Now that the truth has been revealed, she waved her hand at Bai Lan.

"Prepare food for them and have someone watch over this place. No one is allowed to see them without my order."

"Yes, princess."

After Bai Lan agreed, she stood up from the chair, turned around and walked out the door, heading straight for Yan Jing Palace.

She wanted to explain the situation to Leng Yiyan and then decide what to do.

When she arrived at Yan Jing Palace, Leng Yiyan was standing under the sycamore tree in the yard in a daze.

"Ms. sir..."

After she called out, he looked up at her and then forced a smile.

"Did you ask?"

She nodded.

"Well, they told the truth about what happened on the night of their mother's death."

Hearing this, Leng Yiyan's expression became a little nervous. He clenched his fists and asked cautiously,

"Who did these things?"

Although he had known for a long time that Queen Jiang's death was intentional.

But when it came time to find out the truth, he became extremely nervous.

He was afraid to hear those things, but he wanted to know the truth.

After Luo Nianxi pondered for a while, he said:

"It was done by Consort Xian. Not only that, she also killed everyone in Fengyi Palace overnight. The two of them were able to escape because they hid in the small kitchen."

Leng Yiyan's body trembled at this moment, and then he gritted his teeth in anger and said in a cold voice:

"These people are so bold to do such a thing in the palace. Is the emperor's eyes blinded by lard?"

At this moment, he not only hated the person who killed his mother, but also hated this stupid emperor.

"My husband, what should we do about this?"

"What do you think, madam?"

"I think we should take these two people to the palace tomorrow morning and tell the emperor about this."

"Humph!"

Leng Yiyan snorted coldly.

"The emperor is no longer the emperor he once was. It is obviously impossible to expect him to avenge my mother. It is better for us to solve this matter ourselves."

At this point, his fists were clenched tightly and his brows were twisted into a knot.

"My husband, how do you want to solve this? After all, Concubine Xian is a concubine. It is not a wise choice for us to solve this matter privately."

"Of course we can't solve it privately, Ling Xiao..."

He called out, and Ling Xiao came over quickly.

"Your Majesty..."

"Go and inform the Eighth Prince and the ministers in the court to go to the palace on time at dawn tomorrow. The emperor must attend the morning court as scheduled..."

Ling Xiao looked at him in surprise.

"Your Majesty, this is a false imperial decree..."

"If I can avenge my mother, what's wrong with falsely conveying the imperial edict? Besides, the emperor hasn't attended the morning court for many days, so it's only right for everyone to urge him to do so."

"Yes, I will do it now."

Ling Xiao took the order and turned to leave. Luo Nianxi then spoke:

"Speaking of this matter in front of the ministers, even if the emperor is stupid, he cannot turn a blind eye to this matter. My husband, you are doing the right thing."

He looked up, through the leaves of the sycamore tree above his head, at the stars in the sky, feeling an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

Late at night, Prince Yan's Mansion was as quiet as usual. Occasionally, a patrolling guard would pass by, but they would quickly disappear.

Outside Prince Yan's Mansion, a group of men in black took advantage of the night, carrying oil drums and waving them wildly outside Prince Yan's Mansion.

At this moment, someone gave an order, and everyone lit the torches in their hands, and then threw the torches into Prince Yan's Mansion.

At the same time, someone set fire to the place outside the palace where kerosene had been sprayed, and Prince Yan's palace, inside and outside, was instantly engulfed in fire.

"It's on fire, it's on fire..."

Seeing the flames covering the entire palace, the guards who were patrolling at night began to shout. Leng Yiyan was awakened from his sleep by the shouting and quickly got up. Luo Nianxi also opened his eyes at this time.

"Ms. sir, what happened?"

Leng Yiyan pulled off a coat and put it on, and replied anxiously:

"It's on fire. Go check on the kids. I'll go see what's going on."

Hearing this, Luo Nianxi didn't have time to think about it. She just got out of bed, grabbed a coat and ran outside.

At this time, the fire in Prince Yan's mansion was spreading inside the mansion. The servants in the backyard were fetching water to put out the fire. When Leng Yiyan came to the front yard, Ling Xiao and others were trying to break down the door.

"what happened?"

He stepped forward and asked. Ling Xiao turned around and responded loudly:

"Your Highness, someone deliberately set the fire, and someone deliberately blocked the door. Now this door cannot be opened, and no one can get out."

Hearing this, Leng Yiyan's brows tightened in an instant.

He immediately realized that someone was here to kill and silence him. Just as he was thinking about how to open the door, someone called out,

"Your Majesty, be careful..."

It turned out that someone outside kept throwing torches over, and just when they were about to hit Leng Yiyan on the head, Ling Xiao came over and pushed him away, but Ling Xiao turned into a fire man in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Leng Yiyan's mind suddenly went blank, and then countless scenes flashed through his mind.

Yes, at this moment, his memory was restored.

“Ling Xiao…”

Seeing his good brother covered in flames, he rushed over like crazy, took off his coat, and hit him hard.

But torches kept being thrown in from outside, and he had to take care of Ling Xiao while also taking care of the torches falling from the sky.

"Ah! Help!"

"Help! Ah! Ah!"

Over there, people began to roll on the ground one after another.

This scene made his eyes burst into anger instantly, and he shouted loudly,

"Knock on the door..."

At the same time, the backyard was in chaos, and everyone was busy putting out the fire. Bai Lan saw her coming out and ran over.

"Princess, the children are fine, please be safe."

She nodded and pushed open the door of Sijin's room impatiently. Seeing that he was still asleep, she couldn't wait to open Bao'an Hall. After sending him to her office, she sent Jinyu and Jinjie into Bao'an Hall one after another.

After settling her three children, she couldn't wait to run to the front yard.

At this time, the fire in the mansion was growing bigger and bigger, and the water drawn from the well in the backyard was not enough to put out the fire.

At this time, someone called out from the front yard.

"It's bad. The fire is too big to be put out. The door can't be opened. The prince asked everyone to prepare ladders and climb over the wall to leave."

Hearing this, Luo Nianxi froze in place.

Is it true that this huge Prince Yan’s Mansion will be burned to ashes overnight?

If that were true, how many people in this palace could leave alive?

No, she had to find a way to put out the fire.

Thinking of this, she came to the corner, couldn't wait to enter Bao'an Hall, went directly to the fire escape, found the fire hydrant, pulled out the fire hose inside, and ran straight to the door...

Fortunately, it was night time and the nurses on duty were all asleep. Although the entire Bao'an Hall was brightly lit, it was very quiet.

After she walked out of the gate of Bao'an Hall holding the fire hose, she went directly to the backyard of Prince Yan's Mansion. The fire here was still burning and the people here were still busy with their work.

After installing the water pipe, she re-entered Bao'an Hall, turned on the fire hydrant, and water instantly flowed into the water pipe.

She quickly ran back to Prince Yan's mansion, picked up the water pipe, aimed it at the fire, and poured water on it.

In just a moment, the fire that was just blazing was mostly extinguished. At this time, the housekeeper Shunzi ran over. He didn't have time to ask where the water pipe came from. He took the water pipe from her hand and said to her loudly:

"Princess, leave this to me. Go to the front yard and take a look. Guard Ling is seriously injured."
