The post-abandoned elegance shocked the world

Chapter 253: Li Palace (2)
"Your Majesty, we have to put out the fire first, and then go talk to the emperor."

"Turn around."

The fire started from Xie Mo's house, and when Linglong was not on duty tonight and got up in her clothes, the house she entered was already on fire.

"Your Majesty—" Linglong looked at the fire and yelled, and someone next to her stopped her, "Aunt Linglong, I can't get in, the fire is too big."

All the people were carrying water to put out the fire, and many eunuchs and guards were not properly dressed, and they were desperately fighting the fire.

Xiao Hao was reading the notebook at first, but he was very displeased when he heard the commotion outside. Seeing Xiao Liuzi running in in a panic, he even took a picture of the notebook on the table, "The sky is falling?"

Little Six swallowed his saliva, he just felt that the sky was falling.

"Back to the emperor, Xiuyun Palace is flooded!"

After Xiao Liuzi finished speaking, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, the emperor was no longer in the room, even the grand duke was gone.

When Xiao Hao arrived, the house where Xie Mo lived was already burned beyond repair.The sky is dry, and the wind is helping the fire. Now we can only try to stop the fire and prevent it from spreading.

"Where is she?" Xiao Mo saw Linglong standing in front of the burning house in a daze.

Linglong's mouth was astringent, she opened her mouth for a long time before she made a sound: "No, no."

Xiao Hao's eyes darkened, he almost lost his footing, what does it mean that he didn't come out?One by one, he looked for those people whose faces were blackened because of the fire fighting, no, no Xie Mo.

Linglong's legs were already weak, she was pulled by him and then let go, then knelt and sat down softly.

Everyone was just rushing to put out the fire, and didn't pay much attention to it. Now that the fire was under control, Zheng Da asked someone to count the heads, and found that there were more than a dozen people missing. Except for the queen, it was just a few guards, maids and eunuchs. Hu Yong, the commander of the guards, was also included.The scene was quite chaotic.The emperor was not in the mood to find out what was going on at this time, but just grabbed a bucket of water and poured it on him, scaring the people around him to hold him back desperately, "Your Majesty, the fire is too strong to enter."

"So, the two of you just watched the fire?" Xiao Hao's eyes were red now.After all, the fire was getting weaker, and he went in regardless of stumbling, and there were many corpses of people who had no time to escape, all of them were charred.

The bedroom was the first to burn, so it was naturally the worst.

Xiao Hao saw a charred charred corpse on the floor of the bedroom, seeing that it was smaller than those outside, his feet softened and he knelt down.Zheng Da didn't know what to say, he suddenly saw a beam of fire falling down, heading towards the emperor, and he didn't realize it, so he hurried over and knocked him away.The still burning beam fell on his shoulders.

The people next to him quickly went to lift up the beam and helped Zheng Da up, only then did Xiao Hao, who was knocked away, look over him a little bit dullly.

The corpse was already unrecognizable, Xiao Hao asked: "Where is the maid who is on duty at night in this room?" There was hope in his eyes.

After a while, the maid who was on duty at night was found, she was dressed in a guard's clothes, she was also in a state of embarrassment, she knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, but she was speechless.

The light in Xiao Hao's eyes suddenly went out, and he staggered and almost fell, but luckily the two guards behind him held him up.

Zheng Da endured the pain and said: "It's not safe here, Your Majesty, go out first."

Xiao Hao was still looking at the corpse, it was impossible, it was impossible for Xie Mo to become like this, how could he believe it.

When everyone saw the emperor like this, they had no choice but to carry him to a nearby courtyard that was not affected much, and then left people to continue to put out the fire and clean up the scene.

As a result, as soon as I arrived in the yard, it began to rain from the sky.It was raining at this time, and everyone in Xiuyun Palace wanted to scold their mothers.Wouldn't this disaster not have happened if I had done it sooner?

Xiao Hao was thrown into the next room after being hit by raindrops a few times, his teeth were chattering, it took him half a day to calm down, his hands were clenched into fists, and his veins were exposed.

For a while, many people came from the harem, Xiao Hao just said, "Except the people from Xiuyun Palace, tell them to get out."

Yun Shang and the others didn't hear any news, so they didn't know what happened.People in Xiuyun Palace have always been tight-lipped, especially this matter at this time, how can someone talk nonsense, want to go in but are stopped by the guards.For a while, everyone had different opinions.

When Xiao Hao first entered, he didn't expect that Xie Mo would be burned to death. How could there be so many palace guards, and naturally knew to protect her when it caught fire.He just thought about it and waited for too many people to come to see it. If Xie Mo looked so embarrassed, wouldn't it be a shame to her, so people surrounded the entrance and no one was allowed in.Fearing that she would be frightened, someone sent a message that the imperial doctor was coming and waiting.Unexpectedly, what was waiting for him was a charred corpse.Xiao Hao is a little dazed now.Zheng Da was injured, so he was placed aside, and a little eunuch helped him to bandage his wound.

All of a sudden, the imperial physician came to feel the emperor's pulse.The imperial physician was coming in, and when he heard that Mrs. Xie was burned to death, she was so frightened that she dropped the medicine box.When I felt my pulse, my hands were shaking.

Everyone's corpses were carried to an empty room, and Xiao Chuzi tried to identify them. He couldn't find a dozen or so people before, so he couldn't match them up. He could only nod their heads.Point to point, the head is right.Then, the charred body in the bedroom is probably Miss Xie.It wasn't that one, and that was one of the few that were hard to identify.After hearing this news, everyone in Xiuyun Palace felt that they might not see the sun tomorrow.Xiao Chuzi came to report the news tremblingly.

"Ask Hu Yong to talk to the maid on duty at night. You go over there and show Zheng Da." The imperial physician had the guts to get a few needles, and Xiao Hao gradually regained his composure.Suppressing the fear in my heart, I found someone to ask.Hope there is any possibility.Just now Xiao Chuzi also said that he seemed to hear the sound of fighting before the fire started.

The court lady was still shaking, and Hu Yong was brought here in a coma from serious injuries.The imperial doctor looked at it and saw that it was seriously injured.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Xiao Mo looked at the maid.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty said that I'm a little hungry, so let this servant don't disturb others, go to the kitchen, the kitchen to see if there is anything ready-made to eat. If there is any, I will get some. When the servant finds the flour, I will prepare it for the Empress and Come down to eat. Then, I found out that there was a fire in the direction of the inner room of the empress, so I shouted for firefighters." The maid said tremblingly.

Xiao Mo's eyebrows were serious, "You are lucky!"

The maid was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground and couldn't get up again.At that time, she only cared about running for her life, and never went back to see how the empress was doing.Maybe, the empress waited and fell asleep again.Not long after it fell into the night, the empress fell asleep, and she was the only one who was on duty in front of her.The eunuchs and guards are all outside the bedroom.There was no one else in front of the empress at that time.Because Xiuyun Palace is small, there are only eight close-knit maids left, eight of whom do menial work, and the other are eunuchs and guards.This is how they work shifts on weekdays. One person is on duty in the first half of the night, and another person is on duty in the second half of the night.In case the empress did not run out because she fell asleep, even if no one else died, she would surely die.
