My father is Jiajing

Chapter 343 I'm in a great mood

"Something big has happened to the prince!"

Late at night, Zhu Zaigui had already gone to bed in Zhihua Courtyard, and fell asleep with his head resting on Sihua's arm, which was as beautiful as a beautiful jade.

But at such a quiet moment, Meng Chong's voice sounded like a fat pig about to be slaughtered. Not only was his voice sharp, but it was also full of control.

When Zhu Zaigui heard Meng Chong's scream, he was suddenly awakened and looked at Si Hua who was also awakened.

"Go, light the lights first."

Zhu Zaigui ordered the person beside him around without any courtesy.

Si Hua did not dare to hesitate, she stood up and groped her way to the outside of the embroidered couch. Regardless of her shyness about revealing her spring light, she quickly lit the candle outside the bedroom.

Zhu Zaigui also sat up straight at this moment, and Si Hua hurried over to take Zhu Zaigui's coat and put it on him.

Zhu Zaiqi looked at Si Hua, who was only wearing a few pieces of clothing, and said gently, "You should take a rest first. I'll go see what happened."

Si Hua nodded obediently, then pulled the silk quilt on the embroidered couch to cover her body.

Zhu Zaiqi glanced at Si Hua's actions and smiled, "What are you afraid of? There are only you and me in the room. Even if you cover it up, I know what's going on inside."

When Si Hua heard what Zhu Zaigui said, her pretty face immediately turned red, especially when illuminated by the candlelight outside, she looked even more beautiful.

However, this was not the time for Zhu Zaigui to appreciate Si Hua's beauty. He casually pulled his coat around his waist, then walked out of the house.

At this moment, Meng Chong was standing at the door of the Sihua courtyard with an anxious look on his face. When he saw Zhu Zaigui coming out of the house, he hurried over to greet him.

Meng Chong said anxiously: "Something big has happened to the prince!"

Looking at Meng Chong's expression and his panicked voice, Zhu Zaigui seemed to have seen it once before, but he couldn't remember when.

Zhu Zaigui asked, "What happened?"

Meng Chong pointed in the direction of Xiyuan, his voice still a little frightened, "Your Highness, look over there."

Zhu Zaigui turned around and looked in the direction of Xiyuan where Meng Chong was pointing.

It wouldn't have been a big deal if he turned his head, but it also scared Zhu Zaigui.

I saw flames rising into the sky from the direction of Xiyuan, and the entire sky was illuminated by the red flames.

Zhu Zaiqi couldn't help but take a deep breath, "What's going on?"

Meng Chong said anxiously, "It looks like there's a fire in the West Garden."

Zhu Zaigui looked at the flames rising into the sky and tried to calm himself down. "Don't panic, don't panic. It's just a fire. Where's your majesty?"

Zhu Zaigui finally looked up and asked Meng Chong a crucial question.

Meng Chong was stunned for a moment by Zhu Zaigui's question, and then he replied without any relief: "God bless you, the emperor has gone to the Changping Imperial Mausoleum."

When Zhu Zaigui heard what Meng Chong said, his mind suddenly became calm and flexible.

If the Taoist priest went to Changping, no matter how big the fire was, it would not burn him. Therefore, Zhu Zaigui calmly said, "Send someone to Changping to report to your majesty immediately, and send someone to watch the West Garden. Anyone who dares to leave the West Garden privately at this time will be arrested on the spot! I must put out the fire in the West Garden before your majesty returns, and arrest any suspects and wait for your majesty's decision."

As soon as Zhu Zaigui gave the order, Meng Chong quickly responded with a "yes", but then Meng Chong also said: "Your Majesty, we have no right to mobilize troops."

After hearing what Meng Chong said, Zhu Zaigui's attitude turned cold. "In an emergency, you should act according to your will. Go directly to the Fourth Guard Camp. Almost everyone there knows you. I don't believe that they will not even recognize my orders now."

Feeling Zhu Zaigui's attitude suddenly turn cold, he suddenly remembered the general "Zhu San" who led tens of thousands of soldiers to fight bloody battles in the suburbs of Beijing a few years ago.

Meng Chong did not dare to hesitate any longer. Even though Zhu Zaigui's order would bring endless trouble, Meng Chong was not afraid at this time.

Because he knew that this was the prince's spirit!
Normally, the prince may not care about anything and even be willing to say anything, but if anyone dares to let him down at a critical moment, the consequences will be obvious.

So, Meng Chong did not hesitate any more and hurried to the Imperial Stables, found the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Stables and the eunuch in charge of the Four Guards, and conveyed Zhu Zaigui's order to them.

These people were also Zhu Zaigui's subordinates who had followed him to fight in the suburbs of Beijing. However, under the manipulation of Emperor Jiajing, all traces of Zhu Zaigui in the suburbs of Beijing were wiped out, and he escaped using the identity of "Zhu San".

But these people all know that the iron-blooded and invincible young champion is Prince Yu.

So when Zhu Zaigui's order arrived, they immediately blocked the exits of all the palace gates in the Western Garden as the imperial guards, preventing anyone in the Western Garden from escaping in the chaos.

At the same time, these people also took on the responsibility of protecting the scene and not allowing anyone to approach the burning palace.

Yan Shifan's East Building Villa.

Yan Shifan looked at the fire in the direction of Xiyuan and felt very happy.

"Hahaha, with this fire, who can stop the emperor from repairing the palace?"

Yan Shifan was in a very good mood, as if the fire was a blessing from heaven, which instantly turned all his plans and ideas into reality.

At the same time, all the ministers in the cabinet woke up from their sleep at the urgent call of their respective butlers.

Yan Song suddenly sat up from the bed, and the two maids who acted as pillows and foot pads beside him also moved their bodies gently to allow Yan Song to get up more smoothly.

At this time, Yan Song's old butler also entered Yan Song's bedroom with a light, and said, "Lord, there is a fire in the West Garden."

Yan Song turned his head and looked at the old butler who had been with him for many years. A gleam flashed in his eyes and he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "When did it happen?"

The old housekeeper said, "Just now, a beam of fire suddenly rose from the direction of the West Garden. It looks like the fire is quite big."

Yan Song thought for a while, then said thankfully: "Fortunately, Your Majesty is not in Xiyuan. It is really the blessing of our ancestors!"

Then Yan Song said to the old housekeeper, "Help me up and change my clothes, then go and notify Xu Jie, Lu Ben and the others to come over. We must immediately discuss a countermeasure to relieve your majesty's worries."

The old housekeeper helped Yan Song to stand up. "I have sent someone to call them. Just now, a servant came to tell me that the people from the Imperial Stables have also started to move. They are also heading towards the West Garden. They should be going to put out the fire."

When Yan Song heard what the old butler said, he couldn't help but pause.

It seems that the Imperial Stables are not responsible for catching fire?
But Yan Song's mind was a little confused at this time, and as the imperial guards of the inner palace, it seemed understandable that the Imperial Stables were so enthusiastic about putting out the fire.
