I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

248 Natural Disaster

No one on the mountain road expected that a calamity would suddenly descend on them without any warning.

With a loud bang, the snow on the entire mountaintop swept up the rocks and rushed down from the mountaintop. Many passers-by below were buried under the rocks and snow before they could even cry out.

All of this happened too quickly and suddenly. By the time the surrounding people who had escaped the calamity reacted, they were already in a living hell.

Because many women were bringing their servants up the mountain. When the rocks rolled down, there was a long carriage convoy driving on the road below.

The frightened horses rushed around and injured many people in addition to those who were injured by the falling rocks. The scene was completely chaotic…

After Lu Ze and Lin Suisui received the news, they were the first to arrive.

Lu Ze had brought many guards with him on this trip. While stabilizing the situation, he also caught the lackeys who had done the deed and planned to escape!

Many families didn’t know who Lu Ze was, but they were intimidated by the long sabers in the hands of the guards beside him.

Moreover, with the chaotic situation in front of them, they needed someone to make arrangements. Since he was willing to help, no one around him dared to question him.

Everything else had to be put aside for now. The most important thing was to save people.

Those who were lightly injured were easy to deal with. They only needed to be bandaged! As for those who had their arms and legs injured, Lin Suisui could bandage them and send them to the carriage to transport them back to the city quickly!

The pedestrians who were buried under the rocks and mud were the priority.

Although Lu Ze quickly arranged for people to dig up the soil and search, because there were not enough people, they were not fast enough. In order to save people as soon as possible, Lu Ze quickly instructed people to go to the Huben Battalion in the suburbs and mobilize the soldiers of the Huben Battalion to help! There were also farmers nearby who could be mobilized.

He only hoped that he could save as much people as possible.

While everyone was busy saving people, Pei Zhaoyue and the old consort were completely dumbfounded. However, after the initial shock, Pei Zhaoyue was furious.

She raised her hand and slapped the old consort’s face hard as she scolded at the top of her lungs, “Trash, you piece of trash! You can’t even handle such a small task!”

Actually, it was fine if things went wrong, but the worst thing was that Gu Erlang had caught all of this stupid woman’s useless lackeys!

“This was an accident. It was really an accident!” After the old consort was slapped to the ground, she covered her face and explained with a quivering voice, “At that time, I saw their carriage turn into the mountain path. I calculated the time. This was all done according to our previous arrangements!

However, who would have thought that they actually didn’t take that path? Instead, they took another path!”

After things went wrong, the old consort felt extremely aggrieved.

From the beginning to the end, Pei Zhaoyue had arranged everything. Other than handing over the token and manpower, the old consort had not participated at all!

But now that something went wrong, Pei Zhaoyue blamed her!

However, although she was dissatisfied, she didn’t dare to criticize Pei Zhaoyue.

Moreover, the most important thing now was that she had handed over the manpower. If something was discovered during the investigation, the first to suffer would be Duke Huai Yang’s ministry!

“Madam, now is not the time to push around blame! The most important thing now is to silence those who have been captured.” Pei Zhaoyue’s trusted aide, Madam Wei, was beside her.

Seeing that the two people in front of her still didn’t get to the point, Madam Wei finally couldn’t help but take a step forward to interrupt Pei Zhaoyue. “If Gu Erlang really brings them to the Imperial City’s government office, I’m afraid none of those people will be able to resist confessing.”

“What can we do now?! They have already been arrested. As if we can ask Gu Erlang to return them?!” Pei Zhaoyue paced around in frustration. When she turned around, she had regained her composure. “Yes, I can get the general to intercept him!

If the general takes action, those people won’t dare to refuse!”

“But will the general be willing to make this trip?!” Madam Wei felt vexed.

Everyone knew that the general and his wife were at odds with each other. Everyone knew that the two of them were already enemies. If possible, they wanted to kill each other immediately!

Since the general’s wife was in a dilemma, it would be good enough if the general only watched from the sidelines and didn’t kick her when she was down on account of the fact that they were husband and wife, but if they wanted him to help…

Dream on!

“He has to even if he doesn’t want to!

If he doesn’t help, I’ll push all the blame on him! I’ll say that he was dissatisfied with the recent events in Cloud Mountain City and wanted to cause trouble for my nephew!

Let’s see if my nephew will help me or him when he comes back!”

Pei Zhaoyue was ignorantly fearless. She sneered smugly as she said, “In short, we’re still husband and wife now, so we have to help each other! Even if he’s unwilling, he has to help!

“Otherwise, since we’re all in the same boat now, if the boat capsizes, I still have the Pei family to rely on, but he’ll be doomed!”

“What if the general can’t stop them?!” Madam Wei couldn’t help but want to curse at Pei Zhaoyue.

At this time, if those connections were really useful, why did Madam Liu insult Pei Zhaoyue so unscrupulously?!

From the looks of it, Madam Liu clearly had something on the general!

Moreover, the other party clearly didn’t take General Gao seriously! Madam Wei had been persuading Pei Zhaoyue to think about this matter at length, but Pei Zhaoyue…

“How can he not be able to stop them?!” Pei Zhaoyue looked up and stared at Madam Wei in shock as she said angrily, “What do you mean? He’s the general who stabilizes the north. He can’t even handle such a small matter?!”

“Madam, calm down and think about it! Have you forgotten what happened when Madam Liu visited that day?!” Madam Wei sighed and patiently reminded her one last time, “So, if you really want the general’s help, you might as well go all out, in for a penny, in for a pound!”
