Volume 1 Luzhou City Chapter 4 Desperate Situation and Survival
At this time, in the study of the Taishou Mansion, Zhao Wude and Zhao Quan sat around the small tea table, holding the hot soup made by Mrs. Taishou in their hands, and slowly lowered their stomachs.
"It's still a great father, and I'll arrest that Qin Ziye in prison in three or two clicks" Zhao Quan excitedly drank the hot soup in the bowl and said.
"It's just a small means, Qin Ziye is just a waste that can't break through, for Qin Wenbai, his three children have brought him great glory, but Qin Ziye has always caused trouble for him, and he regards it as a shame for the family, and he can exchange a shame for real benefits, which is very utilitarian Qin Wenbai. Zhao Wude was unhurried and drank the hot soup in small sips.
"Dad, I'll discuss something with you. Zhao Quanquan tensed his back and said again and again.
Zhao Wude paused, looked at Zhao Quanquan and waited for him to continue. Zhao Quan swallowed his saliva, lowered his head and whispered, "I want to marry Zhou Yuyao." ”
Zhao Wude frowned after hearing this, put down the soup bowl in his hand, and rubbed his hands back and forth: "It's not that it can't be." ”
Zhao Quanquan was afraid that his father would not agree, and it would be really no fun. Hearing that Zhao Wude did not object, his excited heart was about to pop out. "Really!?Thank you!Thank you, Dad!Thank you, Dad!, my son will definitely make a trip to Qinglan and bring you the best imperial tea quickly!"
Zhao Wude laughed and said with relief: "I know that Quan Er feels sorry for your father the most, how can the imperial tea be so easy to get, I have received it." After saying that, he got up and walked to the window, and through the window the shadows of the grass and trees in the courtyard were intertwined, sparkling like flowing water in the moonlight.
"Old man Zhou is an old-fashioned person, when I was young, your grandfather and I saved the Zhou family once, the old lady of the Zhou family spoke, owing our Zhao family a favor, as long as it is not a matter of murder and arson, the Zhou family must agree unconditionally. It is normal for men and women to marry each other, and it is not difficult at all to exchange a great favor for a girl's marriage, and the old man of the Zhou family is also a good man, and a person who regards his reputation as the root of his life will definitely agree! Moreover, marrying to the Taishou Mansion as a wife will not dishonor his Zhou family! Tomorrow, my father will go to the Zhou Mansion for a trip, and I think it will not be bad!"
Zhao Quanquan didn't listen to it at all, his mind was full of Zhou Yuyao's graceful figure, and when he thought of the woman who was about to get such a look, his whole body became excited.
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, seeing Zhao Quanquan's reaction, Zhao Wude was irritable for no reason, and changed the topic: "But what are you going to do with this Qin Ziye?"
Zhao Quanquan heard Qin Ziye's name and immediately came back to his senses. Thinking of the losses he suffered a few times before, he was extremely angry in his heart: "I want to torture him severely! I want him to watch his beloved woman become my plaything! I want to humiliate him! Yes! Humiliate him fiercely, and then cut off his limbs and throw him into a mass grave, watching himself die slowly in pain if he can't survive and can't die!"
Zhao Wude agrees with Zhao Quanquan's ruthlessness, he is not a husband who is not poisonous, and there is one person who can mix in the officialdom who is not ruthless.
"Okay, Qin Ziye will be handed over to you to deal with, don't give me anything wrong!"
Before the words fell, the entire sky seemed to be lit up, and a huge fireball flew from the Temple Mountain to the west of Luzhou City, and the monstrous fire seemed to want to engulf the entire Luzhou City. Fortunately, the fireball did not come towards the city, but fell towards the west of Luzhou City.
Zhao Wude seemed to remember something, and his face changed greatly: "It's not good! That thing came out! They did it!"
Zhao Quanquan didn't know why: "Dad, what's coming out, what's going on?"
Zhao Wude didn't pay attention to him, but hurriedly called the butler and handed him a jade talisman: "Go, tell Captain Cai to take everyone to guard the four city gates, and no one is strictly forbidden to enter or leave without my order!" The butler took the jade talisman and retreated.
Zhao Wude sat by the window and looked at the sky-high fire in the west and muttered, "Don't have an accident!"
Qin Ziye slept on the stone bed, the cold stone bed almost sucked away all the body temperature, and the cool air passed through the clothes and fir through the skin to the bone marrow! He simply opened his eyes and sat up.
But after a while, a bright light came in from the window, and Qin Ziye was startled, thinking that Zhou Yuyao was back again. Hurriedly stood up and looked out the window. But there was no human figure, I saw a huge fireball flying from the direction of Temple Mountain in the distance, and the sky-high firelight almost illuminated the whole city! Qin Ziye was stunned, hell! I had seen rain, snow, and hail! Can there be fireballs in the sky?
He didn't have time to marvel, he found that the direction of the fireball was his side! The fireball was getting closer and closer, and Qin Ziye could even feel the air around him start to get hot.
The strangeness outside finally startled everyone in the prison, and people cried and screamed, banging on the cell door or the solid brick wall. The noisy sound was chaotic, the fireball was getting closer and closer, Qin Ziye caught a glimpse of a narrow slit under the stone bed that seemed to be able to accommodate him who was not tall, he didn't have time to lie on the ground and squeeze in, and covered his ears with his hands, gritted his teeth, and closed his eyes.
Immediately after that, a huge roar sounded in his ears, and the fireball smashed straight on top of the prison as if the end was coming! The heavy wall couldn't hold up for a moment and collapsed, and the explosion-like sound directly stunned Qin Ziye, and the sound was transmitted far away, waking up the people of Luzhou who were all over the city not far away.
Zhou Yuyao, who had no sleep, was shocked by the huge vibration, ran out of the door and was startled when she saw the fire rushing to the sky in the west, and suddenly came back to her senses after a while, and her face changed dramatically: "Little Yezi!"
Zhou Yuyao got up and picked up the West Night Horse that had been carefully taken care of from the horse, and the saddle was not on, and she directly shook the whip: "Quick! Xiaoju! Save people!" As if knowing the little master's thoughts, Xiaoju, who has always been arrogant, did not lose her temper with her, spread her limbs, flew over the horse fence, and galloped out from the side gate to the west city gate.
A scorching breath woke up the unconscious Qin Ziye, the surrounding fire dimmed, and the collapsed wall hiding in the narrow slit did not cause him any damage, but the scorching temperature burned the stone bed where he was hiding, and he even felt that if he didn't wake up, he would basically be made into the traditional stone pot barbecue of the Tanglin Kingdom!
Enduring the heat and crawling out of the narrow stone crevices, through the collapsed stone walls, dodging the still burning wooden beams and hay, and bypassing the charred corpses along the way, Qin Ziye finally crawled out of the hellish prison.
Qin Ziye looked around the prison, shouting twice from time to time, but finally found no living person, and it seemed that they were all burned to death in the first wave of fire.
Feeling some pain in his fingers, he raised his left hand to see that the wound that had been well treated had cracked again, and a lot of blood oozed from the cloth. The blood didn't flow out in large quantities, it should have been a small tear, and the hand and mouth were clumsily tightened, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
It was already the middle of the night, but the hazy gold of Temple Mountain and the sky-high firelight behind the mountain made Qin Ziye curious, how did that huge fireball come about? What happened in Temple Mountain?
I escaped death, I can't go to Luzhou City, such a big thing happened here, the city must know, maybe someone is sent to check. If you go back, you will just run into a net, so it is better to go to Temple Mountain to find out. I didn't hesitate to get here, and walked quickly towards the temple mountain.
