Helian Rong glanced at the bruised and swollen faces of Helian Qin and the other two, and snorted, "What do you mean by being beaten? Nothing's wrong, is it? I think Ci'er went too far. Someone like you who dares to curse even your ancestors for eighteen generations, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to cripple you!"
...Hearing Helian Rong's obvious favoritism and protection, Helian Qin was so angry that he wanted to roll his eyes: "I only cursed that child once, and that child interrupted first. How did it become that I cursed my ancestors for eighteen generations? I will be unjustly killed by you!"
Wouldn't that be a case of wrongfully killing him?
His ancestors for eighteen generations were all figures like the great-great-grandfather, how could he dare to curse them?
Helian Rong snorted again: "He is my great-grandson. If you insult him, aren't you insulting me and my ancestors for eighteen generations? Are you trying to make trouble for Ci'er, or are you trying to make trouble for me?"
Helian Qin curled his lip and glared at Su Renzhong with dissatisfaction: "His own grandson's origins are unclear, so what's so special about his child!"
These people are treating this child of unknown origin like a treasure, not even knowing where he came from. Helian Ci doesn't even know if he is a real grandson of the emperor, let alone his child!
"Smack!" Helian Qin's words angered Helian Rong so much that he threw a wine cup at his head again.
However, this time Helian Qin was smarter and knew to dodge to the side, so he was not hit by the wine glass!
Enraged, Helian Rong pointed at Helian Qin and shouted, "What do you mean by 'unknown origin'! And who has an unknown origin? I'll say it again, Ci'er is the Crown Prince's bloodline, my own eldest grandson. Anyone who dares to question Ci'er's identity again will not be spared!"
Helian Qin was stunned by Helian Rong's imposing words.
Is this old man really eighty years old? How come he has more energy than a young person!
He wasn't wrong. Helian Ci was over thirty years old when he was found. He had been missing for more than thirty years. Who could guarantee that he was the eldest brother's child from back then?
The officials were also stunned by Helian Rong.
The Emperor is truly enraged!
However, what Prince Heng said is not wrong. This grandson of the emperor was only found after several decades, so his identity cannot be guaranteed!
However, on the other hand, the grandson of the emperor really does look very much like the former crown prince, and their heights are also similar. Moreover, he also has a blue dragon mark on his shoulder. Other things can be faked, but this blue dragon mark is absolutely impossible to fake. It was engraved on him when he was still an infant, so it cannot be faked.
In fact, the three princes also knew that just from the blue dragon mark on the shoulder of the imperial grandson, they knew that he must be real, not to mention that he looked so much like the former crown prince!
The three princes simply didn't want to acknowledge the emperor's grandson's identity from the bottom of their hearts. After all, the emperor's high regard for the grandson had already jeopardized their own positions, so how could they not be anxious?
Seeing Helian Rong so angry, Su Yun'an couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up and went to his side to soothe him: "Great-grandfather, don't be angry. If they really think that Father's origins are unclear and he is not worthy of being the grandson of the Northern Wei emperor, then it's fine to let Father come back with us. We don't care about this so-called grandson of the Northern Wei emperor!"
Su Yun'an's words caused everyone present to gasp in shock.
Does this child even know what he's saying?!
His Highness the Crown Prince is currently very favored by the Emperor, and the Emperor is highly likely to pass the throne to him. If he were to ask the Crown Prince to leave Northern Wei with them at this time, the Crown Prince might miss out on the throne!
Helian Qin and the others were not expected that Su Yun'an would suddenly say this, and they all scoffed at it with disdain.
Where did this brat come from? He's already learned the art of feigning indifference! Did he come here to study military strategy with him?
Just as everyone was questioning Su Yun'an, Su Renzhong also spoke up coldly: "Please, Grandfather, allow us to leave Northern Wei!"
"Cough cough..." Helian Rong seemed to be stimulated by Su Renzhong's words. He hadn't been able to catch his breath yet, and he coughed violently.
Helian Rong coughed so hard he could barely breathe, as if he would pass out if he couldn't catch his breath.
Seeing this, Su Xuening quickly took out a jade bottle from her pocket, poured out a pill, and fed it to Helian Rong.
While trying to soothe Helian Rong, Su Xuening glared at Su Yun'an and Su Renzhong, saying, "You two better keep your mouth shut. He can't take this kind of provocation from you two right now!"
After being reprimanded by Su Xuening, Su Yun'an and Su Renzhong immediately fell silent. The fierce claws they had shown in front of outsiders vanished in front of Su Xuening, and they became as docile as lambs.
Su Yun'an, in particular, lowered his head in shame, like a child who had done something wrong.
The crowd below was both shocked and curious to see this.
When this young prince was facing Prince Heng just now, he was very eloquent and had the spirit of a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger. Why is he so obedient now?
And then there's His Highness the Imperial Grandson, who has the temperament to retort even to the Emperor at any time, yet he's been completely outmaneuvered by this girl.
This girl must be the Crown Prince's child, a little princess. She's got the Crown Prince and the young prince completely under her thumb. She's really something!
Whether it was Su Xuening's medicine that worked or her gentle soothing that had an effect, Helian Rong's cough gradually stopped, and he finally felt better.
Helian Rong held Su Xuening's hand and said breathlessly, "Good child, I'm alright now."
Helian Rong then took Su Yun'an's hand and comforted them, one in each hand: "Don't worry, as long as I live, I will never allow them to bully your father."
Su Xuening and Su Yun'an exchanged a glance, both somewhat moved.
Putting everything else aside, the old emperor's feelings for his father and grandfather were absolutely genuine.
