Since Lianxiu Palace flooded that day, Li Shishi was placed in the Jinxiu Garden in the harem together with other royal wives.

Such major accidents happened one after another in the palace, and it was at the time when Qiu Ju Hui came to congratulate Wan Chao, so this matter was naturally no small matter.

The news was blocked in time, and everyone who participated in the Qiu Ju Club was also blocked.

Although it is said on the surface that it is to protect their safety, in fact, they don't want anyone to make troubles.

During these three days, Li Shishi was so worried that she didn't think about eating or drinking.

That night.

The sky that has been dull for two days still has no meaning of clearing up.

Dark clouds enveloped the imperial city, making one feel inexplicably depressed.

In the evening, most of the guards stationed in Jinxiu Garden suddenly withdrew.

After dinner, Li Shishi finally couldn't bear the worries in her heart, and sneaked out of Jinxiu Garden when no one was prepared.

The whole palace is already lighting up and down.

Li Shishi avoided the patrolling guards and rushed towards the direction where the flames were soaring into the sky that day.

Squatting behind the flowers, she carefully stared at the officers and soldiers passing by her, planning to take advantage of them walking away so that she could continue on her way.

But before she could stand up, she suddenly felt her clothes being pulled.

I was shocked in my heart!
Li Shishi ignored the danger, picked up the stone on the ground and threw it behind her.

But the people behind seemed to have anticipated her actions.

Before she could slam back, someone grabbed her wrist!

Dead!
Li Shishi complained endlessly.

She didn't have time to react, the people behind her covered her mouth and dragged her back.

Li Shishi subconsciously reached out to attack, but she heard Liu Quan's voice: "Madam, it's me, I'm Liu Quan!"

Li Shishi was startled, her raised hand froze suddenly.

After taking Li Shishi all the way to the corner, Liu Quan let Li Shishi go.

"Offended, Mrs. Sister-in-law."

Li Shishi leaned against the wall, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Liu Quan, and asked, "What's going on?"

Liu Quan glanced left and right to make sure that no one else was passing by. He grabbed Li Shishi's wrist and was about to leave, saying as he walked, "Madam, it's too late to explain now, so follow me first."

Li Shishi knew that this was not a place to talk, and she also knew what Liu Quan was like, so she didn't say anything, and let Liu Quan take her away from this place.

After walking for about 10 minutes, the two arrived at a remote small yard.

Standing at the door, Liu Quan stretched out his hand to knock on the door. Not long after, the door opened quietly, leaving a gap for more than one person, and Liu Quan grabbed Li Shishi and entered the room.

After entering the courtyard, Li Shishi suddenly stopped in her tracks.

After seeing clearly the people standing in the courtyard, she didn't recover for a while.

"Miss, long time no see."

The man was dressed in a eunuch's palace uniform, and was standing in the courtyard with a palace lantern, smiling.

At this moment, Li Shishi felt like she was in a dream, the person in front of her really appeared beside her, even walking towards her.

"My lord?" Li Shishi was a little unsure, and murmured, before being pulled into his arms.

"Why are you here?" Li Shishi was extremely surprised, and only said this sentence after holding back for a long time.

It's just that Gongsun Qing didn't answer her words, but said softly: "It's not convenient to talk outside, let's go in and talk about it."

Gongsun Qing brought Li Shishi into the house.

Inside the house, Yu Xue was bandaging the Seventh Prince's wound, when she heard the noise outside, she stopped what she was doing and looked back.

Looking at each other, Li Shishi was taken aback for a moment, seeing that the person was sitting in the room well-behaved, the uneasy heart before was finally let go.

Breaking away from Gongsun Qing's hand, she took two quick steps to Yu Xue and held her hand up, looked up and down for a while and asked, "How is it, are you injured?"

"No." Yu Xue shook her head: "I'm fine, but the Seventh Prince suffered some minor injuries, and I'm changing his medicine."

Li Shishi frowned and asked worriedly: "What happened to that fire?"

Yu Xue was about to speak, but the Seventh Prince answered her first: "Someone did it on purpose."

Li Shishi saw the seventh prince who was sitting there when she heard the voice, and saw that he gently pulled his clothes to cover the wound, and there was no look of foolishness in his brows, so she smiled and said: "The seventh prince is really healed." .”

"Sister, sit down and talk, don't stand up." Yu Xue pulled Li Shishi to the chair and sat down, and told everything that happened before.

Someone deliberately set fire at Qiu Juhui, trying to put the Seventh Prince to death, and it happened that Yu Xue, who was pretending to be a eunuch, was accompanying the Seventh Prince to study the art of war. When the fire started, Yu Xue and the Seventh Prince hid in the dark cellar under the bed In this way, the danger of fire is avoided.

Hearing this, Li Shishi couldn't help feeling scared.

The left prime minister is insidious and vicious, in order to prevent accidents from happening, even the stupid seventh prince doesn't want to let him go.

If it wasn't for Yu Xue's presence at the time, the consequences would have been even more serious.

"Today Qin Tianjian hastily took the memorial to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to report back, probably related to the fire." Gongsun Qing said thoughtfully.

"Yes, it is said that it is a vision from the sky. The Qintian monitoring has calculated that the country is in danger, and there is a possibility that the country will change hands. Moreover, Zuo Xiang was also in the Hall of Supreme Harmony at that time. I am afraid that he already knows about it." Liu Kwon added with a frown.

"Then who set the fire? Did anyone catch it?" Li Shishi asked.

Liu Quan didn't speak, just shook his head.

"This matter was obviously done by Prime Minister Zuo. There is nothing to investigate." Yu Xue said indignantly, "Prime Minister Zuo is an old man who spends his days thinking about how to usurp the throne, and he doesn't know how important it is to be an emperor. what a good one."

"Don't talk nonsense." Gongsun Qing shouted in a low voice.

Yu Xue stuck out her tongue, then closed her mouth.

"I heard that the queen is seriously ill, how is the situation now?" Gongsun Qing looked at Liu Quan and asked.

"Now the empress is bedridden, she heard the informant's report, she seems to have contracted smallpox. Now the empress's palace has forbidden the palace people to go out, and now it is catching up with the autumn chrysanthemum meeting, the emperor ordered not to publicize it, but judging by the situation, I'm afraid it won't be long before an imperial wife will be arranged to serve the sick."

"So serious?" Yu Xue was a little surprised, she stared at Li Shishi: "Then sister is going to go too... What if she gets infected?"

"What are you worried about? Don't you still have you?" Liu Quan said indifferently.

"What's the use of me, I can't wait for the sick." Yu Xue gave him an angry look: "Stupid wood!"

Not to be outdone, Liu Quan replied: "Aren't you a disciple of Taoist Duliu? You can't even cure this disease, so you can lose face!"

"You! Say it again?!" Yu Xue wanted to stand up and hit him angrily.

And Gongsun Qing looked at Li Shishi who had been bowing his head and said nothing, gently tugged at her sleeve, took advantage of the opportunity to hold her hand, and said in a low voice: "This matter is not trivial, I will try my best to make you avoid it. "

Li Shishi looked up at him, and said softly: "It's okay, I'll go."
