Chapter 38 The Prince's Heart is Broken

After driving away the annoying guy and saying hello to the beautiful girl from the prime minister's family, Fang Hao yawned and felt completely exhausted. He simply closed his eyes and planned to take a nap.

But to be honest, although I was surprised that Su Muliu had to say hello to me, she is a real lady from a noble family. Look at Jin Beibei.

Fang Hao glanced at Jin Beibei's back with disdain, closed his eyes and began to take a nap.

Su Muliu suppressed her inner shame and after greeting Fang Hao, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

This was the first time in her life that she felt such excitement for a man of the same age.

Fortunately, after talking with Jin Beibei and Chu Xin, this throbbing feeling was suppressed.

On the other side, Jin Wuji returned to Mingde Hall in a daze.

After driving everyone out, Jin Wuji sat in front of the bed, motionless, like a stone statue.

He thought hard all night, and when dawn broke, Jin Wuji looked up blankly.

Looking at the sun just rising outside the window, Jin Wuji narrowed his confused eyes, as if he had not yet transitioned from darkness to light.

But even though his eyes were stung by the morning light and his tear glands began to secrete, Jin Wuji still stubbornly refused to look away.

That night, the eight words that Fang Hao said kept echoing in Jin Wuji's mind, causing him to begin to doubt himself.

Is it true that the dream I have been pursuing all these years is really wrong?

"Hahaha~ The greatest heroes serve their country and their people!"

Jin Wuji laughed bitterly. If he really wanted to serve the country and the people, he might as well follow the path arranged by his father and be a good emperor who worked hard to govern the country.

If there is such a thing as Tao Heart, then Jin Wuji's Tao Heart would have been destroyed into eight pieces by Fang Hao long ago.

"Kara, Kara"

Jin Wuji got out of bed with a numb expression, and his body, which had not moved all night, made a sound of bones rubbing against each other.

The tightly closed door was opened and the eunuch guarding the door immediately stepped forward.

"Your Highness, are you awake?"

"Heh, Gao Yang, am I stupid in your eyes?"

Jin Wuji laughed miserably. He refused to accept the throne that so many people desired. In everyone's eyes, he must be the biggest fool in the world!

Gao Yang was almost frightened by these words, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, "I dare not!"

Jin Wuji let out a long sigh, and seemed to have made some kind of decision in his heart. He left without paying any attention to Gao Yang who was kneeling on the ground.

Gao Yang dared to get up from the ground only after Jin Wuji's footsteps faded away.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Gao Yang looked around with an eagle-like gaze, "Could it be that some damned thing spread gossip and reached His Highness' ears?"

Thinking of the distraught look of His Highness just now and that faint sigh, Gao Yang suddenly felt creepy.

Although His Highness is not doing his job properly, I am still loyal to him!

Gao Yang was furious and thought that he would beat a few servants to death today to teach them what the rules are!

He was sure that the one who made His Highness look like this must be some blind servant! Your Highness is kind-hearted, but I will not show mercy!

......

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"

In Dayang Palace, as the eunuch announced in a sharp voice, Jin Tianci laughed and said to his subjects, "It is a rare thing that the prince would come to my place today."

The Left Prime Minister Su Quan and the Right Prime Minister Wei Xian, who had known the prince's character, looked at each other and wisely said nothing, as they didn't know for sure whether the emperor would be furious again later.

As Jin Wuji entered the hall, the smile on Jin Tianci's face quickly disappeared and turned ashen.

Su Quan and Wei Xian also exclaimed in surprise. It was because the prince looked so haggard, it was really shocking.

Jin Tianci narrowed his eyes, "Wuji, what's wrong with you?"

Jin Wuji bowed from a distance with impeccable etiquette, "Your Majesty, your son greets you!"

Jin Tianci's eyes widened. Didn't this kid always disregard the palace rules? What on earth happened?

Seeing Jin Wuji kneeling on the ground, Jin Tianci looked dazed. It seemed as if time had gone back to more than ten years ago, when a young child was pretending to be an adult and performing great rituals.

Yes, now I can still remember the cute appearance of Qingque (Jin Wuji’s nickname) when he was young.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Su Quan called out twice in a low voice.

Jin Tianci came back to his senses and saw Jin Wuji still kneeling on the ground. He couldn't help but cough and said, "Prince, please get up!"

Jin Tianci, lost in his memories, was like a kind father, but when he came to his senses, he turned into the supreme ruler who dominated all people.

"Wuji, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like this?"

Jin Tianci felt a little distressed. Although this kid always made him mad, he was his most beloved son after all!

Jin Wuji looked disappointed, "Father, you know that I don't want to be a crown prince. I don't want to be locked up in this cage-like palace. I want to be a knight-errant and roam the world."

Cage?

Jin Tianci's face darkened, but he did not interrupt. Since he was a child, he had always been so naughty that his scalp tingled, and he had never seen him look so dispirited.

"But yesterday someone asked me, what is a knight?"

"He said that the greatest heroes serve their country and their people!"

The Great Jin Emperor's eyes lit up, and he thought this short sentence was really wonderful!

As the saying goes, knights break the law with force. In recent years, there have always been some knights who have killed corrupt officials or robbed wealthy people under various names, causing Jin Tianci a lot of headaches. Otherwise, there would be no restriction on high-level cultivation resources.

After all, the damage that a high-level practitioner can cause is enormous!

This short sentence is very well said: Only those who serve their country and their people are heroes!

Wei Xian felt itchy inside, but he couldn't help it in the end, "Your Highness, who said that?"

He was very curious about what kind of person could say such grand words!

Jin Wuji glanced at him and said, "It was Fang Hao, the leader of Fengyun Society, who said that."

Wei Xian's mouth twitched. Isn't this what His Majesty just said?

Jin Tianci was stunned for a moment, then he burst into laughter, "What a coincidence, Su Qing, Wei Qing and I were just talking about him!"

"Wuji, you also know the perfume that Fang Hao sells, right?"

"Of course I know. I'm afraid everyone in Shengdu knows about it now, right?"

Jin Wuji didn't understand why his father suddenly said this.

"Do you know the profit of that perfume? It sold for more than 70,000 taels of silver in just three days."

At this point, Jin Tianci couldn't help but be a little surprised. He was originally worried about how to deal with this year's refugees, but yesterday Bao Longxing sent him a memorial saying that a solution had been found for the refugees.

Jin Tianci was of course surprised, so he immediately summoned Bao Longxing to meet him. The king and his minister talked for the whole morning yesterday, and Bao Longxing finally told him the whole story.

Thinking of Fang Hao's identity, Jin Tianci couldn't help but laugh secretly. Bao Qing was still deceived by that kid. That kid had such a powerful force behind him, why did he need the protection of the Jinwu Guards? He was just finding a name to give me a gift.

"Why didn't Father say anything?"

Seeing Jin Tianci paused there, not knowing what he was thinking about, Jin Wuji hurriedly asked.

The wise and mighty Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty glanced at his foolish son and spoke slowly.

"Fang Hao donated 30% of the 70,000 taels of silver, and promised that no matter how much money his shop makes in the future, he will give 30% to the court, as long as it is used for charity!"
