Chapter 159: Whoever Plays With Fire Will Get Burnt (1)

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“Why is there so much smoke here? What happened?” A confused exclamation was heard from behind, which was quite familiar to Murong Rou.

Murong Rou was frozen, and slowly turned around to find the speaker, only to see an old lady wearing a sapphire five longevity pattern sleeved over-dress and dark blue jade headband. It was the old Lady Song of Wu’an Marquis Mansion. She came up hurriedly surrounded by maids and nannies.

Looking at the blazing fire, the smoky pavilion, and the three flaming people who kept rolling in the fire, old Lady Song suddenly widened her eyes and exclaimed with shock, “Tianwen…Bai…”

Murong Rou laughed grimly. Bai? Seemed they were already very close! It turned out that she had long known that Song Tianwen had a mistress and secretly gave birth to an illegitimate child. But she not only didn’t tell Murong Rou but also being so close with the bastard behind her back. She and Song Tianwen were completely the same birds of a feather. They acted in collusion and kept Murong Rou in the dark for nine years.

“Why are you standing here in a daze? Go and save them!” The old lady Song snapped the orders, her eyes flashing with anxiety and worry.

“Yes, yes, yes ...” Like waking up from a dream, the maids and nannies hurried to the pavilion...

Song Tianwen knew all the disgraceful things she had done. If he survived, it would be her to strike a bad patch.

Murong Rou’s eyes flashed like lightning, and she stepped forward, blocking the way, “No one is allowed to approach the pavilion...”

“Madam!” Maids and nannies stopped and looked at Murong Rou in surprise. Why was she here?

“Murong Rou!” old Lady Song was also taken aback, flames flashing from the corner of her eyes. Suddenly, an idea scratched her head, she gnashed her teeth and said, “Did you set the fire?”

“No!” Murong Rou lied, remaining calm.

“Then why are you blocking the way? Get out of here immediately, for heaven’s sake, the fire is going to kill Tianwen!” Old Lady Song thundered angrily.

Murong Rou disagreed, “His lord is dying. Even if he is rescued, he will not live long. The fire in the pavilion is so strong that maids and nannies will definitely be burned if they rush in. It is not worth sacrificing so many people’s lives for a person who will die.”

“Shut up. Tianwen is the Wu’an Marquis, the lord of the mansion. These maids and the nannies are all his servants. They deserved their fates even if they were all burnt for him. Get out of the way!” old Lady Song snapped angrily and glared at the maids and nannies, “go and save lives!”

“Yes!” They nodded and rushed forward hastily. As they were going to cross Murong Rou, the latter rushed to the pavilion.

Murong Rou suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden in her sleeve and waved it wildly, “Stay away, or I’ll kill whoever comes in!”

The dagger was extremely sharp and stained with dried blood. It wielded back and forth rapidly among those maids and nannies. The faint scent of blood haunted the tip of the noses and made everyone shudder.

Old Lady Song was furious, “Murong Rou, how dare you do this...”

“Yes, I dare.” Murong Rou’s harsh voice thundered, barging her way through the crowd of the servants with a sharp dagger, cold lights flashed by.

These maids and nannies had lived in the inner residence for a long time and had never seen such a scene before. They were scrambling to dodge and did not know what to do. The front of the garden fell into chaos for an instant.
