Early in the morning, before daybreak, the concubine could no longer wait.
Thinking that her daughter and son had not been found yet, she tossed and turned in bed, too anxious to sleep.
After waiting for a long time until dawn, she immediately got up, woke up Mu Qingyun, and went to the Imperial Master's Mansion together.
In the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, the Imperial Preceptor had just gotten up when he heard a servant come to report that the late concubine was coming.
He quickly washed up and received Wan Fei and Mu Qingyun.
After Wan Fei and Mu Qingyun sat down, the servants brought them a cup of hot tea.
After a while, the national teacher appeared.
"I'm sorry to have kept Her Majesty and His Highness waiting for so long." The Imperial Master bowed.
Seeing that Concubine Wan looked worried, he took the initiative to ask, "What is the important matter that brought you here, Your Majesty and Your Highness?"
The concubine seemed to be still in shock. Mu Qingyun glanced at her and replied, "Master, Yan'er and Chen'er are missing. Mother suspects that Concubine Jin has taken them away."
"Also, I don't know why, but my father has been controlled by Concubine Jin, and now his behavior is different from usual."
Although he did not see his father's condition with his own eyes, judging from his mother's description, it was probably not good.
Hearing his description, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the national teacher.
This matter seems very strange. It is impossible for a small concubine to have such great ability.
He couldn't tell anything from just a simple description.
"I know, but the specific details will have to wait until I meet the emperor." The imperial preceptor stroked his beard and explained.
Everyone just got up and prepared to return to the palace.
At this moment, a thousand paper cranes flew in from the window.
Everyone stopped and looked at the thousand paper cranes.
Mu Qingyun was surprised for a second, then said, "Isn't this Yan'er's paper crane? Let's see what's written on it."
He took the paper off the crane's leg and spread it out.
There was a message on the paper: Mother, my sixth brother and I are out. I will tell you the details when I come back. Mu Nanyan, please stay.
Wan Fei and Mu Qingyun looked at each other, and the joy in their eyes could not be contained.
Wan Fei showed a long-lost smile on her face, "Yun'er, they are finally back."
So, everyone didn't stop and went straight to the palace.
Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from Yuehua Palace.
"Oh no! There's a fire in the queen's bedroom. Come quickly." The maid of Yuehua Palace just got up and saw that Concubine Jin's bedroom was on fire.
When the fire first began to spread, the palace maids and eunuchs took buckets of water to put out the fire.
However, the fire spread very quickly, and even using water to put it out was a drop in the bucket.
The nanny knew that Concubine Jin had gone to Emperor Hui's bedroom last night, and quickly told her about the fire.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, sunlight shines through the windows into the hall.
Emperor Hui was still sleeping, and Concubine Jin had just woken up and was waiting for Emperor Hui to wake up.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the maid from Yuehua Palace has something to report." Eunuch Wang stood outside the door and spoke respectfully.
It's strange. Normally, the emperor should have been in court by this time.
Although Eunuch Wang was somewhat puzzled, he did not dare to urge Emperor Hui.
But he heard from the nanny that she had something important to tell him, and he was afraid of delaying things, so he had to come here.
Disturbed by the noise, Emperor Hui suddenly opened his eyes.
The wooden eyes were fixed on one place, and Concubine Jin knew that Emperor Hui had not yet woken up.
"What are you arguing about?" Jin Fei's delicate eyebrows were tinged with anger, and her tone revealed displeasure.
The palace maids and eunuchs waiting outside the door didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of being blamed by Concubine Jin.
After Concubine Jin felt better, she asked someone to come in and serve her.
Concubine Jin had just finished washing up when she remembered that someone was looking for her. "Who was looking for me just now?"
The nanny didn't show it on her face, but she was extremely anxious. When she saw Concubine Jin asking her a question, she knelt down immediately.
"Your Majesty, your chamber is on fire, but don't worry, the maids are putting out the fire."
Concubine Jin was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted. She walked over to the nanny and slapped her in the face. "Idiot, why did you tell me now?"
When she thought of the painting hanging in her bedroom, Concubine Jin almost lost her balance.
The medicine given by the monster had no effect, and her work was not yet completed. What should she do if the emperor became like this forever?
After trying to calm down, she said to the nanny, "Let's hurry back."
After about a moment's time, Concubine Jin finally returned to Yuehua Palace.
The fire hadn't been put out yet, and it was swooping down like a giant dragon, with bright flashes of fire and a strong smell of smoke filling the air.
“Your Majesty, look at this…” When the palace maid saw Concubine Jin’s gloomy face, her legs went weak and she dared not look her in the eyes.
Concubine Jin pushed the maid away and said coldly, "Get out of the way."
Seeing Concubine Jin continue to walk inside, the nanny quickly stopped her: "Madam, it's too dangerous there, don't go."
"Come and save me." A voice sounded in Jinfei's ears, and she walked towards the voice and gradually into the fire.
No matter how the nanny called out, Concubine Jin seemed not to hear her shouting and rushed in directly, trying to rescue the painting.
When the nanny found out, Concubine Jin was nowhere to be seen.
Mammy staggered a step, unable to believe what was happening before her eyes, and cried bitterly: "Madam, why didn't you listen to my advice?"
Although Concubine Jin blamed her just now, Nanny didn't take it to heart. She just wanted Concubine Jin to survive.
However, the fire grew bigger and bigger, until it could not be put out.
The fire burned for an hour, leaving only some unburned debris.
An hour had passed when Mu Nanyan received the news.
"What? Concubine Jin was burned to death in the fire?" Mu Nanyan's pupils trembled slightly, and she was extremely surprised.
