"I……"

Even if he knew there was water under the cliff, jumping off the cliff would still make people a little nervous. Hearing Gu Baiji's question, Chu Wuzheng raised his head distractedly, and suddenly there was an extra arm on his waist, and then The whole person was brought to fall.

At that moment, the flames roared in, engulfing the place where they were standing just now, and soon there was only a piece of ashes left.

Immediately afterwards, the fire did not stop there, and spread to other places as the wind direction changed.

The feeling of weightlessness was not good, but being hugged tightly by Gu Baiji, seeing the worried expression on his face, Chu Wu's heart was completely at ease, and he fell into the lake with him.

But Yu Sanqing was overjoyed when he saw the fire spreading to the top of the mountain as fast as he expected, and he was full of joy and waited for the matter to be completed before going up the mountain to collect the bodies of the two people.

The group waited in place for a while, and Yu Sanqing asked people to block all the roads down the mountain just in case.

The fire was raging, and there was a sea of ​​flames in front of my eyes. The forests in the mountains were densely forested. After the fire started, the trees would still crackle and burn for a period of time.

Yu Sanqing only thought that this would definitely work, and was full of anticipation to go up the mountain to check when the fire stopped for a while, but he didn't expect that about half an hour later, the sky suddenly changed.

The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. Yu Sanqing was worried that the rain would be too heavy to extinguish the fire, but he saw that the rain did not fall for a long time, but then something frightening happened. Yu Sanqing didn't know Why, there was a sudden shock in his body, he was still in a daze, and there were already panic shouts from all around,

"The direction of the wind has changed!"

"The fire is coming..."

"My son-in-law, run quickly..."

Yu Sanqing only felt a buzzing in his ears, and when he heard his name, he got up in a trance, and then he felt being supported one by one on the left and one on the right, before he had time to look at his broken hand, the heat on his face made him Yu Sanqing finally realized belatedly:

As the direction changed, the fire came, and they would all end up here.

"Quick-run-ah-"

Yu Sanqing's heart-piercing voice sounded.

It was too late, the wind was too fast, and the power of nature was fully reflected at this moment.

Human beings have always been in awe of nature. Before Sanqing's mind dissipated, he thought in a trance that retribution could come so quickly. One moment he set fire to the mountain, and the next moment, the fire burned himself.

It wasn't until this sub-peak was almost swallowed up by flames and the heavy rain finally poured down that it was still a forest of flames, and soon there were only patches of scorched black marks left.

Such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of the people who were hunting in the autumn on the nearby mountain. People who thought it was just a natural mountain fire came to check after the fire was extinguished, and found the charred bones. , just discovered the seriousness of the matter.

The fire was reported to the emperor in time, and the corpses were carried down the mountain one after another. Facing the sudden appearance of so many corpses, and the lack of Yu Sanqing, Gu Baiji, Chuwu and others among those who came back, the emperor was extremely angry and ordered People rushed into the mountains to search for people, and...to verify the unrecognizable corpse.

After Chu Yue heard the news, she listened to people's reports with anticipation and worry.

Soon, Yu Sanqing's identity was confirmed. The gold medal on his body, the gold hairpin, and his height proved his identity.

Hearing this, Chu Yue felt her eyes go dark, she rushed out recklessly, and asked hastily, "What else, where are the others?"

She didn't know what she wanted to know, was it to prove that Chu Wu was dead, or was she afraid of seeing Gu Baiji's body?

There were too many corpses, and the scene was chaotic. Someone rushed forward to help her back. At this moment, no one had time to wonder why she was so indifferent to the corpse of her son-in-law, and didn't even ask.

After a while, the inspector came to report that none of the remaining corpses resembled General Gu and the Ninth Prince.

Hearing this, Chu Yue suddenly slumped on the ground, feeling a big emptiness in her heart, she didn't know whether she was angry because of the absence of Chu Wu, or rejoiced because of the absence of Gu Baiji.

Suddenly, her sight fell on Sanqing's corpse covered in white cloth, Chu Yue's body trembled suddenly, and she realized in a trance: this man who has always obeyed her words and indulged her without a bottom line is dead.

"Princess? Princess?" Seeing her sluggish face and trembling all over, she called out worriedly to the maid who came over a few times, worried that she might be out of breath due to grief, so she hurriedly went to the tent to bring her a cup of herbal tea to feed.

After Chu Yue drank the herbal tea for a while, a sudden pain came from her abdomen, which instantly cleared her somewhat chaotic mind.

Chu Yue grabbed the maid serving the tea and asked anxiously, "Where did you bring me the tea?"

"Princess?" Seeing that her expression was not right, the palace maid immediately frightened her out of her wits, and hastily pointed out, "The servant girl served it on the tea table in His Majesty's tent."

"You..." Chu Yue was furious, she never thought that the tea would end up in her stomach, and she wanted to say something more, but suddenly her stomach was stabbed in pain, causing her to roll on the ground.

"Longxin?" The emperor was shocked when he saw this, and hurried over, "What's wrong with you?"

Chu Yue was in so much pain that blood was dripping from the corner of her lips. She looked at the emperor with blank eyes, and murmured: "Brother said, it will only be a minor illness, not death."

There were too many people around, even though the emperor was close to her, he could only vaguely hear the last part of the sentence.

"Prince doctor!" The emperor got up and hurriedly sent someone to call the doctor. Chu Yue was obviously in pain, and she covered her swollen stomach and rolled on the ground.

The maid who brought her tea was so frightened that she kowtowed on the ground and begged for mercy. The emperor didn't even look at it, but waved his hand and ordered the maid to be pulled down and chopped down.

When the imperial doctor came, Chu Yue had already been sent to the bed. At this time, she was already exhaling more air than breathing in. The imperial doctor was about to step forward when Chu Yue suddenly straightened her waist, stared straight ahead, and shouted :

"Father, Chu Wu has harmed me!"

After the words fell, the person fell back on the couch, his body stiffened, and he died twice.

"Long Xin! Long Xin!" The emperor was out of breath, his body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Xiao hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

After Chu Yue's body was restrained, the emperor pointed to the cold tea on the tea table and ordered the imperial doctor: "Let me check carefully, what is in this tea."

After a while, the result came out, there was a deadly poison in the tea, at most it took only half an hour to kill a person, and this poison was rare and difficult to cure.

The emperor was furious, "This is not to harm Long Xin, he is clearly waiting to kill me, his heart is to be punished! Come on, continue to go into the mountains to find Chu Wu and Gu Baiji, and immediately bring them to me when you find them. "

"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Xiao stepped forward holding a pot of plants that had completely turned black, and said in a low voice, "This is the potted flower next to the tea table. The old slave saw that it showed signs of turning black yesterday, and it has become like this today. .but... about this?"

"Yesterday..." Everything that happened yesterday passed in his mind like a fleeting glance. The emperor's expression was unclear. When he turned around and saw Long Xin's body, all the inexplicable and unusual things faded away, leaving only the love for Chu Wu. A monstrous rage.

Among the people who were looking for Chu Wu and Gu Baiji, Ze An Yu was the most anxious. In today's fire, so many people died inexplicably on the fire scene. Anyone with a discerning eye can see what happened. Judging from the situation of the other corpses, these people were obviously brought into the mountain by him. As for the purpose, just look at the missing Gu Baiji and Chu Wu.

And this fire, there are signs that it is obviously man-made.As for who released it, I don't know.However, An Yu believed that Gu Baiji would not use these methods unless it was absolutely necessary, according to his general's style of conduct.A mere Yu Sanqing is not enough for a last resort.

But Ze An Yu's most anxious point was not here, but because Long Xin died.
