Chapter 606.2: True Nature Exposing
True Nature Exposing (2)
Tonight, there wasn’t night curfew to begin with, and Jing Wan also just let her son go play however he wanted, coming back whenever tired, not restricting him either.
In reality, without anyone restricting, the little crown prince indeed played quite crazily, and naturally also quite happy. When truly unable to play anymore, he was even a bit nervous coming back, fearing that he would get scolded. However, in reality, he had an open-minded imperial mother. Ever since she started raising him freely in the beginning, she seemingly didn’t plan on locking him back up again.
Before even returning to the palace, the little crown prince already fell asleep, the corner of his mouth still carrying a smile, even muttering in his sleep. From the looks of it, that excitement still hasn’t passed.
However, the next day, the little crown prince just became tragic. His parents needed to attend morning court, and he practically got dragged up at the same time, preparing to attend class.
Originally, because of the crown prince’s eastern palace’s configuration, it was practically just a small-scale court hall. Many people were all officials that needed to attend morning court, and on the first day, he certainly needed to meet all of them. That’s why, the time certainly won’t be that early. However, Li Hong Yuan felt that since he has started his schooling, he should start forming good habits.
If it was normally, then it wasn’t anything. After all, normally he would sleep early, but last night wasn’t the same, exhausted from playing and sleeping late. Based on the little crown prince’s sleep schedule, he at least needed to sleep until the early afternoon. Getting pulled up while still sleep deficient, this temper just instantly shot up. At this time, he didn’t care about anything else.
Don’t look at how he’s still small. His understanding towards his own status was still very clear, knowing that the palace servants doesn’t dare to do anything to him. That’s why, he ruthlessly lashed out.
The palace servants didn’t dare to forcibly let him do anything, so all just knelt on the ground.
The little crown prince continued snuggling back in bed and slept, sleeping till the end of time, all the way until……….
Li Hong Yuan wanting to pick up the little crown prince was something completely effortless. That’s why, the little crown prince in his hands was just like a little chick.
Li Hong Yuan casually had him placed on the ground. Because there was internal heating, even if not wearing clothes, he still won’t freeze anytime soon. Just, when it comes to the inside of the bed and the outside of the bed, the feeling was still completely different, let alone the ground and the bed. “Which suicidal one dares to touch this prince?” The little crown prince instantly jumped up from the ground.
Clearly, from the looks of it, one could tell that he still hasn’t completely woken up.
Jing Wan watched her haughty and misbehaving son court death from the side. Sure enough, he was used to just being obedient in front of her. His conduct in private, she very rarely saw. As the saying goes, ‘hearing the reputation can’t compare with seeing in person’. His actual conduct really exceeded her expected height. Sure enough, should let his old man ruthlessly sort him out once.
Once the little crown prince saw his old man’s face, without even needing to look at the other party’s expression again, he just instantly woke up completely, his body immediately standing upright, “Imperial father, imperial mother, when did you come?” Just like as if wanting to cover up his conduct just now.
“The suicidal one that you speak of is precisely this emperor, so when do you think this emperor came?” Li Hong Yuan indifferently said, sounding as if he wasn’t really angry.
But, the little crown prince at this time had his skin stretched tight all over, wishing to cry but there was no tears. That kind of thing, can you not cling onto? “Imperial father, this son was wrong. This son didn’t know it was you. This son…….”
“Wrong? You think that this is the only thing you’re wrong about?”
TN: All
The little crown prince expressed that his mind was still blank right now, completely not knowing where else he was wrong, wanting to look for help. In his line of sight, there was just his imperial father and imperial mother. Don’t count on being able to find the answer from the demon king. He secretly glanced towards his beloved imperial mother. Yet, in the end, his savior was drinking tea with her head down, completely not looking at him.
——It’s over! This was the most direct perception the little crown prince had. Think about it, even when not doing anything wrong, his imperial father all wanted to sort him out, and now, getting caught red-handed, won’t he end up shedding a layer of skin?
“This son doesn’t know, asking imperial father to clearly state.” The little crown prince obediently followed his intuition. It was best not to randomly make guesses.
Jing Wan had to admit, her son was indeed smart, knowing what methods to use when facing different people. In front of his old man, randomly making up things really will cause one to end up very miserably, but right now, it clearly didn’t work. Everything else aside, just getting up late, this one problem, how could he not know? Regardless whether he really still hasn’t realized or not, in front of his old man, it’ll all get determined as him deliberately pretending to be naive. Under the present society, the old man sorting out the son, that was just natural and expected, regardless of whether one was wrong or not.
Besides, Jing Wan felt that her son, in front of his old man, really was scared stupid, his IQ rapidly dropping.
“Want this emperor to point out? If pointed out, then your punishment will just increase by three-fold. ———What time is it now? You don’t know what you need to do today?”
The little crown prince opened his mouth. If you want to increase his punishment just directly say it. After saying the first half, at least give him a bit of time to think! Immediately just giving the hint, you can’t play like this!
“Li Tian Lin, even now, you still don’t know?” Li Hong Yuan’s voice raised a little.
The little crown prince’s legs went limp, directly kneeling onto the ground. From when Li Hong Yuan returned to the capital to just now, if before it was all just pretending to be pitiful, then right now, he was really pitiful.
And as he kneeled, the palace servants of his palace also all kneeled along with. This matter, seemingly appeared as if it was the little crown prince’s fault, but they, as the servants, aside from taking care of his daily necessities, sometimes, they also need to remind him of some things. Just like today’s matter, Jing Wan had even specifically let someone remind. Then, this matter, even if the little crown prince throws a tantrum, no getting up on time, they also have an unavoidable responsibility. After all, the little crown prince was less than four.
A four year-old, no matter how smart, even though you can’t say that he didn’t understand anything, you can’t say that he just understood either, if not getting up, you should think of a way, and not indulge him. Even if sleeping late, temporarily unable to get up, it’s still not an excuse to sleep until the afternoon. At least, after the morning court session, prior to him meeting with those that will teach and assist him in the future, he should already be waiting. This was the bare minimum respect one should have towards one’s teacher. Right now, letting that many people wait for him, how is that appropriate?
Jing Wan furrowed her brows. Because just now, she clearly saw her son somewhat shiver. Letting him know his mistake was one thing, but scaring him psychologically was another matter. This was two completely different concepts. But, in reality, her husband’s voice really wasn’t loud. This can only mean that the living Enma’s might sure enough was quite intimidating. Jing Wan inwardly sighed. Right now, she already didn’t want to let this pair of father and son be able to have ‘deep feelings’. For the sake of both sides, it was better for them to interact a bit less.
“Imperial father, I know I was wrong, really.” Even if really having become stupid, at this time, he also completely recalled everything.
“Since you know your mistake, then should just correct in time. Right now, what are you still dawdling around for?”
“Yes, imperial father, imperial mother.” The little crown prince hurriedly got up, letting the palace servants serve him in washing up and changing.
Originally, these people have been by the little crown prince’s side for more than just a day or two. Once accustomed, the matters can just carry out methodically, but right now, don’t know whether or not it was because of having Li Hong Yuan overseeing, each and every one seemingly were all clumsy. And once they made a mistake, it was just panicking, and once they panicked, there was just even more mistakes, practically just a vicious cycle.
As such, never mind Li Hong Yuan having a cold look, even Jing Wan all appeared a bit displeased, for a time suspecting whether or not her care towards her son was enough. How come she just left these people by his side?
