Thinking they had gotten away with it undetected, the guards of these mansions were no pushovers; they had long since discovered the spying of these unidentified individuals.
He Chengshan was waiting for news at home; those he had bribed had already been arrested.
After the interrogation, he was thrown directly in front of Marquis Haiping.
"Considering that the old Marquis Haiping once fought for the country, our families will not hold it against him. We also ask the Marquis to keep a close eye on his own son."
If this continues, it could lead to trouble.
These are our Prince's exact words, so this old servant will not disturb Your Majesty's rest any longer."
The one who said this was the steward of Prince Rui's mansion.
Marquis Haiping was so embarrassed that his old face turned bright red. His buttocks, which had just grown buds, seemed to be at risk of splitting open again as he pounded the bed.
If it weren't for the pain reminding him that it wasn't the right time to make any big moves, Marquis Haiping would probably have jumped up and grabbed his son to give him a good beating.
After thinking it over, he finally called He Chengshan over.
Lying on the bed, she stared at her son kneeling before her for a full quarter of an hour. All her resentment eventually turned into a sigh.
"Shan'er, you were once the heir of our Marquis's mansion. Even though I knew you were neither good at literature nor martial arts, I never considered changing the heir."
Now, your position as heir apparent has been stripped, your mother has been confined to her quarters, and your father's injuries are all because he thought you didn't know your own limitations.
Over the years, it is your father's neglect in disciplining you that has allowed you to develop an arrogant attitude. This is your father's fault.
Your father has thought it over and is preparing to send you to the border.
Since our Marquis's mansion was built by your grandfather, it cannot be allowed to fall into obscurity under your father's rule.
Although I haven't accomplished much over the years, I've learned to assess situations and act accordingly.
And you? You're just a brainless idiot. You're spoiled rotten by your mother.
Once you go to the border, you will no longer be the young master of the Marquis of Haiping's mansion, but an ordinary soldier of the Divine Dragon Kingdom.
If you want to live, then train hard and fight for your future.
As soon as Hai Pinghou finished speaking, He Chengshan was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud, his voice trembling.
"Father, Father, you can't be so heartless, can you? I'm your own son. Your only legitimate son."
At this moment, Marquis Haiping seemed to have aged more than ten years. "It is precisely because you are my legitimate son that I must send you away."
Otherwise, you'll ruin our Marquis's mansion sooner or later.
The people you hired have already been sent to the Marquis's residence.
If it weren't for your grandfather's sake, do you think you could still kneel in front of your father and speak properly?
Even if we don't lock you up in jail, we can still beat you up.
The families you were monitoring, apart from the prince, all held official positions.
It's so easy for intellectuals to distort the truth. The fact that they didn't is a sign of leniency and consideration for us.
When you go to the border, you'd better control your temper. Not everyone in this world is your parent and can spoil you.
Also, not everyone is a true friend.
Think about it, how did you even want to get that tiger in the first place? And when you couldn't buy it, who gave you the terrible idea to take a concubine?
They even encouraged your mother to propose marriage for you.
You all dislike the fact that your heads are so sturdy.
Think carefully: is someone stirring things up, or have you failed to see the situation clearly, or are you just being stubborn?
"Having reflected on your actions, you will survive your journey to the border."
