Home! And Got Shocked
Chapter 175 - Home! And Got Shocked…
The crown prince finally understood why his father treated Ye Nan-Tian like an important figure.
He finally knew about the furious side of the gentle Ye Nan-Tian.
The invincible war god had shown his power at the first second he arrived in the city.
He had perfectly shown his control of his men.
It was so law-breaking and so fearless.
[If Ye Nan-Tian wants the throne, can we even stop him?
If Ye Xiao can’t make it this time, and if the crazy Ye Nan-Tian assaults the city and wipe down the capital, can anybody stop him?
If Ye Nan-Tian knows that I am the one who should take the responsibility for his son’s death…]
He didn’t dare to continue the thought. He would have been frightened to death if he kept being lost in such thought.
[Please, gods. Please don’t let Ye Nan-Tian know the truth. When he turn mad, please make sure he won’t come to me.]
He was lucky to be in his palace at the moment. If he was looking outside the city from the top of the city wall, he would have truly been frightened to death.
What could be seen were one rolling dust clouds after another going up to the sky. Apparently, an extremely strong troop was heading over the city in a haste.
The blood guards had finally arrived at the city too.
Several thousands of their war horses died on their way.
They had been following Ye Nan-Tian’s steps getting to the city in time.
Everyone was tired.
Yet their eyes were all sharp and vigorous.
…
It was in the House of Ye.
A whirlwind blew away and the big figure of Ye Nan-Tian showed up in front of the door. He frowned and looked at the words ‘General’s House’. He felt like his home was somehow unfamiliar to him.
He was hurrying to know about his son’s condition, yet when he stood at the door, he actually hesitated whether he should get in or not.
Because he was scared.
He was afraid that he would see his son lying in bed, enjoying his last breath.
He was afraid that he would confirm that his son was impossible to cure.
"General Ye, you are back." A few men gathered around greasily.
They had been waiting for a couple of days.
They were surely from the Right Prime Minister’s house, Minister Jiang’s house and the other stupid houses. Their lords had been forbidden to get out of their houses, so they were the ones here to represent their lords. They had been waiting in the House of Ye for a chance, even though they all knew that it was nearly impossible.
People in the House of Ye hated them deep inside their bones. They surely wouldn’t let them in. So they had to wait at the door.
Now they finally met Ye Nan-Tian.
Ye Nan-Tian frowned, "What do you want?"
The steward of the Right Prime Minister’s house smilingly said, "The Right Prime Minister has been forbidden to leave the house by the king. He sent me here to take whatever punishment General Ye requires… He said that no matter what you want, we will accept. We will say no words to bargain. If you still couldn’t get over it, we can hand over our young lord, Li Cheng-Ze. You can punish him as you wish. We won’t complain anything. Even if you kill him, we will see it as something he himself deserves."
The steward didn’t make it up. The Right Prime Minister truly had said that. He had stayed in the court for decades and was one of the two most important officials, because he always knew what he should do. And he was a tricky man. He did say that Li Cheng-Ze would accept any punishments, yet he believed Ye Nan-Tian wouldn’t kill a young lad. Killing Li Cheng-Ze would be a disgraceful thing for Ye Nan-Tian. Even if Li Chen-Ze truly ended up dead, it was a good deal to sacrifice a young stupid lad to solve the problem.
