Prince Rong interrupted sternly: "In order not to arouse other people's suspicion, I will also light Xiang'er's room on fire."

Xiang'er is his and Princess Rong's biological daughter.

His subordinates have followed Prince Rong for more than ten years and have done all kinds of bad things. They were a little hesitant at first, but seeing how determined Prince Rong was, they didn’t ask any more questions, "Yes, Prince."

In Prince Rong's Mansion, Princess Rong always liked the Zhou family's beauty cream. When she heard that the shopkeeper of the Zhou family was here, she immediately sent someone to entertain her.

Mr. Li was still upset about being cuckolded, and because he resented Prince Rong, he stopped controlling Du Wanchun and his party and turned a blind eye.

Du Wanchun and Han Yan'er received the invitation, changed their clothes and went to Prince Rong's Mansion.

Wei Xun continued to pretend to be a servant and secretly searched for Zhou Feng in Mr. Li's house.

Although Princess Rong had a fierce temper, she was still kind-hearted. She not only prepared a large table of wine and food at home, but also came to the door to greet Du Wanchun in person.

"Shopkeeper Du, you're here, please come in quickly." Princess Rong, with a smile on her face, sent three or four maids to lead them into the house.

Du Wanchun walked beside Princess Rong and looked at her silently. ?.?????.???

Princess Rong is also nearly forty years old, but her face does not look old. She probably uses a lot of beauty cream on weekdays.

Princess Rong took her hand and said, "Shopkeeper Du, why do you have time to come to our Beidi Kingdom?"

Du Wanchun smiled and replied: "I want to come to Beidi Country and see if I can open a rouge shop in Yangcheng like ours in Cheng'an County."

Princess Rong was overjoyed, "It would be great if we could open a rouge shop in Yangcheng. On weekdays, I ask my servant to ride a fast horse to Cheng'an County to buy it. Every time I go there, I have to go through customs and wait. Not to mention ten days and half a month, it will cost a lot more money."

Du Wanchun nodded, "Yes, if a rouge shop opens here, it will be much more convenient for ladies to buy facial cream."

Princess Rong was very happy and asked excitedly: "Shopkeeper Du, do you have any promising shops?"

Du Wanchun thought deeply, "I haven't seen it yet. I just arrived at Mr. Li's house yesterday."

"Master Li..." Princess Rong thought to herself, and couldn't help but think of her goddaughter.

Her face darkened.

Du Wanchun stopped and changed the subject: "Why didn't you see Prince Rong today?"

Princess Rong quickly smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to do and I am out of town today."

Du Wanchun's eyes narrowed slightly after hearing this, she rolled her eyes and said, "That's such a pity."

"There will be another opportunity in the future. Shopkeeper Du has prepared the wine and food. Come in and have a meal first." Princess Rong welcomed her into the house.

After lunch, Princess Rong stayed with Du Wanchun to enjoy the flowers until night.

As night fell, Prince Rong kept waiting for news from the mansion.

After midnight, a fire suddenly broke out in the backyard of Prince Rong's Mansion.

People in the mansion fled out one after another, "Oh no! It's gone!"

Then a group of boys carried wooden buckets to put out the fire.

But the fire was so powerful that it was not completely extinguished until the next morning.

Prince Rong also got the news and rushed over after dawn.

When the steward of Prince Rong's Mansion saw him coming back, he immediately ran over and cried: "Your Majesty, you are finally back. The princess and the lady..."

Prince Rong immediately looked panicked, grabbed the butler's arm like crazy, and asked, "What's wrong with my wife?"

The housekeeper lowered his head, his face was pale and bloodless, and he replied with a trembling voice: "The princess and the young lady's house was burned down... They..."

"Madam! Xiang'er!"

Before the butler could finish what he said, Prince Rong shouted in grief and rushed into the ruins where black smoke was still rising.
