The fire also came in a very strange way. It only burned wildly on the corridors and streets, and did not burn into ordinary people's homes.
It turned out that a few days ago, Tang Jiuge had asked Yu Han to find an excuse to collect all the wood products outside the walls of people's houses.
Things that cannot be taken in, such as doors and windows, are coated with fire-resistant materials so that they will not burn into the house in a short period of time and injure unrelated people.
Hundreds of people in the alley were killed in an instant.
Tang Miaoxin was a man of two generations, even though he failed to learn certain classes in the Imperial College and had to cheat.
But overall, she is extremely knowledgeable and has learned a lot of side knowledge.
With just one glance, she could tell that not only was there something wrong with the fire, but the alleyway beneath the fire had also been tampered with.
I used machine techniques and formations during this process, and the timing was also very good.
A little later, they would have reached the door; a little earlier, they would not have all entered the alleyway.
When Lin Yue came over, he happened to see fire coming out of the ground and burning the soldiers to death.
Watching helplessly, the whole street turned into a sea of flames.
He asked people to put out the fire, but found that when the water was poured on it, the fire was not extinguished, but instead jumped higher.
The guards around him were stained with fire and rolled on the ground without being able to extinguish it. Instead, they burned themselves to death.
As the commander of the Royal Forest Army, Lin Yue has seen all kinds of big scenes, but this is the first time he has seen such a strange scene.
The eyes of the imperial guards he brought over all had fear in their eyes.
Emperor Cheng Ming had asked him to send more people over before, but he felt that Emperor Cheng Ming was too cautious. He was just arresting one person, and dozens of people would be enough.
But the first wave of people they sent over didn't even see the shadow of the real owner, and they were all shot dead in the alleyway.
This time hundreds of people were sent over, and he thought he would be able to capture him, but he didn't expect such an incredible thing to happen.
Lin Yue's expression was extremely ugly. At this time, the fire in the alleyway was burning brightly and could not be extinguished for a while.
He ordered people to guard this place, and he personally went back to report what happened here to Emperor Cheng Ming.
Emperor Chengming was currently on the viewing platform of Wangjiang Tower. From his perspective, he could see the fire burning there.
There was murderous intent in his eyes: "It is indeed him! He is indeed still alive!"
Lin Yue knelt on the ground and said: "I am incompetent. Basically all the soldiers I brought there were killed."
He thought that Emperor Cheng Ming would punish him severely, but he didn't expect that Emperor Cheng Ming said: "If he was so easy to kill, I wouldn't have paid such a high price for killing him back then!"
"I'm not surprised at all that you were defeated by him."
Lin Yue asked curiously: "Your Majesty, who is that person?"
Emperor Cheng Ming's eyes narrowed slightly: "Who is he? Ha! It's just a person who has been dead for many years!"
"If he doesn't come to the capital, I might not be able to do anything to him, but once he arrives in the capital, I won't let him leave alive!"
After he finished speaking, he said in a deep voice: "You take a group of people over there. No matter what price you pay tonight, we won't let him live to see the sun tomorrow!"
Lin Yue has been with Emperor Cheng Ming for many years, and this is the first time he has seen him show such a murderous expression.
Lin Yue bowed and said: "I accept your order!"
Emperor Chengming waved his hand lightly, and Lin Yue retreated.
Emperor Cheng Ming looked at the place where the flames were rising, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
He had already ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and basically everyone in the Yan Dynasty was under his control.
He is decisive in killing and domineering. If there is one person in the world that he fears, that person is Tang Jiuge.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and events from more than ten years ago appeared in front of his eyes:
Emperor Cheng Ming and Tang Jiuge were very familiar with each other more than ten years ago. The reason why they were familiar with each other was because of Tang Jiuge's talent that shocked the world.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Tang Jiuge was the most talented person in the entire Dayan. What was rare was that he was not that pedantic scholar.
Not only is he very knowledgeable, he is also a person who understands things by analogy. He can see the essence of the matter at a glance and find the best solution no matter what.
Emperor Chengming admired Tang Jiuge very much and tried his best to take Tang Jiuge for his own use.
Tang Jiuge seemed gentle and gentle, but in fact he was not easy to get close to. No matter how he tried to win over her, Tang Jiuge remained indifferent.
At that time, Emperor Chengming didn't have the current city, so he couldn't hold his breath.
He used some tricks on Tang Jiuge, but Tang Jiuge found out unexpectedly.
Tang Jiuge felt that he was the kind of person with deep scheming and ulterior motives. He once scolded his bad character in front of many people and broke off friendship with him.
Emperor Chengming didn't expect that Tang Jiuge would do such a thing. He couldn't get off the stage for a while, and it was the regent who was trying to smooth things over.
The regent was entrusted by Emperor Daxing to assist the then young emperor.
At that time, Emperor Chengming was just an idle prince. He was not the son of Emperor Daxing, but a nephew.
Because Emperor Daxing had too few heirs, he was summoned to accompany the young emperor in the capital. He came to the capital originally for the highest position.
And to accomplish this is never a simple matter.
The people he tried so hard to win over immediately distanced themselves from him because of Tang Jiuge's words.
From then on, Emperor Chengming wanted to kill Tang Jiuge.
Because Tang Jiuge was obviously on the side of the young emperor and helped the regent to help the young emperor ascend to power.
Emperor Chengming knew that if he wanted to gain the world, he must kill Tang Jiuge!
Tang Jiuge was smart, alert, extremely capable, and was on guard against him. Plus, with the regent around, it was basically impossible for him to kill Tang Jiuge.
So Emperor Chengming made a decision. He planned to kill the regent first, and then use the regent's death to lure Tang Jiuge into the game.
In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he bribed Cheng Lixue, who was close to Tang Jiuge, with huge profits, and laid a sure-fire situation for Tang Jiuge.
He personally took an arrow and shot Tang Jiuge in the chest, and then set it on fire.
The fire that night was much greater than the fire tonight. He still hasn't figured out how Tang Jiuge escaped that night.
Emperor Chengming suddenly opened his eyes and looked again at the sea of fire that had gradually extinguished.
He said coldly: "I don't care how you escaped, you must die this time!"
Ning Guzhou, who was patrolling the city, had heard the sound of fighting before. When he came to check, he was blocked by the imperial guards.
When Ning Guzhou saw that it was the Imperial Guards doing the work, he knew that this was what Emperor Cheng Ming wanted.
Since it was Emperor Cheng Ming's wish, he didn't bother to ask, since those things had nothing to do with him anyway.
When he was about to leave, Li Mo Li hurried over and said anxiously: "My lord, the princess is missing!"
Ning Guzhou frowned and said, "What happened?"
Tonight, in the capital city, there are layers of murderous intent. Almost all the Imperial Guards and Jingji Guards were dispatched to guard the important roads. Could this be because of Tang Miaoxin?
