His Majesty is ill

Miemen "Well, we have to get there as soon as possible."

Feng Konghua didn't think it was strange that Mo Ming would know about the little tricks between him and the city lord. On the contrary, it would be strange if he didn't find out.

Therefore, he didn't explain much about it, and directly handed the note that the city lord secretly stuffed to him to Mo Ming.

After receiving the note from Feng Konghua, Mo Ming opened it and saw that it simply wrote the seven words "Tonight, City Lord's Mansion", and there was no more information. What does this mean? Mo Ming crushed the note in his hand, and looked at Feng Konghua beside him with some doubts.

Sensing the suspicious eyes of his family members, Feng Konghua didn't turn his head, but explained in a low voice to himself: "When I asked Lou Qing to take over as the city lord of Yuehui City, I gave him a secret order , That is to let him secretly investigate the official corruption case that has been eroding the foundation of our country for many years.

Since he took over, secret documents will be handed over every month regardless of whether there is any progress, but recently, I have not received any news from him for two consecutive months, so I took this opportunity to come here to check the situation .

Now that he dared to let me go to the city lord's mansion at the risk of being discovered that we were secretly investigating this matter, he must have found some important clues, so let's rush there as soon as possible, otherwise things will change later. "

It was already late at night, and there were hardly any people in the bustling street during the day, and the two contrasted with each other, and it seemed extremely deserted.

Walking on this quiet street, the paper lanterns hanging on both sides were blown by the night wind, the shadows of the candles swayed, shining on people's faces flickeringly, and the cold moonlight came from mid-air quietly. The shadows of the two were slowly stretched on the cold bluestone road, and then slowly twisted.

Seriously speaking, this kind of scene is really scary. If you walk alone on the street late at night, you might be scared into a cold sweat by the gloomy scene and the fear that follows you everywhere.

But at the moment, the two people in it didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment at all because they had something on their minds. All they thought about now was that they must rush to the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible. As I said, I am afraid that things will change if I am too late.

"Mo Ming, hurry up, I think something will happen tonight, and it may be too late."

I don't know if it was affected by the too spooky night around. It was obviously a foolproof meeting, but for some reason, Feng Konghua always felt uneasy, faintly feeling that something might happen, and it wouldn't be a good thing...

If it was normal, he would not decide something on the spur of the moment, he would definitely make a decision after a thorough investigation, but tonight is really different from usual, it feels like someone is holding his heart Half of the worry and nervousness had been with him since he walked out of the auction house, no matter how much he comforted himself that it was just an illusion, he couldn't get rid of it.

His Majesty the Emperor, who was tortured by such irritated emotions, had no choice but to follow his intuition, quickened his pace again, and did not forget to urge Mo Ming beside him.

I have to say that in some cases, our intuition is worthy of trust.

Just when the two of them hurried to the street where the city lord's mansion was located, they were completely stunned by what they saw before them.

Feng Konghua's premonition was right, something happened...

"It seems that we are still one step late..."

Stopping at a place about five steps away from the City Lord's Mansion, Feng Konghua looked at the sea of ​​flames not far in front of him, and frowned in disbelief, but he was the emperor after all, so he quickly restrained himself. With a shocked expression on his face, he sighed softly, with a touch of regret and worry in his tone.

"Master, look at the fire, someone will come over soon, if we want to go in and check, we have to do it as soon as possible.

Otherwise, even if no one came, all the clues would be destroyed by the fire. "

Look at this tall building that originally belonged to the city lord's mansion is now shrouded in a sea of ​​flames, and the blazing flames reflected half of the sky into a fiery red.

There were faint exclamations from all around, realizing that if they wanted to find clues, the time for the two of them was running out, Mo Ming calmly analyzed.

In fact, from a selfish point of view, in the face of such a huge fire, Mo Ming would like to suggest that Feng Konghua leave immediately, and let him, as the king of a country, go bravely into the sea of ​​fire. It sounds absurd, but he knows the human nature around him. Mo Ming knew that even if he proposed to leave, the willful and reckless emperor beside him would not accept it, so he simply saved his energy and saved it to protect him after entering the fire scene.

"Well, let's go."

He also heard voices from far to near, and Feng Konghua also knew that the two of them were running out of time, so when Mo Ming reminded him, he took the lead in using lightness kung fu with almost no hesitation. , the thin and tall figure has disappeared into the fiery red.

Mo Ming, who had already expected what he would do, saw that he really ignored him and jumped into the sea of ​​flames without hesitation, the corners of his eyebrows twitched instantly, and he jumped into the sea of ​​flames with a wayward person helplessly.

Both of them, who are very good at martial arts, were not hindered by the layer of flames that surrounded the City Lord's Mansion, and jumped into the City Lord's Mansion lightly within a few ups and downs.

The place where the two landed was a courtyard that originally belonged to the outskirts of the city lord's mansion. Since the courtyard is relatively wide and the distance between flowers and trees is far away, there are not many things to burn, so although it looks like a big fire from the outside, the two The courtyard where the person landed was basically kept intact, and was not too much affected by the flames.

"It seems that we are really late, Mo Ming, first see if there are any survivors among these people.

If so, see if you can ask anything.

I went to have a look inside, in terms of Lou Qing's martial arts and ability, he should be fine, I have to find him. "

Although what they faced when they landed was not a situation where flames were everywhere and they had no way to settle down, what they saw was not a pleasant sight at all.

I saw people lying all over the ground in disorder in the huge courtyard. Although they couldn't see their specific situation, judging from the blood all over the ground, the possibility that these people were still alive could be said to be very slim.

Seeing the blood soaking the feet of his snow-white robe, Feng Konghua frowned in disgust, raised his eyes slightly to look at the corpses all over the place, closed his eyes, and ordered in a cold voice.

"No, master, it's too dangerous inside, let the subordinates go in and check."

Hearing this, Mo Ming retorted subconsciously.

What a joke, the fire looks so big from the outside, it doesn't just look serious. Although the courtyard where they are now is not seriously burned, it is because there is not much combustible material in the open terrain.

And what Feng Konghua said about "going inside to see" is not just talking casually, from this courtyard to the inside is the main building of the City Lord's Mansion, most of which are made of wood, can burn at a touch, and are easy to collapse. With such a big fire, once people go in, they may not be able to come out.

As soon as the words fell, Mo Ming saw Feng Konghua's eyebrows frowned, knowing that this was a sign that he was going to refute himself, so he interrupted him first, "Your Majesty, although we are outside the palace now, this is not the case. On your behalf you can forget who you are.

It's too dangerous inside, Your Majesty has a rich body and has not left any heirs, if something happens, the country will be in danger, I implore Your Majesty to consider for the world and take care of yourself. "

If you look into it deeply, what Mo Ming said is really a bit out of bounds, but he can't control these things at the moment, even his tone of voice is extremely serious, and he looks like he will never compromise.

"you……

Forget it, you go, I stay here..."

Being reprimanded face to face by his subordinates, Feng Konghua's face turned cold, and he was almost about to explode on the spot.

But looking at the serious and unyielding expression of this loyal subordinate who has followed him since he was a child, and what the other party said was indeed very reasonable, because he, the emperor, did not think clearly, Feng Konghua fell silent. After a while, he sighed and accepted Mo Ming's proposal.

Looking at the back of Mo Ming who turned around and walked into the depths of the sea of ​​fire after he agreed, Feng Konghua paused, and finally opened his mouth softly before the other's back disappeared in front of his eyes, "Mo Ming, be careful yourself.

Whether you find someone or not, I want you to come out alive, this is an order. "

Although his voice was not loud, Mo Ming, who had extraordinary hearing ability, still kept his awkward concerns in his ears.

His footsteps paused, but he didn't turn around because of this. He just nodded slightly with his back to Feng Konghua, and walked directly into the inner courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion surrounded by flames.

After he left, Feng Konghua also took another step, stepped into the blood-soaked courtyard, and began to check the corpses on the ground.

The people lying on the ground were turned over one by one. Feng Konghua carefully inspected each corpse. While confirming the cause of their death, he still had a glimmer of hope that he could find one or two corpses among the dead corpses all over the place. Let him know what happened tonight.

It's a pity that his luck didn't look very good tonight. He checked almost all the corpses, except that most of the corpses here belonged to the servants and guards of the City Lord's Mansion and they all had their throats cut. There is no gain other than bleeding to death.

"Um……"

Just when Feng Konghua stood up, about to give up on finding survivors from these corpses, and leave here with peace of mind when Mo Ming came back, he suddenly heard a thin groan from not far away.
