Prince of Chaos

Chapter 240

"The water is gone! The water is gone!"

Shrill and terrified voices resounded outside Qianqing Palace.

I saw the tall, magnificent and solemn Qianqing Palace bursting into flames!
All of a sudden, the entire sky of the Forbidden City was illuminated.

Zhu Changluo, who was resting in the Ciqing Palace, was woken up by the noise outside.

He pushed Li Xuan waiter beside him away, and then quickly sat up.

Li Xuan, who was pushed away, let out a groan, and then said in a greasy voice: "Your Highness, please forgive me, don't use such a shameful posture anymore, my body is about to fall apart."

However, what happened next was not the happy shaker that Li Xuan waited for, but instead, the bedside was empty.

Only then did Li Xuanshi open her eyes. She saw Zhu Changluo getting up in a panic and putting on her clothes and shoes by herself.

Li Xuan didn't know how to wait, so she hurriedly got up to serve, and the tulle-like pajamas on her body revealed her proud figure without a doubt.

However, Zhu Changluo didn't have any desire to appreciate it at this time.

Zhu Changluo looked in the direction of Qianqing Palace through the window, his heart was beating all the time.

He knew that there would be a fire in the Forbidden City in the past two years. Zhu Changluo couldn't remember whether it was the 24th or 25th year of Wanli.Zhu Changluo only knew that the fire happened at the beginning of the year.

However, it is now the turn of autumn and winter, and it is obvious that the time is not right.However, this fire light cannot deceive people.

Although Zhu Changluo also knew that Emperor Wanli would escape the fire, it was based on the fact that Zhu Changluo did not disrupt the historical trajectory.

Today's Emperor Wanli has been in a wheelchair for a long time, and his health is not particularly good because of suspected complications of diabetes.Moreover, Zhu Changluo would accompany Emperor Wanli in the Qianqing Palace every night before leaving.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo was 100% sure that Emperor Wanli would not leave the Qianqing Palace and go to other palaces.

It was precisely because of this that Zhu Changluo was terrified. He was afraid that something good or bad would happen to Emperor Wanli at this juncture.

Although, if something happened to Emperor Wanli, he would be able to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor logically.

However, once you become emperor, many things will not be as simple as they are now.

At that time, Zhu Changluo will have to face countless memorials from the government and civil officials. When he wants to do something, there will be endless resistance, and these resistances cannot be resolved by violence.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo was terrified.

Seeing the flustered Zhu Changluo, Li Xuanshi's heart trembled too. After she got off the bed, she immediately went to Zhu Changluo's side, "Your Highness, my concubine will help you change your clothes."

Zhu Changluo said: "No need. I can do it myself. You can put on your own clothes too."

Then, Zhu Changluo shouted loudly: "Come on, come on!"

After hearing Zhu Changluo's voice in Ciqing Palace, they rushed in immediately.

Zhu Changluo stood in front of everyone wearing a uniform, and he asked eagerly, "What's the situation outside?"

The little eunuch and the maids were at a loss and didn't know how to answer.

One said timidly: "Your Highness, it seems that there is water outside."

Seeing their panic, Zhu Changluo sighed angrily, knowing that it was useless to ask them.

So, Zhu Changluo quickly walked out of the bedroom, and Wei Zhongxian ran over as soon as he got outside.

After Wei Zhongxian saw Zhu Changluo, he hurriedly knelt down to speak.

Zhu Changluo said anxiously: "Don't kneel, tell me what's going on."

Wei Zhongxian said tremblingly: "It's flooded, the Qianqing Palace is flooded."

When Zhu Changluo heard that it was really the Qianqing Palace, his heart skipped a beat, and then he asked eagerly, "How is the father?"

Wei Zhongxian said: "The slave doesn't know, there is no news from the emperor yet."

Zhu Changluo's heart suddenly became cold. He was really afraid that something would happen to Emperor Wanli at this time.

Zhu Changluo couldn't stand still either, he immediately ran to take the seat of Qing Palace while pulling his belt.

Wei Zhongxian and the others immediately ran behind Zhu Changluo.

By the time Zhu Changluo ran to the Qianqing Palace, the Qianqing Palace had already been fully activated.

The whole building was in flames!Strangers are almost inaccessible.

When Zhu Changluo arrived here, he immediately saw a group of young eunuchs and guards who were burnt to ashes, with broken hair.

Zhu Changluo grabbed a little eunuch who often served in front of the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Changluo asked anxiously: "Where is the father?"

The little eunuch was shocked by Zhu Changluo's question and said in a trembling voice: "Slave. The slave didn't see the emperor."

Zhu Changluo thumped even more when he heard this, and then shouted at the top of his voice, "Hurry up and put out the fire!"

The terrified guards and eunuchs hurriedly used various tools to fetch water and put out the fire.

However, this kind of wooden building has already burned, and splashing this little water on it will not help at all.

Zhu Changluo looked at the growing fire, his pupils were full of panic.

Zhu Changluo didn't stay still, he rushed towards the Qianqing Palace with the bucket in his arms, but when he was about to rush, Wei Zhongxian beside him grabbed Zhu Changluo's arm tightly.

Wei Zhongxian shouted hoarsely: "Master, don't move lightly! You are the son of Wanjin! If anything happens, the slave will not be able to explain to the emperor."

Zhu Changluo pushed Wei Zhongxian and said angrily, "Go away! I'm going to save my father!"

Wei Zhongxian was rolled on the ground by Zhu Changluo, but he immediately crawled over and hugged Zhu Changluo's thigh, and shouted tearfully: "Master, you can't go!"

At this time, the eunuchs and guards who reacted surrounded Zhu Changluo, they really didn't dare to let Zhu Changluo rush into the fire with a bucket in his arms.

In case, there is something good or bad, even if the nine clans are wiped out, they will not regret it.

Surrounded by so many people, Zhu Changluo yelled anxiously, finally wept bitterly, and shouted towards Qianqing Palace: "Father, Father!"

The sound was extremely shrill.

When the love was deep, Zhu Changluo didn't catch it all at once, and got angry.

This time, everyone present was in a hurry, and they immediately supported Zhu Changluo and shouted: "Prince and emperor!"

Zhu Changluo woke up from being pinched by Wei Zhongxian. At this time, someone shouted again: "Kunning Palace is flooded."

When Zhu Changluo heard that Kunning Palace was also on fire, he was also terrified.

Zhu Changluo immediately said to the people around him: "Hurry up, hurry up, go to Kunning Palace to save the queen mother!"

Overnight, the entire Forbidden City was filled with chaos.

Qian Qing, Kun Ning's second palace caught fire, and all the people in the Forbidden City were extremely tense all of a sudden.

There was an urgent knock on the door outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Emperor Wanli, who was awakened in a daze in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, sat up, and beside him lay a beautiful concubine.

Emperor Wanli snorted twice, and then called out: "People come, people, what's the noise outside?"

Sun Xian, who was on duty outside, came in immediately.

Looking at the awakened Emperor Wanli, he couldn't help shrinking his head.

Then, with a trembling voice, he said, "My lord, it seems that there is water outside."

Emperor Wanli snorted, and then asked, "Where is the water?"

Sun Xian said: "It seems to be in the direction of Qianqing Palace."

Hearing this, Emperor Wanli was shocked and his drowsiness disappeared.

He couldn't believe it and asked, "What?"

Emperor Wanli was terrified. He has always lived in the Qianqing Palace, so tonight he somehow became interested, so he secretly let Sun Xian take him to the Yangxin on the west side of the Qianqing Palace. Here in the hall, a concubine was summoned to attend the bed, soothe the body and mind, and relieve the fatigue of this period of time.

Not to mention, this method is easy to use. Just after a few movements, Emperor Wanli felt refreshed, and then accompanied by a burst of refreshment, Emperor Wanli fell asleep peacefully.

Who would have thought that such a big thing would happen after not sleeping for a long time.

How could this allow Emperor Wanli to continue to sleep.

Emperor Wanli immediately said: "Quickly change my clothes and take me to see the situation."

Sun Xian didn't dare to neglect, and immediately came over to help Emperor Wanli change his clothes.

Emperor Wanli asked while changing his clothes: "How is the prince?"

Sun Xian said, "I don't know."

Emperor Wanli was in a hurry, "Hurry up. Chang Luo, a silly boy, don't rush into the fire. If he does something wrong, my crime will be serious."

At this time, Emperor Wanli actually cared about Zhu Changluo the most, and was worried that Zhu Changluo would rush into the fire to save him because of the fire in Qianqing Palace.

It can be seen how much the current Emperor Wanli loves Zhu Changluo.
