Chapter 501: Starting from 1, Even if It’s Wrong
Chapter 501: Starting from 1, Even if It’s Wrong
Prime Minister Qin would never have thought that Ji Chuhe had never thought of taking action when the Third Prince was taking the lantern.
After all, this request was made by the Duke's Mansion.
Prime Minister Qin always thought that they would stop the Third Prince from getting the lantern.
"The Third Prince has obtained the lantern!"
"so fast!"
The people around him spontaneously applauded the Third Prince's skills.
The third prince looked down at the two women below, and finally his gaze fixed on Qin Yumo.
After what happened today, his marriage with Rong Qingqing will never change.
However, after he marries Qin Yumo, he will try his best to make it up to her and will never let Qin Yumo suffer any grievances.
Such a woman deserves her good love.
Suddenly, a burst of firecrackers sounded.
The crackling sound startled everyone.
It turned out that it was set off by people from the Duke's Mansion, and it seemed that they were also celebrating the fact that the Third Prince had obtained the lantern.
A trace of contempt flashed across Qin Xiang's eyes.
The Rongguo Mansion is so hypocritical!
They were happier than anyone else that the Third Prince could come and pick up the lantern!
Suddenly, some sparks exploded onto the bamboo tower and the lanterns were quickly ignited by the sparks. After the lanterns were burned, they fell down one by one with fire.
Rong Qingqing and Qin Yumo stood together, closest to the bamboo tower.
The lantern fell down, just separating the two of them from the crowd. A circle of fire formed in front of the two of them, and it was very dangerous for people outside to jump in to save them.
I can only wait until the lanterns are burned out and then look for another opportunity.
"Third Prince, the fire is getting higher and higher, come down quickly!" Xiao Yan'an shouted.
"Hurry, go get some water to put out the fire!" Rong Yuchuan also shouted loudly.
In an instant, the scene became chaotic.
Ji Chuhe looked at the third prince on the tower, only to see him falling quickly toward the area that had not been burned by the fire.
Suddenly, the bamboo tower began to tilt!
The direction of the fall was exactly the direction of Rong Qingqing and Qin Yumo.
"Something's wrong!" Qin Xiang couldn't help but shout as he looked at the fire in front of him.
Just a few lanterns and some paper pasted on a bamboo frame, how could they possibly produce such a huge flame!
And that bamboo tower, why does it burn so quickly when it encounters fire?
"Third Prince, save me!" Rong Qingqing shouted deliberately.
It looked like the flames were about to engulf the two weak women, and behind them, the bamboo tower was about to tilt and fall down.
"Hurry! Go save them!" Qin Xiang shouted suddenly.
"Quick, retreat, don't get close to the fire, the water will be here soon!" Rong Yuchuan shouted, and someone came out from nowhere and grabbed all of Qin Xiang's men.
Prime Minister Qin had already seen through their plan, and rushed forward regardless of everything. But after taking two steps, someone hugged his waist tightly.
"Prime Minister Qin, please don't do anything stupid!" Xiao Yan'an shouted, "You are old and can't take care of yourself. Leave the firefighting to us young people!"
Prime Minister Qin was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
This Xiao Yanan!
It would have been fine if they just stopped him from rescuing people, but they actually cursed him secretly for being old and useless!
He immediately gave Qin Yumo a wink.
Qin Yumo immediately understood, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She was about to rush out of the fire when Rong Qingqing suddenly grabbed her.
"Miss Qin, be careful!"
A burnt bamboo pole fell from above and almost hit Qin Yumo.
Everyone saw clearly that it was Rong Qingqing who saved Qin Yumo.
In order to save Qin Yumo, she pulled Qin Yumo towards the direction where the fire was less severe!
What was unexpected was that several bamboo poles suddenly fell from above Qin Yumo!
"Yumo!" The third prince rushed towards Qin Yumo regardless of everything.
At the same time, burning lanterns and bamboo poles fell down above Rong Qingqing's head!
At this time, the third prince had already hugged Qin Yumo tightly.
"Qingqing!" Rong Yuchuan also rushed into the fire and rescued Rong Qingqing.
Some of the fallen lanterns had burned into ashes, leaving space for the four people to escape.
The four of them retreated to a safe place at the same time.
Not long after, the bamboo tower collapsed with a loud bang. People fetching water rushed up and immediately put out the fire.
After the fire was put out, everyone discovered it.
Rong Qingqing was hugged by her father and seemed to be very frightened.
Qin Yumo was in the arms of the third prince.
Everyone saw clearly just now that the Third Prince chose to save Qin Yumo at the critical moment of life and death!
Now, everyone can be sure who the Third Prince likes!
Qin Xiang closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Ji Chuhe and the people of the Rong family are so brave!
If the Third Prince gets hurt, can they afford it? !
Now, who cares what caused the fire? What everyone cares about is that the third prince just saved Qin Yumo in a dangerous moment!
Ironically, the third prince was still holding the hibiscus lantern in his hand.
All the lanterns on the bamboo tower were burned, only this one was intact.
The third prince took a look at the lantern in his hand and couldn't help but chuckle.
Is this another ruse?
The contest between Prime Minister Qin and the Rongguo Mansion?
It was so dangerous just now. What if Rong Qingqing and Qin Yumo got burned?
With his skills, escaping the fire was nothing.
But, these two are weak women!
Rong Qingqing might still have some skills, but Qin Yumo is powerless!
The Third Prince now felt a rage that made him want to kill someone, but he also felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
"Third Prince, I think the person you really wanted to give that lantern to was Miss Qin Yumo. Through what happened today, I finally understood that some feelings cannot be forced. What I envy most is mutual love that lasts until death. I seem to have seen it in the two of you. I sincerely wish you all the best." Rong Qingqing's words came from the heart.
"No, no, Miss Rong, please don't misunderstand..." Qin Yumo didn't want to explain.
The third prince grabbed her and put the lantern into Qin Yumo's hands.
"Yumo, don't be afraid, this lantern is for you."
"Third Prince!" Qin Yumo was anxious, but it was too late to reverse what had happened. Nothing she said would help.
"Everyone, please disperse. Fortunately, there were no casualties today. I will have people clean up this place. Prime Minister Qin, although what happened today was an accident, I will personally go to the emperor to apologize tomorrow morning."
Rong Yuchuan's words also blocked Qin Xiang's words.
"Yumo, come back with me." Prime Minister Qin called out to Qin Yumo.
"Yes, grandpa." Qin Yumo immediately followed Qin Xiang and left.
"Goodbye, Prime Minister Qin!" Xiao Yan'an called out politely.
When the third prince saw his beloved woman leave, he also turned and left, without even saying goodbye to Rong Yuchuan.
Somewhat ungraceful.
Rong Yuchuan bowed to the onlookers around him and said, "I'm really sorry for scaring everyone today."
