Chapter 290 Part2 (2/2)

And flipping it around, as the supreht, the pope mustn't casually perform a baptism!

This is the iron law!!

“Is his Majesty the Pope insane?!!!” Du Wei suddenly ju, is he stupid?”

This is provocation! A blatant provocation!

Du Wei's face was pale too as he stared at Zack: ”You are also stupid! How can you take on so like that!”

Zack’s face hite too as he shouted, “Oh heavens, my Duke! You think I'ht of the situation? You think I want to accept soe was standing in front ofthe Pope's personal decree at my face! You think I can deny it? I'm not you, I' your business In front of a character at the level of the Pope, how do you expect me to refuse? I have to say yes even if every fiber of my body screams no!!”

Thinking it over, Du Wei had to admit… In front of the Pope's personal decree, he himself wouldn't be able to refuse, let alone this monkey

On the whole continent, who can openly say no in front of the Pope?

“Besides” Zack ht after I accepted that thing, I immediately sent someone out of the capital to find you on the road At that time, you should've been halfway to the capital, did you not meet them?”

Du Wei’s heart grew gloo the time and day?

Ho, wasn't that exactly the time when he saved Maximos from those Xieni assassins on the river?

“I did not ers you sent out” He hastened to ask: ”Then what about Prince Son? What does the Regent have to say about this news?”

Zack’s face eird before he ht, I wanted to seek you out in the er of the court and handed a copy of the Regent's order, and then…”

“And what?”

”Then that person took the listed item ahich is the Pope's decree”

Hearing his words, Du Wei felt like his face had been punched Fu with fury, he screamed: ”Took it away?!”

Swelling with anger, Du Wei slammed the table with his palm and snapped at theso iht! Why now!!!”

“I’d like to, I really wanted to” Zack shook his head: “The ht Without so much as a word, the two men stormed into e to transe to soet about leaving to inforoodness sake!”

Du Wei nodded He did find it odd that Zack did not receive hiate yesterday As his lord, it's only natural the steould be there, yet even thisthe monkey had to call for an audience at the shop instead of co to his residence

“It wasn't until this ers allow ent is doing either, I can only do as they say and call for you Even just now those people from the court were still here, butto bet they placed some lookouts on the street”

Pausing, Zack s: ”I sent ency of the matter Aside from the road, I also had thes now, I can see they've been intercepted by either the Temple or the royal family”

Du Wei slowly calms himself down

It seems this was done intentionally by Prince Son

Deliberately blocking the news along the way and not letting himself learn of these matters until he co?

As for Earl Biliaibuer and the others, those guys also didn't poke a word either last night, obviously ordered by the Regent too!

But why all this, what's the point?

Seeing Du Wei plunging into a long muse, Zack bitterly smiled and said, ”Milord, now is not the tient now is the auction at noon today… But we don't have the decree that everyone's waiting for, Prince Son took it away last night! What are we supposed to do when our hands are e with you?”

Du Wei furrowed his brow… Prince deliberately ent did have that thought, then why shower hiift hi clan? There's no reason to set this up today to frame him

Take away the Pope's personal decree? It's a good way to ruin the auction that's for sure, but there's no reason to embarrass him like this

Exhaling deeply, Du Wei finally clears his mind: “I understand now…”

Rubbing the hness is obvious… Deliberately sending so is to not allow anyone else to get their hands on the item! His point is very clear: use any et their hands on the Pope's promise!”

“Then what should we do at the auction?”

“This is the part where we need to find our own solution” Du Wei sighed: ”Now that we're on topic, the only way out of this is to buy it ourselves At the auction, noprice is, we must win!”

da at his own auction house, what kind of irony was this?

Zack was slightly stunned, but he was also a wiseup, he exclaient means! Just that, why didn’t he discuss the matter with you prior to this event? Instead, he sends someone to snatch it away and not let me inform you?”

”This is to not give runted with displeasure

From the looks of it, this Prince Son see Du Wei wouldn't want to touch this troublesoent forcefully du him know until the last moment!

Prince Son will never admit to the fact that he took the decree away If Du Wei doesn't have the item at hand after so bla the Pope's decree” In order to not bear this accusation, Du Wei can only bid for the item hi the bird that stands out!

Based on Du Wei's style thus far, it's a certainty that he would absolutely be unwilling to stand at the cusp of this! So, the Regent simply made the decision for hi him to do so without his consent!

Du Wei sighed inside: And here last night he was still worrying about the stick after the carrot

Seems the stick is quite the heavy handed one!
