"Go find Xie Yu right away and ask him to send 3,000 patrol soldiers to surround the scene and not let anyone in.

The first thing the prince thought of in panic was to cover up his crime.

"Well"

"The patrol camp had already gone, but the people from the Jingzhao government arrived first."

"Now even the people from Prince Jing's mansion have arrived. Even if we force them to leave, Your Highness, this matter can no longer be concealed!"

The official of the Eastern Palace said helplessly.

"I can't hide it anymore. I can't hide it anymore."

"Come, prepare the car."

The prince hurried out, ready to go to the harem to see Concubine Yue.

The explosion site.

The area within a kilometer radius was burned black.

Countless soldiers carried bloody corpses to the side.

The surroundings were filled with the wailing of the people and the crying of children.

Mei Changsu and Li Gang walked over.

Looking at the tents and cooking places that had been set up nearby, as well as the corpses covered with white cloth and the diffuse smoke, he suddenly felt unbearable in his heart.

"Stop, no outsiders are allowed to enter here"

"What do you do?"

Outside, many patrol soldiers were guarding various places and stopped Mei Changsu from entering.

"I'm looking for him."

Mei Changsu looked at Lie Zhanying, the deputy general of Prince Jing, who was patrolling inside.

The patrol battalion turned around and looked. At first, they naturally didn't know Lie Zhanying, but now, of course, they knew that he was a general of Prince Jing's mansion.

""Go in."

The patrol soldiers made way for them.

Mei Changsu led Li Gang inside.

"Mr. Su!"

Lie Zhanying clasped his fists and said

"General Lie!"

""Where is His Royal Highness Prince Jing?"

Mei Changsu looked around and asked.

"Inside, he was investigating the private gun room that exploded."Lie Zhanying pointed to the depths and said.

At this time, Xiao Jingli brought Yan Yujin, Jin Hu Jin Bao, and a hundred soldiers to rush over.

But coincidentally, Ni Huang also arrived with the soldiers of the Yunnan Palace.

"Meet His Majesty the King!"

""Meet the princess!"

The soldiers of the outer patrol camp shouted, and then hurriedly asked people to make way.

Nihuang turned over and got off the horse.

Xiao Jingli and Yan Yujin walked down from the spacious and luxurious six-horse carriage.

"Your Majesty, King Ming, Yu Jin!"

"You guys are here too?"

Ni Huang asked in surprise

"Yu Jin and I were fishing in the palace when the explosion happened, so we came to take a look."Xiao Jingli smiled and said

"Sister Nihuang."Yan Yujin smiled and greeted.

Several people walked in together.

As soon as they came in, they saw Mei Changsu and others inside.

"Meet His Majesty the King!"

"Meet the princess!"

Everyone bowed and said

""No need to be polite."

Xiao Jingli waved his hand and looked around.

He took in all the tragic scenes around him.

"Mr. Su"

"Mr. Su!"

Xiao Jingli and Nihuang nodded and greeted him.

"The Yunnan Palace has sent some useful things, go and receive them."Nihuang said to Zhan Ying. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"It just so happens that the Ming Palace has also sent some doctors and supplies, so let's go there."Xiao Jingli said

"Yes!"

Lie Zhanying led his men outside.

Not long after they walked in, they saw Prince Jing coming out of the burned house.

"Your Highness"[]

"Princess"

"Your Highness Prince Jing."

Everyone saluted each other.

"You are here too?"Prince Jing looked at Xiao Jingli

"Why, can't I come here?"Xiao Jingli asked back

"That's not the case, but haven't you always been oblivious to what's happening outside?" Prince Jing asked in confusion.

"Haha, even if you turn a deaf ear to what's happening outside, it can't beat the thunder that resounds between heaven and earth."Xiao Jingli looked around and said

"Too"

"This thunderous roar can be said to have resounded throughout Jinling."

After saying this, Prince Jing looked at Mei Changsu and said,"Mr. Su is here too?"

Mei Changsu looked at the tragic scene around him and said sadly,"It is really too tragic to see such a scene in the capital of Daliang!"

"Is it tragic?"

"But it was only a few hundred casualties and a long street of houses."

Before Xiao Jingli finished speaking, he felt everyone looking at him in disbelief.

"In the territory of Daliang, there have been many things that were a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand times more tragic than this. When have they not happened?"

"I just came to take a look and bring some supplies. I won't get in the way here. Yujin, let's go back."

""Let's go."

Xiao Jingli finished speaking and walked towards the carriage with Yan Yujin.

Thanks to Luowang, Xiao Jingli knew better than most how Daliang had survived these years. There were many famines, and hundreds of thousands of people were displaced.

The disaster relief money was embezzled by everyone from the Crown Prince Yu to the local officials. The people had no choice but to eat dirt and grass. When they had no grass left, they had to eat their own children. These things were all reported by Luowang truthfully.

There were even people in Luowang who were proficient in painting and drew these scenes for him.

That was the first time Xiao Jingli felt what natural disasters and man-made disasters were, and what eating one's own children was.

And those people who wanted to survive, gathered together directly. The people rebelled, and in the end, tens of thousands of people were ruthlessly massacred.

It was only because Luowang was powerful that they took away many people, otherwise, after several disasters, I am afraid that more people would have been killed! More people died!

And these.

Aren’t they a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times more tragic than here!

Mei Changsu, Prince Jing, and Nihuang sighed as they watched Xiao Jingli leave.

The three of them thought that Xiao Jingli was talking about the 70,000 Red Flame Army that Mei Ling had massacred that year, but they didn’t know that Xiao Jingli was talking about the people of Daliang!

There was silence at the scene for a moment.

Prince Jing looked at the rows of corpses covered with white cloth in the distance:"They are all hardworking little people. Who would have thought that there would be a black fire warehouse next door to their home?"

"It's really a matter of time and fate. If only I could live one more day!"

"One more day?" Nihuang asked puzzledly,"What if one more day?"

Prince Jing explained,"Lord Shen from the Ministry of Revenue told me yesterday that he has submitted a memorial to Your Majesty, requesting that the Jingzhao Yinfu assist in sealing up this private gun room."

"He told me confidently that the imperial edict would come down within a day or two."

"did not expect.........The memorial was submitted only one day ago, and such a tragic accident happened."

Nihuang couldn't help sighing again when she heard this:"It's really fate, it's such a pity that they died."

Mei Changsu shook his head.

Prince Jing asked,"What do you mean, Mr. Su?"

Mei Changsu asked back,"Your Highness, do you really think this is an accident?"

After this, Prince Jing and Nihuang looked at Mei Changsu in shock.

Could such a tragedy be man-made?
