Chapter 562 Extra: The Capital Wants to Return to Wutong Village
Knowing they had done something wrong and had been caught, the Lin brothers, Yunyuan and Yunze, lowered their heads and remained silent, letting Li Muqing scold them.
"Don't think I'll let you off just because you two brats are putting on this act of admitting your mistakes. Don't even think about it."
After saying that, he waved the feather duster in his hand and hit his two sons hard.
"Madam, that's enough. Stop hitting them. They know they were wrong. If you keep hitting them, someone will die."
The servants in the mansion couldn't bear to see Li Muqing beating her son so fiercely, and they all stepped forward to stop her.
The pain is felt in the mother's heart when her son is hit.
Li Muqing watched as her son's back bled from the beating she had inflicted, but the thought of how disobedient her two sons were, even daring to lay a hand on their teacher, still fueled her anger.
"You two unfilial sons, go and kneel in the front yard right now. You can get up when you really know you're wrong."
Li Muqing clutched her aching chest and said breathlessly.
"Yes!" Lin Yunyuan and Lin Yunze, the two boys, straightened their backs and walked towards the front yard.
“Madam, the eldest and youngest sons are old enough to understand things. Please don’t hit or scold them casually. If they make a mistake, you should find out the reason before you use family discipline.”
Watching the departing young masters Lin Yunyuan and Lin Yunze, and then looking at Li Muqing who was already sobbing uncontrollably, Zhao Mama helplessly tried to persuade her.
“Granny, I also want to talk to them calmly, but when I think about how they are becoming more and more disobedient and have caused such a big mess, I get angry and I no longer know what reason is.”
Li Muqing was also suffering. She also wanted a loving mother and filial son, but judging from the situation, she really couldn't be a loving mother.
"Madam, don't upset yourself. Come on, let's go back and rest." Seeing the way the mother and her two children were getting along, Zhao Mama didn't know how to advise them.
If things continue like this, the eldest son and the youngest son will definitely drift apart.
The next day
"Madam, it's a letter from the master."
When Zhao Mama saw Feiying early in the morning, she first took out Feiying's food and fed it to Feiying before taking the letter off Feiying's foot and giving it to Li Muqing.
"Finally, a letter from the master."
Ever since she learned that Lin Wenqian was going to Quanzhou for disaster relief, Li Muqing hasn't been able to get a good night's sleep.
It was all in her dreams that Lin Wenqian encountered an accident during the disaster relief efforts. Now, seeing Lin Wenqian's letter, she can finally put down the heavy weight in her heart.
Li Muqing hurriedly opened the letter from home. After reading its contents, a smile finally appeared on her serious face.
"Granny, pack your things, let's go back to Wutong Village."
Now that Luo Xi was helping to keep an eye on those two boys, she finally felt relieved.
"Someone, pack up all the young master's and young master's belongings and take them back to Wutong Village." At this moment, Li Muqing was in an exceptionally beautiful mood.
"Mother, Mother, I heard you're taking us back with you. Are you taking us back to find Second Aunt?"
Lin Yunyuan and Lin Yunze, the two young men who had just been punished yesterday, immediately perked up when they heard they were going back to Wutong Village and ran over to find Li Muqing.
"Yes, your second aunt's quintuplets said they miss you, so they had your father write a letter asking me to bring you back to Wutong Village."
Seeing the innocent, naive look in her two sons' eyes, Li Muqing felt even happier.
"Yay! We'll be able to play with Zhili and the others soon!"
Lin Yunyuan and Lin Yunze, who hadn't seen the contents of the letter, only knew that they didn't have to go to the private school anymore, and jumped for joy, probably even forgetting the mistakes they made yesterday.
Seeing the smiles on her two sons' faces, Li Muqing's smile grew even brighter. This trip wasn't for fun; it was for rigorous training!
Sons, you'd better cherish the chance to laugh now. Once you get to your second aunt's place, I don't know if you two will still be able to laugh.
Knowing that someone would take care of her two mischievous sons, Li Muqing didn't waste a moment. She quickly packed a few changes of clothes, took enough money, and set off towards Quanzhou with her children and guards.
"What? You mean Lin Wenqian's wife and children have also returned to Quanzhou?"
Inside the palace, Xiao Jingchen's mood soured as he listened to his subordinates' report.
"Yes!" Qingfeng, standing in front of the desk, nodded respectfully.
"Smack!"
"These damned bastards! I sent them to do disaster relief, not to let them go home and reunite with their families. They're infuriating me!"
The thought of Lin Wenqian and the others returning to Wutong Village to slack off infuriated Xiao Jingchen, who slammed the memorial in front of him shut and threw it on the table.
Why is his life so miserable? He's always sitting around this table, revising and revising, dealing with all sorts of trivial matters. He's exhausted.
Unaware of the situation, Qingfeng saw his master was angry and assumed that his master thought Lin Wenqian was forming cliques in private, so he kept quiet and tried to minimize his presence.
The emperor's might was indeed terrifying, but he couldn't afford to provoke Princess Changping when she was angry, so he decided to remain invisible.
"By imperial decree, immediately summon Lin Wenqian, Lin Wenjin, Yang Xiaofeng, and the officials who accompanied them to Quanzhou back to China."
"I'm working myself to the bone every day, how can they slack off so easily? Get back here and get to work!"
At this moment, Xiao Jingchen was suffering from envy. He couldn't be idle, so his subordinates couldn't be idle either. They had to keep busy in order to get rid of his envy.
"Your Majesty, Lord Lin and the others are still in the disaster area and haven't gone to Wutong Village..." Seeing the emperor's sudden change in demeanor, Qingfeng staggered, but still reported the truth.
"Oh!" So you haven't been idle all along!
"That's all, everyone can go now!" Since everyone was still busy, the memorials in front of us suddenly didn't seem so boring anymore.
After calming himself down, Xiao Jingchen continued reviewing the memorials.
However, his desire for Lin Luoxi to sit on the throne remained unchanged; in fact, as time went on, this idea grew stronger and stronger in his heart.
"Your subject greets Your Majesty!"
Just as Xiao Jingchen was pouring out his grievances, his seven-year-old son, Xiao Yize, barged into the study and respectfully greeted Xiao Jingchen.
His serious expression was exactly like Xiao Jingchen's.
"Hmm, Ze'er, what brings you here?"
When Xiao Jingchen saw his son enter, a glint of light flashed in his eyes. His son was about to inherit his father's business, and there was still hope for him to gain freedom.
"Father, I heard that Lin Yunyuan and the others have returned to their hometown, Wutong Village. I also want to go to Wutong Village and see what this place that you have been longing for is like."
