Chapter 146
Suddenly, the sky was illuminated by a white light.

It was as if God was deeply moved by this scene and suddenly opened his eyes.

It woke up everyone's vision, and then, there was a "sensation", and at the same time as thunder was heard from the sky, heavy rain followed.

Li Huai looked up at the sky, accepting the rain washing with expectation and gratitude.

The surroundings were in chaos, the burning fires were being extinguished little by little, thick smoke and rain and fog were competing to coexist.

"Your Majesty!" Eunuch De held an umbrella and came over to cover the emperor from the rain.

At this time, someone from behind came from the panic holding an umbrella to support the queen and Concubine Yu.

Concubine Yu Gui came up, took the emperor's hand and said, "God wants to keep her, Your Majesty—"

However, no matter how heavy the rain was, the Queen also stepped up and persuaded, "Your Majesty, this must be the torrential rain summoned by evildoers using spells!"

"Empress, this statement is wrong!"

But at some point, behind the crowd, there was a woman wearing a black poncho. This woman was about 35 or [-] years old, and her brows and eyes revealed a tranquility that was very different from the heavy rain.

Although Mrs. Rong Guo lived in seclusion, the queen recognized her at a glance.

"Nianci has met the Emperor, Empress, Concubine Yu..."

Ningguo's wife, Zhuge Nianci, Yipin Gaoming's wife, before she married into the Ningguo's mansion, she was a famous person beside the Queen Mother. It has something to do with her, but since she married Ning Guogong, she has been so low-key that she can't talk about world affairs.

Unexpectedly, Li Huai invited her, even the emperor was quite surprised.

"Why did Madam come into the palace?" Although the emperor asked, there was a lot of respect in his eyes. Speaking of which, when he was still the king of Chu, it was with the help of this woman that he had the opportunity to ascend the throne.

Although the old things are gone, the emperor will remember them in his heart.

So even with it, he took good care of the Ningguo government.

But this Zhuge Nianci didn't show any pettiness at all, in the rain, he lowered his head slightly, "Nianci heard that there is a monster in this palace, so he came here to help."

When the queen heard this, she immediately stood up and said: "Since Ma'am is here to help, quickly find a way to subdue that evildoer, she even killed Master Zhixian!"

The other party looked over, and the rain completely extinguished the fire!
Among the group of people in front, Li Huai struggled to get out of Habayashi Wei's control.

"Your Majesty, the one locked in the iron cage is Princess Xu?" Zhuge Nianci hurriedly asked.

The emperor replied: "Exactly!"

Her expression changed, and she said anxiously: "The emperor mistrusted that ghost monk!"

When the emperor heard this, his expression changed drastically.

"What do you think Ma'am said?"

Fang Fang replied: "Just now when Nian Ci entered the palace, outside the gate of the Twelve Palaces, I saw a cloud of black air going away. It was a ghost spirit that had been doing evil to the world for hundreds of years. Master Zhixian's body entered the palace to deceive the emperor, the emperor can look at the body of Master Zhixian in front of him, it must have been dead for many days and has already become stiff."

Duanpo was vicious and cruel, she never kept her life alive, even ghosts, so when she wanted to take Zhixian's body, she killed Zhixian too!

After hearing this, the emperor immediately sent someone to look at it.

Just now Zhixian's body was next to the fire, some cassocks were burned, but the body was not destroyed, it was indeed as stiff as a stone, it did not look like a fresh death at all.

The fire was extinguished, and the rain, as eager as it came, went away.

In an instant, it seemed as if it had never been there except for the rainwater that accumulated around it.

At this time, the emperor asked: "Why can Princess Xu fly? Purple light appears in her body?"

Zhuge Nianci didn't answer right away, she frowned slightly, and after a while, asked, "Purple light?"

"Yes, Ziguang! I don't even believe that she is not a demon!" The queen wanted to kill Princess Xu wholeheartedly, even if the situation changed, she resolutely did not change her original intention.

After the other party heard this, his eyes didn't move, he just turned to the emperor's side and said: "This palace has attracted such a powerful ghost just now, how could it be possible to leave so easily, I'm afraid it was burnt by something, it must be the princess. What magic weapon is on your body, just enough to force that ghost back, Your Majesty, in this world, it is not a miracle that the upper level magic weapon emits colorful light!"

After hearing this explanation, the emperor suddenly realized how hasty his decision was.

"Quick, save Princess Xu!"

After his voice fell, Li Huai had already broken through the crowd and ran towards the iron cage!

Around the iron cage, there are ruins, with black charcoal still smoking.

And Xi Lan was lying there, the blue robe on her body could no longer see its original color.

The iron gate was pulled open, and Li Huai knelt beside her, calling out sadly, "Xi Lan! Xi Lan!"

His throat had already been torn from the struggle just now, and his voice seemed to be wrapped in a thick layer of fog.

There was no response, he stretched out his hand and hugged her vigorously, without sniffing her, he knew in his heart that she must still be alive.

Just like that, Li Huai hugged him and stood up.

Her hand fell down weakly, and he looked at it with distressed eyes. Apart from the black charcoal, there were red burns on it. She was really bruised all over.

"The imperial doctor? Where is the imperial doctor?" He howled impatiently, there were constantly hurried figures shuttling around, and the first ones to reach him were naturally the Yan brothers.

"The imperial doctor has already been invited, first carry the princess to the nearest Fengqi Palace..."

The Habayashi guards who blocked Li Huai just now listened to the order and wanted to go up to help.

Li Huai glanced at it from the corner of his eye, with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Go away!"

The few people were frightened, retreated timidly, and followed from a distance.

A group of people hurriedly followed to Fengqi Palace.

Li Huai put Xi Lan on the bed in the side hall of Fengqi Palace. He wanted to wipe the smudges on her hands, but he was afraid of getting her wounds, so he threw the facekerchief handed over by the maid on the ground and cursed angrily: "Where's the imperial doctor? Why hasn't the imperial doctor come?"

"Huai'er calm down!" Concubine Yu hurried over to grab his hand.

But he didn't calm down as he was obedient. He looked out the door with a knife in his eyes. The queen was surrounded by a group of palace servants, standing there watching without apology.

At this time, all the imperial doctors who were on duty in the imperial hospital tonight came in panic.

They first checked the princess' breath and pulse, and finally confirmed that there was still a glimmer of life, and Li Huai recovered a little bit.

After calming down, he stayed outside, waiting for the imperial doctor to apply medicine for Xi Lan.

"What else do you have to say?" The emperor's angry voice came from outside the hall.

Even so, the empress still had a face like Mount Tai, but she lowered her head slightly in the face of the emperor's accusation.

"Your Majesty, you have also heard from Mrs. Ning that it is the powerful ghost that is causing the trouble, how can a person fight against the ghost? The concubine really has nothing to say..."

"You, you have a heart like a snake and a scorpion, and you want to kill that child!"

Upon hearing this, Nalan's expression was innocent and indignant. "Your majesty, the concubine is also bewitched by ghosts, how can I blame the concubine?"

The emperor looked angry and didn't look at her at all.

But he couldn't continue to blame, after all, he himself was also fascinated by Na Zhixian at that time.

However, he almost forgot that there was another person.

"Where's that Yu Meiren? That Yu Meiren insisted that the princess is a monster. Didn't you instigate her?"

When the queen heard it, she burst into tears with grief and anger, and the performance was so realistic.

"Your majesty, the concubine has nothing to do with that charming woman. It was just a mistake when she was looking for Huai'er and learned about it. How could it be that the concubine instructed her to come out to slander Princess Xu? Your majesty, even A concubine can buy people's hearts, but how can he control the powerful ghosts who do evil and deceive people?"

The emperor did not answer, but the anger on his face remained undiminished.

"Come on, go and press that Yu Meiren up, I want to interrogate myself, and I must find out who is behind the scenes!"

Habayashi Wei next to him took the order and immediately went to find Yu Meiren.

But it didn't take long to report in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, Yu Meiren is missing!"

The emperor was shocked when he heard the words, strode over to Nalan's side, pointed at her face and asked, "Where did you get her?"

Nalan's face was innocent and sad of being suspected by the closest relatives.

"Your Majesty, when you come here this evening, the concubine has been closely beside you, and you haven't even had a sip of tea. How can you hide her? Is this the kind of person that the concubine is in the emperor's heart?"

The emperor remained silent. Over the past few decades, apart from their secret rivalry for power, she was his wife after all.

He naturally knew what she looked like.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Nalan looked disheartened.

"Okay, since the emperor doesn't believe it, Luo Zhao will prove it to you!"

When the emperor heard her proclaiming herself, he was stunned for a moment, for how many years he hadn't heard his queen proclaiming her boudoir name!
My heart softened, what did she say?She will prove it to him?

How can she prove it?

Immediately turned around to look, and saw the queen struggling to hit the side palace pillar.

He was startled, and hurriedly ran over to stop it, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the corner of the Queen's sleeve, covered in a 'wow', with the sound of cloth being torn.

He could feel the force of Nalan's collision, wanting to die.

"Luo Zhao!" He called anxiously, and the queen had already bumped into her.

Blood flowed down like a column from her head very quickly, and now the emperor panicked!
"Doctor, come quickly, where is the doctor?"

There was an imperial doctor in the hall, and when they heard the call, three or five came out immediately.

Concubine Yu Gui also came out together. She saw the panicked look of the emperor holding Nalan's, her face was filled with astonishment and loss.

In this deep palace, she has met so many new concubines, but after so many years, what she can't let go of the most is the woman in his arms, right?

This woman robbed everything she was proud of.

Glory and love!
However, she couldn't show it in the slightest, she could only make room silently. At that moment, she thought viciously, just like this, how good it would be to let this woman hit her head to death?

At the same time, in the side hall, the imperial doctor who treated Xi Lan came out from the inner room.

Li Huai strode over. "How is the princess?"

"Don't worry, my lord. My concubine is blessed with great fortune. She just fainted from her throat. After a while, she can wake up after drinking a bowl of clearing lung decoction, but..."

This imperial doctor was the oldest in the imperial hospital, seeing his distressed face, Li Huai asked eagerly, "But what?"

"However, Wangfei's hands and neck are severely burned. They cannot be bandaged and must be left to dry outside. During this period of time, it will definitely be painful, and... I am afraid that there will be ugly burn marks in the future."

This must be a bad thing for a princess with a noble status.

Li Huai was stunned for a moment, then strode inside.

In the inner room, there were only two maids waiting inside. Seeing him coming in, the maids retreated cautiously.

He came to the edge of the bed, squatted down, and carefully looked at Xi Lan's washed palms with distress.

The scalded wound was so red that it hurt even to look at it with the naked eye. She must be in pain.

"Xi Lan, I'm sorry, it's my king who came back late..." Otherwise, she might not be hurt!
His dignified eyebrows showed no signs of stretching, and Xi Lan's comatose sleeping face reminded him of how she anxiously stood in front of him in the cave on the west mountain, waiting for him to wake up.

"It must have been tough then?" he asked her softly.

I still remember the scene when he saw her appearing in a mask when he was on the west mountain, his whole body was hot.

He heard her say over and over again, Li Huai, hold on.

At that time, she was too flustered, and her voice was her original voice.

He thought he was dreaming, but he wasn't.

But that voice was the only motivation to keep his consciousness. He hoped that even Xi Lan, who had his eyes closed, could hear his voice.

"What did you look like in the past, when you wake up, can you tell me slowly?"

Naturally, Xi Lan couldn't hear his voice, she was as quiet as a lifeless corpse.

Li Huai was a little scared, and cautiously stretched out his hand to touch her skin, and felt it was warm, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

He comforted him softly: "Don't be afraid, it doesn't matter even if the scars are ugly, I don't despise you, you are still my concubine, do you understand?"
