The fire was so big that there was nothing they could do, it really burned the entire building to the ground, the blazing fire surrounded it on all sides, even the gods could not have saved her.
At dawn, nothing was left but ashes scattering in the air.
Zhao Zhi coughed a few times. He swallowed back the blood in his throat. The sun fell on his lifeless, somber face, making his skin appear even whiter.
He felt like he was having a nightmare, a nightmare that he couldn’t wake up from.
Snapping back to his senses, he raised his head and looked at them expressionlessly, “How did the fire start?”
Chapter 161
(57.4)
“This servant doesn’t know either.”
The intendant really couldn’t figure out how a fire could start out of nowhere. Unless someone had deliberately lit the fire.
But who hated miss Ming Zhu so much? Who would hate miss Ming Zhu so much that they would go to such lengths to kill her?
He thought about it over and over but couldn’t think of such a person, until just now, he suddenly understood.
Back then ……
Back then, the miss had been forcibly brought here by the crown prince. The crown prince was also the one, using mind tricks, who made her fall pregnant.
The miss was weak and easy to bully, but her temperament was also a bit stubborn. Her playing with fire wasn’t unlikely.
This speculation, the intendant did not dare to say it aloud. The crown prince certainly wouldn’t be able to stand it.
Zhao Zhi also thought of this possibility. His forehead was breaking out in cold sweat, his fingers were also cold like ice, like he had been thrown by people into the coldest place on earth.
She had committed suicide herself, had she not?
She would rather die along with the child than stay by his side.
Zhao Zhi did not want to believe this speculation, his Zhu Zhu was so beautiful a girl. She was a little lady who was so afraid of pain, how could she be so ruthless to herself? He would definitely find out the person who lit the fire.
Zhao Zhi’s entire body froze, and he stood still for a long time, he said: “Zhu Zhu would not die. No one is allowed to cry.”
He was like an obstinate sick person, “If anyone dares to cry, I will cut off their tongue.”
After saying these words, the intendant saw bright red blood spilling out of the corner of the crown prince’s mouth.
A large mouthful of blood, like he was wounded down to his heart strings, like a pain coming from the depths of his heart.
The intendant at this moment would not dare to take out the remains he had found from the ruins before and hand them over to the crown prince.
(58.1)
The intendant, in his advanced age, had never seen a fire as vigorous as last night’s. The fire had razed everything in its path and even miss Ming Zhu’s body did not come in one part, there were only a few pieces of burnt remains left and it was unclear whether it was her, and which part of her that was.
He could not even bear to look at it. He carefully put the remains in a coffin. At this moment, he absolutely did not dare to take those out, but sooner or later, he would have to take them out.
Zhao Zhi swallowed back the blood in his throat, the expression on his face still looked pale and cold, but he was calm as if he had not been affected at all. His throat was clearly painful to the point of being almost unable to speak, but he looked as composed as usual, his pair of red eyes coldly looked at the intendant, his voice was like a knife as he asked: “What about her personal maid?”
The intendant hurriedly replied, “People rescued her last night, Biying was sleeping in the side room, in the beginning the fire had not reached the side room yet, she was lucky to stay alive.”
Zhao Zhi said, “Bring her here.”
The intendant hastily ordered someone to bring Biying over. She, who was always calm, now was a crying mess. Her eyes were swollen from crying and her throat also was hoarse.
She knelt on the ground. Her tears covered her whole face.
Zhao Zhi felt that she was being too noisy, and looked at her with apathetic eyes, he wanted to cut her tongue out right this instant, but it was not possible, he still had something to ask.
“Where is she?”
Biying wiped off her tears, and suppressed the sorrowful sobs in her throat. It was unsure whether it was because the morning wind was too cold or because she was terrified, but her entire body was shaking, and she choked as she tried to speak : “The miss ……the miss …… ”
Zhao Zhi took a step forward, “Speak properly.”
“The miss went to bed early last night.”
Women who were pregnant all craved sleep, during this half month, miss Ming Zhu would put out the candle lights and go to sleep not long after the evening meal.
Last night she also was sleeping very deeply, and she did not even notice that there was a fire, it was only when someone woke her up from her bed, that she saw that the room besides hers was already burning down to the ground.
She cried and tried to jump in to save the miss, but she was dragged back. The burning beams of the room kept crashing down, blocking their way.
Zhao Zhi slightly frowned, his eyes showed some puzzlement, “I’m asking you, where is she?”
Biying was shivering from his coldness, the words that the crown prince spat out were like several cold sharp knives, hanging over her head right now, and it was unsure when they would fall down.
She silently shed tears, unable to answer him anything.
Zhao Zhi closed his eyes, as he said: “She wouldn’t be so stupid, pain is what she is most afraid of.”
Having one’s body burning down, how painful that was ah.
She wouldn’t be able to endure this kind of suffering, she was also smart, she had definitely escaped and got out in advance, without anyone knowing about it.
It was definitely like this.
Zhao Zhi said, “You all go and search carefully, she is definitely hiding somewhere.”
Biying felt that the crown prince was becoming a little crazy.
The intendant came forward and asked, “Your Highness, this courtyard ……”
Zhao Zhi calmly swallowed his saliva, it almost seemed like his eyes did not dare to look back, his ice-cold face turned tense, “Reconstruct it again.”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
The fire was so big that there was nothing they could do, it really burned the entire building to the ground, the blazing fire surrounded it on all sides, even the gods could not have saved her.
At dawn, nothing was left but ashes scattering in the air.
