Chapter 224: Breaking Branches (16)
As they expected, although this is the origin of the fire, the fire is significantly smaller.
By this time, she had fully seen the situation here, the flame was extending from an east wing, and according to the maid who was fighting the fire back and forth, it was just an accidental walk.
Xi Gu'an didn't believe that there was nothing greasy in it, but the most important thing at the moment was to see what was wrong with Ling Xiqian.
Her footsteps did not stop, and she ran to Ling Xiqian's position in the direction guided by the system, but she forgot that there was a person behind her who wanted to harm her anytime and anywhere.
At this time, the system suddenly sounded in the head: "Host, watch out behind you!" β
Xi Gu'an's footsteps paused, only to feel a medium force behind him attack, and his body fell to the side uncontrollably, and the position next to him was the burning flame.
At that moment, Xi Gu'an wanted to dodge, but at this moment, she felt as if her body was out of control, completely unable to move. It was a strong emotion that came from the original owner's body, and it was the fear of fire engraved in his bones when he was five years old.
The tongue of fire had already burned to the arm, and Xi Gu'an snatched back control of his body, and forcibly deviated to the other side at the risk of breaking his foot, and this price was only burned to the position of the arm, and there was no major problem in other places.
The guards were stunned by such a sudden situation, and their faces became extremely ugly, worried that if something happened to the future princess, they would be criticized by the prince, but they were really derelict in their duties this time......
Xi Gu'an sighed lightly, although through the clothes, the effect of the flames was reduced from the dress, but the feeling of his arms being burned by the flames was still painful palpitations. She stood up, the clothes on her arm had been burned, and a red mark had been burned on her flesh, but fortunately, after comparing the fabrics of the clothes she was wearing today, when she raised her head, she happened to meet Xi Ruorui's vicious eyes, and the regret in her eyes flashed, and then changed back to a worried look.
"An An, are you okay?" Her voice trembled, and she seemed to be really anxious, "I'm sorry, I didn't see the stone under my feet just now, and I accidentally hit you." β
Of course, Xi Gu'an wouldn't believe this little white flower's words, but the most important thing now was to confirm Ling Xiqian's situation. At this time, there was a noisy sound of footsteps in front, followed by a pair of men and women in palace clothes. They were carrying barrels in their hands, apparently to put out the fire.
They were well prepared, and the fire was quickly brought under control, and they were all shocked when they saw the mess on this side.
"Miss Xi, are you okay?" This maid was by Xi Gu'an's side just now, and naturally recognized Princess Ning, who was personally admitted by His Royal Highness King Ning, and the surprise on her face was very obvious when she saw this young lady injured.
Xi Gu'an shook his head, and just wanted to ask about the traces of the others, he heard the girl say: "His Royal Highness King Ning and Her Royal Highness the Princess are in the side hall together, several people were injured just now, they invited someone from the Tai Hospital to come over for treatment, Miss, you can also go over and take a look, this is burned, it is not good to leave a scar." β
Xi Gu'an smiled slightly, nodded at him and thanked him, and walked in that direction. The remaining guards no longer dared to let Xi Gu'an out of their sight, and wrapped her tightly around her, although Xi Ruorui was anxious, he didn't have any chance to make a move.
The place where Ling Xiqian was located was a cold palace in the East Wing, where no one lived all day long, and it was a bit cold. Before I could get into the house, I heard a soft female voice.
"His Royal Highness King Ning, are you okay, I'm really sorry, it's all because I accidentally hurt you."
Xi Gu'an could clearly hear that it was the voice of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.
After a while, a deep male voice said, "It's nothing." β
"Your Highness, let me see your wounds, I'm a little worried."
"Men and women don't kiss, please go back for the time being, it's too dangerous here, if you come back at that moment, the minister can't guarantee that you will be fully protected."
"It's okay, I'll be born and die with you, after all, you're ...... for me"
"It's not for you," before the owner of the voice could finish speaking, the owner of the voice interrupted her words coldly, "In that case, no matter who it is, I will rescue you, and you don't have to worry about it." β
Yo, maybe this is not in public, this pile of Lang ruthless concubines is finally unable to contain it.
"Bang-" A sound alarmed the two people in the room, and the eldest princess shouted: "Who's outside?!" β
Xi Guan looked back at Xi Ruorui who staggered to open the door, her appearance was panicked, but obviously her eyes were full of expressions of good fun.
The door was pushed open directly, and Xi Guan walked into the room, and the first thing he saw was the man sitting on the wheeled car. His elbow was bandaged, apparently wounded. At this time, he lowered his head, and did not even glance at who entered the door. 61 Library
After seeing the visitor, the eldest princess's face became particularly ugly: "Why are you here?" β
Xi Guan has no good impression of this kind of woman who hooks up with a married man, meddles in other people's feelings, and is entangled. She raised her eyebrows and smiled at the eldest princess, "I'm a little worried about His Royal Highness King Ning, come and visit." β
Hearing this, Ling Xiqian, who had never reacted, suddenly raised his head, and the cold aura around him finally warmed up, but after seeing Xi Gu'an's torn and dirty clothes and exposed red flesh, his eyes instantly became fierce.
"What's going on?!" He was aggressive, but his target was the guards behind him.
They were all suppressed by the Lord's powerful aura and turned into quails, and they didn't dare to speak. In the end, a younger guard couldn't help but kneel down: "I'm sorry master, we originally left with Miss Xi, but it was surrounded by fire, and when we wanted to change places, Miss Xi didn't listen to the dissuasion and had to rush back......"
His tone was rather impulsive, obviously very dissatisfied with Xi Gu'an's restless behavior.
Ling Xiqian's face became even more ugly, and even the people in the room knelt on the ground.
"Get out." His words, though faint, carried an irresistible force. The guard's body shook and he looked up in disbelief.
Ling Xiqian said: "Take the punishment yourself." β
Xi Gu'an saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade: "It's me who wants to go ......" Before she finished speaking, she found that Ling Xiqian had already come to her, pinched her arm and looked left and right for a while, and scolded the imperial doctor on the side: "Don't come to the rescue soon!" β
The Imperial Doctor was trembling, almost kneeling. Seeing his old appearance, Xi Gu'an wanted to comfort him for a few words, so he was picked up by Ling Xiqian and put on the bed.
Fortunately, the burns are only on the surface, and the flesh is not burned, which cannot be compared with when I was a child. After doing a simple bandage, Ling Xiqian stuffed a bottle into the palm of her hand, and her tone was unexpectedly gentle: "This is the best gold sore medicine, the location of the wound should be carefully treated, otherwise it will not be good if the scar remains." β
Looking at his concerned eyes without any pretense, Xi Gu was a little depressed inexplicably: "Do you care so much about skin?" β
Ling Xiqian was stunned for a moment, completely unaware of where Xi Gu'an's counterattack came from. However, he didn't show the slightest irritation, and smiled lowly: "No." β
At this moment, there was another noisy sound outside the door, followed by a woman with her hair scattered. She looked extremely embarrassed, and when she saw the people in the room clearly, she couldn't help but pounce towards the place.
"His Royal Highness King Ning, there are assassins attacking in the harem!"
Xi Gu'an could see clearly that this was the daughter of the general who admired Ling Xiqian. Her clothes were very messy, obviously put on her body in a hurry, and she was a little out of place, and all the maids around her lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at them again.
Ling Xiqian flashed around very dexterously, and Gao Ruogu jumped into the air, with a distorted and embarrassed look on his face.
"Miss, please respect yourself." Ling Xiqian said lightly, "Please don't let my princess misunderstand." β
Hearing the word "princess" coming out of his mouth, Gao Ruogu finally couldn't bear it, and immediately raised his voice and said: "Impossible, she is just an ugly monster, how can she be Princess Ning?!" You've been deceived by this fox! β
Ling Xiqian's face instantly turned ugly, and he said coldly: "Miss Gao, if you say anything crazy to my princess again, I won't be polite." β
These words simply angered Gao Ruogu's last line of defense, and she rushed in the direction of Xi Gu'an like a madman who had lost her mind. Gao Ruogu screamed, "His Royal Highness King Ning, today I will let you see the true face of this woman. β
Her movements were so fast that Ling Xiqian only had time to grab her wrist, but unfortunately, as the daughter of a military general, she was obviously also good at kung fu.
Gao Ruogu had already been stimulated by the ambiguous scene between the two, and with his other hand, he directly ripped off Xi Gu'an's veil, exposing her to everyone.
At this moment, there was a dead silence all around, and all the people who wanted to watch the show, or the people who designed the scene, all widened their eyes and looked at this scene in disbelief.
"You...... Didn't your face burn? Xi Ruorui was the first to scream uncontrollably.
The purpose of her coming here was to let Xi Gu'an show her ugly appearance in front of everyone, so that this fiancΓ© was completely disgusted, and at the same time, she also cooperated with Gao Ruogu to let her successfully climb into Ling Xiqian's bed, but now, looking at this face in front of her that was more gorgeous than a normal person, her heart began to panic.
