Needless to say, just hearing the words "safe and sound", Meng Xilan's eyes instantly softened, and her shoulders slowly drooped, and then, she looked at him and suddenly smiled. "What's wrong with your face?"

His face was covered with black ashes, and his forehead seemed to be wounded, and he looked a little embarrassed.

Jiao Changqing frowned, sensing her abnormality.

Meng Xilan was still smiling, laughing and laughing, tears suddenly burst out of her eyes, tears were staggered, and Ying Ying spread most of her face.

"Princess......" Jiao Changqing knelt down in his robe, saluted and pleaded: "Weichen made the decision without authorization, making the princess frightened, and hoping that the princess would atone for her sins." ”

"No, adults get up, ......" Meng Xilan tightly twisted his sleeves with her ten fingers, trying to pull him up, but unfortunately she didn't have enough strength, and finally simply fell to the ground on her knees and knelt face to face with him: "My lord has saved me three times, this kindness, I am destined to be unable to repay it in this life." ”

Yes, she owes him so much.

When everyone saw this, they were all stunned, and hurriedly knelt down together.

Jiao Changqing shook his head again and again: "Princess, please hurry up, Weichen can't stand it." ”

Meng Xilan smiled: "I have no strength." ”

After a whole day's suffering, she was already exhausted. Not only her, but everyone who survived at this time was the same burnout and exhaustion.

The people in the village were frightened by these outsiders. Only Jiao Changqing came forward to explain that he could temporarily calm the panicked hearts of the villagers.

Meng Xilan looked at the number of people, only to feel that something was wrong, so she asked about the details of what happened last night.

Jiao Changqing's face sank: "Someone deliberately set fire, although Weichen had a plan, he was still a step late." Now, in that camp, I am afraid that there is nothing left left. We have lost a lot of things, Imperial Doctor Zhang, Imperial Doctor Wang...... Also, hundreds of human lives ......" He didn't want to mention the word "death" in his heart, he was a doctor who should have saved people's lives, but he didn't want to, he wanted to watch so many people die in the fire and could not do anything.

Meng Xilan took a deep breath, her eyes condensed, and said: "The prince is really vicious, it is not enough for him to ask for the prince's life, and so many people have to be martyred for his ambitions." ”

Jiao Changqing's expression changed when he heard this, he looked around, and said in a low voice: "The princess can't talk nonsense. ”

If this kind of words fall into the ears of those who have a heart, will they not cause trouble again?

Meng Xilan's eyes were clear, "I only said this when I treat adults as my own." Adults are clear-minded, presumably you have seen a lot of power and profit in the palace. The prince is sick and the prince is anxious, so we will have this disaster. ”

In fact, even if she didn't say it herself, Jiao Changqing knew that the instigator behind the arson would be the crown prince.

"This fire is burning, and the palace must be in chaos. My lord, is there a way to contact the prince? ”

Since his father and brother are fine, the most important thing at the moment is Zhou Youlin's safety.

Jiao Changqing shook his head slightly: "There is no way for the time being." However, with Lord Meng here, the prince is naturally safe and sound. ”

They don't go too far, and eighty percent of them still live in seclusion in nearby villages and towns, and they have heard about the fires.

Meng Xilan secretly clenched her fists. "This fire, I don't know how many people will be worried!"

If the palace sent people out of the city to check, and they couldn't see Zhou Youlin or themselves, they would definitely think that they had died in vain......

What will happen to the harem? What about the Meng family?

Jiao Changqing knew what she was thinking: "Don't worry, princess, Weichen has already sent a letter to the Anguo Mansion." ”

Meng Xilan's heart moved when she heard this, and she only smiled at him and nodded: "Thank you, my lord." It's just that the adults have sent a letter back to the palace? ”

"No, Wechen hasn't yet." Jiao Changqing pondered for a moment before he said.

Meng Xilan looked at him in the eye, puzzled.

His personality has always been meticulous, and he will not be so unorganized.

Weichen did not send a message back to the palace, but because of the word "risk". The fire made people panic. Long live the Lord and the ladies are also in torment now, and Weichen is worried that someone will take advantage of the chaos and design to frame the princess and the prince. ”

To tell the truth, with their current manpower alone, they are either wounded or sick, even if they are sturdy, after this day and night of tossing, they need to recover, how can they deal with dangerous things again.

Meng Xilan thought about it carefully, and also felt that his prudence was actually understandable. "Your Adult is rightly worried, and it's ridiculous to say it...... In the palace, the prince is majestic, and I am also hugging from front to back, but unfortunately once I leave the palace, I am nothing, and it is difficult to even save my life! ”

Jiao Changqing sighed lightly: "Don't worry, princess. People are watching the sky, not to mention, there is no endless way for the sky. ”

escaped death twice in a row, such luck must have been given by God.

Meng Xilan's eyes condensed slightly: "What the adults said is right. Since the matter has come to this point, it is better to delay it for a while, and think about it in the long run. ”

Far water can't save a near fire. The fire outside the palace was extinguished, but the fire in the palace must have just burned.

There was a fire on the outskirts of the city, and Prince Xian and Princess Wenning were dead and dead.

The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were also shocked, only to feel that there was a reason for the incident.

Zhou Youping knew that he was taking a risk and made a risky move, so he simply had Zhou Shili to take care of him.

The fire burned well and burned. He didn't believe it, Zhou Youlin still had his life to come back...... Moreover, it has all been reduced to ashes, and there is no proof that everything is dead.

After retiring from the dynasty, Zhou Shixian fell ill in the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, and the cause was excessive worry.

He has been unable to eat or sleep recently, and he is troubled by the affairs of the Changqing Palace, the epidemic and Zhou Youlin...... He claims to be the Son of Heaven, why does God always have trouble with him, is it really Concubine Xiao's soul that is causing trouble, and it is because her resentment is too heavy that she will make the palace unhappy.

Could this really be retribution?

Knowing that his father was ill, Zhou Youping almost laughed out loud in the Mingde Palace.

Chu Jingwen stood at the door, looking at the smile on the corner of his mouth, and his back felt cold.

Everyone in the palace is rumored that the fourth prince and Princess Wen Ning died tragically in the suburbs, but she doesn't believe it, she doesn't believe that Meng Xilan will die so inexplicably! Only now, she can be very sure that the unexpected fire must have something to do with the prince.

When the news inside and outside the palace was all messed up, Murong Qiao was still trying to hold on, she didn't listen to her family's advice, and she refused to believe that Zhou Youlin was dead.

Murong Qiao's eyes were red, as if he was a demonic barrier, and he muttered to himself: "You have to see the corpse when you die, and you have to see the person when you live." This palace doesn't believe those rumors, and this palace doesn't believe anything! ”

Just when she was exhausted, Chu Jingchuan, the imperial guard, gave her a word. "Lord Wan'an, live in seclusion in the suburbs, recuperate with peace of mind, and return to Beijing in a few days."

A few words, but it can make her instantly regain her spirit and relax her peace of mind.

Murong Qiao didn't know where Chu Jingchuan got the news, but she knew that the relationship between the Chu family and the Meng family was very close, and Chu Jingchuan was willing to send a message to her, so she must have gotten the news of the Meng family. Where did the news of the Meng family come from...... Needless to say, it must be Meng Xilan.

That's right, as long as she's okay, Lin'er will be fine.

The shadow of the epidemic has not yet dissipated, and the fire in the suburbs has added a bad omen to the palace. The queen mother and princess couldn't sleep with tears every night, and the emperor violated the dragon body, and even the early dynasty was deserted, so she had to be replaced by the prince and reviewed and folded.

In addition to the crown prince, there is only one person in the palace who can laugh, and that is Queen Su.

Without the stumbling block of Zhou Youlin, among the princes, the only person who can compete with the crown prince is the third prince Zhou Youan.

The smile on the corner of Queen Su's lips deepened and deepened. Who is behind this? She didn't care at all.

In the past, Zhou Youlin's light was too great, and he was always the only one who was in the limelight in front of the emperor, and others only served as a foil. But now, it is a good time for her emperor to flourish. As for Concubine Ning, Murong Qiao...... The prospect is even more bleak, without the prince in hand, she is just a "waste". Competing for favor is naturally impossible!

People in the palace are different, but Meng Xilan outside the palace has a rare two-day clean life with her father and second brother in the suburbs.

Zhangjia Village is located in a remote area, the villagers are simple, and they rarely see people.

Meng Xilan walked out of the grass hut for the first time, and looked at it, there was a green field in front of her, this would be the time to plant new seedlings, the villagers were busy working in the field every day, she had nothing to do, so she sat quietly on the side, watching them work in the field, busy figure.

Zhulu was puzzled, and couldn't help asking, "Miss, what are you looking at?" ”

Meng Xilan said lightly: "I'll see how they live." ”

"They are nothing more than rising at sunrise and resting at sunset, and they are busy planting and cultivating the land every day, so that they can have a good harvest in the coming year."

"Yes, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, it is light and simple."

I have to say that Meng Xilan's heart is faintly filled with envy for this simple life at this moment.

Nowadays, the simpler things are, the more rare they are. The days in the palace are luxurious and rich, but every day you have to calculate the gains and losses, and speculate on people's hearts, for fear that one will be used by others by accident and calculated......

"Miss, Master Jiao said, in less than three days, we can leave for the city." Zhulu was worried that she was in a bad mood, so she thought about saying something good to her.

"Zhulu, don't you think it's good here?" Meng Xilan replied lightly: "Actually, I'd rather my body get better slowly, so that we can stay a few more days." ”

"Miss ......" Zhulu came to her side and looked at the melancholy between her eyebrows: "If Miss doesn't like to return to the palace, it is better to ask the Queen Mother to let you go home, or marry Master Chu...... Anyway, there's always a way. ”

Meng Xilan shook her head lightly when she heard this: "The Queen Mother will not let me out of the palace easily, and Zhou Youlin, he will not let go of my ......"
