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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBl6oUPq6B
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D70rK5hJh
「即刻帶人到軍械庫去取洪武大砲。」朱玹道。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd1SscBcFJ
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEpgnlIyyy
「慢著！」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdrTWNbPoH
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGQJG4BwSI
閃爍的火光，映照萬貴妃扭曲的面容。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfWi3Cw5gv
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKwnCyEUli
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHM5ToOtARu
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvOeqRAQhN
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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCp3NNguK9
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVizGgOd8O
「本宮便是違反宮規，皇叔又待如何？」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qYJSok0so
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡej0u4zczhR
「速請貴妃回宮。」朱玹大喝。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOaJGb6pPZ
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvX1DA3lj4
兩名禁軍上前，向萬貴妃行了一禮，作勢要她回宮。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplA5ISbrZi
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FB28YrDwh
萬貴妃昂首大笑，「就憑你們，有甚麼資格命令本宮？」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3fPBP2tBo
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaKgpNselb
湖衣推離朱玹的懷抱，迎上萬貴妃尖厲的目光， 268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONUX1aVrvi
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJN8T08bgS
「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――」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTknIak7Kcr
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg50gyV26b1
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvrRgecP1S
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWR2oQ2Vab
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvGAQxNOVr
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37W8tM69MR
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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ116HLRTnyQ
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksDX12XHhs
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTYZ10aIDm
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpGgh5ZnN1
萬貴妃惡狠狠地啐了一口，一甩衣袖，轉頭即去。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5mkp8DERS
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lLgA4JMmF
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQwTt9Rh9F
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRgIHBDaJm
汪直目不轉睛地回望她，時而露出詭異至極的笑容。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDnv2Xrpnj
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGs9UQoM0T
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtMT77qYuq
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZnOSL7x71
「王爺……」見著此景，湖衣心下茫然。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mPFOLrBxc
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYGvpACTX5
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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNKRAGIUgT
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzZtCz4pZB
想到自己居住許久的宮殿將被夷平，湖衣一時無言以對。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwwV2GiuvE
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfLYVWjXWC
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WTQNATE9y
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ow8yNvGXH
某處砰然一聲，琉璃瓦片紛紛崩落，像是宮殿在流淚。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPFqbaY175
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONlCyloiGY
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG26aRdY0wD
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFChmFNnQ66
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj95ycF8phh
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOATtyTfxX
「若本王說不呢？」朱玹厲聲說。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3aCYpuYom
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeL7MR8ItoU
朱玹與湖衣一同直視汪直，三人就這麼僵持半晌。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyazB5XeHM8
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqUQZteasL
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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBGZMubndf
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA2FBXTpfm
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Leg8aqhCT
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfDqv5Cxfy
毒蛇。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNekObYswGn
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZaNLwQhBL
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTpNwfxLVg
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05UlOQijxd
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g56o4Eo2s
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFniTxBWwPl
熱風的利刃攪動火焰。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevPfN4VEeI
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SEOdMtS4f
禁軍沿著咸若宮散開，六門洪武大砲皆已蓄勢待發。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz27PGBVfH
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqgEC5qiK2
「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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eO0XrAeIS
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHqocIJQFW
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqLZXN06Dm
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUH4pyI4Rf
「好！」砲手高舉右手。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTfs6s56eL
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjby7pJSaei
「放！」朱玹咆哮。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbTPzNiPxs
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLNrPyHbD2
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AVTgDFA7D
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHP5297FZ0
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM2mxBob3G
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70A4aqaJgp
砲手再度清理炮口，準備下一次擊發。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCrcFoX5dp
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVvT3HJkT9
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbr9wu22wS
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMzhM6LzXa
朱玹瞬間側過目光，他也發現到林中有人。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Qtyjo7WWU
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAispPNXNRo
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGndKjsJiF
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa1hqDjy8C
「許逵何在？」朱玹高聲喚道。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEGuP7L7FF
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh0goqtmT5
「是，統領。」一名司軍出列。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2KXYkTh0W
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSKtXX0Avm
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC7l9Kfrl9
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGIJlxa7C9
「是。」許逵領命後，退至後方一一指名親衛。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5kykXUbtv
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0t4fvoXyrq
「王爺要我走？」湖衣不敢置信地望著朱玹。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsZIeHRWJr
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub1pXKh2hY
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2osS3HLo9
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdKXyRVgff
「我不走，我要留下背負應得之罪，償還欠下的血債。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VxIrOvys7
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjOSacZqxK
這麼多人在她面前枉死，她怎能苟且偷生？268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1qtrNaGQa
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09Yh3Qpas9
「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。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePLPmy5nir
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnssu8pj9ht
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPi702gMJD
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP9lKkGbJa
許逵在前方引路，其餘二十人圍在她周邊，迫著她移步。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk80doYuh5W
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DvMSXU7q8
砲兵舉起手，等待開火的命令。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvbUcjJPPD
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4R90TL5IW
一切都像是靜止了。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1swE5Z6nMR
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViFGF2GtkD
朱玹伸手將湖衣用力一推，「走！再不走就走不了。」268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkBQqc5dEs
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLODQS7BMLf
在她身後的親衛，半推著她向前走。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2g5uwSfL6M
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmtTtfQqlM
她一步一回首，望著火光中的朱玹――她深愛的男人。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gzJVKEuGr
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZRB2ZEPTo
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsKF13BjSK
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRjdzPvNr7
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。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJu1XroZZeQ
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iq8WqjIRy
她告訴自己要勇敢，眼前只是暫時作別，等待日後相聚……268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDoIdVQERK
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpyochEeBA
「放！」朱玹號令。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQKdeWHIfh
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLPLyjvfEU
震耳欲聾的巨響後，一陣煙牆襲來。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2aHueJ1Rg
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHWLv6Rtim
她朝後望去，最後的一眼。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xYEgpjONP
268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWzFySgctj
咸若宮轟然倒塌。268Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhUIThGfpE
