Chapter 603
The officials were confused . [What’s happening? It is still early in the morning . Is there any accident? Maybe… It was said the king is ill, and he may not have lots days to live . Did he just…]
The Crown Prince had the same thought . He looked confused, but was quite happy in mind . If his father truly died, he would become the new king . He surely was happy . [Gods are blessing me . Once I sit on the throne, I am king!]
He was still having his sweet dream, because he didn’t know what happened the previous night . The masters captured those officials secretly and rapidly!
Not even a chicken or a dog escaped .
Masters around the king were all in top levels of Sky Origin Stage . They were totally powerful in ordinary people’s eyes . One night was long enough for them to do so many things!
"What’s going on?"
"I don’t know . Anything big happening?"
"I didn’t hear anything about this . Why?"
Somebody frowned and asked Crown Prince, "Your highness, do you know what is happening?"
Crown Prince’s face turned pale . He didn’t seem so vigorous anymore . He wasn’t a fool after all . After thinking deeper for a few minutes, he realized there was something wrong about it . There were a few officials absent in the court . The absent officials were exactly those who were working for him . If one or two of them were missing, he might still try to believe that they were sick or something else . However, all the officials who worked for him were missing . Apparently, they were all in trouble!
They all got in trouble at the same time… That meant…
Crown Prince’s heart started to beat heavily . His face was turning pale and gloomy . He shook his head and blankly spoke, "I don’t know!"
He was turning more and more depressed though .
His heart felt like falling deeper and deeper down to the abyss .
It was like a nightmare to him . The most horrible nightmare was happening to him . He tried to wake up but he just couldn’t .
A sweet dream turned into a nightmare . Heavens and hell . What a huge difference!
"The king announces morning court!"
The eunuch’s familiar voice sounded . Crown Prince’s two legs were trembling . He knew he should get in, but he actually just couldn’t move his feet .
His feet were so heavy like they were rooted in the ground .
He tried so hard but couldn’t lift it .
An official behind him noticed it, so he got over to hold the Crown Prince . As he touched Crown Prince, he found his hands were wet and cold . Crown Prince’s sweat drenched his clothes .
[What is wrong? Is Crown Prince sick?]
"Your highness? You highness?" He was scared, so he called out to Crown Prince .
"I am fine . " Crown Prince was back to himself . He tried to smile and slowly walk into the main hall .
"Your highness, if you don’t feel well, why not just ask for leave and take some rest back home . Don't hide your sickness for fear of treatment . " The official was concerned .
Crown Prince’s face was pale . He didn’t seem sober at all . He didn’t even hear what people said to him .
In the main hall .
The king’s sharp eyes stared at the Crown Prince who was being held by an official . His eyes were sharp and cold, but in his heart, there were complex feelings .
