Prince Xianfei was in a bad mood also today.

Whenever this prince deem to be in a bad mood, he"d be going to the shabby small yard and torture his brother.

Torturing Yan Yan was his way of making himself feel better.

But luckily, because of Zhong Qing, Yan Yan wasn"t like how he was before anymore. He was already more sufficient in learnings which he acquired from the books that he read and knowledgeable as taught by Zhong Qing.

His emotions were unsteady and he was living a crooked life, but he was taught of mere reverence. Seeing how the emperor and the princes deal with their situation, he couldn"t help but presume that even if they were rich and n.o.ble, they seem to be lowly people having a hard time adhering proper manners after all.

He didn’t have to think about it too much!

Because in fact, he also knew that his father simply intended to scold his eldest brother as a punishment.

Because of what happened today in the library of the Imperial Palace, his elder brother took out the Royal Posture to reprimand the five princes. Emperor Hinode immediately came down when he heard the news.

Emperor Hinode scolded Prince Xianfei and forced him to apologize to the five princes.

"Look at him! This Yan Yan who is a b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He"s nothing but an actor born in cheap things! What does Father see in his heart?" Xianfei thought.

Because of what happened, Prince Xianfei was not in a good mood that day. So, to make him feel better, he will only vent his anger on another person - Yan Yan.

If Yan Yan really wanted a fight, he will fight despite his young age. His young heart was very much full of hatred. Even if he was only a cub for them, for himself he was a lion that aimed to prey on them all.

But he dared not to.

Yan Yan was his one favorite to vent his anger to when he was in a bad mood, considering that he should be the highest among all the princes in the Imperial Palace.

Even after he was abolished from the palace with his mother, undoubtedly, he was still a royal blood which cannot be denied.

Yan Yan was also a son of Emperor Hinode.

Even if the Concubine was favored in the palace, the palace was still in support and approbation of Yan Yan even if the Empress" ident.i.ty was no way to be established as a Queen nor an Empress as her son"s ident.i.ty will also never be perfectly justifiable as a Prince in Imperial Palace.

And this was one of the reasons why the rest of the princes were very active.

For as long as everything was not settled yet, they will have a chance.

But what about Yan Yan? Who will stand behind him?

There were five princes willing to take the throne, but a five-year-old child was only willing to die just to bring off revenge to those who hurt him and to his mother!

The more Yan Yan thought of it, the angrier he felt.

Yan Yan looked at his brother with conspicuous bravery.

Xianfei looked at Yan Yan coldly, “Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I have not seen you in ages, but seeing you today, I can say that you have grown up a lot. You seem stronger than before, but still, a b.a.s.t.a.r.d is a b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You are still staying here in a dirty place, born in a cheap life!"

Those words, when said to normal people will surely mean a thing. It may even be a ridicule for some, but for Yan Yan, it was a different case. He wanted to endure the past because he knew that resistance would only lead to greater revenge.

And no one would care about his life and death in the palace.

But from then, he didn’t think so.

There were a lot of things he didn"t think about, but things became clear for him that day.

It was clear for him that all the eunuchs people looked down on him and occasionally throw him words which taunted him. He never dared to put his plans into action because it was also ironic that even if he disliked that he was a royal blood, still, it was the blood of the Royal Family that ran through him all the time.

He did not understand what Zhong Qing taught him for a long time, but then he just learned more than he thought he would have.

In his eyes, there were the woman and the five princes.

But perhaps, in his father"s heart and in front of the honorable princes, nothing will be more important than his own abused prince.
