The fire was so intense that it burned all night. It was only after dawn the next day that it was gradually brought under control.
But even if it was controlled, the entire backyard was completely destroyed.
The front yard was also burned a lot. Although it was not as serious as the backyard, no one can live in it from now on.
"Xiao Xuanzi, how could you let Xiao Li'er come here?"
Chu Wang, who arrived at the last step, felt heartbroken when he saw Chu Qianli lying in Feng Yexuan's arms with a weak look on his face.
"Little Li'er, how do you feel? Do you want the imperial doctor to come and see you immediately?"
"No need, the gilding was just shown to her." Feng Yexuan lowered his head and glanced at Chu Qianli.
She was still looking at the ruins in front of her, her eyes blank.
King Yu was ruthless, and this fire was naturally caused by his people.
Although the person here has no blood relationship with him, she is the woman of his biological son.
But in the eyes of King Yu, the lives of these women are as thin as paper, worse than an ant!
"Xiao Li'er, don't do this."
Seeing the lifeless look in Chu Qianli's eyes, Chu Wang felt really uncomfortable: "You make me feel so sad when you do this."
"I'm fine, don't worry Uncle Fourth Emperor, I'm just tired."
I was really tired. I was so tired that I didn’t even have the strength to sit up straight. I could only fall into Feng Yexuan’s arms. At least I could rest and replenish my strength.
She cannot fall, this battle has just begun.
"King Yu is more powerful than I thought. He is in the dungeon, but he can still direct the entire situation."
Nowadays, no one can tell how many people from King Yu are still in the palace compound!
But it is also true that King Yu can still cover half of the sky with one hand while he is in the dungeon.
"He has developed in Nanming for so many years, and his power will only be greater than you and I imagined." Feng Yexuan wanted to comfort him.
But he is not a person who speaks well, and he doesn't know how to say words of comfort.
However, this girl doesn't actually need others to comfort her. She knows it better than anyone else.
The long arms around her waist tightened slightly.
A flash of surprise flashed through Chu Qianli's eyes.
Although he didn't say a single unnecessary word, his actions seemed to have said a lot to her.
Does he want to tell her that no matter how powerful King Yu is, as long as he is here, there is no need to panic?
Chu Qianli couldn't help but raise her head and glance at him.
Feng Yexuan's arms tightened a little more.
It won't make her feel uncomfortable, but it will make her feel full of security.
At three o'clock in the morning, Leng Ji and Xi, together with the palace guards, made a rough estimate of the situation in the backyard.
"There are thirty-six corpses and countless injured. We have asked the living people of the Prince's Mansion to identify them. Currently, there are six corpses whose identities are unknown."
"Why don't you know? You haven't checked the missing people?" Chu Qianli got off the horse with the help of Feng Yexuan.
"Princess, my subordinates have already checked. Among the thirty-six corpses, except for the six that were burned beyond recognition, it is completely unclear who they belong to. The other thirty people, three of them are the concubines of Prince Hao."
"The others are servants, maids, and guards."
Chu Qianli looked up and saw that the backyard was in ruins.
"Princess, they can't identify the six corpses. However, there is a concubine named Ruji in the backyard who has disappeared."
"Ruji?" I had never heard of her name, but something flashed through Chu Qianli's heart.
"Yes, it's Ruji." Yang Xun nodded and said, "I heard that she is the most favored concubine of the prince during this period."
