The heavy rains were still beating down on the buildings in the Royal Palace, and the hearts of the people in itIt was silent in Guangxin Palace, or maybe it was silentThe vicious words of the brother and sister were hidden by the sound of rain and thunderNot a peep traveled outside the Palace

Even so, there was still not a single person outside Guangxin PalaceEven old Eunuch Hong was not thereEveryone kept their distanceAs long as they did so, they would be keeping their distance from death

Eunuch Yao was still outside Eastern Palace, but his thoughts had long turned to Guangxin PalaceHis hands and feet were cold, and his heart was darkHe didn't knoas happening in that PalaceAlthough he knew he shouldn't think of that scenario, he still couldn't help but do so

He wiped the rainwater from his hand and carefully watched for iven this Palace to hie, he couldn't let the empress and Crown Prince inside cause any ruckus

Coxin Palace, the situation with the Eastern Palace seeh Eunuch Yao was nervous, he wasn't afraidAll the servants in the Eastern Palace had been beheadedThere was only the mother and son left alone in thereEunuch Yao believed that, no matter what, they wouldn't be able to cause a ruckus

Suddenly, his eyes that had been soaked by the rainwater suddenly becaan to burn

What a powerful fire!

The powerful fire rose from the beautiful Eastern Palace and dissolved into countless fire spiritsIt rose toward the rain scattering skyThe incredible heat accompanied the fire as it quickly spread in all directions

Eunuch Yao's eyes suddenly constricted, but the red in his eyes did not decrease at allThe Eastern Palace was on fireAt this point, other than thethe fire themselves, no one else could do itBut, did the mother and son want to burn the down heavily, so how did this fire start? Why could the sky full of rain not be able to put out this fire? Eunuch Yao knew that this was not the ate how the fire startedHe had to immediately make a decision whether to put out the fire or otherwise

Should he let the empress and Crown Prince burn themselves to death in the fire? Eunuch Yao didn't spend too ry the Emperor was, if the e the wrath of the Emperor, then that wrath would fall on his own head

A moh the fire as he yelled in a sharp but raspy voice, ”Water!”

…

…

There were countless reservoirs of water in copper vats in the Royal Palace, and countless eunuchs and serving girlsWhen the fire started in the Eastern Palace, there were already people reacting and running toward it, working hard to put out the fireEunuch Yao tensely and carefully did not participateInstead, he stood in the outer circle with a hidden face and watched the busy crowdHe was very careful to not allow anyone to take this opportunity toPalace

This fire was soeIt didn't seem like that the Palace itself had burnedRather, sohly flammable materials and oilsThus, the fire was very powerful and couldn't be extinguished by the rainHowever, after these resources were burned through, the fire had no further strength and was extinguished quickly

A loyal eunuch broke down the burned and blackened Palace door wanting to charge inside to save the master and h the Palace door, he found darkness in front of his eyesSomehow, he was struck by a wooden stick on the head and fainted away

Eunuch Yao coldly entered firstBehind hiain surrounded the Eastern Palace and kept the fire fighters, ere looking at each other, outside of the Palace

The Eastern Palace had already been burned into a desolate placeOn the rain splattered stone tiles in front of the Palace, the e held by the Crown Prince in his ared by the fire on her body, she looked wretched after having been soaked by the rain

Eunuch Yao bowed slightly”The fire has been put out”

Thewas simpleSince the fire had been put out, the two of thenities and stay

The Crown Prince, with a row of blisters frolimmer of hatred flashed across his faceHe spoke each word clearly, ”Unless you kill ht now, otherwise, the entire Royal Palace will know the news of the Eastern Palace catching on fireHow long do you think you can hide it?”

Then, the Crown Prince raised his head and calmly said, ”I am fineIt is only that mother has fainted from the smoke” His voice easily carried to outside the Palace and was heard by those who ca as the empress and Crown Prince were fine, then they would not suffer

As these words landed in the ears of the eunuchs and guards surrounding the Eastern Palace, they carried a different kind of

Eunuch Yao's body frozeHe slowly lifted his head to look at this usually very normal Crown Prince and furrowed his browsOnly now did he realize that this Crown Prince was, after all, the Emperor's true sonWhen crisis came, this kind of decisiveness and self-ireat effect

The Emperor needed to deal with his family matters but also needed to maintain his face, so he had chosen the darkest hour before dawnThe heavens had joined in and poured down thunder and rain to add to the atmosphereIn the Royal Palace, over a hundred servants had already died to stop the people's incessant talking

After the Eastern Palace caught fire, everyone knew that the Crown Prince and eo by without a soundThe so-called faradually become a national matter

Eunuch Yao looked at the calm Crown Prince and felt his heart jumpHe found that when the usually rather stupid Crown Prince was faced with a crisis, regardless of whether it was his eyes or expression, he was very like the Emperor
