The palace was on fire again, and this time the fire was even bigger than the one in Fengxi Palace before.
When the guards outside noticed that something was wrong, the abandoned palace in Leng Palace was already filled with thick smoke, and almost no one could enter the palace that was burned by the fire. Yu Yanfeng limped and was supported by his men and rushed to the door of Leng Palace. Looking at it, it almost turned red. When half the sky was in flames, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Who can tell me, why none of you saw such a big fire? Are all of you blind?!"
The few guards guarding the cold palace were dug out from under the covers of the corner guard. They were all kneeling on the ground and did not dare to say a word.
Yu Yanfeng said angrily: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you go put out the fire!!"
There was a chaos outside the door of Leng Palace, with people carrying water coming and going. After the commotion, when the fire was finally extinguished, the entire main hall of Leng Palace was reduced to a crumbling empty shelf, and everything inside was burned to the ground.
"Commander, a burnt female body was found inside."
Those who came to report back wanted to bury their heads in the ground. There was only one woman in this cold palace, and that was Empress Lu who had just been sent in.
It is self-evident who the female corpse is.
Yu Yanfeng glanced at the charred corpse that had been taken out and burned. He couldn't tell who it was before he was alive. He took a deep breath. His Majesty didn't want Queen Lu to live, and he didn't care about her life or death, but even if she He could die of illness, starvation, or freezing, but why should he be burned to death?
He could imagine how angry Emperor An would be after this news was sent to him when he knew that there was another fire in the palace, the fire almost spread to other palaces, and the guards knew nothing about it.
For a moment, Yu Yanfeng's buttocks and back where he had been punished by the cane began to hurt severely.
"Go and check the cause of the fire. There is nothing flammable in the cold palace. There is no flint here. There shouldn't be such a big fire. Also, all the people on duty in the cold palace tonight and those patrolling around are sent to the Criminal Division to wait for His Majesty's death! "
"Then this corpse..."
"Collect the bones first and find a place to place them. I will deal with them after I see His Majesty."
Yu Yanfeng went to see Emperor An with a heavy heart. When Emperor An learned that there was a fire in the cold palace, he scolded him. Standing outside, Feng Neishi heard Emperor An's scoldings coming from inside, and occasionally there was the sound of something falling to the ground. After a while, he cursed The voice gradually became lower.
When Yu Yanfeng came out, he staggered a little.
"Commander Yu, are you okay?" Waiter Feng stepped forward and gave him a hand.
Yu Yanfeng's lips turned white: "It's okay."
Feng Neishi helped him: "Did your Majesty punish you?" He was a little worried: "You have not recovered from the injury you received from the previous punishment, and you will not be on duty in the palace tonight. The people below should not hold you accountable for their negligence. The palace There is Commander Liu inside, why would His Majesty point at you alone..."
Hearing this, Yu Yanfeng whispered: "It is my job to be a guard in the palace, so your majesty should punish me, so that your majesty will remember that I am still injured and allow me to go to receive my punishment after I recover without delaying my duties." .”
When Feng Neishi heard this, his eyes flashed, and when he heard something moving in the palace, he quickly said: "Then the Za family is looking for someone to take you out?"
Yu Yanfeng just knelt for too long and was hit by Emperor An with a heavy object, which made him unable to recover. Now that he had stood for a while, he was no longer in serious trouble.
"Thank you for your kindness, father-in-law, but I'm fine. I have to deal with the affairs of Leng Gong later."
Hearing Emperor An calling "Feng Lai" inside, Yu Yanfeng said:
"Father-in-law, please go and do your work first. I can just go by myself."
Then Chamberlain Feng let go and said, "Commander Yu, please be patient."
After seeing Yu Yanfeng off, there was no one else in front of the palace. Waiter Feng waved to the side, and a young eunuch hurried forward carrying something.
He whispered a few words to the little eunuch. The little eunuch nodded quickly, handed the object in his hand to Feng Lai, lowered his head and quietly retreated.
"Feng Lai, what a bitch, where are the people?!"
Waiter Feng quickly adjusted his clothes, held the incense burner in his hand and pushed the door open with his head lowered.
"Your Majesty, this servant just went to prepare the soothing incense. Come here..."
…
Song Jinxiu was knocked unconscious and brought out of the house. When he woke up in a daze, he found that his eyes were pitch black.
His mouth was blocked, his throat was itchy and numb, and he couldn't make a sound. His hands and feet were tied tightly, and there was only a small space around him. If he moved even slightly, he would bump into someone blocking him. The wooden board looked like there was something soft under the body, but it was a little bit irritating.
He twisted desperately, but found that the knot tied him in place. Only his head could move. There was a tiny hole on top of his head, revealing a sliver of cool moonlight. He turned his head away with force, but unexpectedly bumped into something. thing.
The next moment, his pupils suddenly opened wide and his whole body froze in place.
Head...skull? ! !
On the skull whose flesh was still fresh, the skull was tilted to the side, its eyes were wide open, and the flesh and blood on its face was particularly bloody. He suddenly knew what was hitting him just now, it was human bones.
He was locked in a coffin! !
Song Jinxiu's eyes kept trembling with fear, and the cold sweat on his back instantly wet his clothes. He tried desperately to struggle, opened his mouth wide and wanted to shout, but the thing in his mouth made him unable to make any sound. His body couldn't even try to avoid the bones beside him.
Under the moonlight, his face was whiter than the dead man's head.
"What is this place?"
"Why are we here?!"
“Ah, there’s a snake!!!”
The sudden sound outside made Song Jinxiu's frightened heart beat harder. He recognized that the person who screamed in fear was his grandmother, and the voices that spoke before were his father and mother.
After the Song family was assigned, Song Jinxiu had no ability to exonerate them, but later he used Song Shulan to get the "care" of the Yongshun uncle's house, and then stepped on them to gain the favor of the Holy Qian and climb up to the second prince, so he was able to take care of them.
He spent a large sum of money to buy some people who worked hard in the world. He originally wanted to secretly take care of the Song family. Unexpectedly, when he went there, he found out that the official responsible for escorting him died in an accident on the road, and the Song family took advantage of the chaos to "escape". , but in fact he was taken away secretly.
Song Jinxiu was so shocked that he tried his best to snatch the person away, but he didn't dare to place him somewhere else. He could only quietly send the person back to the capital and put him in a farmer's home far away from the city. Dark thoughts under the lamp.
He knew that Tang Ning hated the Song family, and even more aware that she wanted to kill them all.
But the Song family has fallen. Song Tan died on the way to his marriage. Song Hong lost one eye. Mrs. Song has also been in constant pain. His mother is no longer as noble as she used to be. Her face is weathered and she has several broken bones. It can be said that one finger has suffered a lot.
Song Jinxiu felt that no matter how big the grievances between the Song family and Tang Ning were, they should be resolved.
