This situation only lasted less than a stick of incense before the rope was disconnected directly. Then the huge hot air balloon flew farther and farther amidst the shock and panic of the city, and finally followed the slight southeast breeze.
, slowly heading northwest.
The Imperial Ban Nao had already galloped out in pursuit under the leadership of several captains.
At this time, unlike the panic everywhere in the city, Xuande Tower was surprisingly quiet. As people who had witnessed the whole process of the hot air balloon taking off, they felt a little bit confused... and the result was that most people
Still dumbfounded, they just looked at the black spots in the sky in the distance. Although a few people whispered, they did not dare to discuss it loudly.

Zhao Jiu looked at it for a long time, then suddenly stood up, held the ancient seal and left calmly.
Zhao Guan's family left in a hurry and suddenly. All the ministers could only get up and see them off in a hurry. The queen mothers had their own rituals and did not mention it. Even if Concubine Wu showed her ambitions, it would not be easy to catch up... Only Concubine Pan hurriedly chased after her.

At this time, he finally opened the ancient seal in his hand for the third time, and read the writing on it clearly for the third time.
The four big characters are simple and outstanding in shape, but they do not hinder Zhao Jiu from being able to easily understand them after living in this world for seven years - Yuan Zuo is long.
That's right, the jade seal says 'Yuan Zuo is long', not 'De Zuo is long'. Concubine Wu's own eldest son, Zhao Yuanzuo, is so damn lucky! When he gets older, there will be a baby who jumps out of the Huaihe River to serve as his wife.
