The crown prince's favorite girl, she found another good match

Chapter 149 Mutation! ! 【Additional update】

A line of warm blood splashed on Zhao Yi's face. He turned his head to avoid it, closed his eyes slightly, and raised a bloody smile on his lips.

"This sword is a bit blunt."

He casually threw the sword away, and the people behind him quickly caught it, bowed to follow him and considered it: "It has not been sharpened for a long time, and it is not as sharp as His Highness's sword."

Zhao Yi sneered indifferently. His sword was the world-renowned Chi Xiao, so naturally it couldn't be compared to these ordinary fine weapons.

Wang Yiming next to him was shocked by this development. He also wanted to interrogate the person properly, and pressed the person in front of His Highness to have something to say, but His Highness wiped the person's neck without saying a word...

He quickly stepped forward and said with some anxiety: "Your Highness... I'm afraid it's hard for Your Majesty to explain this..."

Zhao Yi took the handkerchief, wiped the blood stains slowly, and threw it behind: "Now let us know that your Majesty is considerate of public opinion and has taken the initiative to order the prince to demolish the Taoist temple to build water conservancy projects to relieve the drought."

Wang Yiming paused and immediately said: "Send the order to spread this news. It must be spread in the streets and alleys, especially in the capital."

He was also a good person, and he quickly understood what Zhao Yi meant. The people of Zhao Yi were in full support. Since he had already gained such a reputation, the emperor couldn't get angry even if he wanted to.

Otherwise, wouldn't the emperor become a selfish and mediocre person who doesn't care about public opinion, even if there is a famine for thousands of miles and the people have no harvest, he still wants to refine the elixir of immortality for himself?
But this method only temporarily suppressed the emperor's anger. As for what he was thinking...

It is estimated that they will only be more wary of His Highness in the future. The two of them are bound to be in the same boat. Now the situation may be about to change drastically.

The little Taoist priests below were all trembling with fear when they saw Master Qiu being killed. They had grown up in Taoist temples and had never seen such a scene before. Some even became incontinent on the spot and could not stand.

The air was filled with an unpleasant smell, mixed with the smell of the elixirs in this Taoist temple, making it nauseating.

Soon the foundation of the Taoist temple was destroyed, the pillars on the sides fell straight down, and the magnificent building collapsed. From then on, this arrogant Huangtian Temple became a part of the dust of history.

But the collapse of this behemoth revealed something even more shocking inside.

It's a huge salt field!

It is astonishingly large. Just under the ruins, as the outer wrapping collapsed and came to light, there are huge wooden vessels. The large flat surface in the middle that seems to be used for drying medicinal materials should be used for drying coarse salt on weekdays.

It turned out that the salt factory they had been looking for for many days was here, so it made sense.

This is Huangtian Temple. No one would have thought that a place dedicated to refining elixirs for the royal family would be related to the previous dynasty. Moreover, this place is so solemn that ordinary people would not dare to search it carefully. Who would have thought that it would be so blatant?
Several adults couldn't help but talk about it. Zhao Yi said quietly: "Move these things out. These Taoist priests have interrogated them one by one. Let's open the ditch."

Wang Yiming responded and ordered people to go down to work, but secretly said in his heart, as expected of His Highness, it seems that he already knew the result.

-

It was already raining heavily. When Li Baojia and Zhao Minan came back from playing, Xiao Tao held an oil-paper umbrella for them. The rainwater hit the umbrella surface, making a crisp crackling sound.

She took her back to her house and said as she walked: "Sister Min'an, how about you stay here today? Come with me."

It just so happened that Zhao Yi would not be back today, otherwise he would not be happy to see Zhao Min.

Before Zhao Minan nodded, he looked ahead and was stunned. Li Baojia turned around and saw that a large number of people were rushing forward in the rain. They didn't even hold umbrellas. Many of them were carrying heavy baggage and looked in a hurry. The look of running away.

"What, what's the matter?"

Li Baojia felt uneasy for no reason. The servants next to her protected her from being squeezed by the crowd. Zhao Minan's eyes flashed with a trace of unnoticeable nervousness.

Xiaotao stopped a man who was carrying a bag in a hurry: "Excuse me, what happened? Why is everyone rushing over there?"

The man obviously didn't want to stop and say more, but hurriedly said: "Don't ask the girl, run away for your life, there is going to be a war soon, take the valuable things and run away."

"It will be too late when those people come in, remember to hurry up!"

He hurriedly pushed forward with the large number of people. Li Baojia just thought that this thing sounded so ridiculous. There was absolutely no such thing in his previous life!
How could this happen suddenly?
She couldn't tell whether it was true or false for a moment, so she turned to Zhao Min'an and said, "Go and collect your things first. Don't stay here. Go over there and have a look..."

Before she finished speaking, the city gate opened wide. The city was divided into two gates, the east and west. Going to the east gate meant heading north. They attacked from the west gate, so no wonder they all ran to the east.

A large black army wearing armor came over here, arresting everyone they encountered. If they resisted at the slightest moment, blood would be splashed on the spot. For a while, screams and screams pierced the sky, and the surroundings were in chaos.

There was no need to put away her things now. She pulled Zhao Minan and ran away, followed closely by the people behind her. Xiaotao and Luyi also followed her closely, fearing to leave her side.

The front was extremely crowded, and they relied on the guards in front to open the way, but they barely escaped the pursuers. Li Baojia didn't dare to stop at all, and she didn't open her umbrella. The rain was running down her fair face, and she looked quite embarrassed. .

Zhao Minan asked worriedly: "Baojia, are you okay? Why don't you stop for a while?"

Li Baojia didn't move much on weekdays, but this time he ran like crazy. His face turned pale and he looked like he was about to collapse.

They ran for who knows how far, and hundreds of people came towards them in front of them. When she saw the figure leading them, her eyes lit up: "Your Majesty!"

At this time, he had put on his armor cloak, his eyes were calm, and he was holding a sword in his hand. His eyes softened a little when he saw her, and he came over and said: "Baojia, go to the east gate first, run all the way, don't look back, now Something happened, and I'm afraid I won't be able to be by your side at any time."

He turned around and said, "You two, follow her and protect her."

The two soldiers obeyed the order and came over to stand behind her. Li Baojia quickly shook his head: "No, I don't need to. You are more dangerous over there..."

She still doesn’t know what the situation is at the West City Gate, but judging from the people she just saw, there are definitely many, many more people than Zhou Jinan. If he dispatches people to protect her at this time, wouldn’t it make it difficult for him? More difficult?
Zhou Jinan took a thin cloak from behind and put it on her, and wiped the water on her face with his hands: "If I can't guarantee your safety, I won't be able to rest assured even if I die. If you don't want me to be distracted and miss you, , just stop talking."

He looked at her reluctantly, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go quickly."

He turned around and rushed into the layers of rain with his men: "Come on!!!"
