Chapter 143 Rolling Curtain 6

I turned around in a surprised way. The bodyguard outside Tang Li Pavilion quickly closed the door from the outside, and one of them hurried to report. Women's screams kept coming from the red door, which made the people outside creepy. Zhou Cairen's glance came back in my mind. I couldn't help shivering. The Qinger beside me touched me gently, and I was even more shocked. She helped me back to Deqing Palace. On the way, I saw many bodyguards running to Tangli Pavilion, and the imperial doctor Tian of the Pharmacy Bureau was also rushing to that end. The scream of Tang Li Pavilion swung in my ear again, and I shook my head and pulled Qing'er to tell me to come back quickly.

Later, as soon as Li Shimin entered the door, he pulled me left and right to look at it: "I heard that Zhou Cairen hurt you, but where did you hurt?"

I shook my head and asked him, "I'm fine. It's Zhou Cairen, what's going on?

Li Shimin looked at me with a slight relief and spit out three words: "She is crazy."

Looking at his light-heartedness about Zhou Cairen, I couldn't help asking: "Zhou Cairen is also quite thoughtful. How can he go crazy all of a sudden? Does the emperor know one or two of them?

Li Shimin turned around and sat on the chair: "The maid of honor in Xinran Hall said that Zhou Cairen wanted to kill Wei Zhaorong." He definitely looked at me and asked, "Do you think what she said when she went crazy is true or false?"

I pondered a little and said slowly as I thought, "If it's true, then Mu Zhaoyuan was framed. At this moment, the real owner should be Zhou Cairen. If it's fake, it's just her crazy words?" But at that time, Zhou Cairen told me to live a peaceful day, and then he suddenly went crazy, which was really strange.

However, Li Shimin said, "Doctor Tian Shi said that Zhou Cairen may not be able to withstand psychological pressure, so he drove himself crazy. It seems that she did nine times out of ten about the assassination of Wei Zhaorong.

But before Zhou Cairen went crazy, I didn't see where she was depressed. Her words and deeds seemed to be closer to sizing everything. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would not have believed that she was so crazy. And the fact is in front of him, and Zhou Cairen is already crazy. I remember that the night before Weinizi was assassinated, some people said that Zhou Cairen had found Wenyzi, and what happened later seemed to fit so closely. Zhou Cairen sent an assassin to kill Weniczi, but he could not bear the pressure and seemed to be true.

Night has come, and Li Shimin sent people to bring the unfinished memorials in the day to Deqing Palace. He stood in front of the window thinking, and I made ink and paper for him. Heimo was good. I was about to call him when a eunuch rushed to the door. Before he could be lucky, he jumped to the ground and shouted in panic: "Your Majesty, Tangli Pavilion is on fire!"

The ink strip in his hand shook and dipped a line of black ink. Li Shimin stepped down in shock and rushed to Tang Li Pavilion without saying a word. I also put down the ink strips in my hand and quickly followed. From afar, I saw the fire on the Tang Li Pavilion. There was a long line of palace people on the palace road, who were quickly handing water back and forth to put out the fire.

"The fire is too fierce. Don't get close to the emperor and the Empress!" Dozens of steps away from Tangli Pavilion, a bodyguard stopped me and Li Shimin urgently.

I looked at the fire in front of me, and the blazing fire seemed to fly more than ten meters high on the roof like crazy. The night was slightly red, and the rising flames rushed wildly with the wind and devoured everything unscrupulously. The thick smoke rolled from the high wall, and the palace gate could only splash water in front of the door. The fire in the hall was particularly red, filling the whole room without gaps. A maid escaped from the yard outside the hall, her hair and clothes were burned, and **'s skin was hot black and red. Another maid escaped from it and kowtowed desperately to Li Shimin. I looked at the firelight and asked anxiously, "Where are you Zhou Cairen?"

The maid's voice was hoarse by smoke, tearing her voice and kept crying: "I don't know, I don't know!"

Since there are still people who can come out of it, there should be a glimmer of hope. I pulled Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, please save Zhou Cairen!"

Li Shimin hugged the black smoke that I fanned with my sleeve and said, "What I can take out from inside is people who have a desire to live, and those who enter from the outside may not be willing. The fire is so great that if she wants to give birth, she will do everything she can to get out; and if I send someone, I'm afraid it will add a few lives!"

Li Shimin took me under the big tree farther away and watched the palace people shuttle back and forth in the black smoke fire with water. My thoughts were messy, and I was suddenly afraid because of Li Shimin's words just now. I quietly turned my eyes to him and asked after a long time, "Has the emperor concluded that the assassination of Wei Zhaorong was done by Zhou Cairen?"

Li Shimin turned his eyes and looked at me and asked with interest, "What do you say?"

I was slightly stunned and said seriously, "Otherwise, why did the emperor behave so calmly in this fire?" The emperor concluded that he was an assassin of Zhou Cairen, but that was Zhou Cairen's crazy words, and he could not tame the court minister or Zhou Cairen's family, so this fire helped you. The emperor had long wanted to get rid of Zhou Cairen?

Li Shimin bowed his head and smiled: "Xi Ran, sometimes being smart is not a good thing. But you are only half right." He gently stroked my hair, but said chilling words: "At the beginning, I was kind to Zhou Cairen, but I just appreciated her chess skills. However, her family ran rampant in the court. When I knew what Zhou Cairen said after he was crazy, I had a reason to remove her, but in that case, the reason could not tame the court minister and her family, and this fire really helped me.

I was stunned and held his long sleeve tightly with both hands: "If Zhou Cairen is just talking crazy, the person who sent the assassin is not her, wouldn't the emperor kill his life by mistake?"

His voice was as cold as iron: "The mastermind can continue to arrest, but the matter in the middle of the court can no longer be delayed!"

I was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly: "What the emperor said... is very true."

I'm afraid the fire on that side was dazzling. My eyes were sour and I closed my wet eyes. Feeling that he gently hugged my shoulder, my eyelids trembled, and I finally opened my eyes to look at him. After a long time, I sighed and leaned against his arm, and there were many words in my stomach, but I couldn't say anything.

"Ah!" Tangli Pavilion, which had become a sea of fire, suddenly screamed, and the palace people who put out the fire were also stunned at that time. I won't let you go. I'm going to turn into a fierce ghost to pester you!" It was very like Zhou Cairen's voice. This roar suddenly messed up the palace people and dared not approach Tangli Pavilion for a moment. I couldn't help trembling because of her roar and stepped my ears into Li Shimin's arms. Li Shimin hugged me tightly, gently patted my back to comfort me, and looked deeply at the turbulent sea of fire.

"I won't let you go. I'm going to turn into a fierce ghost to pester you!"

Who does this refer to, Venizi? Is it me? Or Li Shimin? Or who?

The evening breeze has a burning smell, which can't help but make people feel creepy. It seems to take Zhou Cairen's breath. I don't know when I was held in Li Shimin's arms and left Tangli Pavilion to return to Deqing Palace. He put me on the couch, tweaked the bedding, and asked people to lift the table to criticize the memorial by the bed. Without saying a word, it seemed that nothing had happened.

I stared at this back. He was working for state affairs. How could he care about a fire? How could he care about a woman who was about to die? I seem to be trapped in a quagmire, getting deeper and deeper, which is the depth I never thought of, and also the depth I dare not think of. One day, this quagmire will drown everything I have, and maybe I still can't find its true depth at the moment of death.

Until the morning of the second day, the fire burned the whole Tangli Pavilion, and finally gradually extinguished the momentum of last night, and the palace people finally put out the fire completely. The originally elegant and chic Tang Li Pavilion burned into gray carbon overnight. The eunuch found several bodies charred into black bones in this large gray carbon, among which one was Zhou Cairen. Li Shimin announced that Zhou Cairen died in a fire in Tangli Pavilion. The minister of the court expressed regret that the Zhou family will mourn for three days from now on. Also on the same night, the assassin locked in the prison died suddenly, with no superficial scars on his body. The specific cause of death was still under investigation, so the assassination was interrupted and Muyan was released from prison.

A fire changed the fate of so many people, and I began to think about who contributed to the change of this night. The people in the harem are immersed in the world of intrigue and intrigue all day long, but they don't know that the people in the Golden Hall have insight into everything and don't lose time to turn the world around. It can't be said who he took advantage of, because he is the one who holds the victory or defeat of others, and in the end, only he can win the final victory.

I began to be glad that I didn't have a family background, otherwise, I would have become a pawn in his hand. However, the person I love deeply has such an unpredictable scheming, which still scares me from the bottom of my heart. It is said that the harem is not allowed to engage in politics. In fact, the harem has been involved in politics, and most of the women in the position are people with family background. Li Shimin can thus win over the relationship between North Korea and China, and thus weaken the power of the North Korea. Every move of the harem can guide Li Shimin's decision, and Li Shimin's decision can also affect every move of the harem. The two are related, and the harem is actually inseparable from the government.

That's it. It was already June, and Wenizi had already recovered. Since Zhou Cairen's death, she has not won anyone else. I'm afraid that she will panic and repeat it. Yan Jingwen's abdomen has been round, and Mu Yan has been with her for a long time. The relationship between the two is closer than before. Sometimes when I meet them, I can only hide my envy and say a few polite words to them, but this polite words are really uncomfortable and always make me uncomfortable. The best around me are Nian'er and Qing'er, and Song Yi. Fortunately, they don't belong to the harem, otherwise how lonely I would be.

The third day of June is the day Li Shimin agreed to shoot. The night before, Li You happily called someone to clean up his belongings and took the jade bow given to him by Li Shimin and put on the archery posture taught by Xue Dading, which was a little imposing.

The next morning, after I repeatedly told them to be careful, Li You and his brothers got into the carriage and waited to leave. I stood on the square of Chengtianmen, facing the cool breeze. Immediately, Li Shimin smiled and nodded to me, as if to reassure me. I also laughed back in time and saw him take the hunting imperial army and slowly drive out of Chengtian Gate.
