Chapter 18: Escape from the Fire

Unexpectedly, he smiled, "Don't worry, it's not worth so much to sell you."

"Heh, what do you want?"

He sat up and almost hit her in the face, but despite her knee-jerk reaction, she inevitably brushed the tip of his nose and almost touched the other's lips.

Both of them were stunned, looking at themselves projected in each other's pupils, they didn't react for a long time, time seemed to have pressed the pause button at this moment, and only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard quietly around.

His eyes are very familiar, so if you look at it, you will be attracted to it and fall into it, she was shocked, she retracted her gaze uncomfortably, stood up and walked to the side, covering her chest with a rapid heartbeat, and she couldn't speak.

"You, or not, there's nothing else to do"

"Say, you are not a nosy person, why did you risk your life three times and twice to save the emperor?" He asked suddenly.

"What does the prince suspect me when he asks this?"

"You only appeared in Baijia Village two months ago, and you are not from Baijia Village, so you can't find any clues before this, if you don't deliberately conceal it, how can you not find out your identity?"

She came from the future, and of course he couldn't find out everything about her, and now it was his reason to suspect her, and she couldn't explain it.

"You can follow what you like, the pure one will clear himself, I have nothing to say"

"You'd better not deceive the king"

"What will happen to you if I cheat you?"

He came to her side, picked up a handful of her hair, hooked her lips slightly, but there was a dangerous killing intent in his eyes, and said, "Whoever deceives this king, this king will kill her with his own hands"

She believed he could do it.

Shanjing County was hit by floods, the embankment was ruptured, and the river poured so that the crops were flooded, and there was no harvest this year, and the people were only hungry.

The emperor immediately ordered King An to bring grain to Shanjing County to help the people and ask for the embankment to be repaired for the people, which was both a punishment and a humiliation.

In fact, such things only need to be ordered to the petty officials to go, King An is both the prince and the general of the town, and the people who go to the battlefield to kill the enemy go to repair the river embankment for the people, and anyone will think that the emperor is deliberately embarrassing King An.

Thinking that he once said that "what does it matter to other people's life and death", she thought that King An was not the kind of person who was sympathetic to the people and would not agree to go to repair the embankment, but to her surprise, King An not only did not object, but also asked to leave early.

He Zhao and Mianyue were packing up their gifts, while he sat on the side and quietly looked through the books in his hand, and when she walked into the room and found that Mianyue was packing her clothes, she sighed in her heart and had a bad premonition.

"Lord, you go to the relief of the people to repair the river embankment, and it is not appropriate for me to accompany a daughter, right?"

"Don't want to go?"

"Hmm"

He put down the book, then raised his eyes to look at her, and said slowly, "Reason"

Still need a reason? I just don't want to go with him.

"If I tell the reason, can I stay in the palace?"

"No, you can't"

“…… Then why should the prince ask more?"

"The king just wants to hear what kind of reasons you can come up with"

"If you don't want to go, you don't want to go, the so-called reasons are all excuses, if the prince has to listen, I can naturally do it"

The corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "No need"

"Lord, princess, the things have been packed, the carriage is ready, do you want to leave now?" He Zhao walked over and raised his hand respectfully.

"Departure"

It takes two days to drive to Shanjing County, and people have been sent to escort the grain to Shanjing County to solve the problem of food and clothing for the people first.

They went in another carriage, and the carriage was so quiet that no one spoke, so she leaned on his shoulder and took a nap.

After a day's journey, the sky gradually darkened, so she had to rest at an inn along the way, they were husband and wife naturally to sleep in the same room, and she had no opinion on this.

"Lord Wang, you sleep in the bed, so where do I sleep?" But he occupied the whole bed, and she had a big opinion.

"Now know that shyness? It's not like I haven't slept either."

The bed in the palace is so big that it is no problem to sleep four or five people, so she doesn't mind sleeping in a bed with him, but this bed is too crowded for two people to sleep together, so wouldn't she want to sleep with him? How can it!

She resolutely walked to the table and set up a row of stools, and lay down on it. King An looked at her and closed his eyes without saying much.

Halfway through the night, quiet all around, only the wind outside the window could hear the rustling of leaves, she walked to the bedside to watch his sleeping face for a moment, leaned over and pulled the futon to help him cover it, and then left the room.

However, as she closed the door, the person on the bed somehow opened his eyes and looked at the empty stools arranged in a row and fell into deep thought.

"We're all set, let's do it"

"This matter must be done neatly and neatly, and no one can be left alive"

"Understood"

"Bring the Misty Sleep Incense, just in case"

Everyone assigned the task and started to act, and at night it was when people were asleep, and these people didn't know where they came from, and they all went to the second floor.

She came out of the latrine just in time to hear their conversation, and she wanted to take the opportunity to leave, but she found that the target of these people was not someone else, but her and An Wang's room.

After thinking for a moment, she finally followed, improvising.

The two sneaked to the door of the room, and one blew the sleeping incense into it from the window paper, and pulled out the dagger he carried with him to open the bolt against the lock, but accidentally found that the door was unlocked.

She watched the man go in, and another person was outside the door, and she couldn't get any closer, and she didn't know what was going on inside.

After a while, the man who had gone in came out again, nodded to the man who was in charge of the wind, and quickly withdrew from the place, and after everyone had gathered, deliberately knocked down the candle and lit the veil.

The fire quickly spread and drowned the entire inn in flames, and she kicked open the door with her sleeve over her mouth and nose, and when she saw the motionless person lying on the bed, she hurried over.

"Sang Hua, wake up!"

No matter how she shook or screamed, he didn't react at all, seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the smoke was billowing out, choking her a little uncomfortable, and if they continued like this, they would definitely die here, and they didn't have time to think about it, so he rushed out unconscious.

"Lord Wang!" He Zhao ran over with Mianyue, who was also unconscious, on his back, with an anxious face.

"It's too late, let's get out of the inn first"

She dodged the falling fire stake, and it seemed a little difficult to carry him on her back, but she could barely cope with it, He Zhao was a lot easier, and she reached the exit in a few jumps.

"Leave us alone, you go first," she shouted to He Zhao, who was hesitating at the exit.

"The princess holds on, He Zhao will come later"

Seeing He Zhao disappear from sight, she could have thrown away the burden on her body and escaped by herself, but she didn't.

Because his body is extremely cold at the moment, and he can't resist the cold emanating from his body through his clothes, she can naturally feel it next to her, he must have had a cold attack! At this time, she can't leave him alone!

"If you can't hold out until He Zhao arrives, I might as well throw you directly into the fire, otherwise I will save you and affect me."

"Stupid"

The person on his back suddenly spoke, raised his hand and used his palm wind to open a path in the sea of fire, and seeing that she did not move, he collapsed and said, "Are you stunned and waiting for death?" ”

She rolled her eyes and quickly fled the fire.

As soon as she got out of the inn, she hurriedly asked He Zhao to place the mulberry painting in the carriage, checked his pulse, and felt that this attack was very strange, less than a month after the last illness, how could it be so sudden?

It was as if something had stimulated the chill in his body.

If you want to suppress this swaying cold, her blood alone is far from enough, but where can she find medicine in this wilderness?

"He Zhao, where is the earth fire gall? Do you have a belt? ”

"Here"

She took it directly, stuffed it into his mouth but couldn't put it in, didn't hesitate too much, took it in her mouth, lowered her head and stuck to his cold lips, and fed him forcefully into her mouth.

Then he hugged his body tightly, used his body temperature to force back his cold air, raised his eyes and saw He Zhao's shocked look, and said unhappily

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and find a family to get a few quilts for your prince to wrap in"

"Yes, yes, yes" He Zhao was yelled at by her, and immediately jumped out of the carriage to look for quilts.

Holding him like this was like holding an ice cube, freezing her all over, and praying in her heart that I hoped that the earth fire gall would work and ease the speed of the cold air, at least then he would be saved.

"Princess, the quilt has been brought"

Within half an hour, He Zhao rushed back with a few quilts, hurriedly wrapped his own prince, looked at the princess who was cold and purple, and said worriedly

"Princess, are you alright?"

She rubbed her frozen hands, and it took a long time to warm up, and when she turned on the switch of the bracelet on her wrist, the sharp blade was suddenly revealed, and she slashed the other hand, making an extremely deep cut.

"Princess!" He Zhao exclaimed, he didn't expect the princess to be so cruel to him.
