"Alright, my princess and prince have come to see me. So, you... just stay here in the cold palace. You are not allowed to leave without my permission."

"Come here, close the door of the cold palace and keep a close watch. If anything goes wrong, I will hold you responsible."

Then he walked away.

Shen Nian'an was left disheveled in the wind. What kind of person was this tyrant? It was obvious that he was not a good person.

However, listening to the two crying babies, Shen Nian'an smiled.

Zhou Beichen, this drama is getting more and more exciting, just wait and see.

In the imperial garden, Zhou Zhaonuan became sadder the more he thought about it.

"I want my mother, wu...wa wa wa...I want my mother, give my mother back to me, mother...dear..."

Zhou Zhaonuan cried hard, and Zhou Zeyun frowned tightly. His mother had secretly told him before that although that man was a tyrant, he and his sister were his biological children. He had no heirs now, and he would never kill them both no matter what. He was reluctant to hurt them.

"Sister, sister, don't cry."

He gently comforted his sister who had been crying since childhood. A hint of joy flashed in Zhou Beichen's eyes, and then he handed Zhou Zeyun to Deshun beside him.

Now, there is only a small round ball left in my arms.

He lifted her up, swung his big hand, and slapped her butt with a "slap".

"ah......"

Zhou Zhaonuan felt that her butt was about to be split into eight pieces.

Amid the deafening noise, Zhou Zeyun felt as if his ears were about to break. He also felt that what his mother said might not be true. For example, his tyrant father was very violent and arrogant, and he had no sympathy for others.

"It hurts, brother, please save Nuannuan."

Zhou Zhaonuan dropped a few golden beans in a wronged manner, and they dripped onto Zhou Beichen's clothes with a plop.

"hiss!"

Looking at the little round girl crying, Zhou Beichen turned his head away and didn't look at her, but his heart was full of annoyance.

It was really strange. If someone dared to be so presumptuous in front of him, he would have thrown that person out and beheaded him long ago. How could he allow her to be so presumptuous in front of him?

Why now, he felt a sharp pain in his heart?

He rubbed his eyebrows irritably with his other hand, turned his head again, raised his hand, and was about to hit the little ball again.

"Okay, stop crying. If you keep crying, I'll beat you so hard that you can't even cry anymore."

"It hurts like hell."

"Huh? Uh..."

These words really frightened Zhou Zhaonuan. The little girl was stunned for a moment, then stopped crying immediately and looked at him with confused eyes. Zhou Beichen was very proud.

It seems that this trick of scaring the imperial physician also works on his own daughter. She cries so much, so he needs to scare her more often in the future.

It was a pity that before he could come down from his joy, he heard, "Wow wow wow..."

Zhou Zhaonuan wiped her tears and said in a daze, "So Dad is just like you. Not only did he take Mom away, he also took Nuannuan away, and he didn't even let me cry. He's really something I can't have."

Deshun felt a moment of stillness, and then he hugged Zhou Zeyun tightly, and slowly and carefully looked at Zhou Beichen's frosty face.

"Who are you calling something you can't have, you little bastard."

Zhou Beichen gnashed his teeth, furious. Then, with a glance, everyone in the huge imperial garden ran away, including Deshun who was holding Zhou Zeyun.

"That's you."

Raising her head, Zhou Zhaonuan looked at him with extremely innocent eyes.

"How dare you say I'm something you can't have!!! I think you really need some discipline."

A hint of darkness flashed in Zhou Beichen's dark eyes, which was a sign of his impending rage.

"Daddy, Daddy is something you can't have. It's just like this. Mommy said that children who lie are not good. Could it be that Daddy wants Nuannuan to lie to Daddy? Nuannuan is not used to lying."

Zhou Beichen's eyes were dark and unclear. Zhou Zhaonuan looked at his increasingly domineering expression, and with a cry of "wow", she covered her eyes with her two little hands and started crying again.

"If you lie to Mom, you'll get spanked. If you don't lie to Dad, you'll also get spanked. Nuannuan, what should I do?"

Zhou Beichen never thought that coaxing a daughter would be more difficult than reviewing memorials or beheading oneself.

"Stupid, stupid, how could I have such a stupid daughter like you? You can't say a nice word to me. Saying nice things doesn't mean you can lie, and it's not a crime of deceiving the emperor. In my opinion, if I hadn't protected you, you would have died at the hands of those concubines sooner or later."

Reaching out and touching Zhou Zhaonuan's forehead, Zhou Beichen was almost mad at this daughter he had finally gotten.

At this time, Zhou Zhaonuan raised her head and saw her red eyes, slightly red nose, and unstable breathing from crying. Zhou Beichen's breathing stopped and his heart softened uncontrollably.

Forget it, no matter what, these are the seeds that I have worked hard to obtain.

"Daddy, you love to hit people and get angry so much. Sooner or later, you will be angry to death. Nuannuan advises you to be less angry so that you can be harmonious."

Zhou Beichen: “…”

He shouldn't have said those words to her just now. It was like talking to a deaf person and he didn't know what to do.

"roll!!!"

He roared and Zhou Zhaonuan blinked, but was not afraid. She was about to jump off him, but she was too late and was held tighter by him.

"Where do you want to go?"

A cold voice came, and Zhou Zhaonuan thought for a moment and said softly.

"Didn't Daddy tell me to get lost? Nuannuan, go find Mom."

A certain tyrant hugged the little girl tighter with a fake smile, "You are my daughter. From now on, you are not allowed to go to the cold palace without my permission. Also, you were crying so hard just now, why are you not crying now?"

Nuan Nuan: “…”

Her crying was forgotten by what he said.

However, as soon as I thought of it, the sound of "wa wa wa" immediately resounded through the sky.

Zhou Beichen paused, and walked towards Qianyuan Hall without paying any attention to Zhou Zhaonuan who started crying again.

Halfway through, a certain tyrant was driven crazy by the loud crying. He looked at the round ball in his arms. He wanted to hit it again, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. So he had to roar in a cold voice.

"Cry again, and I'll throw you out of the palace to feed the wolves."

Zhou Zhaonuan burped and looked at him, still sniffling.

Deshun silently complained in his heart, it’s all over, this emperor might go crazy taking care of the child.

Zhou Zeyun saw his sister's actions from behind and shook his head. Why was his sister always so stupid? She wanted to see her mother, so why didn't she just pretend to listen to the father obediently? If she pleased him, maybe she could see her mother.
