Zhao Xian led the guards to search down the hillside, but only brought back a knife and a piece of blood-stained clothing.

As for Yu Jiu himself, he has disappeared.

Luo Qinghan just shot Yu Jiu's chest with that arrow. Even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured and shouldn't run far.

He divided the Imperial Guard into two parts, one part continued to search for Yu Jiu's traces in the mountains, in case he was hiding in the mountains, and the other part went to look around Dingshan to see if he could find Yu Jiu's whereabouts.

As for Yu Jiu's accomplices, they were dead and wounded.

In order to prevent the few remaining survivors from committing suicide, Zhao Xian ordered someone to knock them all unconscious.

Luo Qinghan walked to the carriage, the door was wide open, and the scene inside was unobstructed.

Inside the car were some dresses that Yu Jiu had replaced, as well as some bead hairpin jewelry, which were piled up messily on the ground.

Luo Qinghan remembered that these were all things that Xixi had worn.

It must be that Yu Jiu deliberately took off Xixi's clothes in order to hide her from the eyes and eyes, and dressed her up in a different way.

The thought of that guy dared to act on Xixi, the anger in Luo Qinghan's heart surged sharply.

When you catch him, you must chop off his salty pig hands and feed them to the dog!

The search couldn't be completed in a while, Luo Qinghan had to find Xixi, and couldn't stay here for a long time.

He decided to go first.

However, when they walked down the mountain road, they unexpectedly found that the mountain was on fire!

At this time, it was autumn, and the grass and trees in the mountains were dry, and it was burning at one point.

The fire started to spread upward from the foot of the mountain, the flames kept jumping, and the billowing smoke rushed to the sky,

Seeing this, Luo Qinghan's heart sank immediately.

They didn't have time to think about it, they galloped down the mountain on horseback, hoping to rush out to the mountain before the fire was too big.

The original entrance and exit at the foot of the mountain was guarded by two guards to prevent accidents.

But when they rushed near the foot of the mountain, they found that the two imperial guards were dead, their bodies were lying on the ground, surrounded by fire, and their bodies had been burnt beyond recognition.

Luo Qinghan rode on horseback.

He looked around while reassuring the horse under him, which was restless from the heat.

He soon discovered that there were three people standing three feet away.

The person in the middle is Yu Jiu.

At this time, Yu Jiu's face was pale, the arrow stuck in his chest had been pulled out, and the blood that flowed out stained the front of his clothes, making his androgynous face even more bewitching.

He was supported by two people and looked very weak.

The other two accomplices also held a flaming torch in the other hand.

Obviously, the two of them set the fire that came to Dingshan.

Yu Jiu knew that the emperor was not a simple person, so he planned for the worst in advance——

If the emperor is not fooled, and in turn suppresses them.

Then the only thing Yu Jiu can do is to set fire to the mountain and burn the emperor's group to death in the mountain!

So Yu Jiu deliberately led people to the middle of the mountain, so that it would be more convenient to start a fire.

Before he went up the mountain, he had arranged for two accomplices to hide under the mountain and prepared a large amount of kerosene. If the situation was not right, they would set the mountain on fire.

At this time, all the entrances and exits under the mountain were blocked by flames.

The emperor and the janitors he brought could only be trapped in the mountains.

Yu Jiu raised his head and saw Luo Qinghan with a gloomy face across the flaming flames, and couldn't help showing a happy smile.

But because the wound is too painful, coupled with too much blood loss.

This caused his smile to look a little distorted.

Luo Qinghan took the bow and arrow from the guard next to him, pulled the bow and arrow quickly, and aimed the arrow at Yu Jiu.

When Yu Jiu saw this, the smile on his face immediately froze.

He didn't dare to pretend any more, and quickly let the two accomplices help him to the right.

There was a pile of rocks over there, which just blocked Luo Qinghan's sight.

Line of sight is blocked and arrows can no longer be shot.

Luo Qinghan could only put down the bow and arrow.

Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, the guards and horses were roasted by the high temperature and felt extremely uncomfortable.

Zhao Xian gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, you will lead someone to clear the way at the end. You are right behind us. Even if we risk our lives, we will definitely send you out!"

In this case, you are responsible for opening the way, and nine times out of ten you will have to take your life.

Zhao Xian said that he was obviously ready to die.

Luo Qinghan was about to speak when he noticed a large group of people approaching.

He thought it was the reinforcements called by Yu Jiu, and when he was about to take Zhao Xian and others back to the mountain, he saw that the group of people were wearing official uniforms!

Among them is the old acquaintance Mei Guangtao!

Luo Qinghan immediately reacted, this is their reinforcements!

Mei Guangtao, Wen Jiucheng, and Pei Qianhu galloped on horseback, with more than 1,000 government soldiers behind them.

When they saw that Ladingshan was actually on fire, and the emperor and the Guards were trapped in the fire, they immediately launched a vigorous firefighting and rescue work!

Fortunately, there are farms and ponds nearby.

They bought quilts from farmers, soaked them, wrapped them around them, and rushed into the fire to save people.

When they rescued everyone, they could use soil, sand, and other objects to put out the fire.

When the farmers who lived nearby learned of the fire, they all came to help put out the fire spontaneously.

After all, they lived near here, and if the fire could not be controlled and burned their houses and fields, their losses would be great.

No matter how big the fire is, it can't hold back the strength of the people.

More than 2,000 people worked together to put out the fire until midnight, when the fire was finally put out.

Everyone was exhausted.

Luo Qinghan learned from Mei Guangtao's mouth that the imperial concubine was recovering in Jingzhao Mansion. He was pleasantly surprised. He didn't have time to rest, so he got on his horse and went straight to Jingzhao Mansion.

When others see this, how dare they delay? They mounted their horses and followed closely behind the emperor.

A large group of people in Wuyangyang rushed to the gate of Shengjing City.

The gates of the city have long been closed, and it stands to reason that they are not allowed to open before dawn.

But His Majesty the Emperor is standing outside the door. Who dares to keep him outside when he is tired of living? !

The soldiers guarding the gate did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly opened the gate.

Luo Qinghan rode a horse and rushed into the city first.

Others followed.

On the originally quiet street, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves. Many people who were sleeping were awakened by the sound. They pushed open the doors and windows and looked out, wondering what happened?

However, they only saw a large group of people rushing past, and there was nothing else.

It's amazing!

Luo Qinghan rushed to Jingzhao Mansion at the fastest speed.

He rolled over and dismounted and strode toward the backyard.

When he got to the backyard, he remembered that he didn't ask which room Xixi lived in?

Suddenly a voice came from behind.

"Come with us, we know where Xixi is."
