"Lu Bing!"
Jiang Bin and the others were stunned when they saw Lu Bing rush into the sea of fire.
The fire was so big that Lu Bing would be courting death if he went in.
"Oh!"
However, Lu Bing couldn't care less. He rushed into Fang Qi's room and found her. He grabbed Zhu Houjin who was lying on the bed and carried him out.
Not long after, two burning men rushed out of the sea of fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute.
Jiang Bin turned pale with fright when he saw this and hurriedly ordered the eunuch,"Hurry up and splash water! What are you guys doing?”
As the eunuchs splashed water, the fire on Lu Bing and Zhu Houyi was extinguished.
After saving Zhu Houjin, Lu Bing's body swayed and he fell to the ground.
"Quickly call the imperial physician over!"
As Jiang Bin spoke, he sent someone to check on Lu Bing while he went over to check on Zhu Houjin.
Unlike Lu Bing, Zhu Houjiu had the system to protect him, so he closed his eyes and rested for a while before waking up very quickly.
"Cough cough!"
After Zhu Houzhen kowtowed twice, he coughed out some ashes from his mouth.
"He's awake, the Emperor is awake!"
"Aiya, that's great!"
After Zhu Houzhen woke up, he stood up and walked to Lu Bing's side to check.
This time, if Lu Bing hadn't been there, Zhu Houjiu would have been dead. Although he had the system to protect him, even if Zhu Houjiu didn't die, he would have been severely injured.
But this time, Lu Bing had entered the palace to save Zhu Houyou without any regard for his own safety, allowing Zhu Houyou to be safe and sound.
Zhu Houjiu had not misjudged him. Lu Bing was indeed loyal to him. He was willing to sacrifice his life to save Zhu Houjiu. This kind of friendship was definitely not something that ordinary people could do.
Whether it was out of his own friendship or his own political needs, Zhu Houxin couldn't let Lu Bing die.
"System, check Lu Bing's body!”
"Yes, sir!"
"Reporting to the host, Lu Bing is fine. He just fainted because he inhaled too much soot!”
"Yes!"
Zhu Hou Xin was relieved after hearing that Lu Bing was fine. Fang Qi saw that Zhu Houzhen's face was covered in dust and dirt, so she silently found a towel to wipe Zhu Houzhen's face.
At this moment, the eunuchs and guards didn't care about Lu Bing's life or death. They only felt relieved after seeing that Zhu Houjin was safe and sound.
"Great, emperor, you're fine!”
"Yes!"
Just as the eunuchs and the guards heaved a sigh of relief, Zhu Houjin stood up and swept his eyes across the people around him.
"Who set the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute tonight?”
"Ah?"
At this moment, Zhu Houjian was emitting waves of killing intent. The aura on his body made everyone present tremble in fear.
Even Jiang Bin saw Zhu Houjiu's imposing manner and was so scared that he lowered his head, not daring to meet Zhu Houjiu's gaze.
Jiang Bin really didn't expect that this 15-year-old youth would emit such a powerful aura after being angered. This was simply not an aura that a human could emit. It was simply the aura of an evil spirit from hell.
"Zhen, ask again!"
"Who set the fire tonight?”
"Your Majesty!"
The eunuchs could no longer bear the immense pressure brought by the little Emperor in front of them, so they flopped and knelt down in front of Zhu Houjiu.
"Emperor, please spare my life! The fire tonight was purely an accident. It was not intentional!”
"Hehe, is that so?"
"It's really strange that this fire could actually start from my bedroom!”
When Zhu Houjin said this, everyone present was so frightened that their bodies trembled.
When Zhu Houjin's gaze fell on Jiang Bin, he paused for a moment.
"Lord Jiang, do you think what I said is right?”
"Ah…yes, yes, the emperor is right!”
As Jiang Bin spoke, he felt extremely regretful for angering this little Emperor. Thus, he directly knelt down towards Zhu Houjie.
"Emperor, this lowly official swears that I will definitely find the arsonist and will not let him off easily!”
"Hehe, good. With Lord Jiang's words, Zhen can rest assured!”
Of course, Zhu Houjin was not stupid. He understood that this fire was not set by Yang Tinghe, but by Jiang Bin.
However, as for whether it was Yang Tinghe or Jiang Bin, Zhu Houjin was still unsure. After all, Zhu Houjin had offended Yang Tinghe by bringing Fang Qi into the palace, and he had offended Jiang Bin by killing a Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards on the street.
Both of them had the potential to start a fire.
However, when Zhu Houyi saw Jiang Bin's panicked expression, he understood that Jiang Bin was a little more suspicious.
With Zhu Houjiu's temper, he would not let this arsonist off.
He would definitely make the other party pay the price of blood to compensate Zhu Houjin for tonight's loss.
"Cough cough!"
Lu Bing had already woken up, but because he had rushed into the sea of fire to put out the fire, he was badly burned.
"Emperor, Lord Lu Bing has woken up!”
"Mm, alright!"
Seeing that Lu Bing had woken up, Zhu Houjin was also very happy. However, as the emperor of the world, Zhu Houjin could only hide his happiness in his heart and could not express it.
"Pass down the order to decorate the royal study. Zhen will be staying in the royal study for the next two days!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"In addition, Lu Bing of the Embroidered Uniform Guards has rendered meritorious service in saving the Emperor. He will be promoted to Tongzhi of the Embroidered Uniform Guards and will be ranked third!”
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Good!"
Zhu Houyan glanced at Fang Qi and Lu Bing beside him and went over to pull them up.
"Let's go. Follow me to wash up!”
……
By the time Zhu Houjin and the other two had finished washing up, the fire in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute had already been extinguished, and Zhu Houjin and the others had already arrived at the royal study.
"Lu Bing, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, I would have been doomed!”
"Ai, emperor, let's not talk about this between us, it seems distant!”
"Yes!"
"Oh right, Emperor, was the fire really an accident?”
"Accident? Humph!"
As Zhu Houjin was speaking, he suddenly punched the table in front of him heavily, giving Fang Qi and Lu Bing a fright.
"The fire started in my bedroom. It can't be an accident! If I am not wrong, this fire was caused by Jiang Bin!”
"What? Emperor, how dare Jiang Bin assassinate the emperor?”
"Humph! Jiang Bin only wanted to scare this one and make this one listen. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought people to save this one!”
As Zhu Houjin spoke up to this point, a cold light flashed in his eyes as killing intent rose.
"Lu Bing, I will give you two days to gather a hundred trusted aides from the Embroidered Uniform Guards!”
"What? Emperor, you…"
"Zhen, I will make a move against Jiang Bin now and completely eradicate him from the palace!”
