Phi-Fic Chapter 314 What a sin!
Chapter 314 What a sin!
The reinforcements arrived and finally calmed the people down, arranging for those who were not injured to leave quickly. The doctors were already treating the injured, and the government was helping to find the children who had been lost.
When Xiao Zhen arrived, his face was gloomy. How could such a thing happen on a Lantern Festival? How did the government do things? Didn't they know how big the venue was and how many people could come? Where were the people responsible for maintaining order?
The prefect, the assistant magistrate and others also hurried over. Seeing Xiao Zhen's dark-faced face, they felt their hearts sink. It was all over. The marquis would definitely hold them accountable.
Damn, every year there are people guarding the city gate, and if the number of people exceeds the limit, they are not allowed to enter. Wait, there will also be officials at the scene, where are the people working this year?
Xiao Zhen looked at his daughter-in-law and eldest son, "You go back first."
He had his work cut out tonight, and they couldn't help much here.
Lin Xiaomi pursed her lips and got on the carriage. As she left, she heard many families who had lost their children crying...
Who would have thought that such a mess would happen during the lively Lantern Festival? Too much joy leads to sorrow, that's probably what it means...
"Are you okay?"
As soon as she got home, she saw Sun standing at the door waiting anxiously. She was really scared to death when she heard that there was a stampede at the Lantern Festival.
He looked up and down at the two people who got off the car, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure they were unharmed.
"It's okay, Mom. We are watching the lanterns in the box and haven't gone downstairs." Lin Xiaomi was secretly glad that Xiao Ran had booked a private room. If it was at the lantern festival, it would be hard to say whether she would be okay now.
"God bless you, nothing will happen, nothing will happen!"
"Mom, Dad said he might not come back today. Many people were injured, and some even lost their children. Dad said you don't have to wait for him."
"I see." Sun's face was filled with worry. The Marquis must be very busy these days, so she decided to ask the kitchen to stew some supplements for him.
After saying goodbye to Sun, the two returned to their own courtyard, both feeling a little depressed. Lin Xiaomi felt that she didn't want to participate in the Lantern Festival in the future.
The psychological shadow is too great!
"My Lord, I wonder if anyone has been killed today."
Xiao Ran nodded, his face heavy. With such a severe stampede, it would be strange if there were no casualties. He just hoped that there would be fewer casualties.
"It's time to give the city's officials a good beating. The city is so lazy, I can't even imagine other places."
"Yes, when the accident happened today, I didn't see any staff on duty. Where are the people on duty?" Lin Xiaomi also found it incredible. They neglected their duties at the doorstep, which showed how much they didn't take them seriously.
"Dad will check it out first. You've been tired all day, you should rest early."
"Can't sleep."
Lin Xiaomi told the truth that the maids who had just been sent away to rest were also greatly frightened. Their faces were still pale after returning to the mansion for such a long time.
Alas, he is the same, how can anyone sleep?
The next day.
The main courtyard had sent someone to inform them that they didn't need to go there to pay respects these days. Sun was afraid that they would be frightened and have trouble sleeping; secondly, she was not in the mood. The Marquis did not return home overnight, and only sent someone back to get some clean clothes.
After asking around, she learned that 17 people were trampled to death last night, and hundreds of people were injured, including dozens of seriously injured. Now, there are still three families who have not found their children. The nearby officials have also searched many times, and there is indeed no one. Did people just disappear out of thin air?
Sin!
After breakfast, the children went to the teacher's place, and Sun took the nanny to the Buddhist temple to chant sutras...
Xiao Zhen returned home the next day and went to the old man's yard.
"These people are really overdoing it and neglecting their duties. This time you should conduct a thorough investigation and identify those who are slacking off on their work. If you can punish them, punish them. If you can't, just replace them."
"My son knows."
"Have the deceased's family members been comforted?"
"Yes, it has been dealt with. I thought it was cold this year, so there would not be as many people coming out to enjoy the lanterns as in previous years, but unexpectedly, there are more. Everyone has been stuck at home for the whole winter, oh!"
It is extremely unlucky to be struck by a disaster.
The joy of getting the sky lantern was somewhat dissipated because of this incident.
"Deng, hurry up and let them do it. Send someone to test it."
He set off the lantern last night, and he thought it could really be used for border defense.
Compared with the Lantern Festival accident, this is the top priority!
"My son knows."
Knowing that her husband had returned, Sun had already asked someone to boil water for a bath and prepare meals.
After two tiring days, the right thing to do when you return home is to have a good rest...
