The fire burned from dawn to dawn, and it was not until the sky grew brighter that the fire was completely extinguished. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After the fire was extinguished, Anxingfang became a mess.

All the people involved in the firefighting were exhausted and collapsed on the ground, and Li Canghai was no exception.

Leaning against a big tree, Li Canghai closed his eyes, wanting to rest for a while before going to investigate the scene, but he didn't expect that he was too tired and quickly fell asleep.

Lu Jitong and a group of Qianniuwei guarded Li Canghai's side, although they were all injured when fighting the fire, they still dutifully protected Li Canghai.

When the fire was extinguished, Li Canghai ordered the scene to be cordoned off, and the inconsequential people were cleared out one after another.

Now, in addition to Li Canghai and Qian Niuwei, there are only a cadre from Chang'an Mansion and so on.

At this moment, a woman suddenly rushed in, knelt in front of Han Qu, and cried: "My lord, how is the husband of the people's wife now?" ”

Han Qu was stunned, he looked at the woman, then looked back at the house that had already burned down, and shook his head unbearably.

When the woman saw this, she only felt that her eyes were dark, and she let out a miserable scream, and suddenly fainted.

Li Canghai, who was asleep, was suddenly awakened by the woman's screams, he jumped up, rubbed his eyes vigorously, kept himself awake as much as possible, and walked over quickly.

"Lord Han, what's going on?" Li Canghai asked.

"Your Excellency, are you awake? You've only slept for a stick of incense, do you want to continue to rest? Han Qu hurriedly asked.

Li Canghai frowned, waved his hand, and said, "One stick of incense is enough, Lord Han doesn't have to worry about me, what's the matter with her?" ”

Han Qu glanced at the woman who had fainted on the ground, sighed, and said, "Lord Hui, this woman's husband is the one who was infected. Yesterday, Xia Guan was ordered by the Lord to detain all the infected people, and her husband was one of them. ”

After a pause, Han Qumian couldn't bear to say, "I just ordered someone to go and check...... It was found that all the detainees had died, and none of them had ...... survived. ”

Hearing this, Li Canghai shook his head violently and instantly sobered up.

He asked Han Qu to take care of the woman, and immediately walked towards the ruins of the house.

Seeing this, Lu Ji and others hurriedly called a group of officials to clean up the fallen beams, doors, windows and other things.

Walking into the ruins, everyone gasped when they saw what they saw.

There are about 20 corpses lying in the ruins, which can be described as extremely miserable.

Most of the corpses were burned to charcoal, and only a few corpses could barely be recognized.

Their corpses were still in the same tragic condition as they were before death, and their outstretched hands seemed to be calling for help to the sky, and they looked very painful before they died.

Li Canghai's face was a little ugly, he frowned, and carefully identified each corpse.

But most of the bodies had been charred and were unrecognizable.

Li Canghai suddenly became a little flustered in his heart.

Although Huiguang is a monk, he has a lifelong friendship with him.

What's more, Huiguang's own brother died to save him, and in his heart, he has long regarded Huiguang as his brother.

There is also Hong Yan, although Hong Yan has done a lot of evil things, but she is also a woman who values love and righteousness.

Li Canghai didn't believe that the two of them would die here.

But according to Han Qu, from the time the fire started, he didn't see the two of them come out, which made him feel a little uneasy.

And at this moment, the wailing voice of the previous woman was heard from outside the ruins.

"My husband! What a miserable death you had! Whining....... O Lord! Didn't you lock up my husband for healing? Why did you kill him? …… Whining. You pay back my husband, you pay back my husband! Whining~. ”

The woman knelt on the ground, pulled the corner of Han Qu's clothes, and cried loudly.

Han Qu was stunned in place, with an unbearable look on his face, and sighed: "You get up first, no one would have thought that such a thing would happen?" What's more, the official is only acting on orders...... The purpose of imprisoning your husband is to prevent him from harming others! ”

"You talk nonsense! My husband is only a little delirious, but he has never harmed anyone...... You killed my husband! I'm going to sue the royal court! Oh my husband! What a miserable death you had! Woo woo ~ ~. The woman couldn't stop crying, but she listened sadly, and those who heard it wept.

"My son! Why did you just go! O my son! ”

"Big brother...... My good big brother, you died so unjustly! ”

……

At this time, more and more cries were heard.

Li Canghai asked the officials to carry the body out, and then walked out of the ruins.

Looking around, Li Canghai found that there were people kneeling in front of him.

There were men and women, old and young, all crying loudly.

And Han Qu stood in place with a blank face, a little at a loss.

Li Canghai walked over, frowned, and said, "Lord Han, what's going on?" ”

When Han Qu saw Li Canghai coming, as if he had seen a savior, he hurriedly said: "Lord Hui, they are all family members of the deceased...... They said that the yamen deliberately imprisoned the people, causing their relatives to lose their lives, and wanted to go to the court to sue ....... ”

Li Canghai walked up to everyone and said, "Fellow villagers, the yamen did not deliberately detain the people, but did it as a last resort to protect your lives. It is the negligence of this official that such a tragic incident has happened now, and this official hereby expresses his deep apologies to all the villagers. ”

As he spoke, Li Canghai bent down and bowed deeply to the people.

"Your Excellency! Do you think a single negligence can wipe out dozens of lives? The government made it clear that they arrested my brother and promised that nothing would happen, but now he died here inexplicably. Although I am a common man, I also want to seek justice for my brother! For the sake of merit, the yamen did not hesitate to kill the people, I must go to sue the emperor! In the midst of the crowd, a man with a beard stood up and said loudly.

"That's right! Get justice! Get justice! This is all a trick of the government, and it was the government that killed them! ”

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, in the capital, the government actually used this kind of means to kill the people! It's just a vain official for the parents of the people! Pity my brother, who has just rejoiced in his noble son, and thus befallen such a calamity. Leaving the younger brother and daughter-in-law with children, how should orphans and widows live? ”

"My uncle, too, was seriously ill and had a cough, so he was arrested and imprisoned. I originally thought that the government would really be kind enough to treat the people, but I never thought that it would kill him! ”

"The government openly kills the people! What is the reason of heaven? Where is the royal law? We want to sue the royal court, we want justice! ”

There was an angry roar in the crowd, and more and more people echoed it, and many of them had red eyes and clenched fists, as if they were going to rush over at any moment. (To be continued.) )
