One hundred and ninety-four, the loss of love

One hundred and ninety-four, the loss of love

Gonggong Zheng stumbled and ordered someone to find the captain of the guard, and at the same time sent someone to see if the door of the cold palace was open. Reading artifact.

In Emperor Wang's anxiety, the result soon came: two guards on night duty and the eunuch Zhong Gonggong, the steward of the cold palace, were found in the woods near the cold palace, they were still unconscious, their mouths were tightly stuffed with rags, and they were tied to a big tree.

Finally woke them up, and after asking for a long time, Gonggong Zhong slept in bed well, and he didn't know why he was suddenly gagged and tied in the woods, and the two guards were suddenly knocked unconscious from behind when they were on duty at night, and they didn't know how they were gagged and tied in the woods.

And when the iron gate of the cold palace and other firefighters arrived, it was still locked from the outside, and the flames inside were so fierce that it was impossible to approach.

The most terrifying thing is that there are all kinds of signs that the cold palace was sprinkled with gasoline, so the fire burned so violently and quickly, and when the palace found that it was rushed to fight the fire, the periphery of the cold palace was no longer approachable, if the master and servant of Lanxi were really locked inside, I am afraid that the bones would have been burned long ago.

Emperor Wangdi looked at the raging fire, his eyes were split, and he shouted, "Lanxi!" He fainted.

At dawn, the fire in the cold palace was finally extinguished, and everything was reduced to ashes except for a pile of rotten bricks. At the door of the main house, a few charred bones were barely discerned, and there were some molten gold and silver in the ashes.

It should be that their master and servant found the fire and hurriedly carried the gold and silver to escape, but because the gasoline around the house was sprinkled, the whole house had been sealed by the raging fire, and they stood at the door but could not step into the sky, they could only be burned to death by the fire, or they were simply knocked unconscious and placed at the door, and the suspect could stun the strong guards, what about the two weak women?

Emperor Wangyi couldn't afford to be ill, and the queen was ordered to investigate the fire, but Princess Kexin assisted. The shrewd and capable queen quickly found out that the fire was simply man-made. The guards and stewards and eunuchs were knocked unconscious and tied up, the gate was firmly locked, and a large amount of gasoline was sprinkled in the cold palace.

As for who did it, of course, there was no way to find out the results so quickly, because there was no monitoring around the cold palace at all, and there was no way to know who Lan Xi, who had been locked in the harem for three years, had such a big hatred with him, so this matter had to be closed, and he slowly waited for the opportunity to find out the truth.

Emperor Wang, who was in pain, locked himself in the Qilong Palace, and he had been locked in the Qilong Palace for a whole week, and no one except Gonggong Zheng and Xiaoyu had been seen. Huo Panpan fell ill while grieving.

Xiao Yu's mood was very complicated, if she hadn't known about Ge Pei's plan, she would almost have thought that Lan Xi's life would have been lost. He planned it so seamlessly that it was so realistic that everyone believed it.

Seeing Emperor Wang's painful appearance, Xiaoyu was very conflicted, although she also made a very sad appearance on the surface, in fact, most of her grief was because she felt sorry for the imperial brother who loved her since childhood. On the one hand, she understood that she must firmly conceal the truth of the fire in the cold palace, and on the other hand, she really couldn't bear to see Emperor Wang's discouraged and self-reproachful appearance.

During this time, Emperor Wangdi was tormented in pain, and she was tormented in contradictions. But she still knows clearly that this matter must be concealed to the death, the imperial brother does have true love for Lanxi, but he has so many beautiful and talented women, as well as a steady stream of beauties from all over the world to the palace, maybe after a while he will forget Lanxi and live like before.

She can only deceive herself like this in order to alleviate the guilt in her heart.

But it's been the seventh day, Emperor Wangdi still refuses to go out of the Dragon Palace, Xiaoyu looked at him with a heavy heart, the porridge and side dishes on the table were already cold, but Emperor Wangdi only ate a few bites, and then took Lanxi's relics in a daze. Xiao Yu couldn't bear to look at him, opened his mouth, and struggled for a while to resist the urge to tell the truth.

"Brother Huang, today is the seventh day, instead of us sitting here sadly, let's go to the cold palace to worship Lanxi together, let her know that we haven't forgotten her."

Emperor Wangdi raised his head, the pain had made him lose his human form, and he muttered to himself: "Seven days? It's been seven days? She's been away from us for seven days? You're right, you should see her. ”

He stood up and staggered a few steps towards the palace gate, where the snow was falling heavily, and I don't know when the first winter snow was falling. Gonggong Zheng hurriedly signaled people to prepare sacrifices, and urged Emperor Wang and Xiaoyu to go in a sedan chair, Xiaoyu couldn't bear to see him haggard and fragmented, and repeatedly persuaded him to take care of his body, so he agreed to take a sedan chair.

The sedan chair swayed all the way to the cold palace, and now it can only be called the ruins, it is already a white world, and the ashes and collapsed houses under the cold palace are also covered by heavy snow.

Emperor Wangdi stood in front of the ruins in a daze, bursting into tears, as if he couldn't accept the fact that Lanxi had been separated from him forever. She was so lively, so bright, so bright, so bright, how could she leave him so quickly?

Gradually, the heavy snow falling all over his clothes and hat, the snow around him was white, Xiaoyu stood with him, the cloak was full of snow, but she didn't have the heart to dust it, a heart was up and down, one would blame himself, one would be helpless, and one would be sad for the royal brother, it seemed that he didn't forget Lanxi so easily, did he really want to make him sad for a lifetime?

The snow fell heavier and heavier, Emperor Wangdi seemed to have forgotten everything, until he stood as a snowman or remained motionless, and later, Zheng Gonggong really couldn't stand it, and Xiaoyu begged and persuaded him, so he was stuffed into a sedan chair and carried back in despair.

The next day, it was the day of Lanxi's burial, Emperor Wang's decree was posthumously sealed Lanxi as Lanfei, and ordered to be buried in the imperial mausoleum to accompany him after a hundred years. At the same time, Lei Ke was also released, Emperor Wangdi no longer blamed him, blamed himself for everything, blamed others, and rewarded him with an official position at the request of the Queen Mother, and soon Lei Ke officially hired Miss Mo, the daughter of the Imperial History, as his wife under the auspices of the Queen Mother.

Of course, there was a fire in the palace, some people were happy and some were sad, and there were many people who gloated, and there was even a nobleman who had fallen out of favor for many years and set up a banquet in his house and invited friends to celebrate Lan Xi's death, but he was secretly denounced, and Emperor Wangdi was furious and ordered her to be sent to the cold palace, which was a long-abandoned, more dilapidated and desolate palace. All those who attended the feast on that day were reduced to three poles and fined for one year.

After this incident, no matter whether they wanted to or not, no one dared to show the slightest joy on their faces, nor did they dare to discuss the matter in private. Including Xiaoyu, all the people hoped that Emperor Wangdi would forget about the dead Lanxi as soon as possible, and as soon as possible, it would be the same as before. However, Emperor Wang no longer summoned anyone to sleep, and only passed the princes and princesses to meet in the Qilong Palace every day, and did not go anywhere except the imperial study and the Qilong Palace, and the entire harem fell silent.
