Chapter 50 (1/2)
Yang KongQun’s face turned dark as he bellowed, ”What is going on?!” Seeing how pitiful his grandson was, he felt a wave of heartache, ”Hurry and release him!” The servant who reported the matter to the family had only said that young master Yang Wei and the young master of the Ling family had a conflict, with Ling Tian catching Yang Wei by slandering him for humiliating the emperor. Yang KongQun felt that something was wrong but the servant just did not dare to explain the whole incident. After all, how would a mere servant dare to talk about humiliating the emperor? Thus, Yang KongQun still did not know what happened exactly and only knew that it was a serious matter rus.h.i.+ng over in exasperation. If Yang Wei had offended any other family, Yang KongQun could not be bothered with it. But the moment he heard that the Ling family was the other party, he had no choice but to make a personal appearance.
”Wait!” Seeing how the people of the Yang family actually ignored everyone around and wanted to free Yang Wei, Ling Zhan roared, ”It is best for us to clarify what happened first before doing anything.”
Yang KongQun retorted, ”Old man Ling, the one being tied up is my grandson!” What he meant was: He isn’t your grandson, obviously you don’t feel the heartache!
Ling Zhan replied coldly, ”I know he does not have the surname ‘Ling’. But, he will not die even if he is tied up for a while more.”
Yang KongQun trembled in anger and managed to barely suppress his anger after taking a few deep breaths.
All of a sudden, there was the sound of horses accompanied by flurried footsteps approaching from the east as a squadron of guards dressed in armour approached! The Capital Law Enforcement Squadron! The Yang family stared at them until their eyeb.a.l.l.s almost fell off!
The Capital Law Enforcement Squadron was a special force in the capital and can be said to be the most powerful force ent.i.ty apart from the regular force. Their combat prowess was even stronger than the regular army! Ever since this squadron was founded, it has always been in the control of the imperial family. Towards the various powers and government officials in the capital, it carried a strong sense of intimidation.
Everyone from the Ling family then revealed a delighted look as Yang KongQun turned his head around, ”What exactly happened?” His hand stretched out as he grabbed the fat driver and brought the driver to his side.
The fat driver explained the whole event with a depressed expression. However, even he did not hear what Ling Tian said which caused Yang Wei to scold Ling Tian’s uncle-in-law. Since Yang KongQun was the one interrogating him, he could only reply honestly about how the young master was the one who began scolding Ling Tian’s uncle-in-law...
Yang KongQun took a deep breath of cold air! This matter can be big or small depending on the situation. If the Ling family insists that Yang Wei insulted the emperor, this grandson of his is finished for sure.
Yang KongQun was both angered and frustrated as he stepped on Yang Wei, ”Are you an idiot? He dug such an obvious trap for you and you jumped into it without hesitation?” He has his uncle-in-law, don’t you have one too? Both of your uncle-in-laws are the same person! b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Yang KongQun was angered by his grandson to the point he went silly! Yang Wei scolded Ling Tian’s uncle-in-law? Isn’t that the same as scolding his own uncle-in-law?
Yang KongQun also felt that there was definitely something that was wrong in this incident! Although Yang Wei was not extremely bright, he wasn’t so stupid either. There must definitely be a hidden explanation behind this.
An official from the Capital Law Enforcement Squadron then walked over with a cold expression, ”What is going on here? Ah? Elder Ling? Elder Yang? What are you two elders doing here?” The second half of his sentence was filled with shock.
Ling Zhan then laughed as he said, ”This old man heard that there was a mad man here who dared to humiliate the emperor in public. In a fit of rage, this old man came to take a look.”
That official then paid his compliments to the different people present before walking to the center and asking, ”What is going on here?” In fact, he was also extremely worried in his heart. While the Capital Law Enforcement Squadron belonged to the imperial family and had a high status, the two people here were not figures that he could offend. Even if they would not want to offend the Capital Law Enforcement Squadron, it was nothing difficult for them to deal with a small officer like him.
