After the two exited Yao shi's tent, they headed directly to where Feng Yu Heng was living. She urgently asked Wang Chuan: "Where in the academy was the fire?"

Wang Chuan said: "In the kitchen. After investigating, it was a cook that had been lazy and did not notice that a pot had run out of water, which ended up starting the fire. But at that time, there were some children that had wanted to learn how to work the fire, so that they could make some soups for themselves. Young master was among them."

Feng Yu Heng was already on edge. Upon hearing that Zi Rui was also part of this group, her hope that it was just a coincidence was immediately eradicated. A fire had started at Yun Lu Academy, and Zi Rui happened to be at the scene. How could this be a coincidence?

"Was he hurt?" She asked Wang Chuan, "When did the news arrive?"

Wang Chuan said: "Word just arrived by carrier pigeon. Young master is fine. The academy has no shortage of guardians on site. As soon as the fire broke out, those guardians immediately picked up the children and rushed out."

She calmed down a little. It seemed that this should have just been a warning for her. But this was just the first time. It was inevitable that the second time would quickly happen. After experiencing what had happened with Yao shi, Feng Yu Heng never stopped considering whether or not she should send someone to Xiao Zhou to protect Zi Rui. But she also felt that it would be disrespectful to the academy, as Zi Rui was living at the academy. Now it seemed like respect was just a small matter. Zi Rui's life and safety were already under threat.

She raised her head and gently shouted into the air: "Ban Zou."

A shadow flashed before her, and Ban Zou appeared. Before she could speak, he immediately said: "You want me to go to Xiao Zhou?"

Feng Yu Heng nodded, "Only you can go. If we cannot do it overtly, we can only do it covertly. Ban Zou, I would not be at ease if it was anyone else. Either way, I am now at the military camp. There is absolutely no need for protection."

"Can you remain at the military camp for an eternity?" Ban Zou looked at her coldly.

She helplessly said: "You cannot possibly remain in Xiao Zhou for an eternity. When you go this time, bring along one hidden guard, but remember that you cannot use his Highness Prince Yu's people. We are at a critical juncture for producing steel right now. We absolutely cannot become distracted right now."

Ban Zou pondered a little, "Then I will bring along someone sent by his Highness the seventh prince. How long do you want for me to stay?"

Feng Yu Heng said: "One month. After arriving at Yun Lu Academy, stay for a full month. After settling things on that side, come back. From today onward, that hidden guard will be given to Zi Rui. You absolutely must be sure to explain this to him."

Ban Zou nodded, "Don't worry. His Highness the seventh prince's hidden guard was sent here, there is no intention of taking them back. They are all your people. They will protect whomever you wish to protect." Speaking of this, he paused then added: "In truth, I am the same. If you really chased me away to Xiao Zhou and told me not to return, I would also do it." After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Feng Yu Heng to speak. In a flash, he disappeared into the air, leaving behind a message: "Take care of yourself. I will leave tonight."

Wang Chuan looked in a certain direction and stared for a while then suddenly said: "Young miss should consider getting a new hidden guard."

"Hm?" Feng Yu Heng had been thinking only of the matters in Xiao Zhou and did not pay attention to what Wang Chuan had just said, asking: "What did you say?"
