Chapter 49 Burning the Zichen Palace



Emperor Qin Huan asked a few more questions as usual, and Pei Sheng answered them all. It seemed that there was no problem with the harmony between the emperor and his ministers. After Pei Sheng relaxed his vigilance, Emperor Qin Huan suddenly said something.

"Sheng Pei, I value your talent very much. You must not do anything stupid."

This sentence frightened Pei Sheng to the point where he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He was originally guilty, and when he thought about the plans of Jin Guogong and others, he felt extremely frightened. But now he has boarded the pirate ship, even if he wants to protect Concubine Rong, he You can't go down easily.

"I, I will do my best to assist Your Majesty and teach His Highness the Crown Prince."

Emperor Qin Huan smiled half-heartedly and waved his hand to let him go.

After leaving the imperial study room, Pei Sheng immediately rushed to the Duke of Jin's house to talk to Duke Jin and Yue Chengliu about the imperial study. Yue Chengliu thought for a moment.

"It seems that the emperor has noticed our actions. We can't wait any longer. We will send an order to the palace today and let Concubine Rong take action."

Although the Duke of Jin was afraid, the matter had come to this, and he could only support his son: "Okay, just tonight, or else you will be benevolent!"

In the palace, Zi Xing once again got the letter from the rockery and running water, and quickly returned to Guanju Palace to report to Concubine Rong. Little did he know that she had been watched by Jintai, and her every move was under the white jade eyes.

After Jintai informed Bai Yuzhi of the matter, under Bai Yuzhi's arrangement, he guarded Hu'an and never left.

Bai Yuzhi undressed and lay on the bed. Emperor Qin Huan was handling government affairs in the imperial study tonight and would not come back. She and a few servants were the only ones in the palace. She asked people to put out all the candles, pretending that she and Hu'an were already dead. Sleep peacefully.

Wait for things to happen.

I don't know how long I waited, but it was probably midnight. Bai Yuzhi was chatting with the system in his mind to stay awake, when he suddenly heard Jin Tai's shout.

"Someone is coming! Put out the fire! Someone is coming quickly!"

The voice was very soft, but it sounded very anxious.

There were already imperial guards guarding outside Zichen Hall, but since Bai Yuzhi moved in, in order to avoid suspicion, those guards were guarding the front hall far away. Even if they could hear the cry for help, the fire would have already been strong by the time they arrived. .

The servants in the hall were also awakened by the sound. Yinting broke in to look at the white jade and found that the main hall was basically unaffected, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"How's it going in Hu'an?!"

Bai Yuzhi was "panicked". She stood up, as if she was in a panic and couldn't choose a way out.

Yin Ting's face was full of urgency: "Your Majesty, the fire in the side hall is extremely big now. The servants are putting out the fire, but it is not very effective. The imperial guards are coming, but there is no water inside and outside the Zichen Hall. I'm afraid it's too late!"

That's right, Bai Yuzhi pretended to be deceived by Concubine Rong and moved away all the water tanks and other things that could store water that could be seen in the open.

"Let's go out first!"

Bai Yuzhi escaped from the affected main hall surrounded by her servants. Just when she stepped out of the hall door, a burning beam fell down and almost hit several people.

She walked out of the main hall and rushed to the side hall. On the way, she met a string of imperial guards carrying buckets and other things to put out the fire, as well as Emperor Qin Huan who was rushing over.

To be honest, Bai Yuzhi had never seen Emperor Qin Huan look so embarrassed. The dragon robe on his body was messy, and his hair crown was crooked. He was holding the Emperor's Sword in his hand, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged due to excessive force.

Even the eyes were a bloodthirsty red.

Emperor Qin Huan calmed down a little when he saw the white jade, but it was still better than nothing.

The first thing he said was: "Queen, where is our Hu'an?"

There was a lot of talk at the moment, and Emperor Qin Huan was surrounded by a group of guards who wanted to stop him from putting him in danger, and there were also many minions around him who seemed to be focused on putting out the fire.

But if this is the case, how did this fire come about?

The fire was so fierce that buckets of water were poured down to no avail. It looked like oil or other flammable materials were poured around the house. It was obvious that someone had done this deliberately to burn Hu An inside.

Bai Yuzhi knew in her heart that Concubine Rong must have done this, but in order to prevent Concubine Rong from having a back-up plan, she still had a play to finish, and Emperor Qin Huan could not lose this crazy state.

Otherwise, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Thinking of this, her white jade eyes burst into tears as soon as she blinked. Her peach-like eyes stared at Emperor Qin Huan with a pitiful expression: "Your Majesty, you can't go in..."

Emperor Qin Huan knew that Hu'an had not come out.

He had a son in middle age and took him with him to teach him personally for three years. Emperor Qin Huan's care for Hu'an was unmatched by Bai Yuzhi himself. How could he bear to see his youngest son trapped in a sea of ​​​​fire with his life or death uncertain.

Emperor Qin Huan was still able to hold his own against the white jade, and just pushed the person away from him gently. However, the eunuchs and eunuchs who were still blocking him did not have such good luck. He struck down with his sword, and everyone I can only hide away in embarrassment.

"Anyone who stops me will die."

He is full of evil aura. At this moment, he does not look like an emperor who has been pampered for 20 years. He is much more domineering than the majestic and heroic figure on the battlefield when he was a boy. Perhaps it is the power of life and death that makes Emperor Qin Huan so powerful at this moment. The moment became extremely scary.

Having said that, Emperor Qin Huan wanted to personally risk his life and enter the Zichen Palace to save Hu'an, but how could Bai Yuzhi just let him in? Emperor Qin Huan didn't care whether Bai Yuzhi died or not, but Hu'an was only three years old now. If he died like this, she would be left to fight against the Duke of Jin. This task would not be completed in ten or eight years!

"His Majesty!"

At the moment when Emperor Qin Huan was about to rush into the Zichen Palace, Bai Yuzhi stepped forward and tried his best to hold him back. The fire in front of him was bright, reflecting Qin Huan's fierce face and the cold sword in his hand. The palace building was about to Qing, just as he was about to burn up, a huge beam slammed down, carrying blazing fire.

When he flew towards Emperor Qin Huan, Emperor Qin Huan looked at the collapsed palace with eyes wide open. He clenched his teeth and blood even spilled from the corners of his mouth.

"Huan——"

Peng——

The huge rumble of the collapse of the palace covered up Emperor Qin Huan's desperate and sad roar. The emperor's sword fell to the ground with a bang, and the sword's light that used to shine became extremely dim amid the ashes that filled the place.Like its owner, it seemed to have lost its vitality in just a moment.

After an unknown period of time, the fire was extinguished by the guards and slaves because there was no wood to burn, and the originally luxurious Zichen Palace, with its carved beams and painted beams, was completely reduced to ruins.

Emperor Qin Huan and Bai Yuzhi just hugged each other and fell in front of the ruins. The emperor and empress were so sad and embarrassed that the guards and servants behind them fell to their knees, and no one dared to say anything to complain.
