The people were all standing on the street, and not long after they saw Ma Zhiyuan coming out with a long-burned body on his back.
The face of the corpse was no longer visible, but from Ma Zhiyuan's sad face, the people also believed it.
This corpse lived in the emperor's residence.
The people knelt down on the ground and watched Ma Zhiyuan slowly leave with his body on his back.
When Ma Zhiyuan returned to the Qixian County Government, Lu Yifa happened to come back from outside.
He had just gone to the clinic and healed the wound on his back.
The doctor told Lu Yifa that if it weren't for the stone on his back, it wouldn't be such a minor injury.
When Lu Yi sent him back to the Qi County Government, he happened to see Ma Zhiyuan coming back with his body on his back.
Later, officials in Qi County also carried such a car on their backs.
"Where did Lu Changshi go all night?" Ma Zhiyuan put the body on his back on the ground and then looked at Lu Yifa.
"Yesterday the fire had already covered the East Courtyard. Zhao Chen happened to appear and forced me to capture him with words."
"I brought two hundred people to chase Zhao Chen..."
"Then did you catch him?" Ma Zhiyuan interrupted Lu Yifa's words in a cold voice.
Lu Yifa shook his head. As soon as the sky-bombing cannon came out yesterday, he was completely confused.
Many dead soldiers around him were also killed.
When they came to their senses, they saw thousands of people fighting in the distance.
Lu Yifa knew that he could no longer catch Zhao Chen, so he took the dead soldier's body away.
"Have you ever warned you many times to not care about Zhao Chen, he is here to lure you away and then take the opportunity to rescue the emperor."
"Fortunately, the bodies of the emperor and Li Ke are all here."
"Go, write a letter to Chang'an and tell him that our mission here has been completed."
"Now, wait for the good news from Chang'an." Ma Zhiyuan scolded Lu Yifa, but suddenly his face became kind.
Lu Yifa looked at the two corpses on the ground.
He thought in his heart that their luck was so good. Even if he didn't catch Zhao Chen, the emperor still died in the fire.
"What are they dead like this?" Lu Yifa suddenly asked this question by a stranger.
Perhaps for Lu Yifa himself, it was really surprising that the Emperor and Li Ke were burned to death in the Governor's Office.
"What else do you want?" Ma Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.
Lu Yifa felt guilty, then nodded and turned around and exited the hall.
Ma Zhiyuan looked at the two burnt corpses on the ground and felt a little annoyed.
"Where is the Duwei Huang, let him come and see me." Ma Zhiyuan remembered the Duwei Zichengfu again.
Although it is not very important for the emperor to be in front of him or not.
If they do this, they will not have a chance to look back.
If the emperor really dies, they will really rest assured and just wait for the good news from the Chang'an people.
If the emperor is not dead, then what awaits them will be a dead end.
Now for officials of all sizes and big and small in Qizhou, they don’t have to do anything anymore.
The only thing you need is to wait.
Huang Duwei came over soon.
Ma Zhiyuan looked at Huang Duwei and his eyes looked a little sharp.
"Governor, what happened?" Huang Duwei asked Ma Zhian on his own initiative.
"The emperor and Shu King Li Ke were both burned to death by the fire. This is their corpse." Ma Zhiyuan pointed to the two corpses on the ground and said to Huang Duwei.
When Huang Duwei heard this, his face showed ecstasy.
The emperor's death means that their plan is successful.
In a short time, he, Huang Duwei, will be granted the title of Duke.
Thinking that he would be Duke of the Tang Dynasty in the future, Huang Duwei's back was straight.
Ma Zhiyuan saw that Huang Duwei looked like this and knew what he was thinking.
Instead of exposing him, he asked, "The people from Zhechong Mansion in Huangzhou rushed into the city yesterday. Fortunately, you commanded it properly, so you did not make a big mistake."
"You remember to send someone to investigate outside the city later to see if the people in Zhechong Prefecture in Huangzhou are still outside the city."
Ma Zhiyuan wants to make sure of it in the end.
If the soldiers from Zhechong Prefecture in Huangzhou are still outside the city, it means that the emperor is still alive.
If he is not here, then Ma Zhiyuan can breathe a sigh of relief.
"Yes, Governor." Huang Duwei left.
...
When Zhao Chen woke up, it was noon the next day.
When the sky-bombing cannons were shattered by Lu Yi and the others, Zhao Chen also took the opportunity to leave.
It was just that the wound on his left arm had bleeding too much before, which made him feel extremely weak.
I didn't go far, and I felt my head groggy.
Zhao Chen only remembered that he vaguely saw Li Ruoshuang running towards him on a horse.
When I woke up again, I was already on the bed.
"Wake up, how do you feel?" Li Ruoshuang's face turned to Zhao Chen, with concern on her face.
"It feels good, nothing is wrong." Zhao Chen nodded. He understood that yesterday was either an illusion or Li Ruoshuang rescued him back.
"It's okay, your left arm is penetrated by arrows. The doctor said that if it is sent later, your arm will not be able to be saved!" Li Ruoshuang stood up and looked at Zhao Chen angrily.
She didn't sleep all night last night, afraid that something would happen to Zhao Chen.
Now that he saw Zhao Chen awake, his eyes were filled with fear.
Zhao Chen knew that Li Ruoshuang was worried about him, so he stretched out his right hand to grab Li Ruoshuang's arm and smiled and said, "Isn't this okay?"
"Besides, if I didn't show up at that time, what should the Emperor and Li Ke do?"
"You said they were safely escaped, where are you!"
"Who cares about you!" Li Ruoshuang interrupted Zhao Chen and made a frustration for Zhao Chen.
The emperor had just escaped and he would definitely not be able to show up here again.
What the emperor has to do now is to go back to Chang'an and find out the person behind the scenes.
Only such a trip to Qizhou can be considered completely concluded.
"Isn't this you?" Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Li Ruoshuang didn't speak, and she wanted to persuade Zhao Chen not to charge forward again in the future.
But I don't know how to say this.
The emperor needs Zhao Chen’s help, can he advise Zhao Chen not to do it?
But every time Zhao Chen goes out, Li Ruoshuang is so worried that she can't sleep.
"Okay, I promise that this will never happen again in the future." Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang promised.
Li Ruoshuang then wiped his eyes, pulled out his little hand that was caught by Zhao Chen, and said angrily: "You know how to coax me."
"You lie down and rest, I'll go and have a bowl of noodles for you."
After saying that, Li Ruoshuang walked out.
Before Li Ruoshuang could go out, Cheng Chumo pushed open the door and sneaked into the room.
"What's wrong, it's like a thief?" Zhao Chen's voice sounded.
Cheng Chumo came over with a cat and saw that Zhao Chen was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately you're fine. When I came here last night, my sister-in-law almost killed me with a sword." Cheng Chumo had a look of fear on his face.
It seems that Li Ruoshuang became extremely irritable last night because of her own affairs.
"What's going on outside now?" Zhao Chen smiled, Li Ruoshuang was just angry because she was worried about herself for a moment.
