Translator: asa.s.sin
When Emperor Huizong arrives at Prince Beiding's Manor, Qin Zhen, also known as Prince Beiding is enjoying a traditional opera .

The world knows well that Prince Beiding loves traditional operas .

He doesn't love beauties, nor does he love money or treasures . He simply enjoys traditional operas and even keeps his own theatrical troupe .

Once there were people who didn't believe he had such a hobby, saying that Prince Beiding kept those famous singers to perform traditional operas on the surface but who knew what ugly truth was beneath that .

Not until a famous singer playing female roles who had stayed in Prince Beiding's Manor for ten years and ended her career to go back to her hometown with a rich reward from Prince Beiding announced that she was a virgin did those people believe that someone as strange as Prince Beiding did exist in this world .

Emperor Huizong, on the other hand, thinks that was perfectly normal .

He met Qin Zhen when he was still in his youth . He knows perfectly well what kind of person Qin Zhen is .

Advertis.e.m.e.ntQin Zhen is like an unsheathed sword, sharp, stubborn, unstoppable and doesn't know regret, no matter towards his emperor or his loved ones .

He has given all his love to Princess Beiding, and after her death, Prince Beiding's Manor hasn't seen another hostess .

He has given his loyalty to Great Yan and Emperor Huizong, so he would never have a second thought or serve another emperor .

Therefore, Emperor Huizong believes in him and has no doubt at all .

When Emperor Huizong reaches the waterside pavilion in the manor, Prince Beiding is lying on a cane chair with his eyes closed, a performer playing a martial role singing with an energetic voice in front of him .

Emperor Huizong doesn't like that kind of stuff so he waves his hand to send them away .

Qin Zhen opens his eyes lazily . Seeing Emperor Huizong, Qin Zhen stands up from the cane chair and cups his hands to greet the emperor in a perfunctory manner: “Your Majesty, you are in quite a good mood to see such an unoccupied person who is in detention like me . ”

Emperor Huizong hasn't even swallowed his tea and his hands shake when he hears that from Prince Beiding .

He puts the cup back on the table and looks at Qin Zhen angrily: “Detention? I asked you to examine yourself . Is this how you do it?”

The anger of an emperor would have sent normal people down on their knees in no time .

But not Prince Beiding .

The emperor who stands before him was once beaten to tears by him . How would he fear his anger?

Qin Zhen doesn't even answer Emperor Huizong's question and says pensively: “Your Majesty, why are you here at this time? Let me guess . Have you got any leads?”

Emperor Huizong remains silent .

Qin Zhen continues his guesses: “Do they have anything to do with the witchcraft case and Prince Yan? But you haven't found the man who is behind it yet, have you?”

Emperor Huizong sighs: “If you used to be as reliable as you are now, you would have saved me much trouble . ”

Qin Zhen sneers: “I'm just a military man . I'm only concerned about fights and battles . If Your Majesty needs me for this, your cabinet had better go back home and work the land . ”

Emperor Huizong: “ . . . ”

He says coldly: “Qin Zhen, are you really not afraid that I would take your head off your body someday when I'm angry?”

Qin Zhen isn't terrified at all and has the leisure to pour himself a cup of tea .

He looks at Emperor Huizong with a laugh: “I'm not, to be honest . If you have been an emperor who makes no distinction between right and wrong, I won't become who I am today . ”

Eunuch An stands by them in silence and secretly gives Prince Beiding a thumbs-up .

He thinks that Prince Beiding is quite natural and quick with his praise for His Majesty .

It looks like he himself is not as good a flatterer as Prince Beiding is .

As expected, Emperor Huizong's expression eases . He glares at Prince Beiding but doesn't say anything .

On the opposite, Qin Zhen becomes more serious: “Your Majesty, why are you here all of a sudden?”

As far as the Emperor Huizong he knows of, it's not possible that he has come all the way here just to see him .

Emperor Huizong gives him an approving glance . He has been so tolerant towards Prince Beiding partly because Prince Beiding has always been clear-headed .

He knows the right time to say and to do things .

Though Qin Zhen has often contradicted Emperor Huizong over the years but thinking carefully, he has never gone beyond the emperor's bottom line .
