1020 fire, there are always a few people who can't stand others doing well

The Lu family had never thought of ruining Feng Qingchen's birthday party. The Ninth Prince invited all the important people in Shandong to Feng Qingchen's birthday party, but not the Lu family. If there was a problem with Feng Qingchen's birthday party, the Lu family would be the most suspected, but...

When the opportunity comes, the Lu family will not be polite.

The birthday banquet went smoothly. After all, the Ninth Prince's status was there. Even if he appeared at the banquet and sat at the first seat without saying a word, those officials did not dare to leave early.

As for the Governor of Shandong? No matter how dissatisfied he was, he would not show it on his face. Besides, facing the cold eyes of the Ninth Prince, he probably did not dare to show his dissatisfaction.

Luohua Courtyard was bustling with activity, with the men drinking from time to time. Even with the presence of the Ninth Prince, the king of awkward silences, the atmosphere was lively.

Feng Qingchen entertained the female relatives in Qiuhua Garden. The wives of officials like the Governor's wife looked down on Feng Qingchen, thinking that she was a foxy woman who had achieved her current glory by hooking up with the Ninth Prince.

However, even though they looked down on others, they would not show it on the surface and would only say a few false flattering words from time to time. But it was different for those young ladies from official families.

They had mixed feelings towards Feng Qingchen, they looked down on him but also envied him.

It is really a pity that a man as handsome and noble as the Ninth Prince is entangled with such a woman. All the women of the right age present want to replace him. It would be great if they could stay by the Ninth Prince's side forever, even if they have no name or status.

Another group of business wives and daughters tried to please Feng Qingchen in every possible way, and whispered to him, these business daughters also seemed to want to get close to the Ninth Prince, but they did not dare to be jealous of Feng Qingchen, they just hoped to use Feng Qingchen to get to the top. |

Not to mention the Ninth Prince's identity, his appearance alone is enough to make women fall in love with him. Feng Qingchen understood the thoughts of these young ladies but did not point it out.

Anyway, these people have no chance. Let alone getting close to the Ninth Prince, it is difficult for these women to even meet him. If the Ninth Prince was so easy to get close to, those noble ladies in the capital would not be so eager to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

The Ninth Prince was well-known for being rude to women. Faced with these women asking about his hobbies in a roundabout way, Feng Qingchen did not feel any pressure and told them kindly.

As for whether it could be used, that was not something she had to consider.

It was extremely painful to chat with a group of women who said one thing and meant another. Feng Qingchen resisted the urge to yawn and signaled the servants to bring new snacks. At this moment, a maidservant outside the door shouted, "Oh no, oh no, there's a fire, there's a fire."

Feng Qingchen looked up and saw thick smoke rising in front of him, and soon flames appeared.

"There's a fire outside, go, go." The flames spread strangely in all directions, and soon thick smoke rose from several places outside the house.

Qiuhua Garden is full of female relatives. These women may not have other skills, but they are the best at screaming and making noise.

For a moment, Qiuhua Garden was in chaos. The women and young ladies stood up in a hurry, shouting and rushing out, ending up squeezed together. The house was in chaos and the servants outside were busy putting out the fire.

Feng Qingchen looked at this scene and slammed the table in displeasure: "Everyone, be quiet."

It was not known whether Feng Qingchen was too imposing or these women had calmed down. Feng Qingchen's shouting instantly made everyone quiet down. Everyone looked at Feng Qingchen. Feng Qingchen was also angry and shouted, "Look at what you are like. The fire has just started and it hasn't burned into the room yet, but you are already in a mess. You will scare yourself to death before you are killed by the fire."

It was really strange that a fire broke out at this time. As the host, Feng Qingchen didn't want anything to happen to the guests, otherwise she would lose face. She couldn't help but speak harshly, but she didn't expect those young ladies to be dissatisfied.

"Hmph, who the hell are you? What right do you have to teach us a lesson? If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have encountered such a thing." The governor's daughter can be said to be the leader of Shandong women, but Feng Qingchen overshadowed her as soon as he arrived. She had always disliked Feng Qingchen, but she was just holding it in. After being scolded by Feng Qingchen, she forgot her parents' advice.

Seeing the governor's daughter's arrogant look, Feng Qingchen just shook her head. There was no need for her to be angry with a delicate young lady, but the words of the governor's daughter did remind her.

Feng Qingchen smiled at everyone and said, "Ladies and young ladies, I apologize for my poor hospitality. Qiuhua Garden suddenly caught fire. It may not be safe for you to stay here. Please leave one by one."

As a result of this commotion, the thick smoke turned into fire, but the servants discovered it in time and it did not really burn out. The ladies knew that they had just lost their composure, so they pretended to be calm and forced themselves to smile.

The Governor's daughter wanted to say something, but was stopped by the Governor's wife. Feng Qingchen said that everyone should leave in turn. As the Governor's wife, she was of course the first to leave. The Governor's wife pulled her daughter to the front, and the others followed one by one.

At this point, the situation had been under control, but at this moment, a group of masked men in black jumped out from nowhere and rushed directly into Qiuhua Courtyard.

"Get out of the way. Anyone who blocks the road will be killed without mercy." The man in black shouted sternly. The ladies who had finally calmed down panicked again. The timid ones fluttered their eyelids, closed their eyes and fainted.

Feng Qingchen's pupils suddenly tightened, and he wanted to rush out, but thinking of his current situation and the speed of the opponent, Feng Qingchen held back.

It seemed that these people were coming for her, and most importantly, they were charging straight ahead, so she couldn't escape at all.

"Ah... someone help me." The others were not in a much better condition, each holding their heads and screaming.

After the group of black-clothed men rushed in, they did not kill anyone. They just kicked away the women who were blocking their way. The black-clothed men ignored the chaos outside the house and rushed directly into the house. When they saw Feng Qingchen standing in the middle of the house, calm and dignified, they paused and asked uncertainly, "Feng Qingchen?"

"It's me. Who are you?" There was no one around Feng Qingchen, only two little maids with pale faces standing behind her. They looked like they couldn't protect her, let alone not be a burden to her.

As for the others, when the men in black surrounded Feng Qingchen, they crawled away, not caring about Feng Qingchen's life or death at all. All the flattery and connections became insignificant in the face of life and death.

The man didn't waste time talking to Feng Qingchen. After confirming Feng Qingchen's identity, the man in black raised his knife and stepped forward: "Since you are Feng Qingchen, then go and die."

The sharp sword came towards her, Feng Qingchen raised her eyebrows, and did not try to dodge. Her action frightened the black-clothed man. A hint of treacherousness flashed in his eyes, but the murderous aura on his body did not weaken at all. He thought that this strike would definitely hit him, but he did not expect...
