The firelight illuminated the entire night sky, as if the stars and clouds in the sky were burning.
Deng lived alone in a beautiful embroidery building in the palace. At this moment, the embroidery building had become a sea of fire. The raging fire was filled with the sound of crackling and exploding wood.
Waves of flames swept along with the wind, devouring everything around them, causing people's hair to curl and their skin to ache, making people afraid to get close.
"Lady!"
King Qin Zhu Ping looked at the sea of fire in front of him, ignored the pull of the palace people around him, and shouted to the helpless guards and servants, "Put out the fire for me!"
There was a roar, and in the sea of fire, the huge burning wooden pillar collapsed, and countless sparks flew everywhere.
"My lady!" Zhu Xi beat his chest and cried loudly, "You dog slaves, if you don't put out the fire, I will kill you and bury you with my lady!"
There is really no way to save such a big fire! Even if the fire is extinguished, there is no chance that the people inside will survive! Even if they are not burned to death, they will choke to death long ago.
But who dares to disobey the prince's words? The guards, palace attendants and others in the palace pushed water carts and other objects and braved the heat wave to start putting out the fire.
Wang, who was following Zhu Xiang, had a cold face, frowned at the unseemly King Qin, and scolded the people in the palace, "Why are you standing there, protect the prince!" After saying that, he glanced timidly, not far away.
Zhu Yunxi watched everything silently.
At this moment, Zhu Yunxi was also looking at her.
The initial website address is https://m.
In the palace, there were only three of them who knew that Deng was about to die. Zhu Fang had always been by Zhu Yunxi's side, and even if he tried to fool around, he would not dare to tell anyone about it in front of Zhu Yunxi.
The only possibility is that Wang secretly leaked the news that Deng was going to be hanged.
Seeing Zhu Yunxi's cold eyes, Wang was frightened. She stepped forward and bowed and said, "Your Highness, I am guilty of this concubine. Please punish me!"
Zhu Yunxi looked at her for a long time and said calmly, "That's all, you are kind-hearted, and you are thinking about King Qin, and you are also thinking about being alone!"
Wang felt a little relieved and boldly said, "Your Majesty has a stubborn temper and I am afraid of it. He can't think about it for a while and blames His Highness in his heart!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled again. He didn't want to expose Wang's little calculation, but looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, and Zhu Xiang who was crying beside him and said, "Do you think Deng will really burn himself to death?"
"How can that fox Meizi be willing to die?" Mrs. Wang also looked over and frowned.
"Yes, all stupid and cruel people are afraid of dying!" Zhu Yunxi sneered, "If she really wants to die, there are ten thousand ways, why choose the most painful one: burn to death? I'm afraid she is thinking of destroying her.
No trace of the corpse, no evidence of death!" He said, sneering again, "What a stupid plan, how courageous!"
These words seemed to have some meaning. Wang's heart was trembling and she lowered her head.
"Only he knows whether the second uncle is resentful or not. But after all, he is Gu's second uncle. For the sake of his father, Gu will not care about him like that!" Looking at the fire in front of him, Zhu Yunxi continued, "However, if
From now on, if my second uncle does anything that is unscrupulous, disgraceful to the country, or violates the imperial law, Gu will not forgive him. The favor here is not endless."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will advise the prince in the future!" Wang said, "If the prince makes a mistake again, I will hold the concubine to account!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled but said nothing.
At this time, Fu Rang, the commander of the East Palace Guards, came close to Zhu Yunxi and whispered a few words. The latter's expression was particularly wonderful and he couldn't help laughing.
"Lao Li is really a wonderful man! Go tell him and bring people in!"
Then, Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Xi, who was still leading people to put out the fire, and snorted, "Call King Qin over, his concubine is not dead!"
It was another elegant hall of the prince's palace. Zhu Ping came in impatiently, opened his mouth and asked, "How does your highness know that someone is not dead?"
After finishing speaking, I was a little dazed. I saw Cao Guogong Li Jinglong kneeling on the ground, asking for forgiveness from the emperor's grandson.
"Second uncle, how long will you continue to perform?" Zhu Yunxi was sitting on the grand master's chair with a sinister look on his face, "It's nothing for you to lie to an orphan, but you dare to lie to even Grandpa Huang. You are deceiving the emperor!"
Zhu Qing didn't know why, "What do you mean, Your Highness? When did I deceive you?"
"Still pretending!" Zhu Yunxi slapped the armrest of the chair and said angrily, "Isn't this the message you gave Li Jinglong? Your beloved concubine Deng has fled outside the palace. If Li Jinglong hadn't paid attention and asked Gu Gu more, even Gu would have
Going to be cheated!"
Zhu Chong was even more confused, but he was still a little happy when he heard that his beloved concubine was not dead. He hurriedly asked, "Little Lizi, what's going on? Where is the person? How did he get to your place?"
In his desperation, Li Jinglong blurted out his old nickname.
"Chitose, in the afternoon, your concubine's girl Taohong went to my army to look for me!" Li Jinglong said, "She said... She made a mistake and offended the emperor, so she wanted to
The prince is reluctant to hang Mr. Deng, so what’s the point?"
Zhu Xi was very worried, "That's what happened! Where are the people?"
"Then Taohong said, you were reluctant to let go of Deng, and you didn't dare to disobey the emperor's order. So you thought of a trick to fake death and let her escape from the palace to temporarily avoid the limelight. Because you were afraid of being caught by the guards outside, you let her
Please be patient." Li Jinglong said quickly, "She also said that in fact, you have already made an agreement with the Emperor Taisun about this matter. You and His Highness are uncles and nephews, and the Emperor Taisun cannot bear to order his death by hanging.
Your beloved concubine. So you uncles and nephews, put on a show for others to see!"
Zhu Xiang was dumbfounded, "When did this king say this?"
Li Jinglong spread his hands, "But that's what Taohong said. She also said that as long as I open my eyes and don't let the guards interrogate people who leave the mansion, the prince will definitely retaliate in the future!"
"I've lost my head and lost my mind!" Zhu Yunxi said angrily from the side, "How dare you say such a thing? King Qin, what else in the world do you dare not do? Not only do you deceive the emperor, but you also secretly make friends with courtiers and spread false rumors.
Gu’s decree. You are so foolish for the sake of a woman. If the old man finds out, can you still keep your title?"
Zhu Xi was suddenly frightened and said loudly, "Your Highness, I never said this. I am with Your Highness today and never leave. I don't want her to die, but how can I have the chance to report to her!"
No matter how confused he is, he still knows the stakes.
No matter how much he loved Deng, he couldn't love her more than his own life.
If these words and these things really reach the ears of the old man, he will be doomed! All of them are the heinous crime of seizing the title, imprisonment, and even a glass of poisoned wine.
What the old man hates most is that others lie to him. Especially his close relatives lie to him! Moreover, as the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, to do such a thing for a woman is comparable to rebellion!
"Your Majesty, that's what Taohong said!" Li Jinglong continued, "It's absolutely true! She also said that Your Majesty has already arranged for Deng to find an unrelated person, kill him and put him in the embroidery building.
, after being burned on fire, you will die without any evidence!"
"Fart, I never said that!" Zhu Fang was not a man of words. In a hurry, he almost wanted to roll up his sleeves and punch and kick Li Jinglong.
Zhu Yunxi said coldly, "Since the second uncle refuses to admit it, I have nothing to say. I don't dare to do this kind of rebellious crime of deceiving the emperor. The guests, Deng and Taohong, and their confessions, are all
And send it to the capital to punish the old man!"
"Your Highness!" Zhu Xi was shocked and said loudly, "If my father knows about this, my life will not be saved!"
He is not a fool. The emperor ordered Deng to be hanged, but something like this happened in his own palace. Regardless of whether the old man believed what he said or not, his end would not be good.
At this time, Wang's voice suddenly came from outside the door, "It must be that bitch, knowing that he can't escape the death penalty, and talking nonsense in the name of the prince to deceive Duke Cao Guo!"
After the voice fell, Mrs. Wang came in, knelt down and said, "Your Highness, that bitch has always been evil-minded. She must have known that she could not escape death, so she risked her life and used this method." After that, she cried again, "Your Highness, our prince.
Although he is confused, his temper could not be more outright, how could he, how dare he, do such a thing?"
Then, he cried again and pulled Zhu Ming's sleeves, wailing loudly, "My lord, haven't you seen the face of that bitch clearly yet? In order to survive, has she ever thought about you, and has she ever thought about the whole family?"
Life! If she really escapes, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won’t be able to escape. Can the old man tolerate you? Can the laws of the Ming Dynasty and the laws of Taotao tolerate you? "
"I'm afraid that others will only believe what she said and won't doubt it. When the time comes, among you, my concubine, and the children at home, there are more than a thousand people in the palace, who will be able to survive?"
