396. Burned to ashes by fire

Ye Jingjing is missing, it may be that Uncle Zhang acted alone, or it may be a bureau set up by Emperor Jiannian.

Although he also acted panicked, it could not be ruled out that there was a possibility of Di Jianian's covert manipulation.

So he wanted to let Zhaoyu go to prevent her from colluding with Uncle Zhang, so he let him retreat.

Uncle Zhang glared at Emperor Qianling fiercely and sneered, "Emperor Qianling, because you are the Son of Heaven, you can't even protect the woman you like!" ”

Emperor Qianling didn't say much, just looked at the other party with condescending eyes.

Inexplicably, Uncle Zhang was furious when he was seen.

Before, he felt that he was not afraid of Emperor Qianling, but now that he was looking at him directly, he still had a feeling of handstand with the hair all over his body, and he was full of oppression.

Could it be that this is the so-called Son of Heaven, this is the aura of the so-called True Dragon King?

Uncle Zhang was unwilling in his heart, and shouted through gritted teeth, "Emperor Qianling, don't think you can scare me!" Since I have dared to do something to you, I didn't think that I would be able to go back alive! Escaping the snake venom is your fate, but Ye Guifei ......"

"That's enough, Wushuang, let's go."

Emperor Qianling's faint words were like a basin of cold water, which extinguished Uncle Zhang's arrogance.

Uncle Zhang was stunned in place, and Qi Wushuang was also a little inexplicable.

However, he did not question Emperor Qianling's actions, so he nodded and turned around and left with the other party.

Uncle Zhang looked at the backs of the two leaving, feeling like he had punched the cotton, and he was very unwilling in his heart, and roared angrily, "Emperor Qianling!" Aren't you worried about Ye Jingjing's situation as a woman?! ”

Emperor Qianling still didn't react, and walked on his own, looking very relaxed.

Uncle Zhang only felt a nameless anger surging in his heart, which made him very angry, and shouted, "Emperor Qianling, I warn you, Ye Jingjing will soon be burned to ashes, and you will never find ...... again."

Emperor Qianling stopped.

Uncle Zhang thought that his threat was effective, so he smiled contemptuously, "Hmph, after all, you still care ......"

"I stopped, just to look back at you."

Emperor Qianling said, and sure enough, he looked back at Uncle Zhang, his eyes were full of pity.

"Because you finally revealed Jing'er's whereabouts, you, who should have been cut by a thousand cuts, deserve a trace of mercy from me at the end of your life."

As he spoke, Emperor Qianling rushed out, and his body was even a little unstable because of the reaction to the poisoning.

Qi Wushuang hurriedly helped him, and the two hurried out of the dungeon, and no longer paid attention to Uncle Zhang, who was stunned in place.

And Uncle Zhang himself couldn't figure it out, he just threatened, and Emperor Qianling actually knew where Ye Jingjing was?

When Emperor Qianling returned to the house, Emperor Jianian was anxiously pacing back and forth, and Zhao Yu was standing aside.

The master and servant were still and moving, one like ice and the other like fire, which made Qi Wushuang feel a little happy.

"Brother Wang, I want to ask you for something."

The moment the door was opened, Emperor Qianling said.

Di Jianian was stunned for a moment, nodded in agreement, and then said with a little curiosity, "Could it be that you have found Ye Guifei's traces?" ”

Emperor Qianling answered, "He told me personally." ”

Zhaoyu was very surprised, "How is this possible?" I have exhausted my punishment, and he will not speak. ”

"He said that Jing'er would soon be burned to ashes, and this is the clue he inadvertently revealed!"

Emperor Qianling said firmly.

"In winter, you have to burn a fire to keep warm, and a big living person can't be put in wood or coal, but most likely in a wooden box, and then transported to a certain place to burn it...... You say, where did you put a box and burn it so that it would not arouse suspicion? ”

The three of them were slightly stunned, glanced at each other, and Qi Wushuang was the first to react, "Today is the day of spring...... The wooden box where Ye Jingjing was placed was placed next to the 'Spring Festival'?! ”

Spring Day is a festival unique to the Great Calendar and is held on the day before the beginning of spring.

At this time, every household has to put some garbage in a box and take it to the backyard or on the street to burn it, which means that the old things will pass away with the fire and welcome the new year happily.

Sometimes some families are reluctant to light a fire, and there may be people in the neighborhood who burn the fire very strongly, so they will gather together to burn the garbage, and over time a custom has formed.

Large families or villages will light a grand flame, and there are naturally many things to burn, which is the "spring fire".

Zhaoyu and Dijia are in Yunwu all the year round, and they don't spend much time on this kind of festival, so they naturally don't care about today's day, so Qi Wushuang was the first to react.

However, thinking of this kind of thing, Qi Wushuang's face became even more gloomy, "So, Ye Jingjing is in danger?!" We have to find her quickly! ”

Emperor Qianling looked at Emperor Jianian, "Brother Huang, does your family have this custom?" ”

Emperor Jianian scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Your Majesty, the foolish brother lives in Yunwu all the year round, and he considers himself a Uighur habit, of course he has no ......."

"Lord Qiqi, a few brothers lit the spring fire today, saying that they were going to celebrate the spring day."

At this point, one of the guards said cautiously.

Di Jianian's eyebrows immediately twisted into a pimple, "Bastard!" Such an important matter, why didn't you tell this king earlier?! ”

"They say it's all Han customs, and it's just a little thing, so I don't have to tell you......"

The guard said with a sad face.

"We didn't expect Uncle Zhang to take advantage of this time to ......"

"Fool, take us there!"

When the group came to the most remote courtyard in a rage, the guards were taken aback.

They thought that they had been discovered secretly holding a Spring Festival and were going to be punished by Emperor Jianian, so they hurriedly knelt on the ground and were about to apologize, but they heard Emperor Qianling ask, "What did you all burn?!" ”

"Back to the emperor, nothing ......," said one of the guards tremblingly. It's not easy to light a fire in winter, we just burned a few clothes......"

Emperor Qianling was overjoyed, knowing that Ye Jingjing was still saved, so he hurriedly asked people to open those big boxes.

The guards did so, however, each box was open and looked like garbage, and even if it was turned over, there was no trace of Ye Jingjing.

Looking at such a result, Di Qianling's pupils suddenly tightened, "How is this possible?!" Jing'er is not there......"

Emperor Jianian said cautiously, "Your Majesty, may you have misjudged ......?"

"He said he wanted to turn Jing'er into ashes."

Emperor Qianling repeated Uncle Zhang's words.

"He certainly wouldn't dare to swagger and light a fire, that would be too big; If we were caught, it was impossible to do it yourself, so we could only take advantage of the fact that today was a spring day and let others burn things! ”

"But Ye Jingjing is not here." Qi Wushuang frowned.
