Consort Zhanzhao

The two looked at each other, Yang and An narrowed their eyes, "What's the business of Mr. Pang calling our house?"

Pang Min couldn't help beating the drums in his heart, what on earth is he here for?It's just that he was not allowed to think too much in a hurry, and he could only continue acting according to his usual impression to the outside world.

"It turns out that the father-in-law is under the empress dowager." Pang Min's expression was a little humiliated and a little bit upset. After saying this, he stood aside with his mouth pursed and did not speak.

The expressions on Yang and An's faces were very arrogant, and they snorted coldly as if to say that this matter has nothing to do with you.

Seeing that the two seemed to be deadlocked together, the servant coughed lightly, "Please, Eunuch."

Yang and An flicked their sleeves and left.

The servant escorted him out of the gate, watched him walk unhurriedly towards the palace, and then came back to report.

Pang Min said with a gloomy face, "Don't wait, let's start."

Anyway, the princess has already been captured. This opportunity is really rare. Besides, even if there is no such thing, it can be said that the Pang family is in a state of distress because of what happened to Grand Master Pang. Did not run, the end result is the same.

Yang and An turned around an intersection, but stopped again. He felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously turned his head to look inside the Grand Master's Mansion.

It's not right from anywhere today, it's true that what he has to do is to help Zhan Zhao look away, but who are these people he transferred?

The old man at the gate, a boy in his twenties, and an old nanny, where are the people from the Grand Master's Mansion?

Finally, there is a new son of Pang Taishi.

None of Grand Master Pang's masters and staff had seen him.

Of course, he played the role of a powerful eunuch who came to beat the autumn wind, but after learning that he was from the palace, shouldn't these people come to test him?

At least he came from the palace. Anyone who dares to come to the door at this time is a bold person. However, the courage in the palace also has a hidden meaning, that is, the information is reliable. Only those with reliable information dare to do what others dare not. Things to do.

But no one came to test him today, no...Yang and An shook their heads, the last Mr. Pang came to test him.

When Grand Master Pang was not around, this seemingly submissive young man with a nerdy image could be the master in the Grand Master's Mansion...Yang He'an remembered the suspiciously familiar feeling that had inexplicably arisen when he first saw him, and immediately turned around. Looking around, looking around for no one, he also turned over and jumped into the Grand Master's Mansion.

At this time, Zhan Zhao has already found Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang was in Taishi Pang's study.

But the harvest is not too much.

Important letters and other things have been searched by Pang Min for a round, and what is left are banknotes and other property that are useless to Pang Min.

After all, for a person who has already made up his mind to die and plans to use the entire Grand Master's Mansion to be buried with him, a bank note is probably not as good as a piece of straw.

So when Zhan Zhao found Bai Yutang, Bai Yutang was beating on Taishi Pang's study.It was really knocked inch by inch from the wall to the bottom of the table, for fear of revealing some hidden room or other places where things could be hidden.

But even if he was concentrating on finding something, Bai Yutang still paid attention to observing the surroundings, so when he heard movement outside, his first move was to hide behind the hollowed-out carved door in the compartment, and gently drew the knife Come out, ready to give this person a fatal blow at any time.

It's just that after this person came in... it didn't seem right.

No matter how cautious Bai Yutang was, he had already searched Taishi Pang's study for almost an hour. Although he didn't find any criminal evidence at the beginning, he found a silver note of no less than 10 taels, as well as a paperweight made of pure gold, made of coral The decorations made, the tiger descending the mountain carved out of a whole piece of jade, there are countless such precious objects, so although they didn't find anything, Bai Yutang must be in this study.

So after such a whole process, the study room was turned into a bit of a mess.

But after the man came in, he walked lightly, and seemed to stop there to look around. Bai Yutang couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and even calculated where he would not be fatal. taboo.

But then a voice surprised him and almost dropped the knife.

"Bai Yutang!"

It was the sound of Zhan Zhao gnashing his teeth.

Bai Yutang quickly came out from behind the door, looked at Zhan Zhao and said in surprise, "You're here too?"

Zhan Zhao glanced at him, and said, "Master Bao has requested an order to search the Grand Master's residence, you go back with me."

Bai Yutang was still a little reluctant, Zhan Zhao said again: "I think the decree has already been obtained, I have already ordered people, and I will wait on the two streets outside, come here as soon as I see Master Bao, the two of us go If you go around in front, it's justified."

Only then did Bai Yutang nod his head, and the two of them left the study. Bai Yutang sighed softly, "This Grand Master Pang... Really, corruption and perverting the law must be indispensable."

It's just that when the two came out, Zhan Zhao hesitated and pulled Bai Yutang back, "Wait, don't you think something's wrong?"

Bai Yutang pondered for a moment, then his face darkened.

"It was too quiet. I stayed in the study for almost an hour, and no one came in."

Zhan Zhao frowned, "There are only two teams of guards on this road, and they can be easily avoided, and... I always feel that they are absent-minded."

The two of them were wondering whether it was because of the absence of the grand master, or because of some accident—of course, both of them felt that the first reason was a bit ridiculous, and Yang and An also touched it.

When Yang and An saw Zhan Zhao, they were shocked—they almost went mad with fright, their faces were pale, and even their lips turned blue-purple.

The whole person seemed to be on the verge of fainting.

Zhan Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Director Yang!"

"It's not good! Princess—" he bit his lip firmly, before he had the strength to say the next thing, "I'm afraid the princess was captured by Pang Min!"

"What!" The two exclaimed for a while, and Yang and An only felt that the hand supporting them seemed to snap their arms off.

Seeing Zhan Zhao, Yang and An finally understood how they got the eerie sense of familiarity when they saw Pang Min for the first time.

"Pang Min smells like a princess's incense." Yang Hean frowned tightly, "The smell is very mild, but it can't escape my nose." He glanced at Zhan Zhao again, "It's not as strong as yours, The princess must have had contact with him, and... just now he was too normal!"

"Then what are you waiting for!" Bai Yutang shouted, "I caught Pang Min and went to find the princess!"

The curvature on Zhan Zhao's face seemed to be a little sharper than before. He stared at Yang and An, and asked, "Where is Pang Min?"

Yang and An pointed in the direction, but as soon as they pointed there, they saw thick smoke billowing into the sky in the backyard.

But after three or five breaths, flames burst out from the smoke, and the fire was about to rise.

Zhan Zhao, Yang and An exchanged glances, and they rushed to Bai Yutang together and said, "Go to Kaifeng mansion! Go to the palace! Find someone to put out the fire! Let me tell you that the princess is probably also inside, so you can find as many people as you can!"

The two rushed there together. Although the speed of their feet did not decrease, they still communicated non-stop.

"The two of us have to look for it separately, in case—" Zhan Zhao didn't say what he said later, "It's better to be sure."

Yang and An hummed, "I'll go find Pang Min!"

As soon as the voice fell, a guard in front spotted them and shouted: "A thief broke in!"

"Did you set the fire on!"

It's just that no matter whether it's Zhan Zhao or Yang He'an, the two of them didn't stop. Yang and An even yelled "Get out of the way". Then fell down.

Yang and An glanced at Zhan Zhao, and their feet moved faster, "This time I can really rest assured of you."

After speaking, he suddenly sped up a little bit, jumped over a few courtyard walls, and went in the direction where Pang Min left just now.

Zhan Zhao continued to go to the small building that was on fire.

This small building is being built in the garden. One side is adjacent to the water. It must be used for viewing the scenery. The repair is extremely exquisite. The top floor is basically a hollow structure. Except for a few large round wooden pillars, it is a hollow carved window. , with tulle as curtains, it is very artistic.

It's just that now the thick smoke is billowing, hot air mixed with black and gray is constantly surging up, the beautifully colored tulle has turned gray twice, billowing in the hot air, it feels like a dying struggle.

Zhan Zhao soon saw the small building. There were three or four women holding buckets trying to put out the fire, but the fire was so intense that even if they scooped water directly from the water's edge, it would be too late.

"How could it fall so fast?" Zhan Zhao heard a woman staring at the small building with dumbfounded eyes, "Master's favorite place, when he comes back, the whole house might suffer."

When Zhan Zhao heard "favorite place", for some reason, his heart suddenly twitched.

It has only been half a moment since he saw the fire approaching, the fire is so fierce... the flames have engulfed all sides, and he can't even see the door clearly.

Unless someone set it on fire... But this building was burned... and it is the Taishi's favorite place. Could it be his evidence of guilt?

This thought flashed through Zhan Zhao's mind quickly, he had already arrived in front of the small building, and the women didn't say much when they saw him, they just thought he was here to put out the fire, after all, the Grand Master's Mansion is next to the palace Come on, it's almost time to see the thick smoke coming.

Zhan Zhao took a glance, and saw that there was a corridor connected to one side of the building, and it was already on fire, but he could already hear noisy voices not far away, which sounded like handymen rushing over to put out the fire.Zhan Zhao heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and was about to leave when suddenly there was a cough that was almost inaudible and tasted like a hallucination, reaching his ears.

Princess!

Zhan Zhao turned around in a hurry, but no matter how good his ears were, he couldn't hear the crackling firewood and the voices of people behind him.

For a moment, Zhan Zhao felt his whole body was stiff, sweating all over his body, so nervous that he couldn't even hear the people around him saying hello, and the only thing in his ears was his own heartbeat.

And that cough just now.

Zhan Zhao pursed his lips, he couldn't take any chances.

He flew up, rushed into the lake water like an arrow from a string, soaked his whole body, and plunged into the fire without looking back.

From the moment the wooden barrel was kicked over and the fire started, Zhao Bijia felt that her chest was so stuffy that she could hardly breathe.

No one came to rescue her.

Not afraid, not afraid, she comforted herself, she silently recited the science popularization she had heard in some corner in her previous life, and now she is bored because of the vacuum effect of the fire.

The flames are all going up, and the smoke is also going up. The floor under her feet is solid when chopped. She is on the first floor, so she will not be choked to death by the smoke. She has a long time to escape, as long as... as long as I can untie this rope.

But after biting it for a long time, the hemp rope didn't break at all. Zhao Bijia didn't know what happened, and tears poured down her eyes.

It tastes salty, not as sweet as Zhan Zhao said.

"You liar!" Zhao Bijia felt that her vision was a little blurred, and she didn't know whether it was because of tears, or because of the smoke from staying in the fire for a long time.

Zhao Bijia gave a wry smile, wondering if he was burned to death... would the Holy Gu still work?Or died with her?

There was already a crackling sound above his head. Zhao Bijia looked up and saw that the flames had already jumped up to the ceiling. Looking around, there were flames all around. Whether it was doors, windows or beautiful carvings, there was nothing left under the erosion of the fire. .

The only thing she could still see was the bow and arrow facing her. Zhao Bijia didn’t feel scared at this time. She looked at the bow and arrow and smiled wryly. She couldn’t help coughing in a low voice because of the smoke. I really hope what Pang Min said It's true, shoot this arrow out quickly...don't make her feel so uncomfortable.

But Pang Min must have never tried this thing... Zhao Bijia watched helplessly as the bows that had already been set up were burned one by one and fell off one by one.

A bow made of wood!The madman!It didn't even blow out the organs, but the bow turned to ashes first.

Zhao Bijia gave a wry smile, seeing the flames getting closer and closer to her, finally felt a trace of despair in her heart.

At this moment, she heard a loud noise from somewhere.

Maybe the building is about to collapse... Zhao Bijia didn't even dare to open her eyes, because if she opened her eyes, she wouldn't even be able to imagine, and would die in despair.

"Princess!"

Zhao Bijia hadn't had time to distinguish whether it was a fantasy or a hallucination before she died, she was already hugged tightly in her arms including the chair.

"Zhan Zhao!" Zhao Bijia opened his eyes in disbelief, who is it if it's not Zhan Zhao?It was just this sudden inhalation, and she coughed violently again.

"Shut up, I'll get you out!" Zhan Zhao's hair was dripping wet, his clothes were also torn, and his face was also covered with black ash.

But Zhao Bijia felt that Zhan Zhao had never looked so good-looking.

Zhan Zhao squatted down, drew out his long sword, and slashed at the rope tied to Zhao Bijia's feet.

It's just that this rope... I don't know what it was made of, but it only broke a little after being cut.

Zhan Zhao's brows were tightly furrowed, and he stretched out his hand to pinch the rope, his voice was full of anger, "It's mixed with wire."

"It's all right." Zhao Bijia said while sniffling. The moment she saw Zhan Zhao, she suddenly didn't feel nervous at all, and she was even able to offer advice.

"If the rope keeps cutting, can you try to cut off the chair? Pull out the wooden stick and my hands and feet will be free."

Zhan Zhao raised his head and smiled at her, his face covered with soot, his eyes were even brighter than the firelight that filled the room.

Zhan Zhao hummed, and stretched out his hand to hold the chair leg.Zhao Bijia saw his shoulders collapse in an instant, but within three to five breaths, she heard a thud, and the chair leg broke.

The two let out a sigh of relief at the same time, and Zhan Zhao went to break the other chair leg.

But after both chair legs were broken, a more serious problem suddenly appeared.

A chair with two legs cannot stand.

Zhao Bijia maintained this position for a long time, unable to stand at all, and her hands were still tied on the chair, and she fell into Zhan Zhao's arms at this moment. It is not appropriate to say that it is in the arms, after all, Zhan Zhao will be in the arms at this time. He was squatting, and Zhao Bijia's chin hit his shoulder.

The expression on Zhan Zhao's face was extremely annoyed, "The armrest should be cut off first."

For some reason, Zhao Bijia suddenly laughed, and in this posture, she wiped her tears and the ashes on her face on Zhan Zhao's shoulders, and said, "Just now my legs are weak, you help me up, I can hold on." live."

Zhan Zhao helped Zhao Bijia get up, but halfway through the movement, he suddenly heard a sound breaking through the air from behind, coming towards the two of them!

Zhan Zhao couldn't see clearly with his back facing him, but Zhao Bijia was facing him. This thing was clearly the arrow that Pang Min had just mentioned!

The only arrow that burns the mechanism before the bow is damaged!

Although Zhan Zhao couldn't see what was behind him, he could hear the voice, and it was a sharp weapon. He could also see the frightened expression on Zhao Bijia's face, it must be something extremely dangerous.

The only thing he could do under the crisis was to hug the princess and turn around a little, so that she was completely enveloped under him.

"No!"

Following Zhao Bijia's cry, the arrow pierced Zhan Zhao's lower back. Zhao Bijia only heard a muffled groan. Zhan Zhao seemed to be a little unsteady, and the arm holding her tensed for a while, but he still gritted his teeth and stood up. .

Zhao Bijia saw the place where the arrow entered the flesh, and a circle of dark color spread around at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it was still expanding.

The feeling of not being able to suck it up just now came back, and the tears that could not be controlled fell down drop by drop.

"It's okay." Zhan Zhao's voice was a little trembling, but he still stood there firmly, stretched out his hand and broke off the armrest that trapped Zhao Bijia's hands.

Blood was already dripping from behind him.

Zhao Bijia sniffed her nose fiercely, bit the tip of her tongue forcefully, and told herself that she couldn't cry any more at this time. Before Zhan Zhao could make a move, she quickly took off the ropes on her hands and feet.

Zhan Zhao looked at her and nodded, his eyes filled with relief, but a beam had already fallen not far away... Time is running out.

Zhan Zhao lowered his head, and said in a very soft voice, "There is one more thing for the princess to do."

Zhao Bijia nodded hurriedly.

Zhan Zhao said softly, "Pull out the arrow—"

Zhao Bijia took a step back in shock. Even though she had no experience, she knew that with the arrow pressed down, the blood would not come out. If she pulled it out... "It will bleed."

Zhan Zhao shook his head, "No, I have the internal force to move the muscles near the wound, so I won't bleed a lot. If there is an arrow stuck in my back, we won't be able to get out if we get stuck."

Zhao Bijia took a deep breath, looked up at Zhan Zhao, nodded, reached out and gently grabbed the arrow shaft.

For a moment, Zhan Zhao's eyes darkened, and even his figure shook a little.

Zhao Bijia looked up at him again, her gaze was extremely firm, Zhan Zhao smiled at her, nodded and said, "Don't panic, don't shake your hands."

Holding the arrow in both hands, Zhao Bijia nodded again and said, "Hold on to the pain." After she finished speaking, she leaned forward and sealed Zhan Zhao's lips with her own, exchanging a soot-smelling, choking one. kiss.

Zhan Zhao trembled twice, Zhao Bijia had already pulled out the arrow.

Blood gushed out, Zhao Bijia gritted his teeth, quickly slashed the arrow on his palm, and stretched out his hand to cover Zhan Zhao's wound.

Seeing the blood of the two mixed together without distinction, she felt a strange sense of satisfaction in her heart.

Zhan Zhao gritted his teeth and shook twice, reached out his hand slowly and firmly to hold Zhao Bijia's arm, exerted a little force, and said softly, "Okay, it's all right, you see the blood is no longer bleeding, let's go out now."

Zhao Bijia hummed, and was immediately embraced by Zhan Zhao. Zhan Zhao smiled at her, and stretched out his hand to cover her face, "Don't get dusted."

A lot of people had already gathered outside the small building. Watching the building collapse little by little, someone sighed and said, "Oh, it can't be saved."

In the distance, Yang and An rushed over with a cry of blood, and almost couldn't help but knelt down in front of the small building, "Princess! The princess is inside!"

The voice seemed to burst out directly from the chest, low but not to be ignored.

"What did you say!!!"

Behind Yang and An came the emperor's terrified voice, "Fire! Fire! If——I want you all to be buried with me!"

Yang He'an gritted his teeth and stood up, turned around and lowered his head, and said, "Guard Zhan may have already gone in." After speaking, he snatched the buckets from the people around him, poured himself all over his head and face, and wanted to rush into the building that had become a building of fire. place.

But with the sound of the barrel falling to the ground, there was a louder bang, and the building collapsed.
