"Speak, what is the matter?" The Emperor glanced coldly at the two of them and asked.
Pei Huaian bowed and said, "Father, your son is guilty."
"What crime have you committed?" The Emperor's gaze measured the two unceasingly, finally resting on that chubby child.
"To report to Father, at the palace banquet a few years ago, someone drugged your son, and by chance, I encountered Shao He. She is the one who… had relations with your son, and she also bore your son a child."
"What did you say!" The Emperor's pupils suddenly widened, scarcely able to believe his words.
"And today, your son also came to seek Father's forgiveness for this matter. Everything is your son's fault, and I am willing to accept whatever punishment Father deems fit!"
The Emperor's expression changed as he said sternly, "Do you know the consequences of deceiving your sovereign?"
"Your son is aware."
"Knowing that, you still dared to speak!" the Emperor said with fury.
