Chapter 47
When Zhu Hao dragged Zhu Houcong to the courtyard, the fire in the warehouse next door had already turned into a prairie fire.

There was a lot of smoke before, and it looked like the fire was fierce, but that was an illusion he deliberately created. A lot of water was poured on the wood near the fire point, and there were a lot of wet hay. Impression spread out.But in this era, the main building material of the house is wood, coupled with high-temperature baking, the wet wood and wet grass will dry quickly, and once the fire cannot be controlled within a small area, it cannot be cleaned up.

The fire became bigger and the heat wave hit people, but for Zhu Hao, there was no major threat for the time being.

When I came to the door, the courtyard door was blocked from the outside without accident.

"Fire, fire, don't come over here!"

Jian Maozhen blocked the door like a door god, and he was the one who had someone seal the door.

Someone asked: "How to fight the fire if you don't go in?"

Jian Maoying said: "Can't we just blow water in from the sky?"

Those people who were carrying wooden barrels and basins looked up and saw that the fire was burning, the smoke was billowing, and the wall in front of them was a foot high... It was not easy to sprinkle water over the wall, and most of it would be splashed on the wall.

"Open the door!" Zhu Hao shouted.

Jianmao Ying was talking, but when he heard Zhu Hao's cry, he turned his head and pretended not to hear it.

"There is a child here, who is from your palace..." Zhu Hao continued to shout loudly.

Jian Maozhen flattened his mouth and sneered endlessly.

When I'm stupid?
May I know that you are the only one living in this warehouse?

Don't insult my IQ, I won't be fooled.

"Old Li, someone is trapped inside, are you really helpless?" Lao Song couldn't stand it any longer, knowing that it was useless to persuade Jian Maoying, so he went to persuade Li Shun instead.

Li Shun's face was cloudy and uncertain.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight the fire, but now the risk of fighting the fire is high and the benefits are small, it's far better to kill Zhu Hao, a secret agent of Jinyiwei...

This group of coolie craftsmen should be honest and honest, but after staying in a materialistic place like the palace for a long time, the exchange of interests is not uncommon. After a long time, they only care about their own interests.

At this time, Lu Song finally brought the water dragon team with the guards of Wangfuyiweisi as the main force to fight the fire.

Jian Maoying hurried forward with the craftsmen to stop them, but this time it was obviously unstoppable, the guards were obviously much stronger in size and momentum than Jian Maoying and his gang.

Jian Maoying threatened: "Lu Dianzhan, if you don't listen to me, you will be responsible for any accidents!"

Lu Song was very conflicted, whether to save others was a difficult choice for him, Zhu Hao knew his details, Zhu Hao said that his identity would be leaked if he died, is it true?
At this moment, Zhu Hao shouted from inside the door: "Hey, there is a man here, a child from your palace, named Zhu Si!"

Now Zhu Hao is ready.

If the door is really blocked and unable to get out, he will not sit still and wait for death. At worst, he can climb over the wall and go out. There are waste woods nearby to step on. As for Zhu Houcong...it is not a big problem to leave people at the door. It is also rising in multiple directions, and the surrounding area is still safe for the time being.

As long as he goes out by himself, Jian Maoying and others see that it is useless to block the door, so can they stick there all the time and not put out the fire?

As long as the door is opened, Zhu Houcong can be rescued.

At this time Zhu Houcong coughed a few times, showing signs of waking up.

"Don't listen to that kid's nonsense, he's the only one inside..." Jian Maozhen said.

Lu Song was startled.

The craftsmen outside don't know about "Zhu San" and "Zhu Si". Ask your son to help with the conversation...

"Open the door!"

Lu Song rushed forward.

Jian Maoying still wanted to stop him, but Lu Song had already raised his saber, and directly used the scabbard to bring him down.

"There is something that looks good to you, just wait until you are out of luck!"

Jian Maozhen covered his head and cursed. Relying on the support of Hou Chun and Yuan Zonggao behind him, he was not angry, and he gritted his teeth and threatened.

The guards of the Wangfu Yiwei Division had come to put out the fire, so they couldn't help but go up and pull out the wooden stick wrapped around the door knocker, and opened the door, only to see Zhu Hao, who was covered in flames, dragging a half-dead child lying on the door Behind.

Lu Song's eyes were about to burst, and he took the bucket, and with a "wow", a bucket full of water was poured on Zhu Hao and Zhu Houcong, and the phosphorous fire was extinguished instantly.

……

……

A group of people hurriedly carried Zhu Hao and Zhu Houcong out of the threshold.

People were temporarily moved to the open area at the entrance of the alley.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, even if more and more people came to fight the fire, but because the fire was fueled by tung oil, and the best time to fight the fire was missed, the fire spread completely. At this moment, there is nothing we can do to control the fire. Minimize losses.

Someone rushed into the yard, trying to enter the warehouse to fight the fire, but was blocked by thick smoke. Finally, a group of people could only exit the yard and pour water inside, and no one dared to approach.

Zhu Hao sat there, pouted and pretended to be wronged, while watching the commotion.

Lu Song was originally in charge of fighting the fire, but at the back he could only make people stand on the firewall and use long poles and hemp pads to stop the sparks from flying, so as not to let the fire spread and burn to nearby houses.

More and more people came to the palace after hearing the news.

Among the high-level officials in the palace, Zhang Zuo, the eunuch of Fengzheng, arrived first.

When he saw Zhu Houcong lying on the ground, his knees were so frightened that his knees gave way. Fortunately, the followers behind helped him in time, otherwise he would have slumped on the ground.

"His Royal Highness..."

Zhang Zuo's reaction caught the craftsmen present by surprise.

It is well known that King Xing has only one son. The son is the future master of the palace, and he is their little master.

Although I have never met the little master, I know that I will rely on him to make a living in the future.

The person in front of him who was rescued by Zhu Hao is actually Prince Xing's son?
"Zhang Fengzheng, don't worry, I have checked, the son is fine, he just fell unconscious after choking on the smoke." Lu Song hurried over to comfort him.

Zhang Zuo cried out sadly to the sky: "God, which god killed it? Do you want me to make the palace a successor?"

Hou Chun, who had just arrived at the scene of the fire, and Li Shun, Jian Maoying, Daxi and others who had been on the scene earlier realized that something was wrong. Hou Chun looked around, walked over to Zhang Zuo and said, "Zhang Fengzheng, we have found out. , this fire is related to Zhu Hao!"

Zhang Zuo immediately yelled: "Take him down!"

Immediately, the guards from the Palace of Etiquette and Guards came over and held Zhu Hao down.

Zhu Hao said loudly: "I was the one who rescued the man from the fire, why should you accuse me?"

"what?"

Zhang Zuo instinctively believed that Zhu Hao was sent by a hostile force, and when his "own man" said that it was Zhu Hao who set the fire, he didn't need to think too much about it, and ordered to arrest him without any explanation.

But after hearing Zhu Hao's words, he suddenly became confused.

Think about it too, a child, will go to set fire?

Looking at Zhu Hao's clothes that were burnt to the point of being full of holes, and his whole body in black, it was obvious that he came out of the fire...

Will the person who set fire block himself in the fire?

Lu Songdao: "Zhu Hao saw the fire together with us. He rushed into the fire regardless of the danger and rescued the prince! Not only did he not do anything wrong, but he made a contribution."

Lu Song didn't have time to think about whether it was Zhu Hao who set the fire. Now he has to say that, in order to protect Zhu Hao, but also to protect himself.

What's more...

Lu Song didn't lie.

"Why the fire?"

Zhang Zuo questioned Hou Chun.

Hou Chun couldn't explain it, and Li Shun said, "Maybe the sky is dry and things are dry..."

Lu Song said: "Zhang Fengzheng, it's more important to put out the fire first, as long as the son is fine."

……

……

When the fire was almost burned, people began to enter the yard to fight the fire.

It is too late to remedy the situation.

Everything that could be burned in the warehouse was burnt down, leaving only the dark ruins on the scene.

Because they didn't know Zhu Houcong's situation, Zhang Zuo and others didn't move Zhu Houcong away immediately, but asked the invited doctor to make a careful diagnosis... Zhang Zuo had some knowledge, knowing that people were rescued from the disaster scene, and he was still a fragile child, so he Ground rescue is safer and more effective.

When Shi Yuan Zonggao, the chief of the palace, brought people, the fire was almost extinguished.

"Yuan Changshi, someone set fire on purpose!" Those who went in to check the fire scene first could naturally distinguish the difference between natural fire and artificial arson.

There is tung oil everywhere in it, and there are sporadic fires, and the fire did not start in the warehouse.

Yuan Zonggao glared at Zhu Hao first, full of anger.

The defense of the palace against Zhu Hao was all because of him. Just when he wanted to wrong Zhu Hao like others, Lu Song went to explain the situation in general.

"...I don't know why the fire started, but Zhu Hao was not inside at the time, and he rushed in after the fire broke out to rescue the prince."

It's not setting fire to harm people, it's saving people...

With Yuan Zonggao's wisdom, he was also confused for a while.

Yuan Zonggao said: "Why is the son here?"

"This……"

Lu Song couldn't answer.

"Who discovered the fire first?" Yuan Zonggao asked again.

Everyone looked around.

The maid who was the first to yell for the fire had already returned to the inner courtyard, and delicate and frail girls would not be involved in such things as fighting the fire.

Afterwards, most people looked at Jian Maoying.

Lu Song said: "When I came out, I saw the torch that was still smoking after being extinguished and fell to the ground. Jiang Maosun was standing there..."

Jian Mao's real name is Jiang Maosun, perhaps because his name is somewhat similar to Jian Mao's, that's why he is called Jian Mao's directly.

"Injustice...has nothing to do with me."

Jian Maoying was completely awake from the wine at this time, and hurriedly called Qu.

Someone immediately brought over the "criminal evidence" left in the corner, and when the torch was handed over to Yuan Zonggao, he frowned and looked at it, then threw the torch on the ground, because it gave off a disgusting smell.

One of the guards who was drinking with Lu Song said: "Jian Maoying, you still say you didn't do it? You say it out for fun. Not long after you came out, there was water here. How could it be such a coincidence?"

"correct."

The craftsmen who drank together at that time felt that this incident had something to do with Jian Maoying.

Jian Maoying defended: "The small one just urinates in the corner of the wall, but this thing fell on the top of his head. I think there is still a fire, and he pissed it out!"

He is completely "according to the facts", Jian Maozhen feels that he has never been so honest, but to outsiders, what he said is purely "nonsense".

You said you pissed yourself, but a burning torch appeared in front of you?Or did you piss it off?

Even a three-year-old would not believe it!

"Why did you set fire to me to death? When I was saving people inside, you still blocked the door... Woohoo, you are all bad guys!"

At this moment, Zhu Hao was crying while explaining the situation at that time.

Lu Songdao: "Yuan Changshi, after we discovered the fire, Jiang Maosun deliberately stopped me from rescuing him, saying that... he was going to burn people to death... once and for all..."

Originally, Jian Maoying still had a chance to prove his innocence.

But after the fire broke out, it is an indisputable fact that he blocked others from fighting the fire.

If the fire really has nothing to do with you, why do you want to prevent others from putting out the fire?It was also proposed by you Jian Maoying to lock people in the door and burn them to death. Even Li Shun and others dare not deny this.

There is a motive for setting the fire, and it is also true that people were blocked from putting out the fire. All the witnesses present, and the torch that was extinguished by him with a piss can be used as physical evidence.

Jian Maoying suddenly realized that he couldn't argue with a hundred words.
