Yun Heng looked troubled, but he stubbornly stopped in front of him, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for my rudeness. If anything happens, you are the only hope of the Hou Mansion. I can't let you in."

"What's going on!" Su Zi looked at the billowing black smoke, loosened his fingertips, and the newly bought Anshen Incense fell to the ground.

"Madam...Baiji..."

Su Zi's scalp was numb, and she ignored the newly bought incense, pushed aside the crowd in front of her, and squeezed towards the door.

As soon as he reached the door, he ran into the man's arms.

Su Zi raised his eyes, looked at the man who was smoked into coal in front of him, looked at his features, carefully identified his identity, and immediately cried, "Ye Ming...how could this happen? Why was there a fire in the house!"

Ye Ming shook his head. He was choked by the thick smoke for a long time, and his throat hurt badly. "I don't know. This fire is so weird. It was so intense when it first started, and we didn't even have a chance to react."

Su Zi's eyes were panicked, and he pulled his sleeves and asked, "What about Madam and Baiji?"

Ye Ming lowered his eyes, not daring to look at her, "The fire started in Chengyuan. When we arrived, there was already a sea of ​​fire inside."

"Madam...is still inside."

Su Zi felt his head buzzing and couldn't think of anything, so he just rushed inside.

"Su Zi!" Ye Ming stopped her. The dignified eight-foot-tall man's eyes were now red and his tone was hoarse, "Be obedient, there are Uncle Qi and the others inside, don't go and cause trouble!"

"Let go! I'm going to save my wife!" Su Zi beat him, struggled with all his strength, and even opened his mouth and bit the back of his hand hard.

Feeling a heartbreaking pain on the back of his hand, Ye Ming gritted his teeth, hugged Su Zi hard, and said loudly, "Even if you go, nothing will change!"

"So what?" Su Zi let go of his hand, her face full of tears, "If Madam leaves, I would rather go with you!"

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, and the strength in his hand relaxed a little.

Su Zi seized the gap, broke free from his restraints, and ran towards the house.

She is the lady's slave, both in life and in death.

"elder brother!"

There was an exclamation from behind, and Xie Li turned around like a puppet on strings, his eyes dull.

Xie Wanzhou heard the news and hurried over. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw the tragic situation in front of his house. His legs went weak and he almost knelt on the ground.

Lian Yan had been staying by her side, and when he saw this, he quickly reached out and held her in his arms.

"How could there be a fire at home?" Xie Wanzhou walked quickly to a few people, his eyes were a little dazed. Finally, he realized something was wrong, "...Brother, where is mother?"

Xie Li's eyes turned red, he looked back at the house and whispered, "It's still in there."

Xie Wanzhou blinked his eyes, his ears roaring, "Inside...are you still in there?"

Xie Li nodded gently, tears falling one after another like broken beads.

Xie Wanzhou stared blankly at the fire in front of him and subconsciously walked forward.

"Wanzhou." Lian Yan stopped her with a look of disapproval in his eyes, "You wait here, I will bring my mother-in-law out safely."

Xie Wanzhou couldn't hear clearly what he was saying, and his vision was blurred by tears.

Lian Yan handed her over to Song Huixin and whispered, "Thank you, second sister-in-law."

After saying that, Lian Yan walked away and entered the Hou Mansion alone.

Xie Wanzhou recalled her mother's daily teachings and suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at her family beside her and said softly, "We can't enter Chengyuan, so it's better to put out the fire outside." "Yes, we can't just sit back and wait for death." It looks like nothing is bad." Liu Fanyin nodded heavily, handed Xie Yinyin in his arms to Mrs. Zhang, and whispered, "Let's go carry water too!"

Xie Li nodded, pushed Song Huixin to Granny Yuan's side, and whispered, "Huixin is pregnant, please take care of her."

Grandma Yuan hurriedly responded, "Don't worry, I'm outside. Go put out the fire!"

Seeing the younger member of the family leaving, Granny Yuan clasped her hands together and prayed constantly. With tears on her cheeks, she whispered, "Please protect me from all the gods and goddesses and keep my daughter safe..."

Song Huixin bit her lower lip and looked at the tall and thin figure in the distance with tears in her eyes.

She didn't want to experience the feeling of losing a loved one again.

Unfortunately, before a few people could suppress the fire, the door suddenly collapsed, and the house in the mansion also collapsed. The fire spread and thick smoke rose into the sky.

"Quick, come out!"

Yun Heng, regardless of etiquette and dignity, rushed to the mansion and dragged out all the masters who had just entered.

The falling board almost hit Xie Li. If he hadn't hid immediately, he might not have been able to get out.

Another carriage stopped in front of the mansion, and the person who came moved very quickly. Before everyone could react, a wisp of moonlight had already rushed to the front.

There was a flash of white in front of his eyes. With quick eyes and quick hands, Xie Li grabbed his sleeve and shouted, "Shen Ji, you can't go in!"

Shen Ji turned around, his eyes were scarlet, his face was pale, his chest was rising and falling violently, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Let go."

In his memory, Shen Ji had never been so out of control.

Xie Li was startled by his appearance, but he never let up his strength. He gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Ji, the situation is critical now. I can't just watch and watch something happen to you again."

Shen Ji's face was calm, he lowered his eyes, his eyes fell on Xie Li's hand, and he said coldly, "Let go."

All he seemed to do was repeat this sentence.

Frightened and angry, Xie Li could no longer hold back his temper and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Don't make any more trouble. You are not the only one who is willing to die for your mother. In the current situation, I can never let you in again." !”

Shen Ji felt that everything in front of him was dark, without any light, and he couldn't clearly see the faces of the people in front of him. He just kept saying, "Let go."

"Shen Ji! You are simply..."

"Please...let me find her..."

Xie Li paused and stared at him blankly, his eyes full of surprise.

Without waiting for Xie Li's reply, he heard a loud bang in the Hou Mansion. It was already ignited, and the objects in the mansion spontaneously ignited, and the fire turned red.

At the critical moment, Uncle Qi and Zuo Yan escaped in a hurry. Seeing that they were helpless, Zeng Tianya had no choice but to lead the people out.

The further inside, the stronger the fire became. Lian Yan could not get close to Chengyuan, but he met Su Zi who was determined to rush into the sea of ​​​​fire.

Lian Yan wanted to save her, but Su Zi refused to obey and was determined to die. Lian Yan had no choice but to knock her out and carry her out.

Everyone in the Hou Mansion stood outside, except for the people from Chengyuan.

Shen Ji knew that there was nothing he could do to save the day. Looking at the charred plaque, he felt a fishy sweetness welling up in his throat. The corner of his mouth twitched a few times and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Shen Ji!" Xie Li had tears in his eyes and felt severe pain in his heart, but he had to help the person in front of him first.

"Why...it's just a little bit close...it's obviously just a little bit close!" Shen Ji almost collapsed and couldn't hold on anymore. He bent his knees and knelt on the ground, roaring at the top of his lungs, tears falling down, and his eyes full of despair.
