Chapter 270
Xiao Changzi took a shortcut all the way, so he walked faster than Xiao Xuanyi and the others, so he was able to meet the empress earlier.

"My lady..."

"Xiao Changzi is back, empress, the emperor must be back!" The queen's personal maid said in surprise.

The emperor did come back, but as soon as he came back, he walked directly to Changning Palace.So far, all the plans are still within their expectations, and they only hope that nothing will go wrong in the future.

"It's not good! It's not good! The Changning Palace is flooded... hurry up and put out the fire!" Seeing that the Changning Palace was ahead, the two suddenly heard the eunuchs and maids shouting.He Lianfeng looked up, and sure enough, he saw that the Changning Palace was in flames, and it didn't look like it could burn so big in just a short while.

"It seems that he can't bear it anymore!" Although Changning Palace is the second prince's palace, the emperor didn't have a trace of anxiety on his face.

When they arrived at Changning Palace, the fire here was out of control.Xiao Xuanyi glanced around, and asked coldly, "Where is the Second Highness?"

"Back... back to the emperor, Your Highness... Your Highness is still in the palace..." The little eunuch didn't know when the emperor came.Didn't you hear that the emperor is ill?Even the second prince was ill and didn't come to visit.

"Then why are you still standing here? Why don't you hurry up and find someone to put out the fire!" Even though he knew that there was no second prince inside, the ferocious fire still made Xiao Xuanyi furious.He thought he was worthy of this younger brother, but the other party insisted on killing him.

Overnight, watching the sky gradually reveal a touch of whiteness, everyone realized that it was dawn.The fire burned for a whole night. Although it had been extinguished, what was left was only some coke and broken walls.

Xiao Xuanyi and He Lianfeng stood outside the fire all night, seeing that the fire was extinguished, but the second prince's body was gone.All the palace people knelt down on the ground, they dared not face the king's eyes.Looking at the palace servants kneeling on the ground, Xiao Xuanyi left Changning Palace without saying anything.

Although the palace was very safe, some news spread quickly.The news of Changning Palace's flooding was known to those ministers that night.And early this morning, they even got the news that the emperor had recovered from his illness and appeared in Changning Palace last night.

Xiao Xuanyun was the first person to enter the palace to meet Xiao Xuanyi. He tried his best to adjust his expression so that his face looked full of sadness.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Heng seeks an audience."

The emperor looked at Helian Feng below, and said in a deep voice, "Let him in!"

Although he hadn't seen Xiao Xuanyun for a month or two, he had already engraved the appearance of this younger brother in his mind.Thinking of what kind of expression was hidden under the other party's sad expression, Xiao Xuanyi felt that he was too kind back then.

"Did Brother Huang rush back last night?"

"Yes. I heard that the second prince was not feeling well, so I rushed back overnight, but I didn't expect such an accident to happen."

Xiao Xuanyun was silent for a moment, he lowered his head so that his expression could not be seen clearly: "My brother heard that the Changning Palace was flooded, the second prince..."

Xiao Xuanyi didn't speak, but he supported his head with his hands with a tired face. Although the expression was not obvious, the grief was well conveyed to Xiao Xuanyun.But this did not make Xiao Xuanyun sympathize with him, instead his heart was ecstatic.For the first time in his life, he saw the emperor's brother showing such an expression, what a joy!
