Chapter 133 Night Walk (Update 1)
In the middle of the night, this sudden change caused everyone to panic.
People were hurrying around, figures were intertwining, and panicked shouts and cries were heard continuously.
Ye Shixian woke up from her dream and quickly put on her clothes. When she saw the blazing flames rising into the sky outside, she was completely stunned.
She didn't care about anything else and ran out immediately.
The yard was in chaos.
"Get some water! Put out the fire! Put out the fire!"
Ye Shixian walked in a hurry and almost tripped. Her hair was disheveled and she looked extremely embarrassed.
"Why did the west wing suddenly catch fire?!" Ye Shixian's heart was hanging in her throat. "Mingze is still over there! Go and save him!"
Shaoyao held her back, feeling extremely frightened.
"Miss, don't worry! Someone has already gone to check! The fire over there is huge and too dangerous. Don't go over there!"
Ye Shixian already felt a slight burning pain on her face. She paused when she heard this and tightly grasped Shaoyao's hand, looking anxious: "No matter what, we must rescue Mingze!"
Shaoyao immediately shouted at everyone around her: "Didn't you hear the eldest lady's order? Go and save the second young master!"
The servants rushed in reluctantly.
Clang——!
A burning door panel fell heavily to the ground, sparks flying everywhere.
Ye Shixian took a step back in shock, her lips turning pale.
She looked around and finally saw Ye Heng who was rushing towards her.
He was obviously awakened from his sleep. He came in a hurry with an extremely ugly expression.
"What the hell is going on!"
The housekeeper trembled with fear and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Master, the fire started from the second young master's room! People have been sent in to put out the fire, please don't worry——"
How could Ye Heng not be anxious? That was his only son!
"If anything happens to Mingze today, I'll hold you accountable!"
The housekeeper shuddered and dared not say anything more. He turned around and urged the servants to go into the fire scene to rescue people.
"Mingze!"
Gao ran over and saw the flames all over the sky. Her legs suddenly went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
"Master! You must save Mingze! If anything happens to him, I will die!"
Ye Heng was already worried, and seeing Gao crying made him even more annoyed. He shouted angrily, "Why are you crying? Mingze is fine, nothing will happen to her!"
Gao trembled all over and dared not say anything more. She just looked at the burning fire and cried silently.
Pots of water were poured out, but the fire did not seem to be weakened.
It was midsummer, the weather was dry, and the fire spread very quickly. In just a quarter of an hour, it had covered most of the west wing of the room.
Time becomes particularly difficult at this moment.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Mingze was finally carried out.
There were no signs of burns on his body, but his eyes were closed and he had actually passed out.
Gao immediately rushed over, first happy and then surprised, "Mingze? What's wrong with you!?"
He clearly doesn't look injured, how come he is like this?
The servant who had finally carried the man out replied, "Master, Madam, when we went in, the Second Young Master was already unconscious!"
Ye Shixian remembered something and felt a chill in her heart: "Mingze seemed to have drunk a lot of wine at night——"
He could have escaped earlier, but because he was drunk he was unable to sober up in time and inhaled a large amount of smoke and dust, which led to his current coma.
Ye Heng said sternly: "Go get the doctor! No, just get Doctor Zhang!"
…
The fire burned for a long time and was not finally put out until late at night.
But the entire west wing has become a charred ruin.
Ye Shixian stared at the scene blankly, still not coming back to her senses.
She could never have imagined that such an accident would happen just after moving back here.
"Miss? Miss?" Shaoyao looked around and whispered timidly, "This is too weird. How come he just came back and... Is there really something unclean on the Second Young Master——"
Before he could finish his words, Ye Shixian stopped him coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Shaoyao panicked and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, young lady! I just said something wrong!"
There were people around, and Ye Shixian didn't want to make a big fuss. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and lowered her voice: "That's enough! Don't you think today's troubles are not enough!?"
The rumors about Ye Mingze have never stopped. After today, I'm afraid they will be brought up again and criticized.
Once you get a reputation like this, it won’t be easy to wash it off!
She suppressed her annoyance and said, "I'll go see Mingze."
The house has already burned down, and looking at it any further will only cause more trouble. Mingze has not woken up yet, and this is the most important thing.
Ye Shixian turned around and walked to the door of the room.
Ye Heng and Gao were both inside, and the atmosphere was heavy.
Ye Shixian walked over and glanced at Ye Mingze who was lying on the bed. Doctor Zhang was taking his pulse, but he still seemed to have no signs of waking up.
"father."
She cried out softly,
"Don't worry, Mingze will be fine. I've already asked people to clean up outside, and we will definitely be able to find out how the fire started."
Ye Heng frowned, but his eyes were still fixed on Ye Mingze.
Ye Shixian comforted him again: "It doesn't matter if the house and belongings are gone, as long as the people are fine-"
Ye Heng's heart suddenly jumped! He turned back suddenly!
Seeing that his face was not right, Ye Shixian asked hesitantly, "Dad, what's wrong?"
Ye Heng didn't answer her, but suddenly raised his foot and walked out hurriedly!
The room that was burned was the west wing. He had been worried about the fire from beginning to end, but he forgot that the study was facing east!
Those things——
Thinking of this, he became more anxious and quickened his pace.
Ye Shixian was worried and hurriedly followed him, only to see him walking quickly towards the study.
"father?"
Bang--!
Ye Heng kicked open the door of the study and quickly scanned the room.
The inconspicuous pearwood box was still quietly lying there, tightly locked with the copper lock, with no signs of having been touched.
Ye Heng closed his eyes and let out a long breath.
Not bad, not bad!
"Dad? Are you...looking for something?" Ye Shixian, who followed later, looked confused.
Ye Heng took a deep breath, and when he turned around, his expression had returned to normal.
"nothing."
…
A hint of paleness appeared on the horizon, and the azure sky was clear and high, as if covered with a layer of green glaze.
Ye Yunfeng grabbed the teapot on the table and gulped down the water.
Ye Chutang brushed off the dust on the corner of her skirt, then walked around the screen and came to the bed.
Ye Jingyan, who had been sitting by the bed all night, looked back and was about to speak, but Ye Chutang shook his head slightly and pointed inside.
——Xiaowu is sleeping soundly, don’t wake her up.
Ye Jingyan nodded, swallowed the words in his throat, and his eyes fell on Ye Chutang's other hand.
That was a very familiar book.
"Chunhui Mountain Records"
No.
This is not the book that my sister bought before.
