Chapter 55: On Fire
This time, Qingge worked hard, bent on putting Feng Qingxuan to death, and did not hesitate to do it herself, she first cleaned up the petals in the bowl, and then wiped the medicinal juice on Feng Qingxuan's body, just as she walked to the wall and was about to remove the painting, there were several knocks at the door.
Qingge tightened his body, his eyes narrowed, he walked to the door, and asked, "Who is it?" ”
"Madam, the little one is from the mother's family outside the city, and the lord asked the little one to come and see it, and bring some food from home."
Qingge opened the door, looked at the little guy dressed in linen, and hurriedly welcomed him into the room, she leaned out, looked left and right, and hurriedly closed the door without anyone following.
Qingge walked into the house, only to see that the man had already walked in front of Feng Qingxuan, she stood in front of the man and said urgently: "Brought something?" ”
The man smiled, took out a bag from his cuffs, and handed it to Qingge: "You want this poisonous flower just for this woman?" ”
Qingge didn't say a word, she opened the bag to check, the man looked down, and said: "Qingge, you have to hurry, the emperor told you to find the emperor's holy decree as soon as possible, you can't fake it and delay the business." ”
Qingge frowned and met the man's eyes: "Xiao Yun, does the emperor know that you are coming?" ”
Xiao Yun shook his head: "He doesn't know, but he also knows a lot about you, you still have to go back to the palace as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”
Qingge hastily put away the bag in his hand, and then urged Xiao Yun to leave: "I will find a way to return to the palace as soon as possible, okay, you better leave quickly, so as not to be seen for a while." ”
Xiao Yun hesitated for a moment, looked around the house for a while, but was pushed away by Qingge, and when he walked to the door, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Qingge immediately pulled Xiao Yun to the inner room: "You can leave by yourself in a while." ”
Without waiting for Xiao Yun to speak, Qingge immediately walked to the door and said softly, "Who?" ”
"Madam, it's Jianqiu."
As soon as he heard Jianqiu's voice, Qingge opened the door, saw Iris following on the side, and turned around and walked to the back room: "Why did you come back so soon, everything was packed?" ”
Iris stood in front of Qingge with low eyebrows, looked at Feng Qingxuan who was intact on the couch, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she reached out and took out a folding fan from behind her and handed it to Qingge: "Concubine Fang, just now the slave maid packed up her things and found this folding fan, but because the warehouse is damp, the fan surface has become moldy, and many things have been stained. ”
Qingge looked at the fan, there were no words and no paintings on it, except for a few points of mold, the rest was a piece of white noodles, she covered her nose and waved her sleeves: "Then take it out and dry it, it's sunny these days, so it's good to go to mildew." ”
These words all fell on the ears of the unconscious Feng Qingxuan, although her eyes were closed, but her thoughts were awake, she wanted to struggle to get up but had no strength, she used all her strength to call Iris's name, but she couldn't make a sound.
She was anxious but had nothing to do, she could only listen to Qingge's soft voice and take away the irise, and then she felt the cold droplets of water falling down her throat, and heard Qingge say in her ear: "Feng Qingxuan, enjoy your last time." ”
Her mind seemed to be spinning, full of chaos, her chest was uncomfortable, the burning pain was spreading to her skin everywhere, she wanted to scream but was weak, in the last second of her consciousness, she clearly heard Qingge's voice: "Sister, don't forget to see if Linglong is doing when you go down to the underworld?" ”
"Linglong, Linglong." Such a familiar name but she couldn't remember anything, she felt her body fluttering, as if she was really going to die, her side suddenly became cold, as if her surroundings were full of ice, she suddenly felt a buzzing in her ears, she couldn't hear anything, she had given up hope, let her consciousness fall.
In the evening, the cold wind blew through the lanterns at the gate of the Qin Palace, it was about to reach the early spring, today's day was a little colder than usual, the sky gradually darkened, only the light in a courtyard of the palace illuminated the entire palace, even the light of the moonlight could not match it.
A few screams suddenly came from the originally silent courtyard, and the people hurriedly ran out of the various houses, carrying buckets in their hands to the main courtyard.
Iris, who had just come out of the warehouse, saw the crowd coming and going, and pulled a person to ask for some reason, "What happened?" ”
The little servant replied breathlessly, "Yes, it is Madame's house that is on fire." ”
Iris looked at the running little girl stunned for a few seconds, and when she reacted, her heartbeat seemed to jump out of her throat, she immediately ran to the main house, at this time the house was already burning red, the flames on the roof were soaring, Iris covered her mouth, and was about to rush inside, but was stopped by a maid next to her in time: "You are crazy, this is fire, you don't want to die." ”
Iris choked and coughed a few times, the tears in her eyes were blinded by the fire, she shook off the maid's arm and resolutely rushed into the house, but before she could make progress, the embarrassed Qingge had been helped out by the subordinates, her face was full of blackened marks, and even her clothes had been burned in several places.
Seeing this, Iris hurriedly stepped forward: "Concubine Fang, where is my master, how is she?" ”
Qingge coughed a few times, and a bit of sadness appeared on her face: "I tried my best to protect her, but I couldn't stop the fire, so you better go and see her in person." ”
Iris held her breath and slowly walked to the place surrounded by the crowd, she approached Feng Qingxuan with trembling steps, she couldn't see her face clearly because of the fire, only the clothes on her body could still show her identity, her eyes widened, and she couldn't stop tears flowing down: "Master, master, don't scare me." ”
At this time, the corpse in front of her could no longer reply to her, she was lying stiffly on the ground, Iris couldn't believe it, she walked to Qingge with red eyes, gritted her teeth and asked in a hard voice: "Concubine Fang, please tell Iris why the house suddenly caught fire." ”
Qingge leaned on Jian Qiu weakly, her face was slightly sad: "I don't want to, I just slept in the house, who knew that I would become like this when I woke up, I tried my best to protect her body, but when I got to her next to her, she had already become like this." ”
"Then why don't you have anything to do, and ask the concubine to tell Iris." Iris can be said to have torn her face in front of Qingge this time, but now that there is no Feng Qingxuan, she is not afraid of anything.
She stared at Qingge with fierce eyes, as if she had to ask something from Qingge's mouth.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Zhuo's voice suddenly came from afar, he saw that his beloved woman was frightened, and was asked by Iris again that he couldn't bear it, he walked quickly to Iris and protected Qingge in his arms.
He glared at Iris angrily: "What, Ling Xiao put you in the Qin Palace's Mansion to let you do evil and bully the people of my Palace?" ”
Iris snorted coldly and smiled: "Lord, you also know that the slave maid was placed in the Qin Palace, to take care of Miss Feng, since she is the master of Iris, then her life and death slave must be asked clearly, otherwise how should the slave and maid explain when the son comes back?" ”
Xiao Zhuo was slightly stunned when he said this.
He looked at Feng Qingxuan, who was surrounded by subordinates on the side, and glanced at Qingge in disbelief: "She...... He's dead? ”
Qingge lowered his head, didn't make a sound, and then nodded slightly: "It's Qingge who didn't take care of his sister, and the prince is all at fault for going to Qingge." ”
After saying that, Qingge was about to throw himself into Xiao Zhuo's arms again, but this time Xiao Zhuo didn't hold her, he handed Qingge to Jian Qiu, and walked in front of Feng Qingxuan by himself, as if all the words were blocked in his throat, without saying a word.
This scene reminded him of the winter in Daliang, that day the river was biting, and the south wind was also like this, lying lifeless in front of Xiao Zhuo's eyes, that day he hated Feng Qingxuan to death, but today when she really lost her breath in front of him, he couldn't hate it anymore.
The flood in his eyes surged, but the surface had regained calm, he closed his eyes slightly for a while, and ordered Jin Xiao on the side: "Bury it." ”
The night was hazy, and Qingge longed for Xiao Zhuo's appeasement with a sad face, but this time he couldn't bear to look at Shangqingge's eyes, and he sighed: "Qingge, go back." ”
Qingge's face was stunned, and he said stiffly: "Where is the prince going to call the concubine back?" ”
"Go back to the house and rest." Xiao Zhuo walked out of the courtyard step by step with his back to him, no longer speaking, but his mind was full of Feng Qingxuan's figure, and he didn't know when Feng Qingxuan had been rooted in his heart, maybe after she was crazy and stupid, maybe it was the time when she was robbed by Hua Mubai.
He knew that Qingge was the emperor's person, but she looked very similar to Nanfeng, and he was reluctant, but this time he was reluctant to Feng Qingxuan, the woman who had fought with her for many years.
He stood outside the mansion and looked up at the moon in the sky, the dullness in his heart was difficult to spit out, and Jin Xiao followed him in the future: "Lord Wang, are you going to let her live?" ”
"When the time is ripe, this king must give a big gift to the royal brother." Xiao Zhuo's face gradually became gloomy, and he was dressed in black, blending in the dark night.
In the dark night, the bleak wind blew through every corner, and on a small road ten miles away, two little guys drove the carriage forward one by one, and the cold wind blew his clothes tightly, and one of the little guys asked the driver impatiently: "Why haven't you arrived, you have been walking for so long." ”
The driver replied, "What's the hurry, we're here." ”
The little guy poked his head out and looked ahead, the further he went, the more he went, there was a faint smell of rot in the cold wind blowing, and he covered his nose: "Okay, let's get here, hurry up and move her down, let's go back quickly, it's bad luck to come here at night." ”
When the little guy heard this, he stopped the carriage aside, and threw a heavy sack on the slope full of bones with another person, and he looked around, and suddenly felt that the hairs on his body stood up, and suddenly a few howls came from nowhere, and he immediately became frightened: "Brother, we can't stay in this mass grave for long, let's go back quickly." ”
Another guy also laughed at him: "Look at you, I'm scared, don't pee your pants when you turn around." ”
As he was talking, the little guy was suddenly stunned, his eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at the back of the person: "Yes... There are ghosts! ”
I saw that the white bones on the ground suddenly rolled, and the two of them were so frightened that they crawled back to the carriage, and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
With a few sighs and sighs, several figures came out of the open place just now, they searched among the bones, and suddenly a voice said: "Master, I found it." ”
The other person glanced at the person in the sack and immediately waved his hand: "Take it away." ”
