Quick Transmigration: Male Lead, You're Overpowered? Chapter 65: A Dejected Prince With A Cold Outside And Tender Inside (21)

Prince Beiding is a man who doesn't care about his personal image at all.

Thus he doesn't feel that anything he does is beneath his dignity as Prince Beiding at this day and age.

However, his son-in-law, Zhao Yin holds an absolutely opposite view on this one.

That partly explains why Prince Beiding can't tolerate Zhao Yin.

Does Zhao Yin ever feel tired for holding himself aloft all the time?

Qin Zhen goes into the palace. Emperor Huizong looks at his manner of dressing with cold eyes and feels a throbbing headache.

"What happened this time, Prince Beiding?"

Qin Zhen gets down on his knees with proficiency: "Your Majesty, I did something wrong."

It finally comes!

This familiar opening. This familiar feeling!

Prince Beiding says: "I'm guilty for two offences. First, I disobeyed Your Majesty's order and went to Palace of Happiness to see my unfortunate daughter, Zhao Zhao. Then I've beaten up an eunuch who needed a good spanking in front of the crowd which offended Your Majesty's authority."

Emperor Huizong says coldly: "Judging from your tone, I think you are not quite convinced of what you did was wrong."

Qin Zhen says with perfect a.s.surance: "No, I'm not."

Emperor Huizong: "…"

"Your Majesty, do you remember your promise to me? You said that Prince Yan was a good man and Zhao Zhao wouldn't spend a bad day after she was married to him. You also said that you would protect her. Now that I have only been to Yangzhou for a few days, do you protect my Zhao Zhao by letting her live in the cold palace?"

Emperor Huizong: "…"

Huizong coughs a little: "Princess Yan followed her husband and moved to the cold palace out of her own will."

Qin Zhen's anger grows when he hears that from the emperor: "Right, Zhao Zhao has moved to the cold palace voluntarily! My daughter has deep love for His Highness and values righteousness more than anything else and she's willing to suffer with your son. But your eunuch, what have they done to my Zhao Zhao?"

"Just now when I was in the Palace of Happiness, she was having breakfast together with Prince Yan. Your Majesty, do you know what they were eating? Noodles with water! There was not even a drop of grease in it!"

"Zhao Zhao also told me that the noodles were good enough compared with what they had yesterday. Yesterday's bun was so hard that they couldn't even bite."

Emperor Huizong was shocked.

While Qin Zhen is talking about Qin Zhao, it is his son whom he is thinking about.

Ah You. Are you having such a bad time in the cold palace?

Ah You is Zhao Yin's nickname. Back when Zhao Yin was a baby, he was so tiny and weak. Emperor Huizong was afraid that Zhao Yin wouldn't live long so he gave him that nickname, hoping that the heaven and his ancestors would bless and protect his son.

He is indeed angry and bitterly disappointed. However, when he hears about that news from Qin Zhen he feels disturbed.

It is after all his son who he has loved with all his heart for over twenty years.

Prince Beiding looks at the emperor's reaction with cold eyes and decides to upset him one step further: "Your Majesty, if you want to torture your son, it's your business. But I only have one daughter Zhao Zhao and I couldn't bear to leave her in that terrible place!"

Emperor Huizong returns to himself and looks angrily at Prince Beiding: "Are you saying that you are not here to admit your error?"

Qin Zhen kneels on the ground with his back upright: "I am. I am wrong that I acted on my impulse and didn't report to Your Majesty in advance and offended Your Majesty's authority. As to anything else…"

"I was right about everything else!"

Bang! Emperor Huizong threw the memorial on Prince Beiding's head.

"You! You get back to your manor. I want half of your salary deducted. Examine yourself! You can only get out of your manor when you know what you did wrong!"

Qin Zhen looks quite embarra.s.sed: "Then I want to see Zhao Zhao."

"Get out!"

All the ministers and generals have seen Prince Beiding went into the palace fiercely. Those onlookers are waiting for Prince Beiding to take a fall and then they could hit him when he is down.

Who could have thought that in less than half an hour, Prince Beiding gets out of the palace glowing with happiness as if nothing has happened.
