Chapter 278: Can you afford it?

Views:

The sparks are spreading, and the fire is raging!

From the Chengqing Hall, there were bursts of thick smoke and screams that shattered the sky.

Ji Yunshu's wide eyes gradually tightened, and an endless sense of panic flooded her chest again. She shook her head slightly and stepped back weakly.

Turn around and prepare to go to Chengqing Hall.

but-

General Li grabbed her.

"There is a sea of fire there. If you are in the past now, it will not help."

Ji Yunshu's eyes were red, and he reprimanded in disappointment: "As a veteran of the three dynasties, General Li has fought for the country for many years, only to get the peace of the people, but now, you are killing Dalin in the name of not letting history repeat itself. Son of Heaven, do you know that once the emperor and all the princes die, Qujiang Huyi will definitely raise an army, and by then, not only will the Chengqing Hall be in flames, but the entire Dalin will be covered in charcoal and blood, can you afford it?"

The next moment, Ji Yunshu forcefully shook off his hand and ran towards Chengqing Hall.

Behind him, General Li was stunned for a long time, and seemed to wake up and realize the consequences of what Ji Yunshu said earlier.

The vigorous palm, slowly lifted, placed on the wall of the tower, clenched into a fist...

Ji Yunshu ran like crazy, seemingly a short distance of a few hundred meters, but he ran for a long time.

At this time, the Chengqing Hall was surrounded by a raging fire, and it was a mess, and people could not see clearly.

The lanterns kept falling down, and the forty or fifty tiny wires that hung the lanterns were filled with gunpowder. At this moment, like water pipes that could not be closed, the demons danced wildly and sparked uncontrollably. , thrown madly on the ground, on the desk, on the person...

The people who were burned by the fire kept running around, and finally, their bodies collapsed to the ground weakly, giving off a smell of burnt flesh.

As soon as the lantern fell, the imperial guards outside rushed in to rescue the driver and blocked the entrance of the Chengqing Hall. In addition, the banquet was held outside the hall, so it was impossible for the crowd to retreat into the hall. , it is impossible to withdraw, and they are all stuck in a ball.

In order to protect him, several eunuchs next to Emperor Qi Zhen were thrown by the wire and died in the sea of fire.

The wooden stake erected on the side burst into flames, and just as he was about to fall, Emperor Qi Zhen had already been forced to retreat to the side.

And the prince Jinghua, who was closest to the emperor, saw that the stake was about to smash down on his father, but instead of trying to rescue him, he ran away.

It's so funny!

Seeing this scene, Emperor Qi Zhen felt really lost in his heart.

He said just now that he would give his precious son what he wanted, but now, he has fled!

brute!

Beast!

Just as the stake was about to fall, Jing Rong and Jing Yi both jumped up and rushed over, braving the fire in the middle.

Jing Rong kicked that stake away!

Jing Yi protected Emperor Qi Zhen and his mother-in-law to one side!

The smoke billowed, and Concubine Xiao's delicate body couldn't stand it anymore, and after choking on the smoke, she fainted, and was immediately picked up by Jing Yi and rushed outside the hall.

And Emperor Qi Zhen was not in good health either. He covered his nose with his sleeves and coughed hard. He thought he had escaped the catastrophe, but who knew that the wooden stake on the other side fell down again and hit him heavily on the shoulder. He was killed on the spot. He fell to the ground and passed out.

The fire caused the back of Emperor Qi Zhen to catch fire.

"Father..."

Jing Yi shouted, his eyes were aching from the smoke, and he could only vaguely see Emperor Qi Zhen lying on the ground.

"Hurry up!"

At this time, the Imperial Forest Army rushed in as if discredited, rushed to the high platform, kicked off the wooden stakes on Emperor Qi Zhen's body, extinguished the flames that had just started on his back, and escorted them out of the Chengqing Hall.

Ji Yunshu just came over and saw Jing Yi carrying Concubine Xiao out, guards escorted Emperor Qi Zhen out, and some courtiers and sons also evacuated one after another.

But Jing Rong and Jing Xian are nowhere to be seen...

Ji Yunshu grabbed a guard and asked anxiously, "Where's Prince Rong?"

The guard looked around and said, "It should still be inside." After speaking, the guard was also anxious and called in his staff: "Quick, Prince Rong hasn't gone out yet."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yunshu rushed in, grabbed him and asked, "Have you seen Prince Rong?"

The people inside were terrified and ignored her at all.

The fire was even more ferocious. She covered her nose, and there was so much smoke in front of her that she couldn't see the road at all.

"Jing Rong, Jing Rong!" she shouted loudly.

I wanted to go in again, but was pulled by the guards and dragged her out.

"Mr. Ji, there is such a big fire inside, you can't go in."

"let me go."

"You can't go in..."

She kept struggling, tears fell down, and she was dragged out.

until-

At the entrance of the hall, two figures were blurred, and she stared at it closely. As the figures became clearer and clearer, her heart finally let go.

Jing Rong supported Jing Xian, who was slightly drooping, and walked out from the inside. The sick Jing Xian seemed to be dying, coughing non-stop, and his face was even paler. The guard immediately took him from Jing Rong's hand.

Ji Yunshu's nose was sore, and her tears were wiped away. She wanted to rush towards Jingrong, but suddenly—

"Someone, arrest King Rong." It was Jing Yi's voice.

The Imperial Forest Army did not move, all of them were surprised.

Jing Rong did not respond.

I saw Jing Yi reprimanded Jing Rong with a look of anger: "The fire was caused by lanterns and iron wire. This king learned that just the night before yesterday, you stole and replaced all the lanterns sent by Fangshui City, intending to plan today's events."

Jing Rong is speechless!

The commander-in-chief of the Imperial Forest Army stepped forward and asked, "King Yi, this matter..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jing Yi shouted, "Zhang Bo!"

In the crowd, Zhang Bo, the chief of staff, came out, his clothes were burnt with large holes, and he knelt on the ground, trembling.

Lanterns, as materials, came from the service department, so Zhang Bo naturally couldn't get rid of it.

Jing Yi asked him, "This king asks you, did King Rong go to the Minister's Department the night before yesterday and replaced all the lanterns?"

Zhang Bo raised his head and glanced at Jing Rong, his eyes were erratic, and he said hesitantly, "Yes, Prince Rong... Yes, he came here. He said that there was a problem with the lanterns in Fangshui City, so they all replaced them, and the order was not allowed to reveal half a word."

With Zhang Bo as a witness, Jing Yi was full of confidence and asked Jing Rong, "What else do you have to say?"

Jing Rong glanced at Zhang Bo coldly: "I did change the lantern, but it's not the lantern that caught fire today, but the iron wire."

"Xiu is denying, if there is something wrong with the father, you will not be able to bear ten lives." Jing Yi ordered the Yulin Army: "Don't arrest anyone yet."

"Yes!"

The Imperial Forest Army immediately arrested Jing Rong.

Jing Yi said again: "Put Prince Rong into the Heavenly Prison, and make a decision after the father and emperor wakes up."

Seeing this, Ji Yunshu rushed forward, but Jingrong shook her head slightly at her.

Signal not to come!

When Jing Rong was taken away, Ji Yunshu was still unwilling and chased two steps, but was pulled by a pair of hands.

Looking back, it was Jing Xian.
