Chapter 111: Fire
Seeing that Yang Xue was angry, the black halberd left as knowledgeable as before, but its male protagonist couldn't hold its female protagonist like before.
Mu Chun jumped up and put his head on her towering belly and rubbed it gently, his eyes filled with countless regrets and sorrows.
"Don't think about flattering me like this, I'll forgive you, and you won't leave like this in the future, you know?"
Yang Xue only thought that his actions were showing weakness and currying favor or admitting mistakes, how could he think of the sadness in Mu Chundu's heart at this time.
He couldn't give her any response other than a nod.

Following
As soon as Yang Xue got up, the holy decree of Xiaoyu's six palaces came again.
One is the will of Lichuyin as the queen, and the other is the will of Limu Jinxuan as the prince. After listening to the eunuch, Yang Xue sat on the chair and didn't react, not like she was sad, but more like thinking.
But this was good news for Mu Chunju, and Gu Yan would do this, indicating that Yang Xue was no longer useful to him. In this way, as long as she finishes giving birth and thinks of a way to send the three of them out of the palace, Gu Yan will definitely not bother to track it down.
As expected, Zhou Ying was also recruited into the imperial study today, and Gu Yan was afraid that Zhou Ying would be suspicious if he talked too much, so he just asked about domesticating the wolf army.
Mu Chun had already passed the ward with Zhou Ying, and asked him to try his best to control the wolf army, so that Gu Yan could rely on him with confidence. First, it can completely dispel his coveting of Yang Xue, and second, if Zhou Ying gets his favor, it will be much easier to grasp his flaws in the future.
In order to win his trust, Zhou Ying summoned all the wolf troops except Qinghua Hall and Xihua Hall and gave him a good 'show'. Gu Yan was naturally very satisfied when he saw it, and immediately named Zhou Ying as the general of Wolf Wei and gave him a thousand taels of gold.

Yang Xue leaned in the courtyard and was stunned, there were too many things lingering in her mind, but she really didn't have the energy to think about it anymore. The frequent fetal movements in recent days made her dare not take a step in Qinghuadian, but she was afraid that these two children would be born.
Yesterday the Emperor ordered Ah Qi to bring back a letter, only saying that they would leave the palace through the secret passage today, and if something happened in the Xihua Palace at night, she didn't need to worry about their safety.
In this way, Yang Xue couldn't figure it out, why did they suddenly leave the palace, and what would happen to Xihua Palace? Too many doubts were scattered in her heart like fragments, waiting for her to piece them together.
I was worried about my heart until I was a child, until the sound of 'walking water' sounded, Yang Xue suddenly opened her eyes, put on a dress and got out of bed.
"King Iwa, go see what's going on! Rock King, Rock King ......"
Yang Xue called several times but did not see him, only the black halberd jumped down from the beam.
"Where do you see where the Rock King has gone?"
The black halberd didn't make a sound, just tugged at her dress and motioned for her to sit back on the bed.
"Why do I think you're hiding something from me?" Yang Xue looked at the black halberd and sat back on the bed according to its meaning, and said, "Okay, if you don't want me to know, I will only ask you if the Emperor and the Queen Mother are in danger." ”
The black halberd shook his head.
"Is the Rock King in danger?"
The black halberd shook his head again and motioned for her to lie down.
Yang Xue listened to the earth-shattering shouts outside, but she was still not at ease, so she got up and opened the door.
I saw that the direction of Xihua Hall was shining in the sky, and the shouts came and went, and the content of the emperor's letter told her that they were safe, but such a big fire made her heart panic.
The entire Qinghua Palace's minions were also awakened by this shout, and Yang Xue remembered to order someone to inquire about the news.
Seeing that the fire was only increasing, Yang Xue could only sit on the chair that Ah Qi had moved and wait for the news, and at this moment, Mu Chun decided to jump off the roof.
"Have you gone to Xihua Palace? What happened to the Emperor and the Queen Mother? ”
Mu Chun raised his leg and motioned for her to go get the note.
He knew that yesterday's few words of explanation would still make her worried, so after sending the Emperor and the Queen Mother out of the palace safely, he wrote a letter back, only saying that they were chilled by Mu Chun's current approach, and the Emperor decided to take the Queen Mother out of the palace to enjoy her old age, this letter was written outside the palace, as for the fire in the Xihua Palace, it was deliberate, and if any corpse was found, it was not them.
Although Yang Xue was still full of doubts after reading the letter, she was finally a little relieved, and seeing that the fire in Xihua Hall was gradually extinguished, Yang Xue returned to the dormitory.
The words "leaving the palace", "fire", and "corpse" lingered in her mind, and she couldn't sleep until the movement outside gradually became smaller, and she fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up the next day and heard the news from the palace people that the Emperor and the Queen Mother had been burned to death by fire, Yang Xue was nervous and determined that he had personally escorted them out of the palace many times, and heard Zhou Ying enter the palace and tell her that the Emperor and the Queen Mother had been out of Ducheng, so she was finally relieved.
It's just that the doubts rising in his heart can't be extinguished, Yang Xue was going to pull Zhou Ying to ask clearly, but he used the excuse that there were still very important things, so he jumped on the roof and looked at it again, and then saw that there was no trace.
