroyed most of Prince Jin's mansion, and all that's left are the garden and the front porch. How bizarre!"
"Who says it's not true? The thunder from heaven wouldn't strike anyone else's house, but his. If he says he hasn't done anything wrong, I don't believe it!"
"What kind of guilt could there be?" someone asked this question.
Ambiguous laughter was heard all around, and everyone looked at each other, as if they all knew what was going on.
Chu Jincheng's mind was also full of lawsuits at the moment. His hands, hidden in his navy blue brocade robes, were clenched tightly together. He tried his best to maintain a calm face, but he still couldn't hide his murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, could it be that someone wants to harm you?"
Bai Hui Niang was wearing an extremely simple dress at this time, crying while holding a handkerchief, which made Chu Jincheng more upset than ever.
"This isn't the first time this has happened." Chu Jincheng's voice was low, revealing a deep sense of displeasure. "Don't act like you've never seen anything like this before."
Bai Hui Niang choked and couldn't help but complain in her heart. She felt it was better not to see such a world!
Looking at the burned-out Prince Jin's Mansion, Bai Hui Niang was filled with hatred. Obviously, Chu Jincheng also knew that this matter was not that simple, otherwise he would not be so angry.
There were several fires, and it was obvious that they were man-made. However, the officers who came to investigate the case said it was thunder from the sky, and they looked like they wanted to settle the matter peacefully. Bai Hui Niang wanted to say something, but seeing Chu Jincheng's unexpected silence, she swallowed the words that were on her throat.
"Cer is frightened. Why are you running here instead of looking after the child?" Chu Jincheng didn't want to listen to the woman's nagging. At this time, women were the most likely to cause trouble.
Then he glanced at Bai Hui Niang's clothes and said, "You are the only mistress in this mansion. The most urgent thing now is to stabilize the mansion and not let yourself get out of control and become a laughing stock to outsiders."
Bai Hui Niang lowered her head and replied obediently, "Your Highness, this is an emergency. My belongings were all destroyed in the fire, and I nearly lost my life. These clothes are just a temporary solution. I will go and tell everyone to take care of the house."
She keenly sensed Chu Jincheng's uncharacteristic indifference and his different attitude towards her, but now was a sensitive time, and she wouldn't be stupid enough to say anything inappropriate.
A figure emerged in Chu Jincheng's mind. If Sui Huan were still alive, the mansion would definitely not be like this now. After all, she was born into a wealthy family and was well-educated. Bai Hui Niang was still lacking in handling these matters.
It was just a flash of thought in his mind, and Chu Jincheng suddenly became a little annoyed. Why did he think of Zhou Suihuan? He was really confused!
But just as this thought came to his mind, the figure he met in the back garden on the day of his wedding appeared again. Chu Jincheng couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows and sighed sadly.
He suddenly felt confused about what Zhou Suihuan meant to him.
At the Jinyi Marquis Mansion in Puying Lane, Feng was beaming with joy.
"My eldest sister is getting married soon. It's really not easy!"
Jiang Yuzhen glanced at Jiang Mingzhi, who was sitting in a plum blossom ebony armchair, with a hint of gloating in her smile.
