Chapter 151 Retaliation(1/2)
There was a cold wind outside, and the palace lanterns swayed under the eaves of the Funing Palace Master Hall. The orange-yellow lights were a little soft and drunken, making the palace maids and eunuchs outside the hall drowsy.
Suddenly, the swaying palace lanterns at the gate of the main hall caught fire and burned.
In the blink of an eye, the fire spread throughout the row of palace lanterns, and instantly swallowed it up. The tongue of fire greedily spread through the doors and windows of the main hall and towards the hall.
The hot waves of fire made the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting at the door react. Due to their instinctive desire to survive, they fled to the distance without caring about it, completely forgot about Queen Shen in the hall.
In the inner room of the main hall, Queen Shen, who was closing her eyes and enjoying Madam Zheng's head, did not notice any strangeness outside.
"It's gone..."
"It's time to leave, come quickly..."
"Come on..."
"It's gone;"
Suddenly, the panic shouts outside made the sleepy Queen Chen open her eyes, immediately get up and wave Mama Zheng away and look out.
Even Mama Zheng was so scared by the shout that she was so scared that she was weak and her legs and feet became weak.
"Paila..."
In a panic, Madam Zheng knocked over the ginseng soup she had taken for Queen Chen, but she didn't care about it at this time.
"It's time to leave... Come quickly..."
"Here's someone... I'm leaving..."
I could hear the chaotic shouts outside, but the inner room and the outer room were a distance away, and Queen Chen did not see the fire, so naturally thought it was not a big deal.
Just as this thought fell, waves of fire rushed from the doors and windows of the outer room, and spread unscrupulously in the blink of an eye.
Queen Chen was panicked!
Madam Zheng was also scared!
"Empress, I'm leaving..."
Madam Zheng held Queen Chen and screamed in panic.
"Go away--"
Queen Chen said hurriedly and ran towards the outer room. She saw that the doors and windows of the outer room were flooded with fire waves, and they had no way to escape.
So Madam Zheng had to support her, and Queen Chen, who was already scared, retreated inside.
Queen Chen, who was pale and weak, had never seen such a scene?
At this time, he was so scared that he was unable to think normally. He grabbed Mama Zheng's arm with one hand and let her drag it back.
Madam Zheng's arm was so painful that it hurt, but she didn't care about it. She kept dragging Queen Shen in and looked out.
The two were frightened and forgot to call for help.
"Empress..."
"The fire is in..."
"What should we do?"
"Empress..."
Madam Zheng, who was pulling Queen Chen to hide in the innermost corner of the inner room, couldn't help crying anymore.
"Call someone..."
"Call them to save me..."
"Call them in and save me..."
Queen Chen, who tried hard to open her mouth before making a sound, grabbed Madam Zheng's arm and trembled.
"Yes, call someone... call someone..."
Madam Zheng was so scared that she was weak and collapsed in the corner of the wall. At this time, she was even more struggling to get up, but she kept muttering Queen Chen's words.
But when she looked up at the spreading waves of fire, she didn't dare to delay any more, so she shouted outside.
"Here are people..."
"Help……"
"The Empress is here..."
"Come on..."
Mama Zheng's voice was trembling and weak, and her penetration was limited, which made Queen Chen panic.
"Come, come quickly..."
"Save me..."
"People come to save me and go out..."
At this time, Queen Chen no longer cared about it and shouted with all her strength.
However, after she shouted, she found that no one answered or came to save her!
Even the noisy yard just now seemed to be quiet!
She was like she was forgotten and no one paid attention to it!
Queen Chen watched the raging fire spread rapidly, and could only shrank in the corner of the wall and shivered.
As the fire grew stronger, the smoke became stronger and the burning sensation became stronger, and Queen Chen became more and more frightened.
She didn't know what was going on outside, and no one came to save them!
"Help……"
"Someone comes to save me!"
"Come, save me and go out..."
"Help...hehe..."
Seeing that the fire waves had burned to the seat she had sat in before, Queen Chen was panicked and even felt that death was approaching step by step.
Unwilling, fearful, helpless...
For a moment, all the emotions were flooded with the thick smoke, making her feel difficult even to take a breath.
And Madam Zheng was already leaning against the wall and unable to speak!
Queen Chen's eyes were desperate and unwilling, staring straight out of the window swallowed by the flames, hoping that someone would come to save her.
But apart from the hot fire waves and thick smoke, the only thing she could hear was the "crackling" sound of the fire waves burning and the cheering of the cold wind outside!
No one shouted!
No one will save you!
She was really forgotten!
It is really ridiculous that the Empress of the Great Jokhang Kingdom was forgotten in the fire and left unattended!
Queen Chen's body was close to the wall, leaning against the only little air in her lungs to keep awake.
But she is unwilling to accept it!
He grabbed Mama Zheng with one hand, but grabbed Mama Zheng with the other hand, as if he was trying to grab a door to escape!
She didn't react to the five fingernails being pulled off and still scratched them hard.
The five-finger blood stains on the wall were covered with the wall touching the wall from top to bottom, from left to right, looking gloomy and terrifying.
Queen Chen has no time to think about how this fire broke out!
I don’t have time to think about why no one came to save her!
When she was still awake, she turned around stiffly and looked back.
The greedy fire waves were only about two feet away from her, and they would come over in the blink of an eye.
Think of your coming-of-age son;
young daughter;
Her Queen’s Rights;
A glorious future...
Everything made her reluctant to leave, but what could it be?
She turned around in despair, her face only against the wall, hoping to die more decent!
The air inside her body became thinner and thinner, and the thick smoke she breathed in made her lungs hurt. She shed tears and waited to be swallowed by the fire.
Just sticking to the wall, letting water stains flow out from the lower body, Queen Shen waited quietly!
But when she was about to faint, Queen Chen realized the abnormality.
She mustered up the courage to turn her head and look behind her again. Seeing that the fire that had just spread had already been extinguished, only bursts of blue smoke swaying and floating.
To be continued...
