Because Mu Tiankuo had sent people to help in advance, the people in the village had been evacuated at this moment, and there were almost no casualties.It was just because the wind was so strong that it was difficult to control the fire, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to extinguish it for a while.

Mu Tiankuo told everyone a few words, and then led Lu Jing and others straight to Lujiao Town.

The town and the burning village are indeed very close. If the fire cannot be controlled, as long as the wind direction changes, it will be a matter of time before it burns over.

When Mu Tiankuo and others arrived, the people in the town also got up. Some people took gongs and drums and beat on the street, reminding everyone to prepare for fire prevention, and at the same time organized strong labor to help put out the fire in neighboring villages.

"You guys go around the town to see if there is any place that is prone to fire, and help them take precautions in advance." Mu Tiankuo ordered to the accompanying guards.The wind is strong at night, and once sparks fly over and fall into a flammable place, it is easy to cause a second ignition point.

At this time, there was a man holding an iron basin in the crowd. When he saw Mu Tiankuo, he immediately raised the iron basin and put it on his head, then carefully left the crowd and ran into the alley.

The courtyard door of a family deep in the alley was suddenly knocked open.

In the yard, Ling'er was looking for pots and jars, planning to take them to help put out the fire, and Concubine Rong was also helping.

"Chongyang? Why are you in such a hurry? Is the fire coming?" Ling'er asked.

"No." Chongyang closed the courtyard door, and said in panic, "Guess who I saw?"

Concubine Rong asked, "Could it be Shen'er?"

"No." Chongyang hurriedly said: "I saw Mu Tiankuo, he was riding a horse with people, wandering around the town viciously, he must have come to arrest us."

Ling'er panicked when she heard the words, and asked, "Are you reading that right?"

"Yeah, did you read it wrong?" Concubine Rong asked, "Mu Tiankuo is the prince of Yao Kingdom, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

"Arrest people." Chongyang said: "It must be aimed at us."

Concubine Rong was also a little worried when she heard the words. There had been no news from Chu Chen since she arrived in Wangcheng.

Before Lu Jing left, he left two guards for them. One of them went out to help put out the fire, and the other stayed by the side all the time. Hearing this, he said, "Don't panic, I'll go outside and have a look."

"Don't go." Chongyang stopped him and said, "Who will protect Madam and Ling'er when you go?"

Chongyang said with a tragic face: "You take them to find a place to hide, it is really impossible, I will go find out the truth, if..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Mu Tiankuo strode in.

Chongyang has been thinking about Chu Chen every day these days, and he always recalls the scene of Mu Tiankuo threatening him before he left Dachu, so he has already regarded Mu Tiankuo as a villain in his heart.Now that the other party suddenly appeared, he immediately turned pale with fright, but subconsciously stood in front of Concubine Rong and Ling'er.

Mu Tiankuo glanced at him meaningfully, bowed his hands to Concubine Rong, and said, "My lord mother-in-law, my son-in-law is being polite."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

Especially for Chongyang, my jaw almost dropped from shock.

Afterwards, Lu Jing came in panting, and yelled, "Your Highness is walking in Lu's head, how can you find it so accurately?"

"I didn't find the place at first." Mu Tiankuo glanced at Chongyang, and said calmly: "But I vaguely heard someone arrange a lonely and fierce spirit, so I followed the sound and found it."

Chongyang: ...

Mu Tiankuo is indeed not an ordinary person, I hope he doesn't like to hold grudges.

The matter was urgent, and there was no time to elaborate, Lu Jing only picked up the key points and said a few words to Concubine Rong, so as not to make her feel uneasy.

"Is Shen'er nearby?" Concubine Rong asked.

"Yes, madam, don't worry, you will see His Highness soon." Lu Jing said.

Ever since Concubine Rong left the palace, she was no longer the empress of the palace in terms of identity, so everyone changed their name to her Madam, and in front of outsiders on weekdays, they all called her Madam Rong.

When Mrs. Rong heard that she was going to see Chu Chen, she was so happy that she almost shed tears.

Seeing that she was happy, Ling'er was also happy, and the master and servant hugged each other and were about to cry together.

Chongyang sniffed, only hated himself for being a man, and was embarrassed to cry.

But God knows how much he misses his Highness, and he doesn't know if His Highness has been wronged by Mu Tiankuo's side...

"Lu Jing, take someone to send your mother-in-law to the other garden first, and leave later after the fire is under control." Mu Tiankuo said.

Mrs. Rong heard the words and said hurriedly: "Don't be in a hurry, everyone is busy fighting the fire now, there is no need to send us out. It is still dark today, why don't you wait until dawn and after the fire is under control, everyone will come together Walk."

Although Mrs. Rong missed Chu Chen, she didn't want to cause trouble at this time.Mu Tiankuo thought for a while, this place is safe for the time being, even if the fire came, and someone was protecting him, he would still have time to leave, so he complied with the other party's wishes.

In another garden.

Chu Chen has been standing at the door watching the fire in the village.

Although he knew that Mu Tiankuo had a sense of proportion in his heart and that he should not encounter any danger, he still couldn't help worrying.

Mu Tian/Xing sat with him on the stone steps in front of the door, and said, "Sister-in-law, will you take good care of Brother Jiu?"

Chu Chen felt a little awkward when he suddenly asked him such a question, so he could only laugh and say, "He is the prince of a country, so why should I hurt him?"

"Can that be the same?" Mu Tian/Xing said: "I read from the scriptures that even if one person holds the world in his hands, it is not as good as having the heart of the person in the bed."

Chu Chen: ...

"You are so young, what do you see?" Chu Chen frowned.

Mu Tian/Xing doesn't like to be called young. Although he is not as tall as Mu Tiankuo, he is not short, but his baby face looks childish, so he is often treated like a child.

"I'm only half a year younger than Brother Jiu, and he's about to get married, am I still young?" Mu Tian/Xing refused to accept.

"You are more than him..." Chu Chen was taken aback when he heard this, and asked, "How come you are only half a year younger than him?"

Mu Tian/Xingdao: "He is Zhengyue, I am June, isn't it just half a year younger?"

Chu Chen had always heard that Mu Tian/Xing and Mu Tiankuo were the Queen's children, if they were half a year apart, it meant that the rumor was not true.So which of the two brothers is the queen's own son?

"Sister-in-law, look, it's dawn." Mu Tian/Xing pointed to the distant sky.

Chu Chen looked up, and the morning light really appeared on the horizon.

Immediately, there was a bang of thunder, as if a hole had been ripped open in the sky, and it rained heavily in an instant.

Mu Tian/Xing huddled and hid beside Chu Chen. After all, he held back and didn't have the nerve to sneak into Chu Chen's arms, but his whole body was trembling with fright from the thunder.

"After a night of thunder, it finally rained." Chu Chen stretched out his arms to embrace Mu Tian/Xing who was shaking badly, looked at the fire in the distance and said: "It's a bit late for the rain, otherwise you don't have to work too hard." Now."

Mu Tian/Xing looked into the distance following Chu Chen's gaze, and saw that the fire was "dying to death" in the pouring rain, and then gradually showed signs of decline. It is estimated that it will be completely extinguished by the rain in a short time.

Because the rain was too heavy, they couldn't go back to the house for a while, so the two sat on the porch to watch the rain.

After a while, the rainwater merged into a "creek" at the gate of the other garden, and the water flowed downstream along the terrain.

"Does it often rain so much here?" Chu Chen asked.

"Very rarely." Mu Tian/Xing Dao, "Especially when it rains and thunders, sometimes it doesn't happen once a year."

Chu Chen looked at the increasing amount of water in front of him, and said, "No wonder. If it is a place with a lot of rain, it is somewhat careless to choose such a terrain with the back of the mountain to build a garden. If the water is too heavy, it will not be uniform. The entire Bieyuan can be flushed for you."

"This other garden was built by the emperor's grandfather." Mu Tian/Xing said.

Chu Chen smiled awkwardly, and made amends: "The late emperor was wise and chose this treasured land near mountains and rivers."

"Father thinks that the geomantic omen of this place is not good, so he has never lived here." Mu Tian/Xing said.

Chu Chen laughed dryly, and said again: "Your Majesty is wise."

"Brother Jiu likes this place, he thinks it's clean, especially the hot spring pool." Mu Tian/Xingdao: "He came to see it once, so he took this garden away, and it took a lot of effort to repair it. It’s the first time bringing someone here.”

Chu Chen raised his eyebrows, secretly thinking that it was luck or misfortune to encounter such a thing when he came here for the first time.Probably for those people who were rescued by him in time, it was considered a great fortune. In this way, this Bieyuan is not considered a bad feng shui.

What's more, this trip also directly resolved Mrs. Rong's matter by mistake.

Chu Chen subconsciously touched his flat belly, thinking that they have gained something, right?

"Sister-in-law, look, the rain has turned yellow." Mu Tian/Xing said.

Chu Chen raised his eyes and saw that the water flow in front of the gate of Bieyuan suddenly became turbid from being clear at the beginning.He raised his eyes to look at the mountain above, and asked, "Is this mountain a rocky mountain or a dirt mountain?"

Mu Tian/Xing obviously didn't know the answer, so he turned his head to look at the guards not far away for help, one of them was probably familiar with the surrounding area, and said, "Return to Your Highness, there are rocky and earthy mountains around the Bieyuan, the one above should be They are dirt hills, and those behind the other garden are rock hills."

"What's the matter? Sister-in-law." Mu Tian/Xing Jian Chu Chen frowned and couldn't help asking.

"It seems that Your Majesty is wiser than your Ninth Brother." Chu Chen pulled Mu Tian/Xing up, looked at the increasingly muddy water on the ground, and said, "This place... Fengshui is indeed not very good."

Mu Tian/doesn't know what to do, so he looks at a loss.

in town.

The fire not far away has been completely extinguished by the rain.Although the fire was dangerous last night, due to the timely defense and rescue, the fire did not spread to the town, and no one was injured because of the fire.

Mu Tiankuo and Lu Jing sat in the canopy watching the heavy rain in front of them, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Of course, the main reason was that the rain came too suddenly, they were trapped here, and no one wanted to run back to the house at the risk of being drenched.The heavy rain on the left and right generally does not last too long, and it is estimated that it will stop after waiting.

"The reason why His Royal Highness asked Lu to help settle his wife was because he was unsure of your thoughts for a while, for fear that his wife would be wronged if he was caught in the middle." Lu Jing said broadly, "He told me that once you confirm I will tell you the matter as soon as I get your wish, and I have no intention of keeping it a secret."

Mu Tiankuo smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said, "Do you still need the help of Lu Xiaohou to smooth things over between Gu and the princess?"

"Lu Mou didn't mean anything malicious, just a kind reminder." Lu Jing said.

"Don't worry, little Marquis Lu, I won't get entangled in this matter with the crown princess." Mu Tiankuo said.

Lu Jing said helplessly: "His Royal Highness is very magnanimous, but sometimes magnanimity is not the solution to problems."

What's more, Lu Yu felt that Mu Tiankuo was very cautious.

Otherwise, there is no need to keep running on him...

"What do you want to say?" Mu Tiankuo asked.

"Sometimes, the more people care about a person, the more likely they are to worry about gains and losses. Once they fall into this kind of emotion, they will think wildly." Lu Jing said: "He trusts Lu so much, and it is also because of his love for Lu. I have never had the slightest thought of worrying about gains and losses.”

Mu Tiankuo was startled when he heard the words, and figured out something else from Lu Jing's words.

But before he had time to think about it carefully, he heard a strange sound coming from a distance.

The sound was different from thunder, it seemed muffled and heavy, and it seemed to come from a distant mountain...
