Chapter 1506 - 1508_1
"Not at all, not at all!"
Ye Zi’an said these words, but inwardly he sneered, You disdain my son so much, yet you won’t release him from the palace.
When Ye Zi’an emerged from the Imperial Study, Baili Yan had not yet left. Seeing him come out, he said, "Let’s go together."
The two had just reached the Imperial Garden when they saw Yangyang wrestling with another child, soon climbing on top of the kid and hitting him while cursing under his breath, "I told you to watch your dirty mouth, I told you not to talk about my mom, I will beat you to death if it’s the last thing I do."
"Brother, don’t hit the face, target the body."
Upon closer inspection, they saw Lele holding back another child from helping, while instructing Yangyang how to throw his punches.
"Whose little brat is this?" Just as Yangyang was about to punch the kid in the face, he switched to striking the body, laughing while he did so, "Humph, indeed hitting the body is less likely to be noticed."
The two adults approached and couldn’t help wanting to laugh at the words of the two little ones.
"Lele, Yangyang, what are you doing?" Upon hearing this voice, Lele’s eyes widened, then he shouted excitedly, "Daddy!"
While straddling the child, Yangyang also waved to Ye Zi’an, "Handsome dad!"
"Yangyang, aren’t you going to get down?" Ye Zi’an, seeing him not moving, called out again.
"Handsome dad, I must teach him a lesson today. I can’t let it go. This little runt is too infuriating with his words." Yangyang said while perched atop the other, his chubby face puffing up like a steamed bun.
Ye Zi’an didn’t recognize the child, but Baili Yan did; this was one of the Tong Family’s legitimate grandsons.
"Yangyang, why are you hitting him?" Baili Yan asked calmly, "We can talk it out. Get off him and let him go first."
"Brother, you have to give face to your cousin’s father." Seeing Yangyang didn’t want to get up, reluctantly, Lele persuaded him.
"Fine, then!" Yangyang got up but not without giving the Tong kid a kick, "That’s for talking about my mom. If you dare to say it again, I’ll throw you into the river."
"What did he say about your mother?" Baili Yan asked with a frown.
Upon hearing this, Lele crisply said, "He called my mom a flirt and said she was a vixen."
With that one sentence, Ye Zi’an’s face turned dark immediately.
Even Baili Yan’s expression soured.
Looking down at the children, with the Tong child was his own illegitimate son.
The very same Imperial grandson who had fought with Lele before.
"Dad, cousin didn’t speak nonsense!" The little Imperial grandson, somewhat scared by Baili Yan’s stern face, still defended his cousin, "We heard it with our own ears."
"Exactly, Uncle Emperor, I heard my aunt say it myself, and she even said that Second Young Master Luo’s foot was injured." The Tong child also spoke up.
Before Baili Yan could speak, Lele replied, "Your aunt is talking nonsense. It is clearly your uncle who is morally corrupt, utterly deserved to be stabbed, and you deserved to be beaten, spreading rumors without knowing the truth, you’re truly unfit to be a man."
"Explain to dad what happened?" Ye Zi’an said, his face getting darker as he listened to the children.
Lele stepped forward and recounted the events that had taken place on the streets that day to Ye Zi’an.
Upon hearing this, Ye Zi’an became furious. Good job, Second Young Master Luo! You’re seeking your own demise!
Baili Yan was, of course, aware of the events of that day and became angry at once. Pointing to his illegitimate son, he ordered, "Take him to the Buddhist hall. When he realizes his mistake, he may be released."
"As for this child of the Tong family, bring him before State Duke Tong and recount today’s events in detail. If State Duke can’t discipline his grandson, I wouldn’t mind lending a hand myself."
