Chapter 147
Chapter 147 – Perish Together
Chapter 147 Both perish
She seemed to have been scalded on her feet, and she backed away with a pale face. Du Yunwei covered her lips and carefully retreated to her wing. No wonder Jiang Changning swore that today was a good time. It turned out that something bad happened in the nunnery.
She was restless, and walked towards her yard against the corner, which was specially chosen by Xiangniang for her after she started in Fengyue Nunnery. The furnishings were rarely in the style she liked, and it was also her favorite place to stay.
She has nowhere to go, and she is reluctant to part with Fengyue Nunnery, let alone flee with Jiang Changning and his party. She was born to be a member of Fengyue Temple, and she will never leave.
Jiang Changning led a group of people to the secret door. She buckled the pendant into the groove in the center, and the secret door slowly opened to reveal the skylight outside.
“You can go out! You can really go out!!”
A group of girls held hands with tears in their eyes. They ran away in a hurry. They just went back to pack a few important things. They were worried that the guards would find out that they ran away with their skirts in their hands. Someone in the middle stepped on the corner of the skirt and fell. Wrestling, everyone helped each other over.
Jiang Changning walked at the end, looking back from time to time.
There was a pungent smell of kerosene in the air, followed by the bitter smell of burning…
Are they going to set fire? !
Jiang Changning was so anxious that the girls who had fled with her had already stepped out of this door, and they finally let go of half of their hearts.
Jiang Changning let out a long breath, clutched the pendant in his hand, turned around and walked back.
She can’t leave, Qin Huaisu hasn’t come out yet! A girl wanted to hold her with a groan, but after seeing her flushed eyes, she silently put down her hand.
Seeing Jiang Changning’s lonely back getting farther and farther away, the girls all knelt down and kowtowed in her direction…
Lu Yan’s people were already lighting the fire, and the flames met the oiled firewood and rose all the way, burning from the outside to the inside along the surroundings of the nunnery.
Fu Yu gasped for a moment, smelled the smell of kerosene and charcoal in the air, and his expression was shocked.
“The fire is already burning, hurry up and leave this place to me!”
Qin Huaisu also noticed it, but Lu Yan had the intention of silence, and when he saw that he was going to withdraw and attack, he became more violent and didn’t give him a chance to distract him.
The fire is burning hotter and hotter, and you can already see the flames and towering black smoke outside the house. The sparks have spread to the room they are in, and the thick smoke filled the room. During the fight, the room was gradually destroyed. The flames engulfed.
Lu Yan was anxious to get out of this room, and suddenly burst into twelve points of skill. Taking advantage of the black smoke blocking Qin Huaisu’s vision, he slashed at his shoulder.
The house was already on fire, and the flames were soaring into the sky. The exquisite curtains in the house became a deadly weapon at this moment, turning into clusters of fireballs and falling from above, and even the pillars above the head were faintly tending to loosen.
Qin Huaisu was stung by the smoke in front of his eyes, and almost blindly deduced Lu Yan’s attack by relying on the sound in his ears. Now that he was injured, he exposed his weakness and was hit by Lu Yan.
“Asu!!” Fu Yu cried out nervously.
The raging flames lit up in Fu Yu’s eyes. He ignored Lu Yan’s long knife piercing his flesh and blood, and rushed forward, hugged Lu Yan tightly, and pushed him to the bedpost with all his strength.
Lu Yan stopped moving.
The sword that had been inserted upside down on the bedpost earlier exposed the blood-stained sword tip from Fu Yu’s back. Blood oozed from the corner of Fu Yu’s mouth, but his face was relieved. He died with Lu Yan in such a tragic way.
Acquaintance when we were young, childhood sweetheart. Heaven and man are separated, and they hate for half a lifetime. Now I can finally let go…
“Fu Yu—” Qin Huaisu saw this scene before he passed out, but he only had time to call Fu Yu’s name before he became unconscious again.
…
“Hurry up! The prince is here!! Your Majesty is here too!”
“Come here! The fire is too strong, hurry up and rescue your majesty and prince!”
“Quickly put out the fire!”
“It’s too late, hurry up!”
…
Jiang Changning managed to avoid the burning fire everywhere to find Xiangniang’s residence, and accidentally saw someone from the government.
“Miss Jiang?! Why are you here?!” It was an acquaintance, Su Yan, the adult of the Criminal Department.
“Where is His Highness the Banquet King?”
Jiang Changning was asking, when he saw a group of people carrying Qin Huaisu and the emperor hurried out from the inside, followed by a loud explosion, and the pillars collapsed in the room with a bang, and the whole room was buried in flames.
“My lord, the body of Master Lu was also found inside. It’s just…it’s just that when they went in, they had already merged into the raging fire, and they were burnt to black along with the unidentified man. They couldn’t bring the body out.”
When the people from the Criminal Department arrived, Xiangniang didn’t dare to show her face, she hid in the dark and waited for Fu Yu’s movement, but he couldn’t be seen no matter how the fire started. It wasn’t until she saw her room collapsed and the whole house was buried in flames that she couldn’t hold back her tears, she couldn’t believe that Fu Yu had just left like this.
Du Yunwei sat in front of the mirror, dressed in brocade clothes, doing her makeup. From the first cluster of flames, she closed her eyes and waited quietly for the arrival of death. Until the flames engulfed her flesh, many images flashed before her eyes, the life of a poor farmer, being missed by her neighbors and unable to protect her appearance, and the life she can freely control after coming to this nunnery…in order to catch up with Lord Lu. How much has this shrewd and powerful man paid for himself. In order to learn to play the piano, his hands were worn out and bloody. Learn to read and learn how to serve people. Perhaps it is precisely because of this tenacity that the two met each other.
She got the moon, and she was only fit to stay in the mud.
Perhaps, if she stays here, she deserves to die.
People from Tai Hospital were bandaging Qin Huaisu’s wound, but Jiang Changning couldn’t get close to him, staring at his injury anxiously. The knife edge on his body was dazzling, and there was a huge slash wound on his shoulder. The **** flesh made her feel pain in her heart. Jiang Changning couldn’t help the heat in his eyes, and waited for the imperial doctor’s diagnosis and treatment with suppressed emotions.
Jiang Changning didn’t pay attention to the results of the emperor over there, and only heard the old doctor whisper to Su Yan: “The prince is seriously injured, and his heart and lungs have inhaled too much dust and smoke, so he passed out from exhaustion, and he must be taken out of here as soon as possible!”
Jiang Changning’s heart skipped a beat and he said hastily: “Why don’t you send a group of people to leave first. The woman in this nunnery has been rescued by me from the side door, and I have to trouble your lord to take a look.”
At this moment, another group of people rescued Shen Dong from the dungeon, and Chunying was following beside him.
“Girl Jiang!” Shen Dong saw Jiang Changning’s eyes brighten up, and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her standing upright, a bright smile finally appeared on his pale face.
Chun Ying was not angry in her heart, she was obviously the one who rescued him immediately when she found out that there was a possibility of escaping regardless of life and death, so why did he only care about Jiang Changning? !
The fire was so big and urgent, if the people from Dali Temple hadn’t arrived in time, she might have been buried here with Shen Dong.
But even so, Shen Dong still doesn’t see her in his eyes!
