Chapter 181 Burning sacrifices (seven)

"General, I'll go!" Xuan Ming was about to draw his sword.

"No... You can't get there at this position. Even if we two are not able to take Bai Ling away smoothly. There are too many officers and soldiers around. There are so many people here, but we can't fight a way out."

Bai Jue looked in the direction of Gu Wanqing and shook his head slowly and heavily.

It means - no need to save it.

Gu Wanqing's hand was still on the sword, and he knew how difficult it was for Bai Jue to make this decision.

The plan was clearly arranged, but was completely disturbed by the Heavenly Master. Bai Ling could not change it on the way, and it was even more impossible to walk to the altar.

Even if you are saving people in front of everyone, even if you drag the Bai family to seek death, Bai Ling cannot be saved.

Gu Wanqing's eyes were moist and she felt very uncomfortable.

Bai Jue, staring at Qiang Feihuo's eyes, slowly closed.

"The auspicious time is here!" The official of the ceremony announced.

The Master of Heaven drew a few runes with a brush and threw them into the fire. The fire changed from fiery red to blue, and soon it turned into fiery red again, which was very dreamy.

Everyone was shouting and celebrating.

"Please give sacrifices to heaven!"

Bai Ling smiled with a smile on the corner of his lips, without any fear in his eyes, and stepped onto the altar step by step and threw away the hat.

His face was raised, and he welcomed the last ray of sunshine that could be seen in his life.

Then he spread his arms and flew into the fire like a white bird spreading its wings.

Xuan Ming almost screamed and hugged Gu Wanqing tightly and didn't dare to look at the altar.

Bai Jue also clenched his hands tightly, and his heart was thrusting. Bai Yansheng, who was not far away, lowered his head from beginning to end, enduring and not daring to cry.

Bai Ling fell into the flames and was instantly surrounded by fire waves.

"Quick! Protect the Emperor!"

Someone in the guard exclaimed, and the guards drew their swords and blocked them around the emperor.

The third prince Rong Sheng heard the scream and rushed over and blocked the emperor with his entire body, "Be careful, Father!"

But the emperor was not attacked.

Only then did everyone see that a few masked men in black rushed out of the strong backlight.

They flew down from somewhere commanding heights, jumped directly into the stove, and pulled Bai Ling, who had just fallen into the stove and was covered with the fire, and pulled him back.

He quickly put out the fire on Bai Ling's body, wrapped it in a black cloth bag, and flew away with Bai Ling again.

At this time, the wind was roaring, and everyone was blinded by the wind and sand.

And these men in black came and went without a trace, and the defenders did not react for a while - weren't they assassinating the emperor? But they robbed Bai Ling?

The eunuch beside the emperor shouted: "Hurry! Go and chase!"

Rong He immediately stood up and reported, "Father! My son just saw those men in black coming from the southeast corner and left in that direction!"

"You!" Rong Jin, who was already panicked, almost got to his tongue, but he didn't dare to tell the difference.

"Why go to the southeast corner to speed up the search?!" The emperor was furious and yelled, "No one of the people present today will leave, check it out for me! Where is Bai Jue? Where is Bai Jue!"

Bai Jue, who had retreated to the crowd, immediately appeared in front of the emperor. A layer of cold sweat was already stained with his forehead, "I'm here."

The emperor looked at him scrutinizedly, "You go find Bai Ling for me! If you can't find it, then I will determine that you are the mastermind of this matter."

"I obey the order..."

Today's incident can be remembered by anyone.

First of all, he and Bai Ling are brothers.

Secondly, he has enough ability to complete the robbery.

Gu Wanqing under the altar did not figure out what was going on, nor did she see where the man in black was chasing him.

But she looked suspiciously at Prince Rong He who seemed to be restless since the beginning.

It was obvious that no one could see where the man in black came from. If it was in the southeast corner, then the stands where they were located was a blind spot in their vision.

The prince...is something wrong.

It rained heavily and everyone was in a fog.

The people did not dare to escape when they were wet in the rain, and they were surrounded by officers and soldiers.

The second prince Rong Jin looked at Prince Rong He in horror, wanting to ask him what was going on.

According to information, Rong He should have taken action from the southeast corner, but there was no movement there.

If the emperor investigates thoroughly now, he will definitely find that there are soldiers under Rong He’s men in the southeast corner.

This is a big deal!

...

This should have been a day for Yan'an City to pray for the gods. Everyone was hoping that the Southern Yan Dynasty, which was baptized by this ceremony, could be peaceful for a hundred years.

In the history of the Southern Yan Dynasty, no one dared to escape from sacrifices.

Today's events, whether Bai Ling is alive or not, are the most shameful moves in the history of the Southern Yan Dynasty.

Moreover, the failure of the sacrifice means that a life that is not peaceful recently will lead to worse things.

The sudden rain was sparse and the sound of slapping on the ground was loud.

Everyone in Yan'an City was worried, and the harsh and noisy sound of rain was destined to be not an ordinary night.

At the time of Xu, the Jin'an Hall was still brightly lit, and many ministers stood there.

Half an hour ago, the emperor's subordinates had found that there were people in the palace below the altar. Several suspicious people were caught in the southeast corner, without any torture. From the waist card of one of them, it was obvious that it was the person next to the second prince.

Dali Temple, the Censorate and the Ministry of Justice, are reviewed together, which is an unprecedented efficiency.

Soon, these people had already been recruited. They were indeed ordered by the second prince. They dressed up as passers-by early in the morning and waited in the southeast corner of the altar.

However, the second prince had not conveyed the specific order yet, and was just saying that he would wait for the suspicious person to come. Such a vague statement would not be possible for them to interrogate clearly for a while.

But after searching around, there is only one clue that can be used, only they are suspicious.

So when Bai Jue went out to track Bai Ling, he could only speculate more in the court.

At this time, the wind and the wind are in a panic, and a clue will appear particularly eye-catching.

Therefore, when he received this news, the emperor slapped the second prince loudly in front of everyone in Jin'an Palace.

"Rebellious son!!"

The ministers knelt down one after another, but none of them dared to plead for mercy, even the second prince's confidant.

None of them had ever seen the emperor get so angry that everyone was so angry that they could beat and scold the second prince who was usually favored.

The second prince was slapped by the emperor and rolled under the stairs. He crawled at the feet of the minister, and fell to his eyes.

Concubine Zhang was stopped outside Jin'an Palace. No matter how embarrassed she was by the wind and rain, the emperor would not allow her to enter the palace.
