Chapter 517: The Great Fire in the Capital (2)

On October 23, the dark clouds covered the sky in the capital, and the north wind was cold, rolling up dust and sand, which blew everyone's eyes and hearts.

Soon a heavy snowfall is coming.

The snow falls silently, but once the snow falls, the weather gets colder and the days get harder.

Chu Jingchuan has not heard from Chu Jingchuan for ten days, she doesn't know what the situation outside is, but she can guess...... The emperor has not attacked for a long time, presumably, he must have some plan in his heart? And Chu Jingchuan will not attack rashly, he will definitely defend instead of attacking, step by step to strengthen the defense of the capital.

Recently, there have been a lot fewer guards in the palace, and I heard that they have all been transferred

There are people in the city shouting every day that there is going to be a war, but no one knows for sure when the nightmare will begin?

Maybe it's tomorrow, maybe it's the day after tomorrow......

Meng Xilan's plan was almost planned, the charcoal fire and lamp oil were carefully stored by her, and the amount was not enough, if she wanted a raging fire in the palace, she also needed a good weather.

Just as Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind back then, she needed a dry and windy sunny day. However, it is snowing again in the capital. Wet weather is the most unfavorable.

Meng Xilan had a heart hanging and had to decide to do it early, but Gao Fuli stopped her: "Niangniang, it's not time to ...... yet."

Meng Xilan tightened her eyebrows and said, "If this heavy snow falls, the palace walls and houses will become damp, and this fire will not burn." ”

If the fire was too small, or if it didn't burn at all, her plan would have been in vain.

Meng Xilan looked up at the sky: "God won't help me, we can only help ourselves." ”

Gao Fu still felt that it was not safe, and the guards in the palace had indeed been transferred a lot, but the manpower outside the palace had not been reduced. Moreover, they did not have enough lamp oil and charcoal fire, and the manpower arrangement was also a problem.

In the eyes of Niangniang, it seems that there is only one suitable time left, but in the eyes of Gao Welfare, what they lack is not a little bit.

"Niangniang, the minion feels that now is not the time, please give the minion a few more days, and let the minion prepare everything properly."

Gao Fuli's eyes were full of eagerness, Meng Xilan looked at him, thought for a moment, and then said, "Wait any longer, the snow is coming." ”

"Niangniang, the road to heaven is endless......"

As soon as his words fell, Zhulu outside the door suddenly exclaimed, "Niangniang, it's snowing......"

The three masters and servants raised their eyes one after another, and sure enough, snowflakes fell from the sky.

Meng Xilan's shoulders trembled, and she slowly came to the window, looked at the falling snowflakes, and sighed: "What an endless road......

God seems to have given her another problem, a big problem.

Gao Fuli stood behind his master, secretly clenching his fists.

"Damn it!" He didn't care about the rules, and cursed secretly.

Meng Xilan sighed, and then said, "If you don't want to wait, you have to wait." ”

The snow was falling, and they had to wait.

It snowed for three days. Meng Xilan was also anxious for three days.

As a human being in two lives, she has never felt that waiting for a sunny day is such a difficult thing.

After the heavy snowfall, people in the palace died of typhoid fever one after another, and they were sent out of the palace one by one, and they were not allowed to be burned in the palace again.

Jiao Changqing prepared the pills that Niangniang needed, a total of two, one is a black pill that can make people appear to fake death, and the other is a white pill that can make the user wake up, the interval between the two should not exceed an hour, otherwise, the user may never wake up.

The effect of this medicine is very dangerous, it can save people and harm people.

Jiao Changqing said to Meng Xilan: "Weichen only made a pair of medicines, so as not to be too ostentatious and attract unnecessary attention. ”

Meng Xilan nodded, agreeing with his caution.

"Where is the thing now?"

Jiao Changqing lowered his head: "In the Tai Hospital, it is too dangerous to carry it with you." ”

"Niangniang, when should Weichen hand it over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Meng Xilan thought for a moment before saying, "On the day of the plan, if the crown prince can't successfully escape from the palace, then this pill will come in handy." ”

This was the last hand, allowing Changsheng to blend in with the dead corpse and be sent out of the palace.

Jiao Changqing lowered his eyes: "Niangniang has planned everything for His Royal Highness the Prince, but what about yourself?" Have you thought about your own back road? ”

Meng Xilan took a deep breath: "As long as the prince is fine, there will be a way back in this palace." ”

"If Weichen remembers correctly, there is still something important in Niangniang's hand, the edict ......"

Meng Xilan's heart tightened: "The edict is still in my hands, but I won't give it to the prince." ”

In her heart, there are obviously other plans.

After the snow stopped, Meng Xilan deliberately glanced at Song Qing'er.

Her face was pale and sickly, and her eyes were slightly glazed.

Meng Xilan was afraid that she was sick, but the palace maid beside her said no, and someone from the hospital had already come to see her.

In her state, I'm afraid it's hard to take care of her sister.

"Niangniang...... Song Qing'er walked up to her step by step, and said in a low tone: "Can you think of any way?" ”

Meng Xilan's eyes flickered: "This palace is still thinking." ”

Song Qing'er suddenly became excited when she heard this, grabbed her hand, and said vigorously: "It's too late...... It's going to be too late! ”

I don't know when such a frightened and frightened day will end?

Song Qing'er couldn't hold on anymore, she felt that she was about to be defeated by fear.

Meng Xilan brushed her hand away and comforted her: "Don't panic. ”

"When? Wait until everyone in the palace is killed by typhoid fever? Meng Xilan, you are the queen, you are the queen! Where is your awesomeness and calculation? Where's your ability to intrigue? ”

The more Song Qing'er spoke, the more excited she became, and she gradually became a little unstable.

The palace maid behind her held her up, bowed her head and said, "Don't be surprised, my master has been unwell recently and has not slept well, so he is so uneasy......

Meng Xilan looked at Song Qing'er's weak lying appearance, and shook her head secretly.

"Where's the princess?"

"The princess is playing with the grandmothers in the inner sanctum."

At the mention of her daughter, Song Qing'er became excited again: "Niangniang, please take her away and take her out of the palace!" ”

Meng Xilan was slightly stunned when she heard this. What she was most afraid of before was that she would take her sister away.

"...... I beg you, concubine, if you have the means, you must take her away. ”

Song Qing'er bit her fingers as she spoke, looking panicked, a little scary.

Meng Xilan frowned and thought about it, and said half-loudly: "Okay, this palace will take her back to take care of her." ”

She wouldn't tell her about her plans, let alone tell her that she did have a way to send her sister out of the palace.

The mothers covered the girl tightly, revealing only a small face.

Meng Xilan personally reached out to take her over, her eyes were timid, and she seemed to recognize her life a little.

Children are like that, if you don't get close to them often, they will gradually forget about you and stop being close to you.

"The queen mother will take you back to the palace." Meng Xilan patted her on the back and whispered to reassure.

Song Qing'er suddenly laughed when she saw her daughter in her arms. "Take her away, take her away......"

Meng Xilan looked at her and said lightly: "Take care of yourself." ”

Song Qing'er muttered to herself, always repeating one sentence: "Take her away...... Take her away......"

Meng Xilan left with her sister in her arms, and when she walked to the gate of the palace, she looked back at Song Qing'er with a little hesitation.

She was still in the same state of flux, her eyes glazed over, and her mouth was full of words.

Meng Xilan only felt a chill, she used to be such a strong and arrogant person, but unfortunately now she ...... She has been destroyed by despair and fear, and she is no longer the same person she once was.

The cold wind was cold, Meng Xilan hugged her sister all the way, she was very obedient, nestled in her arms and did not move.

Although she is still young, she may not know what is going on in the palace, but she still has her own sensitive intuition, and she still has her own sensitive intuition, and she has a gut feeling that something is wrong.

After returning to the palace, an uninvited guest was waiting for her.

Wei Feng, the last person Meng Xilan wants to see now is him.

Looking at the little princess she was holding in her arms, Wei Fengren's eyes seemed to be faintly surprised.

"General Wei, why are you here?"

Meng Xilan hid her thoughts, and her tone was not good.

Wei Feng didn't answer, and pointed to the child in her arms: "Niangniang, what do you mean?" ”

Meng Xilan was afraid that he would be disrespectful and scare her sister, so she handed her over to Zhulu.

"It's none of your business."

Wei Feng didn't stop Zhu Lu, and said coldly: "The things in this palace are all related to me. ”

"This palace is the royal mother of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and it is normal to take her over for a few days. The palace is in chaos like this now, the child is too young, so scared! ”

This is not a good reason, but it is enough to dispel Wei Feng's curiosity.

In his eyes, she has always been a person who does not measure herself, and she is not missing one more stupid thing.

Wei Feng really sneered, and then said: "I'm here to inform Niangniang that early tomorrow morning, I will escort Her Royal Highness Princess Wuwu out of the palace." ”

It's no longer safe in this palace, and it's only going to get more and more dangerous in the future.

Worry-free has not yet come out of confinement, and it stands to reason that you should not walk around in the wind. It's just that the situation in front of them is such that they can't wait any longer.

Meng Xilan's heart sank slightly, she knew that it was a matter of time or time.

"Okay, this palace will prepare it for her personally."

Wei Feng accepted it when he saw her so calm, but he felt very bored.

"After dawn tomorrow, I will personally come to pick up Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Meng Xilan nodded slightly and stopped talking.

She hoped that he would leave as soon as possible, lest he have any more ideas.

Worry-free should not have returned to the palace, if there was no her these days, the situation in the palace would only get worse.

She's done so much more for her, she can't take advantage of her anymore. She must leave before the palace catches fire. Unlike Changsheng, she can leave justifiably.

Meng Xilan went to the worry-free dormitory, and saw that she was holding the child and teasing her affectionately, the smile on her face was so sweet and gentle, but it made her heart slightly sour.
