Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 425 Warehouse on fire

The fire was indeed set by Xiao Feng. He wanted to take the opportunity to sneak into the dormitory, but found that the dormitory was surrounded by people and had no chance to enter.

He knew that Jiaoyang wouldn't be able to buy much time in front, so he randomly found a room and set a fire. However, he didn't expect that the fire he set at random was actually placed in the right place.

In this room, Concubine Chen had just dismissed the scorching sun and was about to return to the palace to let Situ Lin finish writing the edict. However, a young eunuch stumbled over and shouted in a panic: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is not good. She is not good. She is in trouble." Already...."

There was a bang in Chen Bin's head, and the next moment she asked nervously: "Where is the leak, tell me quickly!"

The little eunuch calmed down his panicked breath and stammered: "Your Majesty, this is the warehouse!"

"How could a good person get away with things?" Chen Bin asked with an ugly face. There were rewards in the warehouse.

"The little one didn't know it, but it suddenly started burning. A few days ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a batch of materials to make winter clothes, and they were all placed in the warehouse. The fire was so big that it was impossible to put it out for a while. Madam , hurry up and find someone outside to put out the fire!"

"No... it's useless, it's just on fire. Why are you making such a fuss? Hurry up and call everyone in the palace to put out the fire first!" Concubine Chen cursed angrily when she heard this and hurriedly led her away. Then she headed towards the warehouse. It didn't matter if the things in the warehouse were burned, but the dragon robe she prepared for Xu'er was still in the warehouse. If it was burned, how would she ascend the throne tomorrow?

Chen Bin had no choice but to lead people to the warehouse herself. When she arrived, the fire was spreading from inside to outside the house.

The palace people were running around, carrying buckets of water back and forth. Fortunately, the palace had a lot of water because of the dry weather.

However, the fire was so powerful that it could not be extinguished for a while. In order not to attract people's attention, Chen Concubine did not dare to call people outside the palace, so she had to keep urging the palace people in her palace to put out the fire quickly.

Thinking of the dragon robe, she felt anxious. She grabbed a palace man and said, "You...go and take out the rosewood box from the warehouse. The contents inside are very important to me."

The palace man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, please spare me. If there is such a big fire, wouldn't I be looking for death if I go in?"

How could Chen Bin care so much? She had embroidered the dragon robe stitch by stitch. She had been waiting for so long just for tomorrow. If there was no dragon robe tomorrow, Xu'er would not be able to ascend the throne immediately even if there was an edict. Waiting for Situ Jin After returning to the capital, it was too late.

She kicked the little eunuch on the ground with a ferocious face: "You don't listen to my orders now, do you? Believe it or not, I will kill you now. Go in quickly and help me take out the box."

When the little eunuch heard that he was about to die, he stood up tremblingly, picked up the bucket nearby and poured water on himself. He mustered up the courage to rush towards the warehouse surrounded by fire. However, as soon as he ran to the door, he was hit by the scorching heat inside. The heat wave forced him to retreat, and he was about to retreat.

But I heard Concubine Chen's vicious voice coming from behind: "If you can't take it out, I will kill you now!"

The palace man gritted his teeth and rushed in again. However, before he could reach the door this time, he was knocked to the ground by a beam on the roof. His painful wailing did not win the sympathy of the people around him. Instead, he heard Chen Bin's words to He turned to another eunuch and said, "You go ahead with this useless thing!"

When the little eunuch saw that the man in front of him had been swallowed up by the fire, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground tremblingly and did not dare to raise his head.

When the palace servants next to them saw Chen Concubine looking at them, they were all so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy loudly: "Please spare the slaves!"

Seeing that everyone in the palace did not dare to move forward, Concubine Chen was so angry that she wanted to rush in by herself, but she was tightly held back by Nanny Chen beside her: "Mother, no matter what important things are inside, you are here now." You can’t go in, you have to calm down.”

Chen Bin gritted her teeth and said in a low voice: "The dragon robe is inside, but if it is burned now, tomorrow's affairs will be difficult to achieve. How can you keep me calm?"

Grandma Chen frowned and said: "I know this, but my lady, with such a big fire, even if you go in, the thing will have been burnt to ashes. If something happens to you, let alone tomorrow, whatever you plan will be done." No."

Grandma Chen's words touched Chen Pin's heart, and she finally calmed down: "But if that thing is gone, what will we do tomorrow?"

Nanny Chen leaned close to her ear and whispered: "As long as there is an edict, it doesn't matter if there is no dragon robe. Can't the emperor still wear the dragon robe?"

A smile appeared on Chen Bin's face and she hurriedly ordered everyone: "Quick, put out the fire!"

While they were hurriedly extinguishing the fire, Xiao Feng over there had already disguised himself and sneaked into the dormitory. Seeing that the palace guards who were guarding still hadn't left, he pretended to be panicked and ran towards the inside, shouting loudly as he ran: "What are you doing here? The warehouse is on fire. The queen ordered everyone to put out the fire."

The guarding eunuch hesitated for a while, then pointed at the remaining people and said, "Follow me to put out the fire. You two will guard this place."

Xiao Feng rolled his eyes: "Damn it, now that the fire is almost burning to the yard next door, what is more important than extinguishing the fire? Do we have to watch the entire Yilan Palace burn down?"

When the two young eunuchs guarding the door heard this, they hesitated for a while, and then heard Xiao Feng say: "If I delay putting out the fire, I will blame you, can you afford it?"

The two looked at each other and then followed Xiao Feng out. Seeing that Xiao Feng did not follow them, a young eunuch stopped and looked at Xiao Feng suspiciously and said, "Why don't you come with us?"

Xiao Feng hid himself in the darkness and said in a deep voice: "I have to call the others. The fire is too strong and the few of us alone are not enough."

The two young eunuchs did not doubt that he was there and ran towards the warehouse.

Seeing that everyone had left, Xiao Feng quickly entered the dormitory. He opened the door and walked straight to Situ Lin. Seeing his eyes dull, Xiao Feng called twice but he didn't respond at all. There was something written on the desk that had not yet been written. After completing the edict, Xiao Feng's eyes darkened when he saw the contents.

He took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from his arms, which Su Ying had given to him before leaving for Xiangguo Temple. He poured out a pill and put it into Situ Lin's mouth. Seeing that Situ Lin was stunned and did not swallow it, He gently pressed his throat a few times with his hand, and Situ Lin quickly swallowed the pill.

After about half a cup of tea, Situ Lin's dull eyes finally showed some fluctuations, and there was confusion in his eyes: "I...why am I here? Who are you?"
