Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

Mo Lingwei successfully won the first place and naturally won the colorful phoenix lantern.

But when Shen Ningning held the phoenix lantern and waited with everyone at the exit of the maze, she couldn't wait for Qi Xiuwei.

She couldn't help but ask everyone: "Which of you met Xiaowei just now? Why hasn't she come out yet?"

Everyone shook their heads and said they didn't see it.

Some people even asked: "Are you still trapped in there?"

"Probably not. It's already timed out. The two of us who are the shopkeepers came over just now and reminded us that it's time. She might have come out."

Shen Ningning frowned and looked around.

There were too many people in the market, and Qi Xiuwei didn't take any maid with her.

See the worry on Shen Ningning's face.

Mo Lingwei hesitated to speak several times.

In the end, he took the initiative to tell Shen Ningning: "I met her, but I didn't follow the same path as her."

When Shen Ningning heard this, she immediately said: "Let's wait for her together!"

They couldn't go back to the palace first and leave Qi Xiuwei here alone.

At this moment, the Ninth Prince and his party, who had been brought out long ago, came from the side.

They learned that Shen Ningning was waiting for Qi Xiuwei.

Mo Zhirou covered her lips and was a little surprised: "Didn't Miss Qi tell Her Highness the Princess? Just now we saw that she had left the maze and asked us to borrow a carriage to go back to the palace first."

Shen Ningning was stunned.

The Ninth Prince's faint brows revealed a tentative smile.

"I remember you and your cousin have a very good relationship, Fu Ning. Why, she didn't tell you and asked you to wait?"

Mo Zhirou shook her head and sighed: "Fortunately, the princess met us. Otherwise, if she had been waiting here, she would have missed the time to return to the palace. The emperor has said that we should all go back early and watch him give the Glazed Buddha to the head of the lantern. Award winner.”

Everyone had to go back after having fun, especially Shen Ningning.

Because it was announced to the public that the Glazed Buddha was blessed by her, she had to be present.

If she misses the time, the emperor may not punish her, but it is just a little bad.

Shen Ningning didn't care, she pursed her pink lips and looked at the Ninth Prince and his group with a cold face.

"Today is the Lantern Festival, and I don't want to argue with you."

She directly grabbed Mo Lingwei who was about to get angry next to her: "Brother, let's go back to the palace now to confirm whether Xiaowei has returned."

After all, the words of the Ninth Prince and Mo Zhirou are not trustworthy!

Mo Lingwei nodded, and the group of them took the carriage back to the palace.

Just when the guard came to report, it turned out that the winner of the lantern had already appeared, and he was about to let the person carry the lantern he made into the palace to receive the award.

As soon as Shen Ningning returned to the palace, she asked the palace officials.

"Have any of you seen Miss Qi's family?"

Everyone said they had seen her before: "Miss Qi came back not long ago. She seemed to be in a bad mood and went for a walk in the bamboo forest next to Zhaori Tower."

After the palace maid said this, Shen Ningning wanted to look for her.

"Shen Ningning." Mo Lingwei called her from behind.

The little girl turned back and blinked her round black eyes: "Huh?"

Mo Lingwei hesitated to speak, his narrow, dark eyes looked a little at a loss.

"I," he hesitated to say, but facing Shen Ningning's curious little face, he still confessed, "Maybe I provoked Qi Xiuwei."

Shen Ningning was stunned: "Are you cruel to her?"

Mo Lingwei shook his head and frowned: "It's not bad. When I talk to others, my tone is always the same. I just said a few words and asked her to leave first."

Except that it was caused by him, he really couldn't think of any other reason for Qi Xiuwei to leave early without saying a word.

But he also did this to avoid suspicion.

Qi Xiuwei couldn't be deeply affected by what he said, right?

But when she left, she clearly looked normal.

Seeing how much Shen Ningning cared about Qi Xiuwei, Mo Lingwei felt that it would be better for him to confess in advance.

This saves the little girl from finding out, and he can avoid a misunderstanding if he really caused it.

Shen Ningning's eyes were dark, but she didn't mean to blame him.

"Xiaowei is not such a fussy person. Maybe she has encountered something else. The recent oppression in her family has given her a headache."

After saying that, she took the initiative to hold Mo Lingwei's hand: "Brother, let's go and take a look. If it's really you who bullied her, then we can just talk it out."

Mo Lingwei was rebellious, but after meeting Shen Ningning, she did whatever she said.

This time he did not object and followed Shen Ningning to the direction of Zhaori Tower.

The other close friends also followed from behind.

Everyone was talking and laughing. At this moment, the Imperial Guards hurriedly ran in front, shouting——

"Quickly go and inform the Emperor that someone broke the Glazed Buddha in Zhaori Tower!"

Everyone was shocked.

The Glazed Buddha is a treasure kept by the emperor in the national temple.

If it weren't for the purpose of arousing the positive emotions of the people this time, I wouldn't have invited him out.

Who would go in and smash the Glazed Buddha that is enshrined in the Zhaori Pagoda? !

Shen Ningning sighed in her heart and felt bad.

"Let's go quickly, maybe Xiaowei is in trouble."

She trotted along.

When they arrived at the Zhaori Tower, they found that the Forbidden Army had surrounded it.

Commander Lu happened to be on duty in the palace today.

He looked at Qi Xiuwei, who looked pale and helpless, pursed his lips and said ruthlessly: "Miss Qi can't leave now. We'll make a decision after the emperor comes."

Shen Ningning raised her eyes and saw a hazy blue figure standing under the moonlight, slim and weak. Who else could it be if it wasn't Qi Xiuwei!

"Xiaowei!" She ran over quickly.

But the imperial guards blocked her outside.

Commander Lu took the initiative to explain: "Your Highness, please don't come close. Miss Qi broke the glass Buddha, and she is just waiting for the emperor to come."

Qi Xiuwei's face was pale, as if she had been frightened: "I didn't do this! When I went in, the glass Buddha was already broken!"

Commander Lu did not listen to these explanations and only said: "When the Emperor comes, Miss Qi will speak to the Emperor alone."

After a while, the emperor arrived with a group of people.

Tonight at the Lantern Festival, the emperor and his concubines were having a great time, including Concubine Qi.

Everyone had drunk a little wine, and their faces were flushed when they arrived, but the emperor's face had already turned cold.

Especially when the emperor saw Commander Lu holding the smashed glass Buddha in front of him.

His stern eyes turned to Qi Xiuwei.

"Why did you enter the Zhaori Tower?"

Qi Xiuwei was trembling all over: "My lord, my lord heard the cry of an eagle in Zhaori Tower and thought that an eagle was trapped."

The emperor narrowed his eyes and glanced at the Sun Tower.

"So you found the eagle?"

Qi Xiuwei shook her head and turned even paler.

She originally came here frustrated to relax, but because the bamboo forest was quiet and quiet, no one could notice her crying.

She just didn't want her embarrassment to be discovered by everyone.

But when she heard the cry of the eagle, she immediately thought of Meng Yi.

The cry was anxious and seemed to be accompanied by fluttering movements.

Strangely, there were no patrolling Imperial Guards passing by.

Qi Xiuwei had no choice but to go in by herself. She searched repeatedly but could not find the so-called eagle. Instead, she found that the Glazed Buddha had been broken and was on the ground.

Concubine Qi frowned at this time and said worriedly: "The commoner who won the first prize will go to the palace to receive the Glazed Buddha later. The Emperor has already said that, but if we can't get the Glazed Buddha, what will happen?" Win the trust of people all over the world."

As she said that, she looked at Qi Xiuwei, shook her head and sighed: "Weier, you are so reckless. By doing this, won't you make the emperor someone who everyone says does not keep his word?"

In one sentence, Qi Xiuwei's situation fell to the bottom. (End of chapter)
