Chapter 15: The Burning of the Study

Zhilan Palace, Yun Xiyue looked at Shui Qin who came back, and hurriedly asked, "How is it, have you inquired clearly?" ”

Shui Qin is the palace maid that Yun Qingyan saw before, "Princess Huiyu, the people in Yunwu Palace are very careful, the slaves and maids have always been outside Yunwu Palace, but they haven't found the opportunity to sneak in." Later, when the slave saw the eldest princess go back, she was afraid of being suspected, so she came back first. ”

"Waste, what's the use of asking you!" Yun Xiyue glared at Shui Qin.

"The princess forgives her sins." Shui Qin hurriedly spoke, "Although the slave maid didn't find anything, the slave maid inquired that the album on the eldest princess's side should be almost finished." ”

Hearing this, Yun Xiyue's face became even more ugly, "I didn't expect to really let her finish the painting, if she really showed off in front of everyone this time, I'm afraid that she won't take this princess in her eyes in the future." ”

"Princess, what now?" Shui Qin asked cautiously.

Yun Xiyue's face turned pale, and she suddenly thought of Liu Wushuang's previous words, and couldn't help but sneer, "Even if she finishes painting, isn't it still in the hands of her father, and it is not certain that there will be any mistakes in the middle!" ”

"What do you mean, princess?"

"You say, if something happens to Yunwu Palace tonight and the painting is gone, who can believe that Yun Qingyan is really painted."

Shui Qin hesitated for a moment, and understood what Yun Xiyue meant, "However, how do we know where the eldest princess put the painting." ”

Yun Xiyue glanced at Shui Qin dissatisfied, "So what are you still doing here, why don't you hurry up and inquire!" ”

Shui Qin's heart tightened, and he hurriedly responded: "Yes!" ”

Yun Xiyue coldly retracted her gaze, no matter what, it was impossible for her to let Yun Qingyan really get a good reputation!

……

Yunwu Palace, Yun Qingyan finished taking a bath and finishing dinner, so he went to bed early and lay down.

Qiu'er also knew that Yun Qingyan was too hard during this time, so she didn't bother her, silently blew out the candles, leaving only one lamp to illuminate, and then retreated, and the entire Yunwu Palace was quiet early.

It's just that I didn't expect that in the middle of the night, everyone was still asleep, and suddenly someone shouted that it was on fire.

When Yun Qingyan came out, the fire in the study was burning fiercely, and the palace people who came and went were busy fighting the fire.

Yun Qingyan commanded Qiu'er twice, and then stood lazily in the courtyard, looking at the fire in front of him.

Not long after Qiu'er left, the news that Yunwu Palace was on fire quickly spread in the palace, and Emperor Yun and Empress Chu learned the news and hurried over.

And Yun Xiyue was already impatiently waiting for the news, and after learning that Emperor Yun had passed, she also went to the theater under the guise of caring.

"Yan'er, are you alright?" As soon as Empress Chu entered Yunwu Palace, she immediately looked for Yun Qingyan everywhere, and was not relieved until she saw that Yun Qingyan was safe and sound.

"Queen Mother, Father, my daughter is fine, why are you here?" Yun Qingyan smiled and spoke, but his heart was full of understanding.

"I heard that Yunwu Palace is on fire, I and your queen mother can't rest assured, so I came to take a look. You kid too, the palace is on fire, and you're still staying in this courtyard, what if something happens! Although Emperor Yun was a little reprimanded, his tone was full of concern.

"Father, don't worry, my daughter is really fine, but it's a little strange to think that this study suddenly caught fire, so I just watched it here for a while."

"Good look, how could there be a fire in this study?" Empress Chu frowned, "Fortunately, this time it's the study, and if it burns, it will burn, if the dormitory is on fire, what should I do!" ”

As soon as Empress Chu's words fell, before Yun Qingyan could speak, she heard Yun Xiyue's voice from the gate of the courtyard.

"I heard that it's on fire, is the imperial sister okay?" Yun Xiyue had a bit of pretended concern in her tone, and when she saw that Emperor Yun and Empress Chu were also there, she hurriedly saluted again.

"I've seen my father, the queen mother."

Emperor Yun nodded, "You also heard the news of the fire, so you rushed over?" ”

"That's right, I heard that Yunwu Palace is on fire, and my daughter is really worried about the imperial sister, so I came over to take a look." Yun Xiyue opened her mouth with a smile, thinking in her heart that this wave was really not a loss.

Not only can you take a good look at Yun Qingyan's jokes, but you can also show it in front of Emperor Yun.

Emperor Yun nodded, clearly satisfied with Yun Xiyue's reaction.

"Sister Huang, the study accidentally caught fire, it is really dangerous, you have to be more careful in the future." Yun Xiyue looked at Yun Qingyan and gave Yun Qingyan a provocative look where Emperor Yun couldn't see.

Yun Qingyan raised her eyebrows, "How does the imperial sister know that it was an accidental fire?" ”

Yun Xiyue was stunned and said with a smile: "Could it be that the imperial sister still thinks that someone dares to set fire to your palace, I'm afraid that the palace people accidentally didn't blow out the candles, so they caught fire!" ”

"Not necessarily." Yun Qingyan shook his head and raised his voice slightly, "Bring people up." ”

Yun Xiyue was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, Qiu'er and two little eunuchs immediately walked in with a person.

"Yan'er, what's going on?" Empress Chu frowned.

"After enlightening my father and queen mother, when it was just nightfall today, my daughter found that someone was sneaking around in my palace, so my daughter made people pay attention, and not long after the fire, I really caught this little eunuch." Yun Xiyue glanced at Qiu'er, and Qiu'er immediately spoke.

"Emperor Qiqi, Queen Mother, Princess, just after the study caught fire, this person wanted to take advantage of everyone to fight the fire and get out of Yunwu Palace, but he happened to be recognized by the slave maid, and he was not a person in Yunwu Palace at all."

"Bastard!" Emperor Yun's face instantly turned ugly, "Tell me honestly, did you set fire to the eldest princess's palace?" ”

The eunuch's face had long been pale, and now his legs were even weaker when he heard this questioning, and if he hadn't been held by his arm, he would have been so frightened that he would have knelt on the ground.

"Minion, minion......" The eunuch didn't dare to speak.

"You slave don't hurry up and explain honestly, if you dare to hide a little, you will definitely not be spared!" Empress Chu also scolded sharply, "If you dare to conceal it, I will directly throw you to the Shen Criminal Division, and then see if you can recruit or not!" ”

"The emperor spares his life, the queen spares his life!" Beads of sweat rolled down the eunuch's forehead, "The slave confessed honestly, the slave came to set fire only on the order of the third princess." ”

Yun Xiyue was nervous when she saw someone being arrested, and she was relieved to find that this little eunuch didn't know her. But he never thought that the other party would identify him as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You dog minion, you dare to talk nonsense and slander this princess!"

"Your Majesty, the queen mother, what the slave said is the truth, the slave really came to this Yunwu Palace on the order of the third princess, otherwise give the slave a thousand, ten thousand guts, and the slave will not dare to commit a crime and hurt the eldest princess!"
