Now the Lin Mansion is in chaos. Not only the eldest lady's courtyard was burned into a sea of flames, but several courtyards connected to it were also damaged.
The people in the Lin Mansion were fleeing in all directions. When they arrived at the point of the fire, they saw bloody scenes and charred snakes all over the ground. The fire seemed to have no intention of stopping, sweeping through the row like a fire dragon. Row of ancient houses.
Li Chao quickly arranged for people to put out the fire.
Fortunately, there is a lake in Lin Mansion, and more and more city patrol soldiers joined the fire-fighting team.
This is the ancestral home of the Lin Mansion. Although Lin Hu has several sons, there is only one legitimate son, Lin Xu. Therefore, in the ancestral home in Kyoto, only the eldest son and his family live here.
Since Lin Xianzhi became the governor of Mengshui, his whole family, old and young, moved away from Kyoto. Until Lin Xianzhi was dismissed from office and became an ordinary citizen with nothing, so at this time, everyone with four or three bedrooms lived in this house. .
Li Chao already knew that the concubine in the Lin Mansion deliberately set the fire that caused the fire.
At this time, the butler's face was ashen, and he ran out crawling along a long corridor: "Dead, dead, all dead, it's too scary..."
The housekeeper seemed to have gone crazy and ran towards the outside of the courtyard.
An Xiyue followed Li Chao and saw the housekeeper at a glance.
Li Chao stopped the housekeeper and said, "Who are you and why are you running away?"
At this time, the housekeeper couldn't say a word and muttered: "Dead, all dead."
"What's dead?" Li Chao asked.
The housekeeper looked in the direction of Mrs. Lin's yard in horror, his fingers trembling.
An Xiyue had a bad premonition in her heart and said in a deep voice, "He is the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion, and the direction he pointed to was Mrs. Lin's yard."
When Li Chao arrived with his soldiers, he saw that Mrs. Lin's wing was filled with corpses.
An Xiyue covered her mouth, and when she entered the room, she saw Mrs. Lin's tragic death.
Her pupils were full of shock, her eyes were wide open, and she looked like she was still dead.
At this time, An Xiyue found a handmade tassel on the edge of the bed. She was so shocked that her eyes almost fell off. She quickly picked up the tassel and held it in her hand. It was full of disbelief. How could it be him?
Li Chao searched around the outside of the hospital, but found nothing. He immediately ordered: "Go and inform Jingzhao Governor that a murder has occurred in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Li Chao turned around and came in: "Girl, I have searched all over, but there is no British princess..."
An Xiyue's eyes were slightly cold. When Li Chao turned around and came in, she hid the handmade tassels in her sleeves and said calmly: "My old lady may have escaped in the chaos. I'll look elsewhere." , thank you, Mr. Li."
An Xiyue said and ran out of the yard, towards the wing where she found the little snake.
She pushed open the door of the wing and found that the little snake was gone.
Half an hour later, Jingzhao Yin Rongshao arrived with his officers and soldiers after receiving the news.
Rong Shao remembered that the former Prime Minister's Mansion was majestic and solemn, covering an extremely large area, but now the ground was in a mess. Snake corpses could be seen everywhere in the outer and inner courtyards.
The inner courtyard was even worse. In addition to the charred houses, the fire had been partially extinguished, but the fire was so widespread that it would be difficult to extinguish it in a short time.
Especially towards the inside, no one dared to go, they could only wait for the fire to extinguish on its own.
Fortunately, the city patrol soldiers had received strict training and quickly took the other uninjured people out of the Lin Mansion.
The reason why most of them were not injured was because they had already found a safe place to hide.
They were all horrified to see Aunt Hong die in front of their eyes.
