Tossed into the wolf's den!Zai Zai holds the space in his hands to survive the disaster year

Ye Changyi was puzzled: "Why? Can't you just light a lamp?"

Shen Ningning pressed her hand, her voice was soft and her face was serious.

"Look around, there are Buddhist scriptures. My brother told me that in order to protect the Zhaori Tower from insects and moisture, a layer of paint would be painted on the wood."

"This kind of oil can cause fire if you are not careful, so there should be no lights in the Zhaori Tower all year round. Even when my brother was locked up in the Zhaori Tower, there were no lights."

Ye Changyi also reacted after hearing what she said.

There are so many bookshelves placed densely together in the Zhaori Tower, and there is even a layer of wax on the floor!

If water breaks out and a fire breaks out, it will turn into a sea of ​​​​fire in an instant.

The door was locked and they couldn't escape at all.

Her face was pale and uneasy: "You mean, this oil lamp is placed here for us to light it and then let it go..."

"Concubine Rong wants to burn me alive?" Ye Changyi finally realized the truth.

But she couldn't believe it.

She has always been diligent and loyal, and has never disobeyed Concubine Rong.

Getting along with the Ninth Prince is even more harmonious.

Why did Concubine Rong want her life?
Shen Ningning noticed that Ye Changyi was shaking violently, and her lips, which were black from the cold, were also trembling.

She held Ye Changyi's hand tightly: "Zhaori Tower is a place built by the emperor's uncle for his brother's illness and to pray to God for blessings."

"There are too many symbolic meanings here. Once it is burned down, it will definitely be regarded as an ominous omen in the eyes of the world."

"But I didn't guess Concubine Rong's intention..." The little guy scratched his face.

No matter how you think about it, Concubine Rong's plan is very scary.

Ye Changyi immediately hid behind Shen Ningning.

"Then we won't light the lamp. I'd rather freeze to death."

Shen Ningning blinked twice. She looked at the oil lamp and then at the window not far away.

The little guy suddenly had an idea.

"If Concubine Rong's people don't come, we will ask for help ourselves!"

She picked up the oil lamp, ran to the window, and lit it with a flint.

Ye Changyi was startled: "Shen Ningning, be careful, don't burn us all to death!"

Shen Ningning ignored her.

The oil lamp in her hand lit up a flame the size of a soybean, illuminating her milky white face.

The little guy stood on tiptoes and placed the oil lamp on the window.

Ye Changyi suddenly understood: "Do you want to use the lamp to tell others that there is someone in the Zhaori Tower?"

Shen Ningning nodded, her voice was soft and her round face looked calm and cute.

"The Imperial Guards take a shift every hour. As long as they patrol nearby, they will definitely see the light here."

After that, the little guy put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly: "Here comes someone! Is there anyone?"

Ye Changyi held on to the wall and walked over step by step to Shen Ningning's side.

They both shouted in unison.

After a while, Ye Changyi looked closely, and there were actually several figures walking towards this side!
However, the night was dark and mixed with flying snow particles, so it was impossible to see who it was.

The palace lantern held by the other party also flew left and right, shaking violently.

"Someone is coming, someone is finally here!" Ye Changyi shouted even harder as if she saw hope.

Shen Ningning raised the oil lamp, stretched it out the window, and shook it back and forth.

This light of fire finally brought the stranger in front of them.

When Shen Ningning saw the other person's face clearly, her voice stopped suddenly, and she swallowed her words for help.

Ye Changyi took a closer look and almost cried with joy.

"It's Mr. Xie, your second brother Xie Ming'an!"

She tugged on Shen Ningning's sleeves excitedly: "We are saved."

Xie Mingan's eyes were illuminated by a candlelight, but they were bottomless.

He glanced at the tightly locked door next to him.

"What are you doing here?" Xie Mingan's voice was extremely cold.

Shen Ningning remained silent while Ye Changyi said in a panic: "We were imprisoned by Concubine Rong, but Concubine Rong forgot to let us out." "Master Xie, can you please go to the inner palace to bring a message and ask Concubine Rong to send someone to take care of us?" Let’s release it.”

Xie Mingan's eyes turned to Shen Ningning.

The little guy bit his lower lip, and his round cheeks, probably due to the cold, had long lost their pink color and looked very white.

Her long black eyelashes were trembling, and she did not raise her head to look at him, let alone ask him for help.

Xie Mingan said calmly: "Ask for more blessings."

Then, he turned and left.

Ye Changyi froze on the spot, looking at his back.

"Shen Ningning, what does he mean? Are you not going to help us pass the message?"

"Shen Ningning, why didn't you speak just now? What's wrong with you?"

Ye Changyi chattered for several times, and finally realized that the little guy's mood was wrong.

It seemed as if the hope in Shen Ningning's eyes disappeared the moment she saw Xie Ming'an appear.

The little guy squatted down and hugged his knees: "Let's wait for others."

Ye Changyi felt strange.

Shen Ningning had such a close relationship with Xie Mingxu, the eldest son of the Xie family, but when it came to the second brother Xie Ming'an, it was like a stranger.

But she also guessed that they probably couldn't get along.

Ye Changyi refused to give up and continued to hold the oil lamp and shouted for help.

However, the oil lamp was quickly extinguished by snow particles and turned into a ball of wet lamp strings, which could no longer burn.

Ye Changyi was also exhausted, her whole body ached, and she was sometimes cold or hot.

She leaned on Shen Ningning's small shoulder, and the two of them were wrapped in cloth and shivering.

"Shen Ningning, I'm so hungry... If a bowl of sweet potatoes was placed in front of me at this time, I would eat it without hesitation."

Ye Changyi was so cold and hungry that she almost cried.

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Ningning's little hand held up a piece of sweet potato in front of her.

"Do you eat?"

Ye Changyi's eyes widened, thinking she had seen it wrong.

"You actually carry dried sweet potatoes with you?"

Shen Ningning smiled sweetly and said lightly: "Take it with you and use it as a tooth-beating sacrifice at any time."

As she spoke, she opened the small bag on her waist and handed it to Ye Changyi.

When I opened it, there were more than a dozen sun-dried sweet potato slices inside!

Ye Changyi devoured it and didn't forget to hand one to Shen Ningning: "You can eat it too."

The little guy pushed her hand away: "I'm not hungry, so you can eat everything."

After all, she could always feast in Wonderland.

But there was no way to bring the food in the fairyland to Ye Changyi, so Ye Changyi had no choice but to eat all the sweet potatoes and dry them.

After eating, Ye Changyi finally felt a little warm.

But her head was so dizzy that in the end, she fell asleep leaning on Shen Ningning's little shoulder.

"Shen Ningning, tell me, will we die here?"

"No, we are destined to be lucky, and lucky people have their own destiny."

"But, I feel like I'm freezing to death." Ye Changyi's lips were white as she listened to the sound of snow particles hitting the eaves outside.

She hummed weakly and laughed twice, her voice bitter.

"I didn't expect that you would be the one who stayed with me before I died. If I had known that I would become friends with you, I wish I hadn't bullied you."

"Did you bully me?" Shen Ningning blinked her eyes.

Ye Changyi was unforgiving, but when it came to bullying, she had never done anything to hurt Shen Ningning.

Listening to Shen Ningning's words, Ye Changyi closed her eyes, smiled and said, "No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince can be friends with you..."

Her voice became weaker and weaker, and then she passed out completely.

When Shen Ningning touched her forehead, it was extremely hot.
