Suddenly, the Yangxin Palace was in chaos, with the sounds of palace maids and eunuchs howling and running everywhere.
If the emperor died suddenly, they would all die. How could they not be afraid and cry?
"Boom boom~"
A few more violent thunders sounded in the sky, and each thunder frightened Yu Huaqian so much that his whole body trembled.
He looked up at the night sky nervously, wanting to run back into the house and hide, but he didn't dare leave Emperor Wu of Liang alone in the yard.
He didn't dare touch Emperor Wu of Liang's body, for fear that it would shatter into pieces.
Yu Huaqian took a deep breath and used trembling hands to check Emperor Wu of Liang's breath.
After feeling that Emperor Wu of Liang was still breathing weakly, Yu Huaqian suddenly collapsed to the ground, and his heart was relieved a little.
Just when Yu Huaqian breathed a sigh of relief, a long and wide bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky and struck towards the Yangxin Palace.
In an instant, a flame shot out from the Yangxin Palace and began to burn with a crackling sound.
Yu Huaqian's pupils trembled, his mind went blank, and he almost fainted.
He stared at the flames all over the sky of the Yangxin Palace with wide eyes, and his expression twisted instantly.
His body was shaking constantly and his throat was dry, as if someone was strangling him, and he couldn't make a sound.
After a while, Yu Huaqian finally yelled out in a hoarse voice,
"The fire is happening! Help come quickly..."
"The fire is going on... Come quickly, get some water..."
Yu Huaqian got up and stumbled out, yelling loudly.
The series of emergencies made Yu Huaqian's voice sore that it split into two parts.
The dumbfounded guards in the Yangxin Palace suddenly came to their senses and rushed to the well and the pond in the imperial garden with nervous expressions.
After seeing the guards going to put out the fire, Yu Huaqian turned around and ran back to the yard.
"Don't break~ Please don't break~"
Yu Huaqian muttered to himself and moved Emperor Wu of Liang towards the gate with trembling hands to prevent the Yangxin Palace from burning on him.
Yu Huaqian knelt beside Emperor Wu of Liang, looking at the raging fire with a pale face, and was shrouded in fear.
He was so scared that he was lucky that he didn't carry Emperor Wu of Liang back to the palace, otherwise, both he and Emperor Wu of Liang would have been killed by the blow.
The fire spread so quickly and so widely that it lit up the courtyard of the Hall of Mental Cultivation as if it were daytime.
The sky, which was originally filled with thunder, was now eerily quiet.
Apart from the crackling sound of the burning in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, there was no sound of lightning or thunder.
The guards were much faster than those old doctors.
After a while, the guards carried buckets of water and jumped over the eaves and walls to pour water into the Yangxin Palace.
Yu Huaqian looked at the spreading fire and felt anxious as if he was being fried in oil.
The palace is already poor enough, if it continues to burn like this, what will happen?
It's really like adding insult to injury.
At this time, the imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau were running breathlessly following the young eunuch towards the Yangxin Palace.
The imperial physicians all looked pale, and they all thought that Emperor Wu of Liang had passed away.
There is no record of anyone in history being struck by lightning and still surviving.
What a sin.
As a result, before the imperial doctors could reach the Yangxin Palace, they saw flames rising from the sky.
The imperial doctors were so shocked that they were speechless. How could there be a fire in the Yangxin Palace?
The young eunuchs were so frightened that their pupils trembled and they ran towards the Yangxin Palace.
The imperial physicians followed closely behind, carrying their medical boxes and gritting their teeth as they rushed towards the Yangxin Palace at an accelerated pace.
They could not help put out the fire, but Emperor Wu of Liang's life was closely related to them.
"Your Majesty! Wuwu~~"
The imperial doctors rushed into the gate of the Yangxin Palace and saw the dark-skinned person lying in front of Yu Huaqian at a glance.
Although the dark-skinned man's appearance could not be discerned, it was only Emperor Wu of Liang who was struck by lightning. The imperial doctors did not think anything else but rushed over and knelt on the ground, shouting in grief.
Yu Huaqian quickly took two steps to the side and said anxiously,
"Doctor Wei, please stop shouting and take a look at the Emperor."
Wei Jiquan paused for a moment and looked at the charred Emperor Wu of Liang. There was no point in looking any further.
He took a deep breath, made a bitter face, and felt Emperor Wu of Liang's pulse with trembling hands.
The moment he felt Emperor Wu of Liang's pulse, Wei Jiquan burst into tears of joy.
"The emperor is fine, great joy! The emperor is blessed by heaven and is in good health."
"Are you serious? Why hasn't the emperor woken up yet?" Yu Huaqian was suddenly delighted and asked quickly.
Wei Jiquan carefully felt Emperor Wu of Liang's pulse again and said, "He is indeed fine. It will take some time for him to wake up."
"Come and take a look, everyone."
Wei Jiquan called several imperial doctors behind him and asked them to come over and take a look one by one.
Then the imperial doctors discussed with each other and finally concluded that there was nothing wrong with Emperor Wu of Liang's health.
After hearing this, Yu Huaqian breathed a sigh of relief.
He pulled the corner of his mouth, his eyes fell on the dark face of Emperor Wu of Liang, and looked at Wei Jiquan worriedly.
"Doctor Wei, what about the emperor's face? Is that okay? It looks a bit burnt."
There's nothing wrong with the body, but the face looks seriously injured.
When Wei Jiquan saw Emperor Wu of Liang's face, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
His eyelids twitched rapidly a few times, he pursed his lips, and knelt down to crawl to the head of Emperor Wu of Liang.
He reached out and gently pressed Emperor Wu of Liang's face.
Fortunately, my face is elastic and not completely blurred.
Wei Jiquan let out a long sigh and gently rubbed Emperor Wu of Liang's face with his thumb.
As a result, not a single bit of the black skin on Emperor Wu of Liang's face was rubbed off.
Wei Jiquan asked his apprentice to light a lamp, and then he went closer and pulled up Emperor Wu of Liang's eyelids to take a look.
When he saw this, he was so frightened that his face turned pale.
When he was pulling at Emperor Wu's eyelids, his hand accidentally touched Emperor Wu's burnt hair.
In an instant, Emperor Wu of Liang's hair broke into pieces, and the debris fell all over the ground.
In an instant, Emperor Wu of Liang became bald, but his scalp was still pitch black.
This scene immediately frightened everyone present and made their eyes widen.
Yu Huaqian's eyes went dark and his head was buzzing.
His head was burned so black and he was still bald. Emperor Wu of Liang would be so angry when he woke up.
Wei Jiquan carefully examined Emperor Wu of Liang's head with trembling hands, and then applied moist burn ointment to Emperor Wu of Liang's entire head with trembling hands.
Yu Huaqian couldn't bear to look at the yellowish burn ointment smeared all over Emperor Wu of Liang's head. It was no different from smearing feces.
He couldn't even imagine how angry Emperor Wu of Liang would be when he woke up and saw the state of his head.
At this time, the fire in the Yangxin Palace was also put out by the palace guards.
However, the Yangxin Palace was also completely destroyed. It was burned so cleanly that it was nothing but black. The building collapsed into a mess.
...........
Lin Taotao, who was imprisoned in the Biyue Palace, rushed out of the room with a pale face the moment the thunder sounded.
She stood barefoot in the yard, looking at the night sky filled with thunder and lightning in shock.
