Qin Nanjing's face suddenly darkened.
"Kneel down and don't get up before dinner! Ah Bai, watch over them."
"Okay, Mom." Rong Yubai agreed with a smile.
After Qin Nanjing walked out the door, she whispered, "Go to the kitchen and see how the dinner preparations are going."
"Tell them to hurry up. They've been out there all day and haven't even brought any snacks."
Yan Zhu couldn't help but chuckle, "Madam isn't worried about them being hungry, she clearly doesn't want them to kneel for too long. Those two hand slaps just now didn't have any strength at all."
Qin Nanjing smiled, "The general has been in a bad mood these past few days. These two little guys just wanted to vent his anger for him."
"But this matter is not serious after all. We still need to teach them a lesson. We can't let these two children learn bad things."
"Send someone to check on that lady and make sure nothing happens to her. Take some silver and send her out of Kyoto. Tell her not to come back."
"That was the sin committed by Marquis Annan and his son. Why should we care about her?" Yan Zhu was puzzled.
"Although her actions were inappropriate, if she were to die because of this, it would sow karmic consequences for the children."
Yan Zhu suddenly realized, "Yes, I'll arrange for someone to do it right away."
After seeing Qin Nanjing walk away, the two little guys sat down on the ground.
Rong Yubai waved his hand and said, "Come and have something to eat."
Rong Chaoxi suddenly jumped up, ran over and climbed onto the chair.
"How did mother know it was us?"
The little guy Rong held the cake, his cheeks puffed up, and his clothes were covered with crumbs.
"Qiqi, what did you say?"
"I didn't." Mo Qi complained, "Every time you guys got into trouble, I never complained."
"Hmm...? Then how did mother know?"
Rong Chaoxi rolled his eyes several times but still couldn't figure it out.
Rong Yubai and Rong Yuanyou looked at her helplessly.
If you say less in your heart, mother won’t know.
…
The second day.
Marquis Annan dragged his exhausted body and walked up the hundreds of steps in front of the Golden Palace with difficulty.
As the old man lifted one foot, he heard a majestic voice from the platform: "Marquis Annan, go stand outside the palace!"
The old man was so frightened that he shrank his feet, lost his balance, and fell heavily to his knees.
He was about to stand up, but then he heard
"Since you're kneeling, keep kneeling! You've done something so absurd that you've brought shame upon Dongwu!"
A woman serving both father and son is something that has only been heard of in barbaric lands.
Dongwu calls itself a country of etiquette, and its rules and rituals are extremely strict.
If this matter were to spread to other countries, they would definitely laugh their heads off!
Marquis Annan bowed his head and knelt, not daring to utter a word.
What happened yesterday was obviously a conspiracy, and he had no way to defend himself and could only swallow the loss.
After the morning court session was over, the ministers either avoided him with an undisguised disdain, or came forward to tease him with a malicious eye.
"Lord Rong is truly still strong despite his age..."
"No wonder you looked tired every day this past year. It turns out you've been consuming too much energy, hahahaha..."
"At such an advanced age, his sword remains as sharp as ever. He must have some secret technique. Could you please share it?"
"Hey! You can't learn this, or you'll be the next one kneeling here..."
The old man lowered his head, his face turned pale, and he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
His body was not in good health to begin with and was on the verge of collapse.
After the ministers left, Fuling came to the gate.
"Lord Rong, His Majesty has ordered you to stay home and reflect on your past mistakes for three months. You must not leave the house and take care of all the dirty work at home."
"Yes... your humble servant obeys your order."
The old man returned to the mansion in a daze. As soon as he reached the door, he heard the noise in the mansion again.
"Get out of the way! I can't live like this anymore! Just let me die!"
As soon as the old lady woke up today, she started crying in the house and picked up a pair of scissors and put them on her neck.
"He actually kept a mistress outside, and did it for more than ten years without my knowledge, and even took my son with him!"
"Damn Rong Yao, I curse you to die a miserable death!"
"Mom, mom, please put down the scissors, let's talk it out!"
"You little bastard! And you, I worked so hard to raise you and plan your future!"
"Is this how you treat me? This is how you treat your own mother!"
The old lady was shaking with anger.
The sharp scissors pressed against his flesh. Rong Qiwang was afraid that she would accidentally pierce him, so he quickly knelt down and admitted his mistake.
"Mom, it's my son's fault. It's okay if my son is wrong! Put down the scissors quickly."
"Hurry! Please, mother, put down the scissors."
He pulled Hu down to kneel.
"Don't touch me!"
Mrs. Hu suddenly shook off his hand.
"You dirty, smelly man! I'll beat you to death!"
"How can Han'er hold his head up high in the future after you do such a thing! Bastard, bastard!"
The anger from yesterday had not yet subsided, and Hu once again threw Rong Qiwang to the ground, tearing and punching him.
When the old lady saw her son being beaten, she decided not to commit suicide. She threw down the scissors, pulled Hu away, and slapped Hu hard in the face.
"You stinky bitch, you beat Wang'er like that, and you still dare to hit him!"
"Old woman, you hit me again. I've tolerated you for a long time!"
Then she bit Rong Qiwang's shoulder.
“Ahhhh——” Rong Qiwang screamed in pain, “Crazy woman, let go, let go quickly…”
Then, the three of them wrestled in a circle.
None of the maids and servants dared to step forward to stop the fight.
The old man walked to the door, took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the study.
Rong Shihan went to the alley where Mei Niang lived to investigate who had leaked the matter yesterday.
After asking just two people, he was hurriedly dragged back by the sweaty butler Chen.
After Rong Shihan came back, the fight between the three finally stopped.
Their clothes were torn into strips, their hair was a mess, their faces and noses were bruised, and the old lady had lost two teeth.
Rong Shihan held his forehead, looking at the smoky house, feeling exhausted both physically and mentally.
"You guys...that's enough!"
He arranged for the four of them to separate and not meet again in the near future.
"elder brother……"
At the door, a little girl looked timidly at Rong Shihan, who looked tired.
"Yue'e."
Seeing his younger sister, Rong Shihan's expression softened a little.
"Mom and Dad are fine, don't be afraid, come here."
Rong Yue'e is now three years old and is old enough to go to school, but so many things have happened at home recently that she has been neglected.
Rong Shihan hugged his sister and finally felt a little relieved.
"Tonight, brother will take you out for dinner, okay?"
"Okay." Rong Yue'e nodded obediently, "Brother, you can't do bad things."
Rong Shihan was startled when he heard this, then nodded, "Yes, we can't do bad things."
Rong Yue'e was still young, so they never avoided talking to her.
Therefore, Rong Yue'e knew that the current result was all their own fault.
My brother is the only clean person in the family.
She just hoped he wouldn't make the same mistakes as everyone else.
Rong Yue'e lay on Rong Shihan's shoulder,
'Brother, you must not do anything bad.'
