Chapter 845: The Cold Throne

```

"I've changed my mind," Crown Prince Jiang Qun declared composedly, not feeling an ounce of shame in his words.

What do you mean I want to be emperor? Who heard that? Is there proof?

"Hey, I've taught you since you were little to keep your word and be trustworthy; have you forgotten that?" Emperor Xia became agitated. It had not been easy to coax an admission out of him, and was revoking one's word something so easily done?

Jiang Qun looked incredulously at his imperial father. Where was your honesty and trustworthiness when you pretended to be sick just now?

"Your regret is useless; I've recorded it all with the Recording Orb," Emperor Xia, knowing what his eldest son was like, had made thorough preparations.

Just honestly be the emperor, will you?

"I have no shame!" insisted Jiang Qun, stubborn as a pig unafraid of boiling water, a stark contrast to the graceful image he presented to the outside world.
