Outside the side hall of Zhengchun Palace, Tianxuan wanted to break in several times, but was blocked by the raging fire, and his expression was extremely anxious.

Suddenly, a large group of palace maids and eunuchs came over with pots and pots, shouting: "Fight the fire!" ”

Tianxuan hurriedly dodged and hid to prevent people from discovering him, but found that those people were just shouting in their mouths, but there was no movement in their hands at all, and his heart sank suddenly: the master ordered him to come, obviously to protect Mu Yunlan, if something happened to her here......

In the room, Mu Yunlan lowered her body and hid in the corner of the wall, covering her lips to prevent the smoke from choking, but her eyes looked at the firelight without the slightest fear, as if she was enjoying the scenery instead of facing life and death:

She doesn't have any strength at all now, and it is already the limit to be able to move to this temporarily safe place, and she can't break the deliberately sealed doors and windows, so she can only hope that someone will quickly put out the fire.

Concubine Jin is going to burn her alive!

If she is lucky not to die today, she will definitely take revenge on this revenge!

Tian Xuan waited anxiously outside, his eyes swept over the door of Zhengchun Palace, and his eyes widened in shock: "Master! "Why is the master here?

Yue Jingxuan didn't wear a cloak, a layer of snowflakes fell on his hair and shoulders, and when he saw the scene in the side hall, the cold in his narrow phoenix eyes was worse than ice and snow: "As a subordinate, I don't know how to fight fires, I only shout and scream, which is regarded as dereliction of duty, and if you come, you will be killed on the spot!" ”

The palace people were stunned when they saw Yue Jingxuan, and they couldn't stop trembling with fright after hearing him say it: "King Ning'an spares his life, and the slave and maid are wronged!" ”

"Lord forgive me, the fire is too big, there is no way to save it."

Tianxuan no longer hid, and came out directly to cooperate with Tianshu, and killed the shouting palace people on the spot with a knife in his hand!

The firelight reflected in the pupils, stabbing people's eyes with pain, Yue Jingxuan had a cold face, and strode towards the side hall.

"Master!" Tianshu and Tianxuan suddenly stepped forward and knelt on the ground, blocking his steps, "Master, it's too dangerous, you can't get close, your subordinates go in and rescue Miss Mu." ”

Yue Jingxuan shook off the two of them with one sleeve, hooked the long sword in his hand on the tip of his toes, and poured out the thick internal force, slashing at the burning temple door!

"Boom!" The heavy doors of the temple fell, and sparks crackled in all directions.

Mu Yunlan, who was in the fog, barely opened her eyes, only to see a slender figure coming by the firelight.

The time seemed to be extraordinarily long, she watched him break through the flames, step by step in front of her, the cold hand touched her cheeks, with the faint cold fragrance of plum blossoms, she tried to raise the corners of her lips, trying to give him a big smile: thank you......

Yue Jingxuan stroked her cheek and paused slightly, the person in her hand was hot, although she was unconscious, she was still laughing with the corners of her lips, revealing a wordless stupidity.

"Like a fool!" He bent down and hugged the person in his arms, and quickly rushed out of the sea of fire under the protection of Tianshu and Tianxuan.

In the Yonghe Palace, Yue Jingyun was very embarrassed when he heard the guard's report: "What are you talking about, Zhengchun Palace is on fire?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the fire is burning very badly, and King Ning'an is also there."

"What did you say?" Yue Jingyun stood up abruptly.

Concubine Jin on the side couldn't hold it steadily, and directly dropped the tea cup in her hand, she just asked people to lead Mu Yunlan over, why did King Ning An appear in Zhengchun Palace? It's just that at this time, no one noticed her movements.

Yue Jingyun strode towards the outside of the hall: "Go quickly, put out the fire!" ”

Yue Jingxuan deserves to die, but he must not die directly in the palace, he has been operating in Yunnan for eight years, and there are countless elite soldiers under him, once something happens to him, those soldiers and horses in Yunnan will definitely rise up!

In the past two years, the Great Yong Kingdom seems to be calm, but many places have been affected by disasters one after another, the grain has been in arrears for two years, and the grassland Yunrou and the Western Chu Kingdom are eyeing each other, and his throne is not stable.

Concubine Jin followed Yue Jingyun and walked forward quickly, and when she left the palace gate, she stumbled and was held by Yue Xiaohan's arm: "Mother, Yun Lan is in your palace?" ”

Concubine Jin looked at him faintly, and bit her word by word: "You are the son of this palace!" "So at this time, what should be concerned about is how to help her escape this catastrophe, not what Mu Yunlan cares about! Thinking about it, the disgust for Mu Yunlan in his heart was even worse.

Yue Xiaohan's breath was suffocated, he had the impression that Concubine Jin had always been gentle and peaceful, giving him the most perfect expectation of his mother, but now her expression was condensed, and her face was almost a little distorted: "Mother concubine ......"

Concubine Jin seemed to realize that she was too excited, bit her lip slightly, stabilized her emotions, and quickly followed the emperor's footsteps.

Yue Jingyun hurried to the Zhengchun Palace, the side hall had been completely burned to ruins, and the main hall had also burned more than half.

"Ah, death...... Dead man......"

Everyone looked down at the ground, took a deep breath, and held back not to retreat.

I saw corpses lying on the ground, roughly nearly 20 people, each of whom was killed with a knife, and the death was crisp and neat. The snowflakes fell, masking the smell of blood, so much so that they didn't realize anything unusual when they walked in.

Yue Jingyun's face was extremely pale, and his clenched fists couldn't stop trembling slightly: "What's going on?" ”

In the shadows, Yue Jingxuan walked out step by step, the blue brocade dress on his body was stained with some stains, and the edge of his sleeves was also burned off by fire, but these did not affect his coldness and nobility at all, he walked out step by step, like a god coming from the darkness, which made people can't help but rise from a wave of awe and worship in their hearts.

Concubine Jin restrained her emotions to the death, so she didn't show anything unusual, but the hand covered by her sleeves trembled slightly, showing the unrest in her heart.

"Fifteenth Brother ......" Yue Jingyun found his voice back, and his heart was full of hatred and disgust.

Yue Jingxuan's current appearance is exactly the same as the previous emperor, when he was still the prince, he looked at the former emperor holding the six-year-old Yue Jingxuan with a proud smile on his face, praised him for never forgetting, praised him for being decisive and brave, praised him for having the style of a father, he had never seen the former emperor praise anyone like this.

"Brother Huang, I really can't imagine that your concubine is so courageous." Yue Jingxuan tidied up his sleeves, and his cold gaze fell on Concubine Jin.

Concubine Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and took the lead in asking, "King Ning'an, why did you appear in the Zhengchun Palace......

"This is going to ask the palace maid next to you, didn't you ask Fan Tao to find this king?"

What the?!

Yue Jingyun turned his head suddenly, his eyes were like knives: "Concubine Jin, what's going on?" ”

Concubine Jin pinched herself fiercely, her eyes turned red in an instant, and she knelt straight in front of Yue Jingyun: "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know anything, Fan Tao is the palace maid who serves by the concubine's side, but the concubine has never given her any orders, and the concubine has been accompanying you at the banquet, you know ......"

Seeing that Yue Jingyun was silent, the expression on Concubine Jin's face became more and more pitiful and helpless: "Besides, the concubine and King Ning'an have no intersection, how could they find him to come to Zhengchun Palace so late?" Your Majesty, you have to be clear, if you can't find out, what face do the concubines have to live in this world? ”

Yue Xiaohan stepped forward and knelt beside Concubine Jin: "Father, there was an accident at the banquet, the fifteenth emperor uncle left suddenly, and after leaving, he was tricked into going to Zhengchun Palace, and Zhengchun Palace caught fire again, is this too much of a coincidence?" ”

After he finished speaking, he looked up at Yue Jingxuan, but saw that he was turning his head to look behind him, he looked down and saw Mu Yunlan who was being helped out, and his heart sank suddenly: "Uncle Fifteen, you shouldn't want the real murderer to get away with it, right?" ”

Yue Jingxuan said lightly: "The imperial brother's harem is complicated, I really can't figure it out. ”

Concubine Jin's eyes were full of tears, and her voice was extremely aggrieved: "Your Majesty, how can this weather be on fire, someone must have done it deliberately, since the concubine was exempted from palace affairs, she has been living in a simple house and thinking about it behind closed doors." The concubines have a clear conscience, and if the emperor does not believe it, he can order someone to carefully interrogate and search. ”

She has just seen that the little eunuch who set fire to the palace on her orders is dead, and there is no proof of death, she is not afraid of investigation at all, she is afraid that the emperor will not investigate, because even if there are any clues in the investigation, it will point to Concubine Li!

The second prince has already found fault at the banquet twice in a row, and there is a good reason to find trouble again this time, isn't it?

Yue Jingyun was angry in his heart, he knew that the harem was not restless, but something happened on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and he also lost face in front of Yue Jingxuan, which made him pay special attention:

"This matter naturally has to be investigated well, before it is clear, Concubine Jin moved to Lan Chunxuan, and she is not allowed to go out without my will, Concubine Li and Concubine Lan are not good at managing palace affairs, and they will be punished for half a year, and they will copy the palace rules a hundred times......"

"Then let's do it first, and then deal with it after the investigation is clear." Yue Jingxuan looked at Mu Yunlan, "I was able to get out of danger this time, and thanks to the fourth miss of the Mu family, she was injured and unconscious, and her younger brother sent someone to send her back." ”

"Okay." Yue Jingyun said a good word, and the cold air overflowed.

After dealing with this side of the matter, it was already over, and the new year began with a fire.

Yue Jingxuan took Mu Yunlan back to Ningyue Pavilion, and after stepping into the door, the indifference of the forced pretense faded, and he couldn't help but cover his chest and arch his body, and the severe pain penetrated into his limbs, as if tearing apart and piecing together life, every minute and every second was torture.

On the bed, Mu Yunlan slowly opened her eyes, and was stunned for a while before coming back to her senses: Yue Jingxuan! It was Yue Jingxuan who saved her, she remembered the cold fragrance of plum blossoms before she fainted!

Sitting up, he saw Yue Jingxuan half-leaning on the soft couch with a pale face, Mu Yunlan hurriedly struggled and walked over, kneeling beside him: "How are you?" ”

Yue Jingxuan was already delirious in pain, and when he heard the voice, he slowly opened his eyes, and his clear eyes had a barren and lonely color, and Mu Yunlan's heart tightened.

Thinking of the actions her mother would do when she comforted her before, Mu Yunlan pursed her lips, took Yue Jingxuan's hand, held it vigorously regardless of the wound on her hand, and said softly: "It's okay, it's okay......"

The warmth passed from the palm of his hand to his arm, and Yue Jingxuan, who had been walking alone in the dark, suddenly had a sense of finding redemption......

"Mu Yunlan ......"
