Oh my, Lele covered his face, "Little Two, didn’t you notice dad’s face got a bit darker? Father doesn’t care about face, he cares about our safety."
"Dad, we know we’re wrong!" To prevent father from getting angrier, I imdiately hugged Ye Zi’an’s arm, speaking before Yangyang did, "Next ti we encounter sothing like this, we definitely won’t get involved."
"Dad, it’s actually not that unsafe. Uncle Ye Wu and Uncle Ye Er were there, they’re very skilled, how could they let us get hurt? Besides, Little Two and I also have our own ans of self-defense."
"You shut up," Ye Zi’an snorted coldly, "sneaking out, and you still dare to get involved in such incidents? Don’t think about dodging the shrine kneeling this ti."
"Dear Dad, what you said isn’t right," Yangyang imdiately retorted, "We didn’t sneak out at all, we left openly, bringing so many servants and maids. Don’t tell mom doesn’t know? Nothing happens in our family that escapes mom’s keen eye."
"Little Two is right!" Lele also chid in, "We even inford the gatekeeper to tell mom."
"Ha ha, even if you two are eloquent, it’s useless, kneeling in the shrine is settled."
Ye Zi’an smiled, the gloominess gone, finding the kids’ rebuttals amusing, logical and with reasoning.
But this matter can’t be brushed over easily, luckily it was just one monk this ti, what if there were more people? Two little kids relying on their little skills and acting recklessly, this can’t continue.
Soon the carriage returned to Prince An’s Mansion. Yang Chuxia had already heard the news from outside. Seeing the kids safe and sound, she was relieved, but her expression soon darkened.
But before Yang Chuxia could speak, the two brothers hurriedly holding hands said, "Mom, Dad, we’re going to kneel in the shrine!"
As they walked, they muttered, "Oh my, luckily handso dad intervened, otherwise mom would’ve surely punished us more severely."
"You better shut up, be careful if mom hears, otherwise we won’t be going out tomorrow."
"Sister will definitely be like mom..."
Yang Chuxia watched the two children’s backs, feeling both amused and exasperated.
"Wife, take extra care of the family these two days, I have to return to the palace now."
After the two kids left, Ye Zi’an hurriedly said this and left as well.
After everyone was gone, Yang Jindi looked up and asked, "Sister, am I going to be punished?"
"You?" Yang Chuxia laughed, "You were an accomplice, so your punishnt will be lighter, but there will still be one. You’ll be punished to write five sheets of big characters tonight."
It’s said that Yang Dachuan also built a school in the village, hiring a teacher, so the kids from the Yang Family can study there, and the village kids only need to pay half for entrance.
So Yang Jindi knows how to write.
"Oh, I understand."
Seeing her being so obedient, Yang Chuxia smiled again, taking her back to her own courtyard to play.
She just ordered soone to inquire about the outside matters, but the information was vague. She didn’t even know how the interrogation of that monk was going.
But she thought it shouldn’t be a problem.
Yet never did she expect the storm to co so quickly.
Ye Zi’an ca back in the evening and said that the monk confessed, claiming this incident was instigated by Prince Le, and even the commotion at the palace gate last ti was also his doing.
He even said that the burning of the Capital City’s granaries was related to Prince Le, and the military escorting grain to the northeast being ambushed and killed was also his doing.
