Chapter 84: A Dejected Prince with a Cold Outside and Tender Inside (40)


Translator: asa.s.sin
Emperor Huizong looks at him and asks abruptly: “Why do you go to Princess Yan all of a sudden?”

Princess Yan?

Princess Yan!

Zhao Yi is stunned .

But he returns to himself immediately . That is Emperor Huizong"s answer to him .

The emperor started to investigate him because he has provoked Princess Yan!

A woman!

Has he destroyed all of his plans just because of a woman?

Zhao Yi don"t want to admit it .

This answer is harder to take than a sudden failure after years of devising .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
Zhao Yi has always held women in contempt .

To him, no matter where a woman is from, a powerful family or the street, she is a toy to amuse men .

It explains why his argument was full of mistakes when he was with Ah Zhao .

Because to deal with a woman isn"t worth all the trouble to him .

It was already unexpected to him that that woman Qin Zhao had the guts to beat him up . How come she had the nerve to tell others about it?

Wasn"t she afraid that her reputation would be ruined?

Besides, how come the emperor would take so many efforts to investigate him just because of a woman?

Zhao Yi sits on the ground, still kneeling . He feels what has happened is extremely ridiculous .

What he doesn"t know is that he is the only one who has been ridiculous from the start .

If Ah Zhao knows what he has on his mind, she will probably regret not kicking him harder that day .

Zhao Yi is taken away .

The next day .

When Emperor Huizong holds court, he speaks over ten names of ministers, discharging them from their posts while initiating investigations on them resolutely .

What is more shocking comes after that: how does he deal with Prince Fu and Prince Yi .

Prince Yi has formed a clique for self-serving purposes and engaged in conspiratorial activities . He will be deprived of his t.i.tle, sent to the imperial mausoleum and isn"t allowed into the capital of Yan for the rest of his life .

Prince Fu is given five cities in the south-west as his fief, t.i.tled Prince Xinan . He is ordered to guard that area and leave for the south-west at once .

Both the court and the commons are shocked .

Many people don"t know what Prince Yi has done . However, with this order from His Majesty, Prince Yi"s life is basically ruined .

Since he has always been low-profile and unnoticeable, the crowd does nothing more than confuse and sigh .

The person that really surprises them is Prince Fu .

This order looks like a promotion while in fact it destroys Prince Fu"s ambition completely .

What kind of place is the south-west?

A barren wasteland . A frontier with locals tough as nails who are difficult to manage .

Any prince with at least a little favor from His Majesty won"t be ordered to this kind of place, let alone His Majesty"s eldest son, whose mother is the n.o.ble consort who runs the imperial harem .


However, before all those at court return to themselves, Emperor Huizong announces his third order .

The last order is the most shocking one by far .

The third prince, who once was Prince Yan is now the crown prince .

Prince Yan?

If it is before the witchcraft case, this order wouldn"t be so surprising .

However, after the case, Prince Yan has been deprived of his t.i.tle and sent to the cold palace, everybody has thought that Prince Yan is screwed .

But such an order suddenly comes out .

Besides being shocked, everybody could only sigh to themselves that Prince Yan really enjoys great favor from His Majesty .

He could actually change his fortunes in such dire straits .

Prince Fu is kicked out of the capital of Yan and Prince Yi is deprived of his t.i.tle .

The winner, without a doubt, is the crown prince .

A quick-witted minister is already thinking about whether there is any girl of proper age in his family . Though she couldn"t be the legitimate wife of the crown prince, it is good enough for her to be the crown prince"s concubine .

Some secretly turn their eyes to Prince Beiding who is standing in front of other ministers .

They still remember that Princess Yan and Prince Yan were going to divorce when Prince Yan was deprived of his t.i.tle .

They wonder at the moment if Prince Beiding regrets it or not .
