Xia Mo looked at Aunt Zhang coldly, "Shut up!"
“No one is dead!”
Aunt Zhang was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and she opened her mouth wide but dared not make a sound.
Lu Man took a deep breath and looked at the dumbfounded Zhao Tongpan.
"Hurry up and take the person away."
“...Yes, yes, yes...” Zhao Tongpan nodded repeatedly in shock.
After watching Zhao Tongpan and his group walk away, Lu Man frowned and turned back to the prefectural government office.
.......
"Ran Xiangyu is here!?"
Cheng Suihua looked at Lu Man in disbelief.
She was just practicing martial arts.
The little maid said that the old lady wanted her to come over for something.
But when everyone arrived, they heard such a ridiculous thing.
Meng Yunfei pulled the corner of her lips,
"What is she doing here? Hasn't she already broken off the engagement with Seventh Brother?"
Lu Man sighed, "I don't know why she came to Qianhuang City."
"She also kept saying she was Seventh Brother's fiancée..."
When Lu Man said this, she looked at Old Madam Shen.
The eyes of the six sisters-in-law all fell on Old Madam Shen.
Whether or not the daughter-in-law recognizes her is not up to them.
The corners of Mrs. Shen's mouth twitched twice, and she raised her eyelids to look at Lu Man.
"Does Old Seven know?"
"I know." Lu Man nodded. "Seventh brother asked Zhao Tongpan to take the person away. Ran Xiangyu was not seen."
Madam Shen chuckled.
"Then don't worry about it, just let her be."
"She has nothing to do with our Shen family anymore."
As for killing Ran Xiangyu, it didn't get to that point.
Before exile, it was indeed Lao Qi who used Ran Xiangyu more.
At the beginning, the two of them got what they needed.
Since the seventh brother has lost his fame, fortune and status, it is understandable that Ran Xiangyu left.
Now...
The Seventh Brother does not need Ran Xiangyu's financial resources, but Ran Xiangyu still wants to cling to him. That means Ran Xiangyu is attracted by the Seventh Brother's current status.
The six sisters-in-law looked at each other and pursed their lips silently.
In this matter, they, as sisters-in-law, have no say.
......
At this time, Tianhong, Tianliu and Tianqi arrived at the gate of Bailong City, exhausted.
“Open the door!!”
Tianhong looked up at the city gate tower and shouted in a hoarse voice.
I suffered a lot along the way.
The further he walked, the more he doubted whether Shen Yong had come to extinguish the fire city.
Another question is whether the mysterious flying object has anything to do with Chen Yong.
Looking at the direction the giant was flying, it was indeed towards the Fire Extinguishing City.
But as he chased it all the way, he never saw the giant again.
Looking at the gate of Bailong City, Tianhong sighed softly, feeling so tired.
Not only did he fail to catch Chen Yong, he also failed to find the magical object. He would have no explanation when he returned to Beijing, so he had to continue searching.
At the gates of the first few cities, there were still refugees gathering and crying to enter the city.
When we arrived at Bailong City, the city gate was empty, without even a single person in sight.
It's easy to tell that Bailong City must be a hell on earth, with corpses everywhere.
Now that I'm here, I'll have to go and take a look around the Fire City. I won't give up.
Tian Liu and Tian Qi looked up at the city gate tower in the glaring sunlight and licked their cracked lips.
When Ji Yongjia heard the shout, he frowned and looked down, his eyes widened and his eyeballs almost fell out of the city gate tower.
Tianhong!!?
Why is the leader of Emperor Tianwu's secret guards here?
Could it be that after Emperor Tianwu discovered the bodies of the dead palace guards, he sent out the leader of the secret guards?
Ji Yongjia pursed his lips and looked at the two secret guards following Tianhong, feeling a little nervous.
He could recognize Tianhong, and Tianhong could naturally recognize him.
To be precise, the secret guards knew everyone in the capital, especially the imperial guards.
His martial arts skills are no match for Tianhong's.
If Tianhong found out that he was alive and well and still guarding the city gate tower of Bailong City, he would probably kill him directly.
A layer of sweat instantly appeared on Ji Yongjia's forehead, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
“Open the door quickly!!”
Tianhong shouted but heard no response from the city gate tower, so he shouted again impatiently.
"I am an official serving under the emperor's orders. I have important business to attend to. Open the city gates immediately!"
Ji Yongjia quickly retracted his head from the city gate tower and pointed at several gate guards of Bailong City.
"You guys go open the city gate."
He would never dare to let the imperial guards open the city gate for Tianhong.
After a while, the city gate guard opened the gate, looked at Tianhong's royal token, and let the person into the city.
Ji Yongjia watched Tianhong and his group hurriedly riding into the city and immediately turned on the walkie-talkie.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I have something important to report..."
Ji Yongjia shouted into the intercom for a long time, but there was no sound from the other end.
It was obvious that he was late in reporting in the morning, which made King Qianhuang so angry that he turned off the walkie-talkie.
Ji Yongjia was scratching his head anxiously.
Tianhong is not Ran Xiangyu. Ran Xiangyu has no fighting skills at all, so she won’t cause any trouble if she goes to Qianhuang City.
But Tianhong's martial arts skills are unmatched in the entire capital, and his lethality is extraordinary.
Once the secret guard takes action, there will definitely be blood.
The intercom couldn't reach King Qianhuang, so even if he rode to Qianhuang City now, it would be too late.
Tianhong and his men were ahead of him, so he was still a step behind them.
Just when Ji Yongjia was scratching his head anxiously, the intercom beeped twice.
Qi Zhiyong's voice came from the intercom.
"Master Ji, what happened?"
Qi Zhiyong was riding a horse when he suddenly heard the walkie-talkie in his arms ringing.
Then he heard Ji Yongjia reporting something to King Qianhuang, and being tactful, he naturally kept silent.
After waiting for a long time, there was no reply from King Qianhuang, and Ji Yongjia on the opposite side seemed to be even more anxious.
It just so happened that he was going to Qianhuang City today, and Magistrate Liu asked him to take 100 kilograms of salt to the Fire Phoenix Kingdom to exchange for some gold.
The wealthy families in Bailong City had been plundered twice, and they could no longer afford to eat the salt.
Each household could only take 500 kilograms of salt, and there were still 3,000 kilograms of salt left in the prefectural government warehouse with nowhere to sell it.
He didn't dare to bring too much, so he took a hundred pounds to the Fire City to test the waters.
Ji Yongjia listened to the sound of horse hooves and wind from the opposite side, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Brother Qi, where are you now!?"
Qi Zhiyong, "On the way to Qianhuang City."
Ji Yongjia asked excitedly, "How long will it take to get to Qianhuang City?"
Qi Zhiyong, "It will take more than an hour to get there."
Ji Yongjia breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "Brother Qi, please tell the prince when you get to Qianhuang City that I have something important to report. It's extremely urgent!"
"good."
Qi Zhiyong heard Ji Yongjia's anxious tone and knew that the situation was very urgent. He squeezed his legs hard on the horse's belly and increased his speed.
It should have taken more than an hour to reach Qianhuang City, but he managed to reach Qianhuang City in just half an hour.
