After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince

Huang Jiuyuan smiled. The scene of loving father and filial son in front of him made him feel uncomfortable.

The Prime Minister caught a glimpse of the smile on his face and rushed over to grab his collar, ready to slap him. At this moment, a voice came from outside the hall, "You dare! If you dare to hit him today, I will hang myself at the gate of the Prime Minister's residence tomorrow."

The Prime Minister suppressed his anger and withdrew his hand.

Huang Xie'er walked out, supporting the old lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion. This was the Prime Minister's mother, Huang Jiuyuan's grandmother, who was nearly sixty years old. It was she who had just spoken.

She usually dotes on her legitimate grandson Huang Jiuyuan the most. In her eyes, the rules of family separation are very strict, which is why she loves Huang Jiuyuan so much.

Looking at Huang Jiuyuan sitting and lying on the ground, with one side of his face flushed and blood still on the corner of his mouth, the old lady felt furious. She limped over angrily. As she was old, every step she took was very difficult, and she was trembling with anger.

"You... you want to beat him to death? If you beat him to death, you want to kill me too." The old lady yelled at the prime minister angrily, and was about to help her grandson up with heartache. Huang Xieer hurriedly stopped her and helped Huang Jiuyuan, who was sitting on the ground.

The Prime Minister's expression changed. The raging anger from earlier was gone. Now his face was filled with fear, as if he had been caught. He hurriedly explained, "Mother, you are doting on this rebellious son too much. If you continue to indulge him like this, who knows what kind of character he will become."

"How can you say that about a child? As the saying goes, it's the father's fault if the son is not well educated. Is it really not your fault that Yuan'er is like this now? If his mother had not died early, and you had not hurriedly taken in several concubines and neglected to discipline him, would he be like this?" The old lady loved this grandson who lost his mother at a young age very much, and she felt even more pity for him.

The Prime Minister asked, "Mother, why are you bringing up the past again? This rebellious son has done something wrong, and I, as his father, can't discipline him, yet you're blaming me?"

The old lady in the prime minister's residence was filled with anger and spoke with great authority. She was the highest-ranking official in the mansion and everyone was afraid of her, including the prime minister. "Tell me what treasonous act you have committed?"

The Prime Minister glanced at Huang Jiuyuan, who was standing behind the old lady. Huang Jiuyuan's face was bruised and he looked a bit embarrassed. His voice was a degree lower than before, and he roared, "Rebellious son, speak for yourself."

Huang Jiuyuan just felt very angry at this moment. He looked at his father, who beat him up without any reason. Then he looked at Huang Weiming, who pretended to pity his brother. He really wanted to go up and beat him up.

The old lady of the Xiangfu asked softly, "Yuan'er, what's the matter? Tell grandma and she will make the decision for you."

The old lady of the Xiangfu Mansion knew her grandson well. Although he had a bad reputation, he did things that did not cause much trouble. There must be a misunderstanding.

Huang Jiuyuan really didn't want to say anything more. He touched the corner of his mouth that was throbbing with pain, breathing heavily, and shook his head heavily.

The old lady in the prime minister's mansion knew it all. Huang Jiuyuan was sometimes very stubborn. At this time, even if he was hit dozens of times with a mace, he could endure it without saying a word.

She looked at the Prime Minister helplessly and said angrily, "You say."

The Prime Minister evaded the question and looked at Huang Weiming. Huang Weiming immediately understood and said politely, "Grandmother..."

The words were interrupted.

The old lady of the Xiangfu frowned slightly. Why was Huang Weiming always there whenever Huang Jiuyuan got into trouble? She said impatiently, "Don't call me grandma so nicely. Are you... trying to harm your eldest brother again?"

Huang Weiming's face was filled with displeasure for a moment, and a look of grievance appeared on his face. He said, "Weiming is wrong. He didn't stop my father."

The Prime Minister said, "Alright, Mother, it's ok for you to spoil this rebellious son, but you shouldn't take it out on other innocent children."

The old lady in the Xiangfu glared at the Prime Minister, who took back his words. The old lady then urged, "Tell me quickly, what happened?"

"Brother...Brother's marriage to Miss Shen has fallen through."

"Which Shen family?"

"Ministry of Personnel...the home of the Minister of Personnel."

Huang Weiming lowered his head slightly while speaking, not daring to look at the old lady, for fear that she would be seen through. The old lady had a pair of eagle eyes, which were intimidating.

The old lady of the Xiangfu laughed after hearing this. "I thought it was a big deal. That fool girl from the Shen family is not worthy of Yuan'er. Although Yuan'er has a reputation as a fool, she has been by my side for many years and has some real talents and knowledge. If he really marries a girl from the Shen family, a fool paired with a fool, he will definitely be ridiculed."

She glared at the Prime Minister, "Do you really think this is a good marriage? Your mother taught you from a young age that you should be ambitious, but you should also be cautious before doing anything. I don't think you're angry about the loss of this marriage, but you're worried about the impact on your influence in the court. Why can't you just sit there and enjoy your position as Prime Minister? Why do you have to stir up trouble everywhere?"

The prime minister's face turned red. He wanted to refute but didn't know how. Every word her mother said was true, but he felt very embarrassed to expose her in front of the children.

He had originally been venting his anger under the pretext of doing good for Huang Jiuyuan, but now her mother's words made him look wrong.

"Mother, why are you so suspicious of me? With Jiuyuan's current reputation, which family would be willing to marry their daughter into the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

The old lady looked disdainful. "Yuan'er has a kind nature. If he meets a girl who understands him, she will cherish him. There's no need for you to humiliate him like this. He's not like some people who say sweet things but have treacherous hearts and are full of tricks behind the scenes. Be careful not to get caught in this trap."

After the old lady finished speaking, she glanced at Huang Weiming with a questioning look in her eyes.

Huang Weiming looked at each other and quickly lowered his head.

The Prime Minister was furious. He glared at Huang Jiuyuan and said to the old lady, "Mother, I'll trouble you to discipline this rebellious son. It seems... I have no say in the matter anyway."

He pulled Huang Weiming and said, "Let's go."

Huang Weiming supported him and left together. When he left, he looked unhappy with his face and his mouth corners slightly turned down.

After the two men left, the old lady of the Xiangfu Mansion began to touch Huang Jiuyuan's face with heartache, "Yuan'er, how badly did your father hit you? Grandma is heartbroken seeing this. Hurry to Grandma's room, I will use good ointment to apply medicine on you, your face can't be bruised."

Huang Jiuyuan put away his stubbornness. Hearing his grandmother's concern, his heart softened a little. "Grandma, I'm sorry to have worried you."

"What are you talking about? Blame it on grandma. If this happens again next time, I'll definitely find someone to inform grandma in advance."

She said to Huang Xie'er, "Hurry and take your brother to my room."

Huang Xie'er supported Huang Jiuyuan as they walked. She felt distressed looking at her brother. Ever since their mother passed away, they had been dependent on each other. However, her brother was prone to mischief, which gave her a headache. She thought that perhaps her brother had done something to anger their father again. She said, "Jiuyuan, what did you do again?"

When Huang Jiuyuan heard Huang Xier's question, he felt aggrieved. A torrent of emotion surged up his throat, and a rage swirled in his heart, unable to be exhaled for a long time.

His sister has never stood on his side since he was a child, and he has gotten used to it, but he still feels sad.

"Sister, why? Why do you always ask me what I did? Can't it be that someone else did something wrong? If it's bad, then I must be the one who did it?"
