"Death is imminent, but you can still sleep!" A cold voice came from the door. If it wasn't Mu Jingheng, who could it be?
Yun Jiutang ignored him. Mu Jingheng asked someone to open the cell door and walked in.
As a result, as soon as he stepped into it, there was a scream of "Ah——" and he fell to the ground.
Then, with several "click" and "click" sounds, he screamed more and more fiercely.
"Your Majesty!" The guard heard the noise and rushed over quickly. When he saw his miserable state, he couldn't help but take a breath.
Mu Jingheng's two hands and one foot were all hung with hunting traps.
The jagged clamps pierced his skin, causing a large amount of blood to flow out.
"Save the prince quickly!" Everyone rushed forward in a hurry and helped Mu Jingheng up in a hurry.
While he was howling like a ghost, the guards removed the animal trap for him.
At this time, the entire cell was filled with blood.
"What's going on? It's so noisy!" At this time, Yun Jiutang "woke up" and looked at Mu Jingheng in surprise, "His Royal Highness King Qin? Why are you here?"
Then, looking at his miserable appearance, she suppressed a smile and said, "Ah! What's wrong with you!"
"Yun Jiutang!" Mu Jingheng said through gritted teeth, "How dare you plot against me! You are seeking death!"
"Where did you start talking about this?" Yun Jiutang sat on the bed, looked at him and said with a sarcastic smile,
"I have been lying here fine, how could I plot against you, King Qin? By the way, why are you in my prison in the middle of the night?"
Mu Jingheng's teeth were itching with hatred. She looked at the thick straw in front of her and said angrily: "Tear them all down to me!"
He didn't even notice that there were so many terrible things buried underneath.
"Stop!" Yun Jiutang stood up and said coldly, "I advise you not to act rashly! You cannot afford to offend the things here!"
After the lesson just now, Mu Jingheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Then, I thought that with so many people around me, there was nothing to be afraid of.
He immediately sneered: "What are you still doing? Lift it!"
The guard Ying Ying claimed that he hurried forward to hug the straws.
But at this moment, someone suddenly let out a scream.
Immediately afterwards, a large group of fat rats and insects were seen crawling out of the straw and heading straight towards Mu Jingheng.
"Ah ah ah -" Mu Jingheng's face turned pale with fear, and she hurriedly said, "Escort me! Protect me quickly!"
The guards were okay, but they were harassed by bugs, and they fought hard to fight the bugs that crawled on them.
Those rats ran straight towards Mu Jingheng.
"Ah! Rats like to eat flesh and blood! King Qin, you are full of flesh and blood, but you have to be careful!" Yun Jiutang still reminded him with feigned concern.
Mu Jingheng didn't bother to argue with her. She was busy driving away the incoming rats.
He had never known before that there could be so many rats in this prison.
"Your Majesty! It's dangerous here! Let's go quickly!" The guards did not dare to stay, so they hurriedly pulled Mu Jingheng and left.
I ran out of the prison gate, but the rats didn't follow me.
Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they suddenly discovered thick smoke billowing inside.
"What's going on!" The expressions of the guards guarding the prison changed.
"No! There's a fire! Put out the fire!"
"Hurry and save Princess Zhenbei!"
Everyone screamed and ran in one after another, but soon they were choked by the thick smoke and ran out.
The fire inside quickly spread and the smoke was too great.
In just a moment, the entire prison was ablaze.
When Mu Jingheng saw this, his face turned pale.
Damn it!
He originally thought about going to Yun Jiutang and asking him how to make the musket.
You can even make promises to her, coerce and induce her, and let her do what you want!
As a result, now, she is afraid that she is going to die inside!
But then he thought about it, if she died, she would die. Anyway, when the time comes, he would take the emperor's musketry team for his own use, and then slowly imitate it!
The fire here quickly attracted Mu Canglin.
"Tangtang!" He shouted sharply, even if he wanted to rush in regardless.
However, before he could get closer, he was already being hugged tightly.
"My lord, no! It's dangerous!" Luo Yu said urgently.
"Tangtang is still inside! Let go! I am going to save her!" Mu Canglin struggled desperately, but more and more people were hugging him.
Some people held his waist, some held his arms, and some held his legs tightly, fearing that he would rush in on impulse.
More guards came and tried to put out the fire.
But the fire was so great that the water they brought was just a drop in the bucket for the raging fire.
Everyone knows that there is no way to save him! That's too late!
This fire will consume everything!
"Let go -" Mu Canglin suddenly shouted angrily, and those around him who were clinging to him were all thrown away by a powerful force.
Immediately afterwards, before everyone could recover, Mu Canglin rushed in without looking back.
"Your Majesty——"
"Your Majesty, I don't want it—" No matter how heart-rending those people shouted, Mu Canglin's back disappeared into the fierce flames.
Even Mu Jingheng on the side was stunned at this time.
After a while, he heard someone next to him say: "I'm afraid the King of Zhenbei won't be able to come back!"
It seemed that at this moment, Mu Jingheng finally recovered.
Can't come back? Wouldn’t it be more like what he wished for!
It saves him the back-up plan he prepared for Mu Canglin!
The fire burned for two full hours, during which not a single living thing could escape from it.
When the flames extinguished, only some broken walls and ruins remained in the huge prison.
The guards went in to search, but found two bodies hugging each other in the cell.
The corpses had been burned beyond recognition by the fire. The charred and deformed corpses were hugged together. Beside them, there were some jewelry that had not been burned by the fire hanging down.
Someone picked it up and took a closer look and found that these were exactly the accessories worn by Mu Canglin and Yun Jiutang.
This time, his men burst into tears.
Soon, the news naturally reached the emperor.
The emperor couldn't breathe at that time, he vomited blood and fainted.
Mu Mingchao also came over after hearing the news and couldn't help crying.
At this time, Mu Jingheng said directly: "The fire started in Princess Zhenbei's cell. When I came, the place was covered with thick straw, which made it easier to ignite the flames!
Third brother, I heard that you sent someone to deliver this straw! You have always been at odds with her, but you don’t know what your motives are for doing this now! "
"No! I didn't! I was just afraid of the cold here, so I wanted to put more straw!" Mu Mingchao was in pain, while Mu Jingheng pressed forward step by step.
"Whether you did it intentionally or not, you can't change the fact that it was you who killed the King of Zhenbei and the Princess! Third brother, go and plead guilty to your father yourself!" Mu Jingheng said coldly, almost unable to bear it. Laugh out loud.
This time, all obstacles were removed, and he could already see the throne waving towards him!
