一名軍士飛奔來報，「統領，火勢太大，殿內藏有大量黑火藥，本就不易撲滅，火乘風勢，恐會蔓延到清寧宮及三大殿。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FHfWGQ0MW
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bDlP1szdE
「即刻帶人到軍械庫去取洪武大砲。」朱玹道。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wr4td6Bmw
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vUPtxUfut
「慢著！」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJwSwpVTIV
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGRiQUPIYe
閃爍的火光，映照萬貴妃扭曲的面容。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrNSiVI45d
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnPjbzqgqC
「原來，皇叔也受了這賤婢的蠱惑。」萬貴妃笑得狠戾，「怪不得本宮弄不死她。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx3q22Ic9K
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTG9lPt0kf
朱玹前行一步，將湖衣擋在身後，「貴妃先於宮中縱火，阻擋禁軍救災在後，違反宮禁，請貴妃回宮，靜待皇上裁示。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRW2yDlvOo
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7chyd2SLm
「本宮便是違反宮規，皇叔又待如何？」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJzLvTCZFa
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSm2MGos75
「速請貴妃回宮。」朱玹大喝。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUZlKEb4QG
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LMY1FCPyK
兩名禁軍上前，向萬貴妃行了一禮，作勢要她回宮。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfp3TbqhMiF
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPbDQmkbDk
萬貴妃昂首大笑，「就憑你們，有甚麼資格命令本宮？」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUquGRVt2Cx
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEOQ4C7Hg7
湖衣推離朱玹的懷抱，迎上萬貴妃尖厲的目光， 314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSEKfKZbPU
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4L9mE3kut
「本朝自太祖立國，祖宗家法，后妃居宮中，不預一髮之政，太祖以下外戚皆循理謹度，無敢恃寵以病民――」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc7YDCOzea
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAeeWHsg3M
她宛如凝固般僵立在原地，一朵餘燼擦過她的臉龐，不知是誰的骨灰。她的眼淚早已流乾，痛覺也已麻木。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kvs5QCFPj
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DvxwK9QU1
「貴妃身受皇恩，卻迫害后宮嬪妃，滅絕皇嗣，母族權傾朝野，卻振威福之勢，迫害地方，違背祖制。自古福禍相倚，物極必反，福滿禍生，外戚干政，大者夷滅，小者放流，難得善終。史蹟殷鑑不遠。貴妃且好自為之。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRyqwhKfvI
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpup0I066X
這番話激得萬貴妃殺心再起，神色愈發怨毒，她咬牙切齒地對汪直說：「今日無論如何，本宮都要將她活剮。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHLlhm1Ren
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchv51Uwy8T
「是，奴婢明白，」汪直在她身後答道，「娘娘且先回宮，這裡煙大，別嗆著了。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKQ2j0zCiB
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDopJu6oV0g
萬貴妃惡狠狠地啐了一口，一甩衣袖，轉頭即去。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMdG2khZW4
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIuxUgprJ7
湖衣緊咬嘴脣，看向汪直，萬氏權勢滔天，她有如蚍蜉，即使拚盡全力也無法與之抗衡，但她絕不逃跑，她會正面迎敵，以及可預料的後果。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKWSujfF5j
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQs0Eo8HtS
汪直目不轉睛地回望她，時而露出詭異至極的笑容。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgpXy6ikTq
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4UIh4JFMg
一陣步伐聲響起，禁軍運來洪武大砲，六門火砲在朱玹背後依序排開。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfNvcKxQE7
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteEkvy7Bwi
「王爺……」見著此景，湖衣心下茫然。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2bvI92fCx
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0Da4PmnAJ
朱玹知道她在想甚麼，「火勢太過猛烈，唯有對宮殿開炮使其陷落，阻斷火源，才不會延燒到太后的清寧宮和三大殿。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUPwTgYY7T
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2hpc0ZrsI
想到自己居住許久的宮殿將被夷平，湖衣一時無言以對。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcLbffTaOL
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOayeOpX2YN
興許是臨別才覺得不捨，咸若宮沉靜如江南女子，單簷廡殿頂，金色琉璃瓦，悄悄佇立在庭園一隅，不與坤寧宮爭輝，兀自美麗。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMOXyyconC
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKZkF7Xq1v
某處砰然一聲，琉璃瓦片紛紛崩落，像是宮殿在流淚。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4eCKIRoc6
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA8FwXqycV
「王爺，」汪直躬身一揖，「貴妃統領六宮，此女觸怒貴妃，犯上欺主，還請王爺放人，貴妃還等著小的回去覆命呢。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XRAoeGw0o
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgZD0bymtV
汪直生著一張倒三角臉，眼帶桃花，上揚的嘴角看似無時無刻都帶著笑，但他的笑意裡，卻暗藏刀鋒。湖衣從未見過如此令人不寒而慄的笑顏。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKYUolxRps
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcC9NCZrqB
「若本王說不呢？」朱玹厲聲說。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJR1i3g3fY
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKG9lxTCeA
朱玹與湖衣一同直視汪直，三人就這麼僵持半晌。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMg1l8r5lBk
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aa6T6EfPH
最後，汪直詭魅一笑，看向朱玹身後的宮中禁衛軍與神機營親兵，再躬身作揖，「奴婢自知要從王爺跟前逮人，無異癡心妄想，容我等先行告退。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznCDViRJXs
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3LYy6Bx6C
汪直躬身下拜，一干人隨即退去，臨走前汪直還不忘冷笑幾聲。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OFUWI0kj1
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMbVbDWdYJ
毒蛇。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aZQ3ZnG0j
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH4cDIDPek
予人濕冷黏膩，陰毒入心的感覺，那是毒蛇，有著鮮豔紅黑斑紋的赤煉蛇。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89dWy0HnTt
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d9tVUlLth
汪直一去，此間再無阻攔，禁衛軍手執火把，其餘人等小心翼翼地推著一桶桶的實心彈和火藥。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWfKAGyW1K
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgieTt7ay7
熱風的利刃攪動火焰。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVVaa38JyD
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr47y09UFGe
禁軍沿著咸若宮散開，六門洪武大砲皆已蓄勢待發。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkvwjItJdq
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qPoaNwcyG
「分六處，瞄準殿內外金柱，務必使主殿崩塌，阻止火勢蔓延。」朱玹下令。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79zKorG5RP
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rsr5mqxxk
眾人熟練地取出通條清理砲管，充填實心彈和火藥，打開火門並放入火捻，再倒上少許火藥。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvWg0Ho4mi
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGO3b28xA7
「好！」砲手高舉右手。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDwxhE51tu
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLEIp1X6qy
「放！」朱玹咆哮。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTAs8rMsDy
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAhq7wKgKG
砲手舉起火炬，點燃引信，風勢的助長下，微弱紅光迅速燃燒，砲管噴發。一聲巨響，殿前的兩根金柱從中斷裂，殿頂崩塌，熊熊烈焰從裂口竄出。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGdfFTUObe
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq2i9vXyI4
那是咸若宮的正殿，她讀書寫字的地方，也是眾人的魂魄安息的地方。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7DoiqjAk8
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ypTFALDcj
砲手再度清理炮口，準備下一次擊發。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaHxe5Cejj
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW12m1PDGj
熱風盤旋，湖衣退後了幾步，卻瞥見林間黑影飄動，有人在暗處窺視。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X7saTRatQ
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR74j4fkKSS
朱玹瞬間側過目光，他也發現到林中有人。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwuNOefwyg
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4ZXtbiOCT
湖衣隱隱覺著不安，她曾在獵場見過禿鷹於垂死動物上方盤旋。暗處之人就像禿鷹，等著她與朱玹一步步地，踏入預設好的死亡陷阱。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5kIfL6hKx
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr56h0ViBIC
「許逵何在？」朱玹高聲喚道。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0M488KUSP
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEamd1Ip0Qw
「是，統領。」一名司軍出列。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTigRdhyQH
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLgXQ8Ux3E
「率領二十名親衛，策馬夜行，護送她到金陵知府邸。」朱玹輕推湖衣，「由安定門出城，先向五城兵馬司提督出示軍令，言明在宮中失火，縱火首謀可能已逃往城外，爾等奉命連夜追蹤。出城後，避開官道和驛站，每三十里換裝換馬，若發現有人跟蹤，則設法甩開，避免正面衝突。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfRrm46t5Y
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OAIwZM0et
「是。」許逵領命後，退至後方一一指名親衛。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRg65sYnt4
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUQqs7ys1o
「王爺要我走？」湖衣不敢置信地望著朱玹。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQTzImxJaL
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapd5RyiY3T
「馬上走。火一滅，禁軍必須退出清寧宮，有人正在等妳落單，屆時連我也護不住妳。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXP017be54V
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygPH0FmQrB
「我不走，我要留下背負應得之罪，償還欠下的血債。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOH8ZqOzhd
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5itZkj9xR
這麼多人在她面前枉死，她怎能苟且偷生？314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurAW34HxN4
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7wWKS4MVJ
「正因眾人為妳而死，妳更應該好好的活下去，否則他們的犧牲都成枉死，」朱玹按住她的雙肩，「看著我，想想妳的家人，妳的父母都在金陵等著妳回去，況且唯有妳活著，才可能為死去的宮人平冤昭雪。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VsNIdZHF4
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnjfyUGxog
湖衣不肯動，當她一見著他，就忘了徹夜哭泣的疼，只記得他的溫柔，她真的不願與他分離。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UosNBgfZb
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbjtSRh68c
許逵在前方引路，其餘二十人圍在她周邊，迫著她移步。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfbwwrUUTZ
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9xEZRSIbr
砲兵舉起手，等待開火的命令。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYLRac5Vyp
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBZOrdOTDg
一切都像是靜止了。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIRhzlGh8U
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0Qg5yz7eY
朱玹伸手將湖衣用力一推，「走！再不走就走不了。」314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaiX88ypMN
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaF9BTSDB1q
在她身後的親衛，半推著她向前走。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy04L6wYRqK
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaj3OWZVys
她一步一回首，望著火光中的朱玹――她深愛的男人。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghy8k2uuVm
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRJaBRyOnu
燃燒的咸若宮被直衝天際的火幕壟罩，看不出原有的形貌，灰燼似落雪，點點焰火隨風飛舞，像夜空中的星子，自深闇如黑絲的芎蒼，墜落。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEK91qZOcnh
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtCexDRn8f
湖衣覺得胸口空蕩蕩的，彷彿有人掏出她的心肺。不知是因為黑煙，或是熱氣，五臟六腑疼如火燒，一呼一吸之間劇痛無已。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCUdzUZGX0
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSLuUMQHVx
她告訴自己要勇敢，眼前只是暫時作別，等待日後相聚……314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpdDwaydms
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEbFopAeJX
「放！」朱玹號令。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMegWxfP4iJ
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbBQAkMDCP
震耳欲聾的巨響後，一陣煙牆襲來。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7547jMKIkK
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEu1PzEoz9
她朝後望去，最後的一眼。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHsrnhsJLj
314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazuVQoy6uL
咸若宮轟然倒塌。314Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnxsLhCGd5
