Chapter 107
He Wanying winked at the shopkeeper, wanting him to deny the boy's words, but shopkeeper He ignored her.

He knew in his heart that there were all witnesses and evidences, and this was not something they could deny if they wanted to.

Xiao Jinyue turned to Commander Cao, "Master Cao, I want to sue He Wanying, the owner of Qingshan Shop, because she hated us for buying Chenji Silk and Satin Shop, and secretly ordered the shopkeeper and the boy to set fire to our shop. Please, Mr. Cao, They were sent to Dali Temple for punishment."

Commander Cao came to the shop with that girl Xiao this morning. After watching the excitement for so long, he still doesn't know why the shop caught fire in the middle of the night.

He was also extremely dissatisfied with the arsonists in his heart. Fortunately, there was not much wind last night, and it was dry today. If the shops on the whole street were burned, causing a lot of property damage and casualties, and alarming the court, he, a soldier of the West City The commander is bound to be held accountable by the emperor.

With a dark face, he walked over to He Wanying and the shopkeeper, and said with a serious face, "Cao just happened to overhear your conversation when he was inspecting. Now that there are all witnesses and evidence, the two of you should come to Dali with me." Let's go to the temple."

He Wanying's face turned pale when she heard this, remembering that the last time she entered Dali Temple, her aunt's attitude towards her changed. Now that her cousin has not agreed to the marriage, she cannot enter Dali Temple again.

She winked at the shopkeeper next to her and asked him to take care of the matter himself.

Shopkeeper He felt sad. He usually racked his brains to manage the shop, and his business was booming.

This time, if the eldest girl hadn't made a promise with the wife and the master that she had a way to buy the Chen Ji silk and satin shop next door at a low price, the mansion would not have given her the management of the shop.

But now it's a good thing, other people's shops are not bought, but my own shop has been burned to the ground.

It's really a loss for the lady and the soldiers.

But that's not counting, not only will he lose his job now, but he will also be pushed out by the eldest girl to help her take the blame.

He shouldn't have listened to her, a girl who hasn't grown up yet, how can there be any clever tricks, shopkeeper He is really regretful at this time.

The eldest girl pushed him to take the blame, so he was naturally unwilling. He opened his mouth to say that he was not the mastermind, but he couldn't say that when he thought that his family still had to live in the mansion.

He knew very well who the eldest girl and the madam were. If he hadn't picked the eldest girl out today, his family would definitely not be able to stay in the mansion, and they might even be in danger of their lives.

Shopkeeper He's face was ashen. For the sake of his family, he had to take down the case of arson.

"Master Cao, the arson incident has nothing to do with my eldest daughter. It was the younger one who first took a fancy to Chen Ji Silk Shop, but didn't want to be intercepted by Miss Xiao halfway. I was so angry that this made the shopkeeper splash on Chen Ji Silk Shop in the middle of the night. I poured kerosene and wanted to set it on fire."

Xiao Jinyue glanced at the seemingly loyal shopkeeper He, needless to say, she also knew that shopkeeper He came out out of desperation for the lives of his family.

Although she was irritated by He Wanying's repeated and repeated methods, and wanted to press her to death, it was a pity that no evidence of her crime was caught, and she could only watch helplessly as shopkeeper He resisted the guilt.

"My son just went to the Yamen to file for the red deed yesterday. Who dared to burn down the shop that our Nan'an Prince's Mansion just bought?"

Everyone turned their heads in search of the sound, and saw a handsome and noble man turning over from his horse with an angry expression on his face.

Needless to say, this is naturally the Prince of Nan'an.

He Wanying's eyes shrank, what's going on, didn't that bitch Xiao Jinyue buy the shop, why is it still related to Nan'an Palace?

Shopkeeper He was terrified, seeing the noble girl getting out of the carriage while holding the servant girl's hand, her complexion turned even paler. Isn't that the girl who followed Miss Xiao yesterday?

It turned out to be the princess of Nan'an Palace.

He committed the crime of arson and burned down the shop of Nan'an Palace, but he still survived?

The little guy behind Shopkeeper He was so frightened that his calves were trembling, and the words of Prince Nan'an rang in his mind over and over again.

The little guy suddenly shuddered, and stammered towards Shopkeeper He with a white face, "Shopkeeper, the store deed...the store deed..."

Shopkeeper He seemed to have thought of something, and staggered on his feet. If it wasn't for another boy next to him reaching out to help him, he would probably have fallen to the ground.

"It's over, it's over..."

Princess Minghua came here with Xiao Jinyue earlier, and saw that the shop she just bought yesterday was burned, and was wronged by the people in the clothing store next to her, saying that their shop caught fire first, which caused the clothing store to be burned.

Princess Minghua was worried that Xiao Jinyue would be bullied, so she hurried back to the mansion to find her elder brother.

She didn't know what happened later, so she pulled Xiao Jinyue's sleeve and asked with a frown, "Jinyue, what happened to them?"

Xiao Jinyue didn't know what happened to them at first, but when her eyes touched the burned shop next to her, her mind turned, "Shopkeeper He, what happened to the shop deed, could it be that it was also burned down?"

What, the store deed was burned?
He Wanying suddenly turned her head, and asked shopkeeper He anxiously, "Treasurer He, where is the store deed? Hurry up and bring it to me."

After a long while, shopkeeper He opened his mouth with difficulty, "Girl, the store deed is in the shop, I haven't taken it out, it's burned..."

He Wanying's head buzzed, her voice became sharp.

"What? Burned out? What about the title deed?"

"Not anymore."

In desperation, He Wanying slapped shopkeeper He across the face.

No longer caring about his image, he opened his mouth and cursed viciously, "You're a good-for-nothing bastard, why don't you be burned to death together."

Prince Nan'an was feeling that the shop was burned and his face was dull. Seeing that shopkeeper He was beaten, he had no sympathy at all, shook his head and clicked his tongue twice, and then said coolly, "The shop deed and land deed have been burned. If you can't steal the chicken, you will lose the rice, and you will be punished."

"As far as I know, this tailor shop has not registered a red deed in the yamen. The shop is burned down, but the land is still there. Now the land belongs to the yamen."

My younger sister wanted to open a shop. To be on the safe side, Nan'an Shizi went to the yamen yesterday to apply for a red deed, and checked the shops around Chenji silk and satin shop by the way.

He Wanying, as well as the shopkeeper and clerks around her all had ashen faces.

Prince Nan'an was not so kind to take their feelings into consideration, and continued, "Since the land belongs to the yamen, it is not difficult for this prince to buy it."

Prince Nan'an smiled and said to Xiao Jinyue and Princess Minghua, "Aren't you going to open a shop together? The land will be given to you when this prince buys it."

"It just so happens that your silk and satin shop is a bit smaller. Since it has already been burned, it will be merged with this piece of land and re-planned to build a bigger shop."

Princess Minghua heard what his brother said, and the unhappiness of the shop being burned immediately dissipated, his eyes lit up, and he said to Xiao Jinyue, "Brother is right, Jinyue, then it's settled, we will merge the two pieces of land into one." , to build a bigger and more impressive shop."

He Wanying's eyes darkened when she heard this, and a fishy sweetness rushed into her throat.
