Chapter 2222: Chapter 2130: To Please His Wife, He Burned Down the House 2

Seeing her finally eat, the two palace maids breathed a sigh of relief.

After finishing the meal, Xia Weibao sat on the stone chair in the courtyard, staring blankly at the sky.

She discovered that the palace was really boring; aside from eating and sleeping, she couldn’t find anything to do.

There wasn’t even anyone to talk to.

"Miss, should we accompany you for a walk?" The palace maid was worried she’d get bored from silence.

Xia Weibao was restless by nature and immediately wanted to get up, but remembered what happened that morning, she decided against it.

If someone without eyes bumped into her, and she couldn’t hold back another fight, it would trouble Lu Hualiang.

"No, let’s not go."

"Miss, there are flower lanterns in the Imperial Garden in the evening, they’re very beautiful. Don’t you want to take a look?"

Hearing about the flower lanterns, she was a bit tempted, but eventually sat back down.

"No, the Imperial Garden is crowded, I’m afraid of getting into another fight."

Palace maid, "..."

"Don’t worry, His Majesty has ordered that besides you, other Concubines are not allowed to step foot into the Imperial Garden. If you don’t want to go to the garden, there are other fun places in the palace. Would you like to have a look?"

Xia Weibao was taken aback, "Others aren’t allowed in? Why."

"He’s afraid others might collide with you, His Majesty is very good to you."

Xia Weibao stood up, "Then let’s go have a look."

She liked flower lanterns.

When arriving at the Imperial Garden, she unexpectedly found Lu Hualiang there as well, looking at the lanterns. Upon hearing footsteps behind him, he turned around.

His eyes lit up with joy, "Baby, what a coincidence."

Xia Weibao, "..."

Suspiciously glanced at the palace maid behind her, then at Lu Hualiang standing by the lake.

Was it really a coincidence? Why did it feel like a setup?

Lu Hualiang had such thick skin; no matter how she scrutinized him, his face remained unchanged and his heart didn’t skip a beat.

Seeing this, Xia Weibao almost believed it. Was it really a coincidence?

"Why are you here?"

"To see the flower lanterns."

"Aren’t you very busy? How do you have time to see lanterns?"

Lu Hualiang smiled bitterly, even if there was no time, he had to squeeze some out; hasn’t quite managed to win over the wife yet.

Obviously, Xia Weibao had no plan to forgive him so soon and turned to leave, "Well, take your time watching."

Lu Hualiang got anxious, "You’re not watching?"

Xia Weibao smirked, "When did I ever say I came to see the lanterns?"

So you’re saying this wasn’t planned all along!

Lu Hualiang’s face stiffened, thinking that he had let it slip.

But then, he wasn’t just anyone, his cheek wasn’t just thick but practically bulletproof!

Even when exposed, he wasn’t annoyed, instead remaining calm and saying, "I guessed. Coming to the Imperial Garden at night, if not to see the lanterns, then are you here to see the flowers?"

Could you even see them?

Xia Weibao rolled her eyes, not wanting to deal with him.

Just as she turned around, she noticed thick smoke billowing from a corner of the Imperial Garden, with sparks constantly shooting into the sky.

Soon, chaos ensued from that direction.

"There’s a fire, quickly someone, there’s a fire."

"Panlong Hall is on fire, help extinguish it..."

"Someone, there’s a fire..."

Amid the chaos, Eunuch Yang hurriedly rushed over, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened, Panlong Hall is on fire."

Lu Hualiang’s expression darkened, "What happened!"

"Recently, the weather has been dry, and the wind blew over a lamp, causing the fire."

"To put out the fire quickly!" Lu Hualiang said angrily.

He turned to glance at Xia Weibao, "Baby, I’ve got to go back and check on things."

Then he hurriedly left.

With such a major incident, Xia Weibao became worried and lost all interest in the flower lanterns.

Wanting to follow and see herself, she was stopped.
