MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 502 Avoiding the loss of life
Chapter 502 Averted the loss of life
“Your Majesty, be careful!” The **** serving beside the emperor jumped on the emperor to protect his master with his body.
Du Wan picked up a chair with one hand and threw it hard.
I don’t know how she used her skill. The screen was knocked open by the chair, and the crisis was averted.
At this moment, Du Wan wanted to scold her.
Who is so stupid that he still puts up screens indoors during an earthquake? Don't you know it will fall? !
It's just that the earthquake made everyone dizzy.
There were sounds of collapse outside, one after another, as well as screams, cries, etc.
After more than ten breaths, the shaking stopped.
Everyone was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Wow!"
The little boy cried, breaking the silence.
The eldest princess finally came back to her senses, "Son?"
"Sister-in-law?" Prince Consort Du hugged his wife and children, "It's okay, it's okay. It's okay."
His voice was trembling when he said this.
Just now he saw his wife and child falling against the charcoal stove. He was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. Fortunately, his daughter acted quickly and rescued them. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.
Du Wan helped the emperor up and looked around again.
The queen immediately fell to the ground when she heard Du Wan's voice, so nothing happened. Qin Yuyu looked a little embarrassed. After Du Wan pulled her, he went to save the eldest princess, and then she fell directly and rolled twice on the ground when she was shaken.
The pieces of the teacup and teapot fell to the ground.
Du Wan helped her parents up again, "Mom and dad, are you hurt?"
"It's okay." The eldest princess gasped slightly when she answered.
Du Huima shook his head, "I'm fine too. Let's go out and take a look."
“Hmm.” The situation outside is not good.
Everyone in the tent heard a big noise outside, some were crying, and some were shouting for help.
The commander of the imperial army and the leader of the secret guard who came to their senses outside both rushed into the tent to rescue him. "I'm waiting for help to come too late. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"How is it outside now?" The emperor came back to his senses and strode out, "I'll go out and take a look."
Just after leaving the tent, the ground suddenly shook again.
Du Wan quickly reminded, "Uncle, there will be aftershocks, don't be careless!"
"I understand." The emperor turned around and responded, "Wanwan, take good care of your mother and brother."
"I will."
Du Wan nodded solemnly.
Recalling the critical scene before, she still felt frightened. I'm glad I wasn't careless and didn't leave my family.
Du Prince Consort half-carried the eldest princess and walked out. The eldest princess held the little kid who kept crying loudly. Du Wan naturally followed him outside.
Outside the tent, Grandma Wen and a few maids were guarding the tent. I was very excited when I saw that the masters were fine.
Aunt Wen even stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, let the old slave come and hold the young master."
“Thank you for your hard work, mama.”
The eldest princess was really frightened, so Aunt Wen took the child in her arms and coaxed her. This coaxing gesture was much more skillful than that of the eldest princess. In fact, this is normal. Children from wealthy families will have a bunch of servants to take care of them from birth, such as bathing, changing clothes, feeding, changing diapers, etc. Mothers rarely do it themselves.
Not to mention that the eldest princess has already given birth to three children. Even if she has a few more children, her experience in raising children will not be as good as that of the old grandmother.
The little kid let Aunt Wen coax him for a while, and he really stopped howling, but there were still tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and his big, watery eyes made him feel so soft.
Du Wan took a look and felt relieved when she learned that the little kid was okay. Then she helped the eldest princess to sit down on the stone steps not far away, "Father, you stay here with mother. I'll go check on the situation and help save her." people."
“Go.” Du Fuma said solemnly.
The situation around him was not good, and many houses in the palace collapsed. Fortunately, the emperor issued an order to prevent everyone from staying in the house for a long time unless there was anything going on, thus avoiding a large number of casualties.
Even though they lived in tents, people were still injured, and a few unlucky ones died. Either the tent collapsed, they fell to death, or were smashed to death. There were many different ways of death, and each one was different.
Two more tents were on fire, and the fires have not been extinguished yet. Fortunately, the distance between the tents was large enough, so there was no fear of the fire spreading.
The Praetorian Guards were busy rescuing people, and the emperor was commanding from the side. The imperial doctor was in a hurry to save the patient, and the medicine boys were bandaging the wound.
“Your Majesty, it’s great that you’re okay. I was so frightened to death just now.” Concubine Xie was like a delicate flower, fluttering into the emperor’s arms with her beauty turned pale.
The emperor patted her back gently to express comfort.
Seeing this, the Queen cursed in a low voice bitterly, "You vixen, you flirt in public, you have no shame..."
“…” Du Wan only blamed her hearing for being so good that she couldn’t listen even if she didn’t want to.
Within a quarter of an hour, two more aftershocks occurred, but they did not affect rescue operations.
It’s not dark yet, maybe it’s a blessing that we don’t have to rescue people in the dark, and the temperature will drop sharply at night.
Du Wan helped save people.
About that time, she explained to her parents and went back to the Princess Mansion. She was relieved to learn that only a few unlucky servants were injured in the Princess Mansion and no one was injured.
Only a third of the houses in the Princess Mansion collapsed and could no longer be inhabited, and a corner of a warehouse in Yulingyuan collapsed.
Du Wan should pay more attention to nothing, and asked the servants not to rush to clean up, and wait until the aftershock has completely passed before getting busy.
The most important thing is that people live.
"Princess, Prince Pei is fine. He is commanding the officers and soldiers of the Imperial City Division to rescue the people in Beicheng." The person who spoke was Chai Wei.
When Du Wan left the palace, she ordered her bodyguard to inquire about Pei Hao's well-being. "As long as he is fine, contact Zhuang Cong and ask him what the situation is over there. Are there any casualties?"
“Yes, Princess.”
Chai Wei turned around and went to do his work.
Du Wan called another personal guard and asked him to check the room registration, but he didn't know the status of the room registration. Since the emperor issued the decree, she asked Du Dakang to sell out the entertainment newspaper and give all employees a holiday and not stay in the house.
The guard came back to report that there was nothing wrong with the bookstore. It was just that the bookshelf in the store had fallen over and there was some damage, but the problem was not serious.
Du Wan felt a lot more at ease after learning about the situation outside one by one.
In this disaster, the emperor intervened in advance and issued the imperial edict forcefully. Out of respect for the imperial power and the imperial edict, not many people dared to disobey the imperial edict. Ordinary people miraculously survived a lot, but some wealthy families had their houses collapsed and were crushed to death. people.
If such a natural disaster had happened before, people would have been devastated and crying would have been everywhere. It's not a good time either, but most people lose money.
“Wanwan! It’s great that you’re okay!” Qin Jiu learned that she was returning home and hurried over.
Du Wan smiled and said, "What can happen to me? How is your family? Are there any casualties?"
"Many people were injured, and three servants died. They should not have died, but they sneaked into the house and were lucky. No, they died in an accident..."
Qin Jiu chatted for a long time, basically explaining the affairs of the Duke of Qin's palace clearly.
ps, the Spring Festival is approaching, the update time is uncertain, sorry.
