Chapter 328 Joy
The successful rescue of the Queen Mother made all the officials excited. Shi Hao and Pu'an County Prince Zhao Yuan let out a long sigh of relief.
Prince Pu'an rushed forward and said to Zhao Gou, who was holding the Queen Mother and crying with joy: "My father's great blessings filled the sky, and his filial piety touched the world, so we were able to rescue the Queen Mother. But the most important thing now is to let the imperial doctor take a look at the Queen Mother's body."
How about some treatment? The Queen Mother must also be frightened, so she needs to go to a quiet place to calm herself down."
Hearing this, Zhao Gou nodded repeatedly and said, "What I'm saying is, hurry up and send the Queen Mother for treatment. Zhao Yuan, I'll go with the Queen Mother and you will be in charge here. By the way, there is also Fang Zian and the others. I'm afraid they will suffer too."
I'm injured, thanks to them this time. If you want to be cured, let the Imperial Hospital also send people to treat them."
Zhao Yuan said hurriedly: "Father, don't worry, I will handle the follow-up matters. Father, I will just go and accompany the Queen Mother."
Zhao Gou nodded, and several chamberlains brought the soft frame over, put Queen Mother Wei on it and carried her away. Zhao Gou also trotted along beside her.
After Zhao Yuan bowed and sent Zhao Gou away, he turned around and immediately ran towards Fang Zian and others who were surrounded by the Fang Yu Army, and repeatedly asked about Fang Zian's situation. Fang Zian had many burns on his body, and there were many fires on his legs.
There were also many burns on his arms, but they were not serious. The most serious ones were Lei Hu and Zhao Gang. The two of them had fallen into a coma, with serious burns on their heads, faces and shoulders. In the end, they struggled to carry the burning log.
They suffered huge injuries. The two palace ladies who were dragged out were also burned beyond recognition and were dying. Of more than a dozen palace ladies, only these two escaped in the end.
"Fang Zian, you...well done! You have done a great job." Zhao Yuan looked at the disgraced Fang Zian and nodded heavily and sighed.
"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter whether you have merit or not. My two brothers have been burned. Please save them. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to rescue the Queen Mother." Fang Zian said.
Zhao Yuan nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will immediately order people to take them to Tai Hospital for treatment. You will go too."
Fang Zian stood up limping and said: "I don't need to go, it's just a few burns. The fire here is not extinguished. As the chief officer of the Fangyu Army, how can I leave. Prince, you can rest assured."
Zhao Yuan nodded and said: "That's okay, but don't insist on it."
When Fang Zian and Zhao Yuan were talking, on the side of the rockery, Qin Hui, Wan Qixi, Tang Situi, Cao Yong, Liang Shidao and others all looked ugly. They were all Qin Hui's confidants, so naturally they also knew Fang Zian's identity. Now this matter
thing, they all know what it means.
"Things are getting more and more interesting. This Fang Zian... really rescued the Queen Mother. Now, he will become famous. Prime Minister Qin, it is not as good as God." Wan Qixi said in a low voice.
Qin Hui frowned and shouted: "Master Wanqi, when will you change your habit of talking too much? It is a great joy to rescue the Queen Mother. You think too much."
Wan Qixigan smiled and said: "What Qin Xiang said is that it is a happy event, a happy event. Qin Xiang, should we go and see how the Queen Mother is doing?"
Qin Hui nodded and said: "Yes, it is prudent to go and see the Queen Mother. Be smarter tomorrow and bring some of the Ganoderma lucidum and fairy grass hidden at home to treat burns, so that the Queen Mother can recover as soon as possible."
After saying that, Qin Hui turned around and walked away. Wan Qixi and others also turned around and followed. Seeing Qin Hui leaving, most of the officials also dispersed and left the palace.
Fang Zian simply washed his body and bandaged his wounds. He declined Li Dalong's suggestion to rest and began to direct the fire extinguishing. Although there was little significance in extinguishing the fire at the moment, as a defense force, he could not leave the fire alone.
This is the duty. Fang Zian wants to tell everyone that he will never give up. Besides, if the fire is allowed to rage, it is not impossible to burn down the entire imperial garden if it spreads, so it must be extinguished.
Soon after, the other four Dragon King vehicles arrived one after another, and Yang Cunzhong mobilized hundreds of soldiers to help transport water. Nearly twenty water dragons began to spray out the fire, and the situation suddenly changed greatly. Fang Zian also ordered the partial collapse of the side hall to be carried out.
The fire was extinguished by pulling it down. An hour later, the fire in the side hall was completely extinguished. The passage leading to the main hall was even opened.
The Dragon King Car braved the heat wave and advanced into the inner garden. Water sprayed like a downpour on the top and sides of the main hall that was already on fire, suppressing the fire. Hundreds of people were exhausted from the work, and it was not until dawn that all the fires were put out.
.
The soldiers found a total of twenty-three corpses in the rubble, in the burned palace, and in the scorched garden. Some had been burned to the point of charcoal, while others were distorted beyond recognition. Some were roasted alive.
He was dead, and the flesh on his body was roasted. The situation was really horrific. A huge palace was completely burned into ruins. Except for the main middle part of the main hall, it was almost completely reduced to rubble. The ruthlessness of the fire was evident.
Fang Zian could finally take a breath. He was sore and exhausted and sat on a rockery. The burns on his arms and legs were burning. But Fang Zian knew that these injuries were actually lucky. He was actually going to die tonight.
God blessed him. Now he is most concerned about the injuries of Lei Hu and Zhao Gang. He doesn't want to hear bad news. Needless to say, Lei Hu had a good impression of him from the beginning. Although he is a fool,
But he never cheated, and he proved to be trustworthy at critical moments. That Zhao Gang was an unexpected discovery. He was originally the captain of the newly formed Nancheng Special Service Team, and the reason for his promotion was just because of his ability during various trainings.
Among them, Zhao Gang's performance was among the best, and his physical fitness and training level were both satisfactory. In line with the principles of rewards, incentives and competence, Fang Ziancai promoted him to be the captain of the Nancheng Special Service Team. This time, his performance was also
Fang Zian was not disappointed. Like Lei Hu, he did not miss the key moments along the way. Fang Zian did not want them to make any mistakes again.
Zhao Yuan slowly walked to Fang Zian, handed him a water bag, and laughed in a low voice: "Drink some water, the fire is out, that's amazing."
Fang Zian thanked him, took the water bag, raised his head and asked, "Your Majesty, my two brothers..."
"Don't worry, the imperial doctor is treating them. They won't die. But... they may have to suffer some hardships before they can recover. The one named Lei Hu has half of his face badly burned and may be disfigured. The other one is fine, but he won't die."
Zhao Yuan smiled.
Fang Zian took a long breath and said: "It's good to be alive. Brother Leihu's appearance is just like that. He's not very lovable. Maybe it will look better after being burned. Ha!"
Zhao Yuan couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Fang Zian raised his neck and drank water. He drank half of the water in the water bag and then burped with satisfaction.
"Zian, the fire is out, take your people back. After you go back, have a good sleep... have a good rest. By the way, I forgot to tell you that the Queen Mother is unharmed.
, there is no injury at all on the body. She also asked if you are dead. The emperor said that you are not dead, and she is very happy. Zian, you go back and recuperate, maybe... tomorrow... maybe the day after tomorrow, the emperor and the queen mother
...I may want to see you. Well...you...have done well this time, I'm very happy. This fire...may have come at the right time." Zhao Yuan said slowly in a low voice.
Of course Fang Zian understood what he meant. When he saved people before, Fang Zian didn't think much about it. But now, Fang Zian naturally understood that he had made a great contribution this time. Although he did not deliberately achieve this goal, if
Fang Zian was naturally extremely happy because of what he got from saving people this time.
"Okay, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. After Li Dalong and the others checked the embers and confirmed that they would not re-ignite, Zian went back." Fang Zian said.
"Take my carriage home, and I will order my guards to escort you home." Zhao Yuan said lightly, turned around and left quickly.
…
When Fang Zian returned home, Chunni had been waiting like an ant on a hot pot. She actually got the news last night. If Fang Zian didn't come back for a long time, she asked Lao Huang to find out the news. Lao Huang went to the street
, learned the news of the fire in the palace, and after asking around the store, they found out that all the fire brigade from the Fangyu Army Yamen had set out to put out the fire in the palace. Lao Huang immediately went to the Fangyu Army Yamen to ask for the news, only to find out that Fang Zian had also gone there.
The palace put out the fire.
That night, the fire in the palace was raging, and news spread wildly in the city. People who came to watch the excitement described how fierce the fire was, and said that many people were burned to death. This made Chunni worried to death. She couldn't sleep at all that night.
.
It wasn't until daybreak that Fang Zian came back in ragged clothes, and a big stone fell in Chuni's heart. After Fang Zian took a bath, he lay on the mat to rest, and Chunni gave him the towel she bought outside without opening her eyes.
The little mouse soaked sesame oil to treat burns and applied it to him, while asking him what happened. Before he could finish asking, Fang Zian snored loudly and fell asleep.
Chuni sighed and covered him with a thin quilt. She sat next to him and looked at his red and wrinkled face burned by the fire. She felt both pity and emotion in her heart. Her husband was really a hard-working Saburo. He rushed
Don't you want to think about the danger when you go in to put out the fire? If something happens to him, neither he nor the child in his belly will survive.
"Why are you working so hard? If we don't become officials, even if we plant some land, raise some chickens, ducks, and vegetables, we will live a good life. Why are you working so hard? Hey!" Chunni thought in her heart.
Fang Zian slept until noon and then woke up. When he woke up, he felt a burning pain all over his body, and the clothes he wore were scratching his skin. He knew that he had been burned. However, looking at his skin made him feel sore.
There was nothing unusual, just redness, which was really lucky. Fang Zian knew that the pain would disappear in a day or two, just like sunburn, and would not cause any major consequences, so there was no need to worry.
I got up, my stomach growled, so I left the room and went outside. I was surprised to find Qin Xiqing, Shi Ningyue, Shen Linger and Chunni sitting under the big tree in the yard, drinking tea and chatting softly. Obviously, they were
Fang Zian came to visit him. Fang Zian did not disturb them. Seeing the four of them chatting leisurely there, Fang Zian was quite moved. After going through the hell of fire last night, Fang Zian felt that the scene in front of him was really...
The happiest moment of his life.
