Chapter 245: The Torch Rushes
Several parties confronted each other.
The people shouted with torches, but no one in the room cared about what they said, everyone was watching their movements and where the first moon night was.
If you have found it in the house, the body that has been turned out of the burning stable will obviously not be a ten-year-old girl.
It was almost certain that the unlit lampshade was hiding Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Listening to their recitations in the evening of the first month, all about "guidance" and "sacrifice", she was extremely nervous and tired, and she could no longer understand so much information, so she could only listen to it as a distraction, and maybe she could hold on for a little longer.
On the other side of the river in the distance, Chu Yongnian stepped on the railing with his sleeves tightened, and aimed at the opposite bank with a bow and arrows.
Chu Yongwang walked behind him and stood quietly, his brows twisted into a knot.
It's not clear here.
The Da people were holding torches and scurrying around, mainly relying on the light on the Yulin Army and the surrounding buildings, and they could see a high shelf standing by the river, like a huge lantern.
Is that the "sky lantern"? "Little Yuning is in the lampshade."
Chu Yongnian measured his position and relaxed his bow a little, "But now those Da people are walking around, and blindly shooting them down will light the lampshade and burn Yuning. ”
"Then don't shoot."
At the beginning, Yongwang was silent.
Chu Yongnian did not tease him again, but vigilantly and cautiously took the bow again, waiting for the opportunity.
Chu Yongwang clenched his hands.
The old emperor also ran up to the city tower, looked at the light on the riverbank, and said in horror: "It's late! Is that too late!? "Boats were rowed on the river waiting to salvage people who might have fallen, but the oil was wrapped in water, and even if it was wet, it would still burn, and everyone was on standby, and the fire shone on the thin sweat of the sideburns.
The Da people stopped and walked in front of the cart, finished the lengthy words, and chanted in unison.
"Light the sky lantern!!" They raised torches and gathered towards the wooden poles.
Suddenly, a gust of wind pierced through the crowd and struck a man with a torch on the side of the cart, and the stout man was knocked out of the way, and he fell into the river with torches.
The people of Da Yu were in chaos in an instant, and the Yulin army didn't know what the situation was, and the people in the river pulled up the criminal who had fallen into the water, and found that he had a long arrow nailed to his face, and his skull was shot through.
"Old Eleven!" Chu Yongwang was shocked, "He still went!" ”
"Rest easy."
Chu Yongwang aimed at the Da people who were about to light the firewood, and fired three arrows in a row in the blink of an eye, shooting all those people away.
Yu Linjun knew who had released the arrows this time, so he immediately rushed forward to extinguish the torch and drag the body away.
The rest of the Da Yu hurriedly divided into two groups, three or five waved their sabers to resist the approaching enemy, and the others continued to surround the cart, the torches still burning the wooden poles, and the fire instantly rushed into the lampshade.
The lights are on.
"Chu Yongnian, what are you waiting for?!" Chu Yongwang hurriedly reminded.
"Wait now."
Chu Yongnian quickly set up his bow and stared at the bright "sky lantern".
Boats rowed on the river waiting to salvage people who might have fallen, but the oil-wrapped ones would still burn even if they were wet, and everyone was on standby, and the fire shone on the thin sweat of their sideburns.
The Da people stopped and walked in front of the cart, finished the lengthy words, and chanted in unison.
"Light the sky lantern!!" They raised torches and gathered towards the wooden poles.

The lights are on.
"Chu Yongnian, what are you waiting for?!" Chu Yongwang hurriedly reminded.
"Wait now."
Chu Yongnian quickly set up his bow and stared at the bright "sky lantern".
The figure inside was faintly reflected by the flames that had sparked.
The early moon had just heard the chaos below, but he couldn't see what was happening, but when he came back to his senses, the scorching temperature was already rushing towards him.
Jing Qi suddenly got up and grabbed a big man and threw it into the water, and in an instant, the cold wind passed through the sky, and the "bang bang bang" smashed through the huge lampshade several times in succession, revealing the early moon on the top of the pole.
The hood hung down and held the flames, so that the fire did not immediately burn to the body of the early moon.
The Da Yu people below suddenly panicked, Jing Qi pounced on a strong man who was about to climb the pole, and another tall Da Yu man raised his saber and climbed the pole.
If he can't burn the first moon night, he will use a knife.
"Go away!" Chu Yuewan raised a kick and kicked the man in the face.
She was amazed that stepping on her face was much more stable than stepping on a board or a rope.
"Your Highness the Princess!" The strong man hurriedly came up to stop him, but the strong man got up and dragged Jing Qi again, and the surrounding Yulin Army and several other Da Qi people fought and escaped, and hacked to death the person who caught Jing Qi.
Jing Qi hurriedly grabbed the pole and reached out to pull the man's foot.
An arrow flew and hit the man who climbed the pole, and the man fell.
Chu Yongyi, who was on the other side of the tree, saw Chu Yuewan tied on it, and immediately became angry, and he didn't even hit the board car with a few arrows, and almost nailed the stone road next to him, and Chu Yuewan was so shaken that his heart was about to jump out.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, don't be afraid, the end will catch you!" Jing Qi shouted.
The early moon night was really uncomfortable, and it was better to fall down quickly.
"Little Thirteen-" Chu Yongyi bent his bow like the moon, and instantly released the bowstring again.
The arrow struck the long pole violently in an instant, and the thick wood was broken, and half of the pole suddenly fell from the sky with the early moon.
Jing Qi pounced on her and caught her, and plunged into the river.
…… The sound of water rumbling in my ears is all too familiar in the early moon evening.
She had lost count of the number of times she had floated in the water.
I was still extremely scared before I fell, but when I really fell, I became extremely calm.
Her trapped hands were loosened, and in the darkness the thorns scooped her up and lifted her onto the boat that was waiting beside her.
"Poof......" spit water in the evening of the early moon.
This time, I didn't faint at all.
"Lord Jing!" Chu Yue was still in good spirits to get up, and the soldiers next to her were salvaging Jing Qi onto the boat, and she hurriedly came over to check.
Jing Yi was seriously injured and supported for so long, and now that Chu Yuewan was rescued, the tight strings on his body were loosened, and the person suddenly lost his strength, lying down panting and not moving.
"Her Royal Highness Princess...... It's good to be safe. ”
He looked at Chu Yuewan and finished speaking, closed his eyes and rested.
Chu Yuewan didn't bother him, just patted him on the shoulder.
She turned her head to look at the shore, the huge lampshade was still burning, people were putting out the fire, dragging the corpses, the boatmen rowed the boat along the river in the direction of the palace gate, the light of the fire was getting farther and farther away.
The Da people still thought they were sacrificing for their wolves, hoping to go to heaven when they died.
"He who is deceived and dies because of his wickedness will be lost in thorns and will not be able to reach the kingdom of heaven."
Chu Yuewan looked at the shore and whispered.
…… Imperial Palace, Chenji Hall.
After changing into clothes full of oil and blood, Chu Yue sneezed several times in a row, wrapped in new clothes and a small quilt, and shrank in his father's bedroom.
The imperial doctor came to do a detailed examination, and found that Chu Yuewan, who had not looked like a big deal, actually had injuries on his head and body, and the old emperor was so angry that he blew his beard.
Queen Yun didn't want to toss anymore, so she kept hugging Chu Yuewan to watch people give her medicine and feed her, and didn't say anything.
There were several layers of gauze wrapped around her head, Chu Yuewan felt very uncomfortable, and always wanted to rub her head, Queen Yun took her little hand and took it away, and said her first sentence in a long time: "Don't move." ”
Chu Yuewan stopped moving, and turned her head to lie in her arms.
"Jing Qi, this time, ...... the old emperor really doesn't know whether to say that he is unfavorable or meritorious.
"The escort is meritorious."
Chu Yuewan said it for him.
The old emperor sighed and asked someone to go and heal Jing Qi first, and let him go home to recuperate for a while before coming back.
I finally rescued people, and there are still many things that have not been settled.
