Chapter 11 Saving Lives
Miaozhi, who was bored, couldn't stay in the garden, so she led Ning'er and Xiangyan to the garden to breathe.
It was a small summer, and the air at this time was filled with faint heat, Miao Zhi took off her embroidered shoes and thin socks, sat on the edge of the pond and stretched her white and tender little feet into the cool water.
All kinds of carp in the pond gathered around her feet and itched, causing Miao Zhi to "giggle" out laughing.
Xiang Yan behind her had just picked a blooming impatiens, and flew onto a tree in the garden to take advantage of the coolness. As far as the eye could see, she could see that a spot not far behind the garden seemed to be on fire, and wisps of green smoke scattered in all directions.
"There's a fire there." As soon as Xiang Yan finished speaking, Miao Zhi stretched her feet out of the water with a spirit.
Following the direction pointed by Xiang Yan, I saw some smoke in the air, and I faintly smelled some smoke.
Miao Zhi thought for a few seconds, as if she had thought of something.
"It's not good, it's the Shallow Mercy Pavilion, the Shallow Mercy Pavilion is on fire, and there are still people in there."
Miao Zhi didn't even wear thin socks, so she dragged her embroidered shoes and ran in the direction of the shallow mercy pavilion in a panic.
Xiang Yan and Ning Er hurriedly followed, and also ran behind Miao Zhi.
The closer you get to the Shallow Pavilion, the heavier the smell of smoke. Miao Zhi arrived at the door and pushed the rusty iron door open.
The fire in the yard was already a little bigger, and the fire spread along the dry weeds and branches, and was about to climb up the doors and windows of the small building.
Xiang Yan and Ning Er also arrived in the courtyard at this time, and Miao Zhi hurriedly instructed them to find a wet quilt to come over.
Miao Zhi faintly felt that the woman in the shallow mercy pavilion had an inextricable relationship with herself. The fire is getting stronger and stronger, which really makes people look at it in their eyes and be anxious in their hearts.
After a while, Xiang Yan returned to the courtyard with a wet quilt. Miao Zhi wrapped the two of them in a quilt, and let Xiang Yan quickly bring herself in with light skills.
The smoke-filled room was so choking that people couldn't open their eyes, but fortunately there was no clutter outside, there were not many flammable things, and the fire was not very big. Miao Zhi ran to the woman in a panic and beckoned Xiang Yan to carry someone out with the cylinder with her.
The woman kept whimpering, as if she wanted to say something, but her densely sewn mouth couldn't open at all.
Caring about anything else, the two of them protected the woman in the middle of the quilt, and used all their strength to carry the jar and move out little by little.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, the water in the quilt was about to evaporate and dry, and Miao Zhi felt that the quilt on her back was already burning, and the thick heat was seeping in.
It took a lot of effort for the two of them to carry the tank to the gate of the courtyard, and Miao Zhi quickly removed the already burning quilt on her body and let out a long breath.
The woman in the vat seemed to have fainted from the smoke. As soon as the two wanted to catch their breath, Ning'er trotted into the door with a bucket of water.
"Miss, the water is coming." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the woman in the tank, and he was so frightened that he threw the bucket out.
Miao Zhi hurriedly retracted the foot that was almost hit by the bucket, "Ah, ghost! Ning'er hid behind Xiang Yan and couldn't stop shivering.
"Alright, what the hell, hurry up and help me carry her out." Miao Zhi frowned, because she didn't know where to hide the woman.
Xiang Yan seemed to see Miao Zhi's embarrassment, "Miss, let's hide her in a hidden place first, there are people coming and going in the house, and it is impossible to hide people's eyes and ears, not to mention that it will not work at all to carry her back to the Mandarin Pavilion." When it gets dark, I'll go to the dart bureau and find some people to settle her out of the house. ”
Miao Zhi nodded after hearing this, and that was the only way.
As soon as the three of them hid the woman, the fire had already engulfed the shallow mercy pavilion, and the noisy maid came to put out the fire at this time, presumably Ling Shuirong had informed her. Miao Zhi hid in the dark and watched the raging fire, and the doubts in her heart became even greater.
This is to kill people and destroy corpses, this Ling Shuirong is really thoughtful and vicious, she is becoming more and more curious about this mother.
In the wing room of the East Garden of the Bachelor's Mansion, a green-clothed maid knelt on the ground and trembled.
"Madam, Madame has to believe Xi Hong, yesterday the slave maid went into the house to check before setting light to the shallow mercy pavilion, and the woman was really in the house at that time." As she spoke, the woman in green knelt down and grabbed the corner of Ling Shuirong's skirt.
Ling Shuirong on the main seat had a dark face, and her eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames when she looked at the woman.
opened the hand that was pulling the corner of her skirt fiercely, and said angrily: "What about the people at this moment, what about the corpse, as soon as the fire was extinguished yesterday, Mother Jiang went to the house to see it, not to mention the corpse, even the cylinder is gone." ”
"Slave, slave really doesn't know. Xi Hong is dedicated to following Madame, and will never be against Madame. ”
Ling Shuirong's anger was even more obvious, she stretched out her hand and threw the teacup, and the fragments of tea splashed everywhere, and the maids outside the door were all avoided, afraid that the next one to suffer would be herself.
Xi Hong was silent for a while, so she could only sit on the ground and whimper.
Mother Jiang on the side leaned down and whispered a few words in Ling Shuirong's ear, then turned her face to Xi Hong and said, "Since this matter is not your fault, Madam will let you go for the time being." However, "
Mother Jiang dragged a long tail note and didn't say anything, and Xi Hong, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately reflected.
"The slave must be tight-lipped, this matter has nothing to do with Mrs. at all, it was all done by Xi Hong."
Mother Jiang nodded appreciatively and said, "You go down and do a good job." ”
One sentence made Xi Hongru amnesty, and hurriedly got up and bowed out of the room.
The woman was not burned to death, who rescued her? Could it be that Frost Poetry knows?
Ling Shuirong thought as she gritted her teeth even more.
"Nurse, how is this good?" Thinking about it, I couldn't help but panic, what if my mother ran out of medicine to eat?
"Princess, it's not what you think, the old slave doesn't think it will be Shuang Ningshi, it is estimated that it is someone else, now the house is still as calm as ever, and the master has not asked much about it."
Mother Jiang is a calm old man in the end, and she carefully analyzed it for Ling Shuirong.
"If it's really that frost poem, the princess doesn't have to worry too much, it's a big deal to get it to the surface, if she threatens you with Yi Concubine Niangniang, don't you also have a weight to make conditions with her?" As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows at Ling Shuirong.
Ling Shuirong's eyes lit up, and her worries immediately disappeared, yes, this Miao Zhi is a big weight, how can she always forget it, thinking about it, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
