Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife Chapter 502: Name Bestowed, Reason Revealed

Li Qingmu stood in front of Qi Yun’s Dragon Bed, looking extrely awkward.

They weren’t alone; there were also two eunuchs and two palace maids present, and now that they’d heard, well...

Qi Yun’s gaze shifted slightly, coldly sweeping over them.

The four of them were quick-witted and imdiately knelt down to kowtow for rcy: "Your Majesty, spare us, Your Majesty, spare us, we didn’t hear anything! Please have rcy!"

Qi Yun squinted his eyes, rcy? This rcy, I’m afraid it can’t be granted.

"Li Qingmu, what do you think about this?"

Li Qingmu raised his head slowly: "I’ll let Your Majesty decide entirely!"

"Very well, guards, these servants don’t know the rules, take them all out and beat them to death!"

In an instant, the palace was filled with cries of agony and pleas for rcy, almost to the point of hoarseness.

Qi Yun said coldly: "Gag their mouths before you execute them!"

This was to directly prevent them from speaking the truth in their despair.

Rumors are fiercer than tigers; so things, even if they are false, can beco true if spread enough.

So for Li Qingmu’s safety, he had to do this.

"Your Majesty?"

Li Qingmu looked up at him, perhaps feeling that beating to death was too severe, but Qi Yun just waved his hand and said indifferently: "A man must be ruthless, Li Qingmu, rember this! Today, if I spare them, tomorrow, they will beco the culprits of the rift between your brothers!"

"Yes, I understand and accept your teaching!"

Outside, there ca the heavy sound of wooden planks being wielded.

The palace maids and eunuchs had their mouths gagged and could not shout, only making muffled sobbing sounds.

Long Yue had seen too many deaths in her past life, so she remained calm.

Qi Yun wasn’t wrong, being rciful by sparing these servants now might an in the next mont they’ll beco hungry wolves, turning on you.

As for secrets? It’s hard to have secrets between people; many things are only safe when kept in the heart because once spoken, it won’t be long before many people know about it.

Later, Chen Yan ca in to report that those offending servants had been beaten to death, dying miserably, to which Qi Yun nodded and let him leave.

Before leaving, he glanced at the little bundle on the Dragon Bed.

"Gurgling, gurgling..."

The small bundle was blissfully unaware of external occurrences, still bobbing his head on Qi Yun’s Dragon Bed, playing rambunctiously.

"Have you nad him yet?"

Qi Yun put away his cold deanor, looking at the chubby little guy beside him with a smile on his face.

"Not yet, I couldn’t find a good na for the mont. If Your Majesty doesn’t mind, may I ask you to bestow one?"

Qi Yun raised his head, his smile growing wider, he pointed at Li Qingmu and playfully scolded, "Little rascal, are you looking for protection for him?"

A na given by the Emperor himself ant that from birth, this child’s status was different. In the future, whoever wanted to move against him would have to get past Qi Yun first.

However, that was an insurmountable obstacle, unless Dazhou perished.

Li Qingmu shook his head: "I just saw that Your Majesty is happy."

Qi Yun looked at him with a bit of gratification in his eyes; this was an understanding child, and he said kindly, "Very well, let think."

Qi Yun’s gaze followed the little one as he crawled from one end of the bed to the other, and once almost fell off, but Chen Zhong skillfully caught the little guy without needing Qi Yun or Li Qingmu to intervene.

Resulting in the little guy not getting scared at all and still laughing naively.

Li Qingmu noticed that Chen Zhong was also a master of martial arts, but usually concealed it well, making everyone think he was just a Chief Eunuch.

"This kid is so lively!" Qi Yun rubbed his temples, sowhat helplessly watching, "However, this boy has exceptionally bright eyes, filled with wisdom. Let’s call him Jing Rui then!"

Jing Rui?

Not just Li Qingmu, even the Chief Eunuch Chen Zhong was taken aback.

The character "Rui" is actually common, and many children from noble families use it, but the key is the "Jing" in front!

Don’t forget, what’s the Princely Heir of Prince Lingjiang called?

Qi Jingyu!

For the Imperial Family, nas often share a middle character, like Qi Junji, Qi Junyi, Qi Junchen, Qi Junlian, where the middle character is "Jun."

Qi Yun giving the little bundle this na also implicitly acknowledged his identity.

Moreover, it sent a significant ssage: even though Li Qingmu might not want to recognize his royal roots due to his relationships with Qi Junlian and Qi Jingyu, this little guy would surely return to the Imperial Family in the future!

Li Qingmu looked at Qi Yun in surprise, and Qi Yun also looked at him, smiling: "What do you think?"

"I am, grateful for Your Majesty’s great kindness!"

"Alright, you may leave now! I feel dizzy and want to rest for a while."

"Your Majesty is unwell, shall I call for Imperial Doctor Shen, or perhaps, let..."

Qi Yun waved his hand, "I’ve just been thinking too much, which is exhausting, a bit of rest will do, it’s nothing serious, you may leave!"

"Yes, I take my leave!"

Long Yue ca forward holding little Rui’er, and let his little hand wave at Qi Yun as a farewell, then left with Li Qingmu.

Just as they were about to reach the palace gate, a voice eerily called out: "So things must be faced eventually, there’s no hiding; wanting a lifeti of peace, how can that be without enough power?"

Li Qingmu’s back stiffened for a mont, then he and Long Yue quickly left.

Once Li Qingmu was gone, Chen Zhong ordered to close the palace gates before slowly walking to Qi Yun’s side: "Your Majesty, speaking to him about this now, is it not too soon?"

Qi Yun shook his head: "Not too soon! They ca to Shengjing City for revenge, and now the enemies are falling one by one, soon their biggest enemy might disappear. Afterward, without the support of hatred, where should they go?"

Qi Yun chuckled, eyes sparking with brilliance, "That boy is only twenty this year, so young, there’s good and bad to youth, after all, the older ginger is spicier!"

My body... maybe ten years, or perhaps twenty? But eventually, I will have to see my ancestors and cannot protect him for life, when the ti cos, how should he manage?"

"Your Majesty, every generation has its fate..."

"That’s right, but I don’t want to see him fall into danger, that child... is more understanding and well-behaved than his brothers!"

Love nurtures affection, partly because he didn’t get to watch him grow up and feels guilty, but ultimately, the Emperor’s favor is never without reason, Li Qingmu may often argue and anger , but it’s all within limits, in reality, he’s very well-behaved.

Chen Zhong remained silent.

"Moreover, Jun Lian’s nature is too soft, but Consort Li’s nature is extre, she can move from one extre to another, and that’s not good!"

Qi Yun shook his head; he knew Consort Li too well, thinking back, how much did she hate , Qi Yun? Probably just short of devouring !

Then what happened later? Just by restoring her appearance and granting favor, she beca so gentle and pliable.

This woman changes too fast, too hard to control.

"So, in the future, I also need him to help oversee this realm!"

"I am terrified!"

Chen Zhong quickly bowed.

These words carried great weight, considering afterlife matters.

"No matter, no matter, we have to face it eventually! Alright, I have spoken too much, I should rest!"

"Yes, I take my leave then!"
