Just as Lu Yanluo was secretly investigating Kong Chenyang, an unexpected person came to the Night King's Mansion again.

"Mom, please come and see Xiaobao!" Chu Yuan yelled anxiously, ran in, took Lu Yanluo's hand and walked out.

Outside Yun Yayuan, Chu Yao was supporting a little child and limping towards this side.

Lu Yanluo was shocked. The person in Chu Yao's arms was actually Kong Chenyang's son Xiaobao.

"What happened? What happened to Xiaobao?" Lu Yanluo took a few quick steps and took Xiaobao from Chu Yao's hands.

Xiaobao's face was pale, as if he had been frightened by something, and his whole body was shaking. When he saw Lu Yanluo reaching out her hand to him, he shrank back in fear.

Chu Yao and Lu Yanluo explained behind him, "We don't know what happened. Today, I took Yuanyuan out. I hadn't walked far when I saw Xiaobao squatting there. My son saw that he looked bad and couldn't even stand steadily, so he brought him back."

Lu Yanluo nodded to indicate that she understood. Xiaobao did not look well, and Lu Yanluo noticed with her sharp eyes that there was a little blood on Xiaobao's dark green sleeves.

After returning to the house, Lu Yanluo quickly took off Xiaobao's clothes to check. Fortunately, no scars were found, but looking at Xiaobao's dazed and shrunken appearance, it was obvious that he was very frightened.

"Xiaobao, do you still remember your aunt? I am Yuanyuan and Yaoyao's mother. Do you remember?" Lu Yanluo asked softly.

Xiaobao slowly raised his head and looked at Lu Yanluo, as if confirming. After a while, he slowly nodded, but still did not speak.

Lu Yanluo smiled gently and spoke again: "Xiaobao, come out, do Daddy and Mommy know? Why are you squatting on the street?"

For some unknown reason, Xiaobao began to struggle and tried to run outside. Seeing this, Lu Yanluo quickly picked him up and patted him soothingly: "It's okay, it's okay, you are safe now, Xiaobao, don't be afraid."

It was not until a long time later that Xiaobao calmed down and fell asleep leaning gently in Lu Yanluo's arms.

Lu Yanluo carefully placed the person on the bed, covered him with a quilt, and then turned and left.

Outside the door, Chu Yuan and Chu Yao looked on anxiously. They were very worried about Xiaobao.

As soon as they saw Lu Yanluo coming out, they quickly surrounded her and asked, "Mom, what happened to Xiaobao? Is he sick?"

"No, don't worry, you two. Xiaobao is asleep, you should go and rest too. We can talk about anything tomorrow."

After hearing this, the two children had to go back temporarily.

Turning around and looking at the room where Xiaobao was, Lu Yanluo was still a little uneasy, so she called someone and said, "Go to the Kong Mansion quickly and tell the Kong family that Xiaobao is in the Yewang Mansion, and ask them to pick him up."

The servant bowed and retreated, hurriedly going to Confucius's mansion.

Half an hour later, the servant who went to the Kong Mansion hurried back to report, his eyes full of disbelief: "Princess, there is no one in the Kong Mansion. It is now an empty house, without even a single person!"

"What!" Lu Yanluo was surprised. She turned to look at Chu Xuan beside her and asked, "Did you see Kong Chenyang at the morning court today?"

"I saw him during the morning court session. Everything was normal at the time, and there was nothing suspicious." Because of Lu Yanluo, Chu Xuan actually took a special look at Kong Chenyang during the morning court session.

[How is it possible? The entire Confucius Mansion disappeared out of thin air? This is too weird! What on earth happened in the Confucius Mansion? ]

Lu Yanluo was full of doubts, but she had to consider the current situation. Xiaobao was quite frightened, and the Kong family left the house overnight. Now she could only temporarily leave Xiaobao in the Night King's Mansion to be taken care of.

At night, when it was late and quiet, a suppressed cry suddenly came from Yun Yayuan.

Lu Yanluo woke up from her sleep with her heart beating violently. For some reason, she suddenly wanted to go see Xiaobao.

Thinking of the child who was extremely frightened and distracted during the day, Lu Yanluo felt a little reluctant, so she got up, put on her clothes and went to the room where Xiaobao was temporarily living.

Before she reached the door, she heard crying from inside. Lu Yanluo hurriedly took a few steps and slowly pushed the door open.

Inside the house, Xiaobao curled up on the bed, wrapped himself tightly in a quilt, shaking all over, and intermittent cries came out of his mouth.

"Xiaobao, what's wrong with you?" Lu Yanluo took a few steps forward, hugged Xiaobao in her arms, and patted him constantly.

After a long while, Xiao Bao seemed to have found his backbone. He tightly grasped Lu Yanluo's clothes, slowly raised his head and said to Lu Yanluo: "Aunt, my father is in danger. Can you go and save him?"

Lu Yanluo was surprised and asked quickly: "Xiaobao, do you know where your father is now?"

Xiaobao hesitated and nodded with difficulty: "Xiaobao can take Auntie to find Daddy. Can Auntie save Daddy?"

Lu Yanluo nodded: "Okay, Auntie will definitely do her best to save your father."

Upon hearing this, Xiaobao immediately stood up, put on his shoes quickly, and took Lu Yanluo's hand and left the Ye Palace.

As they walked along, Lu Yanluo became more and more surprised. This was the road to the Kong Mansion, but wasn't there already anyone in the Kong Mansion? Why did Xiaobao bring her to the Kong Mansion?

"Xiaobao, are you going to take your aunt back home? But..." Before Lu Yanluo finished her words, she saw smoke rising from the corner of her eye at the location of the Kong Mansion.

On Fire!

No longer caring about anything else, Lu Yanluo picked up Xiaobao and walked quickly towards the Kong Mansion. The closer they got, the bigger the fire became. More and more people gathered around the Kong Mansion. Everyone tried to put out the fire, but the flames shot up into the sky and they could not get close at all. They could only watch as the fire engulfed the entire mansion.

Lu Yanluo looked at the Kong Mansion engulfed in fire in shock, and left holding Xiaobao tightly.

Now that things have come to this, no matter whether Kong Chenyang is dead or alive, we must report to the authorities.

After daybreak, the news spread that the residence of historian Kong Chenyang had been burned down by fire overnight. During the morning court session, the emperor specifically mentioned the matter, and everyone realized that Kong Chenyang had not attended court today.

Could it be that he was burned to death in the mansion? The emperor personally sent people to the Confucius Mansion to investigate the situation, but unexpectedly, they really dug up a charred body in the ruins.

When the body was found, the nature of the matter changed, and it quickly escalated from a fire to a murder case.

But Kong Chenyang had been burned to death in the fire. The emperor could only send people to investigate the cause of the fire and ordered Kong Chenyang's body to be buried.

Kong Chenyang died and the Kong Mansion was burned to ashes, but strangely, all the other people in the Kong Mansion, except Kong Chenyang, appeared overnight.

Kong Chenyang's wife said that she took people to Kongjian Temple in the suburbs of Beijing to pray yesterday at noon, and stayed in the temple that night. When she returned the next day, she heard that the Kong Mansion had been burned down by a fire and Kong Chenyang had been burned to death in the fire.
