In Weiyang Palace, Emperor Yinde gently lifted Su Qingyao off the sedan chair and carried her to the main hall.

They were cautious throughout the process, firstly for fear of hurting Su Qingyao, but also for fear of waking the children.

After all, the children are still asleep and they are all so young. If something like this happens, it will be difficult to coax any one of them to wake up.

Emperor Yin De directly placed Su Qingyao on the bed. Seeing that her whole body was still wet, he ordered some water to be prepared.

Ziqiu brought up the freshly boiled ginger soup and fried medicine, placed them on the bedside, and then stepped away respectfully.

Su Qingyao and Emperor Yinde were the only two people left in the dormitory. It seemed that they had experienced a life and death in exchange for this short-term silence.

"It's better to drink the ginger soup first to get rid of the cold." Emperor Yinde held the small white jade bowl containing the ginger soup in his hand, stirred it with a spoon, and finally took a small spoonful and placed it gently. He blew it a few times before passing it to Su Qingyao's mouth.

Su Qingyao raised her eyes and saw some tears in the corners of Emperor Yin De's eyes, so she wiped him lightly with her hands.

This was the first time Su Qingyao saw Emperor Yinde shed tears for her, and it was also the first time she wiped away his tears for him.

Emperor Yin De didn't know why, but as if the softest part of his heart was touched, he put the ginger soup aside and hugged Su Qingyao tightly in his arms.

He was too afraid of losing Su Qingyao.

Su Qingyao was usually the one who was comforted, but this time she comforted Emperor Yin De, "Your Majesty, I'm fine, I'm fine. You really don't have to worry."

Emperor Yinde hugged Su Qingyao for a long time, unwilling to let go, and kept patting Su Qingyao's back gently. Su Qingyao didn't know how much of this tenderness was true and how false.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay," Emperor Yin De said repeatedly.

"You don't even know how worried I was about you at that moment."

"I'm just too worried about Sister Qin, so I just want to take her out quickly. Besides, I'm protected by Your Majesty, the real dragon emperor, so how can something happen?" Su Qingyao said lightly.

"Then you won't be able to do such dangerous things in the future. I will be worried about you." Emperor Yin De said in a serious tone.

It wasn't until Su Qingyao nodded in agreement that Emperor Yin De felt relieved.

"Your Majesty, Concubine, the warm water is ready." Zi Qiu came in to report.

Emperor Yinde was about to take Su Qingyao to take a bath when he heard Ziqiu say again, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Li is back and said he has something important to report."

Su Qingyao also urged, "Your Majesty, please go and deal with it quickly and see what caused the fire. There is also Sister Qin who is unconscious. Your Majesty, please go and have a look."

He said he wanted to get out of bed, "I will accompany your Majesty."

Emperor Yin De quickly supported Su Qingyao and said, "Yao'er, you have a good rest. You are not allowed to go anywhere tonight. If you want to ask for your blessing tomorrow, just stop for a day and I will deal with the rest."

Su Qingyao originally wanted to get out of bed and take a look, but when she saw Emperor Yin De's attitude was so determined at the moment, she had no choice but to give up.

Emperor Yin De had to go to work, so he placed a kiss on Su Qingyao's forehead before leaving in a hurry.

Seeing Emperor Yin De leave Weiyang Palace, Su Qingyao was supported by Zi Qiu and sat upright.

"Master, are you really okay?" Ziqiu asked, and the little girl's brows almost knitted into a knot.

Su Qingyao chuckled and tapped Ziqiu's forehead.

"Ye Jiu has made arrangements in advance. I and Niannian were wet from the beginning, and they ran out in a completely wet place. They must be fine."

When Qin Chongyuan said that she would set Xinran Palace on fire as long as Qiao Chongrong dared to bring the cat to Xinran Palace, Su Qingyao thought that she had to go to the sea of ​​​​fire this time.

Otherwise, how could he test out how sincere Emperor Yin De is to him.

Now it seems that the sincerity given by Emperor Yin De was not enough to make her emotional, but it gave her and her children the courage to be fearless in the palace.

"It's time to take a good bath and change clothes. Don't miss tomorrow's show." Su Qingyao stretched out, put her arm on Zi Qiu's arm, and walked towards the bathroom.

Here, in Changle Palace, Imperial Physician Li has also finished reading Qin Chongyuan.

"I would like to report to Concubine Hui, Concubine Gu, and Concubine Xiuyuan. Concubine Chongyuan's back is a bit badly burned and she needs a good application of medicine."

Then he took out a small bottle of ointment from his medicine box and placed it on the table. "This is a secret recipe passed down from Weichen's family. It is most effective in treating burns. Just apply it three times a day."

Concubine Hui directly picked up the ointment, sat on the bed, dipped a small piece with her finger, and slowly applied it on Qin Chongyuan's wound.

She remembered everything Qin Chongyuan had done for her and Chengyuan, and it was Nian Nian who protected her child.

"Why doesn't Qin Chongyuan wake up?" Wen Xiuyuan asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Your Majesty, Chongyuan, fainted due to excessive fright. It was not caused by the fire. She will wake up in three days at the latest."

When Imperial Physician Li was replying, Emperor Yin De happened to come from outside, "Scared? Were you frightened by something?"

Emperor Yinde came in a hurry, and the matter could not be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Therefore, Li Fuhai had not reported anything on the way, so Emperor Yinde naturally did not know all this.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally glanced at Li Fuhai.

Emperor Yinde stayed with Qin Chongyuan for a while. Seeing that she had no intention of waking up, he ordered the maids to take care of her and led everyone directly to the main hall.

In the main hall, Emperor Yinde sat at the top and pointed to the seats below, before Concubine Hui, Concubine Gu and Wen Xiuyuan sat down one after another.

"Your Majesty, I have just found Xia'er, who is personally serving Empress Chongyuan. Xia'er said that she didn't know whether the fire tonight was an accident."

"Empress Chongyuan has been afraid of the dark since she was a child. She is used to lighting a candle when she goes to bed at night."

"Tonight, Empress Chongyuan was sleeping deeply when she was suddenly woken up by a cat. The cat pounced directly on Empress Chongyuan, so Xia'er hurried over to protect her master."

"But the cat still screamed and frightened Empress Chongyuan for a quarter of an hour."

"In the end, a little eunuch went in to catch the cat. The cat ran very fast and knocked over the candle, which caused the fire."

Li Fuhai bowed and stood in the hall, clearly reporting the truth of the matter.

"A group of slaves, can't even watch a beast? What's the use of them?" Emperor Yin De scolded.

"Your Majesty, calm down."

No one will be afraid of the emperor's wrath.

Concubine Hui and others also saw with their own eyes how fierce the fire was and how embarrassed Su Qingyao and Qin Chongyuan were, but they just lowered their heads and did not dare to persuade them.

Li Fuhai was so frightened that his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground. What he said next would only make Emperor Yinde angrier. He said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, that cat... belongs to His Highness the Fourth Prince."
