With the return of the Crown Prince, there was a huge commotion.
"Oh! Crown Prince? There is no Crown Prince in this dynasty. Then this Crown Prince can only be that big madman from the previous dynasty? "
"But didn't everyone say that the ghost of that crazy Crown Prince is in Xiahou Shizi's body? Why did he return? What's going on? "
While everyone was still in shock, a horse galloped over like a bolt of lightning and shouted, "Reporting! After the earthquake in Huguo Temple, the lotus flowers in front of the temple withered in an instant, revealing a Buddha's head stone from the bottom of the pond. On the back of the stone, there were four words written: Bathing in Fire Will Emerge.
Xiao Yunyi, who was watching the fire from a close distance, was stunned for a moment with the fire still burning in his hand. Then he instantly understood. But before he could say anything, an endless stream of "Reporting —" came from all directions, fiercely attacking the weak minds of the people.
"Reporting — Your Majesty! Something happened at the Imperial Ancestral Temple! Emperor Gaozu's portrait burned without any wind! "
"Reporting — all the fish in Penglai Lake are dead!"
"Reporting —"
This continuous "Reporting" was like a bomb exploding among the people. Cao Hou wanted to order people to calm the panic at all costs, but the galloping horse's hooves suppressed all the voices she had hidden among the people.
"Heavens! Heavens! An earthquake has caused so many ominous signs. This is clearly a sign from the heavens, warning us that if people are really burned to death, that crazy Crown Prince will be able to do whatever he wants after breaking free from his physical body! If this is true, then it will be terrible! Don't burn it! Don't burn it! "
"Right, don't burn it! Don't burn it! "
"Let him live!"
"Let him live!"
Seeing that the people's screams were getting louder and louder, they rushed towards the fire. Even the guards who had drawn their swords could not stop them. Seeing that the situation was about to go out of control, Tian Ze Emperor had no choice but to stand up and order, "Extinguish the fire! Bring him out for Zhen! If he is burned to death, it is your life! Yunyi, what are you doing? We are talking about you! "
Even though the torch in his hand was extremely unwilling, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart. Gritting his teeth, he waved his veiny hand and ordered his subordinates, "Didn't you hear Imperial Father's words? Drag him out! I want him alive! "
"Yes!" These people, who had just spent a lot of effort to set up the fire, now swarmed over to put out the fire and save Xiahou Qing at the risk of being burned to death. Their armor was scorched and they were in a sorry state. Several of them were scalded before they managed to unlock the iron lock and drag Xiahou Qing out. The flame had already reached his feet and was climbing up his robe. 'Splash!' He splashed a basin of cold water over it in a panic, as if he was trying to save his own father.
Xiao Yunyi frowned and looked down with a cold expression. "How is she?"
The Vice Envoy stretched out two fingers to check for breathing. "Still breathing."
The veins on Xiao Yunyi's hand almost exploded. He shook off his hand and turned to bow to Heaven Choice Emperor expressionlessly. "Reporting to Imperial Father, Xiahou Qing's life is not in danger."
Heaven Choice Emperor sighed and sat back down. "That's good, that's good." Just two short sentences made him extremely tired. He turned back to look at Cao Hou. "Empress, what should we do now? You should make the decision. "
Killing was not something that could be done now. Otherwise, the public opinion would not be suppressed. Since the person behind the scenes had arranged so many tricks, once Xiahou Qing died, there would be more and more movements. Then when the time came, whoever gave the order to kill Xiahou Qing would be the enemy of the people.
She had arranged for the saber to stab at Xiahou Qing, but she never expected it to stab back at her with the same move. Who was the person who had directed all of this? Ning Shu? Did she not die? That was impossible! She had seen her corpse lying in front of her with her own eyes and then told Yunyi to take care of that rotten corpse. But if it was not her, who else could it be?!
Unless …
Xiao Yunyi's expression was extremely dark as he stared at Xiahou Qing, who had escaped death once again. Before he could figure out what to do next, he suddenly felt his eyelid twitch and saw his mother's cold gaze landing on him.
