Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 215: Stop
Finally, the woman in a red long-sleeved dress sitting nearby could no longer endure it. With a face full of sorrow and indignation, she rushed toward the Eldest Prince and knelt down urgently, pleading for her children:
"Eldest Prince, it’s because my young ones are ignorant and reckless. I beg the Prince to forgive the siblings. As a humble woman, I bow to you, pleading for mercy for them both."
Having said this, she kowtowed on the Kangwu Stone once, again and again, creating a "thump, thump" sound.
The Kangwu Stone on the ground was rough, unlike the smooth floor.
After just a few bows, blood started to slightly seep from her forehead!
The woman did not cease her actions and continued to kowtow.
Ah Zhi remained silent, recalling a rainy night with banana trees drizzling in the Tingling Garden last year when she had knelt to the Little Traitor in the same manner. So much time had passed since then.
She wondered if the Little Traitor still harbored any resentment towards her.
She needed to find a time to probe his thoughts again, as being dismembered by five horses was not merely a joking matter.
The young girl with raven-blue hair adorned with a Ling Yun hairpin had a touch of worry on her face.
Faced with the woman who was kneeling and kowtowing, Xiao Li Qian furrowed his delicate brows, this...
He subconsciously sneaked a glance at Shen Chen, receiving a "that’s enough" look, and in his tender voice, he spoke: "Alright, stop now."
These five words were like a life-saving straw.
Kneeling on the ground, Lu Xiujuan felt dizzy and faint, relaxing and collapsing limply to the ground.
Ye Feng also put down the stick he was wielding, no longer taking any action; this matter was now considered closed.
Qinglian had just been led to the threshold by her brother, still pondering what she would do if he took her away. Today was Ah Zhi’s birthday banquet, and she wanted to attend. She didn’t want to return to the Imperial College, nor return to the palace.
After giving the siblings a minor punishment, her brother finally relented, and for the moment, was pleased.
Stepping in her Lotus Shoes, she ran with small quick steps to Ah Zhi’s side, pushing Shen Chen aside, holding Ah Zhi’s hand, and smiled sweetly: "Ah Zhi, I’m back."
The girl with apricot cheeks and peach-like face nodded vigorously, responding with a charming smile: "En."
Ye Feng and his family did not linger long, taking the two injured members along with a concubine-born son and daughter back home in a disheveled manner.
As if a gust of wind had passed, the family left without a trace.
After the turmoil, was the birthday banquet to continue?
The answer was yes.
Ye Yuan rose from his secondary seat and as the host, greeted everyone with a fawning smile: "This is the first time the Eldest Prince graces our humble abode, and for such an incident to occur, it truly is the oversight of an old minister. My second brother disciplined his children. I hope the Eldest Prince, with your magnanimous heart, will not hold this against us and forget this matter."
Magnanimous heart? That phrase seemed somewhat inappropriate.
With his somewhat large and dry hands, he stroked his mustache and added: "The Eldest Prince possesses a broad mind, accommodating like the sea that accepts all rivers."
Xiao Li Qian replied calmly: "En."
Lord Minister internally: Surely, the true Royal Family members possess such an aloof demeanor.
No wonder he’s the boss’s son.
"Then I shall instruct the kitchen to serve the meal. Everyone, please take your seats to dine. We’ve been busy for so long, you must be hungry, and haven’t had dinner yet."
The Eldest Prince and the Princess were still present, so they certainly needed to be entertained properly.
The recent enforcement of family discipline was quickly forgotten as preparations for the meal commenced!
The children were arranged to wait on one side, while the Ye Family went to the kitchen. After experiencing the recent events, Old Mrs. Ye was also not in the mood, and after apologizing to the Prince and Princess for any shortcomings, she retreated to the Buddha Hall.
During dinner, it was lively, and the children were generally well-behaved, causing no trouble.
Ming Yan and Ah Tao stood by as well, ready to help serve food or soup when needed.
After the meal was when the main event would begin.
