queen and pro

Chapter 271

Xiaotao was so cruel that she didn't want to look at the eight women, she tore off the red curtains and threw them to the door, grabbed the red candle beside the bed engraved with auspicious dragons and phoenixes, and threw them on the curtains. The curtain caught fire, and then she threw two red candles beside the window, and the flame climbed up the wooden latticed window along the curtain.

In just a short while, the house was filled with a choking smell of smoke, and every place in the room that could catch fire was on fire, only sparks splashing and the hissing sound of burning wood were heard.

Xiao Tao immediately jumped to the roof, then turned around and left the Hall of Yihe.Just at this time, the guard guarding the door also found that the house was on fire, and immediately smashed open the wooden door that had already burned to the edge, and rushed in, only to see that the house, including the wedding bed, was already on fire. Get a figure.The half-burnt wood on the roof fell and almost hit the heads of these guards. They avoided it quickly, and then scanned around with their eyes to find Lan Qin.They were also dead if they couldn't find Lan Qin, and the rest of them ran to the steps of the door and shouted for help:

"Firefighting...it's on fire...the Palace of Yihe is on fire...the princess is still inside..."

Only a short while later, the nearby guards, court ladies and eunuchs rushed over one after another to help put out the fire, but at this time, the Hall of Yihe and its roof were completely engulfed in flames.And this summer city hasn't rained once in the last half month, and the room is full of furniture and beams made of dry wood, because the fire didn't go out because of more people joining in, but it got worse and worse. trend!
Qi Tianyu and the guests, who were a little drunk in the front hall, suddenly heard shouts from outside, and then saw a guard running over quickly, shouting out of breath: "No...it's not good , is on fire...the Palace of Yihe is on fire, the princess...the princess is still trapped inside..."

The wine glass in Qi Tianyu's hand fell to the ground with a slap, and most of his wine was sober, he rushed out of the main hall with all his might, looked in the direction of the Hall of Yihe, and saw that the western sky was already reflected by the fire on the ground It was so red that the jumping flames and the shouting of firefighters could be seen from afar.

Qi Tianyu sat down on the ground in a very disfigured manner, his lips squirmed several times, but he didn't say a word, the prince Xia An who came out right behind him gave him a blank look, and then seemed to have lost his mind. Like a madman, he rushed towards the Hall of Yihe, Qi Tianyu came to his senses, stood up abruptly, followed behind him, and ran towards the Hall of Yihe!

When they came to the Hall of Yihe, the entire main building in the hall was engulfed in flames, and the sleeping hall where Lan Qin lived was reduced to ashes, leaving only a piece of bright red coals still exuding scorching heat. An's face was pale, and he was on the verge of falling. If there were no palace servants behind him supporting him, he would have fallen to the ground long ago, and Qi Tianyu's face was also ashen.

Xia Jin who came over after hearing the news was also extremely disturbed when he saw the reaction of the two, and shouted: "Hurry up, hurry up, and send more guards to put out the fire!" His eyes were also fixed on the field, hoping that Lan Qin could Survive, otherwise the fragile alliance with Qi Tianyu will not be guaranteed.

After a while, the fire was finally extinguished, but the faces of the three did not improve. The guards also sensed the tense atmosphere, and hurriedly went into the fire to search without the master's order, trying to find clues!

After searching around, the guards who found nothing shook their heads and came to Xia Jin: "This subordinate is incompetent, we have searched carefully around the princess' bedroom, but there is no trace of life, only found Take this!" Then a blackened object was handed over, the prince snatched it over, looked around carefully, then staggered a few steps, staring at the ashes with a pale face.

Xia Jin and Qi Tianyu took it over and took a closer look, only to find that the blackened one turned out to be Lan Qin's phoenix crown that was married today. It was made of pure gold, so it was not burned by the fire. Qi Tianyu murmured: "No...impossible, she won't die so easily!" The phoenix crown in her hand also fell to the ground with a bang, making a crisp sound.

Suddenly, Xia An on the side seemed to go crazy, rushed over, grabbed Qi Tianyu's hair, and wrestled vigorously: "It's all about you, you're the one who killed Qin'er!"

"Pull him away!" Xia Jin roared angrily. He was already upset enough, but now the crown prince is adding to the chaos, which almost made him vomit blood.

"Qi Huang, I'm sorry, this... the crown prince was so angry that he became confused for a while, you must not be as knowledgeable as him!" Then he glared at Xia An angrily, "Go back to the East Palace and reflect on it, General Meng, what do you want to do? 100 people guard the east gate, no one can release the prince without my imperial decree, and no one is allowed to visit him!"

The prince didn't argue with him, but just stared at him with the eyes of a stranger. The alienation and hatred in those eyes made people tremble with fear.Qi Tianyu wiped the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, and stepped forward to persuade, "Forget it, Emperor Xia, the crown prince is also a worried princess, that's why he is like this. In my opinion, this punishment should be waived!"

Xia Jin originally wanted to calm Qi Tianyu's anger by punishing the prince, since he didn't mind, he went down the steps.

"Okay, since Emperor Qi begged for you, then this punishment will be waived for the time being! You rebellious son, hurry up and apologize to Emperor Qi!" Xia Jin gave him a cold look with eyes that hated iron and steel.

He can't be put under house arrest yet, he wants to avenge Lan Qin!The prince suppressed the anger in his heart, walked in front of Qi Tianyu with a stinky face, said reluctantly: "I'm sorry!" Then he walked straight into the ashes, trying to find some traces that could give him confidence, It proved that Lanqin was still alive.

He didn't find it, but the guards who were searching next to him found something. He saw a guard in yellow hurried over, holding a white porcelain bottle the size of two fingers in his hand: "Your Majesty, this is what this subordinate just said. Found it in the nearby grass!"

Xia Jin took it and unscrewed the mouth of the bottle. Inside was only a small piece of paper rolled into a tube. When he spread it out, there was a line of bold and powerful characters on it: "Xia Jin, Qi Tianyu, let's see who can laugh among us." To the end!" On the next row, there are three big characters in flamboyant characters: Feng Chenyi!
Xia Jin's face suddenly became darker than it could be, this Feng Chenyi is really too daring, so it turned out that this was his idea tonight.The prince at the side also saw this note, his heart throbbed suddenly, his sister who had been missing for many years believed in this man so much, he never thought that he would treat her like this, Feng Chenyi, just wait, you follow I will not let Tianyu go, I will make you regret it, the prince vowed silently in his heart.
