The emperor had no time to scold him. He walked out of the hall quickly without even having time to put on his shoes. This was the first time in his life that the emperor was so panicked. Even when he came to power, he had never lost his composure like this.
This is enough to show how much he cares about Xu's baby.
But such an accident happened just when she was about to give birth.
When the emperor arrived, the empress dowager also received the news.
The Queen Mother's lips trembled, she was unable to speak, and she fell down.
“Empress Dowager!!”
"Go call the doctor!"
The emperor looked at the raging fire burning in Xu Lingyi's palace. For the first time, his anger was difficult to control, and despair spread from the bottom of his heart.
He is nearly forty years old and has finally had a child. Is he going to lose him now?
"Everyone, go put out the fire. Come here! If you can't save Concubine De, you won't have to live!"
Xu Lingyi covered her mouth and nose. Perhaps the amulet on her body worked. There seemed to be a barrier around her and she was not affected too much.
But her big belly made it very inconvenient for her to move.
She hugged Madam Xu and protected her under her body, and the amulet also had some effect on Madam Xu.
Xu Lingyi covered Madam Xu's mouth and nose with a handkerchief and said, "Mother, I'll take you to the door. Please get out now."
Madam Xu grabbed her hand and said, "Come out with me! How could you stay in there with such a big fire? Are you crazy?!"
Xu Lingyi held her hand and soothed Madam Xu. "Mother, look, this fire won't have much of an impact on your daughter. Don't worry. I know who did it. If I could be rescued so easily, how much punishment would the person behind it receive?"
Mrs. Xu was so flustered just now that she didn't pay attention to the environment around her. Now she realized that the fire and smoke around her and her daughter seemed extremely small. Even a pillar that collapsed towards them did not fall on their heads.
Although Mrs. Xu couldn't believe such a fantastic thing, she understood that this might be her daughter's opportunity.
She knew that Xu Lingyi was a man of strong opinions and would not change his mind easily.
So Mrs. Xu finally agreed with tears in her eyes.
When Madam Xu was sent to the door, the palace servants who came to put out the fire soon discovered her.
Seeing her mother go out safely, Xu Lingyi hid in the corner.
She would wait a little longer, until the people outside were desperate, and then she would go out.
She wanted the emperor to remember this unforgettable feeling.
Princess Minghua must be truly punished, instead of being protected and condoned just because she is the emperor's daughter.
