The Emperor immediately roared,"Bastard! If anything happens to Noble Yi, I will take your heads!" Hurry up and save her!"
The Imperial Army soldiers on patrol saw the red light in the sky not far away, and their expressions became solemn. One group of people went to report the transfer of people, and another group quickly rushed to the direction of the fire. At this moment, many eunuchs and palace servants on duty in the other palaces noticed the fire and shouted in fear,"Fire, fire!" The shouts broke the peace in the harem.
At this moment, the fiery clouds in the sky above Yiren Palace were dancing wildly in the cold wind.
Seeing such a fierce fire, it was extremely frightening. The Imperial Army on duty led a group of eunuchs and serving girls to put out the fire, but the fire was too big. Although they tried their best to put out the fire, other than the two eunuchs on duty at the palace gate, no one could break in to save them.
Through the layers of flames, one could only hear wails, screams, cries, and sobs coming from the fire.
"Noble Yi…"
"Yiyi…"
? Qin Mufeng was so agitated that he almost went crazy when he heard the miserable screams. If it wasn't for the eunuchs and palace maids risking their lives to drag him away, he would probably not have rushed in to save Haoyue Yi.
When the fire was put out, the Yiren Palace was burned to ashes. No one in the inner hall survived, including Haoyue Yi, who would be conferred the title of noble tomorrow. Qin Mufeng, who had always been calm and composed, looked at the Yiren Palace that had been reduced to ashes. Then, he looked at the corpses that had been carried out by the imperial guards and burned to black ashes. He could no longer take the stimulation. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
" Your Highness…Imperial Physician…" The scene was in chaos again.
Yiren Palace was on fire, and none of the servants and noble Yi managed to escape. After hearing the news, the other masters in the harem were shocked but also narrowed their eyes. Something seemed to be amiss!
In the royal study, the Emperor angrily said to Xi Dequan,"Xi Dequan, get Zhao Ming to come and see me! Oh right, let that little eunuch who came to the royal study to report the news come in as well."
"Commander Zhao has already pleaded for forgiveness outside the hall.”Xi Dequan replied respectfully.
The Emperor looked at Zhao Ming, who was kneeling on the ground and begging for forgiveness, and the only eunuch alive in Yiren Palace, Xiao Jiuzi, with a cold expression.""Who can tell me what happened?! Zhao Ming, you go first!"
Zhao Ming bowed his head and cupped his hands." Your Majesty, I saw a fire in Yiren Palace when I was patrolling in front of the Palace of Heavenly Purity, so I rushed over immediately. However, when I arrived, I found that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and I couldn't put it out…I failed in my duty. Please punish me, Your Majesty."”
The Emperor's gaze was cold as he stared at Little Jiuzi who was kneeling on the ground and trembling in fear. He asked sternly,""Which palace are you from?"
"Your Majesty…this servant…this servant is the ninth son of Yiren Palace.”Xiao Jiu stammered.
"Oh? Yiren Palace? Before Yiren Palace caught fire, you weren't serving your master in the palace. Where did you go?”The Emperor's face was gloomy.
"Replying to the emperor, noble Yi said that the weather is cold today, so he asked the servants to place warm charcoal in the hall, but that is also without fire! This servant really doesn't understand how it caught fire! " Emperor, please calm down…please calm down…" Little Ninth was so scared that he kowtowed repeatedly.
The Emperor's voice was cold." Zhao Ming, I order you to find out about the fire in Yiren Palace within three days. Otherwise, I'll hand over your position as the commander of the Imperial Guards to someone else!" Men, drag Little Jiuzi away and interrogate him!”After saying that, he left angrily.
In the Mu residence, Qin Mufeng slowly opened his eyes. His pupils were a little dazed. After a moment of daze, he muttered,"Yiyi, Yiyi, she…"
The butler stood in front of the bed and whispered,"Wangye……you……you're sorry for your loss.”
????
Qin Mufeng closed his eyes, trembling in grief. A line of tears flowed down his pale face."It's all my fault…"
It was late at night in the Mu Residence. There was nothing but silence. There was not a hint of life.
In the bedroom, Qin Mufeng wasn't lying on the bed. Instead, he was sitting in front of the desk. He was holding a piece of paper tightly in his hand. There was a line of beautiful small words written on the paper: "I only hope that your heart will be like mine, and I will not let down my longing.”
The scene of his first meeting with Haoyue Yi appeared in his mind again…
That year, Qin Mufeng met a group of men in black on his way back from Yunfeng Mountain. Those assassins were all well-trained assassins. Therefore, Qin Mufeng and the assassins had been chasing for half a night, but they still could not shake off the assassins 'pursuit. Qin Mufeng's back was hit hard again. He quickly took a few steps back, but the sound of flowing water could be heard. He was so focused on escaping that he actually misheard the voice in his panic. It was indeed a river, but this stream was actually below…
Qin Mufeng had already arrived at the edge of the cliff. He could faintly hear the rumbling sound of the stream flowing through the cave. The terrain here was flat and belonged to the plains, but it did not mean that there were no small mountains, rivers, and cliffs here.
Qin Mufeng gritted his teeth and jumped down from the cliff without hesitation. He could hear the roaring sound of the river flowing through the cave due to the huge drop.
After an unknown period of time, there was a sound of falling into the water. The black-clothed man quickly jumped onto the cliff, but he could only see the rapid river below and the blackened bottom of the cliff.
Qin Mufeng poked his head out of the stream. His face was pale and his lips were purple. His eyes were wide open and he was exhausted.
His strong consciousness told him not to faint, or he would never wake up again. His entire body was almost stiff. Qin Mufeng reached out and grabbed the water grass beside him. The stream water around him was already dyed red with blood.
The thick smell of blood stimulated his sense of smell. He grabbed the branches growing by the roadside with difficulty and used all his strength to crawl step by step towards the shore.
There was no suffocating feeling, and half of his body was still in the water. Grabbing onto the tree branch with great effort, he finally dragged his exhausted body out of the water. However, he could no longer exert any strength. For a moment, he relaxed and fainted.
From afar, a young girl who was as bright as the moon walked over. She could see movement from the stream from afar. However, he didn't know what it was, but his footsteps didn't speed up because of the movement by the stream. He continued to walk unhurriedly.
When he reached the stream and saw the body that could no longer be called a human, his entire body suddenly trembled and he quickly ran over.
This was a man with a face like a celestial being. Because he had been soaked in the water for a long time, his entire face was pale.
His lips were purple and there were bright red blood stains at the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that they had flowed out after he came ashore. The girl reached out to check the man's breath and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Someone walked over from the other side. The girl raised her head and waved at the person. That person saw it and quickly ran over.
"Miss, why are you here?”She was dressed as a maid and seemed to be only twelve or thirteen years old.
The girl who was addressed as Miss frowned slightly and pointed at the unconscious man beside him."Liusu, I was taking a walk when I saw him by the shore, so I came over.”
The servant girl widened her eyes at the man beside the young girl, and then quickly looked at the stream that was dyed red with blood. A trace of fear suddenly appeared in her eyes. Pointing at the stream, his lips trembled slightly." Little…Miss."
The girl who was as bright as the moon was slightly stunned. She followed the servant girl's gaze and saw the crocodile slowly floating on the water.
The stream around the crocodile was covered in blood, and it had long since stopped moving. The girl quickly looked at the man beside her. This time, she noticed that the man's blood-stained clothes were actually crescent white.
