In ancient times, I made a fortune by copying my family

Seeing that Ling Chu insisted on going out to face the people of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, Ning Chuyi didn't know what to say.

People outside knocked on the door, and Ling Chu led Xia Zhi to the door.

Ning Chuyi did not follow, but led Wei Feng and the others away from the other side of the courtyard wall.

Although he brought people to put out the fire, if people saw him in Lingchu's house, there was no telling what rumors would spread.

After the door opened, the person leading outside was Cao Hongxin, the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division.

Seeing Ling Chu coming out with two maids, the people outside were stunned.

Cao Hongxin frowned even more, "Where are your adults?"

"Sir, this is my house."

Cao Hongxin glanced up and down in surprise. It really surprised him that such a little girl lived in such a big house.

"What's going on in your house? Why did the water suddenly break out in the middle of the night? Can you afford it if it causes a fire next to it?" Cao Hongxin has been having a hard time recently due to family matters.

After patrolling a large circle at night, the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were looking for a place to rest. Unexpectedly, they suddenly saw the water flowing on Qintai Street and hurried over.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he ran nearby, he was hit by a sudden heavy rain.

Although the fire was extinguished by the rain and they didn't need to take action, he and his men ran so far and were caught in the heavy rain. It was inevitable that everyone felt resentful.

Facing their anger, Ling Chu couldn't get angry.

These people came all the way to work as firefighters for her. Although they didn't help, they had good intentions after all.

Just as he was about to let Xia Zhi take some hard-earned money to express his gratitude, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves running towards him.

Looking up subconsciously, Ling Chu raised his eyebrows in surprise.

The person who came turned out to be Ning Chuyi, followed by Wei Feng and several other Jinyi guards.

Didn't he leave with someone? Why did he suddenly appear again?
Seeing Ning Chuyi, not only Ling Chu was surprised, Cao Hongxin was also surprised.

He hurriedly put up a smile and stepped forward to greet him, "I've met Mr. Ning. How come you're here so late?"

Ning Chuyi did not dismount, but just sat on the horse and said coldly, "I just saw a fire here, come and take a look."

"Master Cao, what did you find out and why did you get lost?"

Cao Hongxin cried out in his heart, why did he suddenly encounter this murderous god.It's just an encounter. When will the Jin Yiwei ask about their Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division?

He cursed in his heart, but Cao Hongxin did not dare to show any clues on his face. He could only apologize and said with a smile, "Sir, I just came here and I am asking about the reason for the leak."

Afraid that Ning Chuyi might ask something else and he wouldn't be able to answer it, he hurriedly turned his head and shouted at Ling Chu who was behind him, "I didn't see that the master is waiting, why don't you come over quickly and answer me."

Ling Chu glanced at him, said nothing, and walked straight over to Ning Chuyi to greet him, "I've met you, sir."

Ning Chuyi lowered her eyes and glanced down, then got off her horse and extended her hand to help her, "Miss Ling, there is no need to be polite. Is it your house that is in trouble?"

Ling Chu saw that he was asking a serious question, so he could only nod his head seriously, "Exactly."

"Do you know the reason for the leakage?"

"I haven't looked carefully yet, but I smelled the smell of kerosene at the place where the fire started. If I didn't guess, someone should have set the fire deliberately."

Cao Hongxin on the side quietly looked back and forth between Ning Chuyi and Ling Chu in surprise.

Why didn't he know that this cold-faced murderer had such a gentle side?
What is the identity of this Miss Ling?

Cao Hongxin was muttering in his heart, but his heart trembled when he heard Ling Chu's words.He originally thought that the fire was caused by someone accidentally knocking over the candle, but he didn't expect that someone deliberately set the fire on fire.

"Master Cao, there is someone under the emperor's feet who dares to deliberately set fire. You, the military commander of the five cities, must search carefully to see who is so bold.

Just in case the person who did it burns more than one family, and the emperor asks for the blame, you, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, have a responsibility that you can't shirk. "

Cao Hongxin reached out and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Don't worry, sir, my subordinates will search carefully."

He turned around and shouted angrily at the subordinates beside him, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Go check it out quickly."

With Ning Chuyi watching from the side, the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division did not dare to have any objections and quickly searched around the burning courtyard wall.

Ning Chuyi only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.

Seeing Cao Hongxin waiting respectfully aside, he ignored him.Instead, he asked Ling Chu, "Miss Ling, when will Master Xuan Yi return to the capital? The emperor has been thinking about inviting him to the palace to preach."

"Master has always disliked the restraints of the world. No one knows where he is wandering around at the moment. I am also looking forward to his return to Beijing."

Originally, Ning Chuyi didn't want people to misunderstand, so he took Wei Feng and the others over the wall and left.

Ling Chu was still wondering why he left and came back so suddenly, but now that he specifically mentioned her master, she understood his intention.

He was worried that Commander Cao would embarrass her, so he specifically pointed out her identity.

Cao Hongxin was really surprised, "So Miss Ling is a disciple of Master Xuan Yi?"

Ning Chuyi had specifically pointed out her identity, and Ling Chu did not deny it. He nodded and said, "Exactly."

Most people in the court knew that the emperor had always wanted to invite Master Xuan Yi to be the national advisor, and Cao Hongxin's attitude towards Ling Chu suddenly changed.

He was impatient before, but now he has a smile on his face, "It turns out that he is a disciple of Master Xuan Yi. No wonder Miss Ling can afford to live in such a big house."

Ling Chu glanced at Ning Chuyi apologetically. She could afford to live in such a big house not because of her master, but because of his blessing.

It's just that she couldn't say this clearly to Commander Cao, lest it get out and cause unnecessary trouble to Master Ning.

What Ling Chu didn't expect was that Cao Hongxin glanced at Ning Chuyi and then asked her cautiously, "Miss Ling, can I ask you a favor?"

Seeing that Ning Chuyi and Ling Chu both looked towards him, Cao Hongxin smiled and said bravely, "That's right, I heard that if something is missing, I can use hexagram to find it.

I lost some things at home a few days ago and I can't find them. I wonder if I can ask Miss Ling to help me take a look? "

It turned out that he was looking for something to tell fortunes from her. Ling Chu didn't refuse, "Yes, that's okay. As for whether I can find it, I won't know until I go see it."

Although Ling Chu didn't guarantee that he would be found, Cao Hongxin wasn't upset either.I thought to myself that a disciple of Master Xuan Yi should be somewhat capable.

Ning Chuyi just listened quietly. Cao Hongxin was the commander of the Military and Horse Department in Xicheng. It would be a good thing if Ling Chu could make friends with him.

If she helps Commander Cao, he will definitely instruct the people of the Five Cities Military and Horse Department to pay more attention to the safety near her house, which will also provide an extra layer of protection.

"Sir, we found an arrowhead." The people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division searched around the place where the fire broke out. Although they smelled the smell of kerosene, they found no evidence, except for a burned arrowhead.
