When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 62
"What a fire."

The flames in the night were so bright that even Ying Zheng was awakened from his sleep. At this time, he was standing in front of the bedroom with only a robe on. To the west, the red color of the flames rendered the night.

"My lord, be careful of catching a cold." The startled salamander hurriedly ran out of the bedroom with a cloak in his arms.

"It's you who should be careful about catching a cold." Ying Zheng took the cloak from the startling salamander, and wrapped the startling salamander under the cloak with his backhand.

Tonight, the startled salamander who got Zhao Ji's permission not to rush back to Xingle Palace naturally stayed in Xianyang Palace, but never thought that there would be a fire tonight.

"My lord, could there be an assassin?" The startled salamander held under the cloak by Ying Zheng looked at the red sky in the distance, and thought of a bad possibility.

"Is this an assassin's method?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Well, the assassin's favorite method is to first set fire to create chaos, and then take advantage of the chaos to take the target's life." The startled salamander replied.

"You like to do this too?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.

"No, I don't need to use such methods at all, but, isn't this fire too bizarre? Since Xianyang Palace was built, there has only been one fire." Although he was hugged by Ying Zheng, he still observed vigilantly The startled salamanders around said with a bit of pride.

"This fire is not unusual, maybe someone did it on purpose." Ying Zheng looked at the direction of the fire and thought.

"Do it on purpose? Is there really an assassin?" The startled salamander's expression suddenly changed, and he became the former snare killer again.

"It was done on purpose, but it's not an assassin. Maybe it's that person. I'll find out when I ask them tomorrow." Ying Zheng said.

Although Ying Zheng said so, in his heart, he was almost certain that this was what the big goblin was doing.

Because Ying Zheng knew who lived in that direction.

"Your Majesty?" the startled salamander asked curiously, Ying Zheng seemed to know something.

"Okay, it's late at night, we should rest." Ying Zheng pinched the soft flesh under the startled salamander's ribs and said.

"My lord, I'm not in good health, so I can't serve you." Startled Salamander said suddenly.

From Ying Zheng's actions, the startled salamander felt that he had received some kind of hint.

"What's your fish head thinking?" Ying Zheng tapped his finger on the forehead of the startled salamander when he heard this, and said angrily and helplessly.

"My lord, it's really not possible." The startled salamander said.

Before coming to Xianyang Palace, she had promised Zhao Ji that if she disobeyed the order, she could only return to Xianyang Palace after the child was born. This situation was something Jing Xi desperately wanted to avoid.

"Then let Gu Lai serve you." Ying Zheng said with a smile, just thinking that such a startled salamander seemed quite interesting.

"Serve... me?" The startled salamander who was being carried forward by Ying Zheng was puzzled.

"Whether it's sweeter there, I just want to know." Ying Zheng said.

"I don't know." Although she really wanted to say that she didn't know what Ying Zheng was talking about, Jing Xi's defense was very weak. Her understanding of Ying Zheng sometimes didn't need words. .

"So, I have to find the answer by myself."

Hearing this, the startled salamander subconsciously covered his chest, only feeling that something was flowing inside.

······
When Ying Zheng's provocation ignited a cluster of flames in Jing Xi's heart, and when it was out of control, another cluster of larger flames was slowly extinguished under the efforts of everyone.

And Mingzhu was holding Honglian and standing miserably in front of the ruins, half of her long hair was burned, but fortunately she didn't hurt her face.

"What's going on here?" A servant in charge looked at the ruins in front of him with a gloomy expression, but there was more fear and a trace of joy.

Fortunately, there was no bigger fire, otherwise, there would be no chance of his life being saved.

"Accident, it's just an accident. I don't know why the stove fell down and ignited the room." At this time, Mingzhu said with a moment of fear.

Although she had planned for a long time to do what she was doing now, when she actually put it into action, she realized that no matter how determined she was in her heart, she would still be afraid when facing danger.

"Accident? Just an accident?" the steward questioned, but he could only question. He knew that although the two people in front of him were only spoils of the Korean War, they were the spoils of the owner of the palace. He could despise them, but absolutely Can't hurt them.

"Elder-in-law, now is not the time to pursue these things. Fortunately, there has not been a bigger fire. This is a good thing. If the higher-ups pursue it, Mingzhu needs to face it." At this time, Mingzhu developed the first in Xianyang Palace. Wanyu, the offline maid, came out and persuaded the steward.

"Huh?" The steward thought for a while, and knew that once the higher-ups intervened, Mingzhu still needed to step up, and he couldn't speak too much, otherwise, if Mingzhu said something unfavorable to him when facing the higher-ups, That would be troublesome.

After being summoned by the boss, the people here dispersed separately, and Mingzhu also followed Wanyu to her residence to stay overnight.

"Just now, who was that servant who rushed into the sea of ​​flames to save me? You should know him, right?" Mingzhu who came to Wanyu's residence asked her friend after she settled the sleeping Honglian.

"That man's name is Zhao Gao, and he is a servant of Dianshu Pavilion. I never thought that he was quite brave. At that time, even those guards with strong martial arts dared not rush in, but he actually rushed in." Wan Wan Yu recalled.

Although Mingzhu was ruthless enough to dare to burn herself with fire, the fire was uncontrollable after all. Therefore, at that time, Mingzhu almost died before she was able to leave the school, and was surrounded by the sea of ​​flames, unable to advance or retreat for a while. He went in and rescued her and Honglian.

"Zhao Gao? In the future, if I have a chance, I should thank him well. After all, it is also a life-saving grace." Mingzhu pondered.

"It should be so, but, sister Mingzhu, can I really see the king this time?" Wanyu asked worriedly.

In Mingzhu's self-directed and self-acted "tragedy", she appeared as an important supporting role. If Mingzhu can achieve her goal, then she will naturally be able to take advantage of the situation with the help of Mingzhu.

Even in the Qin Palace, real beauties are still scarce resources. Not everyone can have the beauty like Mingzhu. Wanting to live a better life in this palace, Wanyu knows very well that she Something needed to be done, and Pearl was her hope.

"I don't know, but it's always a gamble. We have done everything we can, and the next thing can only be left to God." Mingzhu said.

She has exhausted her personnel affairs, and the rest can only be left to fate.

"It depends on your life." Mingzhu looked at the sleeping Honglian and said to herself.

Guren is her trump card.
