From Yuezhou to Yangzhou, they stopped and stopped when they came, and it took nearly half a month on the road. When they went, they sat in a carriage. Except for night rest and daily meals, the horseshoes traveled eastward on Jiangnan Road without stopping. , Five days later, the outline of Yangzhou City could be seen faintly.

This time both Jing Shu and Leng Yu left Lanyue Tower. After such a long time, Chu Mu might have to wait in a hurry, right?

The carriage drove into the gate of Yangzhou City, Jing Shu opened the curtain and looked out, every three months at this time, because of the upcoming treasure fair, the streets of Yangzhou City would become crowded, the carriage was moving slowly, just as she was thinking Thinking about getting out of the car and going back on foot, the sight fell on the bright tall building in the city.

The person who was sitting next to Ye Ying suddenly lifted the car curtain and went out. He was stunned and felt that something had happened, "What's wrong?"

Staring fixedly at the scorched marks on the roof of Lanyue Tower, Jing Shu's face was full of shock, what happened!

A quarter of an hour later, on the Tianzi floor of Lanyue Tower, Chu Mu stood tremblingly in front of the two who had returned, sweating all over his head, and briefly described what happened, "The girl and the young master are not here. The thief broke in, as if he was not lucky, so he set a fire upstairs. At the beginning of the middle of the night, no one noticed it. Later, when the night watchman heard the noise outside, he knew that the upstairs was on fire. fire."

Jing Shu pursed her lips tightly. The array set up on the attic can only prevent people, but it can't prevent the fire. If the fire rises, even the array will be destroyed.

Chu Mu squeezed his sweat, and continued: "Because the fire was not extinguished in time, most of the attic was destroyed. When the little one arrived, he had already picked out all the usable things, but a considerable part of them was turned into ashes in the fire. .”

Rubbing the forehead point, although the things in Lanyue Tower are not very useful to Jingshu, but...they are some rare and rare jades in the world, and they were burned to ashes by a fire. will feel sorry.

Ye Ying couldn't help but frowned, "Did the thief be caught?"

"No." Chu Mu shook his head, "It was the watchman who saw a shadow jumping out of the attic, and then caught fire. He didn't see what the thief looked like, let alone his whereabouts."

Slightly closed her fists, Jingshu looked at the attic that had turned into charcoal, if only they came back sooner...

"The government is already investigating this matter. I have been sending someone to wait at the Yamen. If there is any news, I will send it back immediately." Seeing that Jing Shu's face was not looking good, Chu Mu hesitated for a while and asked cautiously: " Girl, the treasure of this month will..."

In the past two days, the news of the fire in Lanyue Building has been spread all over the world. It just so happens that at this critical time, many people are speculating that this treasure meeting will not be able to be held, and it is even hard to say what will happen in the future.

"Let me think about it, you go and get busy first." Jing Shu sighed, and she still made some losses first.

The things that can be left in the fire are not afraid of the fire. Jing Shu simply flipped through them. Fortunately, Leng Yu had asked Leng Yu to take the medical books and some medicinal materials that Sun Simiao gave her to Yuezhou because of needs, so she kept Take it with you, as for the rest...

"All the medicines in the prescription have been burned out."

Ye Ying frowned, nothing else was important, but if Jingshu's commonly used medicine was in short supply... "Is there any hard-to-find medicine?"

"There are some, I have to find a way to tell Leng Yu." Jing Shu pressed her chest, wondering if there was still smoke and smoke left in the ruins after the fire or because she felt depressed about it, she coughed a few times, her face pale It was uglier before.

A hand quickly stroked her back and breathed, "Don't worry, you write a copy of the prescription and send it back to the villa, and ask the second brother to find someone for you."

Jing Shu pursed her lips. Although her health improved, the corpse poison and cold poison alternated repeatedly. She couldn't guarantee what would happen if there was no decoction to suppress the toxin in time. Those medicines were Wanhuagu and cold poison. It took two years to collect jade, and I could only find a few common ones when I searched temporarily, and it was difficult to get together a few rare medicinal materials in a short while.

After writing down the prescription, Jing Shu sighed slightly in her heart, and looked at the man beside her who wrote the letter with her. Although they left Hidden Sword Villa, they still had to rely on the power of the Ye family everywhere, and they didn't know that the people in the villa would how to think.She never thought that Ye Ying would completely cut off contact with the Ye family. It was because she had a hurdle in her heart that she couldn't overcome, but Ye Ying was too tired to accompany her when she was away from home.

Ye Ying didn't hear Jing Shu writing again, so Ye Ying asked, "Is it finished?"

"Ah."

Ye Ying thought for a while, and then said: "In the letter, tell your second brother what happened in Yuezhou, and ask him to write a letter in the name of Hidden Sword Villa to Tiance Mansion. Participating in the Famous Sword Conference, I have a lot of friendship with the Ye family, he is the commander of one side, and has many soldiers under him, tell him about the conspiracy of Tianyi Sect, and let him pay more attention to the movement of Nanzhao, it would be best if the war can be contained as soon as possible."

"Okay." Jing Shu lowered her head and wrote a long letter. At the end of the letter, she paused and said suddenly: "Aying, help me call Chu Mu and ask him to ask the accountant to come up with the account book. The attic can’t just be left like this, what needs to be repaired still needs to be repaired.”

Nodding her head, Ye Ying got up and went out to find someone. After he left, Jing Shu looked at the words at the end of the letter, picked up a pen and continued a few lines, her eyes darkened, and slowly wrote the signature.

When Ye Ying came up with the accountant, Jing Shu was sitting in front of the pile of messy things and tidying them up one by one. Seeing someone coming, she put down the things at hand and carefully counted the needed shopping materials. A lot has collapsed, and repairs will cost a lot of money.

Jing Shu and the accountant walked around the only remaining corridor on the Tianzi floor. The more the accountant remembered, the more frightened he became. He was not an old man from Hidden Sword Villa, so he naturally didn't know the master's talents in certain aspects. When you reach that finger, you can tell the specific number. Even if you call an old craftsman for many years, the difference will not be much different, right?

After Jingshu finished ordering the materials, the accountant calculated the price according to the market price, and quoted her the price: "Master, if you don't count the furnishings, the total is about 500 taels. Is the layout of the house still the same?"

This made Jing Shu a little bit troubled, not to mention Leng Yu's room full of jade and jade, just the bed, table and chairs in her room are mostly rare objects, and now they have been burned clean, and they can't reproduce it as before. She rubbed her forehead, "Let's keep it simple first."

The accountant fiddled with the abacus, and there was a lot of money up and down, and when he wrote it all down and left, Jing Shu couldn't help but clenched her fists full of gloom, "We must catch that villain and teach him a lesson." !"

Ye Ying comforted the disgruntled Jing Shu, "Can I go to the government to check on the situation?"

Seeing the mess all over the place, she sighed, she should pack up her things first and then think about whether or not the Treasure Fair should proceed.The collections in the Lanyue Building were originally mostly exotic flowers and plants, which could not withstand the fire. The Huanyan Grass that was originally scheduled to be auctioned on September [-]th was also burned into fly ash in the fire. It's really that the plan can't keep up with the changes.

"If Leng Yu knows, I'm afraid I will turn back halfway in anger." Jing Shu looked at the other basket of broken stones with a headache. These are his treasures. Leng Yu is a jade soul, and he loves jade the most. This is good, the jade can't stand the fire, it's shattered and broken, without any luster.

Ye Ying picked a piece of incomplete jade and stroked it in her hands. After a while, she also felt a little regretful. The natural texture of the jade has been destroyed. These are waste jade.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Jing Shu poured out all the broken jade and picked it up again. Chu Mu had ordered someone to wash the charcoal dust on the surface, but it still looked extremely gray and old, and it might be cracked again at any time. More scattered broken jade, "This one is not bad."

After receiving a jade stone handed by the woman, Ye Ying touched it carefully and nodded, "Maybe it was wrapped in something tight when it caught fire, so it was not damaged."

Except for this piece, nothing else was spared. Jingshu looked at the solitary golden nephrite. She had seen so many jades, and she could still distinguish the approximate types. "This should be gold silk jade, right?"

Ye Ying hummed lightly: "The quality is excellent."

I found a box and put it away, at least one piece was left. Compared with the burned buildings, these jade and herbs are the real huge loss. "Let's let this treasure meeting go."

Although helpless, there is no other way at present.

The attic was destroyed, and Ye Ying and Jing Shu temporarily lived in the wing room on the ground floor. Before the fire in the moon building, Chu Mu had already refused all merchants to stay, and even the business in the lobby was closed. It won't be open anymore.

In the evening, Chu Mu cautiously went upstairs to ask for instructions: "Girl, the business of the restaurant has been suspended. The younger one gave the rest of the staff a holiday, leaving only one long-term worker on duty. The two of you are back. You see, the younger one went outside. Arrange for meals to be delivered at regular intervals, or send a cook back to do it?"

Jing Shu pondered for a while, "Let's arrange a cook. The people who will start repairs here will also need food. Maybe two when they are busy."

"It's still a girl who is thoughtful, and the younger one will arrange staff." Chu Mu arched his hands, "Today's dinner may take a while, and the younger one will do it as soon as possible."

"It's okay, you worked hard."

Chu Mu secretly heaved a sigh of relief when such a big incident happened in Lanyue Tower, and he couldn’t even afford to repay it. Fortunately, Jing Shu didn’t pursue it, but it’s just a pity that everyone in the house nice one.

A day later, Ye Hui received a letter from Yangzhou. He got the news the next day that Lanyue Building caught fire. Ye Ying and Jing Shu didn't know if they had returned to Yangzhou.The person sent out to inquire about the details was still on the way, so the two returned, and sent back a thick stack of letters in a hurry.

"What did the godmother say in the letter?" Ye Qifei tried her best to tiptoe trying to read the words inside, but Ye Hui's expression became more and more serious.

Ye Hui patted Ye Qifei on the head, "Fei'er is good, something big happened in Jianghu, my second uncle is going to discuss with your father and fourth uncle, you go to Songtao Garden to talk to your grandparents first."

In the blink of an eye, Ye Qifei saw from his expression that something had happened, so she nodded obediently and went out accompanied by her maid.

The autumn day in the south of the Yangtze River is still warm. The old lady is chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall. In the courtyard, Ye Mengqiu is lying on the teacher's chair basking in the sun leisurely. He noticed something when he came out with the probe, "Little clever ghost, what are you doing hiding?"

Seeing that she was discovered, Ye Qifei didn't restrain herself, and ran to Ye Mengqiu with a smile, "Did Feier disturb Grandpa's rest?"
