Yue Chan happened to be able to hear his cold and emotionless voice from the front. She hurriedly lay down in the grass, not daring to come any closer.
As she slowly crawled forward in the grass, she saw a row of eunuchs wearing black cloaks. Among them, there seemed to be some eunuchs that had just passed by her.
Ah!" "Don't...
Outside the palace walls of the Cold Palace were eunuchs wearing black cloaks, guarding every important road. Occasionally, those who had escaped from the cold palace would be caught and thrown into the sea of fire.
His heart suddenly sank. If that was the case, then even if mufei were to escape from the palace, she would not be able to do so.
"What about the fires? "As soon as possible, don't let the alarm get too big."
"Yes, your servant ordered them to place the oiled firewood in various parts of the Cold Palace and pour it all into the vegetable oil. That place had the most intensity of fire, and no one would ever be able to escape. All of the major paths are guarded. "
"The palace has been alarmed. Very soon, people will come. You guys go take a look, see if there's any fish that escaped the net. "
"Yes sir!"
Some black-clothed individuals held steel sabers in their hands as they entered the entrance of the cold palace. When they saw someone running outside, they immediately threw the saber into the sea of flames, destroying the person's corpse.
Yue Chanjuan's tiny body trembled slightly. This was a forbidden area of the imperial palace. Who were these people? Why did he dare to arson and kill so brazenly?
She looked towards the distant palace wall and climbed over it. She wanted to climb over the wall and go back to see if Han WanRong was still in the sea of fire.
"Eunuch, it's me, I'm Qian Yao, one of the imperial concubine's men."
Just as he crawled a few steps, he heard a familiar voice. A woman was brought out from the cold palace.
Looking up, he saw that it was his maid, Qian Yao. Her warm and gentle face was hidden by the light of the fire, revealing a sinister and malicious intent.
"Greetings, Sect Leader."
"Qian Yao, how is it inside?"
"Reporting to Eunuch, this servant had drugged the soup at night, Han Wangrong is definitely dead. "But …"
"Speak!"
One of them was slightly plump, and stood in front of Qian Yao. Because his back was facing Yue Chan, she couldn't see his face.
"Eunuch, then it should be Lin Han. Mufei, mufei …"
He covered his mouth with his hand and bit his own hand. Listening to Qian Zhi's words, he had drugged his mother in the evening soup. If his mother had drunk that soup, she would definitely have passed out and burned to death.
At night she made a pearl soup and paid attention to everything she heard during the day because of the conversation between her and Green Pearl. She originally didn't care about that soup, but because mufei wasn't feeling well these days, she poured her own soup into Han WanRong's bowl. When she came over, she saw that her bowl was empty, and she smiled sweetly.
"Heavens! How would I know that this servant drugged the soup!?"
He tightly grasped the grass on the ground and stabbed his fingers into the ground. Even though they were on guard, they were still caught off guard. These people were so arrogant. They actually dared to set fire to and kill people in the palace.
"Reporting to eunuch, the princess has disappeared."
"Pah!"
With a crisp sound, Lin Han's expression changed. With a wave of her palm, five red lines appeared on Qian Yao's face. Dark red blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth.
"Plop …"
After being kicked by Lin Han, Qian Yao fell onto the ground. She cried out in pain in a low voice and quickly shut her mouth.
"Servant, what do I need you for? You can't even look at a child. The Empress can be considered to have raised you for nothing." Someone, throw this servant back into the cold palace! "
"Please spare my life, please spare my life, this servant still has a favor to report."
"Master, please give this servant a chance. This servant will definitely find the princess and send her on her way with my own hands."
Yue Chanjuan lay prone in the grass, not daring to move at all as she was afraid of being discovered by these people. Her small body slowly retreated, crawling on the grass.
As a noble princess, she should not be so timid and petty. However, in order to protect her own life, she could only do so.
A green and purple face appeared in her mind. Blood dripped from her eyes and her stomach bulged slightly. Inside the face was her younger brother that she had never seen before.
She could not die, nor was she qualified to die. On that night, she made a vow that she would do everything in her power to save her life and avenge her mufei and younger brother.
A wisp of sparkling light appeared in her deep eyes as she sorrowfully looked at the blazing cold palace. The other imperial concubine, who had taken her as her own daughter, had been burned alive just like that.
"Tomorrow, a sentence about a cold palace not getting caught on fire, because the dry matter in the sky was not extinguished in time, everyone in the palace died from the sea of fire, so this matter can be understood. Pity my mufei, she was implicated because of me! "
"Qian Yao, I'll give you one more chance. If you can't find that evil child tonight and execute her in secret, then you don't need to come back to our house."
"This servant will definitely …"
She did not dare to raise her head to look at Lin Han. Tonight, either the princess would die, or she would die.
"Retreat, disperse and return, don't attract anyone's attention."
After Lin Han finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the darkness. Someone had already piled up the firewood at each of the doors. Those who were lucky enough to escape through the sea of fire were also killed and thrown back.
Voices could be vaguely heard in the distance. Those eunuchs who had killed people after arson tightly wrapped their black cloaks around their bodies and disappeared into the night.
Yue Chanjuan only dared to get up after climbing into the thicket. She bent over and ran in the thicket. The direction she was heading towards was the Orchid Pavilion Garden.
"Mufei, please forgive me for not being able to return to see you. You have a soul in heaven that can protect me when I see you, Imperial Father. Leave this life, and take revenge for you."
Raising his head to glance at the sky, he realized that the wind was strong and the clouds were heavy. In the dark and gloomy sky, not a single star could be seen.
She didn't know who else she could trust, if she could figure out the way in the dark and avoid the people who had come to save the fire. At this moment, she avoided all of them, preferring to run alone in the dark.
Only when he saw the door of the Orchid Pavilion Garden did he come to a stop, gasping for breath.
"I wonder if royal father has already entered the Orchid Pavilion Garden, or if he hasn't arrived yet?"
If her royal father had entered, it would be difficult for her to see him.
There was nothing unusual about the Orchid Pavilion Garden. Two eunuchs stood at the door, gazing into the distance at the cold palace. Their mouths moved, but no one knew what they were talking about. Seeing this scene, Yue Chanjuan knew that her royal father had yet to arrive at the Orchid Pavilion Garden.
"Perhaps it's because of the fire, so I came here late. How can I attract royal father's attention?"
When he thought back to his father in his mind, he realized that the figure was extremely blurry, and in its haziness, all that was left was a dignified view of his back.
In the distance, a golden chaise gradually approached. Yue Chanjuan grew excited. This was the first time in three years that she had seen her own Imperial Father.
The curtain of the golden throne was lifted. It seemed that Hui Di felt that putting down the curtain was stuffy, as Hui Di had not allowed the curtain to cover the throne.
He slightly closed his eyes and leaned against the throne, the wind blowing and the cold palace on fire, completely unable to move him.
"Aiya …"
A delicate cry of surprise came from the side as a small figure ran out from the bushes.
"Who is it?" "Astounding is the sin of all death, protect the emperor …"
Someone shouted out. Hui Di slowly opened his eyes. There was a little tiredness in his eyes, but it still did not lose its dignity.
Imperial Father … wuu … Imperial Father, your son is afraid …
The delicate voice caused Hui Di's heart to move slightly, and he instantly became gentle. In the light of the lantern, a small dark figure got up from the ground and looked up at him with tearful eyes.
His hands were dripping with blood, and his face was as red as a painting. He ran towards Shi Hao with a youthful look on his face.
The guards stopped Yue Chanjuan, causing her to sob in a low voice. She used her large, sparkling eyes to look at Hui Di. Each drop of tears fell down like pearls.
"Father, what a great anger, this son is afraid."
His hands were covered with blood, and his clothes were covered with dirt and bits of grass. After crawling around in the grass for quite a while, he came back through the bushes. His clothes were scratched quite a bit, and traces of blood were seeping out from his clothes.
"She is …"
The eunuch at the side hurriedly bowed and replied, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Princess Wuyou requests an audience."
Hui Di remembered that this child that seemed to have walked out from a painting was the daughter he had once praised with his "devastatingly beautiful", Princess Wuyou. It was as if he hadn't seen this child for a few years, and he had grown up a lot.
