Chapter 70 Blown up and escaped from prison, the Queen Mother was worried
In the cell, the sky-high fire was as hideous as a roaring dragon, and every brick and tile was the shackles that imprisoned the dragon, and as the dragon broke free, it disintegrated and collapsed inch by inch.
The night, illuminated by the sky-high fire, the moonlight was engulfed in flames, distorting the distance between time and space, blurring the terrified faces.
The horse's hooves struck the brick road, swept through the street at a rapid pace, and gradually disappeared at the end of the corner.
A basin of clean water could not extinguish this sky-high fire, and the crackling explosion sound was like the roar of a fire dragon, and the fire became more and more intense.
The fire burned the entire night sky, and it was not until the morning sun broke through the clouds that this sudden but fierce fire was extinguished.
Thick smoke rose into the sky, drifting away with the breeze.
"Back to the emperor, the fire has been extinguished, but none of the prisoners in the cell survived, and all the guards were killed." Qian Aolin stayed awake all night, he mobilized the Royal Forest Army to save the life, and in the end, it was still like this.
In that cell, not only Su Hu and Zhao Lin were imprisoned, but also the only son of the general Hua Junyang, Hua Fengyang.
The other prisoners died when they died, but Hua Fengyang and Zhao Lin .......
Qian Aolin had never been so angry as he was now, how could the cell catch fire for no reason? It's at this time, at this juncture.
Cining Palace, when the Queen Mother heard about last night's fire, she shook her hand with Buddha beads for a slight pause, and then continued to recite the scriptures silently as if nothing happened.
Most of the incense on the table was missing, and the Queen Mother stood up and said to Mama Qin: "Mama Qin, go with the mourning family to see Mei'er." ”
Mama Qin said yes, and sent someone to prepare a sedan chair, but was stopped by the Queen Mother: "It's not far, you can go with the mourning family." ”
Mama Qin lowered her eyes, and answered in a low voice, the Queen Mother raised her hand and put her hand on Mama Qin's hand, and the string of green jade beads hanging on her chest rubbed against the phoenix embroidered with gold thread on her body as she walked.
Several palace maids followed behind him, all the way.
"The Queen Mother, Wanfu Jin'an."
Pinglanxuan, where the flower shadow ghost lived, the maid and eunuch bowed to the queen mother.
The Queen Mother waved her hand casually, and then asked, "What about Mei'er's girl?" But haven't gotten up yet? ”
The palace maids and eunuchs stood up, and when they heard the Queen Mother's question, one of the big maids replied respectfully: "If you return to the Queen Mother, Miss Hua should not have gotten up yet, and Qiu'er takes care of her on weekdays. ”
The Queen Mother nodded: "Then the mourning family will wait." ”
The palace maid and eunuch of Lan Xuan did not dare to slack off and hurriedly led the way, Qiu'er stayed in the outer room, quiet early in the morning, and heard the sound of the Queen Mother Wan An outside.
"Miss, miss."
Qiu'er looked at the hour, and her young lady should wake up at this hour every day, so she knocked on the door and shouted.
No one answered for a long time, Qiu'er was a little worried, and just when she was hesitating to push the door and go in to have a look, her own young lady's voice came from inside.
"Qiu'er, go get me a basin of water."
"Hey!" Qiu'er Qiaosheng agreed, her worried mood was swept away, she was just a little strange, why did Miss's voice sound a little tired?
Flower Shadow Charm rubbed her sore head and sat up from the bed, her thoughts going back to last night, when she received the news that she had rushed to the cell with Shura.
"Someone got into the prison?"
When Flower Shadow and Shura arrived, the jailer guarding the cell had already fallen to the ground, and she crouched down and probed their noses, not dead, probably fainting.
The flask on the square table lay horizontally on the table, and the wine was scattered on the table, dripping to the ground along the lines of the table.
I think I was drugged.
She glanced at Shura, the dim cell smelling damp and rotten, snakes, insects, rats and ants entrenched in dark corners, and the middle narrow walk was covered with dry straw.
The rustle of feet on the dead grass came from far and near, and Flower Shadow and Shura glanced at each other, both seeing the heaviness in each other's eyes.
She turned around and pulled the key from the jailer's body, glanced at Shura, unlocked the lock, dodged, closed the door, all in one go, Shura had already guessed her thoughts when she started, and the moment she opened the door of the cell, she rushed in.
The chains were on the cell door, and she and Shura lay on the ground, hidden in the dark shadows.
Gradually, she tilted her head slightly, and through the faint candlelight, she faintly spied on the few people who were hurrying past her eyes.
Although the light was dim, she recognized two of the five.
Hua Fengyang and Zhao Lin!
"Escort them away." The black man at the head said softly.
"Yes!" The two black-clothed men left with Hua Fengyang and Zhao Lin, and the black-clothed men led by them picked up the unopened wine on the table, pierced the oil paper pasted at the mouth of the wine jug, and spilled the wine on the withered grass on the ground, and then he picked up the candlestick on the table, raised it to his chest, and let go.
With a "boom", the flames met the dry straw stained with spirits, and the fire was fierce and out of control.
"Shura, keep up with him." The man in black turned away, and the flower shadow stood up with a carp, staring deeply at the direction of the man in black.
"You leave as soon as possible." Shura left a word, and his body disappeared from the sight of the flower shadow over the flames that burned more and more.
Flower Shadow pushed open the door of the cell, but instead of listening to Shura's words and leaving, she turned and walked towards the depths of the cell.
Su Hu should still be in prison.
.....
"Crunch" Qiu'er entered the room with a copper basin, and the sound of pushing the door interrupted Hua Ying's thoughts.
Qiu'er put the copper basin on the basin rack, stepped forward to dress the flower shadow ghost, and said while tying the belt on the dress: "Miss, the Queen Mother is waiting for you in the side hall." ”
Flower Shadow was slightly stunned, so early!?
Fastening her belt, Qiu raised her head, and the dark circles under the eyes of the flower shadow made Qiu'er ask worriedly: "Miss, is the wound painful again, so you didn't sleep well at night?" ”
Flower Shadow Charm smiled and comforted, and after washing, Qiu'er helped her to walk to the side hall.
"Mei'er greets the imperial grandmother." Hua Yingmei stepped into the door, looked at the Queen Mother who was sitting on a high seat, and greeted her vividly.
"Help your young lady sit down quickly." The Queen Mother saw that Hua Yingmei actually got out of bed, and hurriedly asked Qiu'er to help her sit on the chair.
Then he said with some complaints: "You girl, if you wake up and let your subordinates know, why do you still get up by yourself." ”
Hua Ying Mei smiled and said: "Mei'er is tired of lying down, taking advantage of the light of the imperial grandmother to get up and move, if I don't get up again, my body will be moldy." ”
"You." The Queen Mother knew that it was the Flower Shadow Phantom coaxing her, so she couldn't help but smile and shake her head.
"Grandmother Huang hasn't had breakfast yet, Qiu'er, go to the small kitchen and let the master cook something delicious." Hua Yingmei glanced at the Queen Mother, then turned her head and ordered Qiu'er to send her down.
"Go down too." The Queen Mother then sent the servants who were waiting on the side.
Mama Qin closed the door knowingly, and stood at the door silently.
The Queen Mother looked at the flower shadow and sighed for no reason: "Mei'er, you told the imperial grandmother that you set the fire in the cell last night?" ”
"It's not!" Hua Yingmei didn't expect the Queen Mother to ask so directly, she was slightly stunned, and then replied very sincerely.
"It's fine." The Queen Mother was really relieved when she heard Hua Yingmei's answer. The fire killed all the inmates in the cell, including Hua Fengyang and Zhao Lin. With Qian Aolin's suspicious character, anyone who is suspicious will be put in his heart, and naturally there will be no lack of charm.
"Mei'er, the mourning family knows that you are different from ordinary girls, and the mourning family will not stop you from doing anything you want, but there is only one thing, when your wings are not yet full, you must do a forbearance word."
"Heh~" After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she chuckled: "The mourning family is really confused, you have been doing a good job of this word." ”
The Queen Mother naturally heard what she had done over the years, and couldn't help but sigh a little, if she hadn't endured it so much, even if her son hadn't killed her, he would never have let her have a good time.
The Queen Mother's heartfelt words made the heart of the flower shadow surge into a warm current, the old man stared at her eyes full of pampering and care, the flower shadow ghost was a little sour, in the past and present life, when did she feel such warmth.
Family, that's her unreachable existence. But at this time, she felt the warmth of her family in this old man's body.
Flower Shadow Charm stepped forward to hold the hand of the Queen Mother, her hand was a little dry, the years will never pity the world, let alone slow down because of the world.
On the wrinkled face, you can vaguely see the traces of the past, and the flower shadow thinks that when the Queen Mother was young, she must have been a peerless beauty.
"Imperial grandmother doesn't have to worry about me, but you, don't worry too much." Hua Yingmei comforted that the Queen Mother's health has not been good, if it is because she is working too hard, it is her fault.
The Queen Mother responded with relief, and her eyes looking at the flower shadow were full of soft light.
Hua Yingmei didn't mention last night's incident to the Queen Mother, if she knew that Hua Fengyang and Zhao Lin were blown up and escaped, she must have worried about her safety again.
The Queen Mother and Flower Shadow Charm talked a little more, and after breakfast, she told Flower Shadow Charm to rest, and then left Pinglan Xuan.
Flower Shadow returns to the room, and draws a pen to the appearance of the man in black at the head, although he is masked, but Flower Shadow is confident that if she sees him, she will be able to recognize him.
A hundred miles away from the capital, a horse-drawn carriage was running rapidly on the road.
"Phew~" The coachman tightened the reins, the horse's front hooves were raised, and he stopped running after a neigh.
The carriage stopped in front of a courtyard.
With a "crunch", the door was opened from the inside, and the man who came out glanced at the carriage: "Come in!" ”
One hand lifted the curtain of the carriage, Hua Fengyang jumped off the carriage, Zhao Lin held the wound, refused the coachman's support, and walked off the carriage with a cold face.
