Chen Guanlou found the injured Chen Guanfu among the collapsed ruins and dragged him out.

Chen Guanfu did not cooperate, "There are still people down there, we must rescue them. It is very important."

"It can't be the old emperor down there," Chen Guanlou said casually.

"It's not the old emperor. As expected, the old emperor has been rescued."

"In such a serious explosion, the old emperor did not die."

"It's not clear whether he's dead or not. It's too early now. You go rescue people first. I need to show up as soon as possible and take people into the palace. Go quickly. I will thank you deeply afterwards."

Thank you very much.

Chen Guanlou accepted his fate and saved others.

Chen Guanfu, surrounded by the guards of the Hou Mansion, killed several waves of assassins who blocked his way, and successfully left the scene of the explosion. He walked in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to deal with his injuries.

According to the list given by the big housekeeper, Chen Guanlou rescued several of them one after another.

Seeing the arrival of a large number of troops, he decisively evacuated. This place will soon be surrounded by imperial officers and soldiers, and not even a fly will be able to fly out.

As for the tortured King Daming, he found the torture frame and was already dead. His neck was cut off with a knife and he bled to death.

King Ming, who had completed his mission, was obviously of no use to the people behind the scenes. Death was the best destination.

He did not collect the corpse for King Ming, there would be officers and soldiers collecting the corpse.

He quickly left, far away from this criminal mess.

I went back to the Tianlao and told the people below to take good care of the Tianlao and not to be curious about the ups and downs outside. When the capital is in chaos, Tianlao can keep out all the wind and rain and ensure everyone's safety.

Stop saying that Tianlao is not good and that is not good. When it comes to saving lives, no yamen is more reliable than Tianlao.

He returned home, closed the door and took a shower to wash away the dust from his body.

Then he gave some money and asked Dawang from Chunxiang's sister-in-law's family to send a message to the eldest sister, telling her not to go out from today. Let her father-in-law Su Dacheng find any excuse to stop working at the city gate recently and seize the time to stock up on supplies. In the coming period, the capital will definitely not be peaceful, and fighting will definitely be unavoidable.

As expected, a large number of officers and soldiers will flock to the capital.

Once these officers and soldiers leave the military camp, discipline will become a decoration, and sooner or later they will cause harm to the capital. It's just like the time when the prince was deposed last year, or even more serious than the time when the prince was deposed.

At the same time, he asked Mrs. Chunxiang to take the money and quickly go to the streets to buy food. Buy as much as you can, and don't be afraid of not having enough money.

"I'll give you the money. Don't be reluctant to spend it. Call a few laborers and rent a car to pull as much as you can. In short, hurry up and buy food before most people can react. Even if the grain dealers take advantage of the opportunity, the price will rise. The price doesn’t matter. If you run out of money, you can still make money, but if you run out of food, you’re really doomed.”

Sister-in-law Chunxiang took the money and took the boys at home with her. They were all young men, capable of doing physical work and easy to handle. Went out. He didn't ask why, or what the earthquake-like roar was. It fully reflected his excellent qualities as a temporary worker in the Hou Mansion. He would follow orders perfectly at critical moments and would not ask too many questions.

Chen Guanlou hurried to Master Du's house again.

Master Du's eldest son and grandson were both there, and Chen Guanlou asked them to buy as much grain as they could, regardless of the price. If money is not enough, he has money here.

Boss Du continued to ask questions, but Master Du stopped him with a scolding, "If you are asked to buy food, go buy it as soon as possible. Don't waste time by asking questions. The capital is different from other places. You obey and do what you are told, no matter what. All strong.”

The eldest brother of the Du family stopped talking nonsense, took his money and son, found a car and hurried out.

Only then did Master Du have time to ask Chen Guanlou, "What happened? I heard a loud noise in the distance. I thought it was an earth dragon turning over, but in the end there was no movement in the house."

"The altar was blown up, and there was an assassination attempt at the scene. It was horrific and many people died. It is not yet clear who died specifically. There must have been some assassination attempts on the court ministers."

"Oh my god, oh my god..."

Du Fuzi shouted several times in a row, he was so anxious that he was spinning around. This is really the first time since the beginning of the world that someone dared to blow up the altar, and it was on the day of worshiping heaven.

"How did they do it? Who did it?"

Chen Guanlou shook his head, "I don't know who did it, everyone is suspected. Anyway, there must be an insider at the scene. The capital will be in chaos for a while.

Although, the territory of the Hou Mansion is definitely safe, and there should be no blind people coming to cause trouble. However, now is the lean season, and food has already risen a lot. Food will definitely be in short supply next, and prices will skyrocket.

Before most people react, we seize the time to stock up a batch, so that our life can be easier.

Don't count on relief food from the Hou Mansion. The prince of the Hou family will be very busy in the future and will have no time to take care of the affairs of the clan. Food from farms outside the city may not be transported in. Even if it is brought in, it must be guarded against being robbed by officers and soldiers. All in all, I am stronger than anything else. "

"Yes, yes, yes, hoarding supplies is better than anything else." Du Fuzi called the old servant, gave him a sum of money, and asked the old servant to quickly go to the street to buy dry food that could be stored, such as air-dried meat, air-dried chicken, and air-dried fish. . I also need to buy some oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar.

"There is also firewood. Let the merchants send a few carts over first. Buy some charcoal as well. Once the troops are in the capital, I am afraid that firewood from outside the city will not be able to come in. By then there will be rice and meat, but no firewood for cooking."

Master Du was very considerate.

The old servant didn't hesitate, took the money and went out immediately.

Master Du asked Chen Guanlou with concern, "Don't you need to buy?"

"I have food and drink in Tianlao, so it doesn't matter whether I stock up or not. The food and grass in Tianlao can at least meet the needs of half a year."

This is the advantage of being backed by the government office, and the government office that feeds prisoners will ensure that there are always enough supplies to eat for half a year. Moreover, when he brought back the news that the altar was bombed, the logistics staff of Tianlao had already arranged people to make large purchases in the city.

As a Tianlao person, you may lack everything, but you don't lack food or drink. The only thing to worry about is that you are afraid of being closed.

Tianlao has limited land, and the garbage and waste generated by eating, drinking, defecating and urinating cannot be removed in time. The environment and the smell... We suffered once last year, and it happened again this year.

It's really a bad year, and it's the year of Tai Sui.

The people in the capital are too miserable.

Chen Guanlou chatted with Master Du, and then notified the uncle in the clan. Hurry up and arrange for the clan members to rush to buy supplies. If it's too late, not only will the price rise, but there may also be a shortage of goods. The grain merchants in the capital are not kind people. If they don't take advantage of such a good opportunity to stock up, they will be unworthy of their status as merchants.

The eldest uncle in the clan was very grateful. When he heard the news before, he sent someone out to inquire, but there has been no reply so far. There is no news from the Marquis's Mansion either.

Fortunately, Chen Guanlou notified them in time, otherwise the whole clan would still be confused and could not figure out the situation.
