Luck in the heavens starts from the Red Mansion

Xue Pan, who was also awakened, stood in the courtyard of Lixiangyuan, trembling.

Especially when I saw the sky dyed red by the flames, I felt indescribable shock and fear.

He knew the exact location where the fire rose.

Recently, I have been hanging out with the green-skinned gangsters on Ningrong Street, and the direction of expansion is exactly that area.

There, there is a huge official warehouse near the city wall, just on the bank of the artificial river.

Naturally, he would not think that the fire that suddenly broke out in the official warehouse was accidentally lit.

Next to it is the river, and the official warehouse is equipped with all kinds of fire-extinguishing equipment. As long as you react immediately and organize enough manpower to put out the fire, it can play a key role.

But look at the intensity of the fire, tsk tsk...

All the bastard things he had done in Aurous Hill could not be compared to this one.

This is the kind of person who really greets the current emperor and cabinet ministers in the face without being polite.

"Come here, please notify the guards outside and brace yourself to guard the door!"

After watching for a while, his mood gradually calmed down, and Xue Pan did not forget to shout at the maid next to him.

Naturally, the woman guarding the door sent a message, and there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then there was silence again.

"Where did the fire start? It's so amazing?"

At this time, Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai got up and were surprised to see the scene outside.

"The official warehouse near the city wall!"

Xue Pan explained: "Don't worry, mother, no matter how big the fire is, it won't spread here!"

"What a sin! The official warehouse is transporting supplies by water. I'm afraid prices in the capital are going to rise!"

Although Aunt Xue doesn't know much about business, her family is in business and she is still quite keen.

"This matter will naturally be dealt with by the court, we don't need to worry!"

Xue Pan's tone was indifferent, because he knew the inside story and was a little bit more unhappy with the court.

Xue Baochai rolled his eyes, how smart she was, and immediately heard a different meaning from Xue Pan's tone, but it was difficult for her mother to ask in person.

The family stood in the courtyard and watched for a while, and then returned to the main hall of Lixiangyuan together.

If something like this happens, the entire capital may be alarmed. How can they sleep?

Aunt Xue didn't know what she thought of. She looked frequently in the direction of Rongqing Hall. She obviously knew that Rongqing Hall should be quite busy at this time, but she didn't know what the old lady and the others discussed.

Taking advantage of Aunt Xue's absence, Xue Baochai asked in a low voice: "Brother, you seem to have an unusual reaction to the fire in the official warehouse!"

Xue Pan smiled awkwardly, having a sister who was too smart really put him under a lot of pressure.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense outside, this matter is probably not a big deal!"

"It should be something that some unworthy guy was exposed and jumped over the wall in a hurry!"

"It's going to be chaotic outside for a while, and I don't plan to go out in the next few days!"

"Really, that's a great feeling!"

Xue Baochai smiled softly. It was obvious that Xue Pan still had something to say, but she did not press him.

In terms of human relations and sophistication, she still knows how to be measured.

At this time, the benefits of the Xue family taking shelter in the Rong Mansion were revealed.

No matter what happens outside, Rongfu will be at the forefront so that the Xue family can safely survive the possible harassment and bad environment.

"of course it's true!"

Xue Pan promised: "Anyway, it's uneasy outside, so it's good to stay in the house!"

I just don't know if Brother Huan's arrangements have any effect?

That night, almost the entire capital did not sleep well, and the fire in Guancang continued to burn until dawn.

With the cooperation of many government officials and the urgently recruited Ding Zhuang, they put out the fire through various means and finally suppressed the fire, at least it would not spread to other places.

At the same time, the joint law enforcement teams of Jinyi Mansion, Shuntian Mansion Office, and Dali Temple surrounded the residence of Ma Yuan, the right servant of the Ministry of Revenue.

No one answered the door, so the only way in was to climb the wall.

Then, all three families were shocked by the tragic scene in the mansion.

Entering Ma Yuan's mansion, the bodies of dead maids and servants were everywhere.

Judging from the bleeding from their orifices and their blue and purple faces, it was obvious that they all died from poisoning.

As for Ma Yuan himself, as well as his family members and children, they all disappeared.

Also missing at the same time were the guards at Ma Yuan Mansion. None of these guys fell dead.

The news came back to the palace, and Emperor Jinhe was furious. He immediately ordered three law enforcement teams to quickly find Ma Yuan and his family members, and they wanted to see their bodies alive and dead.

At this moment, a confession from Jinyi Mansion was delivered to the current desk.

"Bastard, bastard!"

After reading the complete confession, he was furious now. If the men sent by the Supreme Emperor had not arrived in time, he would have immediately issued a wanted order for Ma Yuan and his entire family.

Then, the confession was sent to the Supreme Emperor immediately, which also aroused the emperor's anger.

The content of the confession was very simple, and it revealed one piece of information, an astonishing piece of information!

Ma Yuannai is an important member of the White Lotus Sect and a member of the core high-level!

Because he showed outstanding talent in reading when he was young, the White Lotus Sect's senior leaders devoted all their efforts to train him. As expected, the hard work paid off, and Ma Yuan was successfully admitted to the second list of Jinshi at a young age.

It's a coincidence that Ma Yuan and Lin Ruhai are Jinshi in the same class!

The White Lotus Sect later spent a lot of manpower and material resources to help Ma Yuan successfully ascend to the position of Right Minister of Tobe.

If it continues to develop, Ma Yuan will become one of the six ministers, and may even enter the cabinet.

Who told Mr. Li Ge, a fellow from the same place, to favor this guy so much and keep promoting him?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Mr. Li Ge obviously regards Ma Yuan as his successor.

During this period, the White Lotus Sect also relied on Ma Yuan's influence, and its development momentum in the local area was quite rapid, especially in Ma Yuan's hometown, which was almost uniform.

All we can say is that Jia Huan’s luck is really not bad!

Randomly sending people over to investigate, not only were they not exposed, but they also found out something.

Otherwise, if the local White Lotus Sect knew about it, his situation would be in danger.

Not to mention anything else, the group of experts trained by the White Lotus Sect, even the Rongguo Mansion in its heyday, did not dare to directly confront them head-on, and there was no chance of winning.

Taking advantage of Ma Yuan's official position, the White Lotus Sect not only developed rapidly among the people of Lu, but also gradually placed many people in the officialdom.

In particular, the Cangchang Yamen, the largest one owned by the Ma Yuan family, has many elite White Lotus sect members in it, and they have become high-ranking official officials in a dignified manner.

As mentioned before, for example, the Cangchang Yamen and the Water Transport Yamen are very easy to install some related households through the back door.

There is plenty of money and opportunities there, but promotion is not easy. It is the best place for related households to settle.

The White Lotus Sect has arranged many capable people to join the Cangchang Yamen. Naturally, they are not just looking for benefits. They have greater ambitions and goals.

This was also the main reason why Mr. Zheng was forced to oppose the Cangchang Yamen after he ran away from office and targeted Cangchang Yamen. Cangchang Yamen could not allow outsiders to enter.

It's just that Ma Yuan didn't expect that the second political master, who had always been honest and peaceful, would be dissatisfied with his arrangements and launched an impeachment offensive.

Naturally, Ma Yuan would not remain indifferent. Since he entered the officialdom, he has been secretly supported by the White Lotus Sect, and openly favored by Mr. Li Ge. It can be said that things have gone smoothly. How can he withstand the tossing of Ning Rong's second house?

As a result, the mutual attack and impeachment mode naturally started!

However, he didn't expect Jia Zhen of Ning Mansion to be so shameless that she would send her son to find trouble for her younger son.

Needless to say, the ending ended with Jia Rong, the heir to the Ning Mansion, being seriously injured and almost losing his life.

Just kidding, the guards around Ma Yuan's youngest son are all experts from the White Lotus Sect. How could they be done by a group of servant guards from the Ning Mansion?

Who would have known that Jia Zhen would go crazy and go out to find trouble herself.

What happened after that became very clear. Jia Zhen sent people to cause trouble, which seriously affected Ma Yuan's business, and also affected some legitimate businesses of the White Lotus Sect.

What happened next made Ma Yuan feel a little unprepared.

Jia Zhen shamelessly started a rumor campaign, but there were some things that Ma Yuan himself couldn't explain to others. For example, where did he have so many good people in the world?

Who would have known that just when the rumors were getting more and more intense, the Jinyi Mansion would come forward to investigate.

Ma Yuan knew immediately that he might have been exposed, but the court had no clear evidence.

He was also a ruthless man, and he immediately transferred a group of elite soldiers from the White Lotus Sect headquarters to Beijing, preparing to do great things in the capital.

But he didn't expect that a group of green-skinned gangsters from Ningrong Street would now target the White Lotus Sect's stronghold outside the capital.

If someone comes to look for trouble, the masters of the White Lotus Sect in the stronghold will naturally teach him a lesson and easily defeat him and scare him away.

I don’t know whether the other party realized something was wrong or was unwilling to do so, so he came back to make trouble within a few days.

Although the number of guys who came to find trouble this time was not large, their strength was quite good. They were all at the level of martial arts masters, and the average White Lotus cultist in the stronghold couldn't do it.

There was no other way. The top master of the White Lotus Sect who was stationed in the stronghold had no choice but to take action himself.

But an accident occurred again. Just as the two families were fighting in full swing, a group of Jinyi Mansion troops suddenly came and captured the top master of the White Lotus Sect who was stationed in the stronghold.

After Ma Yuan got the news, he naturally knew that he would be exposed soon.

He had heard about Jinyi Mansion's methods and was quite afraid of them. He knew that the captured top masters of the White Lotus Sect might not be able to withstand various torture instruments.

We have no choice but to evacuate quickly!

It is estimated that Ma Yuan's youngest son was unwilling to give up, so he took advantage of the opportunity to evacuate and directly led people to settle the score with Jia Zhen.

If Jia Zhen hadn't been struggling too much, how could there have been so many unexpected changes and she had to leave in a hurry?

This was the complete confession. After reading it, the current emperor and the Supreme Emperor were so angry that they trembled and almost exploded.

A slap in the face, really a slap in the face.

How could they possibly know that the senior leaders of the White Lotus Sect had reached the high position of Right Minister of Hube?

The face of the court was almost lost this time.

If word spreads, both the court and the emperor will become the laughingstock of the world.
