Long Harem Road

Chapter 41

Qingmei reacted quickly, quickly guarding in front of the orb, and shouted sharply, "Shut up, gather in the center, you will hurt your mother, and you will be doomed." Several people who ran around with their heads in their arms reflected, and gathered together crying .

Qingmei glanced around sharply, "Ma'am, the surrounding area has been tampered with, and it's already on fire, and kerosene should have been sprinkled on the crevices of the gravel.

It is estimated that the person behind this scene is trying to catch a turtle in an urn, and the servant will send you out first. The surrounding bamboo forest is thick with dead leaves, and the more time passes, the more dangerous it becomes. "

At this time, Baozhu calmed down instead, with a cold light in his eyes, and he tightly protected his lower abdomen, "Well, I listen to you, you must focus on the child in your belly." Qingmei stepped forward, "Your Majesty, please Believe in Qingmei, offended."

She carefully picked up the orb, and her sharp eyes scanned the screaming and crying people, "Shut up and wait, save your energy, maybe there is still a glimmer of life." Jumped out of the encirclement of fire.

After walking a few steps away from the fire, after confirming the safety of the surrounding area, Qingmei carefully let her down, "Your Majesty, are you all right, I will take you home first."

Baozhu's voice trembled a little. After all, she had just experienced life and death. She put her hands tightly on her abdomen, stared at Qingmei, and said firmly, "I'm fine, save people first. Are you sure you can go in again and rescue them all?"

The fire was getting higher and higher, and the encirclement was getting smaller and smaller. Huan Huan and others trapped inside were shocked, hugged and cried, and tried to escape again and again, but were thrown back by the fire, and the clothes on their bodies began to burn.

Qingmei was stunned, a strangeness flashed in her cold eyes, she didn't speak, she nodded firmly, turned around and jumped into the fire circle again.

He pulled Joy away, threw it out, followed the same pattern, after several people had thrown it out, Qingmei flew into the air again and jumped out.

Except for Baozhu, the others all had more or less burns on their bodies, "Qingmei, are you okay?" Baozhu pulled Qingmei and said anxiously.

"Back to the empress, the servant is fine, let's go, the fire will burn bigger and bigger, this place is not far from the Cuiluxuan, people outside should have noticed it, let's leave this dangerous place first." Qingmei said supporting Baozhu.

Huanxi didn't care about the tearing pain on her body, she quickly got up with support, supported Baozhu's other arm, secretly felt Baozhu's pulse, and found that she was just a little frightened, and a hanging heart finally fell down.

A few people hurried, ignoring the injuries on their bodies, trembling in the dark, and walked towards Cuiluxuan. Not far away, they met Li Madam and others who came to greet them with palace lanterns.

Nanny Li forgot to say hello, took the orb, and looked up and down, "Madam, are you okay? The old slave heard the faint shouts and saw the fire in the bamboo forest. He was afraid that something might happen to the majesty, so he waited for someone to hurry up Come here."

"I'm fine, let's go back and talk about it first."

"Yes."

Going back to Cuiluxuan, lying on the bed, gently stroking the slightly protruding lower abdomen, feeling the softness there, seeing joy and nodding at her vaguely, knowing that the baby is safe, I finally feel at ease, long-term Let out a long sigh of relief.

"You all go down, go and see the wounds on your body first, go to Huanhuan to get the ointment, and Qingmei also go, Li Nanny is here to serve.

Small table, you bring a few people, first go to the bamboo forest to fight the fire, the sky is dry, don't burn the whole bamboo forest, see if you can send someone to report the situation to the emperor first, and announce the imperial physician to come. "

"Yes, ma'am, the fire in the bamboo grove is bigger. If you think about it, you should have seen it from the emperor's side. Maybe he is rushing over with the imperial doctor. You don't have to worry." Qingmei lowered her head and said in relief.

"Qingmei." Baozhu called to Qingmei who was about to retreat, looked at her, and said seriously, "Thank you!"

Qingmei's body stiffened, she leaned over, and said politely, "Your Majesty is serious, this is the mission of a servant." However, no one noticed, and there was a glimmer of light in those drooping eyes.

"Go down and take a good rest!" Baozhu didn't say anything about repaying kindness or giving rewards. Although she didn't know Qingmei's identity, it could be seen from her skill that the emperor secretly Trained people.

Due to her status, for Qingmei, she would not frown even if she sacrificed her life for her master, Baozhu could only sincerely say thank you, and try her best to think about this life-saving grace during this period in Cuiluxuan.

Nanny Li looked anxious, worried that Baozhu might have a fetal gas, "Mother, lie down first, is there any discomfort? This old slave knows a little bit about medicine, let this old slave feel his pulse first."

"Okay, I'm sorry, Madam Li." After joyful confirmation, Baozhu was already at ease.

Qingmei has a lot of time, now that she is given a chance to step down, she will definitely find a way to notify the emperor as soon as possible to collect evidence, and she doesn't need to worry about it. How many people are involved in what happened tonight?

"Your Majesty should have just been frightened. Fortunately, your Majesty's baby has been seated and nothing serious has happened, but it needs to be confirmed by the imperial doctor, and the Bodhisattva will bless you." Li Nanny's face turned pale.

After Baozhu survived the catastrophe, as soon as he relaxed his tension, he felt dizzy and exhausted, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

In Yongfu Palace, the screams in the inner room came one after another, becoming more and more dense. The emperor was restless. After Baozhu and others left, he became restless, and the crying in the inner room made him even more irritated. He stood up, Anxiously pacing up and down.

The queen saw that the emperor was very troubled, so she stood beside the emperor considerately, "Your majesty, my concubine is here to guard, and the imperial doctor is also waiting. You have to go to court early tomorrow, so go back to the palace to rest first."

The emperor was noncommittal, pacing back and forth, uneasy, as if he had missed something, looking at Yingying Yanyan in front of him, and those winking eyes that he thought were invulnerable, he became angry for no reason.

Chongyuan gave birth, and he showed enough face by showing up, and nodded to the queen, "Your queen has worked hard, I will go back to Qianqing Palace later, and let me know when there is news from here."

The empress had a complex expression. She felt sad for the woman in the inner room who was desperately struggling on the line of life and death, but also thanked the emperor for not paying attention. She pulled out an ugly smile, "Yes, please rest assured, the emperor!"

Li Mingzhong walked in quietly, whispered a few words in the emperor's ear, the emperor's expression changed suddenly, he got up in a panic, and stepped over the queen beside him, "Wang imperial doctor, hurry up, follow me!"

"Your majesty, you..." The queen didn't even give the queen a look, and hurried straight to the outside of the hall, leaving only a tall back view of the queen.

Cautiously waiting outside the door, the older doctor Wang looked puzzled, but he didn't dare to say more. Li Mingzhong gave him a wink, followed the emperor, and left in a hurry.

Standing in the inner room, the face of the completely neglected queen turned pale and swayed. She seemed to hear the whispering and ridicule of the concubines and servants. The sharp nails pierced into the palm of her hand, and the hatred was hard to dissipate.

Concubine Xian stood in a corner where no one was paying attention, and sneered. Li Meiren looked at the crumbling queen, with a glint of gloating in her eyes. He Meiren had a complicated expression, and everyone in the harem had different expressions.

Seeing the emperor leaving in a hurry, they all guessed what could make the emperor lose color and lose his position. Seeing the empress's face turned livid, all the concubines in the inner hall shut their mouths tightly and waited respectfully, lest they would suffer for no reason, which became the empress' vent bucket.

After an unknown period of time, Bao Zhu vaguely heard the voice of talking, barely opened her sleepy eyes, and saw a pair of anxious eyes staring at herself, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

"It's okay, it's fine, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Bao'er don't blame me." Zhao Zhen's warm right hand covered Baozhu's lower abdomen, and his left hand tightly held her hand by his mouth, kissing delicately.

Zhao Zhen felt a sense of lost and found. When he received the news that Bao'er was in danger, he felt so scared and helpless. He passed by the bamboo forest and saw the black bumps after the burning, so he knew how dangerous the situation was.

I think he has experienced countless conspiracies and assassinations since he was a child, but he has never felt so weak and panicked like he is now!

Thinking of the Bao'er who almost lost him, and the baby who was still in the womb, he looked at the growing child little by little, and his heart was like a knife, as if a piece of his heart was missing, a dull pain.

He only knew how to cherish it after losing it, and he always thought that he was just a little different to this woman with a bright mind and a beautiful heart. It was just because of her knowledge and interest, she was a little more pampered than other women in the harem.

It wasn't until that moment that he realized that, unconsciously, he had branded this woman in his heart. Her every move, every frown and smile made him deeply fascinated. He was so afraid of losing her.

Baozhu was a little dazed by the emperor's affectionate affection. She blinked her eyes and thought of the child in her stomach. She put her hands on her lower abdomen and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, baby?"

"Don't worry, the imperial doctor just saw it. You were just frightened. The baby is healthy and has not been affected. Drink some calming soup later before going to sleep." The emperor grabbed her cold hand and gently stroked her lower abdomen. .

Baozhu felt the bulge on the bottom of her hand, and was still a little worried, "Your Majesty, if this concubine inhales some thick smoke, will it harm the baby..."

"Don't worry, Bao'er, the imperial doctor said, there is no problem, the baby is very healthy..."

Tears welled up in Bao Zhu's eyes, and a smile appeared on her still pale face, "Your Majesty, I thought I would never see you again."

"It's okay, Bao'er, don't be afraid, you're just too nervous, and you'll fall asleep as soon as you relax, don't be afraid, I'm here." Zhao Zhen whispered softly, comforting the woman in his arms, not seeing anything at all. It can't be said that this is a ruthless emperor.

"Well, Your Majesty Xie, Qingmei is lucky to have her here, otherwise,..." Baozhu recalled the precarious situation at that time, and her life was hanging by a thread, with lingering fear in her heart.

Without Qingmei's protection, I'm afraid she would have been killed and killed, and Huanxi and the others might have no bones left. If they were lucky enough to escape, the child would definitely not be safe, and they would probably be burned and disfigured.

She still underestimated the viciousness of this harem woman, with such a little calculation, she would die tonight no matter what, she really hated her to the bone, with such vicious intentions... Baozhu couldn't help shivering.

What Baozhu could think of, the emperor naturally thought of it too. Unexpectedly, the people behind this scene were so insane that they didn't leave Bao'er with any life. At the same time, he was lucky to send Qingmei by Bao'er's side, otherwise the consequences..., he I don't know if I can bear it.

Seeing Baozhu's pale face and trembling with fear, Zhao Zhen felt remorseful and blamed himself for pushing her to the cusp of the storm, which caused her to suffer this disaster. He took Baozhu's hand and said seriously, "Bao'er, I will protect you." Yours, trust me!"

Baozhu's eyes flickered, and she was shocked by the deep affection in the emperor's eyes. She tilted her head uncomfortably, avoiding his eyes, and smiled, "Of course the emperor will protect the concubines, and the baby." .”

Zhao Zhen's eyes deepened, looking at her evasive smile, heartbroken, he smiled wryly to himself, she really didn't believe him!
That's right, his Bao'er is so smart, how could he not know that he pushed her out on purpose before, together with Concubine Wei, creating a three-legged situation in the harem, further restraining the queen?

If it wasn't for my ruthlessness, for the sake of the so-called overall situation, Bao'er wouldn't be a thorn in the side of others, and if it wasn't for the sake of the so-called rules, I would not put her in a dangerous situation tonight...
