Chapter 50 Night Fire

"Father, my son has an unfeeling request...can you let me take this painting?" Su Huang asked.

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "What do you want this painting for?"

"I feel that the woman in the painting... is extraordinarily kind and warm. Last night...I dreamed of my mother...She smiled at Erchen, but Erchen couldn't see her face clearly. Today I saw this by chance. The painting is inexplicably kind. The queen mother died because of the son, but the son didn't know the face of the mother, it's really unfilial, please ask the father to complete it."

The emperor was silent for a long time when he heard the words, with complex emotions that Su Huang couldn't understand in his eyes.After a while, the emperor slowly rolled up the scroll and handed it to Su Huang.

"It's rare that you have such filial piety. Go back and don't come here again."

Su Huang took the scroll calmly, thanked her and left the palace.He tried his best to restrain the beating of his heart, ran all the way back to the East Palace, and closed the gate of the palace.

Su Yin is the name of his uncle Jinghe.

With trembling hands, Su Huang took out the scroll from her pocket, and compared it carefully in the sunlight.Sure enough, Su Yin's name danced between the thick ink.Su Huang looked at the picture scroll several times over and over again, and made sure that there were no other flaws in the whole picture except for this place with a name.

Su Huang covered his mouth in surprise.Mixed feelings.

His mother had close contacts with Jing and Wang?And then what?Some people sent killers to take Empress Showa away, did they know the connection?What about the emperor?He knew that Empress Showa had been kidnapped, but he remained indifferent?In other words, does he know that Empress Showa is still alive?

In a panic, Su Huang touched the whistle in his arms.He held the whistle tightly in the palm of his hand, and then he calmed down a little, and poured himself a cup of tea to wake up.

Su Huang wrote the letter with a pen, carefully stuffed it in the letter box, and released the pigeon.

Some seemingly irrelevant things have quietly woven a huge net.Su Huang felt that she was sinking in little by little, and the person who once protected herself behind her was now on the road of exile.

"Xuanji Pavilion is the emperor's confidant. But Xuanji Pavilion's assassination of you...is merciless."

Maliciousness had already permeated the entire imperial city unknowingly.

Feng Ze only came to the East Palace on the second night.

"Why is Feng Daxia here now?" Su Huang's eye bags were a little dark, and she hurriedly supported Feng Ze to rest, "Why are you so out of breath, did you encounter any difficulties on the road?"

"It's okay, it's been resolved." Feng Ze waved his hand, calmed down a little and said, "Su Huang, are you willing to leave the palace?"

Su Huang was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why do you say such things suddenly? How could I leave rashly?",

"Sure enough, he still understands you." Feng Ze sighed, and said nervously, "Just now when I came in, it was not smooth, and there were several more guards in the East Palace. Some of the guards seemed to have evil intentions, and they looked like people from the quack. I suspect that someone has planted their own eyes on the imperial guards in the palace, and now the East Palace is guarded very tightly, with secret sentries everywhere. Su Huang, someone wants to attack you."

"So serious?" Su Huang was slightly surprised, "What about you? Is it still convenient to leave?"

"Now is not the time to talk about when I will leave." Feng Ze said, "Someone wants to plot against the Lord of the East Palace. I'm afraid your life is in danger. Do you understand?"

"I know who it is." Su Huang nodded, "I have confirmed with Su Huan yesterday that the people in Lanyue Villa are inseparable from him. It may be his intention that my mother's queen was hijacked, but I don't know his identity yet." Purpose."

"Now is not the time to discuss these things." Feng Ze said, "The East Palace is very unsafe now. And soon, the entire Donghui will also be unsafe. I can think of a way to protect you from being entrusted with loyalty. Just to take you away."

"Hero Feng." Su Huang solemnly pushed Feng Ze away and grabbed his hand, and said solemnly, "I still can't go with you. It's my fault to let you break trust, but in this palace, I still have to Something not to do. I have roughly investigated the matter of my mother and mother. I still don't know the purpose of my brother, and this matter, I need to hear an explanation from my father."

"...You asked about your mother in the letter, and I saw it." Feng Ze sighed, and slowly took out a pair of Danqing from his sleeve and handed it to Su Huang, "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. I Ask Ah Wei to draw a picture for your mother, and you can see if it is the same person as the woman in the picture scroll you got."

"Thank you, hero, for your thoughtfulness."

After Su Huang thanked him, he quickly spread out the picture scroll. Although the woman in the picture scroll is a bit old, her eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as the woman in the portrait he got in the cold palace the day before yesterday!

"It is indeed the same person." Su Huang confirmed it several times, and solemnly put away the scroll, "The matter is of great importance, and I need to know the truth."

"It's just that the truth may not make your wish come true." Feng Ze whispered, "That's all. If you don't want to leave, I will naturally not force it. I will do my best to help you. You have found some clues in the past two days ?”

Su Huang roughly told Feng Ze about the events of the previous two days.

"So that's how it is." Feng Ze sighed, "...When you met the emperor in Lenggong, he became suspicious of you. And the relationship between him and Empress Showa is no different from a scar to him. The emperor Suspicious, thinking that you were instigated by someone to go to the cold palace, so heavy soldiers were deployed at the door to monitor your actions. So far, there is no malicious intention. And your brother's purpose is nothing more than to replace you. But why did he Do you want to rob Empress Showa at any cost? Could it be that he also knew about the past and wanted to blackmail your father with this, and aim at... the throne?"

Su Huang shook his head in confusion, "I don't know either."

"I always feel that there are some clues to this matter that we have ignored." Feng Ze pondered, "In short, you have to be careful these days. Also, take out the painting of Empress Showa and burn it. Although some I'm sorry, but there are still many opportunities to meet in the future, don't stick to this painting."

"...Just as the hero said." Su Huang's eyes flashed a little unbearable, but since he can discover the two words on the scroll, it's hard to guarantee that others won't.

Su Huang handed the scroll to Feng Ze.Turned around and brought the brazier.

After Fengze took the scroll, his expression suddenly became serious.

"What's wrong?" Su Huang noticed something was wrong, and asked softly, "What's wrong with this scroll?"

"Bring a knife." Feng Ze said solemnly, "There may be a lot of mystery in this scroll."

Seeing this, Su Huang hurriedly took out a delicate silver knife from the drawer.Feng Ze thanked him, and the picture scroll was laid flat on the table, with a slight cut behind the word Su Yin.Feng Ze deftly turned the knife, and the words on the back of the scroll appeared little by little.

Shiliting, if you come, you will turn the world upside down.

"It seems that this is an agreement, but it's a pity that Empress Showa didn't understand the mystery in the painting." Feng Ze shook his head, "But this clue doesn't help us much."

Su Huang quietly took the scroll, picked it up and looked at it for a moment, then lit the scroll with a candle.But it turned into a pile of ashes in an instant.

"After these things subside, I want to see her." Su Huang sat weakly in front of the lamp, the dim candle flame dancing in his tearful eyes.

"Don't think too much, people always have to look forward. Now we should consider how to deal with your brother and father."

Before the words were finished, loud footsteps suddenly came from outside.Immediately afterwards, someone knocked on Su Huang's palace door.

Both Su Huang and Feng Ze were startled.

"Who? I have already rested." Su Huang replied.

"Come and report to His Highness the Crown Prince that the Tai Ming Palace is flooded!" someone said outside the door.

"Walking water? Where's the emperor?" Su Huang hurriedly asked.

"I don't know, but this time the fire is not small, I'm afraid it will take some time, so I'm here to inform His Highness." The outsider replied.

"I know." After hearing the footsteps outside, Su Huang hurriedly put on his coat and was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by Feng Ze.

"Tai Ming Palace is flooded, why did you ask someone to notify you? Su Huang, don't you think something is wrong?" Feng Ze said, "Let's see what happened."

"The hero is worrying too much." Su Huang said anxiously, "Tai Ming Palace is not far from the East Palace, so it is not wrong to send someone to inform. I will go and see if the father is safe and sound, and I will never put myself in danger."

"...No! If you don't leave now, when will you wait for such a god-given opportunity?" Feng Ze said righteously, "Follow me, I will take you out of the palace!"

"Wouldn't it be cheaper for Su Huan to go out of the palace now?" Su Huang broke away from Feng Ze, "If the water is not an accident this time, but someone deliberately set the fire, wouldn't the father be in danger? How do you want me to sit by and watch?" ignore?"

"...You, really." Feng Ze reluctantly let go, "There are too many people there, I can't go there, you should be more careful."

"Thank you heroes for your many rescues, Su Huang is very grateful." Su Huang waved at Feng Ze, and rushed towards Taiming Palace without looking back.

"Su Huan has already started to act." Feng Ze frowned slightly, "According to the days, they should arrive at Donghui. I hope everything goes well."

Feng Zefang was about to leave quietly, when he glanced out of the window, more than a dozen guards were ready to go, holding guns and rushing towards Tai Ming Hall.

"It's not good."

After hesitating for a while, Feng Ze followed the dozen or so attendants quietly.

In the burning Taiming Hall, the eunuchs and maids coming and going kept putting out the fire in the hall with buckets.Su Huang wandered anxiously outside the door, but never found the emperor's figure.

"I'll ask you again, are you sure the emperor is not inside?" In a panic, Su Huang grabbed an eunuch carrying water and asked sharply.

"...The slave doesn't know either, he just came here to help temporarily." The little eunuch said with a flustered expression.

"Let's go." Su Huang let go of his hand, looking at the crowd coming and going.Su Huang's eyes were reddened by the thick smoke blowing towards his face.

The sound of horseshoes came again and again, which once again set off a stormy sea in this restless night.

Su Huan jumped off the horse, holding a long sword in front of Su Huang.

"Brother, come..."

"According to the imperial father's orders, Su Huang, the crown prince of the East Palace, deliberately set fire to plot against the law. The evidence is conclusive. Someone has sealed off the East Palace and taken Su Huang to the prison for trial in Dali Temple!" ,cut!"

"Extremely absurd!" Su Huang replied sharply, "The eldest prince entered the Taiming Palace with a sharp weapon, and here he falsely preached an oracle to disturb people's hearts. What is your intention?"

"Father was rescued by me from the scene of fire, and he was seriously injured. How can I have time to talk nonsense with you now!" Su Huan raised his chin lightly, and sneered, "Come here, take the prince down for me!"
