The young eunuch nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The emperor's face turned the color of liver as he held his urine, and his body began to tremble violently. "My palace has always been heavily guarded. Who on earth stole the things in my palace?!"
The young eunuch trembled and said, "You servants don't know, the soldiers who were guarding last night all fainted, and when they woke up, the room was empty."
"How can this be possible! Rubbish! All rubbish!" The emperor covered his chest with his hands, almost choking with anger.
The young eunuch quickly stood up and stepped forward to help him smooth his back, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry."
The emperor's brows were wrinkled into knots, and he pressed his aching chest and said angrily: "These bandits are so brave! They are humiliating me! Humiliating me!"
As he spoke, he started coughing violently.
The young eunuch standing by didn't dare to persuade him anymore.
"Someone come! Check for me! You must find those criminals for me! I will tear them into pieces!" The emperor became angrier and angrier, and he slammed the table with a trembling body.
It would have been fine if he hadn't clapped his hands, but once he did, it was disastrous. The emperor's bladder couldn't hold it anymore, and a stream of urine gushed out along with the sound of the clapping.
The guards outside the door looked at him one by one.
The whole hall suddenly became quiet.
The fearless eunuch sniffed and said, "Your Majesty, do you smell a strange odor?"
The petrified emperor suddenly flew into a rage and kicked the eunuch in the face, "Go and investigate! Find the criminal within three days! Quick!"
As soon as he said this, the guards in the palace no longer dared to stare at him. They quickly responded loudly and rushed out.
Before the emperor had time to change his clothes, he heard the news from Prime Minister Wan, "What? Everyone in the Fu Mansion ran away?!"
The guard who delivered the message bowed his head and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, not only did everyone run away, the entire Fu Mansion is empty, even..."
The emperor's face turned pale and he shouted, "Just what?!"
The guard knelt down and said, "Not even a bed was left!"
The emperor was already shaking with anger, and after hearing this, he stood up straight without caring about his wet pants, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Hurry up and chase them!"
The guards were startled and quickly responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
"He ran away! He actually ran away from me! How brave!" The emperor muttered to himself with trembling lips, then fell directly onto the dragon throne.
This is probably what they mean when they say trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice.
Prime Minister Wan, the Emperor, Minister Chu and others originally planned to conspire to confiscate the Fu family's wealth, but in the end, not only did they not get a single copper plate from the Fu family, but their own backyard was also robbed.
For a while, the whole capital was in chaos.
The streets were full of soldiers, searching for bandits everywhere. In the end, only a thousand people were left when they went to hunt down the Fu family.
They divided their troops into three groups and chased after the Fu family.
The Fu family rode at full speed all the way to Zhanyang County, which was dozens of kilometers away.
Lord Fu originally wanted to go to Cangshan County, which was a little further north, but at the suggestion of Chu Chenyin and Fu Yanting, he went to Zhanyang County.
Zhanyang County has always been known as a land of fish and rice and is one of the richest places in Dayong State.
Ten days later, fire will fall from the sky over the capital, and more than ten counties surrounding the capital will be affected by the fire. When the time comes, the sky will be full of fire, and people will flee in all directions.
Zhanyang County is at least two hundred kilometers away from where the flint fell to the ground. Not only can they avoid the attack of the sky fire here, but they can also store more food here.
