Chapter 189 (2/2)
”Princess, there's a fire in the backyard. The fire is very strong. It's already coming to the front yard.”
”No, let's go, let's go...”
As soon as Wang Yi's voice fell, a hasty cry for help rang out of the door.
”What? Out of water? ”
The Empress Dowager stood up in shock. At this moment, she did not care about Su Muge. She quickly stood up and walked out.
”Be careful, ma'am.” Nangong was also shocked to keep up with the Empress Dowager.
”What about people? The backyard is out of water. No one in the yard has found it. ”
The Empress Dowager went out of the house and looked up to see the smoke coming out of the backyard. Now there are less than ten people standing beside her.
”Back to the empress dowager, the people who are guarding are all dead!”
”What?”
”Empress dowager, I'd better leave soon, seeing that the fire will soon burn to the front yard.” Nangong congeals his heart and holds the Empress Dowager's path.
”Yes, let's go, let's go.”
The Empress Dowager and Nangong Ningxin walk towards the gate of the courtyard.
”Princess, the gate is locked from the outside!” Wang Nuo face ugly to Su Muge side road.
Su Muge's eyebrows sank. ”Can't get out?”
Wang Nuo shakes his head. Everything in the JiaoLan palace is excellent. That is to say, the ordinary gate is made of the most solid solid wood. With their skill, it can't be opened.
When Su Muge came, they also followed Donglin. If there was any abnormal situation outside, they would find out for the first time. But now, they didn't move at all!
”Look for any other exits.”
”Yes.”
Su Muge goes to the gate of the yard, which is the farthest from the fire. Now the whole yard is almost surrounded by rolling smoke, which looks like being swallowed up by a huge dark beast.
”Come on, put out the fire, break the gate first!”
After a while, there was a loud noise outside. It was found that the fire was put out later.
”Bang”
people outside don't know what to use to bang the door. They bang the whole courtyard door.
Outside, the guards looked at the iron lock with someone's arm thick, and their faces were extremely ugly.
”Damn it, the iron lock has not left a trace with an axe!”
The lock is too big and hard to break at all.
”Smash the door!”
But the door is also solid wood. It's as thick as four or five palms. It's not easy to break it open!
But the walls are too high for them to climb in.
”You go to the back door and the side door. No matter which door it is, it's broken open for me!” The guard team grew up and shouted. It was the Empress Dowager's mother. If something went wrong, his life would not be needed.
”Cough, cough...”
”Go and get the wet cloth to cover the Empress Dowager's mouth and nose.”
With the smoke coming, the Empress Dowager could hardly open her eyes.
Su Muge let Wang Yi and her wife wet the veil with tea just when she came out just in case.
”Crouch down.” Smoke is all up, squatting down to be able to breathe less smoke.
Because of the fire in the courtyard where the Empress Dowager was, the palace of Jiaolan suddenly became a mess, even the emperor who was ready to rest woke up.
”I'm not going to send more people there. No matter what method I use, I'm going to rescue the Empress Dowager!”
”Don't worry, Emperor. The guards have already passed. There are so many people around the Empress Dowager. They will be OK.”
The empress and Princess Qin came in with a worried face. The empress came forward and stroked the emperor's chest to let him go.
”And the second prince? Where is the second prince going? He is now the commander of the guard. Where did he go at this time! ”
No one around the Empress Dowager is careful. There is no possibility of fire caused by carelessness. It is clear that someone intentionally set fire. Under the protection of the guard led by Xia houkun, someone can set fire in the Empress Dowager. It's not what Xia houkun can't be!
At this time, the emperor really regretted that he had handed over two phoenix cards to Xia houkun. Let's see what he did!
As soon as Qin Guifei saw that the emperor was dissatisfied with Xia houkun, she came forward with a sad face. ”Don't worry, Emperor. Kun'er must be trying to save people at this moment. Even if he spared his life, he would never let the Empress Dowager do anything again.”
Qin Guifei said so. The emperor thought of Xia houkun's going to save him in spite of his own life and death when he was hunting. His face slowed down a little.
There was a chill on the Queen's face. The Empress Dowager would better die in it. In this way, the emperor wanted to protect Xia houkun, and the ministers could not agree.
At this time, the remembered Xia houkun was lying on the back of a concubine.
”Well, your highness, how are you Maidservant concubine, maidservant concubine, I can't stand it any more Ah! ”Xia houkun looked down at her as if she was in pain or happy, reached out and pinched her hand hard on her chest, which accelerated her speed.
”Your Highness, your highness is not good. The Empress Dowager's courtyard is out of water!”
At the last critical moment, the bodyguard's voice sounded outside the door.
Xia houkun's body was tense and broke, but he couldn't breathe too much. He grabbed the quilt beside him and wiped it casually under his body, then turned around and walked out.
