The most powerful minister in the world

Jingxi stood up suddenly and looked out the window, only to see fire blazing into the sky in the south, thick smoke billowing, and the falling white snow in the sky clearly visible under the light of the fire.

The cold wind blowing in from the window brought Jingxi back to his senses. That was the direction of Honglu Temple!

Jingxi cursed and rushed out of the room. Lian'er picked up his cloak and went out to chase him, but he was nowhere to be seen when he went out. He only heard a whistle and then another snow eagle's cry. Xiaobai Hovering in the sky and then swooping down, the handsome figure of a dragon-flowered horse galloped from the stone arch.

Jingxi turned around, grabbed the reins and jumped up, Xiaobai landed on his shoulders.

"Xiaobai, go home and call someone!" Xiaobai chirped and flew towards Jingfu.

The dragon-flowered horse galloped non-stop in the wind and snow, and the snowflakes were blowing on Jingxi's face like blades. The bone-chilling cold wind was blowing into his collar, and his eyes were full of murderous intent!

On the other side, the fire was spreading. Starting from Honglu Temple, the three streets before and after were ignited with raging fire. In a blink of an eye, it burned from the street to the end of the street. The fire was irreversible and the people fled one after another.

On the street of Honglu Temple, a man was burned until his face was black. He exhaled a puff of black smoke and collapsed to the ground. Suddenly he burst into tears and said: "It's over, it's over. Honglu Temple is gone. It's a capital crime, a capital crime!"

Zhao Xiang, the minister of Honglu Temple who arrived in a rage, looked at Li Sanli who was collapsed on the ground, grabbed him by the collar and said angrily: "What on earth is going on?!"

"God knows what happened. There were explosions on the three streets in front and behind. The fire was so intense that Honglu Temple was affected. We tried our best to save people, but only five of the twenty or so people who went in came out!"

Hearing this, Zhao Xiang felt his eyes go dark and almost stumbled to the ground. Thanks to the support from his colleagues from Honglu Temple behind him, he could only hear him murmuring: "What a natural disaster!"

Then he came to his senses and asked anxiously: "Where is the Chen State envoy?"

The Xielu Lang of Honglu Temple on the side coughed: "I haven't returned for a day, and I don't know where I went."

"This is all like this. It seems useless. Why don't you go find someone!"

Everyone dispersed, and Jingxi came on horseback. Zhao Xiang saw him as if he had seen a savior. He quickly pushed away everyone and ran over to kneel down to Jingxi: "Second Young Master, please quickly ask the city patrol department to put out the fire!"

Jingxi's face was itching unbearably from the flames on both sides. He pulled the reins and shouted, "Where is the Chen State delegation?!"

"I haven't seen anyone for a day. I don't know where I went. Second Young Master, please go to the City Patrol Department quickly. Honglu Temple will really be gone if it's too late!"

Jingxi looked at the fire around him and saw that there was no chance of saving him anymore. He frowned and shouted angrily: "Is this poor place more important, or is human life more important? I think you are dizzy, why don't you lead the people to evacuate quickly?" go out!"

Zhao Xiang wiped the sweat from his forehead, suddenly woke up and quickly ordered everyone to evacuate. At this moment, the door frame of the high-rise building suddenly collapsed and hit Zhao Xiang. The orange sea of ​​​​fire was like a blossoming fire lotus. Xiang knew there was no way to hide, so he closed his eyes and waited for death.

At this critical moment, Jing Xi rushed into the hollow door and dragged Zhao Xiang out.

"Second Young Master's life-saving grace will never be forgotten by me."

Jingxi looked at Zhao Xiang who was kneeling on the ground and cursed: "If you can fucking stand up, lead the people out as soon as possible!"

After saying that, Jingxi turned the horse's head, flicked his whip and galloped away. Zhao Xiang was helped up by everyone, and he quickly shouted: "Get out quickly, quickly!"

Jingxi rushed out of the sea of ​​​​fire and went straight to Dali Temple. On the road, soldiers and horses from the City Patrol Department rushed from various streets to the scene of the incident. The whole city was on alert. Tonight was going to be a sleepless night!

The front door of Dali Temple was already heavily guarded. Wu Qingfeng, the minister of Dali Temple who was personally guarding the door, saw Jing Xi rushing over on horseback with a dirty face. He immediately ran down the steps and pursed his lips tightly and said: "Second Young Master is from Honglu Temple. ?”

"Damn it, it's hopeless there. The soldiers and horses from the City Patrol Department have rushed over to control the fire. How is that bastard inside?"

Wu Qingfeng took Jing Xi's hand and murmured in a low voice: "I happened to be on duty tonight. Before I could lie down, I heard a loud noise and saw the fire over Honglu Temple rising into the sky. I was afraid that someone was confused. , In fact, he came to rescue Junhao Li, so he quickly arranged for all the people he could call to guard him inside and outside the temple."

"Let me go in and take a look!"

Wu Qingfeng quickly led Jingxi into the dungeon. When he arrived at the door of Li Junhao's cell, he saw him leaning on the stone wall, his eyes closed and his breath weak.

"He has been unconscious since he mutilated himself. He asked the imperial doctor to check his pulse and perform acupuncture twice a day, but there was still no improvement."

Jingxi stared at Li Junhao and felt something was wrong, so he asked Wu Qingfeng to open the cell door. Wu Qingfeng knew that the situation was urgent and quickly opened the chains.

Jingxi quickly walked up to Li Junhao, picked up his chin, and looked at him carefully: "Li Junhao, you are dead or alive, give me some reaction!"

Li Junhao was like a dead corpse, breathing only weakly. No matter how hard Jingxi pulled him, there was no reaction at all.

"Go and find hot water, piping hot!"

Wu Qingfeng hesitated: "This won't work. He is too weak now to be touched by cold water, let alone hot water. Besides, he may not know the reason for what is happening outside."

"Then you have to ask to find out. Go, hurry up!"

Wu Qingfeng immediately ordered someone to bring boiling hot water. Jingxi took it and poured it on Li Junhao's face without saying a word, but the guy didn't react like a dead pig.

Jing Xi paced back and forth anxiously, his mind spinning rapidly. If the fire outside was not created to save him, would there be anything else that would cause such a big fuss? Everyone in Chen Guo's mission disappeared at the same time. Except for this matter, Jing Xi really couldn't think of anything else.

At this moment, the moonlight came in through the small window on the top of the cell, hit the bronze mirror guarding outside, and then returned to shine on Li Junhao's face.

Jingxi looked around, his eyes suddenly opened and his pupils were extremely narrowed. He knelt down and touched Li Junhao's face. Suddenly! Jingxi tore off Li Junhao's entire face!

Wu Qingfeng was shocked at first, and then realized something was wrong. He quickly walked over and squatted down to see where Li Junhao was!

He is obviously an ordinary person with an ordinary appearance!

"Damn, it's the disguise technique. We were all fooled. Li Junhao really was changed away when the Chen State delegation first came in!"

Wu Qingfeng felt that the blood in his internal organs was flowing backwards, and shouted: "Impossible, I have sent people to keep an eye on me, how can I let them change people under my nose?"

Jingxi grabbed Wu Qingfeng's collar and yelled angrily: "Then I have to ask you! Who was on duty that day and where are these people now? Why don't you find someone to control them!"

Wu Qingfeng rushed out to get someone. Just as Jing Xi was about to leave, he heard the person pretending to be Li Junhao murmur in a thin voice: "Haha, cough, is this all you southerners have? Our general used such I'll trick you all with just a few tricks, bah~ If you still want to fight with our Chen Guo like this, stop your wishful thinking!"

"Hahaha, you must be the second son of the Jing family army. Our general asked me to bring you a message. He is waiting for you outside the south city gate!"

Jingxi glanced at the jailer and forced out a sentence through his teeth: "Don't let him die too comfortably."

After saying this, Jingxi rushed out of Dali Temple, mounted a dragon-flowered horse and said to the guards at the door: "Inform the patrol officers to close the city gate tightly, and the rest of the people will follow me to the south gate!"

The south of the mountain is dark with snow and the north is dark, and the moon is overcast for thousands of miles. Outside the south city gate, you have to fall down the suspension bridge to pass. The cliff here is naturally formed and is more than one meter wide. It can be said to be a natural chasm.

On top of the frozen river on the cliff, a handsome man in black corset sat on a wooden bench with a white velvet fur coat draped around him. Behind him were many guards standing boldly in the wind and snow. The firewood under an iron pot had long been extinguished. You can still vaguely see oil floating on the soup that is about to freeze inside.

"General, do you think that boy from the Jing family army has the ability to spot something fishy?"

Duan Wuya sucked on the noodles and glanced sideways at the guard holding an umbrella for him and smiled: "It's best to find out, otherwise it will be boring."

"Here, I'll give you a garlic clove to eat."

The guard caught it and started eating. Duan Tianya looked at the fire and billowing smoke in the city without any expression while eating the noodles.

Duan Wuya finished the bowl of noodles very quickly, not even the soup was left. He stood up, patted the garlic skin on his body and said with some disappointment, "Let's go."

The moment Duan Wuya turned around, a sharp arrow pierced the sky, making a tearing sound among the cliffs, and shot straight towards Duan Tianya's back.

In the midst of the wind and snow, Duan Wuya had already turned around, holding a sharp arrow in his hand and looking at Jingxi who was shooting arrows on the city gate tower. He could feel him even across the cliff of Cannot Cry February. A look that could kill.

Duan Wuya was holding the sharp arrow and pacing with his hands behind his back. He seemed a little excited. Finally he laughed loudly: "Second Young Master, Duan has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Duan Wuya! Don't you feel ashamed to use such a dirty method?!"

Jingxi's angry voice could not be concealed even by the heavy wind and snow. Duan Wuya also seemed to be enjoying his anger, standing on the snow with his hands behind his hands and laughing loudly: "Second Young Master, you are joking. You are also familiar with the art of war." , I know that war is always deceitful, but in the final analysis, you can win without using force. If someone in the capital hadn't restrained you, Duan might not have dared to act like this."

"I would like to thank the Second Young Master for giving Duan this opportunity to make a name for himself."

Jingxi's hand gripped the bow and arrow fiercely. The suspension bridge had been destroyed, and there was no possibility of pursuit. Now there was a headwind, and the archers he brought did not have the ability to shoot across.

"Second Young Master, I left a gift for you under the poplar tree in the west courtyard of your house. You should dig it out and take a look at it when you have time."

Jingxi watched helplessly as Duan Wuya climbed onto his horse and raised the arrow in his hand, but could do nothing.

"Second Young Master, I invite everyone from Honglu Temple to watch the New Year's fireworks for free. Hahaha~ This arrow will be hung on the door curtain of the bedroom so that you can watch it every day, when the wind and snow are getting stronger. , Duan has to go on his way, so let’s just say goodbye.”

Duan Wuya bowed on his horse, pulled the reins and galloped away, disappearing into the wind and snow.

Jingxi broke the bow in his hand in half and roared: "Duan Wuya, I will cut you into pieces!"
