Chapter 2686: Chapter 2686: Those Brothers, There Don’t Seem to Be Many Left

But Ji’er is his son. He still relies on the Fifteenth Prince to consolidate his power in Ying City, so that in his eventual retaliation, they’ll give him significant support!

However, he hadn’t anticipated that Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue would go to the Northern Lands and eliminate this support he had secretly implanted.

Moreover, that was his son! On what grounds did Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue decide to kill him? What right did they have? He certainly won’t let these two off easily!

Upon hearing this, An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun exchanged a glance.

How could this old man utter these words? She just couldn’t believe it; the Retired Emperor must know what his ’good’ son and the Dowager Consort Yu and her son have done for him in Ying City, and how many people they have harmed!

Even if the Retired Emperor doesn’t know about the forced abductions of young men and women, he must know about those other matters, right?

Even if he doesn’t know, he should be able to guess. Otherwise, with just that mother and son duo, what help could they possibly offer to the Retired Emperor? How could they hide so many weapons in the Prince’s Mansion and spend so much money to buy grain?

Before buying the grain grown in her space, the Retired Emperor’s people in the Northern Lands should have already collected quite a sum of money to buy grain from all around, right?

With Gong Jian there, those people buying grain will soon be rounded up.

"Retired Emperor, are you muddleheaded?"

With her arms crossed, An Jiuyue looked at the Retired Emperor with mocking eyes.

"The son of heaven, who breaks the law, is punished like any commoner. Furthermore, the Fifteenth Prince is just the Emperor’s younger brother; have you forgotten that the current Emperor has many brothers?

In this regard, Retired Emperor, you are incomparable to the current Emperor; you seem to have very few brothers, don’t you?

Jiyun, am I right?"

"That’s incorrect."

Qian Jiyun’s gaze fixed on the Retired Emperor as he responded to An Jiuyue’s words.

"The Retired Emperor currently has no brothers."

Of course, it’s not that there weren’t any by birth, but each one has been killed one by one, leaving only nephews who couldn’t be killed for lack of any excuse. Each has been made heir apparent in the capital, pampered to uselessness by the Retired Emperor.

"You all..."

The Retired Emperor heard their cold words, and his eyelashes trembled.

Could it be these two intended to mimic his past actions and kill all his sons, leaving only the Emperor alive?

"You’re too vicious, you all..."

If they dared to do such a thing, the court officials wouldn’t let them off!

"People as despicable and malicious as you, should be childless and have miserable ends!"

"We are malicious?"

An Jiuyue was taken aback by his accusations.

What’s going on now? They were just stating facts, speaking the truth, how could that be considered malicious?

This man couldn’t really believe they’d target his descendants, could he?

In all fairness, considering the sons the Retired Emperor has pampered so far, aside from the big brother, is there any other worth mentioning? Even the dogs would disdain the Fifteenth Prince previously seen!

"Retired Emperor, before you insult others, think about your own situation!"

She couldn’t stand this old man, clearly at a disadvantage, yet inexplicably seeing himself as a god demanding everyone’s respect, cursing whomever he pleases.

She did not fancy being insulted at a whim!

"Do you really think I dare not kill you?"

Her eyes gleamed with severity, and a powerful, oppressive aura surged towards the Retired Emperor likes waves crashing upon a shore.
