C3 Self-deception

Wealth silently cursed Fortune in his heart. However, he respectfully said, "Thank you for your reward, Your Highness!" Then, he expressionlessly retreated to the side of Fu Cheng.

Prime Minister Fu's pupils contracted from time to time as he looked at Prince Wu and then at Wealth. He noticed that Prince Wu was only paying attention to the fire and did not pay attention to him. As for Fugui, he stood there respectfully with his eyes fixed on the fire. There wasn't much expression on his face, so it was hard to tell what he was thinking. Then, he turned around to look at the Eighteenth Prince. Eighteenth Prince's face kept changing, from time to time he would use his eyes to look at Prince Wu, cold light flickering in his eyes. Prime Minister Fu sighed in his heart.

He himself wanted to help the Eighteenth Prince build up his own strength, but as a eunuch of Royal Kitchen, even if he was the head of the eunuchs of Royal Kitchen, he only had a few people who would cook and deliver food in his hands. What could he do? Bitter is bitter in the hands of a man who has no confidant and no strength. No matter what, he was still a famous eunuch. Some things were inconvenient to mention. When Minister Fu thought of this, an idea flashed through his mind. Looking at the man standing by the side who did not say anything, he silently nodded his head.

As expected, the fire died out soon after. It was just that it was a little unbecoming that such a large piece of the grand Great Qin palace had been destroyed. The selected commander heaved a sigh of relief. Regardless of how he said it, his life was saved, but it would be hard to say if he could not keep his position.

He was a member of the Grand Tutor Pang and also part of the crown prince. Now that he was caught red-handed by the crown prince's biggest opponent, Prince Wu, although the fire was not set by him, the responsibility of protecting the palace was his. If the fire continued to burn out of nowhere, he would be guilty of dereliction of duty. Thinking of this, the Head Supervisor could not help but hope that the matter here was over so that he could report it to the crown prince so that he could think of a solution.

He stood in front of the Third Prince of Prince Wu and wiped off his perspiring face and said anxiously: "Please forgive me Prince Wu Your Highness, this official will gather everyone and definitely will find the thing that was set on fire and let you punish it!"

"Hm!" I will report your situation to the Royal Father. As for what to do with it? That will depend on how Royal Father thinks! " When Prince Wu said this, his face was gloomy, his eyes cold. When he saw this, his back turned cold and his heart tightened. But he still said respectfully, "Please speak a few words of praise in front of the emperor, this humble one will definitely remember this graciousness!"

"Hmm, is that so? Are you willing to leave you, the crown prince? Haha, you better pray for yourself! " Prince Wu suddenly laughed weirdly and left with brisk steps.

As for Princess Hua Feng, she didn't forget to fiercely glare at the overall selection as she left. He might have offended the Prince Wu, but that was something that everyone knew. After all, he was the crown prince's man! Aiyo, when he thought of this, he immediately shouted, "Li Yuan! "Immediately lead your men to search day and night. We won't let any trace of the culprit go. We'll give you 24 hours to find the culprit!"

Li Yuan replied with a gloomy expression. He turned around and led the group away.

Li Yuan was naturally a member of the Prince Wu and was the vice commander of the imperial guards. He thought to himself, who is the culprit behind this?

The overall selection and Li Yuan acted as if they did not see Eighteenth Prince and led their people away. However, before he left, he looked at the rich and powerful with a complicated expression. He knew that even if he had the crown prince to back him up, he would still be able to shirk his responsibility. However, if he could not extinguish the fire, his abilities would be overpowered, especially in front of the Prince Wu. Today, he was saved by such a wealthy Young Eunuch, so he couldn't say what it felt like in his heart. In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared into the distance.

Fugui turned around and looked at Eighteenth Prince and realized that his expression was still as troubled as ever, but he still stood steadily at the side. He did not say anything, and only had an unfathomable amount of thoughts in his eyes.

The only thing left of the courtyard that had been burned to ashes was the guards, who were surrounded by swirling black smoke. Their eyes were expressionless.

In an instant, the place which was originally bustling with noise and excitement was left with only Eighteenth Prince Fu and the riches that he had nowhere to go.

Fu Cheng coughed and said, "Your Highness, don't mind them. They will be punished sooner or later!" There were no longer many people around, only a harmless rich person who could not cause much of a commotion, and so he went over to Eighteenth Prince to talk.

Eighteenth Prince's immature face revealed melancholy and gloominess that was inconsistent with his age. "It doesn't matter. I don't even put them in my eyes. " He turned and looked at Fugui, and said with caution, "He is one of yours? "How can you be so blind and dare to say anything!" Actually, it was a pity that he lost the chance to weaken the Crown Prince and the Prince Wu, and this opportunity was ruined by wealth and honor. He understood clearly that regardless of whether the consumption was the crown prince or the Prince Wu, it would be beneficial to him.

Minister Fu bowed and said: "He is a Young Eunuch that I picked up on the way here! Oh right, I heard a huge noise then, and it just so happened that it was relatively close to my Royal Kitchen. I just went over to take a look, but what I didn't expect was that... Something went wrong there. There was no way of knowing whether all the people there were alive or dead. When I arrived, there was only this kid left. Right, what exactly happened there? " Fu Cheng suddenly remembered the sound of thunder he heard. After being provoked by the fire, he almost forgot about it, so he turned to Fugui.

Fugui calmly replied, "I don't know either. I was lying on the bed all that time and suddenly I heard a thunder and then I didn't know anything. That was the scene when I woke up. You've already seen it! " The rich were deliberately acting neither humble nor arrogant, not panicking at all. This was because he knew that he was already in a life or death situation, if he didn't display the slightest bit of his strength at this moment.

What awaited him was to take the blame, to separate his head from his body. Thus, he had to let others see his value, and then he could make use of himself. Then he would have a chance to live. If he had a chance, then he wouldn't know what would happen in the future.

Rich and rich people didn't quite believe themselves when they saw the surprise in their eyes. Suddenly, he thought about the words of the Prince Wu and the overall selection. Clams fight, and the fish will benefit from it! " The moment these words left his mouth, Fu Gui could clearly feel the shocked expression on the faces of the both of them. Eighteenth Prince's eyes were deep, it was unknown what he was thinking. However, Prime Minister Fu's reaction was a clear killing intent, a sharp killing intent.

Fugui didn't understand how that seemingly fat pig of a person could have such strong killing intent. However, he knew that his gamble was right, and what he should do next was...

A matured and calm expression that did not match his age appeared on his face as he calmly looked at the two.

"Haha …" Eighteenth Prince suddenly laughed towards the sky. Ignoring the guards who were looking from afar, he grabbed onto the wealthy host's hand and said, "I finally have someone I can talk to. Good! You're called Wealth, right? If there's anything that I can say in the future, I won't hesitate to do it! " Saying that, the Eighteenth Prince looked at Fu Gui with sincere eyes.
