The Crybaby Prince is Reborn, Where is the Prince Going?

Chapter 45: A Strong Desire for Power (Minor Revision)

As soon as Zhao Zhen'er was carried into the palace, rumors spread in the capital that the Regent Prince was openly carrying a corpse through the streets.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Wuming, the Minister of Rites, rushed to the Regent's Palace with his servants.

"Why did you, a young boy who hasn't even grown all his hair, bring my daughter into the palace? She's already passed away and she still can't rest in peace!"

Lord Zhao spoke harshly, as if Jinyou had really done something against human ethics and had lost all conscience.

Hearing the servants' report, Xiao Que'er was so annoyed by the noise that he pulled out his dagger and said angrily, "I'll go chase him away!"

Jinyou was not in a panic and was drinking tea leisurely. Zhao Zhener's body was placed in the courtyard, and Zhu Li was taken to the dungeon for interrogation.

"Why are you so anxious? He didn't even step into the Regent's Palace, only cursing outside. Ultimately, it's because he values ​​hierarchy and loves his daughter dearly. But if you rush out and beat him up, it would be the Prince's fault."

Although Zhao Wuming is a rough man, he is also a smart man with as many holes as the lotus root slices. He knows how to destroy the reputation of the palace with a legitimate reason.

"So let him stand at the door and curse?"

"How could that be?" Jinyou put down his teacup, and the teacup made a crisp sound when it hit the table. "It's sunny today, but it's getting colder. Lord Zhao is old, so we should invite him into the mansion for a chat. Go, Que'er, and invite him in."

"Hehe! Okay!" Xiao Que'er was ready to go, just waiting for the prince's order.

She had to politely invite Lord Zhao into the house for a chat!

Xiao Que'er went out to greet them happily, but Zhao Wuming was still cursing at the gate of the palace, and even sat on the steps to continue cursing when he was tired.

"He Jinyou is just a kid, yet he has such a vicious mind! Even though my daughter is born out of wedlock, I cannot allow him to humiliate her like this! Even a dead person cannot be buried in peace! What is he, a prince, doing with a corpse? Ah? What for? What do you think he can do?"

Zhao Wuming said that he would interact with the audience later, which instantly aroused everyone's emotions. He portrayed himself as a good father who loved his daughter and was not afraid of power, and won the recognition of the people.

A man suddenly said, "Do you think this prince has any hobbies... I heard that wealthy families all have some unknown hobbies..."

Someone said, "Ah? No way?"

The man said again: "How can he not? Don't look at his young age, but who knows how to play with flowers! What if he likes young and beautiful corpses? Take her home and make out with her..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd fell silent for a moment.

After a while, one person suddenly retched, and then the whole crowd burst into retching sounds one after another. Even Zhao Wuming couldn't help but retched.

Xiao Que'er heard vomiting sounds from inside the door.

Xiao Que'er: ? May I ask?

"Open the door!"

The guard at the gate opened the door and was shocked by the scene in front of him.

The people outside the door were retching one after another. As soon as someone stopped, they were forced to retch again by others.

Fortunately, the guards had great patience and were not led astray by them.

Xiao Que'er frowned, and with a glance of her phoenix eyes, she saw Zhao Wuming sitting on the steps.

Zhao Wuming vomited so much that tears came out. He covered his ears and the big guy looked a little helpless.

"Sir Zhao, I'm here to honor you. His Highness invites you into the palace for a chat."

Zhao Wuming waved his hands quickly, unable to speak, stood up, and flashed into the palace, faster than Xiao Que'er.

Xiao Que'er was speechless. Wasn't he being quite fierce in the beginning? He even hired someone to act, so why did he get the result of his own actions and be disgusted?

But these guys really overacted, it's disgusting!

"Uncle He? Uncle He? Where is Uncle He?" Xiao Que called twice, but there was no sign of Uncle He.

The guard said, "Uncle He has gone to the toilet."

Xiao Que'er was helpless, okay, everyone has three urgent things to do.

"Detain all the people. Wait for Uncle He to come back and hand them over to him. Don't let any of them go free. And after daybreak, no filth will be allowed in front of the palace!"

"Yes!"

He Bo is the old steward of the palace. In recent years, He Bo has been lacking energy and gradually stopped taking charge of all matters of the palace. He just guards the gate of the palace and handles some miscellaneous matters.

But he is half the master of the palace after all, and he can do things with peace of mind. Xiao Que'er will not have any psychological burden when leaving it to He Bo, so she can slack off again!

"close the door."

Closing the door blocks out the sounds from outside.

After he could no longer hear any sound, Zhao Wuming returned to his expressionless, icy face.

"Aren't you going to meet the prince? Lead the way!"

Xiao Que'er rolled his eyes behind Zhao Wuming, as if he was not the one who was in a hurry to enter the mansion just now.

Besides, the guards in the palace also have ranks, right? The two of them have the same official rank, so why are they so arrogant?

I will be bright as long as I have sunshine. It's like an old lady coming into bed, which makes me laugh!

Xiao Que'er won't indulge him. Lead the way? Lead where?

"Master Zhao has finally come to the palace, so he must take in the scenery! However, I have important matters to attend to, so I won't be able to accompany you for a stroll. I'll be leaving first, so please do as you please!"

After saying that, he left, really left, without any regrets. He didn't even leave Zhao Wuming with his back.

"You! Humph!" Zhao Wuming was so angry that he shook his sleeves fiercely. He should have not come in earlier. It was fine outside... Ugh~

There's a wolf in front and a tiger behind, I'm stuck in a dilemma. Who on earth found such a disgusting person? I'll skin him alive when I get back!

I originally wanted to find someone to ruin He Jinyou's reputation, but in the end, I ended up hurting my own side while hurting the enemy a thousand times. It would be better not to do such a shameful plan!

Now the people outside have been controlled, and when the investigation is brought to him, he can only push people out to take the blame.

Now Zhao Wuming really lost more than he gained, and he was unable to express his pain in silence.

I could only hold my breath and run around the palace.

The more he wandered around, the angrier he got. Who the hell built such a huge house? It was more than twice the size of his own Minister's Mansion! He really didn't understand the world of the rich!

Xiao Que'er left Zhao Wuming and ran to find Jinyou.

He vividly described what happened outside the door: "Your Highness, you really didn't see how those people were asking for trouble. Someone actually said you liked beautiful female corpses. Those people outside were disgusted. They didn't even need to open the door to hear the vomiting sounds. It was worse than the autopsy. I asked the guards to restrain them all and hand them over to He Bo. No one can escape!"

These words brought back some not-so-pleasant memories for Jinyou. His hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and he didn't really want to recall the scene of that day.

He sighed deeply. "Que'er, some things should be forgotten if they are not mentioned. But...how could you leave Master Zhao alone in the garden? There are snakes in that garden!"

The snakes that Qingfei raised are still in the garden. There are at least ten of them, some poisonous and some non-venomous.

It would be difficult to explain if Zhao Wuming was bitten by a poisonous snake in the palace.

Xiao Que'er scratched her head and smiled shyly. She said, "I forgot. I'll go and bring him over right away!"

"..." Jinyou looked up at the sky speechlessly. He was bad at everything and was the number one messer!

However, Jinyou was reluctant to blame Xiao Que'er. It was not accurate to say so. It should be said that everyone in the palace, excluding He Qianzhao and Fang Yizhou, was reluctant to blame Que'er.

It's not just because Que'er is Aque's shadow, but also because little Que'er seems to be only about ten years old.

He likes to play and is curious about everything. Even though he knows he is getting older, his mentality remains at the age of ten.

Qing Fei examined her and finally diagnosed that her mental state was stagnant due to stimulation.

But Xiao Que'er looks no different from ordinary people, except that he likes to play more than others and often throws tantrums, which is no big deal.

No one in the palace would deliberately or subconsciously tolerate Que'er, and would treat her as a normal girl. They just showed her more care and love invisibly.

Jinyou never took the initiative to ask Aque about what happened to them, and Aque also kept silent about it.

But Bai Mo told him that Aque's enemies had come looking for him.

He sent people to investigate without Aque's knowledge, but they only found a few clues about this group of people.

Maybe this is his current situation, not enough manpower, not enough influence, not enough power...

He thought that one day he would be able to find Xiao Que'er's enemy and avenge him.

He Jinyou has never had such a strong desire for power in his heart!
