Chapter 681 The Ninth Villain 34

That way she won't set herself on fire!

Xia Hou couldn't help but think of his mother and concubine dying in such pain, which made him feel a dull pain in his chest, and made him feel stuffy and panicked.

"My lord..." Chengfeng outside couldn't help calling tentatively when he heard that there was no movement inside for a long time.

"...Go and find out, what is the reason for the unexplained fire in the cold palace?" Xia Houshen ordered, but his voice was very hoarse.

"...Okay, then this subordinate will leave!" Chengfeng also sensed that something was wrong with Xia Houshen, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he agreed and left.

Hearing the sound of Chengfeng's footsteps going away, Xia Houshen stared at the breakfast on the table in a trance, but lost his appetite, he walked slowly to the side of the bed, and sat down on it.

Was it because she couldn't survive that she set fire to herself?Or did someone kill her?

She is such a concubine who has been thrown into the cold palace, and Xia Houjin doesn't love her. Logically speaking, no one should harm her, because she has no threat at all, so it is very likely that she set herself on fire up.

Although he knew that the answer was likely to be this, Xia Houshen found himself still wanting to know if someone harmed her? !

Closing her eyes, Xia Houshen felt a little out of breath. Was it because he ruthlessly refused his request to take her out of the cold palace, so she chose to end her life in this way?

For some reason, scenes of being with her suddenly appeared in his mind.

They didn't know each other for a long time, but he also saw that she was a lively, cheerful, and even interesting woman, occasionally a little fragile, unruly, and bold.

The Lenggong, a place that eats people, finally drove her to death.

Xia Houshen sat stiffly in the room and waited for Chengfeng to come back to report. His hands and feet were almost numb, only his heart hurt.

Except for the time when his concubine was burned to death, this was the first time he felt such a feeling about the death of a woman other than her. place, let it out fiercely.

Xiahou beat the bed with his deep hands unconsciously, making a "bang" sound, which frightened Chengfeng, who came back from inquiring about the news outside the door, thinking that something happened to him, so he didn't care so much, broke in, and asked nervously Said, "Master, what's the matter?"

As soon as he entered, he found that the bed in the dormitory had collapsed and turned into a mess, and Xia Houshen's expression seemed to be very bad, and there was pain in his black eyes.

This made Chengfeng stunned, and couldn't help thinking to himself, could it be that the cold palace caught fire, and reminded the master of the tragic death of his mother and concubine?

"...It's all right." Xia Hou asked in a deep voice, "What did you find?"

Hearing the rumors, Cheng Feng hurriedly reported, "My subordinates went to the palace to inquire, and heard people say that there were traces of fighting in the cold palace, Yao Liangdi was burnt beyond recognition, and has been taken back by Yao Jinkang, but The strange thing is..." He paused after speaking.

"Hurry up!" Xiahou shouted deeply.

"In the bedroom where you live in the palace, there are quite a few antique calligraphy and paintings missing. A palace lady disappeared inexplicably. When the incident happened, I heard from other palace ladies that the palace lady even sent dinner to Empress Liang. , Later, the cold palace inexplicably caught fire, and the maid disappeared."

Chengfeng didn't dare to hide anything, so he said everything.
