Before the captain could finish his words, Hu Yi pushed him away, and while taking off his armor, he shouted: "Bring me the quilt!"
Soon the thick quilt was draped on Hu Yi's body. More than a dozen buckets of water were poured on the quilt. The wet quilt weighed hundreds of kilograms, but this weight was nothing to Hu Yi, who had practiced Kung Fu to the realm of transformation.
.
Hu Yi, whose eyes were red, rushed directly into the sea of fire like a wild bull.
As the commander of the imperial army, Hu Yi's previous incident with the queen could be regarded as his dereliction of duty. However, the emperor also knew that Hu Yi was not to blame and pardoned his crime.
Now that the emperor was assassinated in the palace, no matter what happened to the emperor in the end, Hu Yi, the commander of the imperial army, was the biggest derelict in his duty.
If the Emperor were still alive, perhaps the Emperor would be given a lighter sentence. If something happened to the Emperor, then he, the commander of the imperial army, would definitely not be able to escape the liquidation. Even confiscating his family and annihilating his clan would be considered a minor matter.
With a rumble, Hu Yi rushed into the sea of fire wearing a soaked quilt. Even the air was so hot under the scorching fire.
Fortunately, although Hu Yi has not reached the innate realm, he has practiced kung fu and his Qi veins are extremely long. Even if he does not practice the turtle breath method, he can still sustain it for a long time with one breath.
It can even be said that many burning beams fell, and Hu Yi narrowly avoided them. For some flying wood, Hu Yi didn't even dodge and directly hit them.
The body that was hard to be damaged by swords and guns was not afraid of the mere impact of sticks. In just a few dozen breaths, Hu Yi knocked open the door of the palace that had begun to burn, and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
After a violent cough, Hu Yi took a breath of hot breath and almost fainted due to choking. However, there was no response from the palace.
Hu Yi couldn't help but go forward and search, but found nothing except that the huge screen had been moved.
With a focused gaze, Hu Yi wrapped himself in a quilt and headed directly towards the depths of Qianqing Palace. In his opinion, the emperor must have seen the fire sealing the door and fled to the depths of the palace.
In an open space in front of the Qianqing Palace, Gu Dayong, who had rushed over after receiving the news, was roaring at Chen Du and others. His sharp scolding voice was so eye-catching among the crackling fire.
"Trash, you are all trash... If anything happens to Your Majesty, we will chop off your heads one by one before we go to accompany Your Majesty!"
At the same time, Gu Dayong screamed at the Forbidden Army soldiers: "Hurry up, if you can't put out the fire, we will throw you into the Qianqing Palace..."
At this moment, the eunuch in charge of Kunning Palace came in a hurry and saw the raging fire. His expression changed, and he walked a few steps forward: "Chief Gu, the queen ordered the servants to come and ask, how is your majesty?"
Gu Dayong took a deep breath, glanced at the eunuch in charge, and said, "Mr. Liu, go and reply to the queen, and tell me that the old slave and others are searching for your majesty's whereabouts. Your majesty is guarded by Master Shao, so there will be no accidents.
"
The eunuch in charge of Kunning Palace took one look at the raging fire and sighed in his heart. In such a fire, not to mention a real Shao, even if he was an immortal descending to earth, he would probably be burned to ashes in such a fire.
After bowing his hands to Gu Dayong, Manager Liu said to Gu Dayong: "In this case, I will go and report to the Empress Ming to reassure the Empress."
Gu Dayong nodded, glanced at Manager Liu, and said sternly: "We must not inform the Empress about what is going on here, and we must not let the Empress get pregnant. This matter is of great importance, do you understand?"
The chief eunuch felt awe in his heart. He knew very well that if something unexpected happened to the emperor, then the dragon in the queen's belly might be the hope of the Ming Dynasty. If something happened to the queen, then Xiaozong The emperor's direct lineage may be cut off at this point.
The fire in the palace was soaring into the sky, especially the roar. Although it was not that obvious when it was heard outside the palace, the fire couldn't be more obvious in the middle of the night.
The entire Qianqing Palace was burning like a huge torch, which lit up the sky above the Forbidden City in the dark night, attracting the attention of many people.
All the civil and military officials in Beijing, it can be said that among the large and small palaces, anyone who noticed the fire in the palace was alarmed. They chose a suitable position one by one to look towards the direction of the Forbidden City. Many people looked at the fire and didn't know what to think. , faintly showing excitement.
There were also a group of loyal officials who looked at the raging fire and their expressions became extremely ugly, their eyes full of worry.
In a mansion, the high attic is enough to overlook the direction of the Forbidden City.
At this moment, in this attic, two figures were sitting opposite each other. The tea in front of them exuded the fragrance of tea, but they had no intention to taste the tea. After a dozen breaths, they were looking towards the direction of the Forbidden City. One glance.
These two people were Duke Mu Zhai and the old man in purple robe. The old man in purple robe looked towards the Forbidden City, his eyes full of worry. On the contrary, Duke Mu Zhai was stroking his beard, sitting there as steady as a mountain, and glanced at his disciple. Said: "Don't worry, those three people are carefully selected by everyone to die. Even if they are placed in the arena, they are comparable to first-class experts. Moreover, there are our people among the patrolling Forbidden Army to support them and sneak into them." Qianqing Palace is not a problem at all."
How could the purple-robed old man not know this? If Mu Zhaigong hadn't told him, he really wouldn't have dared to imagine that these people's abilities were so terrifying, and that there were even people in the palace.
Even the imperial army guarding the imperial city has been infiltrated. In this case, not to mention two or three people sneaking in, even if there are a few more people, they will be invisible.
With a sigh, the purple-robed old man said: "They committed regicide so blatantly, even if a new king is established in the future, aren't they afraid of the new king's counterattack?"
Duke Mu Zhai stroked his beard and smiled slightly: "The new emperor will at most cleanse the Forbidden City. Unless the new emperor wants to repeat the same mistakes, otherwise..."
The old man in purple robe shrank his eyes and was extremely shocked.
This purple-robed old man would never have imagined that even if Chu Yi hadn't come in to disrupt everything, after Liu Jin was impeached by hundreds of officials and sentenced to death, Zhengde would be stationed in Datong, focusing on seizing military power, but he accidentally fell into the water and became ill. You must know that Zhengde fell into the water. At that time, he was in his prime. Historical records record: The emperor (the founder of the sect) traveled east and west, covering thousands of miles, riding horses, carrying bows and arrows, wading through dangers and winds and snow. His followers suffered from many illnesses, but the emperor showed no signs of fatigue. Such wind, cold, snow and rain He was able to bear it all, but he could easily get sick after falling into the water. No one could help but doubt it.
The most frightening thing is that after he really fell into the water, all his close friends such as Qian Ning and Jiang Bin were transferred away. After returning to the capital, the imperial doctor treated Zhengde, but his condition became worse and worse with each treatment.
When Zhu Houzhao realized that something was wrong and asked Yang Tinghe to recruit good folk doctors, Yang Tinghe actually said: "It is true that all the famous doctors in the world gathered in the imperial hospital, and the best ones were selected to be admitted to the imperial pharmacy, but they should be full-time and trustworthy, and since If it has a perfect effect, why should it be treated by those who have not tried it yet? In terms of the treatment of diseases, the treatment of diseases is the first, and the medicine is second. If the adjustment and intake are rare and irregular, the medicine will not be effective. I hope that the emperor will be careful to reopen the place and do not use it. After work and rest, it is advisable to adjust your diet and diet to avoid excessive taste."
The fact that Yang Tinghe prevented Zhu Houzhao from changing the imperial physician was recorded in the Ming Dynasty records. Zhengde's death is full of doubts.
These people united and were able to isolate even the Forbidden City, causing the emperor to lose contact with the outside world. It is conceivable that sending a few assassins into the palace would not be a simple matter?
At this moment, a sound like muffled thunder came from the direction of the Forbidden City. Hearing the roar, Mu Zhaigong stroked his beard, showed a bit of joy on his face, clapped his hands and exclaimed: "It's a big deal!"
The old man in purple robe softened and leaned on the seat, his eyes full of confusion.
Soon, flames shot into the sky in the direction of the Forbidden City, illuminating the sky above the Forbidden City.
Mu Zhaigong looked at the direction of the Forbidden City. The blazing fire was like the most beautiful scenery in the world. He couldn't help but admired: "What a fire. Burn it. It will burn cleanly. Tomorrow, the world will be bright again..."
Looking back from the direction of the Forbidden City, Mu Zhaigong looked at the old man in purple robe who was looking blank and said: "Jingzhi, as the elder of the cabinet, when the emperor collapses and the government and the public are in turmoil, you must unite the imperial court and the Chinese military to invite the queen mother. It is best to reestablish a new king to stabilize the overall situation of the world."
Jiang Mian came back to his senses and said with a bit of surprise on his face: "The Queen still has a dragon son in her belly. This is the blood of the royal family. How can we casually establish a new king?"
There was a hint of disdain in the corner of Mu Zhaigong's mouth and he said: "The queen is only less than two months pregnant. As the saying goes, a country cannot live without a king for a day. How can the throne be left vacant for more than half a year? What's more, what if the queen has a dragon son in her belly?" That’s fine, if it’s a princess…”
Jiang Mian took a deep breath, looked in the direction of the Forbidden City and said, "This matter is of great importance. Only when news comes out from the palace can we make a decision."
Muzhaigong said with determination: "In order to get rid of this foolish king, through internal cooperation, dozens of kilograms of carefully matched gunpowder were transported in. Once exploded, no grass would be left within a few feet, not even Zhu Houzhao. If you don't get blown up, you'll get burned alive by the fire."
At the same time, it was impossible for Jiao Fang not to notice such a big movement in the palace where the chief minister of the cabinet, Jiao Fang, was. At this moment, Jiao Fang was standing on the attic of his house, looking in the direction of the Forbidden City, looking at the blazing fire, With a look of horror on his face, he murmured softly: "Lord Governor, why don't you come back? If something happens to Your Majesty, things may change today!"
With a crash, the Qianqing Palace was completely reduced to ashes and burned for most of the night. In the end, the fire was not extinguished and the entire Qianqing Palace was reduced to ashes.
The Empress Dowager Zhang and the Empress Luan Jia appeared in front of the Qianqing Palace. Looking at the ruins, the two women almost fainted on the spot.
