Quick Wear: The Concubine is Seductive and Seduces the Mistress

Chapter 433: The Marquis's Trial Marriage Maid 43

The fire started in the middle of the night. By the time we discovered it and came to help, it was already big. It took us quite a while to get water from the well.

By the time the fire was put out, most of the house was burned down and the beams had collapsed. If the people didn't run out, they would most likely be dead.

"How could it be?" Huanyun murmured, "The maid who was taking care of her, why didn't she bring her out?"

She spoke angrily, and after a long while, someone in the crowd spoke weakly, "To answer the young lady, Miss Ayin doesn't like others to follow her. The one who took care of her went home to visit relatives these past two days, so tonight... there is no one else to keep watch."

This is why the fire was not discovered until it grew bigger.

Huanyun didn't like Liu Fuyin, and the two of them were supposed to be enemies, but this person suddenly disappeared, and she felt a little sad.

"No, that's impossible. It has come to this point. How could she die so easily? She's still pregnant..." Huanyun shook her head in disbelief.

She was very weak and had inhaled the thick smoke. After standing for a while, her head went dark and she passed out.

She thought it must have been done by the county magistrate.

There was a fire here, and the secret guard rescued the people and went to the palace to report. The people choked on the smoke and had bleeding eyes, so they were sent to the clinic.

Yuwen Che was being pestered by Concubine Ling at night and was now in her palace. When Lin Mu heard about it, he immediately rushed in to report: "Your Majesty, something happened outside."

Because Concubine Ling was there, he didn't say it very clearly, but Concubine Ling, who had just woken up, could probably guess that he was talking about the one outside the palace.

He sent secret guards to keep an eye on things. Yu Wen Che knew that unless something serious happened, he would not come to report in the middle of the night, so he got up immediately.

Before he could even put on his coat, Concubine Ling suddenly pulled at his sleeves. "Your Majesty, is this something serious? These servants are disturbing you in the middle of the night."

"My dear concubine, I have something important to attend to. I will come to accompany you another day." Yuwen Che said decisively. He tidied his clothes and strode out. One could faintly hear him anxiously asking Lin Mu what was going on.

Concubine Ling gritted her teeth and pinched the quilt in hatred. His Majesty actually cared so much about that woman that he ran away in a hurry just after hearing that something happened.

It was the first time that she didn't keep someone when they came to invite her.

"Huai Xi, go and find out what happened to the people outside the palace that made His Majesty so worried!"

"What, a fire?"

After hearing what the secret guard said, Yuwen Che lost his composure and ran out as fast as the wind.

"Your Majesty, the carriage is ready. Please come..."

Before Lin Mu could finish his words, he saw Yuwen Che untie the reins and mount the horse in a few seconds, and gallop away in an instant.

Your Majesty actually broke the rules and rode his horse in the street.

Lin Mu just finished sighing when he suddenly realized that he was thrown to the spot. His Majesty's figure was not even visible. As for the secret guard who came to report, he ran away from the roof without any martial ethics!

No, what about him?

Yuwen Che was not an emperor who could live in seclusion in the palace. In Lin Mu's words, he had never seen an emperor who loved to go out of the palace so much. If Lin Mu was the queen, she would probably want to ask, "Who is outside the palace?"

It was also for this reason that, except for the most favored Concubine Ling, basically no one discovered that His Majesty had kept a mistress outside the palace.

"What happened?" Yu Wen Che looked at the unconscious person on the couch, and was full of regret at this moment. If only he had taken the person away earlier, it would have been better.

"I'm already brewing the medicine, but Madam inhaled the smoke and had a miscarriage. What happens next... depends on fate."

Yuwen Che frowned, but didn't say anything. He had already asked someone to invite Doctor Fang.

Whenever he had any problems outside the palace, he would consult Doctor Fang, and he even specially bought him a house in the city center.

Doctor Fang was already used to being "invited" by the emperor's men from time to time. "Your humble servant..."

Halfway through the ceremony, Yuwen Che waved his hand and said, "Let her see it first."

Doctor Fang's gaze then fell on the woman on the couch.

This was the first time he saw His Majesty so sad about a woman outside. His heart was in turmoil, but after taking the man's pulse, he could no longer laugh.

How can a person be so weak?

"My medical skills are not..."

"Doctor Fang, if you can save the dragon heir, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of gold."

Before he could say anything to refuse, he was forced to change his tone because of this sentence, "I will do my best."

Are you kidding? Ten thousand taels of gold. He is just an imperial physician. Even if you chop him up, you can’t get that much money!

After taking the medicine to preserve the fetus, Doctor Fang performed acupuncture. After a whole hour, the fetus was finally stabilized.

Yu Wen Che didn't dare to be distracted for a moment and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, both the person and the child were fine, otherwise he would have felt so guilty.

"What exactly caused the fire?"

The secret guard knelt on one knee, clasping his hands together, "I have checked around the mansion. Miss... Miss's residence was doused with oil, which caused the fire to spread so quickly.

He also mentioned that Princess Mingyi had come during the day, and Yuwen Che had a vague guess.

When Liu Fuyin woke up, it was already the next morning. As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a dazzling light and it was a very unfamiliar environment.

Her throat was sore and her voice was hoarse.

"water……"

Concubine Ling did not sleep well all night.

Almost as soon as she closed her eyes, she had a mess of dreams. She even dreamed that she had fallen out of favor, and instead the person from outside the palace had risen to a high position.

"Have you found out anything?" Concubine Ling asked casually. She didn't even know who the emperor had been keeping outside the palace for these days, so she didn't expect to find out anything.

Huai Xi shook her head and immediately talked about the news that had spread this morning: "The house outside the master's house caught fire. I heard that the pregnant concubine kept in there didn't escape, and it was burned to pieces."

Concubine Ling was not interested. "What does this have to do with Your Majesty? It can't be that Zheng'er's concubine is kept by Your Majesty, right?"
