After Zhu Houjiu had finished his dinner, he asked the eunuchs and serving girls to arrange a room for Fang Qi to stay in in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute. Then, he went to the royal study to review the memorials.
When he went to the royal study, Zhu Houjiu opened his system and pulled out Fang Daxia's information to take a good look.
Fang Daxia, Fang Qi's father, was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites in the early years of Zhengde. He was demoted to a local official because he offended Yang Tinghe and died of depression.
Fang Daxia's only thought in his life was to clear his name. After his death, Fang Qi did not want her father to die in peace, so she disguised herself as a man to participate in the imperial examination.
Because Fang Daxia had a good reputation as a local official, the local officials all helped Fang Qi. In the end, Fang Qi successfully passed the provincial examination and came to the capital.
"Mm, not bad!"
After Zhu Houzhen had investigated Fang Daxia's information, he was even more certain that Fang Qi could help him defeat Yang Tinghe. Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhen was relieved.
Thinking of Fang Qi's shy and cute appearance, Zhu Houyan could not help but smile.
When the eunuchs at the side saw the little Emperor's mysterious smile, they all felt it was particularly strange. They secretly thought to themselves that the Emperor had encountered something happy today. Why was he smiling so happily?
With the help of the system, Zhu Houzhen was able to handle political affairs very quickly.
After he finished dealing with the memorials and returned to the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, he saw that it was getting late and prepared to sleep.
"Emperor, Guanglu Temple has sent supper for the emperor to enjoy!”
The Ming Dynasty did not have any imperial kitchen. The place where the emperor ate was usually called Guanglu Temple. In the later period, the emperor's meals were managed by eunuchs and no longer managed by Guanglu Temple.
"Hmm?"
When Zhu Houyan heard that Guanglu Temple had sent supper, he immediately felt that something was wrong. I clearly don't have the habit of eating supper. Why did Guanglu Temple send supper to me today?
However, before Zhu Houyan could ask, Fang Qi heard that there was delicious food coming from the palace and happily came over to eat supper.
Seeing Fang Qi's happy expression, Zhu Houyi smiled and did not ask any further. He asked the eunuch to leave supper for himself and Fang Qi to enjoy.
After the two of them finished their supper, they went to sleep. However, for some reason, Zhu Houzhen had a very comfortable sleep. After lying down, he fell into a deep sleep…
……
"Not good, put out the fire! The Hall of Heaven's Tribute is on fire!"
When half of the sky in the Imperial Palace's Fengtian Hall was on fire, the eunuchs came out and shouted.
When the guards heard that the Hall of Heaven's Tribute was on fire, they were instantly scared out of their wits. They thought to themselves that this was the palace where the emperor lived. If the emperor was burned to death, all these people would be finished.
"Put out the fire, put out the fire!"
"Where's the emperor? Are you out?"
"No, the fire is too big. We can't enter to save the emperor at all!”
"What is it? We're done for this time!"
When he heard that the palace was on fire, the commander of the Brocade Guard, Jiang Bin, rushed over with his subordinates. When he saw the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, he was instantly stunned.
"This bunch of trash!"
Jiang Bin cursed in his heart. He told them to set fire to scare the little Emperor, but he didn't ask them to burn the little Emperor to death!
That's right, the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute this time was caused by Jiang Bin. Jiang Bin originally wanted to scare Zhu Houjin a little this time so that he wouldn't go against him again, but who knew that this fire wouldn't stop after it started burning.
Jiang Bin was extremely daring, and it wasn't that he didn't dare to kill Zhu Houjie directly. It was because Jiang Bin knew that he had already assassinated an emperor. If he assassinated a second emperor, he would really be finished in the palace.
"Damn it, what are you all standing there for? Hurry up and put out the fire and save the emperor!”
"Sir, the fire is too big. We can't charge in at all!”
"Trash, a bunch of trash!"
Jiang Bin watched as the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute grew bigger and bigger. The guards could not control the fire at all. He could not help but feel frightened.
……
At this moment, in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, the system had sensed the danger around it and immediately began to examine Zhu Houjiu's body. It had also removed the anesthetic effect on Zhu Houjiu's body.
"Ding! Warning to the host! We need to escape the sea of fire as soon as possible!"
"Oh!"
Smelling the smoke in his nose, Zhu Houzhen was shocked and hurriedly jumped up from the dragon bed.
"F * ck! He did not expect to fall into their trap and be drugged by them!”
"This group of bastards, zhen will definitely kill them all!”
At this moment, the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute was burning fiercely, almost reaching Zhu Houjin's bed.
"Not good, Fang Qi!"
Zhu Houxin remembered that Fang Qi had eaten supper with him. He had the protection of the system, so he did not die in the sea of fire. But Fang Qi was different.
As expected, when Zhu Houjin rushed to the next room, Fang Qi was still lying unconscious on the bed. Zhu Houxin hurriedly went over to use the system to wake Fang Qi up.
"Oh, what's going on?"
"What? This…why is there a fire? Your Majesty, what's going on!”
"Stop talking and quickly put on your clothes!”
Zhu Houjin frowned. Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, he casually put on Fang Qi's clothes, grabbed her, and used the martial arts he had practiced in the system during this period of time to throw Fang Qi out of the Hall of Heaven's Tribute.
After Fang Qi was thrown out of the sea of fire, she was successfully thrown outside.
However, just as Zhu Houjin was about to run away, he fell off the bed because he had inhaled too much smoke.
"Oh no, I forgot about this!"
"F * ck, am I going to choke to death on the ashes today?”
At this moment, Fang Qi had already been thrown out by Zhu Houjin. Lu Bing, who was outside, had already rushed over. When he saw Fang Qi come out, he hurriedly jumped up and caught her.
Fang Qi's body was already on fire. The eunuchs hurriedly splashed water on Fang Qi's body and saved her.
Lu Bing grabbed Fang Qi with a sinister expression.
"Where's the Emperor?"
"The emperor is still inside, hurry up and save him!”
"Oh!"
Lu Bing frowned. Without thinking, he jumped up and ran into the sea of fire. The eunuch beside him hurriedly stopped him.
"Lord Lu Bing, the fire inside is too big. You'll be courting death if you enter!”
"Get lost, anyone who blocks me will die!"
"This…"
When the eunuchs saw Lu Bing's murderous look, they were instantly scared out of their wits and hurriedly ran away.
This old man was the Emperor's childhood friend. Now, he was about to lose his mind because he was worried about the Emperor's safety. It was better not to provoke him.
Lu Bing pondered for a moment, then ran to the side to pick up a bucket and drench himself with water. Then, without hesitation, he jumped into the sea of fire.
