Chapter 245



Therefore, Yan Zhuo touched his nose and said, "Okay, my brother is quite emotional now, so I won't say any nonsense. But since my brother has brought the two princes here, you should be prepared that the birth mother of the children will follow!"

The emperor slammed a chair and said, "Come on! Do you think I am afraid of them? Two useless things, they can't even raise their own children. It's true that loving mothers spoil their children!"

Almost as soon as the emperor finished speaking, Empress Feng led the eldest prince, Concubine Ruan held the second prince, and behind them were the maids and grandmothers who took care of the two princes. They appeared in front of the palace gate in a grand and majestic manner.

The emperor glanced at him and flew into a rage, "Huang Mingquan, you old fellow are sick for a while, and you don't even know what it means to apologize for your crimes, right? I want to punish those two rebellious sons who made mistakes, instead of supporting them from behind!"

Queen: "..."

Princess Ruan, "..."

Seeing the two ladies' beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, Huang Mingquan felt so wronged that he almost cried. He knelt on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty... I am just a eunuch. I can't do this!"

"You!" The emperor was so angry that he rushed forward and kicked Huang Mingquan. Of course, he didn't kick hard. He just did it for the empress and Concubine Ruan to see.

Huang Mingquan was too embarrassed to understand the emperor and immediately covered his legs and cried loudly, showing that the emperor was indeed very angry.

In this way, the emperor's cold face made his words more intimidating. "What are you doing here? You two were naughty today and caused such a big trouble. Why can't I teach you a lesson? Is it necessary for you two to follow me?"

The emperor does not have to be so harsh on his wife because he has loved her daughter and given her a son.

But today's incident was indeed the responsibility of the two children. They were the parents, the ones who taught and were responsible. It was outrageous for them to not admit their mistakes and still come to support their sons!

As soon as she arrived, the emperor pointed at her nose and scolded her in front of the palace. Concubine Ruan's face turned pale.

The queen was calm, holding the eldest prince tightly and never letting go. Before Concubine Ruan could make an excuse, she pushed the child and said, "Go, Heng'er, tell your father what you said to your mother in Kunning Palace."

The second prince, Yan Bailing, was only three years old and timid. He was already frightened by the emperor who looked like a fire dragon in front of him and spit out some words, and he burped from time to time.

The eldest prince Yan Shuheng was actually afraid, but he could not resist the encouragement of his mother, so he mustered up the courage to take a step forward.

Before the door was opened, the emperor pointed outside the delivery room and said, "Father doesn't want to hear your reason now. You brothers, go kneel outside the door. When you, Empress Chen, and your child are safe, you can get up."

"Father..." The eldest prince's voice froze, feeling aggrieved, sad, and guilty.

In fact, my elder brother and I had no intention of hurting anyone. This was just an accident.

There were thousands of words in my heart, but because of the emperor's cold face, I couldn't say a word, and I was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

The queen closed her eyes and looked very disappointed with the emperor, but she did not plead for mercy at this time. She said to her son, "Heng'er, your father is angry. It's okay. Just kneel down. After all, Concubine Chen was in danger because of you two. This is a fact.

Just think of it as atonement for your mistakes, okay?

It's not a good thing, but we men should take responsibility."

Just a few words made the eldest prince burst into tears. He walked straight to the outside of the delivery room and knelt down with determination.

Concubine Ruan thought that the Queen had come to fight with the Emperor. She was dumbfounded when she saw this and stared at the Queen with puzzled eyes for several times.

The emperor frowned, "Why, Concubine Ruan has any opinion on my punishment?"

The Queen knew that Concubine Ruan protected her son more than she did, but at this moment, Concubine Chen was in there, her life or death unknown, and the Emperor was in extreme emotions of worry, anxiety, and anger. There was no time to reason with the Emperor!

Although she didn't like Concubine Ruan that much, she didn't want her to die, so she kindly said, "Sister Ruan, why don't you let the Second Prince go? The two brothers made the same mistake and should be punished together."

"Queen, I have asked Ling'er, and this matter is clearly..."

Just when Concubine Ruan was about to tell the truth, the Queen took another step faster, "I know, I understand your feelings, but don't say anything now, just listen to me, okay?"

"On the one hand, the fact that the two of them sneaked into the fake house and threw stones at people is irrefutable."

"On the other hand, Concubine Chen was injured because she protected the emperor from disaster. She doesn't even know what will happen to the baby in her belly. Therefore, the first and second princes kneeling to Concubine Chen are kneeling to thank the emperor for saving their lives, and they are not wronged."

These words were so clear and transparent that Concubine Ruan was speechless for a moment.

Her son's eyes were red from crying. She put the child down and said, "Young man, did you hear what your mother said? Although you and the eldest prince did not make mistakes intentionally, you have already made mistakes. Kneeling is your father's punishment for you."

The second prince shuddered and felt like crying. He was so scared that he stole a cautious glance at the emperor and trembled with fear.

How could he be willing to kneel? He just wanted to throw himself into his mother's arms and cry his heart out.

However, at this time, the eldest prince turned around and stretched out his hand to him, "Second brother, come here quickly, it's just kneeling, you won't die."

Anyway, my mother has never punished me for my mischief.

You may not know that my knees are already swollen, so this kind of punishment is nothing to me.

Of course, while kneeling, I will really pray for the well-being of Empress Chen, and for the well-being of the brothers and sisters in Empress Chen's belly in the future.

"Go." Concubine Ruan raised her chin. Poor child, what a sin.

When the truth comes out, she must tear apart the murderer who harmed her son!

In a twinkling, the two children, one tall and one short, were actually kneeling outside the delivery room, facing the hottest sun in the afternoon, and their fair and rosy little faces soon became shiny and red!

Concubine Ruan was so distressed that she could hardly sit still.

The queen glanced at her son, who was quietly lying on the second prince's knees, and shook her head, lamenting that her own son was just a little fool.

But the boy had been trained by her since he was young and was very tough, so she was not too worried.

It was not until the two children's vests were soaked by the sun that Yan Zhuo couldn't help but pick up a small stone and sneakily hit the emperor's calf. Then he stepped down and coughed and said, "Huang Mingquan, let's go and hold an umbrella for those two rebellious sons, so that they won't fall down before they come out of the room later!"

Eunuch Huang rolled his eyes secretly, thinking, why bother.

From the heart to the back, which one doesn't have flesh?

She had to do this, and the royal concubine didn't blame the eldest and second princes much.

Soon, another half an hour passed, and the Second Prince was already half sitting and half kneeling, his head resting on the First Prince's arm, his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.

The eldest prince was able to hold on, but he was very sleepy and tired, and his eyelids were like weights, and they kept falling over.

The emperor's eyelids twitched, and he looked towards the biological mothers of the two princes, thinking that if they cried and begged now, he might be able to accept them.

In the end, the family didn't ask for anything at all. Concubine Ruan quietly wiped away her tears several times without saying anything. The queen sat very straight, and from time to time she would ask gently about the situation in the delivery room...

The emperor was very frustrated. He thought, "This queen is really strong-minded and calm. Even I have to give her a thumbs up."

At this moment, the sound that everyone calls heavenly finally came from the delivery room: a baby crying, wa wa wa wa wa wa. For the first time, everyone felt how happy it was to hear a baby crying.
