Chapter 379 The Old Jade King Returns to Beijing
After laughing, she said to Ji Fugui, "You did a good job on this matter. I'll give you a bonus at the end of the year!"
Ji Fugui quickly waved his hands, "It's all because of Madam's kindness. I was just helping out, so it doesn't count as any credit!"
Xiao Tu patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be modest. You've managed Duobao Pavilion very well. Keep up the good work!"
Ji Fugui kept laughing and nodding.
As the two were talking, they suddenly saw an anxious figure running towards them.
When he saw Xiao Tu after entering the room, his eyes immediately lit up and he quickly ran up to her and said, "Master, it's great! I finally get to see you!"
Xiao Tu smiled and glanced at him, "Why are you running to see me so quickly? What's the matter?"
Xie Yulong was about to say something, but suddenly he held back and glanced at Ji Fugui secretly.
Seeing this, Xiao Tu smiled and said to Ji Fugui, "I'm leaving first. If you have anything, come to the Governor's Mansion to find me!"
Ji Fugui knew that the second son of Marquis Xie might have something to say, so he sent him out without trying to keep him.
Xiao Tu led Xie Er out of Duobao Pavilion, and her beautiful eyes glanced at him lazily, "What's going on? Why are you so mysterious?"
Xie Er looked at her and lowered his voice, "Master, it seems you don't know yet. Something happened in the palace last night!"
"Something happened in the palace?" Wasn't she in the palace last night? "What happened?"
Xie Er's face was filled with disbelief. "Last night, there was a fire in the harem. The emperor, all the concubines, and the princes were burned to death!"
Xiao Tu raised an eyebrow, "All dead?"
Xie Er looked at her and said, "Yes, as long as they are from the royal family, no one will be left alive."
Xiao Tu hummed. She now understood what that bastard had done last night, but she wasn't surprised. She just glanced at Xie Er curiously, "I did just find out, but why are you looking for me for this?"
Xie Er looked at her and hesitated to speak, "Not entirely..."
Seeing this expression, Xiao Tu pondered it, "Looks very entangled. Is it about Ning Cuo?"
Xie Er fell silent when he heard this. He was not a fool. He didn't need to guess how these people in the palace died. It was just that it involved Governor Ning, the master's man, so he felt it was difficult to speak.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xiao Tu didn't rush, "Then wait until you have thought it through and come back to me!"
Seeing her about to leave, Xie Er couldn't help but say, "It's about my cousin. You know Duan Yang. I, I just wanted to come over and ask Master if she is also..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tu remembered the woman who liked to call her Fairy Sister. She had forgotten that she was also a princess and a relative of Xie Er.
Xiao Tu opened his eyes and looked at Xie Er's fate, then said, "Don't worry, he should be fine!"
Maybe I have lost my memory!
Xie Er was immediately pleasantly surprised and said, "Really, she's fine, that's great!"
After saying that, he secretly looked at Xiaotu happily.
After all, Duan Yang is the Queen's daughter. She did not die in the fire last night. He believed that it must be because of the Master!
Fortunately, Duan Yang is not the emperor's biological daughter. Governor Ning did not kill her last night, and he probably won't kill her again in the future!
The master is indeed a benefactor to their family!
Seeing how happy he was, Xiao Tu didn't say much.
After all, the bad guy was giving Duan Yang a favor by letting her live, and the best outcome would be for her to lose her memory!
In fact, she was not very familiar with the princess, but that guy was really afraid that she would feel even a little uncomfortable!
Xiao Tu thought about it and couldn't help laughing again.
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard the rumbling sound of horse hooves on the street ahead, and then I saw a group of horseback riding soldiers coming towards me in the distance.
Xie Er, who was just looking at it happily, turned around and immediately changed his expression and said, "Old Jade Prince has returned to the capital!"
