Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

Chapter 351: Covering others’ eyes

"The fire in my father-in-law's house is so big now, what should we do to put it out?"

Jiang Yu was also in a very depressed state at this time, never expecting that the fire would be so big.

Jiang Yu told them to quickly put out the fire here, but they were surprised to find that everyone was moving very slowly.

"I've been thinking about this issue all along. If this gets back to His Majesty, I think he will definitely punish us."

They were all in a state of great fear at that time.

They've been pondering these questions here and there, thinking about this and that but still can't come up with anything.

"damn it……"

At this moment, Qin Yanling was reviewing memorials in the imperial study. He planned to find Prime Minister Xu after he finished reviewing the memorials, but unexpectedly, he saw a disheveled eunuch come to Qin Yanling.

"This servant has something to tell you, concerning Her Highness. In other words, this Imperial Concubine is currently..."

Listening to the eunuch's words, he was momentarily confused, unable to understand a word the eunuch said. Instead, he kept staring at the eunuch. "I don't quite understand what you're saying. Why don't you tell me now?"

He genuinely couldn't understand this person's thinking at this moment, and the more he listened, the more confused he became...

"The Imperial Concubine's palace is already flooded, and there's no way to put it out now. I don't know what Your Majesty should do next. We've tried our best to save it, but we still haven't been able to extinguish it."

Qin Yanling certainly knew what they meant by those words; it was nothing more than a reference to this person's palace...

Qin Yanling slumped to the ground. She was perfectly fine this morning, so how could she have become like this this afternoon...?

He never expected things to happen so quickly. Later, Qin Yanling, supported by Xiao Li, arrived at the palace and indeed saw that the palace was now engulfed in flames.

They were all genuinely surprised; they never imagined it would turn out this way.

"My God, I never expected it to look like this. It's unbelievable. I never imagined the fire would be so big."

They must have been chattering away here at this time, but when they saw Qin Yanling arrive, they immediately shut their mouths and didn't dare to say another word, instead lowering their heads.

"When exactly did this fire start? If you dare to deceive me here, don't blame me for being impolite."

They all just looked at each other like that.

"The fire actually started two hours ago. We've been trying to put it out for two hours, but we just can't keep it burning. It's getting bigger and bigger."

They all genuinely felt rather helpless at this time.

"I never imagined this fire would burn for so long. Are any of the people inside still alive?"

Qin Yanling looked deeply saddened as he inquired about the situation, and they told him, "Your Majesty, please accept my condolences. By the way, not a single person survived."

Shangguan Tian'er and Xu Jiu must know about this now, and they also know that Qin Yu and Mo Yun have successfully taken Murong Xueqi away.

They never expected Qin Yu and Mo Yun to be so fast. At this moment, they decided to pretend they didn't know anything about it and go check it out.

They had all arrived by then, and Qin Yanling saw Shangguan Tian'er and Xu Jiu. The two of them naturally began to question them. "Why have you two suddenly come here? It's quite puzzling to me. Has something happened?"

"I heard there was a fire in the Imperial Concubine's palace, so I came to check. I wonder how the Imperial Concubine is doing now? Has she been rescued? I won't say anything more about the Imperial Concubine..."

Qin Yanling looked distressed, as if he had just survived a life-threatening situation. Shangguan Tian'er and Xu Jiu pretended to comfort him, especially Shangguan Tian'er, who gestured to Xu Jiu with her eyes.

Xu Jiu suddenly realized what was going on, and pretended to faint from extreme discomfort. She fell to the ground, and Qin Yanling caught her.

The imperial physicians eventually arrived and examined Xu Jiu's condition. They were astonished to find that Xu Jiu was now...

They must have all found it incredible at that moment, never imagining that Xu Jiu would faint from grief. The imperial physician eventually told Qin Yanling, "Your Majesty and Her Highness fainted because of excessive sadness. Rest here, and you will naturally regain consciousness."

Then Qin Yanling turned his gaze to Shangguan Tian'er. "I hope you can do something."

Shangguan Tian'er, unaware of Qin Yanling's intentions, earnestly inquired, "You must take good care of Xu Jiu during this time, understand? There absolutely cannot be the slightest mistake."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will take good care of my sister and ensure that she gives birth to this imperial child safely."

This matter is already known to everyone in the harem.

After everyone in the harem learned of this, they all came to this place.

Their purpose in coming here was simple: to watch a show. However, some of them were genuinely saddened by Murong Xueqi's situation, since she had always been kind to them.

Although sometimes things are indeed like that... overall they are quite good to them, so they came here to pay their respects to Murong Xueqi with all their hearts.

They all clearly understood that the raging fire was beyond saving.

At first, I thought they could be saved, but in the end, I found that it was impossible.

The fire grew larger and larger, then gradually dwindled, and when it finally died down, the palace was found to have been completely destroyed...

Inside were some charred corpses, so badly dismembered that it was impossible to tell who was who.

However, some people have confirmed that the corpse in the very center is Murong Xueqi.
