240 Flame Dragon

Yan Song followed the emperor's chariot, which was a special honor.

Because in addition to him, a hairy boy, the others who followed the emperor's chariot were also at least third-grade masters.

Since then, Yan Song has won the favor of the emperor, and he can be regarded as standing out from the crowd in a group of Hanlin.

……

Closely following the emperor's chariot, of course, Changning is indispensable.

So Chang Ninghou looked at Yan Song, who was not far behind him, and felt an invisible pressure.

After all, the two of them are enemies.

Last time in Pengzhou Mansion, Changning Hou let the Yan family father and son suffer a big dumb loss, not only released the eldest son, but also lost a lot of money.

It can be said that Chang Ninghou stepped the Yan family's face deeply into the mud.

This beam is not deep.

If Yan Song is favored because of other things, Chang Ninghou will not be worried.

Because other things are favored, they are often favored quickly, and they fall out of favor faster.

Only the green words make Changning wait like a thorn in the back.

After all, the emperor is a good Taoist, and Qingzi is the top priority.

is also favored, but Yan Song's favor is deeper than Changninghou's heart.

Thinking about Zhang Gongmao, who was promoted all the way to the cabinet because of Qingzi, Chang Ninghou felt that if Yan Song was honed and honed in the officialdom, as long as he didn't make big mistakes, then his chances of entering the cabinet were very high!

According to the official system of the empire, Changning Hou, as a military general, is still very difficult to compete with cabinet members.

Unless the border pass is suddenly stormy, he can become the commander of the three armies at the border pass.

However, now that the situation around the empire is stable, there seems to be no sign of a sudden storm.

Chang Ninghou feels that the direction of the development of things is a little out of his control!

At the moment, he needs a chance to make a meritorious performance.

……

Changning waited for the opportunity he needed, and it didn't take two days to come.

Although the Jiao Festival was held in the Purple Mountain, and the exquisite green words were burned to the heavens, the emperor still encountered a big trouble.

On the last night of Yingtian, the emperor's temporary palace suddenly caught fire.

Since he was not in the capital this time, the emperor didn't even tell Chang Ninghou which room he lived in for safety.

For the sake of safety, it turned out to be unsafe.

Because when the fire started, the wind was still very strong.

The fire borrowed the wind, it was really full of fire, and the small half of Ying Tianfu was almost red, looking at the inside of the fire, crackling and burning, and the civil and military officials were blind.

Because no one knows where the emperor is.

When a group of civil and military officials were helpless, Chang Ninghou and Lu Bing drenched their bodies, glanced at each other, and plunged into the fire.

At this time, Lu Bing is not for a reward, but for the bottom of his heart, to rescue the emperor.

After all, the emperor and him are compatriots.

It's a deep feeling.

And on the other hand, only when this compatriot emperor is in power, can Lu Bing have the opportunity to be the biggest official and get the greatest benefits.

So when he rushed into the fire, he did not hesitate.

And Chang Ninghou, the idea is different.

As the leader of the emperor's personal guard, it is his duty to rescue the emperor.

Originally, he regarded this fire as an opportunity to perform meritorious service, but when he rushed into the fire, the fire was hot and steamed, and Chang Ninghou changed his thinking.

From the bottom of his heart, he hated the emperor's superstitious Taoism.

It's not because of this, Yan Song is a small Hanlin, and there will be no chance to turn over at all.

Moreover, Chang Ninghou and the little prince have a very close relationship.

Because Tao Zi'an Duan used it in front of the emperor, he said that the two dragons should not meet each other, and the emperor and the crown prince have not met once for several years.

The little prince lacked fatherly love and complained deeply about the emperor.

Of course, he didn't dare to show it, but Chang Ninghou was often sent by the emperor to spy on the little prince, so the little prince resented the emperor, and Chang Ninghou knew about it.

However, he did not report this to the emperor.

This is a back road left by Chang Ninghou for himself.

Moreover, the little prince also hated the emperor's superstitious Taoism.

If the emperor is burned to death and the little prince comes to power, then it is a better choice for Chang Ninghou.

He had already shown his loyalty in front of the little prince.

Therefore, after Chang Ninghou rushed into the fire, he was not as active as Lu Bing.

……

Huang Jin stayed in the palace this time and did not follow the southern tour.

If he had been there, he would have rushed into the fire.

After Lu Bing and Chang Ninghou rushed into the fire, the other officials couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh when they looked at the fire, the rooms that had been burned off the beams and kept collapsing.

Some of them have even begun to think about how to compete for the establishment of the little prince after returning to Beijing.

After all, the new emperor ascended the throne and supported the meritorious service, which was a good deal.

Of course, there are also some officials who usually support Erlong in order to curry favor with the emperor, and they don't want the little prince to ascend the throne.

Just when the officials had their own ideas, Lu Bing actually carried the emperor behind his back and rushed out of the fire.

After the examination of the imperial doctor, the emperor was fine except that he was fainted.

And Lu Bing's calves were peeled off by the pine oil stuck to the legs, and the burned skin and flesh were peeled off, which looked miserable.

In any case, the emperor was rescued.

Whether it was the official who hoped that the emperor would be rescued just now, or the official who was thinking about supporting the little prince, at this time, they all shouted long live and said something about God bless the empire.

……

Chang Ninghou in the fire, hearing the cheers outside, knew that the emperor had been rescued, so the road to the throne of the little prince was still long.

He sighed, and then rushed out of the fire.

A girder fell.

Chang Ninghou was completely sure to dodge, but he still deliberately took a step slow and let Fang Liang rub his back and smash it, so that the clothes on his back were shattered and his skin was scratched.

So Chang Ninghou, who rushed out of the fire, lay down in front of the imperial doctor along with the emperor and Lu Bing.

……

After the emperor sobered up, he first praised Lu Bing and then praised Chang Ninghou.

In his opinion, although Chang Ninghou did not rescue him directly, he was loyal.

There were so many civil and military officials accompanying him, but there were only two who rushed into the fire, and the emperor actually felt that his face was a little unbearable at this time.

It can be seen that he is not very popular in ordinary times.

He didn't show it, though.

As an emperor, there are some things that you can understand in your heart, but saying them will damage your image.

The emperor thought for a while, and then asked Lu Bing: "Lu Aiqing, there are so many people here, they don't know where I am, how did you find me?" ”

Lu Bing looked at himself, his calf that had just been wrapped in medicine, and replied:

"The minister saw that in the smoke of the fire, a burst of dragon qi flashed, and then rushed straight to where the dragon qi was, and then he found His Majesty, and fortunately was blessed by the dragon qi, so he rushed out of the fire, and His Majesty is a real dragon!"

When Chang Ning heard this, he hurriedly echoed: "The minister also saw the dragon qi, but because the beams collapsed, he was a step late......"

Lu Bing and Chang Ninghou's words not only covered up the emperor's embarrassment at this time, but also added fire to the emperor's statement that he was a dragon.

This is really too level!

So Long Yan was happy.

……

After the emperor returned to Beijing, a holy decree came down, and Lu Bing sat on the throne of the commander of the Jinyi Guard.

Not a single person objected this time.

Because the merit is higher than the Savior, Lu Bing is a perfect Savior this time.

Although Changning Hou was not promoted to a knighthood, the emperor also gave him a lot of rewards, and his trust in him also had a deep change.

At least his whereabouts are no longer hidden from Chang Ninghou.

……

The emperor was in the capital, saw Wen Chaotian's twists and turns, and had a deep impression of Wen Chaotian's name.

Although it is only a four-grade local prefect, this prefect is very worry-free.

So in his reply, the emperor praised Wen Chaotian.

……

After the recital was sent, Wen Chaotian did not wait for a reply, but first waited for the news of the fire in the emperor's temporary palace.

He was very worried, lest the emperor make a mistake.

Fortunately, the emperor was fine.

It didn't take long for the reply letter to come again, and Wen Chaotian saw that in the reply letter, the emperor did not hesitate to praise him, and he knew that he was one step closer to Ying Tianfu.
