My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 155 Immortal Tao
Tao Qiong wanted to fly to the nine heavens and the moon, and even to meet the so-called gods.

Although these words sounded ridiculous to Zhu Zhanhe, when Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi and others on the top of the city heard their ears, they all showed excitement, and they even wished they could board the hot air balloon.

This is not to blame Tao Qiong and Zhu Di for their ignorance, but because the ancients had limited cognition, and the theory of immortals has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Also think of ghosts and gods.

The flying sky in front of him was like this. Tao Qiong flew into the sky, and his first reaction was to look for the gods in the sky, and even cut off the cable at the risk.

Seeing the hot air balloon rising higher and higher, Zhu Zhanhe at the top of the city was terribly angry.

"Zhan He, Tao Qiong, can he really fly to the nine heavens?"

Zhu Di curiously asked Zhu Zhanhe at this time, if he could really fly to the nine heavens and become a god, then what kind of emperor would he be, and just build another hot air balloon to fly to the sky.

"Grandfather, don't be misled by Tao Qiong, he can't fly that high at all, and he will fall down soon."

Zhu Zhanhe wanted to say that ignorance kills people, and there is nothing in the sky except clouds!

As for the moon, if only a hot air balloon can reach the moon, then Tao Qiong might really become a fairy. Besides, there are stones on the moon, and there is no moon palace at all, let alone fairies!
However, people like Zhu Di couldn't explain the above at all. Even if he really said it, I'm afraid others wouldn't believe it, so Zhu Zhanhe didn't explain too much.

"Then where will he fall, should we send someone to follow?"

Zhu Gaochi also spoke at this time.

"Sure, I'll send Jin Yiwei to follow on a fast horse!"

Zhu Zhanhe bowed his hands and said goodbye to Zhu Di, and quickly stepped down from the top of the city to order people to follow Tao Qiongfei's direction to search.

Seeing Zhu Zhanhe rushing down the city, Zhu Di suddenly laughed.

Originally he lost the bet, although Zhu Di showed generosity, he was still a little depressed, but he didn't expect that his shrewd grandson didn't take advantage of it, and was tricked by Tao Qiong in the end.

On the other side of the city wall, the concubines and concubines in the palace witnessed this miracle of flying into the sky with their own eyes. Apart from admiring it, they also congratulated Han Wangfei one after another.

The son made such a big splash, Han Wangfei was so happy that she almost laughed like a flower, and she also greeted the concubines of Daoxi very politely.

Several concubines also took the opportunity to ask her about the voyage to the West, and by the way, said a few good words for their natal family, and the Queen of Han also dealt with it one by one.

As for the Crown Princess, although she was very jealous, she couldn't be too stingy under the watchful eyes of everyone, so she pretended to be happy and went forward to congratulate her, but the result was naturally another slap in the face.

After dealing with the people around her, Concubine Han asked Chang Sining affectionately: "How old is Miss Chang this year, and what's her name?"

Princess Han didn't express much when she saw Chang Sining just now, and she didn't talk to her alone, but now that Zhu Zhanhe won the bet, it also means that his marriage with Chang Sining has been settled, so Princess Han He began to ask about Chang Sining's situation.

"Qi Wangfei, the little girl is fifteen this year, and her name is Si Ning."

Chang Sining stepped forward and replied.

"Fifteen? Like Zhan He, you were born in those years of war. No wonder you are called Si Ning."

Princess Han nodded.

Fifteen years ago, it was the most intense time of Jing Nan's fight. Whether it was Zhu Di or Zhu Yunqi, both sides were in panic, so it was normal for Chang Sining to choose such a name.

As Princess Han said, she took off the jade bracelet on her wrist, then smiled and said again: "Come on, stretch out your hand!"

"Princess, I..."

Chang Sining wanted to decline, but Mrs. Chang next to her gave her a sharp wink. This is a gift from Princess Han as a mother-in-law to her daughter-in-law, and she must accept it no matter what.

Chang Sining understood, so she could only stretch out her hand shyly, allowing Princess Han to put the jade bracelet on her wrist.

"This pair of jade bracelets was a gift from the queen when I married the lord, and I will pass it on to you today. In the future, you and Zhanhe will support each other. If he does something wrong, you should remind him from time to time!"

Concubine Han's nose was sore at the end, and tears almost fell out. After all, his son is getting married, and I don't know if he will have a wife and forget his mother?

Zhu Zhanhe has indeed forgotten his old lady now, to be precise, he only has one thought in his mind now, and that is to find Tao Qiong, that bastard!
Speaking of it, Zhu Zhanhe was careless. He clearly knew that Tao Qiong would not hesitate to guard himself and steal himself in order to fly into the sky. From this point, it can be seen that this guy is definitely not an honest person who follows the rules.

It's a pity that Zhu Zhanhe was confused by Tao Qiong's honest appearance, and Tao Qiong also behaved extremely obediently in the previous half month, so Zhu Zhanhe never thought that he would act without authorization.

Following Zhu Zhanhe's order, Dongchang and Jin Yiwei chased after the hot air balloon in the direction it was flying away.

Fortunately, the north wind was blowing today, and the hot air balloon flew away to the south. Otherwise, if it went north, it might fall into the Yangtze River, and Tao Qiong would be waiting to feed the fish.

Today is just a test flight, Zhu Zhanhe remembers very clearly that there is not much fuel prepared on the hot air balloon, so Tao Qiong must not be able to fly far.

But even so, it is not easy to find Tao Qiong's trace, because after he ascends, it is difficult to see his position on the ground, and the wind direction in the sky will also change. So it's more difficult to pinpoint his eventual location.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanhe could only deploy a large number of people, using Jinyiwei's all-pervasive intelligence agency to closely monitor the vast area south of the capital.

Finally, on the afternoon of the second day, hundreds of miles south of the capital, some people reported that they saw a hot air balloon flying through the sky yesterday, and the hot air balloon was not far from the ground at that time, presumably it must have run out of fuel , is slowly falling.

The safety of hot air balloons is actually higher than many people imagined. Even if the fuel is exhausted, the hot air balloons will not fall all at once, but will descend slowly, so Tao Qiong's chance of surviving is still very high.

So Zhu Zhanhe rode out of the city, and personally led a team to find the whereabouts of the hot air balloon.

Finally, the crashed hot air balloon was found several miles south of the sighting location.

The location where the hot air balloon crashed was a forest on the edge of a cliff, and the airbag of the hot air balloon was very conspicuously hanging on the branch, so it was only possible for the people sent by Zhu Zhanhe to find it.

Zhu Zhanhe came to the cliff in person, then entered the woods and came under the hot air balloon, and soon found the hanging basket hanging in the bushes.

However, Tao Qiong was not in the hanging basket, but was thrown into the bushes under the tree. When Zhu Zhanhe followed the moaning sound to find him, he saw that Tao Qiong was covered in injuries and his right leg was twisted abnormally. , it looks like it should be broken.

Tao Qiong was still alive, and when he saw Zhu Zhanhe, there was a bit of embarrassment on his face, which meant that the injury was not too serious.

This made Zhu Zhanhe also sneer and said: "Isn't this Immortal Tao, why did he come down to earth so quickly?"
