Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife-Chapter 614.2: Father and Son Talk, The Truth
Father and Son Talk, The Truth (2)
In the imperial study, there was just the two of them left, and Li Hong Yuan this time didn’t bicker over his self-address again, very seriously measuring him, “Li Tian Lin.”
The same name, but the ‘little crown prince’ knew that he was calling him and not the original host. Lifting his head, he directly faced Li Hong Yuan, carrying a smile that completely didn’t match this body, “Imperial father, as expected, you’d came from that side. This subject-son figured that it was even quite early, at least, prior to you sending Gong mama to imperial mother’s side. Reversing history and rewriting fate, even though that side is still that original timeline, but to be able to see you and imperial mother connected by the heart in loving harmony, and more importantly, you have a healthy body, there really is nothing more worth being happy over than this.” Without waiting for Li Hong Yuan to say anything, the ‘little crown prince’ spoke first.
Li Hong Yuan lightly tapped the imperial desk, “What’s the situation on that side?”
“This subject-son has ruled for two years, everything is still well.”
“Prior to passing, this emperor was originally even a bit worried that your temperament would be too soft and weak, but looking at it now, you even had this emperor deceived, rather underestimated you. However, in this way, there’s also no need to worry about those court officials doing anything.” Although the ‘little crown prince’ pretended to be a child majority of the times, and of course, sometimes, he was just like a real child, but Li Hong Yuan still was able to make out some things that he didn’t know from within. As such, he just learned that this son wasn’t that useless as he’d thought. “However, now……..”
“This subject-son will go back. After meeting Grandmaster Liao Chen, this subject-son just faintly had this kind of feeling. After returning to the palace, this kind of feeling just became increasingly clear.” The ‘little crown prince’ calmly said.
Li Hong Yuan originally thought that he would feel reluctant, unwilling to accept, but looking at it now, this kind of feeling was very light, “Never thought of staying?”
“If possible, naturally want to, but if not, this subject-son also won’t insist.” The ‘little crown prince’ smiled, “This subject-son ultimately isn’t a child anymore. Some things, even if yearning, it’s not like one must absolutely obtain. Actually, it’s mostly just regrets, and during this period of time, these regrets have already become very diluted. Besides, this subject-son is the ruler, shouldering the lives of the people of the world. Without an heir, to suddenly just let go like this, don’t know what kind of mess it will become. That is the mountains and rivers that imperial father left behind. This subject-son has the duty to protect her, and moreover, have her protected well.” The ‘little crown prince’ paused again, “Imperial father, regarding yourself, you must’ve told imperial mother before, right?”
“Indeed.”
“Then, regarding this subject-son’s real identity, did you also tell her, or did she guess on her own?”
“Don’t underestimate your imperial mother’s intelligence, and further don’t look down on a mother’s keenness .”
The ‘little crown prince’ nodded, expressing that he understood, “Imperial mother raised the original one for five years, pouring in her heart and love. This subject-son’s sudden appearance let that original child disappear to don’t know where, so how could she be indifferent inside? But, because she guessed this subject-son’s identity, she thus didn’t have any barriers towards this subject-son. However, this doesn’t mean that she won’t have a scar inside. Facing this subject-son, she hid her scars, giving this subject-son all the love and care. This subject-son believes that if one were to continuously occupy this current body, imperial mother will also never change, but this subject-son knows that an unhealable scar will forever be left behind in her heart. Although very much jealous of that original brat, but this isn’t what this subject-son wants.”
“You coming and then leaving, would that not leave behind a scar in her heart?”
The ‘little crown prince’ looked to Li Hong Yuan, teasing, “To think that imperial father would actually ask such a sentimental question. Right now, you’re indeed much more human.”
“Your guts are much bigger than what this emperor had thought.”
“That’s because this subject-son knows that imperial father doesn’t actually dislike this subject-son. Especially now, having that original child as comparison, you certainly must feel guilty towards this subject-son, else you wouldn’t have let this subject-son stay outside of the palace for that many days with imperial mother.” The ‘little crown prince’ smugly smiled with certainty.
“You thought too much. This emperor has never felt guilty towards anyone before. Indulging you for that many days, it’s merely because of your imperial mother.”
TN: All
“Alright, in your eyes, there’s just imperial mother. Everyone else can all be disregarded.” The ‘little crown prince’ unconcernedly said, “Even if this subject-son leaves a mark behind in imperial mother’s heart, it also won’t be a scar, because this subject-son is grown man that, even after leaving one’s mother’s care and support, can still stand firmly and stride forward with one’s head held high. Furthermore, even the ruler of the country, so there’s nothing worth worry over. Mostly, it will probably just be longing from not being able to see, but as time passes, in addition to her also having other descendants by her side, the feeling will also gradually dilute.” Certain emotions flickered across ‘little crown prince’s’ eyes. “The original one isn’t the same. He’s still small, and because of not knowing where he went, imperial mother certainly will be worried, worrying about whether or not he was hungry, whether or not he was dressed warmly, whether or not he will get bullied, and perhaps, also grieving over whether or not he’d already disappeared.”
“That brat’s situation, right now, you should have an understanding.”
“En, originally didn’t know, but after sensing that one will return, one just roughly knew. He’s just asleep inside this body. Once this subject-son leaves, he will probably wake up.”
“When will you leave?”
“This subject-son doesn’t know either, but believe that it won’t be long from now.” The ‘little crown prince’s’ gaze was empty, “When just arriving, vaguely obtained some scattered fragments of the original’s memory. At the time, practically got drowned out by jealousy. Now, although still jealous, but won’t do anything irrational. In reality, knowing that you all are well, and will also continue to be well, it’s already more than enough. After this subject-son goes back, believe that one will also be even better than before. Imperial father can tell imperial mother, no need to worry for this subject-son. This subject-son believes that even if one’s time by her side is short, she will still remember this subject-son for a lifetime, not as the original host, but as another son.”
After determining this bit, understanding that his imperial mother’s feelings towards him forever won’t fade, the ‘little crown prince’ finally put down his past.
Li Hong Yuan looked at his smile, instantly comprehending. The first half of this son’s life was complete, even if having those ten plus years compressed down into these short ten plus days.
“Naturally will remember for a lifetime.” When Li Hong Yuan said these words, it was somewhat cold.
Towards his imperial father even eating this kind of vinegar, the ‘little crown prince’ was also helpless. However, on the inside, he was also somewhat ‘taking pleasure at his misfortune’ at the same time. Regardless of what, imperial mother was also his bane for a lifetime.
The ‘little crown prince’ put on a serious expression, “Imperial father, imperial mother’s contributions to the country that can benefit for thousands of years, this subject-son also wants to continue on the other side.”
Li Hong Yuan waved his hand, “Prior to going back, handle the daily governmental affairs. What you want to know, you will also be able to all know.”
That’s why, imperial father sure enough was long waiting for him here?! Sure enough, the matter of having imperial mother ‘kidnapped out of the palace’ won’t just be brushed over. “Imperial father, this subject-son is just five!” The ‘little crown prince’ attempted to struggle one last time, “The court officials will treat this subject-son as a monster. Once this subject-son leaves, the original……”
“Heh.” Li Hong Yuan sneered.
The ‘little crown prince’ obediently shut his mouth.
“On your imperial mother’s side, don’t say too much.”
“This subject-son knows.” Even if by being pitiful, one can obtain even more care, but he further didn’t want imperial mother to be heartbroken over those things that have already passed.
