Chapter 37 (Thirty-seven) Slap
"Did my father beat you again?" Zhao Lin asked, and then asked the guard, "How many times did my father beat him?"
"Your Highness, I will punish you with one hundred lashes."
"What? I haven't had time to explain!" Zhao Lin said anxiously.
"I used my internal energy to resist at that time, so I only suffered minor skin injuries. I'm fine now," said Yan Moying.
Zhao Lin walked closer and saw that it was indeed as he said, so he felt relieved.
From childhood to adulthood, Yan Moying was often punished for Zhaolin's mistakes. In King Jingyin's view, Zhaolin's mistakes were caused by Yan Moying's failure to take good care of him. This time, the matter was even more serious, and King Jingyin would never let it go. Yan Moying had endured countless punishments for Zhaolin since he was a child. Although he felt unfair, he would bear it no matter how painful it was whenever he thought of what his mother had said to him. When he was young, he only knew that he had to live to protect Zhaolin and give everything for Zhaolin, even though he didn't understand the reason at that time. After a long time, protecting Zhaolin had already become a habit in his life. He didn't need to think about why, he just had to do it. Zhaolin also always admired him. Although he was the crown prince, he regarded him as a brother. In this way, Yan Moying gradually deepened his brotherly friendship with Zhaolin, and he had been taking care of him not only for responsibility since then.
Chapter 19
Zhao Lin went to Jinxuan Palace to find King Jingyin about Yan Moying being punished.
"Father, I didn't even have the chance to explain to you before you ordered someone to punish Mo Ying!"
"Hmph, you still have the nerve to explain to me! Do you know how serious this matter is?" King Jingyin said angrily.
"Father, I asked Mo Ying to come with me this time. We are going to collect flowers from Dihu Lake."
"What a joke! You become so stupid for one person!" King Jingyin sneered.
Zhao Lin was very surprised to hear King Jingyin say this: "Father, you...how did you know?"
"How should I know? If I don't know, the world will be taken away by others! This You Wangnian... Oh, by the way, I have also brought back the Dihu flower. Is it effective?" King Jingyin knew that this was a scam, but he deliberately asked Gao Cai. "Not yet, not for three days yet... Wizard Chen said..."
Before Zhao Lin finished speaking, King Jingyin shouted angrily, "You keep calling him Master Chen. I treated this treacherous villain well, but he actually colluded with outsiders to deal with me! I will behead him and set an example for others!"
"After three days, if the Dihu Flower is really ineffective, it won't be too late to deal with him." Zhao Lin said in a low voice.
With a "slap", King Jingyin slapped Zhaolin in the face. Although it was not very hard, Zhaolin's face immediately turned red.
"When will you wake up? This palm of mine is meant to wake you up! Alas! I have spoiled you in every way since you were a child, and that's why you have become what you are today. How can you shoulder the future of Jingyin Kingdom?" King Jingyin said with heartache.
"Your Majesty, why are you so angry with him? Be careful not to get sick. He is still a child..." Queen Liu Qimei came in and said.
"Your son pays homage to the Queen Mother..." Zhao Lin knelt on the ground.
Seeing Zhao Lin's face turn red, Liu Qimei felt distressed: "Get up, go back to the palace quickly! Let your father calm down."
"Who told him to leave?!" King Jingyin said to Liu Qimei, "You leave!"
"Your Majesty..." Liu Qimei still wanted to persuade.
