The city gate of the fifth watch day is bright, the city gate is still closed and the people are not allowed to enter and exit, the fire in Shilipo is not controlled, and it is not clear how much damage there is.

The news in the city is blocked, and the people of a city seem to be trapped in an urn. The carriage of the Eastern Mansion stopped at the city gate for half an hour, and Ruan Yanzhe finally lifted the curtain impatiently, "There is a fire in the south, you can stop us when we go out from the north gate!" ”

Many noble families also packed up and flocked to the north gate, but they were also blocked by the defenders of the city.

When such a major event happens, no one can easily leave the city without the prefect's order.

The soldiers persuaded each other with good words: "Master Ruan San dissipates his anger, this fire can't burn into the city." Don't believe it, the Lord of Futai loves the people like a son, if the mountain fire really burned into the city, the Lord should have ordered the whole city to evacuate to Linxian, and we didn't receive the order to mean that it was okay. ”

The soldiers guarding the city gate have always been talking about people and talking about ghosts, Ruan Yanzhe has never believed it, but if this is the decision of the prefect He Fangnian, it will be seven or eight points unbelievable.

At that time, the steward of the East Mansion rode his horse and said quickly: "Third master, old lady, the fire has been controlled, you can go home!" ”

Ruan Yanzhe looked up at the sky of the black hole, "So fast? ”

Other nobles were also surprised, they had seen He Fangnian's strength as early as a few years ago when Pingyang was flooded, but they didn't expect it to go to the next level this year.

The steward gasped and said, "It's the third miss, if the third miss doesn't fund and mobilize the strong men of the whole city to fight the fire, this fire may really burn into the city." ”

Three girls? That little ancestor in Xifu?

Ruan Yanzhe turned around, and the old lady Ruan had already lifted the curtain to look over, and both of them had disbelief on their faces. It was still Mrs. Ruan who was the first to come back to her senses and asked the steward: "...... she How much does it cost? ”

Haogui looked at it one after another, and the steward stammered under pressure and replied, "One ...... 10,000 taels ...... Gold. He looked up at the third old man and the old lady's expressions.

"Ou-" Ruan Yanzhe's eyes lit up, and he fell straight up.

The third lady exclaimed, and the old man was about to get out of the car to help him, but the old lady Ruan's chest was tight, and she fell backwards in discouragement.

The third lady exclaimed: "Mother! Hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch it, but his eyes looked at Ruan Yanzhe on the ground from time to time, and the maid and the maid's house doctor rushed forward to rescue.

Nobles, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know the performance of the Ruan family, so you should know that you don't have to leave your hometown and faint with joy, right?

……

10,000 taels of gold is only used to mobilize the strong men, which is a big fortune and a small use, although Ruan Miaoling is not a businessman, she also knows that she can't do trading at a loss.

The mountain fire crossed, and the ten-mile slope was like a bald scoop as far as the eye could see, leaving not an inch of grass. There is not only the ten mile slope of the bald scoop, but also the six hidden mountains behind it.

He Fang sighed long, his back was already soaked with sweat and clinging to his skin, "It'......s good if there are no casualties."

"yes." Chang Suigang wanted to stretch his sleeves to wipe the black ash on his face, but found that most of the sleeves of his coat had been bitten off by the tongue of fire at some point, and the original white lining had become dirty.

Chang Sui looked at the bald mountains, and the cold wind was blowing in his heart. "My lord, the day of the Commander's inspection is getting closer and closer—"

The performance appraisal of officials in various places is not only done by officials and officials, but also by the Qincha who came by order.

He Fangnian opened his mouth to speak, and the soldiers in the rear shouted: "My lord, the garrison is here!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Lu Jin had already galloped to He Fangnian on his horse, holding a horsewhip in one hand and pointing at He Fangnian. "He Fangnian, how did you become the prefect? Lao Tzu's camp is completely ruined! ”

He Fangnian walked over and waved his hand, the cuffs bloomed like flowers, and Lu Jin on the horse was crooked and almost dragged down by him.

"The fire started from your camp, and before the official looked for you, you poured dirty water on the official first. This official is not a fairy who sees and listens to all directions, you blame the official, and the official blames you! ”

Lu Jin whipped hard, but He Fangnian didn't let go at all, and glared at him with his eyes. His uncle, how can a civil official be so energetic?

"He Fangnian, don't let go!" Lu Jin drew a knife from his side, raised it in the air and threatened angrily: "If you don't let go, Lao Tzu cut it!" ”

He Fangnian did not back down at all, "If you have the ability, you can cut it, the official can write with both his left and right hands, and if he cuts off his right hand, the official will use his left hand to sue the emperor!" ”

Chang Sui shook his head helplessly, not daring to persuade. Those who are barefoot and are not afraid to wear shoes are talking about the prefect himself.

Lu Jin and He Fangnian are ruthless and fierce, the two of them are not the same way at all, and they are at most moving their mouths when they fight. While Xu Yuan instructed people to clean up the ashes of the plants and trees to avoid causing a secondary fire, he pricked up his ears to listen to the two of them arguing.

It's not that Lu Jin doesn't dare to kill, it's that He Fangnian's identity is too special, and he is also the most special existence in the entire Great Song Dynasty. He is not attached to or flattered, he is dedicated to being a good official, and even the Son of Heaven favors him.

Who dares to touch the character that the Son of Heaven has a fancy to?

"Lao Tzu has to spend seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver to raise an army a year, and it was all burned to ashes overnight, how do you let Lao Tzu explain to the emperor!"

"It's not the official who sent someone to burn it, you're in a hurry, isn't the official in a hurry......

The two were still arguing, and two soldiers stumbled over, one pounced on Lu Jin, and the other pounced on He Fangnian, stumbling and not knowing what to say.

Xu Yuan pressed the acupuncture points three inches above the right wrist of the two of them at the same time, and the two soldiers slowly calmed down.

Lu Jin looked at his soldiers, "If you have a fart, release it quickly." ”

"My lord, a corpse has been found in the mountains!"

The soldiers of the government said to He Fangnian very consciously: "My lord, General Gu has sent a box of gold, at least 10,000 taels. ”

Not far away, someone was shouting "General Gu", Xu Yuan and the others looked, and sure enough, they saw a not very amiable Gu Ren riding on a horse, followed by a carriage.

Gu Ren was not verbose, and directly explained his intentions: "I heard that the wildfire burned down the houses of many farmers, and although there were no casualties, the losses were also quite heavy, so I sent gold to help the two adults to regain their strength." ”

"Is this what Miss Ruan San meant?" Xu Yuan suddenly asked.

Gu Ren smiled, "The money belongs to my young lady, so naturally it is the meaning of the young lady." ”

Xu Yuan's face instantly turned pale.

"I also begged and begged to get the consent of the young lady, after all, it is the first money that the young lady has earned hard, and I will give ......it away for nothing," Gu Ren smiled and waved his hand, "Adults don't have to feel guilty even if they use it." Although the young lady is young, she also knows how to put the kindness of her family and country first, but unfortunately she can only take so much, and someone will take care of the rest. ”

Xu Yuan exhaled heavily when he heard this, and suddenly remembered another thing, and his breath stagnated again.

He looked at Lu Jin's soldiers and asked, "You just said that there are corpses, what are the characteristics for identification?" ”

He Fangnian noticed that Xu Yuan's face was wrong, and at this time his focus returned to the matter of finding the body. "Aren't there no casualties?"

What happened to the extra corpse out of thin air?

Bing Ding said: "Although it is burnt, it can be seen that he was a strong man before he was born." ”

The soles of Xu Yuan's feet floated, and as soon as his body was crooked, he was about to fall on He Fangnian's shoulder.
