If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

Chapter 292: Yanchun Pavilion Flood

"Did you know that there was a fire in Yanchun Pavilion last night?"

"The fire had been burning for quite some time, and the sky was even red. How could you not know about it?"

"That's right, that's right."

"I heard that someone was burned to death,"

"Burned someone to death?"

"Um,"

"Who is it? Who is so unlucky?"

"It was Concubine Xia who was disfigured by Concubine Hua. Because she lost a tooth and was unsightly, she could not sleep with the Empress, so she was moved to Yanchun Pavilion by the Empress."

A slight voice sounded quietly. If there were not so few people in the side hall and it was unusually quiet, Ling Rong would probably not be able to hear what those young maids and maids were whispering.

Last night, the Seventh Prince was naughty and refused to fall asleep. It took a long time for him to finally calm down. Ling Rong was also very sleepy, so she came to the Yikun Palace early, found a place in the side hall, and prepared to take a nap with her arms as a pillow.

It was not surprising to hear their discussions. After all, the fire yesterday was indeed very big. Anyone with eyes witnessed the fire. Even people without eyes could definitely hear the noisy noise of putting out the fire.

"Last night, there was a fire in Yanchun Pavilion, killing Concubine Xia and her personal maid. I believe everyone knows about this." Concubine Hua said slowly. It was obvious that the fire was caused intentionally, and she really wanted to find out who did it and make a fool of herself.

Some high-ranking concubines were concerned about their face and status and sat upright without any expression, but those concubines of low status who had nothing to do with them did not care and just looked around to see who was feeling guilty.

The instigator was Lingrong, so she certainly didn't feel guilty because Xiao Shu'er had already reported it to her when she was dressing up this morning.

The fire was not originally planned, but there was an accident. In order to prevent the palace from noticing Xia Changzai again, Xiao Shuer went all out and added kerosene to set the entire Yanchun Pavilion on fire. Xia Changzai and the other two were not harmed either, as they were hidden in a remote palace. After two days, the palace would release some palace maids who were over 25 years old, and he would take this opportunity to send Xia Changzai out with them.

"Was it an accident?" Seeing that no one spoke, a little official asked.

"Is Xia Changzai a fool?"

"no!"

"Is her personal maid a fool?"

"If someone is chosen to be a maid in the palace, then he can't be a fool!"

"If there's a fire, don't you know to run?"

"What if he's fast asleep?"

"........."

Although the discussion of the two low-ranking concubines was quiet, it still reached Ling Rong's ears, and even more so the ears of Concubine Hua.

"My Lady, is Concubine Xia really dead? If she is dead, it's really unfair. She was sent to Yanchun Pavilion before she was favored in the palace and never saw the emperor again. She was killed by a fire. How can we live?" Yun Guiren said with a worried look. She carefully observed Concubine Hua's expression, keenly aware of her intentions, and immediately took the initiative to stand up and give her a plausible reason.

"Mrs. Yun is right. The Imperial Concubine should seek justice for the innocent Concubine Xia who died in vain!" Several people echoed. They knew in their hearts that this was not really for seeking justice for Concubine Xia, but because in this deep palace, open and secret struggles and insidious and cunning things are common, but such cruel means of arson and murder are unheard of. Everyone knew that if they did not express their attitude quickly, they might be the next to suffer.

"I also think that the fire is suspicious, and I have asked Zhou Ninghai to investigate." Concubine Hua narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a firm tone, "I am not as soft-hearted as the queen, and I am indecisive. I prefer to be iron-blooded, iron-handed, and heartless. No matter who it is, as long as I find out that they are related to this case, I will punish them severely!"
