Chapter 236 Coincidentally
"What am I hiding? I'm hiding something?"
The Eighth Prince naturally denied it.
"Last night, the four of us were invited out by General Manager Zhao. Can't you see clearly whether I have something in my hand?"
"But you, big brother, I saw your chest was bulging last night. Why don't you tell me what it is?"
"Don't tell me that you have grown, and only one side has grown."
The Eighth Prince sneered and turned to question the First Prince.
The First Prince laughed and didn't take it to heart.
He didn't even mention the swelling in his chest, just pretending that he didn't hear the Eighth Prince's words, and analyzed on his own:
"Old Eighth, did you think we didn't notice it last night?"
"The robe you wore when you went back was obviously not the one you wore when you came!"
After that, the eldest prince glanced around the courtyard and asked knowingly:
"Old Eighth, where is your Saker Falcon?"
"It's so precious on weekdays, why did you hide it when we came?"
"That bird sings beautifully, why don't you take it out and let it sing for us to hear."
When the Eighth Prince heard this, his face darkened.
The Saker Falcon did sing a few times last night, but it was easy to shirk responsibility.
But he never expected that he would reveal a flaw in his clothes.
The Eighth Prince secretly glanced at the Fourth Prince who was drinking tea silently, knowing that he had probably seen through this matter.
The Eighth Prince didn't argue much, just spread his hands and shrugged, and said "I don't know" no matter what he asked.
"You guys are mistaken. My Xiaoyao Villa doesn't have such good conditions that I have to change clothes to take a bath."
"But what you asked makes me curious."
"Did the three brothers and sisters have unexpected gains when taking a bath last night?"
"Can this bath bring out treasures?"
The Eighth Prince's words were so curious and ignorant.
The eldest prince and the fourth prince looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
They knew that the eighth prince was thick-skinned, but they didn't expect that he was so thick now.
Last night in Yuqing Pool, only the Sixth Princess found a night-shining pearl.
When they came back last night, Concubine Zhang didn't sleep at all and waited for them to come back.
When the three of them saw that their mother was not asleep, they directly presented the night-shining pearl to her, which made Concubine Zhang happy for a long time.
The eldest prince did not take credit for himself, indicating that it was the Sixth Princess who found the night-shining pearl.
Although he somewhat failed his sister's kindness, the eldest prince could not take credit for his sister's achievements.
Unfortunately, Concubine Zhang did not care about what the eldest prince said later, but was just happy holding the night pearl.
Hearing that they had soaked in a strange pool and their strength had improved, she was even more happy.
Facts have proved that the Sixth Princess was right.
Concubine Zhang just praised the Sixth Princess casually, and then kept encouraging the eldest prince.
He said that he, as the eldest brother, had led his sister well, and finally raised his eyebrows.
This morning, Concubine Zhang was so happy that she almost smiled crookedly after knowing that Princess Ankang came out of Yuqing Pool empty-handed with a cat in her hand.
She felt that her son had finally won back a city.
After the eldest prince and his three siblings learned the news, they immediately found the Eighth Prince.
They only got one of the dozen treasure chests.
Princess Ankang came out empty-handed, so the remaining one must be the Eighth Prince.
At that time, the Eighth Prince was also the first to take action, and later he was the first to arrive at the Sun Moon Yin Yang Pond.
The Fourth Prince even remembered the details of last night and found that the Eighth Prince had changed his clothes.
Originally, if the Eighth Prince had a servant with him, changing clothes would not be a big deal.
Coincidentally, the Eighth Prince went alone last night, without even a servant.
When the Eighth Prince hurried over, everyone saw the Saker Falcon on his arm.
The Fourth Prince thought for a moment and immediately thought of a possibility.
The Eighth Prince found the things in the treasure chest, and then used the Saker Falcon to send the things back one step ahead.
Thinking about it this way, everything made sense.
"Old Eighth, let's do this."
At this time, the Fourth Prince suggested.
"We will show you all our gains from last night, and you can also show us what you gained from last night, how about it?"
The Eighth Prince narrowed his eyes, and his expression was relieved a little.
"Finally, there is some sincerity."
He thought to himself.
The Eighth Prince was naturally very concerned about this matter. In the morning, he also received the news that Princess Ankang came out of Yuqing Pool empty-handed.
The Eighth Prince had expected this.
In this matter, Princess Ankang was at a disadvantage.
Not only was she weak and sickly, and had difficulty in moving, she only had one little maid under her command, who could do nothing but serve her.
But they were different. Not only did they have cultivation, but they also had many attendants.
Princess Ankang has no chance of winning in a project that requires such hands-on work.
This is what the Eighth Prince has been thinking so far.
"Fourth brother's words are more human."
Hearing what the Eighth Prince said, the eldest prince's face darkened.
But the goal has not been achieved yet, and it is not the time to pursue it.
Then, the Eighth Prince continued to ask: "Did you take the things?"
The three siblings nodded in unison.
The Eighth Prince touched his chin and made a decision.
"Okay, it's a deal."
"Wait for me here for a while."
Seeing that the Eighth Prince finally stopped arguing with them, the three siblings breathed a sigh of relief.
They thought there was no hope, but they didn't expect the Eighth Prince to agree.
What they didn't know was that the Eighth Prince had the same idea as them.
He only got one treasure, so naturally he wanted to see what the others had.
Just like the eldest prince and his three siblings naturally thought that the Eighth Prince had taken the remaining treasure chests, the Eighth Prince also thought so about the three of them.
In the eyes of the Eighth Prince, they came to him today just to see what the treasure he took away was.
The Eighth Prince also wanted to raise the price with the treasure in his hand to see what they got.
Confusedly, both sides felt that they had successfully persuaded each other this time, and they all felt that they had made a lot of money.
After the Eighth Prince left, the Sixth Princess whispered to the two brothers:
"Humph, it turns out that the Eighth Prince can't help but want to show off."
The Fourth Prince said: "This time the Eighth Prince won such a big hand, anyone would be flattered, let alone with the Eighth Prince's character."
At this time, the eldest prince also sighed:
"The Eighth Prince has always acted unrestrainedly. When he encounters such a situation that requires improvisation, he is particularly like a fish in water."
"It's not unfair for us to lose this time."
The Fourth Prince and the Sixth Princess also nodded.
They all knew where they lost.
After hearing what Zhao Feng said, the Eighth Prince immediately chose to act.
However, the three siblings dared to confirm their guesses only after careful investigation.
But it was this gap that made their final results very different.
At least, this is what the three siblings concluded after last night.
Not long after, the Eighth Prince came back with a large bundle of things.
Seeing the bundle bulging and heavy, the three siblings confirmed their guesses.
"Sure enough, the Eighth Prince got there first."
Thinking of the treasure chests opened one by one last night, the three siblings' hearts were bleeding.
"I must be one step ahead in the future!"
The Eighth Prince slammed the bundle on the table with a "clang", then raised his head and said:
"Since you are the ones who came to me, please go first."
Such an attitude, in the eyes of the three siblings, is even more of a contempt of the winner for the loser.
But people have to bow their heads under the eaves.
The three siblings didn't say much, but the eldest prince and the fourth prince looked at the sixth princess and nodded to her.
The sixth princess got the consent of her two brothers and took out the huge night-shining pearl from her arms.
"Oh~"
The eighth prince couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the night-shining pearl.
Night-shining pearls are not rare in the palace, but it's the first time for the eighth prince to see such a big one.
"Okay, it's your turn, old eighth."
The sixth princess put away the night-shining pearl in her hand, and then the three siblings all looked at the eighth prince, waiting for him to untie the bundle with expectation.
But when he heard this, the eighth prince was stunned.
He secretly reached out and pressed the bundle on the table, then silently hid behind himself, and then asked in disbelief:
"You, just show me one?"
Hearing this, coupled with the action of the eighth prince, the three siblings immediately slapped the table and stood up.
"Old Eight, I advise you not to go too far!"
In the eyes of the three siblings, the Eighth Prince was humiliating them.
What do you mean by only showing him one piece?
They only had this one piece!
The Eighth Prince, who had opened all the remaining treasure chests, could not have been unaware of this.
That was why the three siblings were instantly irritated.
"We just agreed on something, it's too late for you to regret it now, Old Eight?"
The eldest prince threatened in a sinister tone.
Because of the verbal agreement, the three siblings were not afraid of making trouble.
Even if they beat the Eighth Prince up at his home, they still had a point.
"Okay, okay, you are shameless to be a brother or sister, right?"
"You still want to cheat me!"
The Eighth Prince naturally had his own reasons.
He thought he would take out a treasure and then look at all their treasures.
Unexpectedly, he was caught in a trap when he was not careful.
The Eighth Prince knew that he was definitely no match for these three people if they started fighting.
Even if it was on his own territory, his attendants were not qualified to stop the fight between the princes and princesses.
After thinking about it, he was sure to suffer a loss today.
The only difference was whether he would be beaten or not.
The Eighth Prince looked at the Fourth Prince viciously, subconsciously thinking that all this was the bad idea of his fourth brother.
All day long, you don’t think about good things, but how to trick me, right!
The Fourth Prince was originally glaring at the Eighth Prince, but when he saw that the Eighth Prince dared to glare at him, he couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
“Is the Eighth Prince so arrogant now?”
“How dare you be so tough to humiliate us?”
The Fourth Prince seemed to feel that something was wrong.
But at this time, the Eighth Prince also stood up and said stubbornly:
"A good man will not suffer a loss in front of him."
"Today, you are better."
After saying that, the Eighth Prince threw the bundle hidden behind him on the table.
The Eighth Prince was angry and threw it hard, and the bundle fell apart directly, revealing the golden bricks inside.
The three siblings looked down at the scattered golden bricks on the table and were silent for a moment.
The next moment, they all looked up, with anger in their eyes.
"You are so good, Old Eight!"
"Come and die!"
Xiaoyao Villa became more lively, and the crackling sound spread throughout the Caiyun Palace.
