Qingning Palace is the residence of Empress Dowager Zhou.
Both the current Emperor Hongzhi and the former Emperor Xianzong were very filial to her.
Oh, by the way, she is the concubine of the Tumu Fort War God.
This battle feels like a long time ago, but there is still such an old man alive in the palace.
Zhu Houzhao thought of this incident when he accompanied Queen Zhang to Qingning Palace.
I was thinking about when I would become familiar with her old man, and asked about what happened back then, to see what kind of decision-making process my ancestors used to do such unreliable things.
It’s a terrible trap for future generations of them.
The Empress Dowager Zhou is also a kind old man. After all, she is so old. Moreover, when her husband was captured by the enemy and came back, he died early when he came back. Her son also died early. After experiencing so many miseries in life, what do you think of her? What else do you want?
Every day I eat fast, recite Buddha's name, and cook... my great-grandchildren.
Therefore, Yu Zhu Houzhao also loves him equally.
Now that the little guy is willing to take the initiative to accompany her to relieve her boredom, she is naturally very happy.
It's just that before I finished talking about the card technique, there was suddenly some commotion outside.
Zhu Houzhao also looked at the eunuchs who hurried over with a strange look.
"The Empress Dowager, the Long Live Mountain Yuxiu Pavilion has been compromised! Please prepare yourself, the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and Your Highness. You must not evacuate to another place temporarily."
Long Live Mountain is actually the back garden, which is quite close to the harem.
On the contrary, the front is farther.
"Where is the emperor?" Empress Dowager Zhou asked immediately.
"Your Majesty is in Qianqing Palace."
In this case, everyone's minds will be more stable. After all, the distance between the three main halls is far. If you were walking around in the back garden, it would be scary.
"Your Majesty, come to the Queen Mother quickly." Queen Zhang's heart tightened. She threw the cards in her hand and hugged Zhu Houzhao in her arms. "Your Majesty, don't be afraid. The Queen Mother will always be with you."
There was some commotion outside, and as a mother, she didn't want her children to experience any danger at all, so she tightly covered Zhu Houzhao's face in her chest, not letting him see or listen.
However, Zhu Houzhao was not panicked, "Mother, if something goes wrong, we need to gather people to put out the fire. The incident happened suddenly. I don't know if they can handle it properly. I want to direct them."
"Nonsense!" No matter how much Empress Zhang loved her son, she would not allow this. "Are you going out to scare the Queen Mother to death?"
Empress Dowager Zhou also objected, "Zhao'er, just stay by the Queen's side and never leave her."
"Okay." Zhu Houzhao sighed, "Those people really got it right..."
The old man's ears twitched, "What did Zhao'er say?"
"Grandma, someone and Zhao'er said before that the eunuch Li Guang asked his father to build too much, which is against the will of God. Sooner or later, there will be punishment. Now, the Yuxiu Pavilion is leaking before it is built. …”
Empress Dowager Zhou's heart moved. It turned out that it was related to the government, but her eyes were calm. She didn't think about Zhu Houzhao having any special thoughts about a child. She just touched his head and said, "Zhao'er do not be afraid."
After a while, there still seemed to be red in the sky, and someone came over and asked them to evacuate quickly.
Although it's not too close, it's just for safety's sake.
The Empress Dowager Zhou also said, "Let's make a move and go to the emperor's side so that he doesn't worry about us."
"Yes!" everyone responded.
When Emperor Hongzhi heard about it, his first reaction was the same as that of Qingning Palace, which was to ask his family what they were doing.
When I learned that Zhu Houzhao was coming from Qingning Palace with the Queen and the Queen Mother, I felt relieved.
The follow-up is nothing more than putting out the fire quickly.
The Forbidden City is a wooden structure building.
So I'm afraid of fire.
Precisely because we are afraid of fire, we all have ways to put out fires. Although there are no fire engines, there are large tanks everywhere in the palace, and the water in them is used to extinguish fires.
It’s a pity that Yuxiuting,
A good pavilion was burned down.
There were originally many ministers who were opposed to it, but now it's better...it's a lot of trouble again.
"Send Li Guang over here!"
…
…
When Zhu Houzhao, the empress, and the empress dowager arrived at the Qianqing Palace late, Li Guang was already kneeling when he saw the emperor.
After a normal greeting, make sure the important people are okay.
The Queen Mother opened her mouth and asked Li Guang: "Have you found out the cause of the leakage?"
It’s not like Zhu Houzhao has never seen Li Guang kneel before.
That day, this old man with white hair and a sense of immortality had already knelt down in the East Palace.
But I didn't kneel as well as I do now.
Now he is curled up into a ball, and his body bones seem to be trembling a little.
Oh, maybe it's because it's cold.
"Reporting to the Empress Dowager... I think it is caused by the dry weather in late autumn and early winter."
Zhu Houzhao was by the emperor's side at the moment, and the emperor held his hand, hoping that the child would at least not be frightened.
But at this moment, the emperor felt his son's hand tighten, and it was obvious that he felt something when he squeezed it.
"In that case, wouldn't there be a fire in the palace every late autumn and early winter? Father, what should we do...?"
Li Guang now regrets so much that he wants to die.
He really wanted to give himself a big mouth! They spent a damn long time discussing how to trouble the prince! Your brain is broken!
"Your Highness... Your Highness, don't worry, this... it's not common for things to happen in the palace..."
"It's not common. It seems that Eunuch Li was just unlucky and he bumped into you."
As soon as these words came out, Li Guang's face turned pale instantly.
In fact, if you are someone else, the word "bad luck" is used to help make excuses!
But in his case, this word is fatal!
Because he originally deceived the emperor, doing some "strange recipes and secret techniques", which focused on gods, ghosts, and mysteries.
To put it bluntly, he should be the person who brings good luck to the emperor when he is unlucky.
Now you bring bad luck to yourself and bring harm to the palace, so that's okay!
If Li Guang had never been in contact with the prince, he would probably think that it was childish talk.
But he had already had a confrontation with the crown prince, and he made two seemingly ordinary but fatal words in a row. He was sure that all of this was arranged by the crown prince!
However, he really didn't expect the prince's move to be so ruthless and decisive.
Originally, the trick of making gods and ghosts was the most trusted by the emperor. Ordinary people could not change the emperor's mind at all, because you can't see this thing, and you can't say it doesn't exist. What if? The emperor would also have concerns, what if?
But the prince was able to find a way in such a short period of time and seek trouble for him in the most critical place.
Such a plan, such words...
Li Guang already felt a hint of trembling.
Over there, Empress Dowager Zhou also believed in this. She had been serving Buddhists and Taoists all her life. "The emperor trusted Li Guang so much. He said what Li Guang did today, and tomorrow he also said what Li Guang did. Finally, the disaster was brought to him. ”
The old one and the young one,
It's all about 'luck'.
Emperor Hongzhi was indeed a little upset after hearing this, especially when he thought that there would be an endless stream of memorials from ministers saying that this was a decree from heaven, which made him even more headache.
"What grandma said is that the grandson has learned a lesson."
The words of the Empress Dowager Zhou made Li Guang feel despair, which would make it possible for the emperor to kill him!
The emperor turned around and didn't look good on Li Guang. He waved his hand and told him to get out, "Okay, Li Guang, don't kneel here anymore. Go quickly and see how Yuxiu Pavilion and my back garden have been burned down." To what extent. Also, you have been more honest recently, so don’t cause me any more trouble!"
"Slave, I obey..." Li Guang felt the emperor's impatience, and the lines he had planned to cry in front of the emperor were no longer used.
With his robe dragging the floor and his figure stooped, he swayed out of the hall.
Outside the temple are majestic and majestic buildings. Walking here naturally feels spacious and majestic, but everyone who is inside knows that it is actually shocking every step of the way.
Today, Li Guang suffered a big blow!
