Raiders of the Empress: My Empress is Too Small

Chapter 897

After shouting a few words, Xuelian also came in a panic, and ran around looking for someone to put out the fire. "Come quickly, Jinxiu Palace is flooded, come and put out the fire and rescue people, Concubine Zhuang is still inside."

The commotion was not small, people around began to gather, fetching water, running to tell each other, and the Splendid Palace suddenly became lively.

Fu Rong grabbed the firefighters and said, "Hurry up, the empress is still inside."

Xue Lian yelled over and over again in front of the burning palace gate, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty." She began to cry as she shouted.When the fire was extinguished, the palace was already in ruins. The fire was discovered early and did not completely burn down the Splendid Palace.

At the end of the night, Concubine Zhuang was sent to the ruined temple outside the city in a carriage driven by Chang Feng. Zhou Gu's clothes were disheveled, his hair was hanging down, and he was baking two steamed buns in front of the fire, doing it stupidly.

Chang Feng came in and saw him in such a state of embarrassment, he was surprised, "Zhou Gu hasn't seen him for a few days, how come he is so sloppy, he is almost a beggar, but his clothes are not as ragged as a beggar's.

"Didn't you let me wait for Xiu'er here? I'm afraid I'll miss her if I leave." Zhou Gu felt a little embarrassed, put the steamed buns down, and tidied up his clothes.

"Where did you get this steamed bun?" Chang Feng was not polite, bent down to pick up his hot steamed bun and gnawed it, throwing the stick aside.

Zhou Gu looked at it, feeling unwilling, but he didn't dare to say anything, this is his dinner tonight!
"Guard Changfeng, you came to look for me but what happened to Xiu'er?"

Changfeng devoured the steamed buns and called out, "Come in."

Zhou Gu turned his head strangely, and saw a familiar figure, "Xiu'er?"

Rushing over to hug Zhuang Xiu'er, "Xiu'er, you, are you out?"

Zhuang Xiuer nodded and choked up, "Zhou Gu."

"Yes, I'm the one who came out. We have a big world, and no one restrains us."

"What's going on here? Changfeng's guards said that it might take many years. I've already made plans to live here. I asked a nearby farmhouse and almost rented a grass hut and a place. I plan to wait all year round."

Zhuang Xiu'er wiped her tears, "Thanks to your majesty and the empress's magnanimity, the empress interceded for us and concealed the truth. The former Concubine Zhuang died in the Jinxiu Palace with the fire, and now standing in front of you is your wife Zhuang Xiu'er. "

"Okay, okay." Zhou Gu nodded repeatedly.

Holding Zhuang Xiuer's hand, he knelt down and said, "Guard Changfeng, thank you for your help. Without you, our husband and wife would not be able to have a happy reunion." The two kowtowed to him.

Chang Feng immediately dodged, "Don't kowtow to me, I just follow orders."

The two kowtowed three times to the outside of the door, "Thank you Your Majesty and the Empress for your kindness."

Seeing that they were all right and the task was completed, Chang Feng said, "Okay, I should go back, it's almost dawn. There is a carriage under the tree at the door, and you can start as soon as it dawns. Go anywhere, away from the emperor. City, away from right and wrong, from now on, there will be no Zhou Gu and Zhuang Xiu'er in the world."

When Changfeng stepped out of the ruined temple, the sky opened slightly, and a ray of light emerged from the clouds.Changfeng glanced at it, turned around and left with big strides
The two talked for a while in the ruined temple, holding hands and expressing their heartfelt feelings. After dawn, Zhou Gu took Zhuang Xiu'er into the carriage.
The Jinxiu Palace was noisy all night, and the nearby palaces didn't sleep well, but Mingyou had no dreams all night.When I got up in the morning, it was already high in the sun.
