Fang Zi'an did not return to the Yamen, he rushed to the Dongcheng Special Service Team in the middle of the Donghe River as soon as possible, where there was another set of heavy fire-fighting equipment for dragon king cars and ladder trucks. At the same time, he ordered people to immediately notify the three special service teams in the north and west of the city and the north section of the middle and north sections, and ordered them to rush to the palace in the south of the city with heavy fire extinguishing equipment as soon as possible.

After that, Fang Zi'an hurried to the South Section of the Central River to give orders, and finally arrived at the Nancheng Special Service. Although there was a lot of delay in this, and Qi Yue and the others were in a hurry, Fang Zi'an knew that if even the Ministry of Internal Affairs' latent fire team could not extinguish the fire, at least a few heavy fire extinguishing equipment would have to be used. It will take a long time for the special service teams of the north section of the west city and the north section of the middle city to arrive at the palace, at least they can assemble the special service teams of the south section of the south section of the middle and south cities into the palace in a short time, and they will have two sets of fire-fighting heavy equipment to enter the palace.

The dispatch of the special service team was not slow, and the livestock that Fang Zi'an had previously purchased to increase mobility came in handy. After a meal, the special service team of the southern section of the Central River arrived at the Nancheng special service team to join Fang Zi'an. Two special service teams of more than 30 people formed a large fire truck team of six or seven cars and galloped away in the direction of the palace.

There were a lot of people in the royal street, and they all poured out to look in the direction of the Phoenix Mountain Palace, but they did affect the speed of the convoy. Qi Yue led more than a dozen soldiers to open the way in front, mercilessly whipping the people who were blocking the road with leather whips to ensure the smooth flow of the fire truck fleet.

The palace gate of Donghua Gate was wide open, and the waiters waiting at the palace gate were already anxious like ants on a hot pot, and when they saw the arrival of the fire truck, they hurriedly trotted all the way to lead the way into the imperial garden on the northeast side of the imperial city. Cining Palace is located in the center of the Imperial Garden, which is built on the mountain.

Far away from the corridor of flowers and trees, Fang Zi'an had already seen the raging fire and the sky-high fire in front of him. Clearly, the fire was already burning. When the convoy turned through the woods and saw the blazing Cining Palace, Fang Zi'an gasped. The entire Cining Palace has actually burned into a sea of fire. The fireworks filled the sky, and the black smoke billowed into the sky, obscuring the bright moon in the sky. The air was scattered with the smell of burnt and burnt. Within nearly twenty steps to the left of Cining Palace, it was almost impossible to stand close.

Zhao Gou stood in the open space to the west with a large group of courtiers, and the raging fire forced them to leave far away. Everyone was helpless and could only watch. Only some members of the Ministry of Internal Affairs' submarine fire team and some chamberlains in the palace tried in vain to pour water into the fire with wooden barrels.

"Your Majesty, the firefighting team of the Defense Army has arrived." Yang Cunzhong, who received Qi Yue's report, reported loudly to Zhao Gouyu.

Zhao Gou's eyes were full of tears, staring at the raging fire and gritting his teeth: "Hurry up and call them to help, hurry, hurry!" ”

Fang Zi'an and the others had already been uninstructed, and began to set up the water dragon ladder, and chose a location to prepare quickly. After a short time of preparation, the two dragon king chariots, a total of six water dragons, began to shoot towards the fire across a distance of more than a dozen paces. Under the instantaneous suppression of the concentrated water dragon, the fire in the west side hall seemed to weaken all of a sudden. Seeing this, Zhao Gou and the ministers burned hope in their hearts.

Fang Zi'an rushed over, and Zhao Gou shouted loudly: "Fang Zi'an, quickly put out the fire, the Queen Mother is inside." Come on. ”

Fang Zi'an shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister needs assistance. ”

Zhao Gou said loudly: "What do you need?" Say it. ”

Fang Zi'an said loudly: "I need someone to replenish the water in the water wheel for me, I don't have enough people." The watermill requires a lot of water. ”

Zhao Gou said loudly: "Kuang Xun, let your people help carry water." ”

Kuang Xun is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Zhao Go's personal attendant. He hurriedly agreed and ordered in a loud voice. Soon, dozens of members of the Ministry of Internal Affairs' submarine fire team and chamberlains began to carry wooden barrels to draw water from the pool near the left.

"Can it be saved? The Queen Mother is still inside. Zhao Gou shouted at Fang Zi'an.

Fang Zi'an didn't dare to give Zhao Gou much hope, so he only said: "The minister did his best, this fire is too big." At present, the smoke and dust are billowing and the situation is not clear. The minister needs to know the structural diagram of Cining Palace. ”

Zhao said: "I know, I will draw it for you." ”

Zhao Gou squatted down randomly and drew a plan of Cining Palace on the ground with a tree branch. He goes in and out a lot on weekdays, and he does know everything clearly. Fang Zi'an squatted aside, listening to Zhao Gou explain while drawing. Several times, Zhao Gou coughed because he was too excited and said too quickly. But he still quickly drew a clear picture of the structure of your entire Cining Palace and the distribution of each hall.

The Cining Palace is a square structure, surrounded by a circle of side halls, and in the middle is the dormitory, which is also the residence of the Empress Dowager Wei. Seeing this structure, Fang Zi's peace of mind ignited hope.

Fang Zi'an thought quickly for a while, and said to Zhao Gou: "Your Majesty, according to this pattern, it is the surrounding side halls that are on fire now. The queen mother's bedroom in the middle is separated from the garden with more than 30 steps around the side hall, and the minister estimates that the high hall in the middle is likely not to have caught fire. It's just that because of the smoke and dust, we can't see clearly. If the main hall in the middle did not catch fire, the Queen Mother must be hiding inside. There is a good chance that they are still alive, in the main hall in the middle. ”

Zhao Gou hurriedly said: "Then you have to put out the fire quickly, even if you are alive, such a big fire, I am afraid it will not be able to support it." This fire is so hot dozens of paces away, and the Queen Mother and her old man are trapped in it, so wouldn't it be even more tormenting. ”

Fang Zi'an said: "The emperor is right, in fact, what he is most afraid of is not the scorching, but the spread of smoke and fire. Although they are dozens of steps apart, there is a corridor of flowers and trees in the middle, and it will still catch fire. But this fire is too big, the emperor, the minister thinks that it is impossible to completely extinguish it, the minister's idea is to break through one place, and then rush in to rescue the queen mother. As for this temple, the minister is not sure that it can be kept. ”

Zhao Gou said loudly: "What kind of palace?" If you can rescue the Queen Mother, it will be done. Rescue the Queen Mother, you have made a great contribution. Fang Zi'an, do what you want to do immediately, and don't need to ask for my consent. ”

Fang Zi'an nodded and said, "The minister obeys the order!" ”

The surrounding ministers listened to the conversation between Fang Zi'an and Zhao Gou, and most of them actually thought that the Queen Mother was no longer lucky. With such a big fire, are there still living people? They were a little surprised to hear Fang Zi'an say that the Queen Mother might still be alive.

Shi Hao stood there frowning, he heard the plan that Fang Zi'an said, and he was very worried. Fang Zi'an gave the emperor hope to implement this risky rescue plan, which put him in danger, not to mention, and he might even get into trouble. If he failed to rescue the empress, the emperor would definitely blame him. The best result is that Fang Zi'an really rescued the Queen Mother, which is a great thing.

Fang Zi'an turned around and rushed to the scene of the firefighting, and the suppressive power of the six water dragons was obviously not enough. The fire swept over from the left, and the extinguished fire was instantly rekindled. When the water of the water dragon falls up, it is evaporated, and it is a stalemate for a while. Fang Zi'an knew that this was due to the lack of suppressive power, and too much fire would lead to such a result. But at this moment, the Dongcheng special service team arrived. They were accompanied by Li Dalong, Lei Hu and others.

Fang Zi'an was overjoyed and quickly ordered to set up a water dragon. After three more water dragons, the suppression of the nine water dragons quickly opened a gap in the fire. Zhang Xu Kuan's position, the fire will not rekindle. That location is where the entrance to Cining Palace is.

Fang Zi'an knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and he had to implement that risky plan. He commanded in a loud voice: "Take a few quilts and soak them with water." ”

The chamberlain quickly took a few quilts, soaked them in the pool, and carried them over.

"Whoever goes in with me to save people." Fang Zi'an shouted loudly while wrapping a wet cloth towel around his head and face.

Lei Hu shouted, "I'll go in with the adults." ”

Li Dalong also shouted: "I will also go in with the adults." ”

The seven or eight soldiers of the defense army around him also rushed to follow Fang Zi'an in, and Fang Zi'an shouted: "Lei Hu and Zhao Gang follow me in, Li Dalong, you are responsible for suppressing the fire outside, and no one outside can command it." ”

Before Li Dalong could say more, Fang Zi'an waved his hand, reached out and grabbed a bucket of water from the hand of a waiter next to him, and poured it on the top of his head, and suddenly got soaked all over his body. Then, he lifted a wet quilt to his head and got ready. Lei Hu and another soldier named Zhao Gang also immediately drew a gourd in the same way, poured it all over their bodies, and lifted up the wet quilt.

"Li Dalong, suppress the fire head, we are going in." Fang Zi'an yelled in a muffled voice.

Li Dalong stomped his feet, and shouted at the nine water dragons on the three ladders with all his throat: "Suppress the entrance with all your strength, Lord Fang, they are going in." ”

Nine water dragons swept towards the entrance with all their might, like a pouring rain pouring on the building at the entrance, and the white vapor sprayed in all directions, making a boiling and violent sizzling sound. Fang Zi'an roared and rushed away with the wet quilt, followed by Lei Hu and Zhao Gang, who also rushed into the smoke and flames.

Zhao Gou's hand grabbed the trunk of the tree beside him and pulled off a large piece of the bark of the trunk. The surrounding ministers also looked at all this in amazement, admiring Fang Zi'an's courage, but also feeling that this was looking for death.

"This is a meritorious service with his life, this Fang Zi'an, I'm afraid I'm crazy." Qin Hui, who was standing far away on the side of a rockery, muttered in his ear.

Qin Hui's face was cold, and he said in a low voice: "Lord Wan Qi, you are seeking wealth and danger." If he succeeds, he will be a great achievement. ”

The person next to him was Wan Qiao, and he said in a low voice: "Does Qin Xiang want him to succeed, or doesn't he want him to succeed?" ”

Qin Hui turned his head and glared and shouted: "Of course I hope he succeeds, he saved the Queen Mother." Lord Wan Qi is afraid that he is dizzy. ”

Wan Qian was startled and hurriedly bowed down and shut up.
