C234 The Fire Was Fierce and His Life Was in Danger
I don't know what went wrong, but I watched them drink the poisoned liquor and smoke the poisonous smoke.
He inhaled the thick smoke as soon as he opened his mouth. He choked so hard that his throat felt like it was tearing. Yun Sheng could no longer feel the pain on his face. His eyes were red from the smoke. He could only vaguely see Yun Yu's figure.
As for Yun Sheng, there were only a few assassins left. Those who were burned to death were beaten to death by Yu Longchen and Changxu. Right now, Yun Sheng only cared about himself.
He covered his mouth and nose and looked at the shaky wooden door. He crawled a few steps on the ground and slowly stood up. He bent down and was about to leave.
How could Yun Yu let him go? He grabbed his belt from behind and did not let go no matter what.
"You madman! Let go!" Yun Sheng turned around with a ferocious expression. He was ready to kick Yun Yu with his leg. In order to avoid him, Yun Yu could only let go of him.
Yu Longchen dragged his tired body over and kicked Yun Sheng a few meters away. He rolled a few times in the corridor and hit the burning railing.
Changxu felt dizzy. He could still see Yun Sheng. He walked over with heavy steps and gave him another kick. The railing had been burnt to charcoal. This time, the side of the railing broke.
Yun Sheng fell from the second floor and smashed the wooden table that had yet to be burned into pieces.
Yu Longchen was also holding on. Looking at the unconscious Yun Xi in the room, he hesitated for a while and was about to walk in.
Yun Yu half stood up. When he saw that Yu Longchen was about to go in, he wanted to rush in but did not have the strength to do so.
Changxu also followed over and pulled Yu Longchen's sleeve, "Mistress, quickly leave. Lateral Consort Yun, I will save her! The princess is still waiting for you."
Yu Longchen hesitated for a moment and did not care about Changxu's obstruction and was about to walk in.
The beam of the house fell down and blocked the middle of the two. Changxu gritted his teeth and pushed Yu Longchen out, then he rushed in.
Changxu used a lot of strength. Yu Longchen was pushed to the broken railing, and half of his body fell out. Yun Yu took a good look and rushed over. He grabbed Yu Longchen's waist and pulled him up.
But the fire was too strong. The stairs had collapsed. The second floor they were on was going to collapse soon.
Changxu and Yun Xi had not come out yet. They could only see their shadows in the fiery-red flames. Yun Yu also wanted to rush in. How could Yu Longchen let him do something stupid? "They will come out."
Sure enough, Changxu carried Yun Xi out. As soon as he stepped out of the room, the two of them fell heavily on the ground. In the air, besides the smell of smoke, there was also the smell of burnt flesh.
Yun Yu did not care about Changxu. He rushed over to help Yun Xi up and confirmed that she was seriously injured. He carried her and jumped down from the second floor. Because he was busy protecting Yun Xi, he hit a stool and his waist hurt so much that he could not speak.
Yu Longchen helped Changxu up. He did not have time to look and also jumped down from the second floor.
This time, everyone had no strength. They were injured again and could not get up. Yun Sheng was the first to fall down. He had long lost all feeling.
Yu Longchen and Yun Yu dragged the people they cared about and slowly climbed to the door. They had just climbed a few steps when a pillar fell from behind them. If they were a few seconds later, the four of them would have been pressed down.
"Yu Longchen!"
This was a very familiar voice. Yu Longchen slightly raised his head. Before he could see who it was, he only felt his eyes being smoked by the rising smoke, and his body went limp.
Mu Ruqing was originally waiting in the Imperial Residence, but her heart became more and more uneasy. After leaving the Imperial Residence, she called Yuan Zhen, Miao Yingyu, and brought some of the Imperial Residence's hidden guards over.
Along the way, she met another wave of people. After fighting for a long time, everyone's body was covered in bruises. Before she reached the post house, she saw a huge fire from afar. Mu Ruqing only felt flustered. She did not care about anything and rushed over with her people.
There were already many people surrounding the post house. Most of them were to put out the fire. Everyone was busy. The sound of their voices in the burning house sounded insignificant.
Lord Mayor was commanding people to put out the fire. He sent a few people in, but before they could enter, they were forced back by the fire.
"Is anyone coming out?" Mu Ruqing grabbed Lord Mayor's clothes and looked like she wanted to kill him.
"No!" Lord Mayor was also anxious. He had already forgotten the etiquette.
Mu Ruqing's heart skipped a beat. She snatched the water from a commoner and poured it all over her head. Her entire body was drenched.
"Qing, it's dangerous!" Yuan Zhen and Miao Yingyu grabbed her at the same time.
Mu Ruqing could not care less. She threw away their hands and rushed in.
"Quick, protect the princess!" Yuan Zhen followed Mu Ruqing's actions and drenched himself. He called a few guards and was about to go in.
Seeing Miao Yingyu's action, he anxiously said, "Don't go in. It is too dangerous. When they are rescued, I still need you to look at your injuries!"
Miao Yingyu understood his meaning and brought people to wait outside.
Mu Ruqing had just entered when she felt dizzy from the surging heat waves. It was as if she could smell the burnt smell of her hair.
The figures of the few people who were searching anxiously avoided a few collapsed pillars. They moved sideways a few more times before they saw Yu Longchen's clothes. They called out and rushed in.
They dragged Yu Longchen's body and felt that his body was burning hot. They heard Yuan Zhen's scream again. They raised their heads to respond to him. " Here! Ahem! They are here! Come here! "
Mu Ruqing originally wanted to drag Changxu along, but she could only drag one person along. She used the strength of drinking milk to barely drag Yu Longchen. After taking two steps, Yuan Zhen brought people over.
The hidden guards were all trained. They rushed in and helped the unconscious person up. They followed the road just now and walked towards the door as fast as possible. When the last two people walked out, the post house collapsed.
The air was filled with the burnt smell of meat. Miao Yingyu was busy treating their wounds.
The most serious injury was Changxu. Half of his clothes were burnt and stuck to his skin. His neck and jaw were also burnt. The blood red flesh was exposed to the air.
Yu Longchen and Yun Yu's clothes were burned a little. Luckily, they did not burn their flesh. Yun Xi only breathed in smoke and fainted. Yun Sheng's arm was dislocated, but it was only reattached well. There would not be any root of illness left.
This matter was too big. When Lord Mayor arrived, he sent someone to report to the Emperor. However, it was late at night and there were still many procedures to enter the Palace. He was afraid that he had not reported it to the Emperor yet.
Mu Ruqing caressed Yu Longchen's cheek. His body temperature dropped a little and Mu Ruqing cried silently. She was afraid...
"This humble servant greets the Prime Minister." Lord Mayor bowed to Mu Po who had rushed over in a hurry.
When Mu Ruqing left the Imperial Residence, she had asked Lingyue to call Mu Po. Lingyue saw the person lying on the ground and her face was filled with disbelief. She was stunned for a long time. When she saw Changxu, who was lying at the edge of the room and looked like he had been burned to a crisp, she covered her mouth and felt sad.
Miao Yingyu was very busy. Fortunately, Mu Ruqing asked her to bring some medicine when she came, just in case. Otherwise, in the current situation, she really did not know what to do.
"Qing!" Mu Po saw Mu Ruqing's back and rushed in regardless of Lord Mayor. Looking at the person lying on the ground, he suddenly felt something was wrong and sent his personal guards to the direction of the Imperial Palace.
"How are your injuries?" Mu Po went forward to ask. Mu Ruqing did not even look up and only looked at Yu Longchen. "Inconscious."
Miao Yingyu could not care about much. She was not completely confident that she could save everyone.
