Qingqiu is difficult

Chapter 23 In the Firelight
In November, it was the time when the weather was dry. The people in the old palace were on guard at all times. They patrolled several times at night, but the princess's mansion was still flooded.

Xin Yi was woken up from his sleep by his servants in the middle of the night. He stood in the yard wrapped in a quilt, looking at the firelight in the sky. He heard Xiao Cong carrying a bucket of water, his face covered with charcoal ash, and saying out of breath:
"Princess, the fires in other palaces and rooms are fine. It's just Master Tushan's room that's burned so badly that no one can get in now!"

The quilt on Xin Yi's back suddenly slipped to the ground. Regardless of his bare feet, he ran like crazy towards the wing.

Along the way, she passed countless palace servants, and she grabbed a few at random. After catching them, she asked:
"Have you met Mr. Tushan?"

The person shook his head.

Looking at the flames flying in front of her, Xin Yi felt suffocated. All she could think about was - his legs were not healed yet and they had to take medicine every day. Can he escape?

A beam wrapped in flames fell from a height, collapsed, and hit the ground heavily, sparks flying everywhere.

Xiao Cong ran over with a quilt in his arms and put the quilt on Xin Yi. He was about to comfort her, but unexpectedly, she grabbed the bucket from the servants' hands and poured the entire bucket of water on the quilt. He poured another bucket of water, soaked the quilt, put it on his body, and then rushed to the side room without hesitation before anyone could react.

Princess?Princess!
Xiao Cong's heart almost jumped out of his throat.

Walking around the doorpost, Xin Yi shouted as he walked in:
"Tu Shansong, are you there?"

A fire door fell to the ground, and there was no Tu Shansong there.

She estimated the place and walked towards the bed again. Xiao Cong's voice came from behind her:

"Princess! Don't go in, it's dangerous inside!"

Xin Yi ignored it and kept rushing in. There was nothing here, not that place, not behind the door, and not on the bed.

She felt like the sky was about to collapse, billowing smoke filled her lungs, and scorching flames licked her clothes and the tips of her hair.

No, Tu Shansong, nothing can happen to you. I managed to save you. Even if you and I are ruthless, I must let you live!
But where is your presence in this house?
In the bamboo forest outside the princess's house, Yu Jingmo held a pot of sake and patted the dust on his clothes:
"It would be a shame for such a nice house to burn down."

The man next to him was dressed in black, and his cloak fell to the ground, revealing his bright face. His eyes were as long as the autumn moon, full of sorrow.

Tu Shansong glanced at the princess palace: "It's okay, if I don't set this fire, Emperor Jing will do it."

Yu Jingmo glanced at him with some sympathy: "Then what are your plans in the future? Are you going back to Qingqiu?"

from now on?Now that he has given up his career of revenge, he wants to realize his childhood ideal - to wander around the world in idle clouds and wild cranes, and become a country doctor who can help the world by hanging pots.

Just as Tu Shansong was about to speak, a magpie hurriedly flew over and chirped at the two of them. Yu Jingmo was about to ask what he meant, but saw that there was no shadow of Tu Shansong beside him?
"It's dangerous to be naughty——"

This was the last sound left for him in the air.

Rushing all the way inside, the door is closed tightly. If you climb over the wall, it will take a lot of time.

Tu Shansong's Heart-Activating Technique can force the use of spiritual energy in the royal realm, which will inevitably cause internal chaos and the five qi will go backwards.But how could he care about this at this time!

The door fell to the ground, and Song rushed to the northwest wing. Everyone in the mansion was in chaos, and the northwest wing was filled with flames.

Xiao Cong carried a large basin of water and poured it into the side room. It had already reached the center of the room, but the fire was so fierce that the beams burned down and fell down.

Song rushed into the fire without even looking at it.

Thick smoke billowed down, and Xin Yi fell on the bed covered with a thick quilt.

This fool... There was a sour feeling in his heart, but then there was the sound of deep, thick ice melting and breaking.

Have you ever seen a person willing to give up his wealth and glory to save a prisoner who repeatedly assassinated him?

He picked up Xin Yi and turned around to walk out the door. A beam fell down and hit him hard on the back.

Tu Shansong almost fell to the ground, but he used his spiritual energy to hold on, and with blood oozing from his mouth, he still walked forward stubbornly.

The spiritual energy is overflowing, emitting a dazzling light in the firelight, like the sparkling Buddha's light, faintly melting the burning heat around you.

Fool... these two words only echoed in his mind.

Outside the princess's mansion, on the bamboo forest, Yu Jingmo stood on the top of the bamboo, looking down at the princess's mansion with the flames soaring into the sky, and took another sip of wine.

"Tu Shansong, if you don't save her, won't your revenge have to be avenged? Really, I want her to die, but I can't bear to do it."

But there are always things in the human world that he, as a snake demon, cannot explain.

From the bedroom to the door, this short distance used to be just a few steps, but now it is so long.

Finally, he walked out of the wing with scars all over his body. Xiao Cong and the others hurriedly gathered around him. Xin Yi's eyes were tightly closed, and his lips had lost all color.

Xiao Cong was the first to cry with a trembling voice: "The princess is already weak, how can she withstand the fire poison! Go and call Aunt Chuncheng!"

Everyone poured water in unison, and Huazhu hurried to find Chuncheng.

But is there any use in calling a medical officer at this time?
Tu Shansong felt his heart aching, and he murmured:
"Why...why, Niao Niao, I don't deserve this..."

How is he worth it?He worked hard for many years just to take her life one day.

He set fire to the princess's palace just so that he could escape from the royal family and take advantage of the chaos.

He is nothing but the son of a beast slave. He has lived in humiliation for many years just for revenge. What qualifications does he have?
Tu Shansong's heart was like a knife, and he lived a long life. Finally, he met someone who valued him, but he was the enemy he had been determined to kill since he was a child.

He slowly leaned down and gently touched Xin Yi's lips with his lips.

I have no worries in this life, I just can’t bear you to leave because of me.

In the bamboo forest, on the clear springs in the mountains, in the moonlight, between heaven and earth, there is everywhere spiritual energy flowing at this moment, gathering from all directions.

Chuncheng, who hurried over with the medicine box, couldn't help but feel doubtful. When she looked up, she saw spiritual energy all over the sky converging in one place. She had never seen such a sight in her life, and she couldn't help but wonder, could this be the legendary...

She strode towards the northwest wing.

This kiss was affectionate and lonely. The direction of love could bring life or death. Today, Tu Shansong was willing to exhaust his spiritual energy in exchange for a glimmer of life for the woman in his arms.

When Chuncheng arrived, he stayed where he was like everyone else, staring blankly at the scene in front of him——

Tu Shansong was holding his princess, sitting outside the firelight. The scorching shadow of the jumping fire reflected on his face. He closed his eyes, and one gentle and light kiss after another fell on Xin Yi's lips. , one peck after another, showing infinite nostalgia and tenderness.

After a long time, he slowly stood up. His eyes were like water, and he looked at the girl's face dreamingly. Thousands of spiritual energy merged into the girl's heart. In just a moment, the gray on the girl's face automatically dissipated in the wind and recovered. The ruddy color of the past.

A slight smile appeared on Tu Shansong's face.

Chuncheng hurried forward and took Xin Yi's wrist, and her hanging heart finally fell.

-

In the palace and outside Yongshou Palace, palace officials came to report in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, the princess's mansion is in trouble!"

Emperor Jing woke up from his nightmare. When he heard the words clearly, he rushed out of bed barefoot, opened the door, and grabbed the collar of the palace maid.

"What did you say?"

The palace man's voice trembled, and the two sides quarreled: "Your Majesty, there was a leak in the princess's mansion. We just put it out. The princess was injured, but fortunately she is not serious!"

Throwing the palace man ten feet away, Emperor Jing stood up and said to the concubine in the tent:
"Changing clothes for me, and driving to the princess's house."

　I've always wanted to write an earth-shattering love story
　　But I've never experienced anything earth-shattering.
　　So from my many years of lonely life experience,

　　If there is one person who can be kind, gentle and stable with another person
　　It is the greatest luck and the deepest love
