The prince is very cruel

As the fire spread, billowing black smoke appeared in the sky and was soon discovered.

"Fire!"

"The Kunning Palace is on fire!"

"quick!!"

"Quickly put out the fire!"

The eunuchs ran around, shouted loudly, and beat gongs and drums, breaking the silence of the entire harem.

A large number of eunuchs and palace maids came to put out the fire, but the fire was too big and the effect was minimal. They lined up in a long queue to fetch water from the well, and it often took dozens of seconds to get a bucket of water. This speed was simply a drop in the bucket.

Soon, the fire continued to spread, starting from the bedroom and completely burning through the five palaces of Kunning Palace. The sea of ​​fire was boundless, rising into the sky and illuminating most of the palace.

There was chaos at the scene. A few minutes later, the imperial guards were alarmed and rushed into the harem in groups to help put out the fire.

Looking down at this situation, Guan Ning's eyes lit up. The opportunity has come!

"Hold on to me and close your eyes!" He turned around and glanced at Yapin on his back.

At this moment, Concubine Ya was terrified and her body could not help but tremble. She hummed in her throat and hugged Guan Ning tightly with both hands.

The moment she closed her eyes, the strong feeling of weightlessness almost made her scream. She felt dizzy and as if she was flying in the air.

But she remembered what Guan Ning had said, that no matter what the situation, she should not make any sound, so she gritted her teeth and held on to Guan Ning tightly, not making any sound even though she was scared.

During this time, she couldn't help but take a peek, and was so frightened that her face turned pale and she almost fainted. Guan Ning was carrying her on his back and flying in the air more than ten meters above the ground.

From then on, she would never dare to open her eyes.

Under the huge and cold waning moon, the fire in the harem was a spectacular sight. Everyone was rushing there, while Guan Ning kept flying across the roof of the palace with people on his back, like a ghost under the moon, disappearing in a flash.

He calmly avoided all the checkpoints and, relying on some small paths told to him by Xiao Shouzi, successfully approached the palace gate.

Just as victory was within reach and they were about to break through the palace gate, suddenly, an accident happened.

Wow!

There was a roar of armored personnel, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves and shouts: "The harem is on fire, the palace is under martial law, no one is allowed to enter or leave!"

"Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes!!"

The sound exploded in the darkness. It was the imperial guards who strengthened the defense of the palace gate. There were at least a thousand people guarding the door, and rows of torches lit up the palace gate like daylight.

Guan Ning was breathing heavily, hiding in an unknown alley. When he stuck his head out, his face was extremely gloomy.

"Guan Ning, what's wrong?" Yapin opened her eyes tentatively, her face pale and nervous.

"The imperial guards reacted too quickly. As soon as the fire broke out, they immediately blocked the palace gates. I really underestimated the imperial palace." Guan Ning frowned.

"Then, what should we do?" Yapin's face turned even paler.

"Otherwise, you go first."

"It's not easy to walk with me on your back." As she said that, she was about to get off, not wanting to implicate Guan Ning.

"Don't move. Are you kidding me? If I leave you alone, am I still a human being?" Guan Ning said with a smile.

Yapin was moved and bit her lip and said, "But it will be even harder for you to carry me like this."

"If you have this heart, I will die without regrets."

Guan Ning shook his head: "It's not as serious as you think. If you get a little excited, the plan will succeed."

"It's just a matter of how to get out. At worst, we can just hide in the palace and wait until martial law is lifted before going out."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Ya's expression finally calmed down a bit. She glanced at the palace gate not far away and said worriedly, "The palace has many rules. Usually, when encountering emergencies like this, they will conduct a thorough investigation from top to bottom."

"How about we find a place to hide first? Someone might come to search soon."

Guan Ning stared at the city gate: "No rush."

"We have help."

"Help?" Yapin was stunned.

"Is it a small picture?"

"Not my brother-in-law." Guan Ning sensed her nervousness, so he said humorously.

Yapin's face flushed slightly, and she felt inexplicably sweet.

"Who is that?"

Guan Ning was about to speak when his pupils suddenly shrank. What was that?

Suddenly, the gate of Huaqing Gate was set on fire, and the gate of the imperial palace was actually set on fire!

"fire!"

"Sir, there is a fire!" shouted an imperial guard.

When the general guarding the palace gate saw this, his legs went limp with fear. This was the palace gate he was responsible for. If a fire broke out, he would be held accountable. Moreover, a fire at the palace gate was a scandal!

"Fire, fire!"

"Go!"

"General, but we have to guard the city gates."

"It's already late. If the palace gates burn, neither you nor I will survive!" The general shouted hysterically at the man who was speaking. He was almost crazy.

"Yes!"

In an instant, at least 80% of the manpower rushed to put out the fire, causing the martial law at the palace gate to be relaxed a lot.

Guan Ning's eyes lit up, there was no time to think too much, the opportunity would never come again!

He leaned against the shadow cast by the city wall and quickly touched the corner of the wall. His sharp eyes were fixed on the toothed wall of the palace gate. He untied the hook at his waist, spun it at high speed in his hand, and then threw it away.

The hook seemed to have eyes and was firmly hung on the twenty-meter-high tooth wall.

Guan Ning pulled hard, and then said, "Let's go!"

Yapin nodded repeatedly, took a deep breath, her heart in her throat, and hugged Guan Ning tightly.

Guan Ning took all his strength and climbed up with Yapin on his back.

Fortunately, Concubine Ya was very light. Apart from having some flesh where it should be, her waist and legs were very thin. This did not put much burden on Guan Ning. After only a dozen breaths, he successfully climbed up.

At this time, three imperial guards patrolled to the corner of the wall.

Although most of the people rushed to put out the fire, there were still people guarding the palace gate.

not good!

Guan Ning's nerves tensed up instantly, and the rope was still hanging in the air!
