Is it that my potential to confuse people like Hitler has never been discovered, or has the IQ of these two sticks fallen below the sea level?
He actually let me go after just talking nonsense...
Fang Jun stood up, rubbed his wrists that were bound by ropes and had no blood circulation, thought for a moment, and said, "I can't leave!"
The two Goguryeo warriors glared and said angrily: "Don't leave? That Changsun Chong already hates you to the core. He set up this trap just to make you know that you will die. Do you think he can let you go?"
"That's right, we would rather be deceived by you than kill you at the risk of ruining Da Mo Li Zhi's important event. Why don't you leave without knowing what's going on?"
Fang Jun spread his hands and said helplessly: "What can I do? His Majesty the Emperor has given an order that if His Royal Highness Princess Changle cannot be brought back intact, the Emperor will kill the whole family of a certain person and execute a certain person in Lingchi... So, why don't you two help a certain person?"
Use your help to rescue Her Royal Highness Princess Changle?"
The two Goguryeo warriors looked at each other.
Damn it, they all say that the Han people are treacherous, today I not only saw it, but also saw another ability of the Han people...
What kind of face does this have, and why is it so thick?
It would be fine if they let Fang Jun go, after all, Changsun Chong couldn't do anything to them, but turning against him and helping Fang Jun rescue Princess Changle... This would be very difficult.
*****
The whole city of Chang'an was sleepless all night.
The fire in Dongshi was raging, turning half of the sky red, causing people to panic and making a commotion. Anyone who had property in Dongshi, whether they were affected by the sudden fire or not, all yelled at Fang Jun at home!
The reason why the aristocratic family members compromised with the emperor during the Third Division's judgeship was that, on the one hand, there was insufficient evidence to convict Fang Jun, and on the other hand, they hoped that Fang Jun would quickly return to Jingzhao Mansion to take charge of the overall organization to put out the fire. After all, Jingzhao is now
No one in the government could play a role except Fang Jun. The most important thing is that even if Fang Jun is released, as Jing Zhaoyin, he will already be responsible for the fire.
But who would have thought that Fang Jun would be such a bachelor?
He sealed off the entire East Market, just to ensure that the fire would not harm anyone. He ignored the valuable shops that were swept away by the flames and never mentioned the matter of putting out the fire. Many aristocratic families affected by the fire went to Jingzhao Mansion.
They asked for explanations and urged them to put out the fire quickly, but they were told that the government officials in Jingzhao Mansion were currently hunting down the culprits who kidnapped Princess Changle. They were really short of manpower and powerless to put out the fire.
Well, that’s a pretty strong reason…
Even if the members of the aristocratic family are full of resentment, they are helpless.
No matter how much the goods are worth, no matter how great the losses are, can it still be compared to the life and safety of Her Royal Highness Princess Changle? Even if you think so in your heart, you will never dare to say it. No matter in private, the Guanlong Group, the Jiangnan nobles, or even the Shandong aristocratic family
No matter how passionate the fight with the emperor is, at least you must maintain enough respect for the emperor openly.
We can understand that your Jingzhao Mansion has no manpower. After all, the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess is a top priority. So let’s organize our own manpower to put out the fire, right?
But when the fire brigade organized by various companies rushed to Dongshi, they found that all the entrances and exits of Dongshi were blocked, and no one was allowed to enter or exit without authorization...
The family members are angry!
You Jingzhao Mansion can just turn a blind eye to the raging fire, but we can't put out the fire ourselves?
The answer given by Jingzhao Mansion is even more overwhelming - human life is more important than the value of goods. For the sake of personal safety of every household, Jingzhao Mansion will never allow amateurs without professional fire-fighting training to enter the fire scene...
This time, the servants of each household secretly had fun.
Fighting fires these days is not an easy task. There are no fire trucks, no high-pressure water guns, and no fire prevention equipment. We can only rely on manpower to carry buckets of water to the fire scene one after another. The danger is too great.
A fire of this size would be impossible to put out without more than ten or twenty lives lost...
The heads of the family are so high and mighty that their servants will have to go through fire and water just by talking. Now there is the Jingzhao Mansion in front of them, who is simply the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves the suffering...
The eldest men of the aristocratic family were completely helpless.
I could only watch with tears as the flames soared into the sky. The value of my goods was swept away by the raging fire, burned to the ground, and turned into ashes...
The hatred towards Fang Jun in my heart could not be extinguished even if I poured out the water from three rivers!
It is true that no one in Jingzhao Mansion except Fang Jun has fun. As soon as Fang Jun came back, he covered the sky with one hand. He said he was not allowed to put out the fire, so no one was allowed to put out the fire...
Hatred of the rich will exist in any era. As long as there are class distinctions and differences between rich and poor, it will never disappear.
Compared with the nobles of aristocratic families who are stunned and sighing, ordinary people are happy to see the success...
In the dark night, the night wind blows the flames.
The fire borrowed the power of the wind, and the wind assisted the fire. Between the shops, countless goods were swept away by the flames!
The people suppressed the excitement in their hearts and shouted deep in their hearts: Burn it! Burn all these families who are unkind for their wealth, and burn all the value of these goods that they have obtained by squeezing the poor people!
Burn it, let the fire be more intense!
The raging fire seems to have heard the power of anger, the call of enthusiasm and the confidence of victory. They are jumping and flying happily, they are laughing, they are convinced that the darkness cannot cover the flame, yes, it cannot!
The flames jumped like crazy, sweeping everything in front of them and burning them in their own abyss!
In Linghu's house, Linghu Defen stood by the window, with his hands behind his hands looking at the fire in the distance that reflected the sky red. His old face was full of pain and anger!
Fang Jun is disgusting!
The Linghu family suffered the most serious losses in the Dongshi fire. Not only were several shops and warehouses burned clean, but the value of the goods stored in the warehouse by other merchants was also burned. The loss to itself was not bad.
Bear it, but the loss that is about to be paid to other companies makes Linghu Defen feel like he is cutting his own heart!
That’s not only the value of the goods that were burned, but also the associated damages to other merchants due to breach of contract, etc. That’s simply an astronomical figure!
The Linghu family has accumulated more than ten generations to achieve the substantial wealth and prominent status it has today. Will it be completely burned by this fire?
A hundred years from now, how can I have the face to face my ancestors underground?
How will future generations view their ancestor who single-handedly ruined the family heritage?
I'm afraid it's not a festival, and no one even puts two kilograms of pork head on the table for me...
The sound of footsteps behind me.
Linghu Suo's voice sounded: "The handyman from the Dongshi Store took advantage of the chaos and escaped back."
Linghu Defen's expression condensed and he quickly asked: "How is the situation?"
Since the fire broke out, the East Market area has been blocked by Jingzhao Mansion. Outsiders are not allowed to enter, and those inside who want to escape have been controlled. So far, the only sight in the city is the raging flames of the East Market fire, but what happened?
But I don't know the situation at all.
"The child has brought him here." Linghu Suo turned around and waved to the door.
One person quickly walked in, and when he reached Linghu Defen, he knelt down on the ground with a bang, his forehead banged on the ground, and blood started to flow out in a few seconds, and he cried out sadly: "Master, I owe you a big debt."
Trust and reuse, and I will never atone for my sins even if I die..."
Linghu Defen recognized that this person was a steward from the store in Dongshi. He was anxious, but seeing this person acting like this made him even more anxious. He immediately kicked this person to the ground with his flying kick.
, scolded angrily: "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. Compared with the value of the goods in the warehouse, how can you tell the fate of a dog like you?"
"Yes Yes Yes……"
The steward quickly stood up, wiped the blood on his forehead, and said quickly: "The fire burned very fast. The little boy was sleeping soundly. When he was woken up by the waiter, the fire was already overwhelming and there was no way to save him!
All the goods in several warehouses were burned, the shops were burned to the ground, and even the houses collapsed..."
Ancient houses were all made of wood, and they were most afraid of fire. If the fire burned away the beams, the whole house would collapse, knocking down the surrounding walls, and turn into ruins...
The muscles on Linghu Defen's face twitched suddenly, and his vision went dark. He swayed and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Linghu Keyian beside him had quick hands and supported Linghu Defen's arm, so that he did not let it go.
He fell to the ground. However, Linghu Defen's subconsciously raised hand accidentally hit Linghu Suo's face, which was so painful that Linghu Suo almost shed tears.
Princess Gaoyang had beaten him so hard that only a few of his teeth were left. He couldn't even eat and could only drink soup. His gums were touched and it hurt terribly!
Even though he was prepared for the worst, Linghu Defen still couldn't accept it when he heard that the situation was worse than he imagined.
He only had one thought in his mind at this time - how did the fire start?
How come the fire spread out of control as soon as it was discovered and quickly swept through dozens of shops?
