Married to His Royal Highness the Remnant King
Chapter 402: Cold Palace Incident
Beichen Qi blinked his starry eyes. What did this mean?
Is that how he understands it?
Liuli forgave him? Agree to let him take care of her?
"Why, don't you want to?"
Seeing Beichen Qi's confused look, Jiang Liuli thought he was very cute.
I've seen Beichen Qi in various expressions, but I've never seen him look flattered!
"Yes! Of course I do!"
Beichen Qi nodded repeatedly like pounding garlic, he wanted nothing more than that.
"I'll take care of government affairs and move in here in the evening!"
As if he was afraid that Jiang Liuli would suddenly change her mind, he stood up immediately.
"I'll clean it up right away!"
Beichen Qi took three steps toward the door, and suddenly remembered something important. He turned around and pointed at the food on the table: "Why don't I wait until you finish eating before I go."
Jiang Liuli couldn't help laughing. Did he get into the role so quickly?
Without him, would I still not be able to use chopsticks?
"I can do it myself!"
Looking at Beichenqi's anxious back as he left, Jiang Liuli couldn't help but smile.
At this meal, Jiang Liuli ate one bowl more than usual.
"Your Highness is an excellent cook!"
Qiaohui couldn't help but tease.
"That's right! Do you want to try it too?"
Liuli was in a good mood, so she naturally didn't bother with Qiaohui.
However, what Qiaohui said was also true.
"I am not so lucky! Your Highness made it for you and your son!"
Qiaohui still has self-awareness.
"Don't be a slave, I'm the one who goes there. Didn't I tell you? What kind of master am I?"
Jiang Liuli corrected Qiaohui again.
This girl is very stubborn. Even after so many times of talking to her, she still won't listen.
"Of course, Master!"
Qiaohui looked at Liuli's belly and sighed.
"The baby is about to be born, isn't His Royal Highness planning to give you a status? Even if you are fine, what about the baby?"
"The emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is. It's not your turn to be anxious!"
Liuli stroked her bulging belly, looking calm and relaxed.
Is status that important?
All she wants is for the child to be born safely, grow up healthily and live happily.
In fact, having no official status is a good thing for her and her child.
Jiang Liuli was still thinking that when the time was right, she would find an opportunity to ask Beichen Qi for help. Maybe she and her child could leave the palace and live an ordinary life.
This deep palace backyard, full of intrigue and deception, is ultimately not the life that they, mother and son, long for.
"You should be more careful! While His Highness is in a good mood these days, you can mention it to His Highness the Crown Prince. Even if you can't be the Crown Princess, being a Crown Prince's concubine is also good! Otherwise, how can the child survive?"
"What? You're not allowed to have a child without a legitimate status?"
Liuli laughed and teased, "I can't control that!"
"You - you are still in the mood to joke. Only when you have a title can your child be included in the family tree! A prince and a grandson of the emperor, don't you know what that means?"
Status, wealth, standing at the pinnacle at birth!
This is something that others can only dream of, but in Jiang Liuli's eyes, why is it nothing?
Qiaohui wanted to knock open Liuli's head to see how such a smart girl could be so confused at the critical moment!
"Okay! Okay! Got it, I know what's going on!"
Seeing Qiaohui and her getting anxious and looking like they were disappointed with each other, Liuli simply agreed. "Can I have another bowl of rice?"
"you--"
Qiaohui sighed again. She was so anxious that she was fuming, but Liuli could still be so calm and even had a good appetite.
But, we can't stop her from eating, right?
"The food is cold, I'll heat it up!"
After entertaining Beichen Qi and talking to Qiaohui for such a long time, Jiang Liuli felt that she was physically and mentally exhausted.
As soon as Qiaohui left, she leaned against the bed and closed her eyes.
She had originally planned to take a short nap, but she became overwhelmed with sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
Little did they know that at this moment a dark shadow flashed past the door.
Accompanied by a cloud of thick smoke, raging fire surrounded the house.
When Qiaohui came back after heating up the food, she saw thick smoke billowing from afar and she immediately had a bad feeling!
"Liuli! There's a fire! There's a fire! Someone come quickly!"
Qiaohui anxiously threw away the food box in her hand and ran towards the house regardless of her own safety.
Looking at the huge fireball in front of her, Liuli was stunned!
The doors and windows were all engulfed in flames. How could there be a way to survive?
She shouted Liuli's name at the top of her lungs, but the only response she got was the sound of crackling sparks.
"There's a fire! Help! There's a fire! Help! Help!"
Qiaohui seemed to have forgotten that this was the cold palace, and no one would hear him even if he shouted at the top of his lungs.
After shouting for a long time, Liuli's figure did not appear in front of him. It seemed that she was trapped in the house.
In the emergency, Qiaohui didn't care about anything else. She immediately took off her half-sleeve, put it on her head, covering her hair, mouth and nose, and then she made up her mind and rushed into the sea of fire with her head down.
"Liuli! Cough!"
The house was filled with thick smoke and you couldn't see anything more than one meter away.
Fortunately, this is where Qiaohui lives every day. Even with her eyes closed, she knows where the tables and chairs are.
Enduring the burning pain, Qiaohui finally made her way to the bed with difficulty.
Sure enough, Liuli was seen lying on the bed motionless.
"Liuli! Wake up!"
Qiaohui patted Liuli's cheek, trying to wake her up, but Liuli, who was drugged, didn't move at all.
The fire was getting more and more fierce, the house was getting hotter and hotter, and beams and tiles kept falling from above. Every second you stayed in the house, the more dangerous it was.
Anxious Qiao Hui didn't know where she got the strength from. She squatted down, gritted her teeth, and used all her strength to pick up the chubby Liuli.
East Palace
"Your Highness, it's bad! There's a fire! There's a fire!"
Upon learning that something had happened in the cold palace, coincidentally, it was the courtyard where Jiang Liuli was imprisoned, Eunuch Shun was so anxious that he lost his mind and didn't care about any rules.
"Where is the flood? Well, it's dry, so just put it out!"
Beichen Qi didn't even raise his head. He was busy reviewing memorials. He wanted to finish his official business as soon as possible so that he could serve Liuli earlier.
He didn't want to stand in the yard tonight.
"Yes, it's the cold palace!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Shun felt that the temperature in the imperial study suddenly dropped by several degrees.
With a "pop", the memorial in Beichen Qi's hand fell.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
"There's a fire in the cold palace!"
Eunuch Shun gritted his teeth and repeated it again.
I only felt a gust of wind blowing past my ears and a dark shadow passing by my eyes, but in the blink of an eye, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already used his lightness skills to disappear without a trace.
It's obvious that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have gone to the cold palace! (End of this chapter)
