Tian's little cook

Chapter 1077 No Joy of Victory

After the door of the temple was opened, a woman was pushed out from inside and fell to the ground.

Lin Zhimo recognized her at a glance, it was Lu Shi who rescued her from Yong'an Palace.

She is Huang Furui's concubine, Lin Zhimo was not surprised to appear in the palace, but why was she pushed out?

Without any consideration, Lin Zhimo rushed over and squatted beside Lu Shi, trying to help her up.

"Zhimo!"

"master!"

Huangfuchu and Donna called out at the same time.

Huangfuchu hurried over, and when he wanted to pull Lin Zhimo up, a hanging beam at the gate fell due to a fire, and Huangfurui appeared behind the hanging beam, laughing and saying, "Huangfuchu, even if I die, I won't Admit defeat."

"Lu Shi has nothing to do with me. If you are a man, let her live."

"My lord!" Lu yelled inside, with tears all over his face, "My lord!"

Turning her head, she looked at Lin Zhimo with teary eyes.

He didn't say a word, but Lin Zhimo knew the meaning conveyed in his eyes - Lu Shi was begging her.

Taking a deep look at Lin Zhimo, Lu Shi suddenly pushed her away forcefully, and before Lin Zhimo could react, he resolutely rushed into the fire.

"don't want--!!"

Lin Zhimo stretched out his hand, but it was too late, and he could only watch her being swallowed by the fire.

"Let's go." Huangfu Chu pulled her up and stepped back quickly.

Then, the door should fall forward from the scorching destruction of the flames, on the spot where she had just crouched.

Lin Zhimo didn't feel scared at all, her mind was still in the moment when Lu Shi rushed into the fire.

An hour ago, Liang An committed suicide by taking poison in front of her.

And now, she watched Lu Shi set himself on fire again.

In less than two hours, two lives had already disappeared in front of them.

She just asked Zhang Linghan if she would face more such situations in the future, but Zhang Linghan didn't answer, and now she clearly knew the answer.

"Master, are you alright?" Donna was very worried seeing her dull expression.

"There is water in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, put out the fire immediately."

When Huangfu Chu gave an order, the soldiers behind him immediately dispersed and started to move.

Seeing that Lin Zhimo didn't respond, Donna called again, "Master?"

"Zhimo?" Huangfu Chu took her hand, "Did it scare you?"

"I am okay?" Lin Zhimo came back to his senses, "Can I still be rescued?"

"I'm afraid I can't." Huangfu shook his head at first.

The thick smoke and fire have completely turned the main hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation into a huge fireball, how could there be a way out?

"Lin Jiao, go get busy and leave me alone." Now that Huang Furui is dead, there are still many things in the palace that need him to do.

Huangfuchu repeatedly confirmed that she was fine, so he asked the hidden guards to send Lin Zhimo back to the East Palace to rest.

After getting into the carriage, Lin Zhimo's forced composure disappeared immediately, and he leaned against the wall of the carriage tiredly and closed his eyes.

"Master, are you really okay?" Donna guessed that she must have been frightened, squatting at her feet and whispered: "Master, don't be afraid, I will accompany you, and there is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"En." Lin Zhimo responded softly.

Why did Huangfu Chu finally win, but she didn't feel the joy of victory?
-
At this time, Yuan Xue was carefully chatting with Concubine Wu in a private house on the outskirts of Beijing, when suddenly a servant came in to announce: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince's side concubine is asking to see you."

"What?" Concubine Wu Gui was puzzled, "Prince and side concubine, who are you talking about?"
