Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 609.1: Father and Son Crossing Swords

Father and Son Crossing Swords (1)

Because he will soon meet Li Hong Yuan, the ‘little crown prince’ was somewhat nervous inside. It was different from his nervousness when facing Jing Wan. He was clearly aware what kind of person his own imperial father was. If not careful, he might just get discovered. Even though this imperial father’s life experiences was completely different from the one he knew, but from this imperial father’s various conducts prior to ascending the throne, one can tell, he was clearly even harder to deal with. The imperial father that he knew of, prior to the great turn of events in his life, was still very pure and kind. Yet, this one was corrupt from head to tail.

Facing the former, he can let him think that he’s simple, harmless, and easily bullied, because normally they interact very little, and in front of him, he really was harmless.

But facing the latter, it was just completely different. Setting aside the fact that his personality and age were all greatly different from the original host’s, towards his own imperial father, he didn’t really have any fear, but judging from the ‘dream scenes’, the original host was practically docile beyond words. Wait, being very docile, and being pure and harmless, wasn’t there a common point?

The ‘little crown prince’ felt that he found a way to deal with the situation, but towards successfully fooling the other party, he still didn’t have that big of a grasp. This while, he actually hoped that his imperial father can pay attention to him less. The closer they got to the imperial study, the more the ‘little crown prince’ calmed down instead. Of all the things in the world, the only thing that can make him flustered was probably just facing his imperial mother. This couldn’t be helped. It was hard to control himself. Once he adapted more, it should get better.

“This wife greets your Majesty.”

“This subject-son greets imperial father.”

“The empress may rise.”

Jing Wan directly stood upright, preparing to go sit by Li Hong Yuan’s side. Towards their son’s situation, sigh, when used to it, it was also just that.

———–This is giving an initial show of might upon meeting? Compared to the original host when facing Li Hong Yuan, not daring to think of anything, the ‘little crown prince’s’ train of thought can run a mile. He believed that when it comes to dealing with his imperial father, he still has experience, and at this time, he also didn’t contemplate whether or not he can successfully fool him, just letting things unfold as it should. Since he didn’t let him rise, then it was just maintaining this stance.

“Li Tian Lin, right now, you even need your imperial mother to personally go invite you. Your airs sure are getting increasingly big.”

——–Imperial father, based on this saying of yours, imperial mother normally won’t go look for me. Imperial mother suddenly appearing, I was also quite startled, alright! This seemingly was something imperial mother did on her own. Imperial father, you having it all blamed on a five year old child, is it really okay? Sigh, this man that was soaked in a jar of vinegar all day, sure enough, can’t be reasoned with. “This subject-son was wrong.”

“You’re still just a son, not a subject. This kind of thing, still need for this emperor to remind you again?”

————–As the crown prince, how is one not a subject? Ever since he first started speaking, this was just what he addressed himself as, didn’t see the other you have any complaints. With your temperament somewhat changing, how come it just became this strange, bickering over this kind of trivial matter. Are you really my imperial father? “Replying to imperial father, it’s just that this son thought that since imperial father has already let this son listen to politics, then………….” It hasn’t been long since he started entering the imperial study, so this argument should be adequate.

“Li Tian Lin, did you forget, when you were still in swaddling clothes, you imperial mother just brought you along to listen to politics. Prior to this emperor returning from war, you were still rolling around in the imperial study.” Li Hong Yuan’s voice already started carrying a bit of danger.

The ‘little crown prince’s’ back faintly felt a bit cold. What adequate argument, in a blink of an eye, he just got slapped in the face. Sure enough, the memories being incomplete, this kind of thing, was quite dangerous. However, letting their five year old son listen to politics, this kind of thing, the ‘little crown prince’ already felt that his imperial father was very impressive, yet who knew that his imperial mother was even more impressive. One must bow in worship. “This son thought that the two should be different.” The ‘little crown prince’ carefully considered his words.

“In other words, in your eyes, your imperial mother’s words and actions actually don’t have any weight?”

This time, even the court officials that have been staring at the ground the whole time felt a chill.

TN: All

The ‘little crown prince’ just wanted to loudly shout for his innocence. This was completely this body’s fault, not just because of the core changing, the memories he obtained also weren’t complete.

He quickly tried to think of a way to deal with the situation. His imperial father’s anger point seemingly all originate from imperial mother. If he was suspicious of him, then it shouldn’t be this attitude.

With a flash of inspiration, he swiftly knelt down, “Imperial father, in this world, there’s no one better to this son than imperial mother. Imperial mother taking this son wherever she goes, it’s because she doesn’t have a lot of time where she can look after this son, thus purely out of her motherly love. This son thought that even if entering the imperial study, it wasn’t for the intention of listening to politics. If this isn’t the case, then it was this son that misunderstood, letting down imperial mother’s sincere affections. Thus, this son is at fault. This son is already five, yet still need to trouble imperial mother. That is this son’s fault…………”

The ‘little crown prince’ rambled a bunch, the meaning within was just, whatever imperial mother does, it’s all correct, and all good. If there’s anything wrong in the slightest, then that’s all other people’s fault. If their actions somewhat deviate, then that is also because of not comprehending imperial mother’s deep meaning, being stupid themselves. And in the future, he will certainly be diligent and improve himself. The underlying meaning was just he will stay far away from imperial mother, so the man soaked in a vinegar jar all day won’t try to find trouble for him.

Although he said it as such, but in reality? The first half was certainly sincere and heartfelt, but the second half, he’d finally got to meet imperial mother, so would he really get lost? Hehehe……

The court officials also got astonished by the ‘little crown prince’s’ words. To be able to flatter this eloquently, it was also unmatched. Should say his Highness the Crown Prince is incomparably clever, or just especially thick-skinned? Can an ordinary person say these words? Even if saying, that is also saying it tactfully and reservedly. Moreover, for better or worse, he was the crown prince, the heir apparent, so should slightly leave himself a bit of face at the very least.

If the ‘little crown prince’ were to know what they were thinking, he would just tell them without batting an eye: ‘What is face? Can it be eaten? Can it quell imperial father’s anger? Will you all come shoulder the aftermath brought about by imperial father’s fury for this emperor? If you can’t, then just obediently shut up, and get lost to one side.’

Jing Wan covered her mouth. Getting praised by her own son like this, she felt a bit embarrassed. However, did she still underestimate her son? In the past, facing his imperial father, he was never this smooth.

“You sure know how to talk well today, very much perceptive.” Li Hong Yuan expressionlessly said.

The ‘little crown prince’ however felt that there was a deeper meaning in his words, the hair on his body all standing on its end. It seems, he might have gone overboard?

Just hope that his imperial father only focus on the main point, and as for the other minor details, don’t look into.

But, thinking again, didn’t imperial father view imperial mother more importantly than his own life? At this time, if he were to ignore the main point and go think of other things, then he certainly doesn’t care about imperial mother that much. Imperial father, don’t let this son change one’s view towards you. The ‘little crown prince’ felt confident again.

“This emperor feels what you said is all correct…….”

The ‘little crown prince’ heard his tone slightly ease. Phew, he relaxed a breath. Sure enough, it was still that imperial father with deep feelings that he knew of. However, he also didn’t just relax from here. His words were correct, but his mistake can’t just be brushed over. This was the experience he gained from the ‘dreams’. It was better to obediently wait for his imperial father to finish speaking.

Sure enough………….

“……….However, as the saying goes, there needs to be a clear distinction between punishment and reward, so in the next ten days, you also don’t need to do anything else, just focus on copying books.”

It was just copying books, no problem, small case. “Yes, this son will comply by the command.”

However, the ‘little crown prince’ overlooked one thing. This current body was still young, and moreover, very rarely copied books normally. That’s why, copying books, for him, wasn’t hard, but if using this body, then it certainly will be very arduous. Moreover, the original host’s chicken scratch handwriting, he still hasn’t seen yet. Once he sees it, he probably won’t feel it’s relaxing. To want to have the words written well wasn’t easy, but similarly, to want to make it ugly to a certain degree, it also wasn’t easy.

Li Hong Yuan sat high above. Even though this brat still drooped his shoulders like usual, seemingly responding dispiritedly, but Li Hong Yuan still saw him relax for a second. Li Hong Yuan’s eyes slightly narrowed. This brat seemingly was a bit off. His finger slid over the bridge of his nose, fading out the danger in his eye.

“Alright, this emperor is also too impatient to deal with you today, so get lost.”

The ‘little crown prince’ was very reluctant inside, but he also knew that based on his current situation, the longer he stays, the more likely he will get seen through.

He pitifully looked at his imperial mother, and then secretly glanced at his imperial father. How to put it, the ‘dream scenes’, he ultimately didn’t personally experience, so can only get a rough idea. Right now, meeting face to face, it was the most direct sense. He and that other imperial father’s presence was actually not that different, but his health was nevertheless worlds apart. What he remembered the most was those last few years his imperial father forcibly endured through. His body had completely wasted away, having aged beyond an ordinary person’s level, constantly enduring the torment of his illness. However, he never showed it on the surface, his gaze dark like a pool of dead water, cold and emotionless. Every time he saw, he would all heartache to the extreme. That was his only family. But, he can’t show the slightest negative emotion, because his imperial father, regardless of the condition of his body, he was forever strong. At the same time, he hated that he can’t have Su-shi dug out and ripped to shreds, grinding her bones into dust.

Seeing the current him, he nearly didn’t catch his breath, his eyes also uncontrollably reddening again. However, he was nevertheless really happy inside.

When Jing Wan saw this expression of his, she just thought that the punishment was too harsh, and that he really was sad and heartbroken. She glanced at Li Hong Yuan, preparing to plea for him, but seeing Li Hong Yuan’s expression soften a little, she also just chose to not speak.

Jing Wan misunderstood, and Li Hong Yuan also more or less misunderstood, so the suspicions just now also dispelled quite a bit.

The ‘little crown prince’ didn’t know that he just this accidentally escaped from his imperial father’s discerning eye temporarily.

The ‘little crown prince’ left the imperial study, putting away his emotions and relaxing his body. Although he was thinking of just letting things develop naturally, but every time, he would still work up his spirit to a hundred and twenty percent. However, this imperial father’s temper sure enough was even stranger and even harder to deal with.

Compared to facing that other imperial father, the only advantage was just the age difference not being that big?

Clearly, this thought of his was absolutely wrong to the extreme. After his imperial father’s death, he’d just spent another two years, but his imperial father had lived for another twenty-one years on this side. What was ‘the age difference not being that big’, clearly it was even bigger. That’s why, the original host was pitiful, and he, in a certain sense, was even more pitiful.

Towards the reason why he would appear here, the ‘little crown prince’ was unclear, but regardless of the reason, he wasn’t at all frantic, and the following matters instead made him particularly happy. Just, he doesn’t know how long this kind of situation will last. Is it never being able to return again, or at a certain time, just like how he came, he would just unknowingly go back again?
