The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 1073 - 408: My Husband Is a Supporting Character (Part 7)-3

Chapter 1073: Chapter 408: My Husband Is a Supporting Character (Part 7)-3

She deliberately opened her mouth wide at Zhou Jin, revealing two rows of small white teeth, with a hint of smugness in her eyes: "Hey, I did promise you not to cause trouble with those guests, but I didn’t say I couldn’t make a complaint!"

Understanding He Tiantian’s look, Zhou Jin almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!

Damn it, you’d be better off directly going to argue with those guests.

Running to the Imperial Palace to complain, that’s causing trouble with a vengeance!

Zhou Jin could hardly imagine how the Emperor would react upon hearing this.

And how those "accused" guests would defend themselves!

But, one thing Zhou Jin could be sure of, this time, he was definitely going to offend everyone!

His dignity would be stomped on the ground!

"...I know our Prince has always been a kind person. But being kind can be bullied, they are jealous of our Prince’s double happiness, so they deliberately made him drunk!"

He Tiantian was just like a little naughty child making a complaint, lifted her skirt and ran to the Emperor, chattering away.

"Humph, our Prince was so drunk he couldn’t even recognize people, the entire beautiful wedding night was ruined!"

"Your Majesty, you must stand up for our Prince!"

Although He Tiantian was making her own complaint, she couldn’t stop mentioning "our Prince."

She directly elevated Zhou Jin’s drunken incident to being looked down upon, implying that she was speaking out for her husband.

The Emperor initially felt a bit surprised, because no matter how much he favored He Jing or liked this little girl "He Tian", she was still an outsider.

Not being able to consummate the marriage on the wedding night, such a private matter, some brides might not even tell their own parents.

But "He Tian" said it openly to him, the Emperor.

However, when the Emperor turned his head and saw He Tiantian’s big round eyes full of trust and sincerity, his heart, long hardened by power, surprisingly felt stirred.

This child, entrusted her trust fully onto him, the Emperor.

Oh no, perhaps in "He Tian’s" eyes, he wasn’t the Emperor, but merely a loving elder who cared for her.

Hm, this feeling is quite subtle.

The Emperor couldn’t describe the exact feeling, but despite the peculiarity, he didn’t find it annoying, rather found it interesting.

"Stand up? How should I stand up for your Prince?"

The Emperor suddenly felt a playful urge and asked in a relaxed tone.

"..." He Tiantian pretended to think seriously, then said with a mischievous grin like a child about to do something bad: "They deliberately made my Prince drunk, I’ll have them all get drunk!"

Most of the people who attended yesterday’s wedding did so for the face of the He Family.

And this group, mostly military generals or nobles.

Drinking was simply nothing out of the ordinary.

While a small part were civil servants or the genteel that Zhou Jin painstakingly befriended, these people, haha, probably didn’t have very good alcohol tolerance.

Not to say literati couldn’t drink, but it’s Zhou Jin’s own class and taste that’s the reason.

Besides, even if those officials could drink, wanting to drink and being deliberately forced to drink are distinctly different!

"Hahahaha!" The Emperor burst into laughter.

When asked "How should I stand up for your Prince," it was actually a test.

He wanted to see if "He Tian" was truly innocent or knowingly pretending.

And at this moment, hearing He Tiantian’s childlike words, the Emperor was reassured—this He Tian, indeed like He Jing, was sincere and straightforward.

Regarding the He Family who controlled military power for generations, if the Emperor claimed to have no defense at all, let alone stakeholders, even the ministers wouldn’t believe it.

For instance, when the Emperor just ascended the throne, he was very wary of Old Marquis Nanning.

It was because the Heir of the Marquis Mansion He Jing was a lithe scholar, while the martial He Jing was a single-minded fellow, that the Emperor slowly lowered his guard. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The Emperor would never forget, when He Jing was still alive, he promoted He Jing to Great General, that father who was already a parent, knelt before him and cried with excitement.

"Your Majesty, you are so good to me, even my father never praised me!"

The grace of discovery.

The Emperor and He Jing could be harmonious as sovereign and subject because of this bond.

And He Jing hadn’t let down his trust, in the over ten years, although holding military power, he had never shown a hint of arrogance.

He never disobeyed or disrespected the Emperor’s orders.

"Alright! Let them all taste the feeling of being drunk! See if they dare to force others to drink and ruin others’ happiness in the future!"

The Emperor spoke to He Tiantian, while his eyes casually glanced at Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin immediately felt his spine go cold, sweat trickled down his temples...
