"Your Majesty!" The secret guard beside him was so frightened that he hurriedly took out the golden medicine and tried to apply it to him. However, Chu Shaoyang waved his hand and threw him out hard, hitting his back against the stone wall.
"Until now, you are still thinking of him! Very good, when I come back, I will definitely 'love' you for him! I will torture you until you can neither survive nor die!" Chu Shaoyang He swore through gritted teeth and strode away without looking back.
He emerged from the secret passage and immediately saw a fire in Taohuawu soaring into the sky, turning half of the sky red.
The servants in the mansion were in panic. They all crowded outside the gate of Taohuawu, carrying buckets, basins and other objects to pour water into the door.
But it was a drop in the bucket, and the peach trees in the yard caught fire together. The fire was so fierce that it couldn't be extinguished by dozens of buckets and basins.
What Chu Shaoyang is most worried about is the bamboo building in the peach blossom forest. That building is full of his beloved things. Everything is his heart and soul, those precious swords and blades, those military books that he has collected from all over the world...
"Everyone, please rush in and put out the fire! If anything is missing from the bamboo building, I will kill you!"
Amidst the roar of people, Chu Shaoyang's voice of exerting his inner strength spread far away and reached everyone's ears.
After receiving the prince's order, the servants rushed into Taohuawu and put out the fire regardless of their own safety.
Chu Shaoyang grabbed two buckets from the guards, flew into the garden, and went straight to the bamboo tower. When he got in front of the bamboo tower, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The fire started burning in the peach blossom forest three meters away from the front of the bamboo forest. Although the entire bamboo building was surrounded by raging fire, the fire did not burn for a while, and not even a single roof tile caught fire.
Chu Shaoyang originally thought that the fire started from the bamboo building and then spread outwards, but he didn't know that this was not the case at all.
He only stayed for a moment before he felt something was wrong.
This fire is so weird!
There is a peach blossom forest outside, it is spring, the vegetation is lush and green, how could it catch fire for no reason
Someone clearly set the fire on purpose!
Anger suddenly surged in his chest, and he raised his foot and kicked away a slave who rushed forward to put out the fire.
The slave let out a scream, made an arc in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground. His bones and muscles were broken from the fall, and he couldn't get up for a long time.
Everyone nearby who wanted to put out the fire was frightened and stayed there with buckets, not knowing whether to put out the fire or turn around and run away.
"Bastard! Are all of you dead? Someone set this fire! What is the use of my king raising you wine sacks and rice sacks? I can't even stand a thief, and actually let people rush into my palace and set fire to it! Find it! Find me immediately! The culprit who set the fire must be caught and quartered!"
Chu Shaoyang yelled with great anger.
The guards and servants suddenly became a mess. Some were busy putting out the fire, while others were busy searching.
Chu Shaoyang stood upright in front of the bamboo building, his face was ashen, and his forehead was throbbing with pain.
With everyone's efforts to put out the fire, the fire finally became smaller.
A secret guard came forward to report: "Prince Qi, someone indeed set this fire on purpose. My subordinates discovered this in Taohuawu!"
The man knelt on his knees and presented a wooden barrel. When Chu Shaoyang heard it, his expression turned extremely ugly.
He gritted his teeth and said, "This is a bucket of fire oil!"
