After becoming a villain, I was forced to save the villain

Chapter 96 The Daily Life of the Poison Empress (96)

The guards frowned, grabbed the handle of the knife and pounded on the corpse twice, then stretched out their hands to check for breath and pulse.

"A dead man indeed."

"The third prince has an order that even ants cannot be released, even a dead person cannot be released casually."

The scene suddenly reached a deadlock.

The coachman looked a little anxious, he didn't know what to do, and since he couldn't transport the coffin back, he could only beg over and over again.

"It's okay, this girl is also a poor person, and it's common sense for fallen leaves to return to their roots. I can't let her just rot in the palace like this..."

"No, no, no, you..."

Before the words fell, someone suddenly yelled not far away.

"Quick! The palace is on fire!! The gates are open!!"

When everyone looked up, they saw that under the bright moonlight, a raging fire was already burning in the center of the huge palace!
Can't let this fire burn down the palace!
"Forget it, forget it, hurry up!! Don't get in the way, hurry up!!"

Hearing this, the coachman hurried out with his carriage.

Before leaving the palace, he looked back at the palace, then frowned and sighed.

"Hey……"

With such a big fire, the person who set the fire was probably driven to a dead end.

After sighing, he slammed his whip and drove all the way to Jingdu Chengmen.

-

The fire burned for three days and three nights.

In the end, it rained heavily, which calmed down the flames all over the sky.

The entire huge Fengtian Temple has been burned to ashes, and everything inside has disappeared, let alone people, even the iron has been burned.

Jiang Chuan led people to search under the ruins of Fengtian Temple for a long time, and finally found some human bone residues, which were so dark that they shattered when pinched, no one could tell whose bones it was.

However, apart from Cen Yao and Concubine Zhuang lived in Fengtian Palace, since they couldn't get out of the palace, and they couldn't find any trace, they would have been reduced to ashes in all likelihood, sleeping under the ruins forever.

Jiang Chuan announced on the spot that the courtier Cen Yao was dead, so he could tell the world and regain the country.

For a moment, the hearts of the people were boiling, and tens of thousands of people cheered, sang and danced. Everyone knew that Jiang Chuan was the most suitable person in the world to be an emperor, and he was the real dragon emperor destined by heaven.

Afterwards, the country returned to its throne, the palace was rebuilt, and the silver carp was enthroned, and the name of the country was changed to Jin.

-

When Cen Yao woke up, he frantically looked for Ding Bao's figure.

His subordinates told him that when the coffin was transported out of the palace, he pried open the hidden compartment at the bottom, only to find that there was no one, but it was full of gold, silver and jewels.

Cen Yao's face was pale, and he rushed to the coffin with bare feet. He looked down and saw that it was full of dazzling treasures and jades, neatly laid out, as if someone had put them in one by one.

"What about people?!"

"I ask you, where are the people inside!!"

The subordinate quickly knelt down and shook his head vigorously.

"Returning to Governor, this is the scene when my subordinate opened the coffin, and the other subordinates didn't know about it."

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he hurriedly took out a letter from his pocket, and handed it carefully to Cen Yao.

"This letter was seen when the subordinate opened the secret compartment, and it was placed on top of those gold and silver objects. Please..."

The letter in his hand was snatched away.

Cen Yao looked down at the envelope in his hand, opened it with almost trembling hands, and pulled out a stack of papers from inside.

He looked at each word and sentence, and the words on the paper seemed to have turned into sharp daggers, piercing his heart fiercely again and again.
