"It seems that she not only wants to burn down the Lotus Courtyard, but also wants to kill us."

Lin You looked at the several-foot-high fire around her and said faintly. Shen Xian was very anxious when he saw her calmness. "Why is the imperial concubine so calm?"

"There's no point in being anxious, just wait for rescue."

Hearing this, Shen Xian, Daya, Huanbi, and Yan Zhi, who were extremely panicked, couldn't help but calm down, and a trace of admiration flashed in their eyes when they looked at Lin You.

Their queen must have had foresight to have thought that this was a conspiracy and sent people to call for help in advance?

But, isn't their mother always with them?

Several people were suspicious, and suddenly heard Lin You's inner voice, screaming, "Ah! I'm going to be roasted, System Brother! Check where Yan Lu is? Hasn't he been following us in secret? Why didn't he tell us when he saw that the fire was not right? Did he go to find someone to put out the fire?"

Shen Xian, Daya, Huanbi, Yanzhi...

Just when they were feeling hopeless, they heard the system's voice, "The one called Yanlu just discovered a few sneaky people in the dark, so he went to arrest them and question them. It was also during this time that the alley caught fire, so he didn't notice it, but now he has indeed gone to find someone."

[Where can I get help?]

[The General's Mansion, only the General's Mansion is the closest to here. ]

Lin You wanted to vomit blood [Looking at the fire, there is no way we can wait for the people from the General's Mansion to come! ]

The hopes that had just risen in Shen Xian and the others' hearts were extinguished again.

system【……】

"Have you guys not eaten yet? Why are you so slow?"

At this time, a loud voice was heard at the entrance of the alley. Lin You felt that the voice was familiar. He immediately lifted the car curtain and saw a group of people at the entrance of the alley, putting out the fire with water.

The man standing in the front was of burly build.

[System, could that person be the Black Market Knife Master?]

[Yes, that's him.]

[He saw that you had not been to the black market again, so he sent people to follow you. Coincidentally, his people saw you trapped, so they went to the black market to tell Dao Ye.]

[In fact, the black market is the closest place to here. ]

Lin You raised his eyebrows, [Yes, the black market is closer to here.]

[However, it is understandable that Yanlu did not think of Daoye first. ]

Everyone felt relieved when they saw someone coming to rescue them.

Shen Xian was attracted by Lin You's inner voice, and his mood became much calmer.

He had been to the black market before and had held the black market warrant for three years, but he had never seen Dao Ye being so enthusiastic or special to him. And he was so special to Lin You, it was really unexpected.

"Tianxian, please come here quickly, we have put out the fire."

Dao Ye put out the fire and pushed open the door that was blocking the way, then called Lin You.

Upon hearing this, Yan Zhi immediately spurred his horse, and in a flash, they reached a safe area.

"Tianxian, are you okay?"

Dao Ye came to the front of the carriage and asked Lin You, looking quite anxious.

Lin You smiled and said, "Thank you, Master Dao. We are fine."

"It's all right, it's all right. Don't worry, we'll take care of the fire."

Dao Ye led a group of people and continued to put out the fire. Even though the flames burned him, he remained unmoved and kept walking steadily. At this moment, Lin You seemed to see the firefighter.

"It's late at night, Concubine You, please go back first. I will take care of things here."

Shen Xian paused and clenched his fists, "It's a pity that I didn't give Lian'er an explanation for her manuscripts."

"It's not a big problem." Lin You said. Shen Xian met her gaze in surprise and saw the cunning in her eyes. She raised the corners of her bright red lips. "Don't worry, I hid a few pages of Miss Lian's manuscript in my sleeves at that time."

Hearing this, Shen Xian was a little stunned, "Really, where is it?"

Lin You hooked his finger at him, and Shen Xian leaned over to whisper. After the two talked for a while, Shen Xian's face, which had been full of gloom, instantly looked much better.

He even put on his usual devilish smile, "It's really too easy for her to just do that."

After Shen Xian left, Lin You and others were about to leave when they heard the sound of several galloping horses on the street. It was obvious that Yan Lu had gone to the General's Mansion to bring reinforcements.

"My Lady, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

"Sorry, we're late."

Lin Zhan, Lin Tianchu, and Lin He, father and son, all came over. As soon as they got off the carriage, they ran to Lin You.

Everyone's face was filled with worry.

There was a hint of surprise in Lin You's eyes. This speed was much faster than she expected!

But it was too late after all.

Just like their love for the original owner, it came too late, so she felt nothing.

"I am fine, don't worry. I am tired. Now that I am here, I will help Prince Xian put out the fire."

Lin You said this calmly and lowered the car curtain.

Although Lin Zhan and his son were a little confused, they still nodded. Just as they were about to pick up the bucket to help, they heard Lin You add, "By the way, Yan Lu has caught a few arsonists. Go help him and send them to the Ministry of Justice."

"it is good."

The father and his two sons responded in unison. After they finished speaking, the three of them looked at each other.

Finally, she looked at the carriage going further and further away with some worry in her eyes. With such a big fire, she must have been more or less frightened.

It’s their fault that they came too late and failed to rescue her immediately.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is back."

Shen Jing'an had just finished bathing. When he heard the eunuch's words, he just put on his inner clothes and went to the palace.

It was just a little late when he realized that this woman Lin You was in trouble again.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the hall, he saw several people slowly moving back to the door. Among them, the one in front was covering his face with his sleeves.

There were also some gray stains on the sleeves.

The people behind all lowered their heads, but one could see that their clothes and hair were stained with a light layer of ash.

"boom--"

As she was walking, Lin You bumped into someone. The duck in her arms was squeezed and quacked. She quickly put down her hands and comforted the two little ducks. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The emperor is very gentle. He never gets angry easily, nor does he scold or hit anyone."

Shen Jingan, "..."

Is this for the duck to hear, or for him?

Lin You was comforting the little duck when his hand was suddenly grabbed by him and he sat on the couch. "Are you hurt?"

As he asked this, he was already examining her face, her neck, and her hands.

Lin You grinned, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I'm not hurt at all."

"Yes, this is the duck I brought back for you, so you will have a companion in the future."

Looking at the two little ducks stuffed into his arms, Shen Jing'an was stunned.

"Quack, quack!"

The two little ducks seemed to like him very much. Their eyes were shining and they called softly at him a few times.

Indeed, very cute.

Lin You quietly stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Shen Jingan again.
