When we returned to the East Palace, it was already evening.Candles are being lit in the palace, and the green smoke is scattered into the spring breeze, bringing a burning breath.

After seeing Yueniang, Xiaofeng's mood improved a lot.As soon as I entered the yard, I was hungry.

After entering the hall, I sat down, and I went to pour tea for her, and a piece of mandarin duck and white jade pendant was placed on the table, as if it was done on purpose.

Gu Jian!

I froze for a moment, then stretched out my hand to hold it and hid it in my sleeve.

Xiaofeng went into the inner room to change clothes, but A'Du, who followed in, didn't know if he saw it or not.

After bringing tea and going in, Xiao Feng had already changed her clothes, and was just curling up on a bed and messing with the white cat.She named it "Xiaoxue", and the half-grown cat was just when it was mischievous, running around and grabbing the accessories around Xiaofeng's waist, like a ball of white pompom jumping up and down without stopping.

I looked at it for a while, and then went out slowly.After walking a long distance, I could still hear Xiaofeng's laughter teasing the cat.Hearing the joy, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, it's time to end it again, it seems that the peaceful days are always difficult to last for too long.

Within a few days, the Empress Dowager fell ill.

Xiaofeng was pregnant, and the baby was getting bigger and bigger day by day in her womb, and it was difficult for her to move, so the sickness naturally couldn't help her.But the Empress Dowager was very happy when she saw Xiaofeng, but she also felt that she was going back and forth, so she left her to live in the palace.

It was like this for several days.

On this day, I sat quietly in Xiaofeng's bedroom for a long time.The candles were dimly lit, and occasionally some lanterns flickered on and off, and no one cut them.Her room had been emptied, and there was almost nothing left, but Xiaofeng's aura still lingered for a long time, which made her feel calm.

I sat until late at night, and then I got up and moved my muscles and bones, and pushed down those candlesticks one by one, watching the candle oil snake like snakes crawling all over the palace, and then the flames sprang up and quickly joined together.

Then I took out the Ming Dy, raised my wrist and shot it.

The fire was already very strong, and the whole hall was glowing red with the light of the fire, but I was not in a hurry and walked out slowly.

Gu Jian is a cautious person, would he show up so easily with just a melody?

But I am sure he will come, because, like me, he has never been able to afford to lose since Xiliang.

As I expected, the entire Eastern Palace was in chaos. The palace where Xiaofeng usually slept peacefully was ablaze with smoke billowing into the sky. Open flames rushed out of the house. The awakened palace people ran around telling each other. Few people rushed to fight the fire.I waited for a short time, and saw a flash of white clothes, and a figure rushed into the hall against the flames.

Gu Jian!

Just for a moment, the shadow came out again, but with a sway of his figure, countless steel arrows went straight to him.There was the sound of tinkling steel arrows being swept to the ground in the hall, accompanied by the beeping beeping boom of the burning temple, like a good show that started with full drums and drums.

Arrows were shot one after another densely. It is said that two fists are no match for four hands. No matter how good Gu Jian's martial arts are, he will surely be unable to escape under the siege of random arrows.

He was forced into the palace, and the arrow stopped.

The temple began to collapse in the fire.Gu Jian's voice came from afar.He said: "Li Chengyin, you don't keep your word!"

I retorted and said coldly: "Did you just find out today? Since you told her that I am a hard-hearted person, you should know that I will neither let her go, nor let you go!"

The flames in the hall were even brighter, several pillars fell down, and a corner of the hall collapsed. It was unknown where Gu Jian was hiding, and his voice could no longer be heard.

As long as everything is burned out, the matter will be considered.

Xiaofeng was not in the Eastern Palace, so she was probably soundly asleep at this time.At dawn tomorrow, she will only know that the East Palace caught fire and accidentally burned down her small courtyard. Fortunately, the palace staff put out the rescue in time, and all her belongings and furnishings were there. Even the flowers and plants in the corridor were rescued in time, but the palace was seriously damaged. After three to five months of repair, it will be back to normal, and everything will be as if nothing happened.

As for Gu Jian, she can only feel that this person has never appeared in her life since she did not know when. He came without a trace and naturally disappeared without a trace. It is like an illusion. This ending is very suitable for Gu Jian's person set up.

She would never guess that when Gu Jian died, he was in her palace with no bones left.

I stared patiently at the ever-collapsing temple.

Unexpectedly, a person suddenly rushed from the back wall, heading straight for the burning temple.As soon as the man climbed onto the wall, before he could stand still, countless random arrows shot at him.The man quickly pulled out the saber from his waist, quickly chopped off a few arrows with sharp eyes, and then fell towards the wall.

A'Du!

I was startled, and while hesitating, another wave of dense arrows shot out.

Holding the golden wrong knife, A'Du drew a long string of golden sparks on the wall, borrowed this strength, and jumped onto the green brick floor.A few arrows scratched her face, and the blood oozes out quickly, and the flames reddened her face, quite terrifying.

I was worried that Xiaofeng would come with her, so I hurriedly stopped Lin Shiyu, and when A'Du fell to the ground, I didn't even bother to wipe off the blood, and rushed straight into the burning hall without hesitation.

"A'Du!" I yelled, "Dangerous!"

She just paused for a while, without turning her head, she took three steps in parallel, and headed towards the hall.

Pei Zhao stood by my side and couldn't help whispering: "She came...to save Gu Jian?"

Could it be what Xiao Feng meant?

My heart shivered, and I gritted my teeth and said, "As long as Xiaofeng doesn't come, whoever it is, I will kill you!"

Suddenly flashed in my mind the appearance of A'Du holding the golden wrong knife after arguing with Xiaofeng countless times in the past.I know that A'Du is He Shi's younger sister.She accompanied Xiaofeng, and after seeing 20 clansmen die in the encirclement of the Yue clan and the Central Plains, she still stayed with Xiaofeng in the Central Plains for three years without saying a word.Xiao Feng has forgotten, where is A'Du?

As an emperor and a king, the life and death of insignificant people are never on his mind.

But for some reason, I suddenly remembered Xiaofeng's love for A'Du.

If Xiaofeng knew that A'Du was dead...

My heart trembled suddenly, and I had already rushed off the wall.Pei Zhao followed behind, exclaiming "Your Highness" repeatedly.

I stopped walking again, as if pouring cold water on my head when my head was hot.Standing on the stone steps, I watched another pillar fall in the firelight. The hot blood just faded away, and for a moment, I didn't know where I should go.

If A'Du died, would she hate me?

When I was dazed, in the raging fire, I saw a corner of A'Du's dress flying in the flames.

Without even thinking about it, I blurted out: "Pei Zhao! Help!"

Before the Habayashi army around the hall could react, Pei Zhao had already rushed in.He wanted to bring A'Du out, but A'Du held onto Gu Jian tightly and wouldn't let go. Finally, Pei Zhao grabbed Gu Jian and brought him out, and A'Du ran to follow him.

As soon as they rushed out, the fire was so intense that the entire hall collapsed in an instant.

A'Du's clothes were on fire, and the smoke still lingered at this moment, presumably he had suffered a lot of injuries.The hair on the temples on his forehead was all burnt away, his face was black and red, and he was quite embarrassed.She fell on the ground panting, but her eyes were fixed on Gu Jian.There were several arrow wounds on his body, and all his white clothes were dyed red, but there were no traces of fire.But he must have choked on a lot of smoke after staying in the fire for so long.At this moment, being placed on the ground by Pei Zhao, his chest didn't rise or fall at all.

A'Du rushed over and touched Gu Jian's body. She seemed to be very worried about him, and bent down to listen to Gu Jian's heartbeat over and over again, for fear of hearing it wrong.It took a long time to sit aside, and became silent again.

Pei Zhao has sent someone to put out the fire.

I realized that Gu Jian was probably still alive, and suddenly felt that the farce tonight was very boring. My heart has been numb since I decided to save people, and I don't know how to feel.

The light of the fire gradually weakened, and the sky was about to brighten. Regardless of what happened to Gu Jian A'Du, I left this mess and went straight into the palace.

I just want to see Xiaofeng immediately.
