Fire shot into the sky.

Lin Yunyan fell to the ground and saw a mess everywhere she looked.

The burning sensation in the air made her breathless, and the scalding wind enveloped her, as if her hair would be on fire in the next moment.

Get out!

Where is the door?

The thick smoke billowed, causing Lin Yunyan to burst into tears. She couldn't wipe them away, so she could only open her eyes wide and try to discern the direction.

Then, she saw Xu Jian lying not far away.

"Xu..." As soon as Lin Yunyan opened her mouth, she was choked and coughed.

Xu Jian remained motionless.

Suddenly, Lin Yunyan realized that Xu Jian had fainted.

Memories from the previous moment also rushed into my mind.

At that time, she and Xu Jian were checking the place. Suddenly, without warning, the roof collapsed.

Xu Jian's quick eyesight and hands quickly pushed Lin Yunyan away who had no time to react, and all the tiles fell on him.

Although Lin Yunyan was away from the center of the collapse, she was affected and fell unconscious for a while. When she concentrated again, she was in this situation now.

She was like this, let alone Xu Jian who was hit hard.

Xu Jian must be rescued!

Holding back the scorching heat, Lin Yunyan pulled at the broken tiles on Xu Jian's body.

The more she dug, the heavier her heart sank.

Xu Jian's pulse could still be felt on his neck, but he showed no sign of waking up.

What's even worse is that Xu Jian fell out of the wheelchair when she was pushed earlier. The wheelchair turned sideways and was pinned underneath by the overturned tables and chairs.

Without a wheelchair, how could she move the unconscious Xu Jian out of the house?

Even if Xu Jian wakes up, he can't walk, let alone like this...

Leaving Xu Jian behind and escaping alone should be the best choice at the moment.

Lin Yunyan knew, but she couldn't do it.

She and Xu Jian were grasshoppers on the same rope. If Xu Jian was lost, she, Lin Yunyan, would not be able to survive beyond the first day of junior high school, but not the fifteenth day.

It is even very possible that the murderer is still waiting outside.

This house collapsed for no reason, and it could be said to be "in disrepair." But if it caught fire after it collapsed, how could it be that there was no human effort?

The murderer's purpose was to let her and Xu Jian die here!

Thinking of this, a surge of resentment filled his heart instantly.

It's a pity that the two of them tried their best, but still fell short. The truth has to be covered up again and cannot be revealed to the light!

The tiles scratched her fingers and palms, which were bloody, and her thoughts became blurry. Lin Yunyan used her last strength to dig and move.

He was definitely going to die, at least let Xu Jian die easier.

His legs were useless and he couldn't eat well.

How uncomfortable it is to be pressed down by such heavy rubble...

These sins and pains cannot be allowed to those bastards. They really, really will die in peace!

scum——

scum——

The sound came from all directions, deafening.

Is that cicada chirping?

Why do you hear cicadas chirping?

Lin Yunyan suddenly opened her eyes, and what she saw was a vast expanse of white light.

She was startled for a moment, and realized that it was sunlight. The midsummer afternoon sunlight filtered in through the window lattice, making the hall extremely bright.

And she was leaning on the Arhat bed under the window.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Yunyan looked at the sound and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong with me?"

As soon as the words came out, the maid's expression changed from timid to frightened.

Lin Yunyan frowned, how could Wan Yue be so young?

Something's wrong!

She was busy observing her surroundings.

The ancient shelves are filled with exquisite ornaments, the flowers in the vase are in bud, and a childlike painting scroll hangs on the wall, which was her masterpiece when she was a child.

Every scene and thing is the same as in memory.

This is clearly the west wing of Cining Palace!

In her early years, she often went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager. When the empress had something to do and she needed to avoid it, she would let her come here to take a rest.

But since the death of the Queen Mother, she has never been here again.

The young Wan Yue, the side hall that I have not been to for many years, and the fire that burned so hard that there was no way to escape...

An idea came up that was so shocking that Lin Yunyan couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"You," Wan Yue asked tentatively, "are you suffering from a nightmare?"

Lin Yunyan's eyelashes trembled slightly.

Are you having a nightmare?

It was truly a nightmare, long and depressing, intertwined with countless calculations, betrayals, overt and covert attacks.

Her family was ruined, and Xu Jian was desperate. In the past few years, she and Xu Jian had a bloody head-to-head collision. The glimmer of hope she tried to hold on to in her hands eventually turned into grief, anger, pain, and despair in the fire, with billowing smoke and hot flames baring their teeth and claws. They laughed at their overestimation.

Bloody and vivid!

So, when I suddenly woke up from the dream and returned to the bright side hall, thinking of that experience, the bright sunlight could not illuminate the haze in my heart.

They were all there, reminding her that even a dream was real and heart-wrenching.

If she can't reverse it, she will go to that situation again and bear all the pain unforgettable.

People cannot fall in the same pit a second time.

Not only would she not fall down, she would also kick down the person who dug the hole, so that those who started it could taste it with all their own money!

Looking at the cautious moon, Lin Yunyan said: "I have a nightmare, I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

Wan Yue was asked.

That seems to be the case.

However, the princess' appearance before had really frightened her.

The princess was closing her eyes to rest her mind, but she suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes filled with gloom and anger, as if she wanted to fight someone desperately.

Her princess has a pair of beautiful eyes. Who wouldn't say that her eyes are smiling, twinkling and can talk.

When had these beautiful eyes ever had such a sinister aura?

"This slave is timid." Wan Yue said timidly.

Lin Yunyan smiled when she heard this.

The Wan Yue she knew was loyal and tenacious. These two things were worth more than a million.

What's the point of being timid?

"Courage will become stronger with practice." Lin Yunyan said.

After all, who hasn’t come here like this?

The footsteps came from far away and stopped outside the curtain.

"Princess, the concubine is here. The Queen Mother please come over."

Lin Yunyan responded, but did not rush out. Instead, she went inside and sat down in front of the dressing mirror.

The girl in the mirror is in her prime, with bright eyes and white teeth, picturesque eyebrows, and beads in her hair, swaying gently with her movements.

She was combing her hair like a girl, and it must have been 13 years ago in Yongjia.

Because in the spring of thirteen years, she married Xu Jian and combed her hair like a woman.

Was that twelve years, or eleven years?

Glancing at Wan Yue who was arranging her hair, Lin Yunyan thought to herself: If the Empress Dowager hadn't been waiting, she would have asked carefully.

However, no matter what year it is, no matter what the situation is, she must live well.

It was not easy to keep the Queen Mother waiting for a long time, so Lin Yunyan went to the main hall.

As soon as she entered the inner hall, she saw several people sitting at the square table.

On the rosewood bone-inlaid Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea table that the Queen Mother loved very much, there was a horse tag. She, Concubine Wen and Grandma Wang were sitting around, looking at her happily.

"Quick, quick, quick," the Empress Dowager waved, "Three are missing and one is waiting for you."

Yes.

Lin Yunyan spent most of her time accompanying the Empress Dowager.

After taking a seat, throw the dice, grab the cards and set up the cards.

Lin Yunyan:......

A bad hand.

God is angry and people are angry.

Lin Yunyan rolled her fingers across the cards and rolled her eyes.

No matter how bad the cards were, she had to straighten them out step by step.

Her new life started with such a pile of cards.
