Chapter 443: Disaster

There are many palaces in the Forbidden City, although the Ministry of Internal Affairs sends people to repair them every year, but it is impossible for all palaces to be repaired in place, just some important places.

Yin Zhen asked about the situation of Cining Palace and Chengqian Palace one by one, and when he learned that they were all safe, he breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered Sixi to dig up all the collapsed places in the Forbidden City, as well as the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards, in order to rescue the people who were crushed below.

Sixi agreed, but did not retreat immediately, but looked at Yinzhen carefully, he was brought out by Li Dequan, and the latter knew at a glance that he must have not finished speaking, glared at him and whispered: "If you have anything to say, say it quickly, don't say the previous sentence and hold back the next sentence." ”

Hearing this, Sixi hurriedly kowtowed and whispered: "Your Majesty, the eastern half of the Fengxian Palace...... collapsed. ”

"What?" Hearing the collapse of the Fengxian Palace, Yinzhen's heart was immediately shocked, and his face was gloomy, and Sixi hurriedly added: "Before the slave came, he had ordered everyone to do their best to remove the tablets enshrined in the Fengxian Palace, and ...... at this moment."

Before he finished speaking, there was already a gust of wind around him, and there was still the shadow of Yinzhen in front of him, Li Dequan hurriedly followed, and when he passed Sixi, he saw that he was still stunned and knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Don't follow up quickly." ”

Sixi reacted at this time, and hurriedly followed the two out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, in fact, there was a small area of collapse in the corners of the Heart Cultivation Palace, but Yin Zhen couldn't care about it at this time, and only went to the Fengxian Palace, where there was a tablet for Eniang, and he didn't want Eniang to be disturbed in the spirit of the sky.

Fengxian Hall is on the east side of the Forbidden City, Yinzhen ran all the way, Li Dequan could keep up at first, but the old arms and legs behind him couldn't catch up, so he could only be hung in the back by Sixi.

Along the way, everyone I saw was uncertain, with endless trepidation, and just when I had already seen the Fengxian Hall, the ground shook again, and this time it was more beneficial than the previous one.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Seeing Yinzhen swaying in front, Li Dequan didn't know where he got the strength, shook off Sixi's hand, ran forward in three steps and two steps to support Yinzhen, and grabbed the tree next to him with the other hand to stabilize his body.

But the disaster had just begun, and the strong tremor made the trees that were originally rooted in the soil loose, and even the ground was uplifted and cracked, and a huge crack stretched out, and instantly reached the feet of several people, Li Dequan was so frightened that his face turned green, and he saw the crack attacking, and he even forgot to avoid it, or Yinzhen reacted quickly, and shouted: "Let go!" ”

Li Dequan subconsciously let go of the hand holding the trunk, and the next moment, he felt that the whole person rose into the air, and was pulled aside by Yinzhen forcefully, which was enough to swallow him, and the four joys behind him also rolled and avoided it, but the eunuchs and palace maids behind were not so lucky, and fell into the huge crack in the miserable howl.

The shaking of the ground has not stopped, it must be undulating, and with it the sound of the palace collapsing not far away, and the uproar is terrifying just by listening to it. Yinzhen has been lying on the ground all the time, and running at this moment is undoubtedly killing himself, but they are outside at the moment, and this is an open place, so they don't need to worry about being crushed by the collapsed palace, they just need to avoid the fallen trees.

The shock lasted for a long time, and the crack in the ground stopped expanding in the shock wave, and then it was pressed to close and even arch, as if an invisible hand was squeezing.

When the earthquake stopped, Yinzhen wiped his face and got up, and when he looked around, he saw that the palace, which was originally good, had collapsed most of it at the moment, and it was full of devastation.

Li Dequan also stood up with a disgraced face, and when he fell down, his forehead accidentally hit the sharp stone on the ground, and he broke a hole and kept bleeding down, which looked very scary.

"Your Majesty, how are you, Your Majesty?" Li Dequan couldn't take care of himself at all, he only looked at Yinzhen nervously, if something happened to the emperor, he, the chief administrator of the Great House, would not be enough to compensate for dying ten times or eight times.

"I'm fine." Yin Zhen casually agreed, remembering the Fengxian Palace, and ran over quickly, when he saw the situation of the Fengxian Hall from a distance, his heart suddenly sank, the entire Fengxian Hall collapsed, the ruins and ruins of the wall, and could not find a good place, and there was a cry for help in the ruins of the ruined wall, thinking that many people were pressed underneath, and those palace people who were lucky enough to escape were digging hard, trying to save people.

Sixi, who was running behind Yinzhen, was also dumbfounded when he saw this situation, lest Yinzhen think that he was reporting indiscriminately, and stammered and explained: "The emperor ...... Your Majesty, when the slaves saw it before, Fengxian Hall was still ...... It's not like this yet......"

Yin Zhen didn't pay attention to him at all, he didn't even look at it, all his thoughts were on the Fengxian Hall that was not restored, and he walked towards the Fengxian Hall stiffly, all ...... All the shrine tablets were pressed underneath, including the ...... of Huang Ama and Eniang

When the palace people saw Yinzhen coming, they knelt down in the ruins and saluted, Yinzhen looked at all this in a daze, his eyes gradually condensed a little focus, and then shouted loudly: "Li Dequan!" ”

"The minions are here!" Li Dequan wiped the blood on his face and ran to Yinzhen's side to wait for his orders.

Yin Zhen pointed to the pile of ruins and said word by word: "Call someone to dig up here, be sure to invite all the tablets of the ancestors intact, if one is destroyed, I am the only one who asks." ”

"Slaves obey!" Li Dequan hurriedly agreed, and called a few palace people to order them to quickly transfer the manpower and dig up this Fengxian Hall first.

"Four joys!" After saying this, Yinzhen turned his gaze to Sixi again, "Hurry up and find out the damage and casualties in the palace, especially the Cining Palace and the East and West Six Palaces, and don't miss anything." ”

Sixi knew that the situation was urgent, and he didn't dare to slack off, just when he turned around and was about to leave, a clear and beautiful figure hurriedly walked here, and when he looked at it, it was Ling Ruo.

As early as when the first earthquake occurred, Ling Ruo was worried about Yinzhen's safety, and asked Shui Xiu to help her go to the Heart Cultivation Palace, but when she got there, she learned that Yinzhen went to Fengxian Hall and came here again. When the second earthquake happened, she happened to walk near a pavilion, Shui Xiu panicked and wanted to go to the pavilion to take refuge, but was pulled by Ling Ruo to an open place, she remembered a book she saw before that it was said that it was most taboo to hide in the house during the earthquake, it was easy to be pressed underneath, and it was far less safe than an open place.

It was true that the pavilion collapsed in the earthquake, but they were standing in the open field unharmed.

As soon as the second earthquake stopped, Ling Ruo couldn't wait to rush to Fengxian Hall again, the capital had not been hit by an earthquake for more than a hundred years, not to mention such a strong earthquake, she was really worried that something would happen to Yinzhen.
