They didn't even understand what the danger was, so they just ran away, not forgetting to pull out Ye Guiren who fell to the ground in the chaos.
"What's going on? Why do the empress and the emperor suddenly say that the third princess and the seventh prince are in danger? What danger is there?"
Liang Fei asked as she ran, "Is there an assassin?"
Where is the palace? The assassins broke in so easily. Doesn't that question the emperor's human vision?
"Probably not."
Ye Guiren pondered: "What was your Majesty doing just now?"
oh!
Yes!
She called her empress and watched the Kongming Lantern.
"call--"
Another strong wind blew by, and the Kongming lanterns floating in the sky all flew in one direction, but the lights flickered on and off, and it seemed that they might fall downwards.
Ye Guiren's eyes widened: "I know this, they... they want to burn the seventh prince and the third princess to death."
Just now, the Queen of Heaven closed her eyes to feel the direction of the wind.
The emperor pulled Jiang Xinyue and ran on the fairway, followed by a group of Wuyangyang people.
Some of the courtiers did not dare to trespass without the emperor's order, but those who had a close relationship with the Jiang family all followed Jiang Yankun.
The harem is already Jiang Xinyue's domain, but under such circumstances, someone can still harm the two young highnesses under her nose. This shows that this person has a superb mind and meticulous actions, which cannot be compared with ordinary people.
After all, Jiang Xinyue's footsteps were not as fast as the emperor's. She ran and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... you go over first, I am... I am too slow."
She was heartbroken because she couldn't see her child as soon as possible, and she was panicking.
The emperor did not shirk, and waved his hand to call Long Chai: "I won't let anything happen to our child, please take your time."
He sat Jiang Xinyue, who was completely exhausted, in the dragon chariot. He, Meng Qingyu and Shi Ruojun quickly went to Kunning Palace and disappeared within a few breaths.
Kunning Palace——
Nanny Lu squinted her eyes and looked into the air: "Aunt Xiang, who is putting up the Kongming Lantern outside our palace? Is it a special program arranged by the Emperor and the Empress?"
Aunt Xiang held the Seventh Prince in her arms and looked up at the beautiful and gorgeous night sky.
Suddenly, hundreds of sky lanterns seemed to be blown crookedly and fell down by the wind, so fast that people didn't even have time to react.
"Let's go!"
There was a shallow layer of floating powder on the ground, hundreds of sky lanterns fell, and the floating powder flew up. When the Kongming Lantern came into contact with the flying powder, it exploded into large sparks with a loud bang.
"ah!"
"Ahhh!"
Screams accompanied by the "boom" of sparks sounded in the west of Kunning Palace.
Some Kongming lanterns were stuck on the trees in the yard, and the oil spilled out and flowed down the tree trunks. The burning flames followed the traces and ignited the big trees.
In autumn, the weather is dry and withered trees are inherently flammable.
Aunt Xiang felt that her whole body was burned, and her eyes were so burned that she couldn't tell the direction. She wanted to go back to the house, but she had to avoid the explosive sparks.
She closed her eyes and shouted, "Hide Your Highness in your clothes."
Grandma Lu's arms were already covered in large blisters from the fire. When she heard Grandma Xiang's voice coming from an unknown direction, she quickly wrapped the third princess, who was blushing and crying violently, into her thick fur coat. .
She held the third princess in one hand, used the other hand to cover her forehead, and struggled to open her eyes to see the road ahead.
"Mommy Xiang, go to the left and you will be at the verandah immediately."
Aunt Xiang was holding the Seventh Prince and was walking in front just now. It was she who was talking to Aunt Xiang that made Aunt Xiang stop.
Aunt Lu could see where she was.
Although her warning voice was very low, Grandma Xiang listened attentively and heard her words clearly.
After feeling the direction, she slowly moved to the left. When her hand touched the column, she took a big step forward.
Xiao Xiangzi, who was guarding the palace, reacted quickly. When the sparks started to fly, he ordered the eunuchs and maids to rush to fetch water.
The sky lantern can only be placed outdoors. If they are indoors, they still have a chance to save people.
As soon as Nanny Xiang's feet left the courtyard, a burning Kongming Lantern fell to the ground where she had been standing, and a large spark suddenly appeared.
Aunt Xiang looked horrified, seeing that the fire was about to devour her whole body from behind!
"Wow!"
Little Xiangzi didn't have time to care about other people. He held a bucket of water in his hand and stared at Grandma Xiang and Grandma Lu. He would save whoever could come up first.
A large bucket of water was poured behind Mammy Xiang, and the fire that shot up into the sky was only scattered in a moment, and Mammy Xiang escaped unharmed.
What happened seemed to take a long time, but in fact it only happened in the blink of an eye. Kongming lanterns continued to fall in the sky.
Nanny Lu was more unlucky. She was standing a few feet away from the door, and now she was in a dilemma.
The third princess was still crying loudly, and there were screams of palace people being burned around her. Nanny Lu couldn't hear what Xiao Xiangzi was saying to her.
Half of her hair had been burned off by the fire.
A sky lantern slowly floated down, wiping Nanny Lu's eyes downwards, while the third princess was in the fur coat on her chest.
If sparks fly up, the third princess will definitely be injured.
Nanny Lu closed her eyes, hugged the third princess tightly with both hands, pressed her to her chest, squatted on the ground and curled up, protecting the third princess airtight.
If you want to burn her, burn her to death. There must be no harm to the third princess.
"ah!"
"Bang!"
Amidst the heartbreaking screams of Mammy Xiang and the sky filled with fire, the emperor rushed in front of everyone, kicked the Kongming Lantern far away, and exploded a lantern in the corner of the wall.
Meng Qingyu and Shi Ruojun followed closely behind, kicking all the falling Kongming lanterns into unattended corners. The guards also drew their swords and knocked down the Kongming lanterns.
Nanny Lu was so frightened that she burst into tears and handed the third princess to the emperor.
The fair and tender little princess's face was red, with some black ash on her cheeks, and her nose was bubbling with snot from crying.
The emperor felt distressed and wiped her face with a handkerchief and kissed her: "Don't be afraid, little Yuanlan! Father is here! Father is here!"
When the third princess arrived in the emperor's hands, probably because the heat source disappeared, she quietly rubbed it into his hand and stopped crying.
The emperor strode forward with rapid strides. Meng Qingyu and Shi Ruojun were exhausted. They kicked off several combinations of legs and were already out of breath.
Fortunately, all the Kongming lanterns had been dealt with. When Jiang Xinyue ran down from the dragon chariot, the emperor had just walked up to Grandma Xiang: "Where is the Seventh Prince?"
Xiang Mammy opened her coat, revealing a quiet and well-behaved face.
The Seventh Prince slept soundly in Aunt Xiang's clothes as if nothing was wrong.
The emperor couldn't help but hit him on the forehead: "Little one, your sister is crying so miserably, why do you have the nerve to sleep?"
The seventh prince was beaten awake and started crying loudly.
Jiang Xinyue pushed the emperor away, held the seventh prince in her arms and coaxed him: "Don't cry, Rourou! Ignore the bad father."
