Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 377 Found it

"It must have been two or three hours since we fell down? After tossing around for so long, I'm so hungry that I'm panicking."

"Yeah! I haven't had a drop of water, I'm really tired."

There was no light in this small hole in the past, so it can be seen that the outside may not be the Gongyuan, but it may be another secret room.

Su Yizhao's heart sank, but he didn't say it.Now everyone is hanging by a glimmer of hope. If they learn that the Shimen is still a secret room, they may completely collapse.

Is it true that there is only one hand to exit, and the others are used to confuse people?

Su Yizhao touched Acacia, "Acacia! You should be able to get through this small hole, right? Help us go and see."

Acacia didn't delay, and rushed out immediately.

Su Yijue's heart is also a little heavy, he understands what Su Yizhao means.

"Everyone, take a rest where you are, and find out if there is any other way out later."

In fact, Su Yizhao didn't need to say, they were already sitting lifelessly on the ground.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Acacia returned.

"The outside is blocked by big rocks, it seems to have collapsed! But going outside, it seems that it was originally a secret room. I took a look, and there was a stone step above it."

"Stone steps?" Su Yizhao immediately thought of the exit, the stone steps are for climbing out.

"What about the stone steps? Is it sealed?" Su Yizhao asked immediately.

"Yeah! When I reached the top of the stone steps, I couldn't get out."

From this point of view, there is an exit on the stone steps, maybe it needs to be activated by the mechanism, or it just needs to be opened by itself.

But lovesickness is not a human being, so it cannot be pushed away.

From this point of view, moving rescue soldiers is the most effective way.Zong Zeming was outside, but he must not be close to them, otherwise Zong Zeming would not be able to hear them shouting so loudly.

"Xiangsi, go and have a look. There is no way to get out? You don't have to take the stone steps. Maybe there is a small hole next to it? After being burned by fire, it will definitely collapse."

Since there is a collapse here, it means that it was still affected by the fire on the ground.

Acacia immediately ran out again, Su Yizhao felt sorry for its paws, but now it can only rely on Acacia.

Xiangsi went all the way to the steps, and then looked around.

When it sees a gap, it goes in, but after drilling several places, it runs into a wall and returns.

Xiangsi yelled bitterly, then found a small hole and got in.

It didn't know how long it had been drilling. When it saw the long-lost light, it squinted its eyes and was immediately overjoyed.

He called around a few times, and after a while, three mouse brothers ran over.

A fire not only killed many people, but also burned many animals that had no time to escape.

The only three remaining are considered lucky.

There was a squeak towards them, and the three immediately dispersed. Xiangsi glanced behind her, and then rushed out quickly.

When it rushed to the original place, it found that the two were still waiting there, and it was immediately delighted.

The guard watched Xiangsi running over from another place, and gestured at him for a while, and immediately understood its intention.

"Follow it!" The guard yelled at the scar-faced man behind him, and then ran after Xiangsi.

They ran all the way to the big kitchen in the Gongyuan, and Xiangsi rushed into the utility room in the original big kitchen.

The fire burned through the kitchen, and the utility room was also burned badly.

The guard and the scar-faced man went around the utility room, and finally found the anomaly in the corner.

……

"Su Aiqing, don't worry, I will definitely give you justice in this matter."

The emperor stepped forward to help Su Jinxun himself, but Su Jinxun shook his head and refused.

The emperor's face froze, but he calmed down.

"Your Majesty! Although there are many males in the court, there are very few promising ones. Su Yizhao and Su Yijue are the children with high hopes in the court. They shoulder the heavy responsibility of the family."

Su Jinxun's expression was firm, "The ministers lost their beloved grandsons, and there are still two. Please also ask the emperor to severely punish the officials of the Ministry of Rites who participated in the spring. Wang Deng of the Ministry of Rites bears the brunt of it, and must pay the price for it."

"Su Jinxun! Don't be ignorant of good and bad, the emperor has already given you enough face, what else do you want?"

Wang Deng, who was kneeling by the side, was very anxious. In fact, he was also prepared, and the demotion was inevitable.

But if Su Jinxun keeps pestering her, then she won't even be able to retire and return home.

"Why do you still have the face to say these words? The family members of those candidates are still beating the drums outside to sue the imperial court. Ask them, will they let it go?"

Su Jinxun looked at Wang Deng mockingly, "I should never be forgiven for wasting so many lives for my own selfishness."

"Those old people lost their beloved sons, those women lost their husbands, and those young children lost their fathers. How innocent are they? How will they survive in the future? How will they continue?"

Su Jinxun pointed at Wang Deng and complained angrily.

"Eight people in 290! How can you be so devoid of conscience and watch them die?"

Su Jinxun was already in tears as he said that, they said, "The death of so many young talents is a loss to the imperial court! They are all qualified as candidates, and the excellent talents selected from various places in this dynasty are just at the time when the emperor employs them. What are you to blame for?"

As he spoke, a gleam burst out of his eyes.

"If you change to a minister, the minister will immediately use three feet of white silk to comfort the souls of the dead, and live without face in the world."

Su Jinxun's words were not insignificant, even the emperor was taken aback.

"Su Jinxun, don't stand and talk without pain in your back. In the situation at that time, if it were you, how would you choose?"

Wang Deng was so angry that he spit all over the place, isn't it difficult for him?
"The lives of so many people in the city will even affect the palace. Tell me, how do you choose?"

"The matter has come to this point, and it is what I should do to minimize casualties. You are doing it for your own selfishness, disregarding the lives of the people in the city."

Looking at the red-eyed two arguing, the emperor couldn't help but feel a splitting headache.

"Don't use such an excuse to cover up your timidity. Even if the dragon gate was opened at that time, the fire could be quickly controlled. You can also call the nearby people to prepare early and fight the fire spontaneously. As long as you are prepared, the firefighters There will be more."

Su Jinxun took a breath, and continued: "You are timid and fearful, which led to such disastrous consequences. It is your incompetence that caused so many people to die."

Wang Deng was so angry that he pointed at Su Jinxun and yelled, "You fart! You're just making excuses."

As he spoke, he turned his head and cried to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the fire was originally under control, but the sudden wind fueled the fire, which was not done by human beings. What's more, the situation was critical at that time. How could there be time to prepare so much? It was just an instant effort, and it was out of control."

"Before then, you should have opened the dragon gate and arranged for people to go in to put out the fire, but you stood by and watched. It's all because of your negligence, and you still want to shirk?"

Su Jinxun insisted on pulling Wang Deng down today, and even wanted to fool him, don't even think about it.
