Chapter 82: Fire at Biyao Palace
At this time, many people had come to the Plum Garden to appreciate the flowers. Those talented young men stopped under the plum trees in groups of three or five, reciting poems and composing couplets based on the plum blossoms.
"The plum blossoms are so beautiful, why don't you write a poem on the theme of plum blossoms?" Queen Hong said with a smile, "Whoever writes the best poem will be rewarded."
Hearing this, the young ladies from official families were eager to try and wanted to show their talents in front of the queen.
Just as everyone was thinking hard about their poems facing the plum blossoms, an old eunuch hurried over and shouted, "Empress, something terrible has happened!"
When Empress Hong saw the person coming, she looked a little unhappy: "Eunuch Zhang, why are you so flustered? How can you be so rude?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" The eunuch was so shocked that he knelt down immediately. "I just passed by the Bi Yao Palace and heard the sound of fighting inside. I guess the Imperial Concubine might be in danger. Please go over and take a look!"
Hearing this, everyone was a little bit unconvinced.
The palace is heavily guarded. Today is New Year's Eve, and half of the guards have been added to patrol every corner of the palace. Even if there are assassins who sneak in, they dare not break into the Biyao Palace in broad daylight.
"Eunuch Zhang, don't talk nonsense. Maybe you heard it wrong. The Biyao Palace is closest to your Majesty's Jingren Palace and is heavily guarded. How could there be danger?" Queen Hong said.
"Eunuch Zhang, since you knew there might be danger in Bi Yao Palace, why didn't you ask the Imperial Guards to check it out? Why did you run here to report to my mother? If there really is an assassin, wouldn't that be a waste of time?" The Crown Princess disapproved.
"In reply to the Crown Princess, I have already gone to find the Imperial Guards, and someone has already gone to Biyao Palace to check on the situation. However, I feel that this is a serious matter, so I came here to report to the Queen." Eunuch Zhang replied.
Suddenly someone shouted, "Look, there is thick smoke coming out over there, it seems like there is a fire."
When everyone looked up, they saw thick smoke and heard faint noisy sounds.
The Crown Princess's face changed, and she said to Queen Hong, "Mother, that direction is Biyao Palace. The Royal Concubine may really be in danger!"
"Then let's go over and take a look!" Queen Hong was very worried.
The commotion in the Biyao Palace quickly attracted the attention of many people. In addition, the queen had also left, so everyone lost interest in appreciating the flowers and followed the crowd towards Biyao.
A group of people came to the Biyao Palace in a mighty procession, and saw that many guards had already arrived. Some were carrying buckets of water, and some were holding basins to put out the fire.
The commander of the imperial guards saw the queen coming and hurried forward to greet her, "Your humble servant greets Her Majesty the Queen!"
"No need to be polite." Queen Hong raised her hand and asked, "Lord Xi, what happened in Biyao Palace?"
Commander Xi replied, "To answer your Majesty's question, there was a fire in the small kitchen of Biyao Palace, but the fire has been brought under control. Please do not worry."
"That's good." Queen Hong breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Bi Yao Palace and asked, "Is the Imperial Concubine okay?"
"I haven't seen the Imperial Concubine yet. She should be in the bedroom. I will take people in to check." Commander Xi said as he was about to leave.
"Wait!" Queen Hong stopped him. "Since I'm here, let's go in and take a look! In case something goes wrong, I won't be able to explain to His Majesty."
Hearing this, Commander Xi heaved a sigh of relief, "In that case, I'll trouble the Queen!"
After he brought people into the Biyao Palace, he didn't see anyone and felt a little worried, but they were all men and didn't dare to rashly break into the concubines' bedrooms. Now it would be best for the queen to go in and check!
"Let's go in and take a look!" Queen Hong led a group of people into the Biyao Palace.
In the entire Bi Yao Palace, apart from the guards who were putting out the fire, there was not a single palace maid or eunuch to be seen, and everyone had a bad feeling.
There was a fire in the kitchen, but the palace maids and eunuchs from the Bi Yao Palace were not there. This was too abnormal!
At this moment, someone suddenly said, "Empress, there seems to be a sound in the bedroom."
Hearing this, everyone pricked up their ears to listen.
It didn't matter what they heard, they all looked strange because the sounds of men and women making love came from inside, which was unbearable to hear.
"Someone is doing something shameful in there in broad daylight. How shameless!" Someone shouted.
"Shut up and stop talking nonsense!" Queen Hong scolded.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing who said that. Is this person a fool? This is the imperial concubine's bedroom, and the person inside is most likely the imperial concubine. How dare he say such a thing? Isn't he afraid of losing his life?
Chu Feiyan curled the corners of her lips. This crow was becoming more and more naughty.
"Ah! His Majesty is not here, so who is the Imperial Concubine in there with?" the voice sounded again.
"How dare you!" Queen Hong turned around and glanced at the people behind her. "How can you criticize His Majesty and the Imperial Concubine?"
Everyone was shocked and fell to their knees, "Empress, we didn't say that."
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Oh no! His Royal Highness Prince Rui is unconscious!"
Queen Hong and Chu Feiyan exchanged a glance secretly, and then ordered: "Zhou Lan, go and see what's wrong with Prince Rui?"
"Yes, madam!"
Zhou Lan was Empress Hong's trusted maid. She responded and was about to go and take a look, but she saw several guards carrying a person coming from the back hall and putting him in the middle of the main courtyard.
Chu Feiyan and Queen Hong saw that the unconscious person was King Rui, Long Shiling.
"Prince Rui is unconscious, go and call the imperial physician!" Queen Hong asked someone to call the imperial physician.
"Yes!" A guard received the order and left in a hurry.
"Empress, there was a fire in the kitchen for no reason, Prince Rui is unconscious, and the Imperial Concubine is nowhere to be found. There must be a thief who broke into the Bi Yao Palace!" Chu Feiyan said.
"The Imperial Concubine is in the bedroom and may have been kidnapped by thieves. Open the door of the bedroom and rescue the Imperial Concubine." Queen Hong ordered.
"Yes!"
A dozen guards stepped forward and approached the door of the bedroom step by step.
One person pushed the door of the bedroom first, but failed to open it.
"Empress, the palace door is bolted from the inside!"
"Then break the door open and rescue the Imperial Concubine." Queen Hong said hurriedly.
The guards received the order and two of them kicked hard at the same time.
"boom!"
Those who were selected into the Imperial Palace Guard were all masters of the palace with extraordinary martial arts skills. The solid palace door was kicked open in an instant.
Several guards drew their swords and rushed into the bedroom.
At this time, Commander Xi also rushed over and was about to go in to check, but he saw those people retreating again, with unnatural expressions on their faces.
"What's going on? Have you found the Imperial Noble Consort?" Queen Hong asked anxiously.
"To answer your question, Her Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is inside, but..." The guard began to hesitate when he spoke.
