The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 196 - 96: Journey to Yu Prefecture (17) Bai Mowan’s Arrival
Chapter 196: Chapter 96: Journey to Yu Prefecture (17) Bai Mowan’s Arrival
Inside the temple.
Ye Qichi did not dare to delay for even a moment.
She didn’t know how soon the outsiders would set fire, she could only do her best to teach them self-rescue first!
Xiao Jinxing will definitely come; it’s just a matter of time.
She spoke loudly, "There is a well in the front hall, everyone rush to fetch several buckets of water. All of you, take off all your clothes, soak them in water to keep them wet. Once fire breaks out, don’t panic and run around. This place is not big, and chaos will lead to the danger of people trampling each other! Everyone stay on your spot and cover your nose and mouth with the wet clothes! Hurry up!"
Having said that.
Ye Qichi then loudly ordered the soldiers, "You fetch a bucket of water for the people in the backyard, let them do as I just instructed."
"Yes." The soldier hurriedly went in.
Ye Qichi suddenly stopped him, "After they cover their noses and mouths with clothes, let them all come out; they are not infected and have more labor power. When the fire breaks out, they can help extinguish it!"
"Okay." The soldier nodded and quickly entered the backyard.
Another soldier was also busy, maintaining order, instructing everyone to remove their coats, and queuing up to wet their coats one by one.
The people inside were enduring, but fortunately, they were united, and no one suddenly rioted.
Actually, this moment is critical. At this time and place, everyone is on edge. Once one person collapses, everyone else will collapse.
If they collapse, all efforts will be wasted!
Ye Qichi could only hope that Xiao Jinxing would come quickly!
To be precise, hoping that the Bai Family Army would come quickly!
Inside the temple, everything was orderly.
Outside the temple, Chen Hezhi lead a group of soldiers, watching the temple coldly in front of him.
The word had been spread.
How come no one is coming out?!
Theoretically, everyone should be panicking by now.
He now needed to create bigger conflicts, then leave some survivors to testify against the crimes of Prince Chen.
But now, it was clearly not meeting his expectations!
His expression darkened, he gave a signals to his adjutant.
The adjutant understood him and hastily shouted, "Prince Chen orders, Yuzhou City is plagued with disease and its people suffering greatly! Those infected with plague are extremely wicked! All will be burned to death! Archers, prepare!"
The quiet night, the voice echoed through the air.
It was impossible that they couldn’t hear it inside.
Yet, the tightly closed doors still showed no sign of movement.
Not at all as Chen Hezhi expected; an order is given, and it should have triggered huge turmoil, he even deployed hundreds of troops here to suppress it in the most ruthless manner!
Like that, he waited quite a while.
Chen Hezhi’s expression became uglier and uglier.
Chen Zihuan reminded him at his side, "Father, I think we can take action now!"
Chen Hezhi glanced at his son.
"Whether they come out or not doesn’t really matter, as long as they heard it was an order from Prince Chen. When it’s almost done burning, we just need to rescue a few people to testify." Chen Zihuan carefully whispered into Chen Hezhi’s ear, "Prince Chu specifically instructed that there must be no mistakes. Delaying longer adds more uncertainties, and if the Bai Family Army really breaks into Yuzhou City, then we truly can’t act."
Chen Hezhi nodded, not daring to delay any longer. freeweɓnøvel.com
Not having found Prince Chen, King Chu was already very dissatisfied with him, if he messes up again this time, King Chu would definitely not spare him!
Just as he was about to give the order.
"My lord!" A group of cavalry arrived quickly.
Chen Hezhi’s expression darkened.
"Stop him!" Chen Hezhi ordered.
Absolutely cannot let Pang Nan affect his plans.
Pang Nan, leading twenty cavalry, was stopped by Chen Hezhi’s men.
"My lord!" Pang Nan called out to him.
Chen Hezhi pretended not to hear.
"Sir Pang, my lord is currently handling important matters, please do not disturb him! I advise you to go back immediately!" one of Chen Hezhi’s confidants coldly threatened.
Pang Nan glanced at the confidant.
Suddenly, he whipped his horse and bypassed the confidant’s side.
"Pang Nan, you are defying superiors! Capture him!" the confidant shouted loudly.
A line of soldiers immediately went to stop him.
Pang Nan drew his sword, stabbing two soldiers to death.
The scene became somewhat chaotic.
Seeing this, Chen Hezhi naturally had an extremely ugly expression.
Just as he was about to order Pang Nan to be captured.
Pang Nan leaped from his horse, arriving in front of Chen Hezhi, and knelt down, "My lord, do not burn down the plague area!"
