Chapter 137.2

Wen Chi was so angry that he didn’t care whether Shi Ye was still holding on to his feet and struggled to kick Shi Ye.

Shi Ye didn’t seem to have expected that Wen Chi’s reaction would be so intense, and he was worried about the child in Wen Chi’s belly. His face was tinged with fear as he hurriedly pressed down Wen Chi: “Be careful of your stomach.”

At this moment, Wen Chi was already dizzy with anger and he wasn’t in the mood to listen to Shi Ye’s words. Just as he had one foot free, he immediately kicked Shi Ye.

Shi Ye’s attention was all on Wen Chi’s stomach and when he didn’t pay attention, Wen Chi kicked him on the chin.

At this exact moment, Ruo Fang walked in from outside.

She wanted to come in to see if Wen Chi was obediently taking the medicine  but she didn’t expect that the first thing she saw was the image of Wen Chi kicking Shi Ye on the chin.

In an instant, Ruo Fang was so frightened that her face turned pale and she froze on the spot, not daring to move.

Oh my god ……

Does Young Master Wen know what he is doing? How dare he put his feet on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Even though His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dotes on Young Master Wen, there is a limit to everything. In the past, there were so many concubines in the palace who were in the limelight when they were favored, but they all ended up miserable when they lost favor.

Favour is something that comes and goes quickly, no one can say for sure how long it will last.

And Young Master Wen’s doing this is like bouncing back and forth on His Royal Highness’s bottom line. He’s really asking for death!

The more Ruo Fang thought about it, the more frightened she became. She almost fainted as she knelt down on the ground with a thump and boldly reminded Wen Chi: “Young Master!”

Her voice interrupted the two people who were making a scene.

Shi Ye and Wen Chi paused and then they turned their heads at the same time to look at Ruo Fang who was kneeling on the ground, shivering.

Shi Ye didn’t respond.

But when Wen Chi noticed that Shi Ye was holding his feet, he blushed all of a sudden.

“Let go.” Wen Chi urged.

“Do you know how to be shy now?” Shi Ye raised his eyebrows, not only didn’t he didn’t let go of his feet but lowered his head and bit Wen Chi’s toe lightly.

“…” Wen Chi’s scalp went numb and his head was about to explode, “That’s enough.”

Shi Ye wiped the saliva from Wen Chi’s toes with his hands and let go before Wen Chi’s blows up. He turned his head to look at Ruo Fang who was already in shock and the expression between his brows gradually became cold: “Take the medicine bowl away.”

Ruo Fang had just seen Shi Ye biting Wen Chi’s toes with her own eyes and she felt uncomfortable. She almost thought that His Highness the Crown Prince was possessed by a demon but seeing Shi Ye’s familiar cold expression in the blink of an eye, she realized that the man in front of her was really His Highness the Crown Prince.

It’s just that, at some point, His Royal Highness’s bottom line towards Young Master Wen has been getting lower and lower.

“Yes.” Ruo Fang didn’t dare to delay. She got up from the ground, took out a few candies from her cuffs and handed them to Shi Ye, then hurried out with the medicine bowl.

Although the room is large, the soundproofing effect wasn’t that great.

Ruo Fang and a few maidservants who stood guard outside the room, could vaguely hear voices coming from the bedroom. Mostly they could hear His Royal Highness talking and majority of them were his effort to coax Young Master Wen.

Ruo Fang handed the medicine bowl to a maid, then returned to her spot and started in a daze.

She thought that she and Ruo Tao had enough patience while dealing with Young Master Wen, but now when she compared with His Royal Highness, she realized that they were far from enough.

Faced with the same situation where Young Master Wen refused to drink the medicine, His Royal Highness seemed to be more patient than them in coaxing Young Master Wen. On the other hand, Ruo Tao gave Young Master Wen medicine, but she did not stop at that and…

Thinking of this, Ruo Fang’s cheeks flushed with shame and a strong sense of guilt surged in her heart.

No wonder Ruo Tao was punished so severely. If she were His Royal Highness, she would not let them off so easily.

Ruo Fang felt guilty and regretful and she started shedding tears again. Suddenly she heard footsteps and quickly wiped her tears with her sleeve. When looked up, she saw Zuo Zhi coming down the corridor.

“Miss Zuo Zhi.”

“En.” Zuo Zhi nodded and looked at the closed door expressionlessly, “Is His Royal Highness still inside?”

“Yes.”

Zuo Zhi didn’t say anything more and waited outside the room with them.

Ruo Fang gradually calmed down and quietly looked at Zuo Zhi from the corner of her eye.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Zhi noticed her gaze very quickly. She didn’t even turn his head, and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Ruo Fang was startled and looked away reflexively. She shook her head, trying to pretend nothing happened but after holding back for a while, she couldn’t help asking: “Miss Zuo Zhi, is Ruo Tao okay?”

“Yes.” Zuo Zhi said, “It’s nothing more than a bit of flesh and blood and she won’t die.”

Hearing this, Ruo Fang’s nose felt sore.

Zuo Zhi turned to look at her. She did not know whether she was comforting her or stating the truth: “You should all be thankful that His Highness the Crown Prince has changed a lot due to Young Master Wen. If it was as before, I’m afraid Ruo Tao’s body has already been thrown in the mass grave and it is not possible for you to stand here peacefully.”

Although she didn’t dare to think so, she had to admit that since she met Young Master Wen, the former cold-blooded and ruthless crown prince has gradually become more humane.

After a pause, Zuo Zhi looked back into the depths of the night with complicated eyes: “So don’t provoke Young Master Wen, unless you don’t want to live anymore.”

Ruo Fang thought of the scene she saw in the bedroom just now and couldn’t help shivering: “I see, thank you Miss Zuo Zhi for reminding me.”

***

As the days passed, the news of the emperor’s death could no longer be suppressed.

In the afternoon of that day, soldiers put up notices all over the country announcing the news of the emperor’s death, followed by gossip that the fourth prince, Shi Jin, colluded with Concubine Rong and the Hua family in an attempt to mutiny and seize power.

These two pieces of news were like two huge stones thrown into a calm lake one after another.

For a while, the originally calm lake looked like boiling water.

Since ancient times, mutiny and seizure of power can almost be equated with national turmoil. No matter who succeeded in taking the throne, the ones who suffer are the common people.

As the saying goes, “The prosperity of a dynasty brings hardship to the people, while the decline of a dynasty brings hardship to the people.1(In short, it is a story of a man on his way to somewhere else going past what was once the capital of the Ch’in and Han dynasties. Looking on at the ruins of an empire, he laments about how whenever an empire rises or falls, the people get the worst of it. Because when a dynasty is rising, the rulers will try to raise taxes, and enslave their subjects to build fancy stuff for them.)”

The death of the emperor and the usurpation of the fourth prince caused the common people to feel panic to varying degrees. There was even a lot of false news that the fourth prince and concubine Rong had already captured the crown prince and that they were waiting for the emperor’s funeral to announce that the fourth prince would succeed him.

The whole Kingdom was in a state of panic.

Even Wen Chi, who lives deep inside the mansion, had heard a lot of gossip.

T/N – So Shi Ye is still addressed as the crown prince, because although the emperor has passed away he wasn’t canonized yet and also, nobody knew the emperor was dead. And also, up until now the child in Wen Chi’s belly is addressed as the emperor’s grandson or imperial grandson by the maids and eunuch’s cuz the Shi Ye is still not the emperor.
