Chapter 139: Dispute
(T/L NOTE: Everyone thank the buyers of {240+} chapters, that you got to read these bonus chapters!)
“Emperor Zhou, may I ask what you mean? If I am not mistaken, Emperor Zhou is provoking my Beiting?”
He said he wanted to punish, but Emperor Jingwen insisted on rewarding him. What else could this be but a provocation?
Hu Yanjue showed his anger at the right moment.
“How could that be? Your Highness must have misunderstood Father. The guard followed the rules and should be rewarded.”
“What is your Majesty thinking about?”
It would be too cheap for Emperor Jingwen to personally engage in a witticism, so without waiting for Emperor Jingwen to speak, the crown prince next to him looked embarrassed and spoke first: “I have heard that people in Beiting are generous and open-minded, but after meeting the prince today, I feel that the rumours are really not to be believed.”
It’s different from Beiting’s usual style to care about such a small matter.
Although Emperor Jingwen could not openly ignore the words of the late emperor, it was not difficult for him to show his true intentions.
