Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 269: Surrender?

Regardless of what’s said, Li Hong Yuan won’t go question what mood Noble Consort Su is in anyways. He although is a filial son, but at the same time, he was still a thoughtless man, and didn’t have that meticulous and keen inclination. What a woman was thinking, how would he know? To be guessing this woman’s thoughts all day, if found out by his old man, then he’d really get beaten.

Then, wasn’t it just fine to not let his old man know? Heheh, Li Hong Yuan expressed, if he really did this, then he’ll certainly let his old man know.

As for Jing Wan, that was his wife, can others compare with her? As clearly seen, when facing Noble Consort Su, Li Hong Yuan’s mental state was forever the most crude.

Perhaps having long become used to it, believing her son was just this kind of person, Noble Consort Su didn’t think too much, “How come you came back this quickly?”

“Imperial father is busy with governmental affairs and doesn’t have the energy to bother with this son. This son rather wanted to go to the imperial gardens for a stroll, but when time comes, afraid one will encounter one or two that want to recommend themselves as a pillow again, and the one to suffer will still be this son. Such sinful place, it’s still best to set foot in less.” Li Hong Yuan indifferently said.

Noble Consort Su was rather speechless. Speaking of this matter, exactly whose fault was it? Although in the end……………Moreover, how long as it been already, for a grown man to bear grudges like this, was it really good? “That was just an accident, so how can there still be a second time? Yuan’er, you should settle down a little.”

(T/N: Referring to the incident prior to the White Dragon Temple incident.)

“Is this son still not peaceful enough? Since consort mother feels this way, then this son will just directly move to the estate to live.”

“Yuan’er, saying this kind of thing, how is it not hurting consort mother’s heart?” Noble Consort Su carried three part dejectedness in her words.

Li Hong Yuan frowned, seemingly now knowing which sensitive nerve he’d hit upon with Noble Consort Su, “If it’s this son saying something wrong somewhere, consort mother should just directly point out.”

Noble Consort Su was unable to respond. This son of hers perhaps really didn’t have excessive thoughts. Speaking of which, this son has always been the type to say whatever was on his mind, doing whatever he pleases, never hiding of concealing, and further not knowing what enduring in silence means, let alone having propriety. Perhaps it’s not that he didn’t know, just it was a habit formed over a long period of time, used to having others revolve around him. And for him to consider for others, that was further an enormous joke. Despite clearly knowing this, she still acted serious with him, simply just asking for suffering.

“It’s not that Yuan’er is wrong anywhere, consort mother just misunderstood. As you’ve said, your imperial father has indeed been busy lately. What kind of attitude he has towards you, you should be the most clear. If you really were to live on the estate for long periods of time, he will be heartbroken. That’s why, consort mother was just…………..”

“Consort mother, this son knows.”

Noble Consort Su rather happily nodded.

Jing Wan, on one hand, because of a certain someone deliberately acting stupid, was terribly strained from restraining her laugh, and on the other hand, towards Noble Consort Su’s attitude towards Li Hong Yuan, she actually didn’t know what she should say. Is Noble Consort Su really having this son treated as an adult? Or perhaps can only say, a certain someone was truly too successful at ‘pretending to be obedient’, giving many people a deep-rooted impression?

Shortly after, they casually chatted a few more words. Li Hong Yuan told Noble Consort Su, he sent some things into the palace, letting Noble Consort Su deal with as she sees fit, and Noble Consort Su directly just praised, ‘good son, filial child’.

Lastly, Li Hong Yuan regretfully expressed, originally wanting to accompany consort mother for a meal, but with sister-in-law present, he’ll just not butt in.

And without waiting for Noble Consort Su to say anything, he just turned and told Jing Wan that he hasn’t eaten that in a long time, and after going back, let her remember to tell someone to prepare.

When turning his head back again, seeing Noble Consort Su wanting to say something but hesitating, “Is something else the matter consort mother?”

Noble Consort Su choked again. If it was just Rui Wangfei alone, she was still able to have the person sent away, but with two little ones present, she just wasn’t able to do that. Her son avoiding suspicion, that was by all rights, and such ‘awareness of the bigger picture’, can she even say no? She rather can have Jing Wan kept behind, but as a good consort mother, how can she have the person kept behind when her son needs his wife? However, with Jing Wan pretending to be naive and acting absentmindedly to brush her off, keeping her behind would just be giving oneself anger to suffer. Waving her hand, “Nothing, you all be careful on your way back.”

“Yes, this son will take one’s leave first.”

“This daughter-in-law bids farewell.”

Jing Wan and Li Hong Yuan left the imperial palace. At the palace gates, they ran into the Great Commander of the Imperial Guards, Yu Zhong Qing. Jing Wan at first didn’t have any thoughts. As the boss of the imperial palace’s guards, even if he appeared in the outer surroundings of the various palaces of the inner palace, it wasn’t all that strange. Li Hong Yuan’s gaze however was a bit profound. Yu Zhong Qing’s appearance was something within his expectations.

When Yu Zhong Qing saw them, he respectfully bowed to greet them, and immediately after, glanced at Li Hong Yuan, seemingly having something to say, but perhaps due to the setting, he didn’t open his mouth.

Li Hong Yuan didn’t stop, reaching out to hold Jing Wan’s hand, and got on the horse carriage.

Li Hong Yuan’s sudden movement, Jing Wan was a bit baffled by, but realizing something, she casted a glance at Yu Zhong Qing, and didn’t struggle free. However, the crowd of guards guarding the gates immediately all lowered their heads.

As for Yu Zhong Qing, he stared at the two’s figure from behind, his gaze flickering, and the shadow in his eyes subsequently scattering a little, even feeling a bit more relaxed.

In the carriage, Jing Wan finally couldn’t help but open her mouth, “Ah Yuan, is this really no problem?”

“What problem is there? Even if she senses something, so what? She won’t have a fall out with me. Right now, she still needs me to continue helping her consolidate her position. For me, with or without her, it already doesn’t matter. And if it’s her that’s in the ‘wrong’ first, then it’s even better. That way, I don’t have to continue dealing with her.”

Alright, you have the right to be willful, whatever you say, “Sir Yu is looking for you for something?”

Li Hong Yuan’s complexion instantly just darkened, “Wan Wan watched rather attentively.”

Jing Wan was somewhat between laughter and tears, “Hey, enough already. The other party although didn’t display it that obviously, but on top of your action, it’s just worth pondering over, alright. Last year on the way to the imperial summer residence, the incident that happened midway, this Sir Yu saw very clearly. Although not completely knowledgable towards you, it’s still fifty percent, so looking for you at this time, it’s preparing to……….” surrender?

Li Hong Yuan’s complexion however didn’t improve much, but there weren’t signs of him continuing to go crazy either. “Who knows what he wants to do, just wait until he comes looking.”

“Then, Ah Yuan’s action just now was reminding him………”

“It was nothing at all.” Li Hong Yuan neither lightly nor heavily interrupted her, unblinkingly looking to Jing Wan, the meaning couldn’t be more obvious.

“Yes, yes, yes, it’s whatever Ah Yuan says it is.” Jing Wan smilingly replied. Ah this temper, really don’t know what to say about him.

Li Hong Yuan’s complexion darkened again. Follow current s on ɴovelFɪre.net

Jing Wan hurriedly leaned forward, embracing his neck and sealing him with a kiss.

Towards the offered up benefit, Li Hong Yuan naturally won’t miss out. For the people outside the horse carriage, because of having too sharp of a hearing, it was practically an indescribable torment. Especially those that didn’t have a wife, on normal days, can’t even go to the brothels. And for the shadow guards, further don’t even think about it. How can it just be summed up as misery?

Four days later, Jing Wan took a trip to the Luo Manor with the glorified excuse of being concerned with her tang older brother’s marriage. In reality, among the imperial family, to be able to be like Jing Wan, frequently returning to the maiden home, there really were none. However, just as Li Hong Yuan said that day on their wedding, on this matter, what he said was just the rules.

As a daughter-in-law of the imperial family, Jing Wan actually should have awareness in this regard, just unfortunately, on this aspect, she just resolutely implemented ‘obeying the husband after marrying’.

On the way back to the qinwang manor, a few year old little girl suddenly ran out chasing a little kitten. If not for Jing Wan’s horse carriage not moving that quickly, perhaps would have ran into her.

The bodyguards reached out to block, yet wasn’t able to block the agile kitten. During the chase, the little kitten unexpectedly jumped onto Jing Wan’s carriage.

Probably no one expected that it would be like this. Never mind the group of bodyguards, even the servant girls all couldn’t help but have a look of panic. What if by chance this little brute injures the wangfei? Their lives all wouldn’t be enough to compensate. “Wangfei, wangfei, are you alright?” As they anxiously asked, Gong mama swiftly lifted open the curtain.

“Calm down, I’m fine.” Jing Wan met with Gong mama’s eyes, and Gong mama who was familiar with her, in just one glance, just knew, there were other matters mixed in.

The little kitten’s feral nature still existed, but still just a little kitten after all, its strength limited. Jing Wan quickly reached out pulling over the silk cloth spread over the table, covering the little kitten, then pinching its nape and picking it up. It was also just in this limited space was she able to catch it this smoothly. If placed outside, Jing Wan really didn’t have much confidence.

Seeing Jing Wan calm and indifferent, the bodyguards and servant girls all relaxed a breath. The little kitten’s owner, that little girl still hoped to be able to have the little kitten asked back, but a married woman that closely followed over behind her, her complexion changed greatly, hurriedly pulling the little girl to kneel down and beg for forgiveness, her entire body trembling. It was clear, she really was quite terrified.

And the people watching in the surrounding also increased more and more. Those that saw the entire process and recognized that was Jin Qinwang Manor’s horse carriage, not one wasn’t fiercely wiping a handful of cold sweat.

However, once they learned that the person inside was Jin Wangfei and not Jin Qinwang, quite a few actually inwardly cried out ‘how fortunate’.
