Chapter 171

"My concubine, get up, how can I doubt my concubine?" the emperor coaxed softly, "Chen'er has a rather cold temper, there is no malice in saying this, don't take it to heart."

Hearing what the emperor said, the concubine stood up, still sobbing, "Your Majesty, my concubine said something rebellious. In the entire court, the emperor only has a son like the third prince left. I'm afraid it's... hey, my concubine will definitely It's because I thought too much, all these years my concubines have heard that the Third Prince is a loving and filial prince, with such a high prestige among the people, he shouldn't be that kind of person."

Hearing this, the emperor's eyes became very complicated.

Seeing that the emperor's expression was different, the concubine's eyes flashed with a deep look.

Serving by the emperor's side for such a long time, she can be said to have a clear understanding of the emperor's heart.She knew that the emperor was very attached to the throne, even though he had already put half of his foot in the coffin.

One day, she will watch Shangguanchen become a prisoner.Let them go in the endless dark abyss, because where she fell, she will get up from where she fell!Her majestic concubine Shu could bear the burden of humiliation and pretend to be someone else to enter the palace in order to avenge her revenge.

This world belongs to her!Because she is the master of this world!

"Aifei, you can go down first, I want to be alone." The emperor closed his eyes and said calmly.

"The concubine resigns." She blessed herself and obediently withdrew.

When she walked away, the emperor opened his eyes again, and the eyes became very deep and elusive.The world was about to fall into chaos, and his son Shangguan Chen should bear the brunt of it.

It's not that he hasn't noticed the weirdness in this palace, but he is well aware of it, but he has become powerless.If you want to keep the throne, then you should act first, right?

As the emperor of Ziyue Kingdom, he would absolutely not allow the throne to be taken away by others.

"Come out!" The emperor whispered while lying on the bed, and then a black shadow flashed over and knelt down beside the bed.

The emperor glanced at him with a solemn expression: "I have some things to ask you to do, remember, you can only succeed, if you fail, you will come to see me."

Then he motioned for that person to come over, and he whispered a few words in that person's ear, and that person immediately became serious, and then walked away.

The world is going to be chaotic!The emperor sighed faintly, the betrayal of relatives is the final outcome?

Jade Palace.

Hua Rongrong and Shangguan Chen stood at the gate, although the brand new palace had been renamed Three Princes Palace.But Huarongrong still felt that it looked awkward, after all, it used to be Shangguanyu's mansion, even though it was repaired, it still kept its original state and changed little.

"Go in." After standing for a while, Shangguan Chen said calmly.

Facing a group of unfamiliar servants, Hua Rongrong couldn't hold back her joy at all.This mansion clearly looks like the emperor sent them away.Thinking about how Shangguanchen had done so much for him but this was the result, Hua Rongrong was worthless for Shangguanchen.

However, Shangguan Chen never showed these things, so Hua Rongrong couldn't tell whether his emotions were happy, angry or calm.

"Are you unhappy?" Shangguanchen suddenly looked sideways at Huarongrong as he walked into the gate, and asked in a low voice.

"No." Hua Rongrong shook her head, "I just feel uncomfortable."

"Then don't feel it." Shangguan Chen patted her on the shoulder.If you come, you will be safe, why think so much?

Hua Rongrong looked around and felt a little strange.

It stands to reason that the servants should be a little apprehensive when they see the new owner, but the servants of the new palace are quite calm.There was no anxiety at all, and they were still busy with their own affairs.The supervisor of the palace didn't even come out to greet them at this time, which is really weird.

Hua Rongrong gently touched Shangguan Chen, and said in a low voice, "This palace is very strange."

Shangguan Chen calmly said: "Be careful, someone might attack us at night."

Hua Rongrong nodded and continued to walk forward, secretly keeping everyone's actions in mind.

into the night.

Yeyuan and the others did not come to the palace to look for them, after Huarongrong and Shangguanchen had dinner, the two shut themselves in the room without moving an inch.

From time to time, the servants of the palace heard the sound of the two people's playfulness accompanied by reverie words.

Except for their room, the palace was peaceful.From time to time, patrolling guards walked back and forth in the palace.

More than a dozen light figures bypassed the guards like ghosts and scattered to every corner of the palace.No one seemed to notice that a storm was coming.

In less than a stick of incense, thick smoke billowed from a corner of the palace.This seemed to be a signal, and immediately after that, more than a dozen places in the palace caught fire at the same time.All of a sudden, the palace was in flames, and the fire in Wang Ye's room was especially fierce.

The screams and exclamations of the servants of the palace rang together, those fleeing for their lives, fighting the fire, and ping-pong-pong-pang-pong were in a mess.

However, no one came to the prince's room to put out the fire.The fire there was particularly rapid and quickly engulfed the room, only the screams of the prince and princess could be heard from the room.Then, no more.

When the soldiers guarding the city rushed to put out the fire, the palace that had just been renovated had already become a sea of ​​flames.

The light of the fire illuminated half of the sky, and the fire burned for a long time before it was slowly extinguished.

When Yeyuan and the others rushed to hear the sound, the palace had nowhere to find a living.The smell of burning is pungent and unpleasant, and the former palace is collapsing in the flames.

Jingzhen was staring at the fire, if she hadn't been dragging her desperately, she might not be able to help but rush into the flames to find Shangguanchen and the others.It was Shangguan Chen who rescued her from the endless slaughter. Although she lived in the palace as a concubine these years, Shangguan Chen never touched her.For her, it is more appropriate to say that she is a younger sister than a subordinate.Although she once had feelings for Shangguan Chen, it was only the passage of time that made her understand that Shangguan Chen would never fall in love with her, and that feeling had quietly turned into family love.

To her, the current Shangguan Chen is her brother!She is the only family member in this world!

Such a big fire, even if Hua Rongrong has the ability to reach the sky, it is impossible to escape safely with Shangguan Chen.And those servants who escaped by chance were describing the situation of the palace when it was on fire with horror on their faces.I'm afraid, neither of them can escape.

Jingzhen tried her best to restrain her emotions, but still couldn't help her nose sore, her throat seemed to be blocked by something.She didn't let herself cry, but found that the sea of ​​flames soaring into the sky gradually blurred in front of her.

Both Ye Yuan and Yu Ji frowned and sighed deeply.

The large area of ​​the palace made the fire gradually extinguished until the sky was bright.

The charred and blackened things fell in disorder, and the former palace became ruins.Jingzhen immediately took a surviving servant of the palace and asked him to take her to the place where Shangguanchen and Huarongrong were when the fire broke out.

When they got there, they saw a mess all over the place.Jing really didn't care about the heat of some embers still burning, and turned over there.Seeing this, they picked it up too.When they removed the incompletely burned beams and the like, they saw the two scorched corpses curled up on the ground, whose appearance was completely invisible, as if they died after experiencing endless pain.

With trembling hands, Jingzhen searched them.She still had a glimmer of hope that these two were just stand-ins, not Shangguan Chen and the others.

However, what she touched made her unable to restrain her tears anymore.Her vision was already blurred, but she could still tell that what she held in her hand was the dagger that Shangguan Chen never left her body - Mie Shen!

And at this moment, Prime Minister Su also rushed over.He looked at the mess, and there was a bit of grief on his old face.

Shangguan Chen really left just like that, the world is going to be chaotic!

In fact, he didn't need to think too much about who ordered the fire.Su Chengxiang was very disappointed, originally thought that he would take care of the relationship of flesh and blood to some extent.Never expected that it has reached such a vicious level.Tiger poison doesn't even eat its offspring, let alone humans.

This time, he really thought of retiring.

This court is no longer that court.In the civil and military dynasties, treacherous ministers were in power.So what if he is the prime minister who is under one person and above ten thousand people?The emperor no longer trusted him, and gradually weakened his power. In time, he would be nothing more than an old man with the name of prime minister.

Prime Minister Su just listened to his subordinate's report and left in a hurry.

The two corpses were also carried away by the soldiers.

Ye Yuan and his party stood in the ruins, silent.

"How about I enter the palace!" Yuji gritted her teeth and said, they are not fools, they knew it was the emperor's doing.Otherwise, why did the soldiers guarding the city arrive late, but when they arrived, they did not try their best to put out the fire on the grounds that the fire was too large to be controlled.

Ye Yuan grabbed him violently, and said sharply, "Are you crazy? When did you become so impulsive? Entering the palace, do you want to die?"

They can all understand Yuji's mood. They have been through life and death together so many times. Although they often bicker and laugh, how can the feelings cultivated between life and death be compared with other things?

"Hunjun!" Yuji said angrily, thinking that he would never see Shangguanchen and Huarongrong again, he felt a burst of grief.

"I think the situation in the palace is not good, otherwise Prime Minister Su wouldn't have come and gone in a hurry." Ye Yuan said calmly, "Go back to the inn first, I'll go into the palace."

"I'll go in with you." Yuji said hurriedly.

"No, you go back!" Ye Yuan insisted, "For you, the imperial palace is nothing more than a net. Since the emperor can make such a move, he must also know that our existence threatens him. Presumably, he has calculated it and waited for us." Throw yourself into a trap."

"Ye Yuan is right, let's go back first." Jingzhen, who had regained her calm, said in a low voice.

Seeing that everyone said so, Yu Ji had no choice but to agree with their approach, and obediently followed Chisibuhu and Jingzhenhui Inn.And Ye Yuan turned towards the direction of the palace when people were not paying attention at the corner.

Royal study.

"Chen'er and Rong Rong were both buried in the sea of ​​flames?" After listening to Prime Minister Su's report, the emperor slumped on the chair, as if he had aged countless times in an instant.

Prime Minister Su looked at the emperor's performance calmly, wondering in his heart, isn't this what the emperor did?Why does he seem so upset?
