Chapter 198: Escape from the wildfire
There was silence in the royal hunting grounds. The emperor sat on a red horse. Behind him, the Wuji Daoist rode a white horse.
"Father! I invited Chen Yi here! The second prince turned over and dismounted to salute the emperor.
Chen Yi sat on the horse and was stunned. He saw the elder brother behind the emperor. Master Jia was also stunned when he saw Chen Yi. He immediately shook his head at Chen Yi.
When the emperor saw Chen Yi stunned and looked at the Wuji Daoist behind him, he said, "He is my fellow practitioner Wuji Daoist. ”
Chen Yi felt that he had lost his manners and hurriedly dismounted to salute the emperor.
"With you two by my side, I will surely catch more prey today!" The emperor said and motioned for the second prince and Chen Yi to get on the horse.
The three princes came to see the emperor accompanied by Gongzi Qingqian. When the emperor saw that everyone had arrived, he announced the start of the hunt.
Zhao Gonggong read out the rules of the hunt and the rewards for winning at the top of his voice.
Everyone looked at the flag in the emperor's hand, and everyone was eager to try.
The second prince gave an order: "The hunt begins!" The hunters on all sides rushed into their chosen hunting grounds. The second prince and the prince Jinqi and others have been drowned in the smoke and dust raised by the horse's hooves.
Rouxin pulled up the face towel and followed closely behind Gongzi Jinyan. Feng Yan rode his horse and galloped to the right of Gongzi Jin.
The second prince and his guard Yang Lin led the way. The second prince found the prey, took a bow and shot an arrow and hit! Yang Lin held the prey high and ran over and threw it into the hunting bag of the second prince.
Childe Jin fired three arrows in succession, shooting down the falcon in the sky. Rouxin also hunted a lot of small prey.
The group of the second prince returned with a full load. They counted and turned in their lists. Then the five of them rushed to the next hunting ground.
Rouxin looked around, but didn't see Gongzi Qingqian and the third prince coming to hunt.
Gongzi Qingqian and the third prince had no intention of winning at all. After hunting some small game, they sat down under a tree to rest.
From time to time, Hanguang and Liu Tao set up bows and arrows to hunt some nearby prey that fled in panic.
"Childe! There's a fire over there! Liu Tao, who was standing on the tree, pointed to the South Hunting Ground and shouted.
"Let's go to the home court to see if the emperor is safe and sound!" Gongzi Qingqian pulled up the three princes. Everyone got on their horses and galloped.
The third prince saw his father, accompanied by Chen Yi and Wuji Daoren, sitting on the high platform of the main arena and drinking tea, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.
"Father! The South Hunting Ground is on fire! The third prince ran up to the high platform.
"It's easy to catch fire this season! Notify everyone to come back! The emperor stood up.
A high-spirited hunt ended in a fire. Everyone returned to the palace to check the number of people, and the five princes of the second prince and the second son of Liu Hou did not return.
The emperor was busy ordering the three princes to take people to find it. Gongzi Qingqian followed the side of the third prince, worried about Rouxin.
Rouxin and the others did hunt in the South Hunting Ground. The second prince chased a wild wolf and galloped on his horse. Gongzi Jinqi and others followed.
They chased them to a cliff and reined in their horses' heads. The wolf knew that his life was in danger, and he raised his head and howled.
Yang Lin shot an arrow through the throat of the wild wolf. The wolf snorted and fell down the cliff. At this time, Rouxin smelled a smell of fireworks.
"Not good! Walk the water! Feng Yan shouted as he looked at the billowing smoke under the mountain.
The second prince and others were very surprised, this mountain forest has issued a fire ban, who dares to bring fire privately?
"What to do? The smoke is getting louder! It's an upwind outlet, but sooner or later the fire will burn here! The second prince felt that he was running out of breath.
"Feng Yan, can you throw your whip rope to the tree on the other side?" Gongzi Jinqi asked, pointing to an upside-down pine tree on the other side of the cliff.
"Not long enough!" Feng Yan untied the braided rope around his waist and looked at it.
"Belt!" Childe Jin looked at Rouxin.
The belt of the soft heart is relatively long. Feng Yan tied the whip rope and belt in one place, and then threw it onto the tree on the opposite side and swung it violently.
Rouxin couldn't help but exclaim. Feng Yan tied the braided rope to the tree, and then he climbed the cliff face opposite.
Gongzi Jinyan caught the braided rope that Feng Yan threw over and tied it to a thick tree. Then he turned his head to look at the second prince.
Although the second prince's kung fu was good, he was still stunned when he looked at the darkness under the cliff.
The fire has spread. Seeing that the second prince was reluctant to go up, Gongzi Jinqian said, "Keep up!" ”
Gongzi Jinfei was put on a whip rope, and the second prince had no choice but to step on the braided rope and walk briskly.
The braided rope suddenly trembled, and the second prince panicked. It's unsteady on your feet.
Gongzi Jinqi grabbed the arm of the second prince and dragged him over.
Yang Lin looked at Rouxin. Gently lifting her breath and flying on the whip rope, she swept over like a swallow.
Yang Lin couldn't help but secretly applaud in his heart. He stepped over the rope on Limbo.
Feng Yan untied the whip rope, pulled out the dagger from his waist and threw it. Rouxin's clothes belt broke, and the rope was braided into Feng Yan's hands.
The top of the cliff where Rouxin and the others were standing just now had become a sea of fire.
"It's dangerous!" The second prince wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"This is no accident!" Gongzi Jin looked coldly at the sky-high flames on the opposite side.
"You mean the wildfire is coming at me?" The second prince took a handkerchief and looked at Gongzi Jinqian in surprise. The three of them also took a look.
"This Wuji should be eliminated!" Gongzi Jinqian pursed his mouth after speaking.
Only then did everyone know that this matter was caused by the Wuji Dao people. But the second prince couldn't figure out why the Wuji Dao people would die to their deaths?
"Why did he do that?" The second prince finally asked.
"If he is a remnant of the Weihong organization, you are the most likely person to inherit the throne. So isn't it enough to control the emperor and kill the most capable prince? Gongzi Jin's words made everyone pause.
"I'm afraid he's very proud now!" The second prince hated the authentic.
"Maybe he's not the only one who is happy!" Childe Jin looked meaningfully at the still unabated fire.
The third prince took Gongzi Qingqian to the South Hunting Ground, and the soldiers who fought the fire were all dark.
"Have you seen the second prince?" The third prince grabbed a soldier and asked.
"Back to the three princes! With such a big mountain fire, if the second prince is really inside, I'm afraid it will be more than lucky! ”
"Impossible!" The third prince was stunned!
"This fire can't be extinguished for ten days and a half. Please ask the third prince to go back and restore his life! Childe Qingqian persuaded. Although he didn't believe that the second prince, Gongzi Jinqian and Rouxin and others had already died in the fire. But it is true that as the soldier said, there is no way that the people trapped in the South Hunting Ground will survive!
In the Zhenghe Palace, the emperor sat on the throne and waited anxiously for news. Chen Yi and Wuji Daoren are separated on both sides.
When the emperor saw that the three princes and others had returned, he got up and asked. The third prince replied according to the prince's shallow instructions: "The mountain fire is not extinguished, and it is impossible to detect the situation inside!" ”
The emperor felt that his chest was clogged, and he sat down slowly.
"Your Majesty! You might as well go back and rest! As soon as there is news, the old slave will be the first to communicate. Gonggong Zhao was worried that the emperor's body would not be able to bear it, so he persuaded him.
"Father! This fire cannot be extinguished anytime soon! Your body is important, so let's go and rest! The third prince said.
"I'm afraid this person won't come back!" As soon as Wuji Daoren's words were finished, the emperor began to vomit blood. Gonggong Zhao hurriedly sent someone to pass on the imperial doctor. After checking the pulse, the doctor knelt on the ground.
"Am I dying?" The emperor took a sip of water, rinsed his mouth and asked.
"If the emperor takes this medicine, he will improve!" Wuji Daoist put a pill into the emperor's mouth. The emperor swallowed it without hesitation.
"What did you give my father to eat? It can't be poison! The second prince and his entourage entered the Zhenghe Palace.
