Chapter 508 I shouldnt let him provide disaster relief

My son wants to go to the princesss mansion. Pei Hao stopped at the door.

The Duke of Zhen Guo reminded, "On New Year's Eve in previous years, the masters of the Princess Mansion would go back to their old residence in Dujia Village. If you go to the Princess Mansion at this time, you won't see anyone. Besides, I can get the news, and the Du family will only be better than me." Earlier.

Pei Hao stopped and turned around, Then, shall I go out of the city?

Forget it, you can take a trip. The Duke of Zhen relented. When encountering this matter, he always had to tell him. He knew that his son would not be able to feel at ease if he stayed in the house unless he made this trip.

Pei Hao got his father's approval, turned around and left in large strides, "Hu San, order people to prepare horses and leave the city for Dujiacun."

As ordered. Hu San ran out first.

Pei Hao went back to Tingyu Residence, picked up a cloak and sword, and hurried out of the house. The group of people from the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion had to go out of the city in the cold during the Chinese New Year, which was very noticeable.

This news flew to every government office in the capital like snowflakes.

The person Pei Hao thinks about most on the road is his little girl.

She and Du Qian had a deep relationship, and she couldn't imagine what a heavy blow Du Qian's sudden death would be to her.

Whenever he thought of the little girl crying sadly, his heart felt as if something was grabbing him, making him extremely uncomfortable. However, he didn't know that the little girl he longed for was already on her way to the north.

The same news appeared one after another in the evening in the emperor's palace and the Dingbei Hou Mansion, as well as in the study rooms of major forces in the capital.

The news of Du Qian's death was like an earthquake, causing a huge shock in the capital.

The emperor stood up suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face, "How could-"

After a long time, he fell weakly on the dragon chair and murmured, "I was the one who harmed him. I shouldn't have let him go to the disaster relief. I shouldn't have let him go..."

"Your Majesty, my condolences. This is a natural disaster and an accident." The chief steward quickly comforted him, hoping that the emperor would take care of his health and not be overly sad.

No matter what happens in the capital.

Du Wan used his lightness skills to the extreme and was faster than the best horses in the Qin Kingdom.

With normal people's eyes, they only feel a shadow passing by, and then disappearing in an instant, just like a shooting star in the sky, so fast that people just think it is an illusion or dazzling.

Ever since she separated from Prince Consort Du, Du Wan has been on the road.

Even though it got dark, he didnt stop.

Occasionally, I will stop to confirm whether the route is correct.

Du Wan chose to take the shortest way, over the mountains and ridges.

Until the next day, when the sky was bright, we arrived at the boundary of Guangluo County. It takes ordinary people four or five days to travel, but Du Wan arrived in less than twelve hours.

When I came to Guangluo County, I saw ruins.

There are still some people walking among the ruins, looking for things in the ruins.

Du Wan couldn't describe the tragedy he saw, but his eyes felt sour.

The earthquake also caused the ground to collapse, causing disasters that doubled. It is said that of the more than 100,000 people in Guangluo County, not even a fraction of them survived.

Princess? A man in his early twenties stepped forward.

Du Wan looked at him, "Who are you?"

My subordinate Du Siqi. In order to prove his identity, Du Siqi took out an identity card.

Du Wan took it and looked through it.

She has seen this kind of card before, so she can be sure that he is from the Du family.

Du Wan asked: "What are you doing here? Is there any news about my elder brother?"

Du Siqi said respectfully: "I am here to wait for someone from the clan. I have sent people to look for the whereabouts of the prince. There is no news yet."

Where is the location, have you confirmed it? Du Wan asked, suppressing the anxiety in her heart.

Du Siqi said: "We arranged for people to dig out the yard where the prince stayed, and only found the bodies of some personal guards, but not the prince. We are expanding the scope of the search."

Take me there.

"Yes." Du Siqi led the way.

Du Wan followed closely behind.

The two people walked through the ruins, and after a while, they came to one of them.

This is obviously a large mansion, the residence of a wealthy family.

When Du Wan came over, there was a large group of people digging into the houses that were sunk deep into the ground.

Du Wan's consciousness swept across this area. There were hundreds of people here.

Du Siqi said: "These people are all arranged by the clan."

In other words, these people were the ones who were immediately arranged to rescue Du Qian when the nearby Du family forces learned that something happened on Du Qian's side. Unfortunately, they rescued a few but not Du Qian, and they still don't know Du Qian's whereabouts. . They were transferred from outside the county, and they didn't know Du Qian's whereabouts.

There are so many people dead in the county that it is hard to find even a clue.

Du Wans eyes turned red.

In this area of Guangluo County, an earthquake occurred before the imperial edict was conveyed. For the people here, this natural disaster came suddenly and there was no chance of escape.

In fact, the people who dig are aware of it.

What has been excavated in the past two days are basically corpses, not a single living person. Even if they are found next, they will probably be corpses...

In Du Siqi's eyes, Du Wan turned around here and shed tears.

There is no breath of life underground!

No!

Du Wan stared at Du Siqi with red eyes, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Are you sure that my eldest brother was in this house when the earthquake happened?"

"The princess wants to know the details, you can ask Du Shiyi." Du Siqi was arranged to wait outside for people from the clan, and the following news was not clear.

Du Wan said: "Take me to see him."

"yes."

Everyone has come here, and it is not difficult to meet the person in charge of the search.

Without a cup of tea, an ordinary-looking man in his thirties strode over until Du Wan stopped in front of him, bent down and saluted, "I pay my respects to the princess."

Are you Du Shiyi? Du Wan looked at the person coming.

Du Shiyi said respectfully: "That's right, I am."

"Tell me the situation to this princess. I want everything." Du Wan suppressed the grief in her heart.

Du Shiyi lowered his head and began to report.

The news that Du Qian was in Guangluo County is certain, and his whereabouts are not a secret. This snowstorm was the most severe in Guangluo County. Du Qian came over and immediately carried out relief work. At first, he was outside and had not yet entered the city. He only entered Guangluo County the day before the earthquake.

This time there were many people accompanying him, and they were all arranged in the residence just now.

When the disaster strikes, it is almost dark, and it is extremely cold in the north. Generally, people rarely go out at that time and will hide at home to keep warm.

Because of this disaster, very few people escaped.

Du Shiyi ordered people to dig here, but he also searched in other places.

The longer this goes on, the slimmer the hope of survival becomes.

Du Wan could not accept this reality, her face turned pale, "There is no living person underground in this house."

Princess? Du Shiyi was surprised.

Du Wan shed tears, looked around again, choked up and asked, "Are you really sure that my eldest brother is missing in Guangluo County?"

"Yes."
