Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate

Just in case, Mei Susu hid under the couch until the person on the couch began to breathe evenly.

The young palace maid on duty had already fallen asleep on the side couch.

The incense burner nearby was burning with the scent of peach blossoms. As the aroma rose up, Mei Susu nimbly jumped onto the bed.

On the couch, Xuanyuan Yue was sleeping soundly with a rosy face, her little face was smooth and flawless.

Mei Susu sat beside her pillow, staring at her for a long time, raising her paws again and again, but couldn't bring herself to do it.

If she did this, wouldn't she be the same as Xuanyuan Yue?

Is her purpose to hurt people?

Face is the most important thing for a woman. If Xuanyuan Yue's face is really scratched, she will be doomed.

Mei Susu struggled in her heart, and then her eyes changed.

If she was asked to swallow this anger, it would be absolutely impossible, but if she grabbed Hua Xuanyuan Yue's face, it would be more trouble than gain.

Might as well teach her a lesson.

Meisusu raised her claws, her eyes fierce.

Xuanyuan Yue, you want to skin me alive, right?

If you have the guts, come and get it!

Under the flickering candlelight, Mei Susu's figure on the couch was stretched extremely long and reflected on the wall, looking weird and terrifying.

A faint light flashed, and her sharp claws landed squarely on the ear of the person on the couch, leaving three bloody marks.

Xuanyuan Yue suddenly woke up with a sharp pain.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a dark shadow running towards the window at an extremely fast speed.

She seemed to realize what the black shadow was, and she cursed it as a little beast. She grabbed the object beside her pillow and threw it over without saying a word.

Unfortunately, the object missed its aim and did not hit the shadow, but instead knocked over the lone candlestick on the table not far away.

With a loud "clang", the candlestick fell onto the table, and the candlelight spilled onto the brocade on the table, igniting at the slightest touch.

Mei Susu didn't know that Xuanyuan Yue had knocked over the candlestick. She jumped out of the windowsill and ran towards Chaoyang Palace without looking back.

By the time she discovered that the Moon-Lanling Palace was ablaze, it was already too late.

She stood in front of the door of Chaoyang Palace, looking at the place filled with flames, her eyes filled with disbelief. She remembered that she didn't touch anything when she climbed out of the window.

Why did the Moon-Lanling Palace catch fire?

Mei Susu squatted in front of the door of Chaoyang Palace and thought carefully about what happened from the time she entered Lanyue Palace to the time she left.

After confirming that the fire was not caused by her, she shook her fur, got up from the ground, and jumped onto the windowsill, wagging her tail.

Since it wasn't her fault, it's none of her business. I guess it's retribution.

Call it a day and go to sleep!

The candlelight in the Chaoyang Hall had gone out, except for a tiny light on the bronze candlestick.

Mei Susu glanced at the desk in the distance, but it was empty and there was no one in sight.

When she entered the hall just now, she looked at the timer and it was already midnight.

I guess Xuanyuan Che has already fallen asleep.

Mei Susu walked slowly to the couch, looked at the bright yellow curtain, hesitated for a moment, and then jumped onto the couch.

The curtain blocked the candlelight outside, making the inside of the tent extremely dark.

The clear scent of ambergris enveloped this world, which was the unique scent of Xuanyuan Che.

The cat's eye can see at night, so Mei Susu also saw Xuanyuan Che sleeping with his eyes closed.

His breathing was very shallow, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and even in his sleep, his brows were slightly furrowed.

He looked grim, and was obviously in a bad mood before going to bed.

Mei Susu looked for a while, then obediently found a spot next to Xuanyuan Che's pillow, curled up her tail and wrapped herself, looking very adorable.

Just as she was about to close her eyes, a cold voice suddenly sounded: "Where did you go?"

Mei Susu's eyes, which were about to close, suddenly opened, and she looked to the side. Xuanyuan Che didn't look like he was asleep at all. His eyes were as clear as waves, and he was supporting his head with one hand, looking at her with a pair of evil eyes.

"Meow~" Mei Susu called out tenderly, showing her great joy that he had woken up.

She immediately stood up and stepped onto his chest, sweeping her little tail back and forth on his chest.

Then, without waiting for Xuanyuan Che to open his mouth again, she raised her paws and climbed onto his shoulders, rubbing her little head against his neck and making purring sounds of satisfaction.

Although she was so enthusiastic, Xuanyuan Che's expression did not ease at all.

He touched Meisusu's little tail with his slender knuckles: "What's wrong?"

Mei Susu meowed and continued to rub against Xuanyuan Che. After hearing the question, she raised her bright big eyes and looked at him pitifully.

It was obvious that he had been bullied.

Xuanyuan Che's eyes were darker than the darkness in the tent. The little guy had never complained to him before, but today he was like this. It was obvious that there was someone blind outside.

"Taohuaxiang, went to Lanyue Palace?"

Xuanyuan Che smelled the faint peach blossom scent on her body, and Xuanyuan Yue's face appeared in his mind. He had a sinister expression and a murderous aura around him.

Mei Susu was not surprised that Xuanyuan Che could guess that she was going to Lanyue Palace. With his abnormal observation skills, it would be abnormal if he couldn't guess it.

"Meow." Mei Susu responded to him, nudging Xuanyuan Che's hand with her little nose, and her small body fell into Xuanyuan Che's arms as soft as water.

is her! That's her!

You want to peel off my skin and pull out my tendons!

Don't think that Xuanyuan Yue is the only one who would complain, she can do it too!

Xuanyuan Che's expression became even uglier when he got the answer.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the tent, and a young eunuch's voice rang out: "Your Highness, there is a fire in the Third Princess's Moon-Lanling Palace. His Majesty is furious and wants you to go over there."

"Just right." Xuanyuan Che sneered, "I just happened to be looking for someone to settle a score."

He looked down at Meisusu, and Meisusu also looked at him with her big eyes.

Seeing her cute appearance, Xuanyuan Che's dark eyes became less cold and he pinched her little ear: "Susu, do you want to go with me?"

Mei Susu rubbed his hand and called out softly.

This is what it means to go.

Xuanyuan Che raised the corners of his eyes, smiled, put his arm around her, raised his hand and waved, and the curtain fluttered away.

"Change."

The young eunuch outside the tent knelt down hurriedly: "As you command."

--------

Outside the Lanyue Palace, countless palace maids and eunuchs were carrying buckets of water and shuttling back and forth. Even if someone fell in the panic, they would not care about the pain, but get up and carry the buckets of water to pour water towards the Lanyue Palace.

However, there were a lot of brocade and silk in the Lanyue Palace, and the things that would catch fire if touched would only burn more fiercely.

Moreover, the Lanyue Palace is different from other palaces in the palace. Xuanyuan Yue is afraid of insects, so in order to prevent them, craftsmen specially coated the walls of the palace with special materials.

That material is also flammable. If it is a small fire, it can be put out if discovered in time. But such a big fire cannot be put out with just a few buckets of water.

Amidst the flames rising into the sky, Xuanyuan Yue leaned in Empress Cao's arms and cried breathlessly.

"Mother, someone wanted to harm me. I almost died in this fire. I am so scared."

Queen Cao patted Xuanyuan Yue's shoulder to comfort her.

He looked up at the blazing fire and then at Emperor Shunde who was standing by with his hands behind his back and said, "Your Majesty, please find the murderer who murdered Yue'er."

Emperor Shunde did not say anything. He just stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the burning Lanyue Palace with an unreadable expression.

Empress Cao heard this and started crying: "Does Your Majesty want to let the murderer of our child go?"

"If Your Majesty doesn't investigate, I will investigate myself!"
