The prefect of Qingzhou had never been so bullied in his life. The fake man who claimed to be the Prince of Beimo County ordered him to do this and that. He was a fifth-rank prefect, but under her he was like a slave. It was really very uncomfortable.
If she hadn't punched through the wall with one punch, she would have been dragged out and beaten with thirty sticks.
He rescued a woman and said she was the Regent Princess, and rescued a man and said he was the Regent Prince. He also brought back a man whose body was charred black and said he was the Prince of Nanhuai. These were all big shots, so why would they come to his small Qingzhou
Fortunately, he had successfully concealed himself from the female bandit two days ago and sent people to Zhaozhou to ask people from the Zhaozhou military camp to rescue him. I think they will arrive soon.
"Tenon!"
The prefect's eardrums were beating again. He was really angry. He had a name. His surname was Lao, his name was Suon, and his courtesy name was Mobai. If she didn't want to call him by his name, she could also call him Old Master. But she had to call him Suontou. He was not an architect.
However, no matter how dissatisfied he was, since the people from Zhaozhou military camp had not arrived yet, he had to run over happily, "My Lord, what do you want?"
"Are there any good doctors in Qingzhou?" Qin Zhou's face turned cold. "The doctors you invited are all quacks. It's been four days, and the prince and princess haven't woken up yet."
The prefect bowed and said respectfully, "That can't be said. Then... hasn't Prince Nan Huai in prison woken up?"
Since she said he was the King of Nan Huai, then he must be the King of Nan Huai. Who can blame him for having a bigger fist and more people
"I don't care. Send someone to find a famous doctor right away." Qin Zhou grabbed his collar and said viciously, "If they don't wake up, prepare the coffin."
The prefect was stunned for a moment. "That's not a problem. Qingzhou's coffins are very famous. I will take care of their coffins."
Qin Zhou smiled coldly, "It's your coffin!"
Oh my god!
"I will go right away!" The prefect shuddered all over and almost saw himself lying in the coffin. He turned around and ran away.
The doctors of Qingzhou Prefecture entered the yamen with high morale, and walked out with their heads hung. The one thousand taels of gold offered by the prince was really not easy to earn. They were all half dead. Unless a god came down to earth, who could save them
The prefect was very frightened because Qin Zhou had just walked past him and said to him, "It's time to buy your coffin."
He felt goose bumps all over his body, the cold air seeped into his body through his skin, and he couldn't help shivering again.
…
Qin Zhou sat in front of Zi'an's bed for four days, but she still showed no signs of waking up. During these four days, more than a dozen doctors came and shook their heads, saying that her injuries were serious, her back was rotten, and some hidden weapons were embedded in her flesh. Although they had been picked out, they were severely festered and inflamed, and she was afraid that she would not be able to recover.
However, despite such a harsh situation, the baby in her belly was very tenacious.
Murong Jie's condition was not good either. He hasn't woken up yet. These past few days, he was relying on force-feeding rice soup to keep himself alive.
There are no good doctors in Qingzhou, but the injuries of the two were too severe to move, so they immediately sent someone to Hanshan to invite the old prince that day. However, the old prince might come quickly, but the person who went there would need several days even if he broke his horse's legs.
Counting the days, if the old prince can arrive in Qingzhou within ten days, it will be a blessing from God.
However, if Zi'an and Murong Jie's situation changes during these ten days, no one will be able to save them.
"Prince, there is no need to worry too much. The princess will surely be able to turn the danger into safety." Seeing that Qin Zhou had not slept much for several nights, A Jing comforted her.
"Have all the bodies on the mountain been dealt with?" Qin Zhou rubbed his brows and asked.
"There's no need to do anything. Just dig a pit and bury everything. They've already been burned to charcoal. If they burn any longer, they'll probably all turn to ash."
"Not a single one alive?"
"Except Prince Nan Huai, there is no one alive." A Jing said.
When he arrived at the Dragon King Temple, he was really shocked. He had never seen such a horrific scene. Dozens of people were surrounded by a circle of fire. Those people were roaring miserably and in pain, like wounded beasts. He was afraid that he would never forget that scream.
The prince and Prince Nan Huai were also in the fire circle, but neither of them was burned and they were just breathing their last. At that time, he wanted to kill Prince Nan Huai with a knife, but then he remembered what Lingli had said before about the same fate Gu, so he brought him back and asked someone to treat him.
"Who set this fire?" Qin Zhou secretly doubted.
"Yes, it's very strange. The fire only burned a circle. There were clearly weeds and dry wood around it, but it couldn't burn through. However, apart from the strange fire circle, there was nothing strange about the other things. Because there were fires in several places, the yamen's lawyer suspected that it was caused by lightning."
"But the sky was clear that day, so how could there be any thunder or lightning?"
Ah Jing said: "When we rushed to the foot of the mountain that day, we saw what seemed to be electric fire on the mountain."
"So strange? The lightning is only on the mountain?" Qin Zhou thought for a moment, "Have you ever asked Master why the Dragon King Temple is on the mountain? Aren't most Dragon King Temples near water?"
"Master said that the Dragon King Temple was built by Emperor Hui, and it is called the Fire Dragon Temple. It is not the Dragon King of the East Sea or the Dragon King of the West Sea. This Dragon King does not spray water, but only fire..."
As Ah Jing spoke, he looked around and lowered his voice, "I heard from my master that this fire dragon was the former Regent King Qingtian. It is said that he was the reincarnation of a fire dragon, so Emperor Hui built fire dragon temples in various places to accumulate merit for the Regent King Qingtian."
"This is just a rumor. How can the Regent King Qingtian be a fire dragon? Instead, he and the Empress Dowager seem to be a couple..."
Ah Jing shook his head and said, "How is this possible? The Regent King Qingtian is the Empress Dowager's brother-in-law."
"That was all a long time ago. I don't know either. But it couldn't be a fire dragon. These are all legends. Don't take them seriously. Don't talk nonsense. After all, it's a matter of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty." Qin Zhou warned.
"Yes!" A Jing was not a gossipy person, but after listening to the legends told by his master, he became interested. The fire dragon is so majestic.
However, he also knew it was impossible.
That evening, the prefect invited several more doctors.
He walked in cautiously and said, "My Lord, almost all the doctors in Qingzhou Prefecture are here. If it doesn't work, there is nothing I can do."
Qin Zhou stood up and glanced at him coldly, "If there is no one in Qingzhou, then go to Zhaozhou or the nearby prefectures to invite one."
"It's not easy to find a good doctor." The prefect said bitterly.
Qin Zhou said coldly: "Of course, where is the coffin easy to find for a good doctor?"
The prefect was furious. "What a little thief! Don't think I'm really afraid of you. I'm at least a fifth-rank official... I'll go find him right away and send someone else to look for him. There are many miracle doctors around here. If you can't find him today, you'll definitely find him tomorrow."
I hate these people the most. They raise their fists at every turn. If his head wasn't as strong as the wall of the yamen, how could he be so humiliated
When the officers and soldiers from Zhaozhou arrive, just wait for your death!
