Song Qingyu halted his steps and turned to look at her, "I know you are targeting me, but the people around you are all the empress. You should be careful when you speak. If you say something wrong, you might bite your tongue."

"Some people should pay attention!"

A cold wind blew past.

Song Qingyu smelled something burning and looked at the direction of the smell. The lantern had actually started burning.

At the same time, Song Yiyan shouted, "What happened, why is it stuck on your hand? "Help!"

Song Qingyu was stunned for a moment. No wonder he smelled something strange earlier, it was the handle of the lantern. Song Qingyu wanted to loosen his grip but couldn't; with the wind just now, all the lanterns were already burning.

The fire spread like wild grass. Almost to the handle. The shock caused everyone to panic.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Help!"

The unworldly young masters and mistresses were already flustered. Some begged, some waved lanterns with all their might, but none of them worked. The palace maids beside him acted as if they didn't see it, but they simultaneously took a step back.

Song Qing Yu stood on the spot, and from time to time, people would crash into her.

She frowned slightly. Although the light was intense, obviously something had been added into it. Once she calmed down, she would notice that the fire had stopped and the handle had not spread out.

Song Yiyan went crazy for a while, and when she noticed Song Qingyu, she panted in fear.

However, the others were not as calm as the two of them, especially when they saw Mu pei'er stumbling like a frightened wild horse. The movement of the lantern almost hurt her skirt.

"Big Sis, it's too messy here. Let's go over there."

Song Yiyan tried her best to stick close to Song Qingyu, looking at the crowd in fear.

Song Qingyu was stunned for a moment. These people would obviously hurt each other. If the fire was not controlled, it would cause a disturbance no matter who it touched. Furthermore, these were all the noble ladies of Yu City.

It was impossible for the empress to not think of the seriousness of this matter.

Unless she did it on purpose.

Song Qingyu gritted her teeth. She did not want to be chosen by the empress. However, the scene was so chaotic that no one cared about the others. Song Yiyan still wanted to leave the scene and protect herself.

"Second sister, I'm a bit curious. These palace maids don't care at all. Did the empress intentionally probe?"

Song Qingyu spoke timidly, and a dark light flashed in his eyes, reminding Song Yiyan.

Song Yiyan was surprised for a moment, but she quickly understood and sneered, pretending she didn't hear Song Qingyu's voice.

"Everyone, everyone, don't worry, calm down. The lantern will not burn us. Calm down. "Stop."

Song Yiyan's voice was loud enough for everyone to hear.

Soon, everyone came to their senses and stopped.

Mu Pei'er steadied her feet and seeing that it was indeed like that, she supported the jade hairpin that had been knocked into a mess, forcing out a smile, "Big Sister Yan is so awesome. It really will be fine. "

Everyone was gasping for breath, and soon, the flames of the lanterns began to die down. The viscosity of his hands wasn't as tight as before, as if his hands could move around freely very quickly.

Everyone was embarrassed by their rude actions, and they all envied Song Yiyan who had just emerged from the crowd.

"How did the Song sisters know?"

Song Yiyan pretended to be profound, "I noticed why everyone came here with lanterns, it's to test our courage."

The corner of Song Qingyu's mouth twitched. To think that she could come up with such a plan!

As the palace maids saw the lanterns gradually extinguish, they slowly stepped forward and said, "Congratulations to the ladies for passing the test."

After the earlier panic, the surroundings were completely calm. Everyone was very grateful to Song Yiyan. They all came over to fawn on him.

Song Qingyu did not care about this. He did not want to be in the limelight. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a rapid wind blowing past him. It was as if a stone had flown across his face.

At the same time, Mu Pei'er let out a cry and fell forward, the lantern in her hand striking Song Yiyan.

Song Yiyan subconsciously pushed down Mu Pei'er when she saw him pouncing towards her.

Mu Pei'er fell to the ground miserably. As the lantern fell on her clothes, it ignited them in an instant. She was scared out of her wits. Her face was ashen as she shouted, "It's on fire! "Help! Someone help me!"

As she spoke, she directly hugged the people around her. Almost everyone was gasping for breath as they pulled out their long skirts from the ground and gathered together once again. Mu pei'er was like a mad beast that would grab anyone who saw her.

The palace maids were also frightened and did not dare to step forward. They were at a loss of what to do.

Song Qingyu frowned slightly. If he hadn't seen wrongly, it was a rock that had struck Mu Pei'er's knee, forcing her to fall down.

Song Qingyu did not have much time to think, so he asked the palace maid, "Is there no water?"

The palace maids were stunned, "We didn't think that far. The lake was still some distance away. What should he do? "Let's hurry to find the empress."

Song Qing and Yu were angered to the point that their faces turned purple. The Queen didn't know what to do if something went wrong. Can we find the empress to put out the fire now? I'm afraid that once the empress arrives, she'll be burned. "

He directly pushed the crowd aside and spoke to the few people who had been implicated by Mu Pei'er. "Follow my instructions, quickly find a way to extinguish the fire on your bodies."

He pushed her to the ground, rolling her around in a circle, ignoring her objections, and then stepped on the fire on her skirt.

"What are you guys staring at? Do you want to burn all of your clothes? There are still many guards here! "

Song Qingyu reprimanded. The young ladies who had their arms and legs tied immediately ignored their image.

After a moment of embarrassment, the fire was finally extinguished.

Song Yiyan was stunned by Song Qingyu's sudden action. He was staring at Song Qingyu as if he was a stranger.

Song Qing and Yu sighed and stopped.

Mu pei'er was in a sorry state and was still trembling with fear. She slowly stood up and noticed that her body was covered with ashes, her hair was messy, she angrily glared at Song Qingyu, "It's you! It must be you, you pushed me just now! "

Song Qing Yu let out a breath and laughed coldly, "I was so far away from you just now, how did I manage to push you away?"

"Who knows what method you used?"

The other misses were no longer in danger and felt grateful towards Song Qingyu. If it weren't for him, they would have already lost face. If it was just now that their skin had been burned, then things would have been even worse.

"Pei'er, it was really the Song Family's big sister who saved us. We were all scared. "

"Yeah, big sister Song is very far away from you. If it wasn't for big sister Song, the fire wouldn't have burned out.

Seeing the new clothes she had purposely changed for today, Mu Pei'er stomped her feet in anger. The crowd was still helping Song Qingyu, and she was even more infuriated now. She could only suppress her emotions.
