Ouyang Shuo hesitated for a moment, seeing that she was alone, aggrieved and pitiful, he frowned, and could no longer refuse.

"This king will send you back!"

"Thank you, Lord Wang. Sang Xiaoxi smiled, feeling extremely happy. She knew that Ouyang Shuo would not bear to leave her alone. Even if he said something excessive yesterday, he didn't refuse himself. Isn't that enough to prove his feelings for himself?

He must have been temporarily blinded by Sang Qingrou, and he must have made King Chen sober up.

Along the way, Sang Xiaoxi limped, thinking that Ouyang Shuo would pity Xiangxiang and cherish the jade, at least help her, who knows, he just followed by and never stretched out his hand.

Several times, Ouyang Shuo said that he wanted to help her find a sedan chair or carriage, but Sang Xiaoxi refused.

Actually, I just want to stay with the prince a little longer, as long as you are around. I can still tolerate this pain. ”

"Why are you doing this?"

"I think it's worth it, and I'm sure that one day, you'll come back. ”

Ouyang Shuo didn't speak again, just quietly followed Sang Xiaoxi's side, paying a little attention to her safety. Because of Sang Xiaoxi's inconvenient legs, he walked very slowly. Ouyang Shuo remembered his bet with Sang Qingrou and pinned his last hope on Sang Xiaoxi.

If he and Sang Qingrou really have fate, then let him meet Sang Qingrou when he arrives at the Prime Minister's Mansion!

At this moment, Sang Qingrou was already drunk and asleep in the wine cellar, and she didn't know what was going on outside.

She and Ruyu were both very drunk, and they didn't know how long they had been asleep, until they felt a little stuffy and woke up from a daze.

"Ruyu, why is this wine cellar so stuffy, you go and open the door a little bit to let it breathe. Sang Qingrou felt that she was about to run out of breath, and she didn't know if it was because she drank too much.

Ruyu knocked on her drowsy head, staggered to the door and wanted to open the door, but when she pulled hard, the door didn't move.

She was stunned, thinking that she hadn't woken up just now and wouldn't even open the door, so she pulled it again several times, but the door still didn't move. She frowned, the door seemed to have been locked from the outside.

"Ruyu, I asked you to open the door, how did you mother-in-law. You're not so drunk that you don't even know how to open the door, do you?"

"Miss, this door...... It seems to be tethered from the outside. We seem to be locked up here. ”

"What did you say?" Sang Qingrou looked displeased, walked over, grabbed the door and shook it a few times, but there was really no reaction at all.

How so?

"Who is so bold that they don't know that I'm inside, how can they lock the door?"

"Miss, no one usually comes to the wine cellar, and if no one finds out about us, won't we be locked up here all the time? ”

"What's the matter, what are you anxious about. I didn't say anything about you, I asked you to drink with me, and I don't blame you. Shout it out, and maybe someone will hear it. ”

It's a pity that things are not as simple as they think.

Not long after they woke up, Sang Qingrou suddenly smelled a strange smell flowing in through the crack in the door.

"What does this smell like?" she frowned, feeling something wasn't quite right.

Sang Qingrou squatted down and touched the liquid flowing in with her hand, put it in front of her nose and sniffed it, and was immediately shocked.

Isn't that the smell of oil, and what is it?

First locked them in the cellar, and now they are pouring oil again. Who is so bold as to dare to openly poison her?

Sang Qingrou reacted at the first time, and desperately slapped the door and shouted: "Who is outside? You are so bold that you dare to poison me." If you open the door if you don't cripple you, I won't be Sang Qingrou. Open the door for me! Bastard, open the door. ”

"Miss, what's wrong?"

"Stupid! find a way to get out, if we stay here any longer, it won't be long before we become roast pigs." ”

Obviously, someone wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to kill them and burn them alive in the cellar. This place is full of accelerants, and once an open flame burns, they have no chance of survival.

"What? This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, who has the audacity to dare to poison you, Miss?"

"Don't say so much, the man is outside, hurry up and think about getting out, she's going to set fire, we're done." ”

At this time, Sang Qingrou was really panicked.

Even if she wants to die, she doesn't want to end her story line in this way. Becoming a roast suckling pig, this way of dying is too low. Anyway, she should have died vigorously, instead of dying so miserably and humiliatingly. She didn't even know who was responsible for it, how could this work?

"No! I can't die here. The point is, it was too painful to be burned alive. ”

As soon as she thought of that picture, Sang Qingrou became scared. She pulled Ruyu and desperately tried to open the door.

But what else could there be in the cellar besides wine?

These are all Sang Qingrou's talismans.

After a while, the smell of fire wafted into the crack of the door, and the temperature in the wine cellar was getting higher and higher, and Sang Qingrou pulled Ruyu back, standing far away.

Do they really have no other way to survive?

"Ruyu, will there be any secret passages in this wine cellar that lead to the outside?" Sang Qingrou forced herself to calm down, observing the surroundings, looking for vitality.

Ruyu was already crying in fright, shaking her head desperately.

"The slave maid is also coming to this place for the first time, and is not familiar with this place. How can there be a secret passage in this place? Miss, are we going to die this time? The slave doesn't want to be burned alive, what should we do?"

Sang Qingrou was already panicked, but when she heard Ruyu's cry, she was even more distracted.

She held Ruyu's hand tightly and watched the fire spread, and there was nothing she could do. This wine cellar was sealed everywhere, and the other party must have calculated that they had no chance of escaping, so they chose to attack at this time.

She took a deep breath and forced Ruyu to calm down and look at her.

"Ruyu, I'm sorry, this time, I was the one who caused you. Don't cry, okay? I know you're scared right now, it's okay, I'm here with you. Don't be afraid!"

When Ruyu heard this, she cried even more. She hugged Sang Qingrou tightly, her whole body was trembling, and she didn't dare to look behind her.

Sang Qingrou clearly saw that the fire was slowly engulfing everything around her, but there was nothing she could do.

Could it be that I really can't escape it today?

She hugged Ruyu tightly to dispel the fear in her heart.

"Don't be afraid! I'll always be there for you. Ruyu, if we really die today, I will definitely help you explore the way ahead. With me, the cow ghost and snake god don't dare to bully you. ”

Ruyu listened and burst into tears.

"Miss, I'm not afraid, I'll protect you. I'm not going to let anyone hurt you!"
