Chapter 4: Fire Escape

The fire quickly spread all around, enveloping almost the entire bamboo forest.

This is obviously someone deliberately set fire to several places, trying to trap her in the forest and burn her alive!

The only one who knew that she was coming to the bamboo forest tonight was Xiu Tao.

She proposed to come to Aunt Fang Qin in front of Xiu Tao with the intention of being tempted, but sure enough, this girl couldn't stand the test, so she couldn't wait to report it to Yufu impatiently.

The current situation was unfavorable, so she decisively picked up Aunt Fang Qin and turned back, only to find that the only exit that could save her life was actually blocked by a few thick trees.

The cuts in those trees are very flat and apparently man-made!

Could it be that there is a third person in this forest besides her and Aunt Fang Qin?

But if this person was sent by Yufu, he could have assassinated her directly, and he didn't need to make such a big move as burning the bamboo forest.

It's too late to think about why.

She laid Aunt Fang Qin on the ground behind her, took out the bag of embroidery needles hidden in her cuffs, and stabbed Aunt Fang Qin with two stitches on the back of her hand and the center of her eyebrows.

Fang Qin, who was still unconscious, suddenly trembled violently, opened a pair of frightened eyes, and looked at her in a daze: "Is it Miss Zixuan?" Slave maid can't be dreaming, can I still see you? ”

She excitedly wanted to hug the person in front of her, but as soon as she moved, the wounds all over her body hurt badly, and she couldn't help but gasp.

"Aunt Fang Qin, if you have something to say when we leave here, now you can see if you can stand up." Yu Zixuan held her arm.

Although she could barely stand up, the wound began to bleed out again, and Fang Qin's forehead was already full of sweat, but she still endured it and didn't cry out in front of her, and even withdrew a pale smile, which in turn comforted her: "Miss don't worry about me, I can still go." ”

Yu Zixuan felt a warm current in her heart, her eyes were unconsciously gentle, she held her hand tightly, and said with a calm expression: "This fire is going to burn here in less than half a moment, and we can't climb out of the hole, so we can only work Aunt you step on my shoulder and climb out of the wall." ”

"This can't be helped, Miss, where can you bear such a heavy weight?" Fang Qin shook her head desperately in fear: "The life of the slave is not valuable, but Miss, you must leave alive, so that you can have a chance to avenge the Bing family!" ”

Avenge......

This word made Yu Zixuan suddenly remember the voice that once appeared in her head.

"Xuan'er, it's time for you to wake up...... It's time to wake up. ”

"Xuan'er, have you forgotten the family hatred you shoulder?"

Could it be that the Bing family that Aunt Fang Qin mentioned just now was the same thing as the voice mentioning family hatred?

Seeing that she refused to give up on herself, Fang Qin's eyes moistened: "Miss, it's useless to be a slave, I can't protect you by your side, I have failed my wife's dying entrustment, I'm sorry...... Slave I'm sorry for the Bing family. ”

The feeling of the scorching flame was getting closer and closer, Yu Zixuan looked at her with firm eyes, pulled her directly to the wall, and half-squatted down: "If my aunt doesn't leave today, I won't live alone!" ”

She said this on purpose, so as to stimulate Aunt Fang Qin's will to survive.

But Fang Qin didn't want to bother her, so she didn't step on her back for a long time, but knelt on the ground and begged her to leave quickly.

Yu Zixuan's heart was crossed, and she directly took out the last one and threatened her neck: "Auntie, since you don't want to live anymore, then I will die here to accompany you now." ”

"No, miss, you must not hurt yourself, slave listen to you...... Just listen to you. Fang Qin wiped away two lines of tears, crawled slowly onto her back, and staggered high up the wall.

Before she could grasp it, she heard a stab in the back!

It's the sound of the roots of the tree falling down after the roots are scorched by the fire!

"Auntie, hurry up." Fang Qin's thin body could no longer support it, and it was all supported by a willpower.

Fang Qin didn't dare to look back to see what the situation was, gritted his teeth, and with a strong grip of his hands, he finally managed to climb to the other side of the wall.

At this time, more trees fell in the direction where Yu Zixuan was, and she could only rush to the other side and roll to the place that had not yet been harmed.

Unexpectedly, I just squatted for too long, my legs were stiff and numb, and my speed was not enough.

Between life and death, a black shadow suddenly stood in front of her.

Before I could see clearly, I heard only a crisp click.

It was a dazzling white edge flashing.

When Yu Zixuan came back to her senses, she found that the thick tree pole had been cut into two parts.

If you were really suppressed just now, you really had to wait here for death.

Standing in front of her was a man, dressed in white like snow, with long hair tied high, and only half of a picturesque handsome side face could be seen, exquisite and exquisite.

Under the flickering firelight, it is like a god descending into the world.

The man waved his sleeves, put away his long sword, and turned to come to her, his black and white eyes were clear and bright, as if he could see through everything and shine into people's hearts.

Beauty is beautiful, handsome is handsome.

But how could this man appear in the bamboo forest of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the middle of the night?

Are you trying to sneak in from here and steal something?

Yu Zixuan immediately calmed down, reminding herself in her heart that she couldn't be confused by beauty.

He quickly stood up against the wall behind him, stepped on those tree poles as stepping stones, climbed to the top of the wall, and waved his hand at the man: "Thank you, Childe, there will be no time in the future." ”

With that, she leaped into the darkness.

The man looked at her nimble movements, his eyes darkened, and the corners of his lips hooked up with an inexplicable smile.

"When did you be so kind and would come to the rescue?" Another man's teasing laughter came from behind him: "Could it be that you have fallen in love with that woman's beauty like the prince?" ”

Qi Yuan brushed away the hand he pressed on his shoulder, and said indifferently: "Superficial." ”

"It seems that you haven't been stunned yet, don't forget how the Prime Minister is treating you."

At the beginning, the general's mansion was powerful, and almost the power leaned towards the government and the opposition, Yuhong, who had just become the prime minister, tried his best to curry favor with him, and spent three years befriending Qi Yuan's father, and even directly set up a baby kiss, ostensibly wanting to kiss and kiss, Yuhong's real purpose was to consolidate his power in the court.

In order to keep the comfort of the Qi family and the only male heir, he deliberately let Qi Yuan pretend to be sick, and went home to recuperate under the pretext of being injured on the expedition, so that the emperor could let go of his worries about the Qi family's right to rebel.

In fact, after hibernation, look at the whole picture.

This time, he mentioned the matter of marriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, not really asking Qi Yuan to marry Yufu, but to see if the force against the Qi family would make a move.

But he didn't expect the Prime Minister to play the trick of changing the tanuki for the prince, and he didn't take the Qi family in his eyes at all.

In this scene, what about Qi Yuan playing with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

……

It was almost dawn when Yu Zixuan returned to Ziqiong Garden, and when she saw that the courtyard was almost swept away, a sneer curled up at the corner of her mouth.

I'm afraid that the people in the long house have decided that she can't escape the fire, so they let the yard be cleaned up.

She helped Fang Qin to push open the door, and there was a sudden clang inside.

Xiu Tao, who was still rummaging for anything valuable, saw that she came back alive, her face turned pale with shock, and the porcelain in her hand also fell to the ground and shattered.

"Six...... Miss Six. She hurriedly squatted down to clean up the debris, not daring to look at Yu Zixuan's face: "The slave maid's hand is slippery, please calm the lady's anger." ”

Leng Rui's gaze fell on her trembling shoulder: "You can't do such a small thing, what's the use of keeping you, huh?" ”

"The slave must be more careful in the future, and she will never do anything wrong again."

After Yu Zixuan helped Fang Qin to the bed and placed it, she turned around indifferently and dragged out Xiu Tao, who was kneeling on the ground.

This sudden pull, Xiu Tao didn't have time to resist at all, and the whole person was kicked down the steps and rolled on the ground several times before stopping.

When she was still dizzy, Yu Zixuan was already standing in front of her with a wooden stick in the corner.

"Miss Six...... Ah, Miss Six, you went around the slave! After four or five blows in a row, Xiu Tao rolled her eyes in pain.

Her shouts immediately drew onlookers from the rest of the minions' rooms.

Seeing that Miss Six, who had been bullied and weak before, was so ruthless when she taught her subordinates, they were all shocked when they saw it, and they didn't dare to stand up and speak at all.

I can only go to the courtyard of the long house and report the matter.

Within a cup of tea, Yufu appeared at the door of Ziqiong Garden with people.

The two big girls who were waiting beside them, without saying a word, rushed in and were about to grab the stick in Yu Zixuan's hand, but they were kicked by Yu Zixuan on the left and right, volleyed their backs, and fell directly to the ground.

A. The movements were clean and neat, and Yufu was dumbfounded.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that would have come back alive.

It's just that everything that has happened since last night is full of weirdness, and she suspects that the Yu Zixuan in front of her is not the one she knows at all!

The two clusters of willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and looked at the two useless girls dissatisfied, simply losing her face!

But thinking of Yu Zixuan's ruthlessness in beating people just now, she still didn't dare to get too close.

"Sixth sister, you punished the maid I gave you in private, didn't you take me as the eldest sister in your eyes?"

"The eldest sister said that this maid was given to me, and the maid who punished herself couldn't take the turn of an unrelated person to point fingers." Before the words fell, another heavy stick fell on Xiu Tao's shoulder.

Only a crisp click was heard.

It's the sound of bones breaking.

Xiu Tao fainted in pain on the spot, and the wound on her arm continued to bleed out.

Seeing her shouting like this, Yufu's whole delicate face was extremely ugly.

She is playing Xiu Tao now, which is equivalent to slapping herself in the face, and she wants to make the whole long room ugly!

It's just a mourning star who has been sent out since childhood, a cheap billet, why do you show your face in the Prime Minister's Mansion!
