It was already dark, and Li Zhang was about to leave the palace, but unexpectedly someone suddenly came to report that it was a fire in Jingfu Palace. This scared Li Zhang, and hurriedly turned his head to look northeast. He found that the location of Jingfu Palace was indeed in the sky, and half of the sky was dyed red.

Seeing this, Li Zhang immediately ran towards the direction of Jingfu Palace. It was very common for fires in the palace. After all, most of the palaces in this era were made of wooden structures. I won’t mention the sky fires of thunder and lightning. Sometimes, if you are not careful in the palace, it may cause a big fire, especially the palace is very densely built. As long as a fire occurs, it may burn into a piece. This is how the Yuqing Zhaoying Palace was burned.

In fact, it is not just the palace, but there is a fire in Tokyo almost every once in a while. This kind of fire does not only burn one household, but also burns one area, from a few to half a street, and it may be burned. If you want to blame it, people in this era like to make houses with wood. In addition, Tokyo has a large population, so many buildings are crowded together, so it is strange that it is not a fire.

Li Zhang was worried that Zhao Zhen would encounter danger, so he ran all the way. On the way, he also saw many eunuchs and palace maids running towards Jingfu Palace. When he came to Jingfu Palace, he also showed an anxious expression. He had hope, because Jingfu Palace was so big, maybe Zhao Zhen did not burn, but when he came here, he found that the area of ​​the fire was more than he expected. Most of the Jingfu Palace was trapped in the sea of ​​fire, and Zhao Zhen's bedroom was also in it.

"Where is Your Majesty?" Li Zhang grabbed an eunuch who ran out of Jingfu Palace and asked loudly. There were people around him who were making noises to put out fires, but he did not see Zhao Zhen at all.

"No...I don't know, it should...I should be in the bedroom." The little eunuch was also scared, his face covered in black and gray. After being caught by Li Zhang, he replied tremblingly.

Li Zhang was also extremely angry at this time. Most of the Jingfu Palace was burning, and the bedroom seemed to be burning even more vigorously. If Zhao Zhen was really there, it would be bad. He pushed the eunuch away and rushed in without caring about the fires around him. The palaces and houses on both sides were full of fire, and the roads were full of smoke. From time to time, he could see people inside running out. When Li Zhang saw each other, he finally confirmed that Zhao Zhen was in the bedroom.

It turned out that when the fire broke out, Zhao Zhen was resting in the bedroom. As a result, the fire came too suddenly. The eunuchs beside him were frightened and fleeing. As a result, they actually left Zhao Zhen in the bedroom. Now the fire in the bedroom has already surged into the sky, and Zhao Zhen may not have escaped.

Thinking of the above, Li Zhang became even more anxious. When he arrived at the bedroom, he saw a fire lit up at the palace gate. Several eunuchs stood outside the door and wanted to go in, but when they saw the fire, they were a little scared, and some even turned around and ran away.

Li Zhang ran forward with thick smoke, grabbed an eunuch and asked loudly again: "Is Your Majesty here?"

"In... Your Majesty is inside, but we can't get in." The eunuch replied loudly, his hair and eyebrows were gone. He tried several times just now but couldn't rush in. Now he didn't know what to do.

When Li Zhang heard this, he turned his head and looked at the bedroom that was sealed by the fire, then glanced around, and then strode to a large tank outside the bedroom. This tank was filled with water, which was originally for firefighting, and could also raise some ornamental fish in it. For example, in the yard where Li Zhang lived, he raised a lot of fish in it.

Li Zhang lifted the lid on the jar and jumped in and soaked his whole body. The eunuch who was caught by Li Zhang and asked him to react immediately when he saw Li Zhang's actions. He immediately ran out immediately, then dragged a quilt from somewhere, and then jumped in with Li Zhang to soak himself, and soaked the quilt at the same time.

Li Zhang was also a little surprised to see the eunuch so clever, but it was not the time to speak. He and the eunuch pressed the heavy quilt on their heads, and then the two of them desperately crawled into the palace gate. Although there was a wet quilt blocking it, Li Zhang still felt that his whole body was so hot that he might have been burned in some places, but he didn't care about these things at this time.

The bedroom was filled with thick smoke. Fortunately, the bedroom was large enough, and the smoke was mainly concentrated on it. Li Zhang and the eunuch bent over and rushed in, shouting "Your Majesty" while running. Although the smoke was concentrated in the upper part, the visibility in the hall was still not high. Fortunately, Li Zhang often came here, and he could walk up even with his eyes closed.

"Ahem, I... I'm here!" Just as Li Zhang and his friends ran to the back hall, they finally heard a faint voice shouting, which made the two of them run over hurriedly. As a result, they found Zhao Zhen, who was almost fainted under a book case. There was also a eunuch who had fainted by him, who was the most popular among him.

It turned out that when the fire broke out, Zhao Zhen was sitting here alone studying, and there was no one to serve him. As a result, the fire came too suddenly, and all the eunuchs and palace maids outside ran away. Fortunately, Yan Shilang was quite loyal and rushed in to find Zhao Zhen to escort him out, but he was fainted. But thanks to his desperate care, Zhao Zhen was not injured.

"Your Majesty, come with us!" Li Zhang immediately pulled Zhao Zhen up and stuffed it into the quilt. As for Yan Shilang, he was carried by the eunuch who came with him.

At this time, Zhao Zhen realized that the person who came to save him turned out to be Li Zhang, which made him scream in surprise: "Cousin, why are you in the palace?"

"I had dinner at the Empress Dowager's place, and I was about to go back when I heard that you were on fire." Li Zhang said while covering the quilt on the four people, to be precise, three people. Yan Shilang was carried by the eunuch on the left, Li Zhang on the right, and Zhao Zhen was protected by them in the middle, but the quilt was a little small, and most of Li Zhang and the eunuch were exposed, but at this time they didn't care about this, they immediately turned around and ran out along the same path.

At this time, the roof of the bedroom had been burned through the fire. From time to time, tiles and wood fell down. Even if a quilt was blocked, Li Zhang and the other two were dizzy. Fortunately, the things that fell on it were not too big. Otherwise, if the beams and other things fell down, they might all be smashed to death.

Finally, Li Zhang felt that he was about to become a roast duck, and his whole body was full of burning pain. At this time, they finally rushed to the front of the palace gate. After passing through the door full of fire, Li Zhang immediately felt a coolness all over his body. The eunuch outside also hurriedly stepped forward to help and lifted the quilt that had been roasted on fire. At this time, Li Zhang also sat on the ground and panted heavily, savoring the excitement of the aftermath of the disaster.

"I... I'm not dead!" Zhao Zhen finally came to his senses at this time. He was supported by two eunuchs. He looked left and right before shouting excitedly. When he was in the fire just now, although Li Zhang and unknown eunuchs were protected, he still felt that his whole body was about to be cooked. He had never experienced danger before, even felt that he was going to die, but he didn't expect that he would rush out in the end.

Li Zhang also recovered some strength at this time. He turned his head to look at the fire-boiling bedroom and found that some places had been burned and seemed to collapse at any time. So he immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, don't be happy in a hurry. Let's leave here as soon as possible. After all, the surrounding palaces are on fire. If they hit us, it will be a disaster."

After hearing Li Zhang's words, Zhao Zhen realized this, so he immediately ordered to leave here. Li Zhang and the unknown eunuch opened the road in front. Both sides of the road were burning palaces, and the fire and smoke rolled in from time to time, but the danger was far less than that in the bedroom just now, so Li Zhang and the others also quickly came outside Jingfu Palace.

"Oh no, the place where Miaoyuan lives seems to be on fire too!" Zhao Zhen suddenly shouted loudly at this time, and Li Zhang followed his gaze and found that on the west side of Jingfu Palace, the location of Miaoyuan Temple, was the location of Miaoyuan Temple. Miaoyuan Temple and Jingfu Palace were already close to each other, but now after the fire burned, it immediately became a whole.

Li Zhang was extremely anxious when he saw this, but he couldn't let Zhao Zhen take any risks anymore, so he immediately asked the unknown eunuch: "What's your name?"

"I am Wang Shoujing. I am the deputy minister of the introspection. Wang Shouzhong is my brother." The eunuch replied immediately. The reason why he reported his brother's name was mainly to let Li Zhang know that he was a trustworthy person.

Li Zhang did not doubt that Wang Shouluo. After all, there were so many people just now, and only he dared to follow him into the sea of ​​fire to save Zhao Zhen, so this person's loyalty should be fine. So he immediately ordered: "Take Your Majesty to a farther palace immediately, and you must not get close to the fire anymore, and then inform the Queen Mother to meet with Your Majesty, and I will go to the princess's place!"

"I'm going to go too, cousin!" Zhao Zhen immediately shouted unwillingly when he heard that Li Zhang was about to let him leave.

"No, this matter has to be discussed. You are the emperor and you are responsible for the safety of the world, so you must not take any risks!" Li Zhang refused very sternly. After saying that, he ignored Zhao Zhen and turned around and ran towards Miaoyuanguan.

Looking at Li Zhang's back as he was leaving, Zhao Zhen opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. Finally, he could only sigh helplessly. Li Zhang was right. He was the emperor, and his first priority was to protect himself when encountering danger, because if something happened to him, the world would be in chaos.
