Chapter 442 How Much Love Deepens the Mandarin Alliance 1
Tong Qi has never seen such a battle, but in the blink of an eye, the crowd on the long street suddenly became chaotic, and the place where they were standing was only a few steps away from the place where the lantern fell. , Tong Qi was pushed back by the crazy crowd.He squeezed forward desperately, looking for Yuan Zhao with his eyes open, but Yuan Zhao who was still in front of him just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Cold sweat broke out all of a sudden, Tong Qi's feet were so soft that he almost fell to his knees.

Where a large number of people gather, accidents happen suddenly, and the stampede caused by the panicked escape of the crowd is definitely enough to make people feel extreme fear.At this moment, don't say that Tong Qi is a son of the Duke's Mansion, even if the crown prince is here at this moment and there are not enough guards around him, he will definitely not be able to suppress the panic.

When Yue Huaiyi heard the voice coming from the receiver, he didn't take it seriously at first, but it was too close to the street, and the sound mixed with fear and crying hit his eardrums, so he stood up abruptly, There seems to be something wrong outside.Not knowing what happened, he grabbed his cloak and wrapped it around his body and rushed out.

It wasn't until he got to the street that he realized the seriousness of the matter, because the hanging lanterns were all on the trees, and the lanterns caught fire, and the oil wax inside was sprinkled on the trees, and even the branches were burned. , The fire is getting bigger and bigger.Standing on the street, before he could stand still, he was almost pushed to the ground by the crowd. He grabbed a person and wanted to find out what was going on, but he didn't expect that it was Tong Qi who was caught.

At this time, Tong Qifa's bun was also messed up, and his clothes were torn a few times due to the crowding and pushing, making him very embarrassed.

As soon as Yue Huaiyi saw him, his heart skipped a beat. Before he could ask, Tong Qi also recognized him, grabbed his lapel and shouted loudly: "Quick, save people, Yuan Zhao..."

Yue Huaiyi saw that the direction Tong Qi was pointing at was Biyun Lake, and his heart suddenly became cold. Before Tong Qi could continue to speak, he pushed the crowd away and rushed to the lake.From where he was standing to the lake was only the width of one street, but he felt that it took three autumns to squeeze through, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead in the winter.Before reaching the lake, I heard the people on the shore yelling for help, and listening to the movement in the water, it seemed that there were quite a few people who fell.

Tong Qi didn't stop him, Yue Huaiyi rushed out of him with a whoosh, and swallowed the remaining half sentence of Yuan Zhao asking you to find someone to put out the fire.Yue Huaiyi didn't even think about it, if Yuan Zhao fell into the water, would he be able to stand here?

Even if he doesn't know how to swim, he has to jump down to save others!
The flames were soaring into the sky, and the faint clear water on the lake reflected made one's heart tremble, especially when dozens of people were thrashing about inside.There were those who fell into the water and those who were saving lives, all crowded into a pot of porridge, and the splashes made by the people in the water made it difficult to see the faces of the people in the water.Yue Huaiyi came from the south, so the water quality is naturally not bad, so he jumped into the water without taking off his cloak in a moment of panic.The fur-trimmed cloak that was soaked in water was so heavy that he almost tumbled in the water. While undoing the cloak, he shouted Yuan Zhao's name.

Only after Yue Huaiyi yelled twice, was the woman who fell into the water grabbed him and shouted for help, holding on to his clothes tightly.

Naturally, Yue Huaiyi couldn't just ignore death, so he withdrew his outstretched hand halfway, grabbed the cloak he had just thrown into the water, wrapped it around the woman's arm, and dragged her to the shore, saving people at the same time He turned his head and kept looking around for Yuan Zhao, and called her name loudly, feeling very anxious, but he couldn't ignore the life in front of him, so he had to swim forward desperately to send her to the shore. .

Although Yue Huaiyi's voice was loud, it was a bit inconspicuous amidst the wailing and howling of ghosts and wolves. He said that the woman pushed her ashore, and said: "This girl, I pushed you with a cloak, but I have never had anything to do with you." Any inappropriate behavior. I am a person who has a marriage contract, and I have been observing the etiquette just now, so I cannot be responsible for you..."

Yuan Zhao was pushed to the other side in an instant by the crowd. He heard Yue Huaiyi's voice coming from the water from a distance, and thought he was hallucinating, so he squeezed all the way to see what happened, but he didn't want to hear Yue Huaiyi saving someone ashore. There is a long string of words in his mouth like reciting Buddhist scriptures.

The fire was spreading all around, and the residents on the street had brought buckets, washbasins and other things that could hold water from their homes at this time, and poured water from the lake to put out the fire.The noisy and crowded crowds are still surging in different ways. In the pitch-black lake, there are struggling crowds calling for help everywhere. Countless voices gather here, but Yuan Zhao just heard these words clearly and truly. I went to my heart.

She couldn't tell what she was feeling at the moment, subconsciously she knew that Yue Huaiyi's behavior must be caused by her rude attitude towards Cheng Wei in the small courtyard last time.

What a dork!
It's a long story, but in fact it was only a short moment, Yuan Zhao ran over almost immediately, squatted down and grabbed Yue Huaiyi's back collar.At this moment, Yue Huaiyi had already sent people ashore, and went back to the lake to look for Yuan Zhao. When he was caught by the collar, he was very annoyed, and turned around with an angry face, not wanting to see Yuan Zhao being pretty and alive. squatting on the shore, that little arm stretched out to grab his collar...

"Yuan Zhao..." Yue Huaiyi couldn't believe his eyes, "You... are you okay?"

"Come up quickly, I have something to say later." Yuan Zhao was afraid that he would freeze to death, and such a weak scholar would follow other people's example of diving into the water to save people.

Yue Huaiyi didn't agree, and said with a sigh of relief: "I'm relieved to see that you're fine, you stand back, don't fall off, I'm going to save people, there are still people in the lake." As he spoke, he pushed Yuan Zhao back. , I quickly swam into the lake again, still holding the cloak used to avoid suspicion in my hand.

Everyone has the instinct to seek good luck and avoid bad luck. When encountering such a thing, it's okay to jump into the lake to save people in summer.But the lake water in this winter is so cold and icy, even those who know how to swim, probably few are willing to risk their lives to save others.Yue Huaiyi, a scholar with no power to restrain a chicken, can put people first without hesitation. Yuan Zhaojing couldn't say a word to stop him, so he could only watch helplessly as he went back to save people.

Tong Qi had already brought the officers and soldiers here at this time, and there were officers and soldiers patrolling at the Shangyuan Festival, so he was afraid that there would be a fire somewhere.Tong Qi found the patrolling team without running far. At this time, the servants of the Cheng family also came out to fight the fire. There were so many people at once, and there were officers and soldiers to maintain order, carry water to put out the fire, and the panicked crowd also Gradually quiet down.

Tong Qi was sweating through the crowd and returned to Yuan Zhao's side. While wiping his sweat, he said, "Today is lucky, I ran into a patrolling soldier, where is Yue Huaiyi?"

Seeing that Yuan Zhao didn't speak, and kept staring at the water, he followed his gaze and saw Yue Huaiyi dragging a drowning man to the shore.He hurried over to help drag the person to the shore, and said to Yue Huaiyi: "You are a scholar, why go down to join in the fun, come up quickly, the officers and soldiers are here, you don't need to be brave here." Anyway, this Chunwei is yellow.

Panting, Yue Huaiyi pushed the person up with Tong Qi's help, and dragged the person to swim in the water. It was really hard to feel this winter again, and he was really exhausted after dragging the third one. He nodded and asked Tong Qi to pull him up, then turned his head to see that some officers and soldiers jumped into the lake to save people, and then he was really relieved.

Tong Qi hurriedly took off his cloak and wrapped it around Yue Huaiyi, Yuan Zhao and him helped Yue Huaiyi go home one by one.After entering the door and sending him into the bedroom, Yuan Zhao said, "You help him change his clothes, and I'll boil some hot water."

Tong Qi originally wanted to say that he was going to boil the water, how could Yuan Zhao do such a rough job, but before he could say anything, he realized that asking Yuan Zhao to help Yue Huaiyi change clothes seemed even worse... so he agreed with a stiff face, thinking that the prince knew This thing won't eat him, will it?

Although she is Jin Zunyugui's princess, Yuan Zhao is really good at things like burning fire.Her mother said that there are some things that girls don't have to do but must be able to. She likes to eat something delicious, and occasionally goes to the kitchen to watch how others do it.Watching fire is an interesting thing, and I even learned it once. At that time, I didn’t know that there were too many firewood stuffed, and a small strand of hair was burned by the suffocated flame.The father was furious and wanted to punish the palace servants, but the queen mother said that this was what she wanted to do, and it was always good for girls to learn more.It is not necessarily necessary to do it in the days to come, but if something really happens, it may save lives.

In the past, Yuan Zhao didn't think what her mother's words meant, but now she was sitting on a wooden plinth in the kitchen and skillfully raised a fire to boil water, and cooked ginger soup on the small stove next to her. At this moment, she thought of her mother's words Come, I feel that it is really the truth.

Sure enough, it can save lives.

If she is really a princess who knows nothing at this moment, she will only cry when things happen, neither can boil hot water to keep Yue Huaiyi warm, nor can she cook ginger soup to drive away the cold.Yue Huaiyi had to take care of himself after losing half of his life, that was really fatal.

After Tong Qi helped Yue Huaiyi change his clothes, he came over and told Yuan Zhao that he was going to find a doctor.

Yuan Zhao nodded and let him go, picked up the firewood and put it into the stove, touched his face with his backhand, rolled his eyes, turned his head to look, and saw Yue Huaiyi wrapped in a felt blanket standing at the door looking at her.
