Chapter 403 Escape from Death
When Beichen Qi arrived, the fire was still burning in full swing!
Eunuchs and palace maids came upon hearing the news, each carrying buckets of water, and the scene became a mess.

"Where's Liuli? Where is Liuli?"

"Your Highness, I haven't seen Miss Jiang yet!"

Li Xiang'er, who arrived earlier, had already turned around, but did not see the figures of Liuli and his servant.

Those two must have been trapped in the flames!
"Your Highness, think twice!"

Seeing Beichen Qi rushing into the sea of ​​fire regardless of everything, Li Xiang'er hugged him without hesitation.

"You let go!"

Saving lives is like putting out a fire, Beichen Qi was extremely anxious.

"I will never let go even if I die! I cannot watch Your Highness die!"

Li Xianger swore solemnly.

"Li Xiang'er, don't think that just because you are the Crown Princess now, I can't do anything to you. Believe it or not, I will divorce you immediately!"

Beichen Qi tried to shake Li Xiang'er off, but he didn't expect that Li Xiang'er, who was usually weak, could be so strong.

"Today, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really divorces me and wants my life, I will never let go! As the Crown Princess, I am not only doing this for myself, but also for the people of the world!"

Li Xiang'er tried her best to persuade Beichen Qi.

"Your Highness, please wait a little longer. The fire will be smaller in a while. If Your Highness insists on going in, I will never stop you."

"A while? Liuli can't wait a while!"

"If Miss Jiang is really in there - even if I let Your Highness in now, it will be useless! It will only save one more life! Miss Jiang survived a disaster before, so she will surely have good fortune in the future! Maybe, maybe she has already escaped?"

Although Li Xianger herself felt that the possibility of this was very small.

Loyalty is offensive!
Although what Li Xianger said was unpleasant to hear, it was also true.

After hearing what Li Xianger said, the impulsive Beichen Qi was angry and worried, but he finally calmed down.

Li Xianger was right. Jiang Liuli was such a smart girl, she would never sit there and wait for death!

He believed that Liuli could protect herself.

More and more palace maids and eunuchs came, and a large crowd of people surrounded the cold palace like dumplings.

There is strength in numbers. In just a cup of tea, the raging fire was put out.

Such a huge palace was reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye!
"Liu Li!"

Beichen Qi walked numbly towards the center of the ashes, as if he had lost his soul.

The palace was burned down like this, let alone the people?

How he hoped for a miracle to happen!

"Your Highness! Miss Jiang has been killed!"

The guards were the first to find the two bodies burned to ashes in the sea of ​​fire. Who else could the two people covered in black charcoal be but Miss Jiang and her servant?

Beichen Qi stared at the two charcoal-like corpses and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

He thought God had mercy on him and gave him a chance.

But who could have thought that this was a joke God played on him?

If he hadn't sent Liuli to the cold palace, the bad guys wouldn't have had the opportunity to take advantage of her.

If he stayed by Liuli's side every step of the way, he could rescue her from the fire in the first place.

So, blame him!

"Call the imperial physician! Your Highness, the dead cannot be resurrected! Please accept my condolences!"

Li Xiang'er stretched out her hand to support the staggering Beichen Qi, but he dodged her with disgust.

"Stop pretending to be nice here! It was you who killed Liuli! It was you, right?"

Just now, it was she who stopped me from saving Liuli!
"Your Highness, if I really wanted Miss Jiang to die, I would not have waited until today! If I had not acted in time at the execution ground that day, Miss Jiang would have died long ago!"

Li Xiang'er dared to take responsibility for her actions. If it was something she did, she would never deny it. However, if it was not something she did, she would never take the blame!
She would never do such despicable things as murder and arson.

When dealing with Jiang Liuli, she just wanted to win fairly and truly become Beichen Qi's beloved.

Qianqing Palace

Jiang Liuli opened her eyes dazedly, and what she saw was a brilliant yellow.

She didn't know what happened, she just felt a stinging pain in her hand.

When I looked down, I saw a large burnt area on the back of my hand, a bloody mess.

"Qiao Hui!"

"Miss Jiang is awake!"

Hearing the sound, a palace maid walked in from behind the screen.

"Where's Qiaohui? Where is Qiaohui?"

The palace maid knew nothing about anything and just signaled Liuli to be patient.

"Where is this? Where is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Liuli felt like she was in a dream and had no idea what was happening.

Just when Liuli was anxious to get up, a bright yellow figure appeared in front of her.

"emperor?"

"Doctor Hua said that you saved my life! Now, I have also saved your life, so we are even!"

After resting for so many days, the emperor finally recovered most of his strength.

"The maid next to you is more seriously injured than you and hasn't woken up yet."

After answering Jiang Liuli's questions, the emperor's gaze finally fell on Jiang Liuli's bulging belly.

"I ask you, is this child the prince's?"

Even though he was bedridden, how could the emperor not know about the big and small things happening in the palace?

Jiang Liuli pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.

If someone else asked her this question, she could just ignore it and not take it seriously at all. There was no need to answer it.

However, the person who is asking this question now is not someone else, but the emperor!
"I just want to hear the truth!"

Even though he was nearly sixty years old, and even though the emperor was in poor spirits after having just recovered from a serious illness, it did not affect the majesty he exuded.

"I dare not lie to your Highness. She is definitely your Highness's flesh and blood!"

Jiang Liuli thought about it seriously. Firstly, she couldn't bear the charge of deceiving the emperor. Secondly, if the child was not the Crown Prince's, could the master and servant walk out of the palace alive?
Rather than shooting yourself in the foot, it is better to tell the truth.

"If you dare to tell a lie, I will never forgive you!"

The emperor raised his thick eyebrows and his eyes were as sharp as torches.

As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire.

It had been some time since Jiang Liuli left Prince Qi's Mansion, and when she came back, she was pregnant.

This makes people suspicious.

But how much he hoped that the child in Jiang Liuli's belly was Beichen Qi's.

If he could see a child like Beichen Qi in his lifetime, he would die with his eyes closed!
However, the royal bloodline is so precious, how can it be confused?

"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, even if I tell you it's true, Your Majesty won't believe it."

Liuli was helpless.

When false is true, true is false; it all depends on one's heart!

The royal bloodline is weak, and the emperor is now in his twilight years. She bets that the emperor would never kill him no matter what!
"Okay, I'll trust you this time! You should stay here to protect the baby until it's born!"
