Text Chapter 42 A fire broke out in the side pavilion of the Youtan Palace
Rong Zheng followed out and asked, "Lord, what's wrong?" Anyone? ”
Nangong Jin glanced at Rong Zheng and said to him: "It is unreasonable for someone to dare to stare at this king secretly. ”
"What? In this Youtan Palace, does anyone dare to stare at you, Lord Wang? Rong Zheng looked incredulous.
"Rongzheng, give this king a thorough investigation of the Youtan Palace." Nangong Jin let out a low roar and turned back to his bedroom.
In Qingfeng Garden, a small servant knelt in front of Yuhime and talked to her.
"Is everything you just said true? Did Rong Zheng really go to the Phantom Star Pavilion? Yuji asked.
"Hui Niangniang, that's what Lord Rong said to the prince."
"Rongzheng, are you trying to go against this princess?" Yuji hatefully pinched the Jinpa in her hand.
"And Niangniang, the prince seems to have noticed that we are secretly staring at him, and we ...... now" The little guy paused, and did not continue.
"Idiot! Don't anger the prince, stop it for the time being. Take those snacks on the table, you can take them back and share them with them! Yuji glanced at the little guy and pointed to the snacks on the table.
"Xie Niangniang, the little one knows what to do." The little guy nodded and walked out.
After the little guy left, Yu Ji called Yingxing in and explained her words. Yingxing nodded and stepped back.
After Yingxing left, a strange smile appeared on Yuhime's face, and she lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.
At the third watch, the side pavilion where the servants in the Youtan Palace were resting suddenly caught fire, and a night guard shouted: "It's on fire!" ”
Then, there was chaos in the house, Rong Zheng rushed over, ordered the guards to get water to put out the fire, worried about Nangong Jin's safety, Rong Zheng ran towards Xian Yaju.
Hearing the noise, Nangong Jin got up, and as soon as he put on the brocade robe, he saw Rong Zheng running into Xianyaju, Nangong Jin pushed open the door of the bedroom and shouted at him. 、
"Rongzheng, what's going on?"
"Lord Wang, the side pavilion suddenly caught fire. Now, the guards of the palace are rushing over to extinguish the fire. ”
"What? How could a good one suddenly catch fire? Nangong Jin frowned slightly.
"My subordinates are investigating, and I'm worried about the safety of the prince, so I'm here to take a look."
"Is Seifuen alright?" Nangong Jin asked.
"Back to the prince, Qingfeng Yuan is far away, so it should be fine. However, his subordinates have already sent guards to protect the Jade Concubine. ”
"Hmmm! Let's go, go out with the king. ”
Nangong Jin left Xianyaju with Rong Zheng and walked towards the side pavilion.
It seems that this fire has killed many people, and when Nangong Jin and Rong Zheng came to the side pavilion, the guards had already carried out the corpses of more than ten small servants from inside.
"So many people died?" Nangong Jin frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
"Lord Wang, Lord Rong, we found this outside the outer wall of the side pavilion." A guard walked over to Nangong Jin and handed a stick that ignited the fire in front of the two.
"Someone deliberately set the fire?" Nangong Jin narrowed her eyes.
"How so?" Rong Zheng was also surprised.
At this moment, two little servants who lived in the side pavilion came out, coughing incessantly as they walked.
"Really, how could there be a sudden fire, and what's going on with the people who live in the West Ear Room? They couldn't wake up, and if they had woken up earlier, they wouldn't have suffered this kind of killing. ”
"That's it."
The two little guys were talking to themselves, and they didn't see Nangong Jin standing in front of them looking at them. It wasn't until the two of them had already walked up to Nangong Jin that they were startled.
"I've seen the prince! The little ones didn't know that the prince had come to the pavilion in person, and they hoped that the prince would forgive his sins. The two knelt down and saluted Nangong Jin.
"Well, get up. By the way, this king just heard from you that the people who live in the west ear room can't wake up, what's going on? ”
"Back to the prince, when the fire broke out in the side pavilion just now, the people who lived in the east ear room and the main room woke up, worried that someone was trapped in the fire, we came out of the door and knocked on the door one by one, but the dozen or so people in the fourth room of the west ear did not move at all, and the door was also locked from the inside, and we couldn't rescue them, hey......" A small servant said to Nangong Jin.
"Oh, there's such a thing." Nangong Jin looked at Rong Zheng.
"Lord Wang, my subordinates always feel that this matter is too strange, I don't know if this matter is related to the person who flashed through Xianyaju tonight, it is better to ......" Rong Zheng looked at Nangong Jin.
"Let's go back to Xianyaju first."
After Nangong Jin said this, he turned around and walked towards Xian Yaju. As soon as I came to Xianyaju, I saw Yuji standing outside Xianyaju with tears on her face, barefoot, and thin clothes.
Seeing that Nangong Jin was back, Yu Ji ran towards him and threw herself into his arms.
"Lord, lord, you are back." Yu Ji hugged Nangong Jin tightly.
"Jade Princess, you are ......"
Yingxing took a step forward, saluted Nangong Jin, and then said: "Back to the prince, Niangniang heard that the house was on fire, and she was worried about the safety of the prince, so she didn't care about changing her dress and putting on shoes, so she ran over, no matter how the slave persuaded Niangniang, Niangniang refused to go back." ”
Listening to Yingxing's words, Nangong Jin looked down at Yu Ji and smiled faintly at her.
"Jade, you are really ......"
With a light sigh, Nangong Jin picked up Yuji and walked towards his bedroom, Rong Zheng shook his head lightly and stayed outside the Xianya residence.
For some reason, Rong Zheng always felt that a glimmer of light flashed in Yingxing's eyes, and he fixed his mind and looked at Yingxing again, but Yingxing's face still looked worried.
"Why is Lord Rong looking at me like this?" Yingxing asked.
"Nothing? It seems that Niangniang is really worried about the prince. Rong Zheng said.
"Yes, Niangniang only has the prince in her heart, and for Niangniang, the prince is her heaven and her everything." Yingxing said.
"Really?" Rong Zheng glanced at Yingxing and did not speak.
Early the next morning, Tamahime opened her eyes and looked around.
Nangong Jin sat at the table, looking at the candlestick on the table, as if she was thinking about something.
Yu Ji pulled her light yarn and put it on her arm, then got out of bed and walked gently behind Nangong Jin.
"Lord, how did the prince get up early in the morning?"
Hearing Yu Ji's voice, Nangong Jin glanced back at her, and then smiled faintly.
"The Jade Concubine is awake? The king was thinking about the fire in the pavilion last night. Didn't bother you, did you? ”
"No, the concubine is sleeping soundly." Tamahime smiled charmingly at him.
"Hmmm! Since the jade concubine has woken up, then the king will order someone to send you back to Qingfeng Garden, and the king still has some things to discuss with Rongzheng. ”
"Since the prince still has something to do, then the concubine will go back by herself."
"But ......" Nangong Jin looked at her.
"Lord, it's okay, Qingfeng Yuan is in this Youtan Palace, the concubine will be careful." Yuji laughed.
"Okay, slow down. When the king's affairs are less, I will go to Qingfeng Garden to see you. ”
"Hmm!" Yu Ji smiled a little shyly, turned around and walked out of Nangong Jin's bedroom. Yingxing was already standing outside Xianyaju waiting, and when she saw Yuji walking out, she stepped forward, supported Yuji, and walked slowly towards Qingfeng Garden with her.
"The prince is more and more spoiled by his mother. Last night, when the prince saw his mother, he was very distressed. Yingxing said flatteringly.
"Really?" Yuji glanced at Yingxing.
"yes, Yingxing has been watching." Yingxing smiled.
"You girl, this little mouth is really good at talking. If that Feng Tian hadn't appeared, then ......" Thinking of Feng Tian, Yu Ji's mood became depressed again.
"I don't know how things are going with Yan Lu and Xiao Yi?" Yingxing asked casually.
"Yingxing, remember, don't talk nonsense, don't forget, what will happen to those who make mistakes." Yuji's face changed, making Yingxing tremble unconsciously.
"Yes, Niangniang, Yingxing knows." She nodded in horror.
Rong Zheng went to the study with Nangong Jin, Nangong Jin looked at Rong Zheng and said.
"This king thinks that there must be a connection between the fire last night and the person who secretly watched this king."
"Lord Wang, my subordinates also think so. The subordinates think that there are more and more secrets in this Youtan Palace, and the prince should go to the Snow Mist Peak in person. ”
"Snow Mist Peak?" Nangong Jin's eyes darkened.
"That's right, there are some things, maybe the Holy Maiden can help." Rong Zheng replied.
