Ming Xi didn't think that he had misjudged someone, but he couldn't find that figure anymore. He had a very deep impression of that youth. In Cang Hai City, he didn't even know that he had been injured in order to save someone. Moreover, he was quiet and silent, exuding a sorrowful loneliness. No one knew what had happened to him.
The young man seemed to have said that his name was Guan Jie.
"Brother, what are you looking at?" Ming Yu walked out of the teahouse and saw Ming Xi standing by the door. She followed his gaze and looked towards the crowd, wondering what he was looking at so intently.
"It's nothing." Ming Xi said, "Let's go up."
They sat in the teahouse for a short while before the sky darkened. After dinner, Ming Xi took them to the temple square to watch the lantern show. It was not until the first flower appeared on the other side of the city wall that they came out of the city wall.
The tall city wall was speckled with rust. Three men wearing straw hats and sheepskin jackets stood at the bottom of the city wall. When they threw a ladle of molten iron onto the city wall, pearl-sized red water droplets exploded into clusters of small umbrella-shaped golden sparks, spreading in all directions along the city wall. The audience let out cries of surprise at the same time.
"Wow, so beautiful, so beautiful!" This was the first time Ming Yu had seen such a scene, and she exclaimed in admiration, clapping her hands.
Shang'er had never seen it before, so she stared unblinkingly at the blooming flowers on the tree.
"They are standing in the middle of the trees and flowers. Won't they be scalded?" Ming Yu asked curiously.
Ming Xi smiled and said, "The clothes they're wearing can prevent those metal flowers from injuring them."
"Why aren't they releasing fireworks?" Ming Yu asked curiously. There wasn't much difference between flowers and fireworks.
"How can commoners afford to buy fireworks?" Ming Xi said in a low voice. "It's already pretty good to be able to watch the trees and flowers."
Bang!
Suddenly, the iron stove in the middle of the tree and flowers made a loud noise.
The flowers on the trees fell brilliantly, the iron furnaces exploded in all directions, and hot iron flowers shot towards the crowd.
"Ahhh, it's so hot!" The commoners who were standing in front shouted. Soon, their bodies were on fire.
"Mingxi …" Ming Yu's expression changed.
The three who attacked Shu Hua were also engulfed in flames.
"Huo 'er, save them!" Ming Xi immediately shouted. "Ming Yu, stay by Jin' er's side. Hurry and hide at the back."
"I'll bring Mingyu to the back." Shang'er said. If Ming Xi had not used his spiritual energy to block the flowers, Ming Yu, who was standing at the very front, would have been scalded.
Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix immediately went forward to save them.
The originally bustling base of the city wall was thrown into chaos. The people standing at the back knew that something had happened in front of them and were in a hurry to escape. Many people were squeezed to the ground.
"Help, help …" The commoners who were on fire let out miserable cries.
Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix had already gone forward to save them.
Shang'er held Ming Yu's hand and dodged the crowd. Hugging her, they flew above the crowd and sent her to safety.
"..." Ming Yu looked at Shang'er in shock. She had always known that Shang'er was not as simple as Ming Xi had said, but she did not know that Shang'er knew martial arts.
No, that's not right. Shang 'er was flying with her, just like how the Fire Phoenix had carried her.
"San 'er, it's fine for me to stay here. Hurry up and help Mingxi and the others save them," Ming Yu said to San' er.
"If I go and help Mingxi, what about you?" Shang'er looked around. She had sent Ming Yu up the city wall to avoid the stampeding crowd, so there should be no danger.
Ming Yu said, "What could happen to me? The city wall is full of guards. Hurry up and help Mingxi."
What's more, there were definitely hidden guards arranged by her Imperial Father, so there shouldn't be any danger.
"Okay, then I'll go first." Shang'er nodded and flew down the city wall.
A few hidden guards rushed up to protect Ming Yu just in time to see this scene. They were shocked and felt that this little girl's qinggong was too good.
Below the city wall, the screams became more and more desperate. Although Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix had saved a few people, there were too many people who had been hit by the iron splatter. Moreover, the crowd was too chaotic, so it made it more difficult to save people.
Some soldiers had already arrived and were helping Ming Xi and the others save people.
Fortunately, there was a moat near the city wall, so it was easier for them to get water.
"Why did the iron furnace suddenly explode?" Fire Phoenix asked while saving people, "How many people did it burn to death?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Ming Xi said in a low voice. He had never heard of an iron furnace that hit trees and flowers exploding, so he didn't know if it was an accident or man-made.
Shang'er came to their side, "There are so many people being stepped on. If this continues, they will be trampled to death."
"Why are you here? Where's Ming Yu?" Ming Xi asked in surprise.
"I sent her to the city wall. I'll help you." Shang'er said.
Ming Xi looked up at the city wall and indeed saw Ming Yu standing at the side. There were also a few hidden guards standing near her.
"Let's split up and save people." Ming Xi said.
Fire Phoenix said, "We can only put out the fire. We can't treat their injuries."
"This place is very close to the clinic. Let's first send the people there." Ming Xi said, "There are medical officers and female doctors there. There are people everywhere in the city, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to find a doctor."
"Hurry up and send the injured people to the clinic." Fire Phoenix said to the soldiers beside her.
Those soldiers didn't know who Fire Phoenix was. When they heard her order them, their faces showed disdain.
"Send the injured to the clinic." Ming Xi took out the Qin Residence's token.
"Yes!" The soldiers recognized Ming Xi's identity and didn't dare to be negligent.
Ming Xi and Fire Phoenix went to save the people who were trampled.
Just as they were splitting up to save people, Ming Yu came down from the city walls at some point. She could see more clearly from her vantage point. She saw a child being pushed to the side of a burning metal stove. She wanted to call Ming Xi and the others to save him, but they were nowhere to be seen.
She could only run down the city wall by herself. The hidden guards hurriedly stopped her.
"Princess, you stay here. This subordinate will go and save people." The hidden guard said.
Ming Yu's gaze was firm. She saw Ming Xi save one person after another. He was like a shining sun. No matter where he went, he was so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
If he had never left, and had always been the prince of Jin Country, then how dazzling would he be?
She didn't want to always hide behind Ming Xi.
"No need. I'll go." Ming Yu said.
"Your Highness!" The hidden guard hurriedly chased after her.
Just as Ming Yu walked to the side of the child, more than ten black clothed people appeared around them. Each of them held a shiny longsword in their hands.
"Protect the Princess!" A few hidden guards immediately protected Ming Yu behind them.
Ming Yu looked at the black clothed people surprisingly calmly. She immediately understood that everything that happened tonight was because of her.
"Who are you?" Ming Yu asked coldly.
