The Blessed

Chapter 492

The guards outside instantly ran in and soon tied all those people from the imperial palace up. And that leading eunuch shouted, “How dare you! I’m from Her Empress Dowager’s palace and I am here to announce the imperial decree! How dare you make those irresponsible remarks here? If you dare touch a hair of me, Her Empress Dowager will never let you go!”

"Is Her Empress Dowager’s virtuous name that people like you who have lost your men’s thing could stain? Someone! Pull them out and give them fifty heavy spanks each! Anyone dies, it’s all on me! Today I will punish those bad servants who even have the balls to announce the false imperial decree on behalf of Her Empress Dowager!”

They tried to move out Her Empress Dowager’s title while he tried to remove it. Even if Her Empress Dowager confronted him some day, he was not afraid. What? Would Her Empress Dowager really dare admit that she doesn’t like him? And by then, her good name she had accumulated for herself would be tarnished by the name of a bad mother-in-law! Dirty moves couldn’t be brought under the sunlight, especially for those who cared about their feathers. So the conclusion was, it was not a thing even if those people all died. Her Empress Dowager would never get her own feathers tarnished for them. Maybe, she’d even offer her a big reward to let others see.

"Yes!"

"No, you can't do this! Her Empress Dowager won't let you go..."

The guards had already seen what their crown princess was capable of yesterday. So, almost the second he gave the order, they already pulled the leading eunuch out. Apparently the leading eunuch didn’t expect he really had the balls to touch him. Now he only made shrieks there out of fear, but still didn’t forget to use threats. If it were someone else, one would really reconsider it. But Ling Jingxuan especially hated tricky servants! With a glance at the few eunuchs shaking there, Ling Jiingxuan coldly said, “Before the execution, cut off his tongue first!”

No one expected that a farmer from the countryside would be so tough, so heartless and so resolute! Receiving the order, the guards instantly pulled that eunuch out.

"Ah..."

Not long after, the horrible shrieks sounded outside. Thinking with butt, one would know what happened. A bloodthirsty smile crawled upon Ling Jingxuan’s face. He cast a glance at the remaining eunuchs, “Take all of them down and wait for His Highness’ decision.”

"Yes!"

No one dare have a second’s hesitation. With things before, no one dare bluster again. Soon the hall resumed its quietness. At first, one or two screams were heard. Gradually, the screams disappeared. Then Ling Jinghan and others came out of the screen, they all looked at Ling Jingxuan bitterly. This was only the second day. How to live in the following days? Those people wouldn’t give up so easily.

"Wen, Wu, Tiewa, do you know why I killed that eunuch?”

Turning back, Ling Jingxuan looked at the three kids lining in a row. These were only some appetizers, firstly, to sound out, secondly, to try to get to the bottom of him and see what he is capable of. In the future, their moves would only upgrade, so it’d be more difficult to deal with. So, his education of the kids should also upgrade.

"The empress dowager refuses to admit you and will also indirectly harm us. If we go to the palace with them alone, we’ll be put in danger.”

Facing their daddy's sight, Ling Wen said with a stern face and his small hands behind his back clenched into fists. Ling Wu also withdrew his usual lively and simple manner and frowned with displeasure, "They are risking their necks. Anyone who dares to look down on daddy will be damned!"

As getting along with Yan Shengrui more and more, Ling Wu's temper was more and more like his. Any principle before him was bullsh*t. Now he also had a line in his heart. Whoever crossed it was so dead.

"You are worried that they’d do harm to Wen and Wu. But adoptive daddy, will that empress dowager in their mouth come back at you?”

Tiewa had also become a lot smarter. The three little buns all had their own temper and bottom line. Actually, at their age, they were not supposed to know those things. But yesterday Yan Xiaoming came, and told them all these things in and out of the imperial palace last night, only wishing that they could be on guard anytime. Besides, Ling Jingxuan had been teaching them to think on themselves, and also told them things that kids were not supposed to know. As time went by, whatever they saw or heard, they could always draw references.

"That's also what you're worried about?"

Squatting in front of Tiewa rubbing his head, Ling Jingxuan then looked at his sons, and the two buns looked at him without blinking and the nodded at the same time.

"What you are worried is reasonable. If daddy didn’t say anything but only killed them, whoever’s fault it is, daddy will be punished. His Majesty and Her Empress Dowager’s power doesn’t allow anyone to challenge, at least not now for us. As long as daddy has a little tiny mistake, they’d hold on to it and try to kill me. But before I killed that eunuch, I used two little tricks. First, I tried to give Her Empress Dowager tall hat, and then lured that eunuch to say something wrong, and then accused of him for slandering me, and also exempted Her Empress Dowager from this whole thing. And those survived are the witnesses. Then even if Her Empress Dowager knows that I killed her eunuch, instead of punishing me, she’d only reward me. Wen, Wu, Tiewa, remember, being lenient to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself. This is not like our countryside. Killing happens anytime. Even if others may not offend us, sometimes, for our own interests, we have to know that the best defense is offense. And whatever we do, we should try to exempt ourselves from it and leave the enemies nothing on us. When smashing the enemies, we should also protect ourselves. You own noble identities, so you should know how to make use of it. When facing the enemies, try to use your identity as much as possible, do you understand me?”

If possible, he really didn't want to teach them these. As parents, who don’t want their kids to live purely and happily and have a carefree childhood? But, their noble identities had decided that they could never be like those common kids. The situation in the capital was more severe than he had expected. So, the kids also needed to learn how to protect themselves and how to fight the enemies.

"Hmm, we remember that."

Three buns nodded, perhaps they did not fully understand him, but at least they knew they couldn’t be like before. They should toughen up like their daddy. Last night, Brother Yan also said not only the imperial palace, there were also other big families. A lot of people would kiss their a*s on the surface and try to win their father’s favor, but behind their back, they’d only play some dirty tricks. So they must learn to distinguish truth from falsehood.
