Chapter 612: Tacit Torture

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

After all, Master Li was still young, how would he know how to handle the situation? So, he acted like himself and cried loudly. He wanted to help the Eldest Prince, and his tone was full of grief, “Father, I didn’t want to hit Baili Jia Jue. He could have dodged it. But before I knew it, his head was hit! Father! Waaa! Didn’t you see his murderous look? He’s gonna kill me! You must claim my justice!”

He acted this way because every time he did, he would get what he wanted.

Therefore, Master Li had no scruples when it comes to whining.

However, his whining did not calm the situation. Instead, it tensed up the atmosphere even more.

The Eldest Prince signaled General Li desperately, trying to get him to shut Li Yu’s mouth.

General Li’s expression changed and the color drained from his face. He quickly covered his son’s mouth with his hands.

Master Li had no idea which part of what he said was wrong. He did not even know why his father reacted this way. So, he tried to struggle away from his father.

The Emperor smiled, and the smile seemed gentle. “Baili Jia Jue? Oh, little Li Yu, should you be calling his name, Baili Jia Jue, directly?”

General Li shivered upon hearing it. He pulled his son down and kneeled together. “Your Majesty, my son is young and ignorant. He does not know the rules of the palace. Please have mercy on us, Your Majesty!”

The Emperor did not allow General Li to stand up immediately. Rather, he turned over and looked at Baili Jia Jue. “Third Prince, you are the victim. How do you want to handle this?”

“Death sentence.” These two words were fitting for his style.

Of course, the Emperor would not follow his judgment. He was merely investigating how true the event was. The more murderous Baili Jia Jue was, the more truthful he was.

“You’re still the same old you, too cruel.” The Emperor spoke lightly, but he benefited from that attitude of the Third Prince. If not for that weakness in the Third Prince’s character, he would have been a threat to the Emperor.

A cruel prince would not get far no matter how talented he was. So, the Emperor was not worried about this son at all.

However, he should teach his other son a lesson!

The Emperor lifted his eyes, looking at the Eldest Prince. “Feng, what do you have in mind?”

The Eldest Prince panicked. He was afraid that the Emperor might harm the Li family, so he immediately begged for their lives. “It is indeed Li Yu’s fault in this case, but General Li has served us for so many years. Li Yu is his only son, so it is understandable for him to spoil his son. His upbringing has turned him into an immature boy, which had caused him to hurt the Third Prince out of desperation. It takes two to make a quarrel. I cannot tell what happened exactly, but since Li Yu has injured someone, he must accept his punishment. Ground him for half a month. Let him ponder his mistakes. This should help him get himself together!”

The Eldest Prince thought his words would make a difference in the Emperor’s decision to some extent, but he did not expect that his begging led to a murderous intent in the Emperor’s mind.

The Emperor could almost confirm that the Li family was no longer serving him, but the Eldest Prince instead.

A general, who held great power, formed cliques and factions for his own interest. Why would the skeptical Emperor keep such a general under him?

However, he had his worries. After all, the Li family was a noble family.

The Emperor closed his eyes while vexedly flipping around a thumb ring in his hands...

“Your Highness, your head...” Helian Wei Wei whispered softly. “The brick smashed right onto your head. Fortunately, Your Highness is still alive. Otherwise, the palace would have one prince less for no reason, and we would not know who would be the next one...”

The Emperor was still hesitating, but Helian Wei Wei’s words were the very last straw that caused his hesitation to topple down.

The Emperor knew who was behind today’s incident. Before this, he did not want to be involved in the princes’ quarrels. There was no loss in letting them fight amongst themselves.

Moreover, the bullied was the Third Prince, his least favored child.

But this time, it was different.

From his speech, it was obvious that Li Yu did not revere the Emperor.

He was just a young nobleman. How could he say something so horrible, and even wanted to murder the prince?

The man behind this incident must have been eyeing on the Emperor’s throne, plotting to replace him!

At this thought, the Emperor squinted his eyes and said, “One still dares to feel wronged after hurting a prince. I did not know that a general has become more powerful than me! Come, take both the Li’s father and son away. Bring all of the members working under the Li family to the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs. If they are still loyal to me, keep them. If they are like the disrespectful Li Yu, off with their heads!”

That was the Emperor’s true nature. He would rather kill thousands by mistake than missing out one by accident.

Since he wanted to wipe out this faction, he should uproot them completely to prevent trouble in the future!

General Li did not expect that the fighting between two children would cause such an end. He took on a ghastly expression and flopped onto the ground.

General Li had been fighting for years, but he never expected that he would taste defeat in that instance.

He had always spoiled his son, turning a blind eye whenever his son bullied someone.

He knew about this plan of the Eldest Prince. It was supposed to be a surefire plan.

Yet, the ending was a complete loss to the Li family.

Where did it go wrong?

Was that the big mouth palace maid, or the Third Prince whom nobody took notice of?

Li Yu did not know what happened to his father, but he seized the chance to talk. Struggling away from his father’s grip, he protested. “Your Majesty, why are you imprisoning us? My father is a great general of the War Dragon Dynasty. A general who fought for you! You shouldn’t capture us!”

“Slap his mouth.” This sentence came from Baili Jia Jue. His face remained elegant and noble as usual.

The imperial guards who seized Li Yu slapped him in a split second!

Slap!

The slap landed on Lu Yi’s cheek.

Li Yu’s entire face was swollen. He stomped his little feet angrily. “How dare you order them to hit me!”

Usually, he was the one bullying others. He had never suffered before, so he turned around and shouted at the Eldest Prince, “Cousin Feng, kill him, help me to kill him!”

A kid would say anything and everything when provoked.

The Emperor could bear no more. He instantly kicked Li Yu down!

That kick was so hard, Li Yu immediately flew up and fell to the ground. Blood dripped down from his nose, turning the place messy.

The Emperor’s expression was ruthless. “Saying to kill someone in front of me, it seems that the Li family is extremely audacious. Drag them away!”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The imperial guards were startled. However, the little boy who stood not far away curved his thin lips upward.

This was just the beginning...
