The palace at night was empty and dark. The guards in the palace also changed waves after waves.

Inside Weiyang Palace, Mu Jiuer, who was supposed to be sound asleep, was actually lying on her bed. She turned her head to look at the door, and after confirming that all the maids in the hall were asleep, she sat up, walked to the side of the table and lit up the candles.

This was the best chance.

Thinking this way, she overturned the recently lit candlestick.

"Hu!" The fire on the candlestick quickly spread and ignited the Xuan paper on the table. Mu Jiuer seemed to think that the fire was not strong enough, he lit a candle and threw it into the bed that he was lying on. In the blink of an eye, the dry quilt was lit up, releasing a crackling sound.

She stood close to the door and watched the fire spread to half of the room. Then, she turned around and rushed anxiously to Su Ruanyu and his mother's room. Wake up! "

Su Ruanyu was half awake when he heard Mu Jiuer say, "Sister-in-law, since the fire is happening now, quickly run away! Take Little Yan and run out of the palace!"

Hearing that, Su Ruanyu instantly became clear-headed and looked at Mu Jiuer vigilantly.

Mu Jiuer did not notice her abnormality and continued to stuff the exit token and bag of silver into her hands, saying in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, take this medallion and you will be able to leave the palace gates. After leaving the palace, you guys walked far away, this bag of silver is enough for you guys to spend for a year.

"What about you?" Su Ruanyu did not move.

"I have my own ways. Don't worry about that for now, there's not much time left. Hurry up and bring Little Yan away." Mu Jiuer anxiously helped Su Ruanyu up, and then placed the sleeping Little Yan in her embrace.

Seeing that, Su Ruanyu slowly followed behind Mu Jiuer, but her lowered eyes blocked her thoughts.

When the three of them ran out of Weiyang Palace, the fire had already reached its boiling point. However, Mu Jiuer stopped in his tracks at this moment, "Sister-in-law, you should take Little Yan with you and leave first." With that, he returned to Weiyang Palace without looking back.

"Hey, you …" Before Su Ruanyu could ask about the reason, Mu Jiuer had already disappeared. She looked at the child in her arms, then at the burning Weiyang Palace, her eyes moved a little, but she did not go to the entrance of the palace. Instead, she ran in the direction of Yangxin Palace.

In Weiyang Palace, Mu Jiuer ran back to his own sleeping quarters, and stepped back step by step.

The fire grew larger and larger, but her steps were firm. She raised her hand to stroke her stomach, a gentle smile on her face.

Child, mother will accompany you.

Mu Jiuer raised his eyes to look at the sea of fire, as if he was looking at the clansmen who had died in that sea of fire.

Father, mother, we're coming to accompany you.

"Mu Jiuer, you dare!" Qin Yan's furious voice came from outside the hall, "If you dare to die, we will cut that mother and daughter to pieces!"

Mu Jiuer seemed to not have heard, and allowed himself to be slowly engulfed by the sea of flames.

Outside the hall, a large number of guards rushed over to save the fire, but the fire could only be controlled a little.

"Little Jiu!" Following the clear and melodious voice, a man rushed into the sea of fire to save the others.

Qin Yan looked at Nan Xiangfei who had rushed into the palace. His entire being was unusually agitated, and just as he was about to follow in, he was stopped by the eunuch beside him.

"Your Majesty, you have the body of a dragon. Don't be rash."

Qin Yan clenched her tight fists and angrily waved her hand, "You must save her for us. Mingyue's life is still in her hands.

"Yes." The guards all answered in unison and one by one, they rushed into the fire, and just as they entered, they heard Nan Xiangfei's voice from inside.

"Little Jiu! Little Jiu, where are you? Little Jiu! " Nan Xiangfei pushed all of the protective guards in front of him, and carefully searched for Mu Jiuer.

However, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find a single trace of her.

Little Jiu, why did she leave when he just came back? Can't we wait for him?

Nan Xiangfei felt some despair. He did not stop for even a moment as he searched deeper within, "Little Jiu, where are you?"

"Ugh …" A faint sound came from the wardrobe.

Nan Xiangfei's eyes revealed a look of surprise and joy, he immediately ran towards the direction of the voice, opening the wardrobe, and saw Mu Jiuer's hands protecting his stomach, curling up and fainting in the closet, his brows knitted tightly.

"Little Jiu!" Nan Xiangfei immediately carried Mu Jiuer and ran out of the hall.

When he was about to walk out, a wooden beam that was boiling hot smashed towards the two of them. Nan Xiangfei could not dodge in time and hurriedly protected Mu Jiuer from beneath him.

"Little Jiu, I won't let anything happen to you." Nan Xiangfei thought as he struggled to lift the wooden beam off of his body. He struggled to get up and tightly hugged Mu Jiuer, afraid that he would throw her off.

Fortunately, the guards finally arrived and saved the two in time.

When Qin Yan saw the unconscious Mu Jiuer being carried out, his tightly clenched fists slowly relaxed. He heaved a sigh of relief, as he was afraid of this woman's death in his heart.

Seeing that Mu Jiuer was saved, Nan Xiangfei was finally relieved and fainted, but he still tightly held onto her hand.

When Qin Yan saw the two of them holding hands, he felt that it was too much for his eyes. His expression became even darker as he coldly said, "Separate the two of them!"

Wei Ming felt that it was a little strange and looked at the emperor for a bit before retracting his gaze. He obediently sent a guard to break Nan Xiangfei's grip.

Only then did Qin Yan feel a little better, and didn't care about where this strange feeling came from. He could only instruct the imperial physician to heal these two people's injuries.
