Chapter 547 The Lord Almost Never Sees Me...

After working so hard for most of the night, Meng Yan was really exhausted.

She went to the side hall to tidy her appearance, washed her face hastily with water, and was about to go to the main hall to meet the emperor.

During this period, Eunuch Huang came to the emperor's ear to pass a message, saying: "The palace lady said that Princess Yinwu's condition is not very good. Except for the maids around her, no one else is allowed to approach. She said she was afraid of being burned."

The emperor's expression moved.

She had just experienced a near-death escape, and she was afraid that she would not be able to trust anyone for a while.It is also human nature to be afraid.

The emperor understood this as soon as he heard it, and there was probably something inside.

Meng Yan came to the hall, her face was washed clean, but her body was still in a mess, and she hissed, "Please forgive me for the sin of my wife's sloppy appearance and not being able to clean her face."

The emperor waved his hand and asked the palace servants to give him a seat, and said: "It's a must, I won't blame you. Princess, sit down."

Meng Yan sat down slowly, and heard the emperor say again: "King Wu of Yin entered the palace overnight, and he must arrive soon."

Meng Yan was stunned.

Didn't he just leave, why did he come out and enter the palace overnight?
Afterwards, the palace servants offered hot tea, and Meng Yan took two sips from the teacup.

The emperor saw that there were faint red marks from burns on the back of her hand, and said again: "I think it's better to call an imperial doctor to take a look."

Meng Yan covered her sleeves and said: "Thank you, the emperor, for your kindness, but the situation of the queen mother is much more serious than that of the minister's wife. The imperial doctors are doing their best to treat the queen mother. How can they spare their energy to see the little lady Gu Chen at this time?" Injury, the minister's wife will apply some medicine by herself later."

Not long after, Yin Heng entered the hall under the guidance of the palace servants, and greeted the emperor first.

Then when he looked sideways at Meng Yan, he was also obviously taken aback, and said, "How did you do this?"

He still doesn't know how she made it like this...

Seeing him stunned for a moment, Meng Yan immediately started to play, her eye circles turned red, and she said with tears in her eyes, "My lord almost won't be able to see me tonight..."

Yin Heng's brows trembled faintly, his aggrieved appearance suddenly made him feel that he was similar to those two little things at home who couldn't get milk...

Subconsciously, Meng Yan wanted to take out a square handkerchief from her bosom, pretending to wipe away her tears, but she took it out twice and remembered that there was no handkerchief in her bosom, so she pinched her sleeve and wiped the corners of her eyes twice, and groaned twice.

Yin Heng: "..."

Just as he was about to remind him, Meng Yan looked at the black and black sleeves by himself, and reacted first, and said, "Oh, did I rub it again?"

Yin Heng looked at the corners of her smoky eyes, pursed his lips, and nodded solemnly: "Well, it's rubbish."

With that movement of pursing his lips, the corners of his lips would not rise, but he retracted them solemnly.This made Meng Yan inexplicably feel that he wanted to laugh, but he just held back.

The emperor sighed aloud: "Fortunately, Princess Yin Wu is out of danger. Otherwise, if King Yin Wu seeks someone from me, what will I pay King Wu of Yin for?"

Yin Heng said: "Your Majesty, what is going on?"

The emperor said: "I am also very confused. Princess Yin Wu escaped from the fire by luck, so it is better for the princess to tell the story."

The source of the fire started in the courtyard where Meng Yan lived, which is very strange.But what is the situation, only the party knows best.

So Meng Yan said in a hoarse voice: "Tonight, my wife will go to the Buddhist hall to accompany the Empress Dowager to pay respects to the Buddha. When she came back, there was nothing abnormal in the courtyard. But after opening the door of the bedroom, I smelled a pungent smell. My wife The maid went to light the lamp to check, but unexpectedly, as soon as the lamp was lit, a big fire burst into flames."

The emperor's face was secretive.

Meng Yan continued: "Afterwards, the ministers and maids couldn't open the door, and no one answered when they shouted for help. In the end, it took a lot of hard work to open the window and escape. After that, I didn't know anything. It's..."

As soon as the words fell, the emperor was furious, slapped the table, and shouted: "You bastard, you are so audacious!"

With this angry shout, all the courtiers in the palace knelt down tremblingly.

Huang Gonggong said: "The emperor calms down, the emperor calms down."

The emperor ordered: "Come here, go and send me all the palace servants who serve Princess Yin Wu inside and outside the Queen Mother's Palace, and don't miss any of them!"

Eunuch Huang pointed to an eunuch, and the eunuch hurriedly went down to do it.

Many places in the Empress Dowager's Palace were burnt down. The situation of the Empress Dowager is unknown now, and the chaos in the palace has not been relieved.

When the eunuch came to announce people under the emperor's order, no one could make the decision for a while.As long as there are palace people who have anything to do with serving Princess Yin Wu, they will all be taken away.

After being brought to the hall, a total of ten people knelt on the ground timidly.

The emperor asked coldly: "Why is there a fire in Princess Yin Wu's bedroom?"

The palace man trembled and answered not knowing.

The emperor's face became even more angry: "Let me ask again, why did Princess Yinwu's maid go to light the lamp, why did the fire start at one o'clock? Why was Princess Yinwu locked in the room and unable to get out, and no one answered her cry for help?"

The palace man lowered his head, his voice full of panic, and said: "The emperor is aware that the servants really don't know why the princess burned the bedroom... The princess usually doesn't like the servants serving in the inner courtyard, she should be guarding outside. Therefore, when the fire broke out, the servants didn't notice it, nor did they hear it..."

Meng Yan didn't mention that someone had crucified the doors and windows, otherwise, in the eyes of the emperor, she was a weak woman, even if she was paired with a maid, it would be difficult for her to break through the windows and escape.

It's just that if she didn't mention it, all the palace people denied it.

Meng Yan said: "The distance between the inner and outer courtyards is only five or six zhang. Can't you hear me?"

"Back, back to the princess, the servants really didn't hear..."

It is too far-fetched to insist that I did not hear it.

A discerning person will know it when he sees it.The emperor looked at Yin Heng and asked, "What does King Yin Wu think should be done?"

Yin Heng said: "Let the emperor make the decision."

The emperor said coldly: "Neglect of duty and slackness have caused such serious consequences, but you still don't reflect on yourself, use forceful words, and shirk responsibility. It is an unforgivable crime! Someone, drag this group of dog slaves down, and execute them immediately!"

After finishing speaking, a group of guards came into the palace and escorted the palace servants down one by one.

The palace people looked terrified and begged for mercy loudly.Finally, the call disappeared outside the palace gate.

Meng Yan looked timid and scared, shivering.

Yin Heng patted her on the shoulder to express comfort.

Although I don't know exactly which one sprinkled phosphorous powder in her bedroom, but after the fire broke out, not only no one came to rescue, but nailed the doors and windows to death, this alone is not wronged to them.

The emperor chose to execute them, which meant that the matter came to an end.

Otherwise, Meng Yan, a concubine, can still find out the queen mother and convict her?

The queen mother is still lying down, her life and death are unknown, she is not a bad debt.

She was a victim tonight, and the Queen Mother could not harm her, but was spread to other places by the fire.
