An hour later, they should have just arrived at the palace gate.

Shen Yijia frowned. The old prince was in their hands. Only Lord Jing could attack the Fragrant Teahouse at this time.

But was it because she alerted someone last night or because Lord Jing found out about their plan?

For some reason, an ominous feeling rose in her heart.

“Young Madam, are you going out? I’ll prepare the carriage.” Thirty Thousand was guarding the gatehouse today.

Shen Yijia felt the uneasiness in her heart grow stronger and stronger. She shook her head and instructed, “Go to the palace immediately and see if you can send a message to your master. Even if you can’t, you have to get the news from inside immediately… No, you can’t…”

“You Yi, quick, go…” Shen Yijia was about to cry from anxiety, but she did not even know what she was worried about.

Thirty Thousand’s mouth twitched. He couldn’t do it!

However, seeing that Shen Yijia was in such a hurry that she was not in the mood to dwell on this matter, she also became worried. Only his master could make Young Madam like this.

Apart from Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen, You Yi had never appeared in front of anyone else. However, they often heard Shen Yijia call him by this name and guessed that she had an expert by her side.

There was a fluctuation in the air. Shen Yijia knew that You Yi had already gone, so she did not ask Thirty Thousand to prepare the carriage. She ran towards the Fragrant Teahouse.

Those people were innocent, but they were also witnesses. They could not die.

When Shen Yijia arrived, the periphery of the Fragrant Teahouse was filled with people. The fire had already been extinguished. There was only a frame left in the teahouse, and there were still sporadic sparks licking it.

From time to time, she could hear people discussing.

“Why would there be a fire out of nowhere?”

“Who knew that it would suddenly burn up before the door opened?”

“What about the people inside?” someone asked.

“They didn’t come out. None of them came out. Look over there. They were all dug up by the city guards. They’re still digging inside.”

Shen Yijia subconsciously looked in the direction the person was pointing. There were already many corpses that had been burned beyond recognition.

“Miss,” Mo Yuan reminded her.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips and squeezed through the crowd into the backyard.

The backyard was not spared either. The original small loft was burned to ashes, leaving only a few black stone pillars lying alone.

She remembered that her beautiful husband had said that the entrance was in the loft.

Without thinking, Shen Yijia moved the stone pillars away one by one.

Mo Yuan and Thirty Thousand also went forward to help, but they realized that it was a little difficult for the two of them to carry one. Then, they looked at their Young Madam.

The two of them, who had long seen Shen Yijia’s strength, were shocked.

The others who had never seen it before widened their mouths and widened their eyes when they saw a little girl moving such a huge stone pillar so easily.

“Is she even human?” they thought.

By the time everyone came back to their senses, Shen Yijia had already moved away the stone pillars and the remaining wooden beams in the loft.

The commander of the city guards shouted, “What are you doing? Don’t cause trouble here. Get out quickly.”

Shen Yijia was squatting there in a daze, ignoring him.

After moving it away, she saw a normal floor. There were no signs of an entrance at all.

Could it be that this wasn’t the case?

She got up to move the other one.

The commander frowned unhappily and waved his hand. “The few of you, throw them out.”

The people he pointed out were all shocked. “Boss, are you serious? That young lady’s strength…”

“Hurry up and go.” The commander expected better from someone and kicked each of them.

Helpless, the few of them could only carefully walk towards Shen Yijia and the other two.

Seeing this, Mo Yuan and Thirty Thousand put down the stone pillars in their hands and guarded Shen Yijia.

“There’s someone down there,” Shen Yijia suddenly said.

Everyone was stunned.

The commander reprimanded, “Nonsense. How can there be anyone underground?”

Shen Yijia raised her head and looked into the commander’s eyes. She said seriously, “There’s really someone here. I heard them shouting ‘let us out’. If you don’t believe me, listen for yourself.”

Because she was moving those stone pillars, Shen Yijia’s face darkened, but her eyes seemed to be glowing. Coupled with her words, everyone inexplicably felt a chill down their spines.

The commander felt his hair stand on end. He mustered his courage and gritted his teeth. “Where did this lunatic come from?”

Before he could finish, he saw the strange young lady’s expression change. He subconsciously swallowed the rest of his words.

Shen Yijia stopped thinking about hitting him. She looked around and picked up the guard closest to her. She pressed him to the ground and said faintly, “Listen, there’s really a sound.”
