Chapter Seventy-Five:-for-Tat (2)

"Miss, let's leave first, we still know why the emperor put Concubine Yu under house arrest, it's better not to be involved." Ruby whispered.

Xiao Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and let the love slower down, Concubine Yu should be unreliable, so who else can she rely on?

When she was in the Women's Academy, she didn't learn the etiquette of the palace according to the teaching palace people, and she wanted to be unsuccessful, but the palace people who taught her always guided her patiently and meticulously many times, but it showed that she and the rest of the show girls were a lot rougher.

It backfired as she thought, and in the end she was still among the four show girls selected by Chaoyang Lian.

Back at the residence of the show girl, Xiao Xiaoxiao felt a little tired, Chaoyang Liancheng had not yet been canonized, she lived in the same courtyard with Cheng Rao and two other show girls, and now her personal maid only brought Hongyu by her side, and the palace people were waiting for her.

"The girl is back? Dinner is ready, you use it now.? A palace maid respectfully greeted Xiao Xiaoxiao and asked.

Xiao Xiaoxiao looked at the few dishes on the table, turned his head and said to Hongyu, "Withdraw, I don't want to eat, I'll get some water later, I want to rest early."

"Yes."

Hongyu watched Xiao Xiaoxiao enter the bedroom before beckoning the other palace people to withdraw the food, and then let a palace maid fetch a basin of water to come in.

The palace maid was very fast, and the water came in a while.

Hongyu took the basin into her hand and said, "The girl is tired, I'll send it in, you are all outside." ”

In the bedroom, Xiao Xiaoxiao had already changed into casual clothes, her hair was scattered, and she was sitting on the dresser combing her hair.

"Miss, the water is coming"

"Let it go." Xiao Xiaoxiao turned the comb around and ordered, then put down the comb and walked to the basin.

Hongyu had already prepared a towel and offered it to Xiao Xiaoxiao with both hands.

After Xiao Xiaoxiao took the towel from Hongyu's hand to clean her face, Hongyu took the towel and waited for instructions.

"You go out too"

Hongyu didn't know what Xiao Xiaoxiao meant, and it could be seen that her expression seemed to be very low, and she was worried and didn't dare to interrogate.

Xiao Xiaoxiao walked to the guqin in the corner of the bedroom after Hongyu left, intending to pluck the strings, as soon as his fingers were placed on the strings, he felt a pain in his head, his face became hot, and his body slowly fell to the ground without any strength, and gradually he couldn't open his eyes and fell asleep.

The night of the imperial city was unusually silent, and Lian Cheng walked to the corridor in front of the palace after processing the last piece of the day in the Zichen Palace, and found that he had nowhere to go in the palace except this Zichen Palace.

The location of Zichen Hall is in Gao, and he can look around the imperial city, in addition to a few palaces that he is familiar with, there are still stars and candles, and there is also an unfamiliar one that seems to be on fire.

"Where is that?" Lian Cheng asked the attendant behind him.

The attendant looked up and was shocked, "Return, Your Majesty, it is the courtyard of the four showgirls to be crowned." ”

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Lian Cheng frowned and flew to the courtyard.

It was Hongyu's errand that night, although she was already sleepy, but she also held on, Xiao Xiaoxiao slept early, and inevitably woke up early, she was hungry and thirsty, so she had a good preparation.

She smelled a burning smell in the sleepiness, and it became stronger and stronger, and in an instant she woke up and woke up the little palace maid who was sleeping next to her.

"It seems to be on fire, go and call someone, I'm waking up the girl"

The little palace maid slept in a daze, and there were usually two people on duty at night, so that they could take turns to sleep, she rubbed her eyes and the old grandfather said, "Sister Hongyu, where is it on fire, why can't I smell it." ”

Hongyu shook her and said hurriedly, "Hurry up and go out and call someone, hurry up!!。 ”

The little palace maid saw that Hongyu was so anxious and sobered up a lot, and a burning smell poured into her nose.

"Ahem, ahem, I'm going to call someone, Sister Hongyu is going to wake up the girl"

"Be quick." Hongyu covered her nose and ran towards Xiao Xiaoxiao's bedroom.

"Miss... Ahem, ahem... Miss...."Hongyu's smoke-choked eyes can barely see clearly, and her throat is itching.

She finally touched things without touching anything, but when she got to the side of the bed, there was no one on the bed at all, and she panicked.

"Miss... Where are you? She looked around, and the smoke was getting denser. ”

The fire slowly spread from the beam of the room to the curtain of the bed, and Hongyu finally saw Xiao Xiaoxiao lying in the corner of the room with this light in the light.

She ran over and helped Xiao Xiaoxiao up.

"Miss... Miss... Don't scare me... What happened to you.... shouted a few times, but Xiao Xiaoxiao still didn't respond.

Hongyu put her hand under her nose, her breath was there, but it was wet in her hand, although she couldn't see it, she could smell it, it was ...... blood.

The little palace maid who rushed out of the room shouted in the courtyard, "It's on fire, it's on fire, the girl is still in the room, come on......"

shouted a few times and still didn't respond, the little palace maid's eyes Xiao Xiaoxiao's room had already seen a spark.

Thinking that Miss Chengrao and the girl could usually talk, she hurriedly ran to the other side of the courtyard and banged on the door and shouted, "Girl, the girl is awake, it's on fire."

Cheng Rao's maid opened the door, saw Miss Biao's maid knocking on the door and asked, "Speak slowly, what's the matter, Miss is asleep!"

"It's on fire, put out the fire......

"Got it? I'll tell the young lady to get up, and you can go to another room to call someone."

One after another, the people in the other two wings came out when they saw the movement, and the little palace maids and little eunuchs all took trolls to fetch water.

When Lian Cheng arrived, Cheng Rao had just put on her coat and hurried out of the room.

"Cousin, cousin." She panicked, Xiao Xiaoxiao's wing room had already seen an open flame, and she didn't know what the situation inside was.

"Who else hasn't come out?" Lian Cheng asked in a deep voice.

Cheng Rao just cried and didn't see Lian Cheng, but when she saw it, she suddenly panicked even more, took a few steps back and looked, the two show girls next to her would also come out, so Xiao Xiaoxiao didn't come out.

Regardless of the rudeness, she stepped forward and grabbed Lian Cheng's sleeve and cried, "There is still a cousin who didn't come out, and her room burned down."

Although there were eunuchs and palace maids holding basins to extinguish the fire, it was useless in the face of the fire.

Lian Cheng grabbed a eunuch who had made water and snatched the basin in his hand, and the basin of water was drenched from head to tail.

Although Cheng Rao was worried about Xiao Xiaoxiao's comfort, she saw that Lian Cheng was planning to go in to save people by herself, so she was busy holding his hand.

"Your Majesty, no, let the guards go, it's too dangerous"

Lian Cheng directly shook Cheng Rao's hand, the fire was already burning dazzlingly, and the guards were afraid that they would not be able to save it if they went in.

"Your Majesty......" Cheng Rao looked at Lian Cheng and shouted again.

Lian Cheng entered the room, the fire in the outer room was already very big, and the smell of suffocating smoke poured into his nostrils, he tried his best to hold his breath and not be bothered by the smoke, and when he entered the inner room, he only swept his eyes once, and saw a figure in a corner.

"Xiaoxiao?" Lian Cheng shouted.

Hongyu hugged the unconscious Xiao Xiaoxiao, the fire was too big for her to go out with Xiao Xiaoxiao, she couldn't shout when the smoke was already choking, when she heard the voice, she immediately raised her head, and on the other side of the table that was already on fire, it was actually the emperor who came to save the young lady.
