Chapter 192 Stampede Incident
"Don't be chaotic! Stand still! Stand still!" The stern voice resounded through the street, as if it had magical powers, and the people who were still in a panic just now gradually calmed down.

Only some people who ran out from the direction of the fire were still in a panic, but they calmed down slowly under Qiu Yushu's comfort.

Shangguan Lianniang was standing on the second floor watching all of this, looking at Qiu Yushu with eyes full of admiration.

This is the courage that Prime Minister Xi Cang should have.

"Listen to me, today is the Lantern Festival. There are too many people on the street. You will only cause casualties. There is only a little fire over there. If you evacuate in an orderly manner, the fire will not spread like this Fast!"

Perhaps with Qiu Yushu's reminder, several people suddenly found the "corpse" at their feet.Some were still moaning, but some... hadn't breathed.

Seeing someone die, the people calmed down completely and listened to Qiu Yushu's arrangement.

It has to be said that Qiu Yushu has a convincing power, even though he only said a few words, these people are willing to believe him.It really is the youngest prime minister in Xi Cang, just this bearing is enviable.

Seeing that the scene was temporarily stabilized, Shangguan Lianniang didn't stay any longer, and went straight to the government office.

There are too many people at the Lantern Festival, and Qiu Yushu alone is not enough. Officials are needed to maintain order here, otherwise there will be chaos!

Fortunately, the government office of Tianmen City is not far from here, and because today's lantern festival is quite special, the government office also sent people out to inspect it, just for fear of accidents.

Now there are officials there to put out the fire, and the rest of the people rushed towards this side after hearing about the situation here, Shangguan Lianniang hadn't even arrived at the government office when they met the officials who came out.

After briefly explaining the situation to the official, Shangguan Lianniang followed the official back to the scene.

There was no other way, there was another Qiu Yushu there, and there was no way Shangguan Lianniang would let Qiu Yushu stay there.

After a cup of tea, Shangguan Lianniang followed the official messenger back to the riotous street.

Because of Qiu Yushu's reassurance, the crowd was much quieter and began to evacuate in an orderly manner.Those who were pushed to the ground, as long as they still have a breath, they will be lifted up by others and walk slowly step by step.As for those who died, these ordinary people didn't have the guts to take the corpse away.

It's just that this situation has not been maintained for long, and I don't know what the people who put out the fire are doing for food, so they let the fire spread.

Under the raging flames, and the speed of evacuation was too slow, some people couldn't wait and started to make trouble again.

Fortunately, the government officials came in time and brought the situation under control before the crowd rioted.With the help of the officials, the evacuation of the crowd was faster, and these people did not dare to complain anymore.

Seeing that the people were fine, Shangguan Lianniang jumped onto the high platform and carefully brought Qiu Yushu down from above.

Standing on such a high place for such a long time, Qiu Yushu's face did not even change.But when he saw the people who were trampled to death, Qiu Yushu showed an expression of intolerance.

Obviously, the Lantern Festival is a lively event, so why did people die?
After this incident, Qiu Yushu might have a shadow on the Lantern Festival!

Without staying any longer, Shangguan Lianniang directly took Qiu Yushu back to the inn. At this moment, Ye Yuan and Zhou Mi were standing at the entrance of the inn, looking worriedly at the street in front of the inn.

Seeing the two came back, Ye Yuan and Zhou Mi immediately stepped forward and stood in front of them respectively, and they were relieved when they saw that there was nothing wrong with them.Especially Zhou Mi, who sized up Qiu Yushu several times, God knows how worried he was in this short period of time.I didn't see Qiu Yushu when I came back just now. If it wasn't for Yeyuan, he might have gone out to find someone again.

After they returned to the inn to take a bath, they began to rest. Same as before, Yeyuan and Shangguan Lianniang shared a room, and Qiu Yushu and Zhou Mi shared a room.

As for the fire and stampede outside, they are beyond their control.Shangguan Lianniang has no status, and she doesn't want to care about it.And Qiu Yushu's coming out this time can be regarded as a subdued service, and he doesn't intend to reveal his identity.

In this way, it is inconvenient for both of them to investigate at this time.With Fu Yin around, they don't need to worry about these things.

It was only the next day that they knew that this matter was not that simple, because officers and soldiers came to the inn where they were staying the next day, specifying that Qiu Yushu and Shangguan Lianniang should go to the government office, saying that they had something to ask them. for proof.

Qiu Yushu is only a commoner now, so he couldn't refuse, so he followed.In this way, Shangguan Lianniang naturally couldn't refuse.As for Ye Yuan and Zhou Mi, they were left behind, if something happened, it would be nice to have someone to take care of them.

Because of this incident, Shangguan Lianniang had to give up her original plan to pick thousand-year-old clematis today.

Outside the Tianmen City Yamen, many people somehow surrounded them, and there was a man kneeling in the courtroom.As soon as the man saw Shangguan and Lianniang coming in, he pointed at Qiu Yushu with an excited expression on his face.

"It's her! My lord, she is the one who set people on fire!" It was a skinny middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and he didn't look like a good person.

Of course, from what he said, it also proved that he is not a good person.

Shangguan Lianniang and Qiu Yushu only came to Tianmen City yesterday, but today they were framed for setting fire to it, and the people behind this may have followed them all along.In other words, all of this was planned, just waiting for them to arrive in Tianmen City.

Perhaps without this Lantern Festival, there would be other charges that could be placed on Shangguan Lianniang's head.

But Shangguan Lianniang didn't understand that she didn't seem to offend anyone in Xi Cang, even though she knew that He Lianjue had found out her identity, He Lianjue would not use this method to deal with her, the general's wife.

In this way, the main messenger behind the scenes can only be other people from Xi Cang.

But who is this person?Shangguan Lianniang couldn't think of it for a while.

Ignoring the skinny man's yelling, Shangguan Lianniang knelt down and saluted Fu Yin like a gentleman.In this regard, Qiu Yushu, who was born as a poor scholar, naturally would not stick to such small details, and then knelt down beside Shangguan Lianniang.

Perhaps the attitude of the two of them is very good, and perhaps the two of them don't look like the arsonist, Fu Yin's face is not so ugly.

Looking at the tops of the two people's heads, Fu Yin didn't ask them to get up, but said: "Unreasonable people, can you plead guilty?"

Knowing that the question was nonsense, Fu Yin still said it.There is no way, someone is pressing above, even if this matter is false, he will make it true.

Faced with Fu Yin's attack, Shangguan Lianniang and Qiu Yushu looked at each other, and finally Shangguan Lianniang said: "Master Fu Yin, we don't know what crime we have committed, please let me know."

Seeing this, Fu Yin was very annoyed, so he asked the skinny man to repeat what happened before.
