Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 459: Zhou Ying Shuang’s Difficult Birth

“What, you want to have your servant girl married to him? Starting from three years ago, An Yi for the most part no longer took up missions, so now it’s just thoroughly switching to a public identity.” Li Hong Yuan was quite straightforward. In any case, he had plenty of people under him. Even if a shadow guard, missing an extremely capable An Yi also wasn’t that big of a deal. His wife just wanted a person, that’s all, can he even not give? There was already An Jiu, this precedent, so even if his wife’s servant girls all chose their husbands from the shadow guards, it all wasn’t a problem.

Jing Wan couldn’t help but laugh, “Actually, it’s not like this. It’s just An Yi himself developing feelings, that’s all. Because of his identity, he has silently restrained himself, not expressing it that much, but when facing the person he likes, he would still expose himself a little.”

Li Hong Yuan slightly lifted his brow, clearly a bit surprised. The shadow guards have gone through special training. Their greatest trait was their strong capability, loyalty, and dull emotions. Of course, although indifferent and cold, it didn’t mean that they didn’t have emotions, so suddenly producing certain thoughts was also something that couldn’t be more normal. “The person he fancies also fancies him?”

His wife was very good to the servant girls serving by her side. If it was merely just his subordinate developing feelings, his wife probably won’t mention this with him. That’s why, the people by his side wanting to curry favor with her wasn’t without reason.

“Oh, it’s Bai Shao. Bai Shao is steady and diligent, and probably because of Hei Mei, on her own personal matters, she is relatively reserved. I originally thought that she would probably ‘awaken’ the latest, or perhaps need me to select a candidate for her in the end.”

(T/N: I believe the only proper interaction shown between Bai Shao and An Yi was in chapter 180.)

“It’s best for them to take care of on their own.” Li Hong Yuan’s tone was a bit cold.

Jing Wan naturally understood his meaning. If they were to let her worry over their matters, this man will start being petty again, and perhaps will further disdain those first rank servant girls that were already scared of him to begin with. In his heart, probably only when she has all her energy placed on him at all times will he be satisfied. Dividing a tiny bit of attention out, he will all become upset.

Jing Wan was vaguely aware that his previous first rank personal servant girls seemingly had looked for a man on their own, first having themselves sent out, and afterwards got married. Under the current societal background, an ordinary girl finding a man on her own, that was being lowly and not knowing shame, and losing one’s chastity before marriage was further intolerable. If known by others, don’t know how much gossip and slander they will need to endure. If lacking the mental fortitude, then getting driven to suicide was all possible. It was very difficult for Jing Wan to imagine how wronged the four of them were at the time.

That’s why, being the living Enma’s servant girl, in a certain sense, was definitely the most ‘miserable’ among all the high official and noble families. That’s why, after they married, Jing Wan didn’t specifically arrange servant girls for him. In reality, the servant girls by Li Hong Yuan’s side, majority of the times, just took care of some trivial matters. Now that there was Jing Wan’s people, there naturally was no need to separately arrange.

It was also good that Shi, Ci, Ge, and Fu in the past didn’t appear before people much, and outsiders were accustomed to not seeing them, thus didn’t notice that Li Hong Yuan actually didn’t touch his servant girls, else Jing Wan would probably get condemned again.

“What about the others? All decided on?” Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly asked.

“More or less, I already let mama go take care of this matter. The process of the three documents and six rites, the ones that need to go through still need to go through.”

“For the household slaves in the manor, it doesn’t matter, but my guards are all of the commoner class, and the shadow guards simply don’t have an identity.” Li Hong Yuan reminded. Commoners and slaves cannot marry. If choosing them, still need to consider the problem of their household register.

This kind of thing still need for him to say? Even if she didn’t notice, didn’t she still have mama and them? Jing Wan casted Li Hong Yuan a glance. Just how much did he dislike those beautiful girls by her side?

“After marrying, they will still be serving by my side, although it won’t be like in the past constantly at the side. My wet nurse has already trained the ones that will take their place too. Right now, they’re already following by their side studying.” Jing Wan couldn’t help but mention.

Li Hong Yuan swept her a glance, naturally understanding her meaning, “The replacements, can they have that deep of a friendship with you like those that grew up with you? And in the future, with this husband present, don’t count on it.”

Forever don’t count on them being the same as the ones right now.

Jing Wan nearly vomited blood. She really couldn’t understand, exactly how did a qinwang under a feudalistic society develop this kind of ‘wife clinging’ personality? If it was in Cang Jin, where the wife was strong, the husband weak, then it was still possible, but this one was someone that can put to death a pile of people in seconds, aggressive and unyielding to no end. This completely didn’t match his character description, exactly how was this brought about?

Although this kind of trait made one headache, it was still a sweet worry.

En, Jing Wan was merely just curious, no need to dig up the roots and get to the bottom of it.

Since it was holding a large celebration for Jing Wan’s birthday, he naturally long passed down the order. As the birthday star, there was no reason to let her personally arrange this matter. However, the people of Jin Qinwang Manor were all capable in handling matters. New chapters are published on Noᴠel Fɪre.net

At present, Jing Wan’s prestige in the manor has long been established. Even without Li Hong Yuan, they will still put forward a hundred twenty percent, striving for perfection. Furthermore, wangye has personally expressed, if handled well, there will be rewards after the fact, but if there’s a slip-up anywhere, they will definitely suffer the consequences.

With Gong mama in charge of the overall affairs, controlling the standard, Jing Wan continued ‘growing mold in idleness’, just continuing to draw, look after plants and flowers, and the rest of the time, being intimate with Li Hong Yuan. These days were leisure to the point of making others want to beat them.

Jin Qinwang Manor’s invitations were also sent out early. As long as it wasn’t having problems in the head, presumably all will have the second of the second lunar month, that day, left open. If it’s choosing to arrange matters on that day, then all will perceptively shift ahead of time or postpone. After all, Jin Qinwang’s face, one can’t not give, unless completely not reaching that stratum.

The various manor’s wangfei would all celebrate their birthday, so receiving an invitation at this time also wasn’t surprising. They just need to have the gifts prepared, and don’t need to do anything else.

The super realistic painting that Jing Wan painted for Li Hong Yuan was also finally finished. Perhaps because she’d really put in too much energy into it, in the end, it for the most part reached the result Jing Wan wanted. Although it still wasn’t able to reach the level of photographs, it was already limitlessly close. Just, this kind of painting, if using paper to mount, seemingly would be a bit out of sorts?

While Jing Wan was contemplating on what kind of material to use for the frame, someone from outside came looking. Zhou Ying Shuang had gone into labor, but it was a difficult birth. From the looks of it, afraid it won’t be good. Zhou Ying Shuang had married the Head of the Imperial Academy family’s young master. The Head of the Imperial Academy belonged to the relatively ‘clean and honorable’ type. Moreover, in Qi Yuan, their rank wasn’t all that high, so to want to invite an imperial physician wasn’t that easy. Furthermore, right now, it was a matter of life and death, unable to be delayed. Thus, having no other choice, they sought out Jing Wan.

Jing Wan instantly became anxious too, and without a second word, directly ordered Mu An to go to the Imperial Physicians Court to invite the best gynecologist, and children’s doctor, and immediately rush to the Head of the Imperial Academy’s home, not allow to delay in the slightest.

Towards the friends Jing Wan made before marrying, Mu An naturally knew in detail. Not daring to slight, he moved as if he was going to drag them to the qinwang manor. Just, seemingly as if the heavens were specifically going against Zhou Ying Shuang, the two gynecologists had both entered the palace. The word was that Le Cheng Emperor’s harem seemingly had good news again.

Mu An really didn’t know what kind of expression to use. Other places he all can go to steal the person, but only the imperial palace he didn’t dare to go. Moreover, Le Cheng Emperor, at this age, still being able to have a consort get pregnant was practically just the ‘vitality of a dragon, the might of a tiger’, proof that he was old but vigorous, don’t know how happy he was right now. To go steal the person at this time, wasn’t that looking for death?

Having no other choice, Mu An hurriedly returned to Jin Qinwang Manor.

Jing Wan who was already distressed to begin with, after learning the situation, entirely became gloomy.

Li Hong Yuan lifted his brow, pacifying the distressed Jing Wan, “Let Gong Jiu go first. At least, first ensure that there won’t be any mishaps. I’ll take a trip to the palace.” Even if there’s an issue in the palace, Li Hong Yuan can still take away an imperial physician.

Jing Wan blanked. Reasonably speaking, her husband definitely won’t get involved in this kind of thing, yet now…………..In the end, it was still for her sake. Regardless of how unhappy he feels inside on normal days because of her paying attention to others, when there’s really a problem, he nevertheless was still able to a hundred percent support her and help her. Having such a husband, what else can one ask for? “Ah Yuan, thank you.”

Li Hong Yuan lightly smiled, “This husband has accepted. Later, remember to prepare a present. Just saying thanks is far from enough.” He lightly pinched Jing Wan’s cheeks, the implication couldn’t be more obvious.

“Alright, whatever Ah Yuan wants, I’ll give.”

Li Hong Yuan’s expression instantly turned cold again, “Normally, don’t see you being this generous.”

“If you want to argue, wait until later, quickly enter the palace.”
