Transmigrating into a Demon Spirit to Blow up the Entire World Chapter 131.1

But the injuries on those two servants were quite serious, which serves as an ironclad evidence, besides, it’s difficult to guarantee that Yuwen Yin’s clothes wasn’t a diversionary tactic. In this case, although beating of servants wasn’t anything of a big deal, but deceiving the elders and looking down on the emperor was a serious cri. With this in mind, the Empress Dowager’s deanor suddenly turned majestic and solemn. She slamd the teacup she held onto the table with a bang, then imdiately asked whether Yuwen Yin was aware of his mistake.

But Yuwen Yin unexpectedly looked at her with reddened eyes, with an obvious and genuine feeling of admiration in those eyes. The shape of his eyes and brows also bore an unspeakable resemblance to the early years of the late Emperor. That couldn’t help but make the Empress Dowager be slightly emotional when observing this, and made her inexplicably desist from saying the accusatory words she initially thought of.

But her expression remained tranquil without the slightest ripple, without exposing the slightest bit of her feeling. Xu momo, who stood beside her, was comparable to a roundworm* in the Empress Dowager’s belly, and since she also had quite the seniority, that even Qi Wangye** would also have to treat her with a bit of respect. So, she actively asked in behalf of the Empress Dowager: “Is there sothing wrong, Ershizi?”

Yuwen Yin abruptly knelt down and knocked his head on the floor, “This grandson is at fault, beseeching Imperial grandmother for punishnt.”

Even when kneeling on the ground, his back still remained as straight as before. He then spoke seriously with a slightly hoarse voice distinctive to a young man: “The first fault is being unfilial. This grandson is able to grow well until now is all thanks to the grace of Imperial grandmother. Yet, not only have I failed to accompany you around to show filial piety, but had also been unable to co forward and pay respect in ti before, and had even made Imperial grandmother worry instead. Imperial grandmother is so benevolent, just like a living Bodhisattva, for not taking offense of this grandson. Nonetheless, this grandson is aware of his fault and beseeches Imperial grandmother for punishnt.”

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager’s heart had been slightly shaken once more, –She didn’t expect that this other grandson, who was labeled as narrow-minded, vicious and incompetent by others would be able to speak out such appropriate words. Had soone else spoke of this kind of words in normal tis, the Empress Dowager’s impression on Yuwen Yin would have completely fallen, but she felt a little more at ease because of it’s unexpectedness at this ti. A child who can speak of filial piety over and over shouldn’t be able to do anything bad. That being the case, not only was Yuwen Ying able to block Qi Wangye, who wanted to straightforwardly interrupt and Qi Wangfei*, who tried to interrupt, but he had also cald the Empress Dowager and made her willing to carefully listen to his words.

“The second fault is greediness.” Yuwen Yin knocked his head again, and continued to say word for word: “Grandson knows that the food eaten and clothes worn in the mansion are all from the works of the ancestors, and to always be thankful as well as be humble as a mber of the mansion, and shouldn’t think of reaping benefits from it. What’s more, when Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a great man, it will always frustrate his spirit and will first. But this grandson who’s borne with great blessing doesn’t know the blessings, and always dreams of eating a full al with at and vegetables like the two servants around , and extravagantly hopes to be able to have a thick quilt and winter clothes due to the fear of the cold. So beseeching Imperial grandmother for the punishnt for being greedy and insatiable.”

This paragraph was in fact very problematic. –Regardless of all things, Yuwen Yin is still a Wangye’s son, but for him to actually be unable to eat a full al, and not have cotton-padded clothes to pass through winter, wouldn’t everyone laugh at them once this matter gets passed out? The Empress Dowager’s complexion suddenly beca a hundred tis more grim than when she heard of Yuwen Yin beating the servants. But the totally unaware Yuwen Yin knocked his head on the ground again, and continued to confess his faults.

“The third fault is being ill-fated. This grandson will catch a cold after rely having washed a few buckets of clothes with cold water, and is really useless. But is still capable of chopping firewood, sweeping the floor, carrying water and doing manual work even when ill, although not as much work as other days. Furthermore, this grandson’s illness always happens to chance upon the tis when Imperial grandmother visits Wangye’s mansion, this must certainly be due to being ill-fated and borne with a weak Chi energy. Beseeching Imperial grandmother for punishnt.”

This paragraph actually brought things a notch higher, and can be considered as alarming, — Chopping firewood, sweeping the floor and other such things were all the responsibilities of servants, and even those with the lowest status will do. But for Yuwen Yin to be able to speak of this so calmly as a master, clearly shows that he already regards these heavy manual work as a part of his daily life. What’s more, his age is at the stage when his self-esteem is the strongest. If he really isn’t used to doing heavy manual work, then there’s no way he’d be able to frankly speak of this kind of things in the presence of so many people. Furthermore, that phrase of ‘illness always happens to chance upon the tis when Imperial grandmother visited Wangye’s mansion’. –How could there be so many coincidences in this world?

The more such coincidence happens, the more suspicious it would beco, especially since she has seen too many filthy things deep in the palace through Xu momo. So these words already contained a different aning when falling into her ears.

Yuwen Yin’s three faults and three knocks of his head, were asking for punishnt on the surface, but were in fact shocking revelations, that even the Empress Dowager went still for a long ti after hearing this. But he still continued to say: “The fourth fault is dereliction of duty. Dimu* assigned two servants to accompany this grandson. But this grandson failed to properly take care of them, and didn’t have silver coins to cover their debts for playing cards and drinking. Last night, when they fought each other due to intoxication, this grandson didn’t dare to dissuade them for fear of being scolded. So beseeching Imperial grandmother for punishnt for being weak and incompetent.”

The master, in turn, serves the servants and was even fearful of being scolded by his servants. It’s estimated that such a matter cannot be found in the entire Dayu Dynasty for the second ti. Now, Yuwen Yin was the only person left with a calm expression in the hall, even Qi Wangfei’s hands were slightly shaking.

–Yuwen Yin wasn’t lying in bed due to the poison as anticipated, which had already thrown her in confusion. But even more importantly, she never imagined that this little bastard wouldn’t even leave a bit of leeway. He didn’t speak of evidences, disregarded logic as well as whatever logic, and completely didn’t play the cards by routine, but directly tore the face away completely without hesitation.

Yuwen Yin didn’t leave himself a way out.

Because he knows too well, that in order to deal with such crafty and evil people that has many and various thods, he had to take a desperate attitude and directly push the person to a dead end.
