After being divorced, the concubine became the first lady

In the capital, where the emperor lives, there are countless powerful ministers, and the public security is of course extraordinary.

There are strict curfew times and regular Janissary patrols throughout the night.

After the ugly hour, it is not far from dawn, and it is also the time when people sleep the most, so at this time, nothing usually happens.

The leader of the Imperial Guard who took over subconsciously glanced at the dark sky in the distance. It was unusual. They had a secret order that would kill the nine clans if it was leaked - they must always pay attention to the movements of the Chu family.

This secret order made him complain endlessly.

How to pay attention?

That was Chu Jinjin. The entire patrol together was not enough for her to fight alone. So what would happen if she found out.

But he also has some understanding of the current situation and understands why the court did what it did.

There are still two days until the wedding day, so I can only pray that nothing will happen.

The leader of the Praetorian Guard looked at the sky again and really hoped that it would be dawn soon.

The fixed path also changed as a result. The leader of the Imperial Guard cheered up and started patrolling with his men. Wherever he could see, he happened to be in the direction of the Chu family.

In the future, in the bustling big cities, let alone a little fire, even if there is a fire, you may not be able to see it.

One of the guards realized something was wrong first and said in a low voice: "Sir, there seems to be a fire?"

The night was too dark, and every house was shrouded in darkness, with a little firelight so obvious.

The leader of the Imperial Guard narrowed his eyes.

The direction is the direction of the Chu family, but it is not certain that it is the Chu family.

Maybe some people's houses were on fire, or for other reasons.

However, this is a good reason to get closer!

The leader of the Imperial Guard immediately went on alert, waved his hand and whispered: "Follow, don't make any noise."

It is said that the emperor promised Chu Jinjin that no one should follow him, so as not to cause misunderstanding.

No one can offend Chu Jinjin today.

He was just thinking about how to explain himself if the Chu family found out, when he heard the low exclamations of his subordinates.

"It's floating, why is the fire floating?"

In the dark night sky, the flames gradually grew larger and slowly rose into the sky at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, everyone in the Chu family, except Chu Jinjin and the Black Eagle Village bandits they had seen, looked shocked.

As I said, knowing and actually seeing it are two completely different shocks.

In order to ensure safety, the first hot air balloon that floated was full of soft things and did not carry any people.

The flames grew bigger and bigger, and the soft dome bulged up like a candy blower, until it turned into a huge hemisphere.

Only then did everyone understand why a thick rope was tied - the rope was straightened and tightened at this moment. If it hadn't been, it would have flown into the sky long ago.

Yuan Tianyou murmured: "Really, really flying."

Of course, hot air balloons must be controlled by humans.

A Blackhawk cottage bandit jumped up, checked again, and nodded after confirming it was correct.

The people below immediately untied the rope.

A scene comparable to a miracle happened. The hot air balloon broke free from its restraints and slowly ascended. The Black Hawk Bandits inside were the first batch of specially trained people and immediately pulled the rope that controlled the direction.

The top of the hot air balloon changed its angle and faced the direction of Black Eagle Village.

At the same time, when the flames encountered the wind, the fire became more intense, the invisible billowing heat flow also became larger and larger, and the speed of the hot air balloon suddenly became much faster.

There is not much time to be shocked. Such a huge momentum will soon alert the Imperial Guards, who must fly to a safe enough height and distance before arriving.

For the second hot ball, the man goes first.

It's not that the men are important, but the unanimous decision of the women. They are afraid of heights and are afraid to let the men go up first.

The head of the family, Chu Jingde, was supported and was the first to go up, followed by Chu Yan and Chu Zukian who were being carried.

Chu Jinjin looked at Zhan Qin.

Zhan Qin looked at Yuan Tianyou and growled: "Come on."

Yuan Tianyou took a step back without any warning. He didn't know when a delicate and small dagger appeared in his hand. He put it against his throat and said with a smile: "Miss Jinjin, please hurry up. The emperor has agreed not to send anyone to keep an eye on you." Now, all the Imperial Guards are actually on standby, and I'm afraid they will arrive soon."

He saw the hot air balloon's weakness.

The basket carrying people below, the place where the flames are burning, and the top of the ball are all afraid of bows and arrows.

Zhan Qin's eyes were about to burst: "Yuan Tianyou, don't you want to cause trouble?"

Yuan Tianyou shook his head slowly: "Qin'er, my father will never leave."

In this life, he lived for the word of loyalty. He had already failed Zhan Qin's mother and could no longer fail the court.

For the sake of the people, he could choose to support Chu Jinjin, but as far as the court was concerned, he was guilty, and his mistake was a mistake, and he should be punished by law.

As we get older, living is no longer the most important thing.

We must have a beginning and an end, and be worthy of the world and ourselves.

Chu Jinjin signaled Zhan Qin not to get excited and sighed: "Master Yuan, why are you bothering?"

A person who truly seeks death cannot be saved, and the distance is so close, and the dagger is close to her throat, even if she flies, she can't make it in time.

"I am kind to the emperor, but he would put me in jail in a rage and would not kill me and my family." Yuan Tianyou smiled with a relaxed expression, "Besides, how could he dare to kill me when Miss Jinjin is here. "

In the battle for the throne back then, Xiao Huai was not the first choice. Without him, there would be no Xiao Huai today. That is a huge contribution. Xiao Huai would not be murderous no matter what.

Of course, his end won't be much better.

Then there is Chu Jinjin.

She went to the Northern Desert, and as long as there was no final result for a day, it would still be a huge deterrent.

Yuan Tianyou stepped back step by step and said slowly word by word: "I hope Miss Jinjin will not let me pay for it in vain, and we must destroy the zombies and the Northern Desert army."

There were tears in Zhan Qin's eyes for the first time: "Yuan Tianyou, what if I forgive you."

Yuan Tianyou paused in his steps and laughed silently, laughing with unprecedented joy.

This is what he should do.

At this moment, a sharp whistle suddenly pierced the sky.

Everyone looked in the direction of the palace.

Yuan Tianyou shouted: "Come on, the Imperial Guards are coming."

That's the alarm whistle.

Chu Jinjin took a deep look at him, no longer hesitated, and forcibly pulled Zhan Qin onto the hot air balloon. Needless to say, the rest of the people immediately hurriedly lined up and jumped onto the hot air balloon fearfully.

Liu's body was trembling. She was severely afraid of heights. Jinjin held her daughter's arm.

The first hot air balloon has risen high enough and is floating in the sky, with flames burning like an unreal dream.

"Is there anyone who hasn't arrived yet?" Chu Jinjin glanced around, confirmed that there were many, and shouted, "Let's go."

They couldn't just think about their families, but also the Black Eagle Cottage bandits who came to help. The hot air balloon couldn't carry that many, and they had to evacuate quickly before the Guards arrived.

The sound of rapid and powerful footsteps approached quickly.
