Chapter 805 Sleepless Night

  This matter involves the safety of Hongguo. It’s no wonder that Mei Fu Yin is so anxious that he rushes around the city on horseback with so many people on horseback at night.

  The houses in this year are all wooden structures, and the wind is relatively strong in these two days. Once the houses are burnt up, they will expand rapidly with the help of the cold wind.

  If you can’t put it out in time, I’m afraid that the houses around Xixiang Hall will not be able to keep it.

  Luo Qinghan called Zhao Xian, and said in a deep voice.

   "You go to the Patrol Department and ask their people to assist Jingzhao Mansion to put out the fire."

   "Here!"

  Zhao Xian squeezed out the crowd and quickly rushed towards the patrol and defense division.

  Xiao Xixi and Luo Qinghan took a carriage to Xixiang Pavilion.

  From a distance, you can see the location of the Xixiang Pavilion blazing into the sky.

  Xixiang Pavilion was also surrounded by flower houses. The people in those flower houses were all dispersed by officers and soldiers. The street was full of people, all looking eagerly in the direction of Xixiang Pavilion.

  The soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion wrapped in soaked quilts and rushed into the sea of ​​fire to save people.

  Mei Guangtao stood outside in a hurry, sweating all over his forehead.

  Every time a person is rescued, Mei Guangtao will rush up and take a look to see if it is Hong Guogong.

  He has no friendship with Hong Guogong, nor does he have a good impression of Hong Guogong, but Hong Guogong has a special identity.

  If he was burned to death in the Xixiang Pavilion, the Empress Dowager would be furious, and the first person to be unlucky at that time would definitely be him, Jingzhaofu Yin, who was in charge of Shengjing City.

  At the back, Mei Guangtao really couldn't stand. He ignored the obstacles of the people around him, rolled up his sleeves, and carried the bucket to help put out the fire.

  Sand, soil, water...

  As long as it is something that can extinguish fire, everything is brought over.

   Soon the officers and soldiers of the Patrol and Defense Department rushed over, and even the heads of the two Patrol and Defense Departments, Xiao Lingfeng and Luo Yechen, rushed to the news.

  Xiao Lingfeng caught Mei Guangtao who was still desperately trying to fight the fire, and asked about the specific situation. He sank when he learned that Hong Guogong hadn't come out yet.

  No more nonsense, people from the Patrol and Defense Department immediately joined the firefighting team.

  Xiao Lingfeng personally rushed into the fire to save people.

  Luo Yechen did not watch outside, he also helped put out the fire.

  Slightly past for a while.

  Xiao Lingfeng rushed out of the sea of ​​fire, with a person on his back.

  He shouted in a hoarse voice.

   "Call the doctor!"

  Mei Guangtao and Luo Yechen immediately threw the bucket aside when they saw this. The two ran over quickly and found that the person who was backed by Xiao Lingfeng was Hong Guogong.

  Hongguo was completely dark all over, and he was in a coma.

  As a precaution, almost all the doctors in the city were called over, and they were treating those who were rescued.

  At this time, I heard someone calling the doctor, and immediately a middle-aged doctor ran over.

  When he ran to the front, he realized that the one calling the doctor was actually a high-ranking official, and two high-ranking officials were standing beside that high-ranking official.

  The three officials looked at the doctor together, and almost made the doctor kneel in fright.

  Mei Guangtao urged: "Come here and show the Lord Guo to see!"

  The doctor was surprised again: "Guoguoguoguoguo?"

  Mei Guangtao: "Stop the ink, it's important to save people, hurry up!"

  The doctor squatted down in a hurry and inspected the injuries of Hong Guo Gong, who was lying on the ground.

  Fortunately, Hong Guogong only suffered some skin injuries. The problem is not serious. The reason why he passed out is because he inhaled a lot of smoke, which caused the brain to lack oxygen.

  The doctor gave him a few needles, and his breathing became smoother, but he hadn't woken up yet.

  The doctor cautiously said: “The Lord Guo is no longer in danger of his life. Then he only needs to rest for a while to wake up. After waking up, he will come to Renxintang to find me. I will give him a prescription.”

  The conditions here are limited, it is really impossible to write a prescription.

  Mei Guangtao had already sent someone to inform the Hongguo government.

  Now the two sons of Hong Guogong have come over, and they carried Hong Guogong into the carriage with various hands, and then sent the people back to the Guogong mansion.

  As for the others, wait for Hongguo Gong to wake up.

After   Hong Guogong was rescued, Mei Guangtao felt much less pressure.

  He arched his hands at Xiao Lingfeng, sincerely.

   "Thanks to Yong Anbo this time."

  Xiao Lingfeng wiped the sweat off his face and said dumbly: "It's okay."

  The main reason why he rushed into the fire to save people regardless of the danger of his life was that he did not want to make this matter a big deal.

  Hong Guogong is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager. If he dies, the Empress Dowager will definitely not give up. At that time, there will be many moths.

  As the head of the patrol and defense department, he is in charge of the security work in the city. If the empress dowager has to anger, he is likely to bear part of the anger.

  The fire was not completely extinguished until midnight.

The people from the Patrol and Defense Department can go back to rest after completing their tasks, but the people from Jingzhao Mansion have to stay and take care of the aftermath.

  For Mei Guangtao, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

  Xiao Xixi and Luo Qinghan have already returned to the palace.

  It was not early, and the two of them did not dare to go to sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Shang Kui came to report that the fire had been completely extinguished, and that the entire Xixiang Hall had been burned to the point that there was not much left. As for the people in the Xixiang Hall, most of them were rescued. Unfortunately, a small number of people died in the fire.

  The specific number of casualties was written into the zhezi by Mei Guangtao and passed to the emperor.

  In this fire, a total of six people died and the number of injured was relatively large, 37 people.

  This does not include the number of officers and soldiers injured in the rescue process.

  The identities of the six people who died have not yet been identified, and Mei Guangtao said that it will take some time.

  In the Changle Palace, the Empress Dowager heard the news that Hongguo had been burned to death when she got up. She was so anxious that she almost lost her breath.

  She hurriedly packed up and went out of the palace to the Hongguo Gong’s Mansion to see in person how her brother was burned.

  It may be that her brain is too strong. When she saw Hong Guogong with her own eyes, she breathed a sigh of relief.

  Hong Guogong only suffered a slight skin injury, his throat was dumb, and he was temporarily unable to speak, but the others were okay, not as tragic as she had expected.

  The Empress Dowager stayed in the Guogong Mansion for a short period of time.

  Everyone thought she would order Jingzhao Mansion to find out the cause of the fire as soon as possible. After all, her brother almost lost his life in the fire, so she would definitely care.

However.

  After the Empress Dowager left Hongguo Gongfu, she went directly to the Shengguang Temple, asked her brother for a peace symbol, and then returned to the palace. Everything was as usual, without mentioning the fire.

  Her reaction was too calm, but it was a bit weird.

  After the Lunar New Year holiday, the annual vacation ends, and officials have returned to their posts.

  Luo Qinghan also wants to restart his work life of clocking in on time every day.

  The investigation of the fire has been ongoing.

  Among the six dead, one was the old bustard of Xixiang Hall.

  As for the reason Hongguo Gong went to Xixiangguan, it was naturally to have fun.

  He is a well-known **** person. He often wanders around the place of fireworks. It doesn't seem strange that he wants to go out for a drink on the evening of the Spring Festival.

  ……
