The real bully

Yusheng and Pei Jin were seated in chairs looking down on the four shaking clowns surrounded by the crowd. The people were excited to see Yusheng and greeted her warmly.

Upon learning the rude behaviour of the four the crowd was angry. Though yet to curse but their glare was enough to show their anger and disgust towards the four. Some who had been victims by them were very happy and rejoicing in their sufferings.

Soon duke Li Jing and his wife arrived huffing and puffing. Their heart fell down after seeing them kneeling. They knew the matter was far from over or easy to brush off. Thus kneeling they immediately begged for mercy.

"Wangye.. esteem lord .. it's this ones fault for not teaching own children through proper guidance. Please asking to be punished" humbly begs the duke. He knew at this point it was useless to make any excuses.

He was very angry with his children and cannot wait to return back to have them sort out. Among all the previous friends and people connected to Zhou he along with few had remained from defecting earlier. He knew though having left the third prince faction he would still be seen as a thorn in many's eyes.

He had been very careful as not to attract any attention to give others a chance of being striked and yet the trouble seems to have now brought by his own foolish children's. The madam of the duke also knowing the severity begs "wangye..esteem lord.. the fault also lies on this one. Not being good enough to have ones children curbed their nature and molding them into good saplings.. asking for punishment"

Pei Jin smirks at the acting couple "Umm.. good.. still knows when done wrong... unlike the son who even though a male acts like a shrew and robber.

But benwang wants to know how his courage came to be.. it seems it was not his first time on trying to rob people or threaten them to obliging.. duke li the capital is not that big that you wouldn't hear of his good behaviour..

So benwang has come to a thinking.. of you encouraging and supporting your son from behind hmmm?..Say duke is your title a mark for your children to act so unruly that even benwang and esteem lord has to yield them.."

The duke and his wife were sweating and could only beg for mercy. Each word of qinwang was leading to make them authority abusing official.

Pei Jin rubs more salt "hmm.. let's forget about your son.. even your daughter.. rather than learning the virtue of women to become an example among noble ladies has instead learned art of deception..

Quite a tongue and brain she has.. easily turning black to white... say which mama you had ask for to have her teach like this.. or is it your women's in the duke house who are proficient in this art hmm?"

The duke and his wife were burning with shame and anger. They felt bitter and painful inside but still had to drink this poison. They knew with the entire Nanling now under qinwang it was futile for them to have the matter glossed over.

With today's act it would be almost impossible to have their daughter married into any prominent families in fear of qinwangs anger. Duke not able to hold his anger stands and gives nice beating to his son while the madam gives nice slap to his daughter.

"You animal.. how dare you act like a beast even after father has told you to behave.. good.. shaming this father.. shaming the honorable title bestowed by the holy one ah.. I will disown you.. you rascal" shouts the duke while kicking his son.

"Slap...how dare you run around...not staying in boudoir and learning good behaviour.. even if with ones brother how dare you run around without permission.. is this how you behave.. say who taught you all this vile things.. beside you none is so unruly and wild" questions the madam to her daughter.

Both the duke and madam were implying that beside these two the rest of the people were good and well behaved. They wanted qinwang not to punish the entire duke household for having two rotten saplings.
