With this, the lanterns in the little eunuchs' hands slipped away, pressing towards Xuanzhen.
Xuanzhen jumped into the courtyard, and one by one, the lanterns smashed to the ground inside the room.
She looked up, but Bai Li was not disappointed. Her eyes were only calm.
The candle flames in the lanterns quickly burned through the lantern paper and bamboo strips, spreading rapidly to the bed, igniting a raging fire. The flames swept up the windows, swiftly reducing the white paper windows to flying ashes, and fire soared into the sky above the Forbidden City.
The Divine Chief Eunuch shouted, "This is bad, she's making a spectacle of this event!"
Only then did Xuanzhen realize, Bai Li was not trying to kill her but to start a wildfire. Kunning Palace was very close, Yuan Jin would arrive in an instant upon seeing the flames!
