Hearing this, Emperor Ning sobered up. He sat up in a hurry, ordered the eunuchs to change, and ordered master Zheng to prepare a carriage to Qiwu palace.
When Emperor Ning arrived, he found the whole Qiwu palace was bathed in flames. Frowning, he called in the Imperial Guard. "What's going on? Why did the Qiwu palace catch a fire? "
The Commander of Yulin Guard, remained silent for a long time before kneeling down to Emperor Ning. "Your Majesty, please punish me for my negligence."
"Punish you?" Emperor Ning sneered, raised his foot and gave the imperial guard a hard kick. "If you want to be punished, you have to put out the fire. Hurry up!"
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard and the beams of flames on the roof of the main hall of the Qiwu palace had already collapsed. The flames were splashing. Master Zheng quickly pulled emperor Ning back and said, "Your Majesty, it's dangerous here. You'd better go back to the qinzheng hall first. The commander is there. Come back after the fire subsides."
Emperor Ning's face changed for a long time. He nodded and then turned around. "Where is lady Jin?"
Master Zheng didn't understand why emperor Ning asked so, but he hurriedly called the eunuch to Jinxiu palace.
Emperor Ning squinted at the Qiwu palace for a long time. Then he got in a carriage and went back to the Qinzheng Hall. When the eunuch who was sent to look for lady Jin returned to the qinzheng hall, he told the emperor that the little prince caught a cold at night. Lady Jin called in an imperial physician to treat the little prince's illness. The little prince kept crying and screaming. He hasn't rested yet. Only lady Jin can take care of him because he didn't allow other madams near him. Lady Jin can't get away.
Emperor Ning was shocked. "Chenxi is sick? Why didn'
nd it was sort of an accident, then after today's imperial edict, it would be man-made.
Who was it?
Emperor Ning made a plan in his mind. He only targeted lady Jin, Yun Shang and Li Yiran.
Lady Jin had always been cold. Even when he married Li Yiran, she never said a word to him. Lady Jin had invited herself to the cold palace for some misunderstandings. To be honest, she was unlikely to do this. But now the situation was different. Lady Jin had a son named Chenxi. If lady Jin wanted Chenxi to be the crown prince, it was not possible for Jing Wenxi to marry the emperor. Then lady Jin might be able to do it. She was a very clever woman in the first place.
As for Li Yiran, although she was kept in a secret chamber in Qiwu palace, she had been in charge of the imperial household for so many years and there were still some hidden forces that were unknown to him. If the smoke powder in the secret room was really brought in by Li Yiran, it also explained that there was someone helping her in the Imperial Palace, and that must be someone outside the imperial palace. Therefore, there were always some other forces. And it wasn't something she couldn't do by destroying their marriage.
