Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2689: Chapter 2689: Ugly People Always Make Trouble

Thinking about how his forces were gone just like that, his heart ached, and he wished he could swallow these people alive. "You stand idly by while they bully your Emperor father, you’re truly a disgrace!"

"You’ve already called me a disgrace, how is it my concern if Qian Jiyun and the others bully you?" The Emperor glanced at him indifferently and said.

"Does the Emperor father still expect a disgrace to be on your side? As far as I know, those disgraces among the commoners often defy their elders for others’ sake, and in severe cases, some have angered their parents to death."

"You—"

The Retired Emperor felt a surge of frustration, as if all the strength in his body had been drained.

How did he end up like this? Clearly, this disgrace had once complied with him, but now he had become like this, not only ignoring him when he sent people to invite him but also speaking so disobediently!

The Emperor was also too lazy to look at the Retired Emperor, and turned his head to continue looking at Qian Jiyun and the others.

"Why did you two come straight here upon entering the palace? There’s nothing much to see here. Let’s go to the imperial study room; it’s been years since we last met, let’s have a drink together."

As for the Retired Emperor, he had already given the order, just let him be in the Supreme Palace to live or die on his own.

Not to mention, as his son, he ought to provide for the Retired Emperor’s twilight years, right? As the Emperor, he couldn’t do anything too extreme, or it would attract future criticism.

"Alright, perfect opportunity to discuss the matters of the Northern Lands. I’ve entrusted everything to Gong Jian; might as well take this chance to clear out all those undercover rebels."

Qian Jiyun took another glance at the Retired Emperor, before speaking and leaving with the Emperor.

An Jiuyue, on the other hand, stood in the hall a while longer, staring at the Retired Emperor for a bit.

"Tsk, really the ugly people stir up more trouble."

She shook her head, thinking this Retired Emperor sure wasn’t smart.

Wouldn’t it have been better to peacefully enjoy his later years in the palace? At his age, with one foot already in the coffin, why bother fighting?

"You... An Jiuyue!"

The Retired Emperor, hearing her words, glared at her with bloodshot eyes.

Compared to Qian Jiyun, he actually hated this woman An Jiuyue more. Before Qian Jiyun met An Jiuyue, he clearly couldn’t defeat him, at least their forces in the Daqing Kingdom were only equal.

It was the appearance of An Jiuyue, becoming the heir of the late Prince An Yang, An Tu, that led to an irreversible outcome.

In just a few short years, he had lost everything, and even the forces he had painstakingly plotted in the Northern Lands were likely to soon cease to exist.

How could he be willing?

"Why did you have to appear, you wretch, why don’t you just... uh!"

He wanted to hurl the most vicious insults at this woman, but before he could finish, he felt his throat being constricted by a force, making it hard to breathe.

"Retired Emperor, you’d better mind your words, or I cannot guarantee your safety in this Supreme Palace!"

Indeed, an unlearned old man. Wasn’t he deathly afraid before? Why did he become defiant just because the Emperor visited once? Does he really think the Emperor cares about his life or death?

"If I want to kill you, even if the Emperor pleads, you will still die. Wulong Mountain is not like Huayan Peak, where killing isn’t frowned upon; there, how many people I kill depends solely on the mood of this High Priest Demon Heart!"

"You, you... let go... let go."
