Ye Yining lowered her head and said nothing, clearly not wanting to talk to Lan Yue anymore.
But Ji Shuhua seemed to have found an opportunity and answered in a strange voice, "Miss Lanyue, Princess Ji just said that you were dreaming! Her things will not be given to you."
King Qikang frowned and gently pulled Ji Shuhua's hand, signaling her not to talk too much.
But Ji Shuhua blinked innocently, "Your Majesty, Miss Lan Yue didn't hear clearly. I just explained it with good intentions."
When Ye Yining heard Ji Shuhua's tea talk, she just glanced at her contemptuously without saying a word.
But Lan Yuexiang felt that she was not only despised, but also slapped in the face. She jumped up excitedly like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
However, before she could get closer to Ye Yining, Lan Tianyu had already reached out and grabbed her.
"Don't make trouble! Stay calm and avoid inhaling the magic mist."
Their situation is already getting worse now. If Lan Yue is affected by the magic mist again, making enemies everywhere and losing people's hearts, their future path will be even more difficult.
Lan Yue was still unwilling to give in. Seeing her brother's stern eyes, she had no choice but to endure it.
But after enduring it for a while, she couldn't help it anymore and wanted to argue with Ye Yining.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, her nose suddenly started to itch. Before she could restrain herself, she sneezed loudly.
Then, as if some special mechanism had been turned on, one sneeze followed another.
Ye Yining felt disgusted and whispered to Jun Jiuji: "I want to go out, the air here is not very good."
Jun Jiuji nodded slightly, then took her hand and stood up together.
He looked at Emperor Dongchu, Prince Yuanhao and others, and said apologetically: "You can discuss it yourself next!"
The Emperor of Dong Chu also wanted to interrupt the meeting of the four countries, so he said: "How about ending today's meeting here! We will discuss other matters tomorrow."
"That's fine! I have to go back and put on two more pieces of clothing." The Crown Prince rubbed his hands and stood up.
It was so cold in Dongyu Palace that he wanted to get under the quilt now.
"I have to go back and get dressed." Prince Yuanhao also stood up.
King Ji and Princess Ji were leaving, and he subconsciously felt that there was no need to stay any longer.
What's more, he also really hates the woman named Lan Yue.
That woman is a troublemaker, always looking for trouble.
And Princess Kang of Northern Han Kingdom seems to be not simple either.
I don’t know why women should participate in the Four-Nation Meeting.
Seeing King Ji leaving with Princess Ji, he followed suit.
Once one person takes the lead, others will leave one after another.
But Feng Lie kept his posture and didn't move.
He stared intently at the extinguished sacred candle, constantly trying to relight it.
But no matter how many times he tried, he never succeeded.
When he came to his senses, he and Lan Tianyu were the only two people left in the entire hall.
"Is this bright holy fire also suppressed by the realm?" Lan Tianyu asked thoughtfully.
Feng Lie frowned tightly and said with a headache: "It shouldn't be the case. If it were really suppressed by the realm, it would have been impossible to light it before. I always feel that something is not right."
This bright holy fire seemed to be extinguished by a mysterious force.
Is it really some kind of restriction?
Or is it man-made?
Who can do anything under their noses?
"Forget it if you can't light it, let's use the fire crystal to keep warm first!" Lan Tian Yu saw that Feng Lie was clueless and gathered his clothes irritably.
He also felt cold.
"Let's go!" Feng Lie didn't say anything else. He put away the extinguished bright candle and left the East Imperial Palace holding the lantern.
He decided to go back to his residence and think about it.
…
Nuanxiang Palace.
As soon as Ye Yining and the others left the East Imperial Palace, they were invited by Prince Yuanhao to Nuanxiang Palace.
It is said that Nuanxiang Palace is warm, and you can eat something to warm yourself up.
Ye Yining agreed because she didn't want to go to Wuyou Palace.
But what they didn't expect was that the Nuanxiang Palace, which had been warm when they arrived, was now as cold as an ice cellar, and several of the fireplaces installed in the palace had actually been vandalized.
Prince Yuanhao was a little confused, "We didn't go to the wrong place, right?"
Ye Yining blinked. There were three words "Nuanxiang Palace" written in such big letters on the door of this palace. How could he go wrong?
At this moment, Prince Chu Chi walked over.
When he saw the situation inside, he immediately called someone over to inquire.
"What's going on?"
The father-in-law who was being questioned looked around and said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness, it was the Queen who ordered all the coals from the nearby palaces to be removed. The ninth princess was injured, unhappy, and shivering from the cold, so...
"
So my father-in-law didn’t say the next words, but the meaning was already very clear.
The fireplace in Nuanxiang Palace was destroyed by the empress after the ninth princess ordered it.
The charcoal from several nearby palaces has also been removed, and the Nuanxiang Palace will no longer be warm.
"I'm going to see my mother." Prince Chu Chi felt a little embarrassed, looked at King Ji and Prince Yuanhao apologetically, and left immediately.
Prince Yuanhao touched his nose in embarrassment, "If this were in Xiliang, this kind of thing would never happen."
Ye Yining smiled and said, "How about we go to Xiliang now?"
Prince Yuan Hao was stunned when he heard this, "Now? The meeting of the Four Nations is not over yet!"
Moreover, it was dark and cold outside, and the flying carriage that picked him up earlier was not his own. It would be a lot of trouble for him to go back!
Jun Jiuji glanced at the extremely cold sky, which was about to snow, and then gently squeezed Xiao Ning'er's cold little hand.
"Go ahead and sit down!"
"Yes." Ye Yining nodded and followed Jun Jiuji into Nuanxiang Palace again.
"It's a bit cold just sitting there. I'll ask someone to come in and repair the fireplace." Prince Yuanhao immediately went to call for someone.
When Jun Jiuji saw Xiao Ning'er sitting down, he took the fire stick and lit a few lamps around.
Ye Yining was afraid that Jun Jiu would be cold, so he took a brazier from Yaolingxian's residence, and also took some "black jade charcoal" just refined from the charcoal kiln, and lit a fire.
The moment the black jade charcoal burned, she felt that the coldness in the room had been dispelled.
Even Jun Jiuji was a little surprised and stared at the black jade charcoal that Xiao Ning'er took out.
He was very sure that these charcoal were not the ones they brought back from Dongshan before.
"Brother Ninth, these black jade charcoals are so useful!"
Ye Yining sighed while using the Flying Object Curse to send a bag of black jade charcoal to her parents while no one else was around.
Jun Jiuji rubbed her head helplessly, "Would you like to take some back and burn ordinary charcoal?"
Ye Yining smiled and blinked, then leaned into his ear and whispered.
"I spent a small price to borrow the Holy Fire of Light..."
Jun Jiuji was slightly surprised, then tapped her forehead, "What's a small price? Will it hurt you?"
Ye Yining heard this and waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no. I just need to do more good deeds in the future."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a sinister and excited voice coming from outside the hall.
