Chapter 210: Into the Cold Palace
Everything that happened in front of the Yushu Palace did not spread, Luo Qingluan asked Zhang Quan to be closely guarded to prevent leakage of news, and the rest was as if nothing had happened.
Concubine Ruan and Concubine Rou asked her why she didn't take the opportunity to tell His Majesty, but Luo Qingluan only shook her head and said that it was not time yet.
No one knew that Luo Qingluan had been waiting for Bai Yixuan to make a move for a long time, if she didn't make a move, it would be too late, and Luo Qingluan could only rush back to Xichu. Now that the time is right, she will not miss the opportunity, if this will tell Han Xun, Bai Yixuan will disgust him a little more at most, but he will not reach the top.
And once the entire Yushu Palace burns up, this will make Han Xun and even all the courtiers shake, and they can't hide it, and then Bai Yixuan's fate will needless to say.
Quietly ordered to go down, and let Yuan Xing and his subordinates closely monitor, day and night, to see who would come to set the fire.
A day passed, and there was no movement.
Two days have passed, and there is still no news.
Five days later, even Concubine Ruan and Concubine Rou were a little anxious, for fear that Bai Yixuan would give up. But Luo Qingluan was not worried at all, and still waited quietly. The net has been released, just waiting for the moment of rewinding.
Although Luo Qingluan was very sure, she didn't know why Bai Yixuan endured it for so many days.
The night was quiet, the heat of the day had been replaced by a cool night breeze, there was no moon, and the stars were scattered sparsely on the sky, and from time to time they were obscured by clouds, making them more and more dim and irrelevant.
Near the Yushu Palace, two men in night clothes sneakily looked around, quickly dodging in the corridor. When they arrived at the door of the main hall, the two secretly eavesdropped at the door, but they did not go in, but walked to the side for a while, and flashed into the side hall.
There is a total of one main hall in the whole Yushu Palace, which has the main hall and the sleeping palace, and there are eight side halls, four rooms on the left and four rooms on the right, which are usually used to place the queen's clothes and utensils, as well as the personal palace maids who serve to live. More remote, it is the residence of eunuchs and ordinary palace maids, including small kitchens, utility rooms, etc., covering a wide area.
The two men entered the side hall on the far right, which seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and immediately closed the door after entering, and did not even light the fire fold, and began to work in the dark.
Lifting the pieces of obscuring oilcloth, there were piles of dry firewood and charcoal underneath, and these flammable things were originally placed in the farthest firewood room and kitchen, but they have been moving them to this side hall little by little these days, and it has taken a lot of effort to avoid the eyes and ears of others.
The two of them checked and saw that there were no mistakes, so they opened the door and went out to check the leftmost side hall, but still found no abnormality. The two looked at each other, nodded, and quickly walked out, taking advantage of the shielding of the pillars in the cloister, and waited.
The order they received was to start at the ugly time, and now that the time is not enough, they can only wait.
Time passed little by little, and the two looked around, and whenever a patrolling guard came, the two of them carefully hid, for fear of being detected. At three o'clock, another person finally came, but it was a woman.
"Quick, move here, be quiet, don't be discovered." This woman is impressively eyebrows.
She walked with a limp, obviously her injuries had not healed after being punished by the Emperor of Beiyue last time, but obviously she didn't care at all, although she walked unnaturally, she still didn't hesitate.
"Girl." The two men in black who had been waiting for a long time finally came out.
"All ready?" Luo Mei asked.
"Yes, just wait for the girl's order."
Luo Mei looked around vigilantly, silently, except for the two people she was carrying behind her, nothing else. The night was like thick ink, which could not be dissolved at all, adding a bit of horror to what happened next.
"Hurry up, go and pour this bucket of fire oil on the firewood, remember, you can't let go of it everywhere, pour the oil through, and you must burn that woman to death!" The eerie voice and strong killing intent of the eyebrows made several people beside him tremble when they heard it, and they hurried to go.
The four of them filled the kegs with fire oil that they had prepared long ago, returned to several side halls again and again, poured it on the already flammable firewood and charcoal, and stood in the cloister with a cruel smile on the corner of their mouths.
In the past few days, she and the princess have not had a good life at all, and it is better to live than to die.
originally thought that the princess married to North Vietnam and became the queen, which was naturally a mother's honor in the world, with a noble status and a lot of favor. Who knows, not only was Han Xun not taken seriously, but he didn't have sex with him after the wedding, if it wasn't for the princess's later tricks, I'm afraid he wouldn't be close to the princess until now.
Luomei has clearly seen Bai Yixuan's pain and hatred in the past few days. In the Southern Wei Kingdom, she is a high-ranking princess, favored by the Southern Wei Emperor, and she is also the first beauty.
Such a noble and beautiful princess came to North Vietnam, but instead of getting the respect she deserved, she was completely disfigured by poison. Since then, she has been able to hear the princess crying and cursing every day, vowing that she must die for the woman.
Who is Bai Yixuan talking about, Luomei naturally knows, who else is there besides Luo Qingluan, the princess of Chu, who has always had a grudge against the princess?
Not to mention her, even the princess didn't expect to see Luo Qingluan in North Vietnam, this woman didn't know how to gain the trust of the Emperor of Beiyue, and she was merciless to the princess, and even couldn't help but kill her.
Bai Yixuan poured all her hatred into Daoluo Qingluan, unless this woman died, she would never stop for the rest of her life.
Seeing that the four subordinates were constantly busy, he took out a lock and carefully locked the door of the main hall, and then retreated, took out the fire fold, and showed a cold smile on his face.
She will already help the princess, and she will get it done soon, if it weren't for the princess falling out of favor, and even getting a large barrel of oil would have taken a lot of effort, she would not have been delayed for so many days. Now that she is finally ready, just wait for all the fire oil to be poured out, she will set fire to the entire Yushu Palace, and let Luo Qingluan be buried in the fire!
Gradually, she seemed to feel a chill, and a slight drizzle drifted in the sky.
Raised her eyebrows and smiled, not worried, fortunately, the princess prepared properly, even if it rained, she didn't worry, with these oils, don't even think about extinguishing the fire, Luo Qingluan is dead.
"Girl, you're all set." A man in black walked over and whispered.
"Okay, ready, light the fire right away."
Luo Mei nodded, took one last look at the main hall, and then walked into a side hall with four of his subordinates.
With a slight flicker, a little bean-sized fire lit up in her hand, swaying faintly, as if it could be extinguished at any time. She didn't hesitate at all, and threw the fire fold down.
With a bang, the flames burst into flames, rising more than three feet high, and then spreading rapidly. In just a few breaths, the entire side hall was already on fire, and a thunderclap burst into flames, and the heat came from the surface.
A strong sense of excitement swept through the body like a surging wave, and he muttered two words: "Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn everything!" Then she turned and walked out.
Standing in the garden, Luo Mei quickly glanced at it, in addition to the one she lit with her own hands, there were also four side halls that were also lit with fire. The fire was raging, and a little light rain could not stop it at all, but there was an increasingly violent posture.
"Stay here, and don't let anyone out of it. If someone comes, and then pretend to call for help, do you hear me? ”
"Yes, girl."
Boom Boom Boom ......
The flames in the sky swept through the entire Jade Shu Palace in an instant, getting bigger and bigger, and it was impossible to suppress it at all. Finally, a patrolling guard found out and ran towards this side, a sly smile flashed in his eyebrows, and he shouted: "Come on, go to the water!" ”
Immediately afterwards, several people beside her also ran indiscriminately, shouting in panic as they ran: "Come on, it's going to be water, Yushu Palace is going to be water!" ”
It's enough, Luo Qingluan didn't show up at all, I'm afraid that he has already fainted from the thick smoke, and he will have already burned to death, right?
Luomei sneered, turned around and left.
Suddenly, at the end of the corridor, several figures suddenly appeared, blocking her way.
"Luomei, in the middle of the night, you are not waiting for the master in the Xia Palace, what are you doing here?" A clear and beautiful voice sounded, but it was no less than that of an evil ghost, and when he heard it, he was shocked, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
"You...... How could you ......"
She covered her mouth in disbelief, she couldn't have imagined that Luo Qingluan, who should have died in the Yushu Palace, would stand in front of her alive. She was neatly dressed, not at all as if she had escaped in a hurry, and apparently had not slept all night.
Immediately reacted that she had been fooled, and she turned around and wanted to escape, but as soon as she moved, a gloomy voice roared: "Catch her for me!" ”
Your Majesty!
Lowered eyebrows were shaken, and almost fell.
I didn't expect ...... Unexpectedly, even the Emperor of Beiyue knew about it, and he also caught her properly.
How could His Majesty and Luo Qingluan know in advance and bring someone to block her here? Luo Mei couldn't think of it at all, his heart sank, but he subconsciously ran forward desperately.
The two guards rushed over as if they were catching chickens.
"Get on your knees!" The guard kicked her in the crook of her knee, and she fell to her knees with a thud.
"How dare you set fire to the Jade Palace?" Han Xun looked at her with murderous eyes, never expecting that what Luo Qingluan told him would come true. Now that everyone has obtained the stolen goods, he feels that he is a fool, and he has been blinded by Bai Yixuan's quietness in the past few days.
Luomei denied in a panic: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid were wronged, the slave and maid just inadvertently passed by here, only to find that the Yushu Palace was out of water, and the slave and maid wanted to find someone to put out the fire, not to escape." ”
Han Xun kicked her heart: "Slut, you are an idiot, I will believe your nonsense!" Say, did Bai Yixuan's slut order you to do it? Dare to burn the Yushu Palace, she almost wants to die! ”
"The slave is wronged, Your Majesty, the princess has no ......"
"Get out, dare to deny it! What I saw with my own eyes, are you still quibbling? He had never been so angry, Han Xun was so angry that he directly pulled out the long sword of the guard beside him and stabbed it into the heart of Luo Mei.
The bloody long sword was clenched in Han Xun's hand, but it didn't seem to be venting his anger at all, he took a deep breath and said gloomily: "Come on, tie up the queen for me, lock her in the cold palace, and wait for her to fall." ”
