Originally, Zuo was worried that his prince would be angry with the child, but now that he saw that the posture did not look like he was going to fight or kill, he felt relieved.
He patted Shen Tianci's little head and said, "The prince is asking you something. This kid has a very stubborn temper. I don't know who he is."
Shen Tianci glared at him angrily and said loudly, "Follow dad!"
Zuo was amused by him: "Follow dad, just follow dad. Why are you so fierce? Who recruited you? If you dare to set a trap to ambush the prince, this is a serious crime that will destroy the nine tribes! It will implicate your dad!"
This father is not that father.
Regarding his mother, Shen Tianci's attitude softened a little, but he still looked at Jun Beicheng with an unkind look.
"I did this and it has nothing to do with my father! She came back last night with a gash on her back. You must have bullied her!"
"My father is afraid of pain the most. You have to bring us here. Why do you still bully others? Even the prince must abide by the king's laws!"
Thinking of his mother's pitiful appearance, his eyes turned red with distress, and he sniffed like an angry little lion.
Sure enough, it was because of this that Jun Beicheng knew it well and was not surprised or angry.
On the contrary, I saw the epitome of my own childhood in Shen Tianci. He used to protect his mother and concubine in this way.
He is solitary and brave, yet weak and weak.
That look of neither arrogance nor arrogance but grievance and perseverance really resembles myself when I was young.
It's just that this kid's face has been dirty all day long, and he hasn't seen what the kid looks like since he's been in the palace for so long.
Zuo was about to explain, but he raised his hand to stop him: "Go get a basin of water and wash his face before you speak."
Shen Lin doesn't seem to be such a rough person. The clothes his children wear every day are clean and tidy, but their faces are dirty every day. This is unreasonable.
Ah Zuo responded and went out. Shen Tianci's big eyes rolled around, feeling extremely guilty.
His mother kept asking him to paint his face dirty. He knew that he was just afraid of being recognized by his cheap father. They did look alike.
If you wash your face, it's over!
Jun Beicheng saw his nervous and flustered look and asked in a leisurely manner: "Who made the mechanical crossbow? I will only ask this once. If you lie, I will throw you and your father to the wolves." .”
Shen Tianci was so frightened that his body trembled. After spending so many days in the palace, he had heard someone say that his own father had indeed raised a wolf in the palace.
In the past, those servants who made mistakes would be thrown to the wolves as rations. This cheap father of his is a ferocious big devil!
He immediately admitted honestly: "I did it. I am just angry that you bullied my father and want to take revenge. If you want to punish me, punish me. It has nothing to do with my father!"
What he said was not adulterated at all, but Jun Beicheng didn't believe that a four-year-old child could have that ability.
She just raised her eyelids and glanced at him, and said coldly: "Don't want to say? Okay, someone, take him to the Wolf Courtyard, together with Shen Lin!"
Zuo, who came in with a water basin, was stunned for a moment. He glanced at his prince's peaceful face and immediately understood what he meant.
He put down the water basin and threatened: "The wolf in the backyard is so big. Your small body is not enough for the wolf to eat. It will be chewed to pieces by then. It will hurt. Are you really not afraid?"
It’s weird if you’re not afraid!
Shen Tianci pouted his mouth aggrievedly to prevent tears from flowing down.
His mother said that a man should not cry, but he was really afraid of hurting his mother!
Why doesn't Cheap Dad believe it when he's obviously telling the truth?
He couldn't hold back and cried out in grievance: "You're cheating! I told you that you still want to feed me to wolves! I hate you!"
Jun Beicheng was disturbed by the crying and had a headache, and subconsciously frowned.
I thought it would be easier to ask questions from a child, but I didn't expect this kid to be so strict with his mouth. It seemed that he could only ask Shen Lin.
At this time, Shen Zhaoning happened to rush in hurriedly.
She heard her son crying in the yard.
When she thought of Jun Beicheng's methods, she didn't like children, so all the possibilities passed through her mind, scaring her so much that she ran all the way in.
As soon as Shen Tianci saw his mother coming over, he cried even harder, not because he was aggrieved, but because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed and his mother would be hurt.
But in Shen Zhaoning's eyes, it seemed that his son had been bullied, and his mind exploded at that time.
"Your Majesty! Why are you bullying a child? He is only four years old. If he makes a mistake, just come to me. What did you do to him?!"
Worrying about her children, she couldn't care less and gave Jun Beicheng a beating.
Her eyes were red with tears streaming down her cheeks, and she glared angrily and forbearingly at the two culprits who bullied her son.
Zuo, who was holding a handkerchief and preparing to wash the child's face, trembled when he saw his dark-faced master.
It wasn't a big deal at first, but now it's a big deal.
He quickly explained: "Shen Lin, that's not the case..."
"What's going on? What are you doing with the veil? You don't want to use the 'sticker and official' torture on my son, do you? You are simply crazy!"
Shen Zhaoning interrupted him angrily. If there wasn't a trace of reason left, she would go crazy and tear people up now!
"Tie Jiaguan" is a kind of torture in which mulberry paper is placed on the prisoner's face, layer by layer is wetted, and the prisoner is slowly unable to breathe until he is tortured to death.
Zuo looked at the handkerchief in his hand and was speechless.
Does he look like some vicious person?
Shen Tianci explained tearfully: "Dad, they didn't want to cover me to death, they just wanted to throw me to the wolves!"
Shen Zhaoning was so angry that she just wanted to feed her son to wolves? It is simply less humane than torture!
Her pale little face was full of anger, her thin white neck was weak yet strong, tears streaked down her cheeks, and she felt completely broken.
"Your Majesty! I don't know what the child did to deserve to be thrown to the wolves. Even if you are the Prince, it is wrong to abuse lynching!"
Jun Beicheng was originally just trying to scare the children, but after being brutally beaten, his face turned black.
A pair of eyes filled with coldness: "Chen Lin, is this king too spoiled to you? That's why you have the courage to act in front of me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two exquisite mechanical crossbows were thrown in front of Shen Zhaoning.
She shrank her neck in fright, obviously scared, but for the sake of her son, she would never give up!
She glanced at the thing at her feet and saw that it looked familiar to her. She turned to her son and asked, "Did you make this toy? What did you do?"
This uninformed reaction made Jun Beicheng raise his eyebrows involuntarily. Did she really not know or was she pretending not to know?
"You call this a toy? A four-year-old cannot make such a toy."
Shen Zhaoning picked up the things, glanced at his son who was picking his fingers out of guilt, and he probably knew what was going on.
She knew that her son was so virtuous after doing bad things, but what else could this little wooden toy be if it wasn't a toy?
She raised the thing and shook it: "It's a toy. My son likes to play with this when he's free. I usually see him playing with it."
Shen Tianci looked shocked. His mother had already discovered that he was making a mechanical crossbow?
While I am glad that my mother is kind-hearted, I am also annoyed that I will be exposed soon and will definitely be scolded by my mother!
Jun Beicheng watched the reaction of the mother and son intently. It really didn't look like they were just pretending.
He stood up and walked to Shen Zhaoning, took the mechanical crossbow in her hand, installed the wooden arrow and fired it to the side.
In an instant, the tea set shattered and the fragments flew, making the mother and son tremble.
