C171

The First Prince did not know what the people below him were thinking, but the anger in his heart was like a volcano erupting crazily.

Originally, this matter of him being the next successor was settled, but how could there be such accurate information regarding the succession of the throne?

He was scared and flustered within his heart. He had always been uneasy about this matter, and now, the rumors within the city had turned completely chaotic.

The imperial power was bestowed upon him by the heavens! This was a bestowal from the heavens. No matter how powerful the First Prince was, as long as the Emperor believed in this, his title as the emperor would be ruined.

Thinking of those princes and princesses whom he had defeated, his heart began to tremble. Scenes of terror began to form in his mind.

Those princes and their descendants who had been persecuted and killed by him, his friends would never let him off. He would die a miserable death.

Such thoughts continued to swirl through his mind. How could he not panic? How could he not panic?

And his most urgent reaction was to throw a tantrum, smash things, roar irritably, and roar crazily. In short, he looked like a lunatic.

After smashing the items and roaring, First Prince suddenly realized that his heart was empty. He looked at the empty house and saw the shivering servants and advisers.

For a time, he felt a sense of despair and a sense of crisis that he had never felt before.

Someone! Go, take all those who dare to talk about the imperial government to prison. Fast!

First Prince roared. His eyes were red, causing the guards to tremble in fear, but as a subordinate, they had to obey.

The guards were not idiots either. He knew very well the terrifying consequences of First Prince's order.

It would be enough if he did not cause a ruckus, as First Prince's reputation would be ruined by then. In that case, the guards would not be willing to see it happen.

After all, he was following the First Prince. If his reputation was bad, then his subordinates would become lackeys, and he wouldn't have any reputation to speak of.

However, as his subordinate, he had no choice but to obey. In that moment, the guards were conflicted and gnashed their teeth, hoping that someone among the advisers who talked casually everyday would stop First Prince.

In fact, the advisers were panicking, they were now First Prince's advisers, if First Prince made a mistake, of course they would be implicated, this was a burden they did not want.

The reason they followed First Prince was to enjoy the limelight, not to follow him and get scolded. First Prince's order was too deceitful.

The advisors couldn't wait any longer. Some of them couldn't sit still as they watched the guards leave in large strides.

"Woosh ~ ~ ~"

An elderly man among the advisers suddenly stood up, waving his tattered sleeves and shouting at First Prince: "First Prince, do not, do not ah …"

This Ding man was born a poor scholar. He normally dressed in rags, but of course, these were all for outsiders to see.

It was obvious that the First Prince did not want to give his aides any money, but this Old Master Ding was indeed diligent and thrifty!

He only wore it like that to show that it was not easy in First Prince, in fact, it was just for his own reputation, the gold in his house was already piled into a small hill.

At this moment, he couldn't wait any longer. After he stood up, he regretted his decision. However, when he saw that his bodyguard was about to leave, he decided to take the lead. After all, the most important matter was to solve it.

After he spoke, it was as if a door had been opened, and the advisors were all mobilized.

Your Highness, you can't do that. Doing so would cause panic, and it would even directly affect the Emperor's opinion. You can't do that!

You have to consider more in this hall. Those who obtain the hearts of the people will rule the world, and doing so will directly affect your future.

I can't, I definitely can't …

Most of these advisers relied on their mouths to achieve their goals, and when they wanted to achieve something, they would speak out.

It was just like this now, with endless chirping sounds. The First Prince's fretful heart had become even more irritable, and he felt as if countless ducks were squawking incessantly.

His eyes turned even redder, and his teeth began grinding. Listening to the sounds, one could imagine his teeth grinding against each other until nothing was left.

The guard stood to one side, watching the actions of these people, wanting to see if they could stop First Prince.

However, when he saw First Prince's completely red face, he couldn't be sure anymore. His expression was especially unsightly, and his heart was filled with unease.

First Prince's expression turned even angrier. Heavens, could it be that I am really going to become a bodyguard that captures innocent people? Don't ah...

The guard really didn't want to be a bad person. He felt that he was a good person, but as a subordinate of the First Prince, he didn't have self-respect.

He could only do what the First Prince told him to do as he sobbed in his heart. His expression was cold and the killing intent in his eyes became denser and denser.

It looked like an unsheathed sword that could start slaughtering at any moment.

The bodyguards did not want to catch the innocent, waiting for the counselors to persuade them otherwise, in the end he heard First Prince's furious roar.

Enough, you bunch of bastards, whose people are you? Who gave you all the confidence to change my outcome? Scram, all of you f * ck off, f * ck off …

A gloomy and cold aura pervaded the air. At this moment, everyone could feel the killing intent coming from First Prince.

Some of the more quick-witted guy acted quickly. When they heard that First Prince was chasing them away, they slipped away.

One of them slipped away, while the other followed closely behind. The guard's heart skipped a beat, and he took a wrong step, disappearing with a swoosh.

As for First Prince's order, the guard said that I didn't hear it, so First Prince told me to scram.

After thinking about this, the guard who had walked far away suddenly straightened his back and straightened his face. He confidently strode forward.

With him like this, the subordinates that wanted to ask something immediately shut their mouths, not daring to speak anymore.

They had heard the words of the First Prince, but when they saw that the leader did not take any action, they did not say anything, and just followed their superior's footsteps.

The imperial guards had ordered a ban, and none of them spoke carelessly. However, the other group of people were different.

Those who had a good relationship with the advisors of the First Prince, all started their own small meetings.

The advisers were also competing for power, and there were also competition. Just like the small imperial government, they were also in different factions, and the First Prince was the same.
