Chapter 543.1: Too Sweet, Something Wrong
Individual time flowed together.
It was another year’s mid-autumn. Every year all can be spent in a new way, but it also can be said that every year all didn’t have anything new.
Unknown as to whether or not it was because Le Cheng Emperor was getting old, compared to inviting the officials to the palace for a banquet, Le Cheng Emperor seemingly further liked the warmth of ‘family’. Thus, he continued on with the custom of the past two three years, giving a long holiday. Aside from the people that must hold their respective posts, the rest all returned to their respective homes, looking for their respective family.
Speaking of which, after Jing Wan entered the capital, the first mid-autumn was spent in the Luo Manor, spending very comfortably, and also very normal. The second year’s mid-autumn was just spent in Jiangnan. Since it was just her and her husband, they also just let the people below do as they pleased. Last year, they were actually in the capital, but the two of them had spent it cooped up in the estate. Towards the matters inside the capital, they similarly ignored.
This year, they needed to enter the palace to celebrate the mid-autumn festival.
Speaking of which, although it was also a family banquet, but it ultimately was still a palace banquet. Compared to normal family banquets, it was still very different.
However, the palace, compared to the outside, naturally still had places that were a level higher. Everything else aside, apart from the colored lanterns made by the Internal Affairs Department, each palace had also exhausted their means, the variety exceeding a hundred. After all, if taking first place, there was a reward. Actually, bestowments were still secondary. The most important was still being able to attract Le Cheng Emperor’s attention. Regardless whether it was the imperial consorts, or those little princes and princesses, towards this bit, they were all deeply committed. The most update n0vels are published on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet
The imperial consorts getting noticed, what they will obtain might just be imperial favor, and the princes and princesses getting noticed, what they will obtain might just be status.
Jing Wan soundlessly sighed. It really was no matter where, there was always competition. In reality, because she had an extra life’s memories, even if knowing under a feudalistic dynasty, a person’s preferences can just determine many people’s position, when really experiencing for herself, it still felt very unbelievable. This bit, although reflected the most obviously on the emperor, but in upper class large families, and even ordinary families, this bit actually all existed. As long as one can obtain the head of the family’s liking, then even if little cat or dog, all can live even more comfortably than a living person.
However, how others competed all didn’t matter. She had a large backing, just needing to sit on the wall and spectate, and when necessary, secretly watching the play was enough. And the product of those people competing for favor in every possible way, didn’t it just happened to convenience others? The myriad of colored lanterns, a great feast for the eyes. It truly verified that line, ‘there was only what you can’t think of, but not what other’s can’t achieve’.
Compared to her past life, certain arts and crafts were a bit weaker, unable to be achieved, but in Jing Wan’s eyes, there were many that nevertheless further surpassed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs such, after the lanterns went up everywhere, Jing Wan just leisurely strolled around together with Li Hong Yuan.
Perhaps because there was a little bun in her stomach, towards some of the lanterns drawn with chubby children, she just particularly favored. Sometimes when looking, she would use her fingers to fiddle with, even able to unconsciously began smiling.
In the onlookers’ eyes, solely looking at Jing Wan, that was definitely full of tender feelings, feeling even the inside was all warm, but the dark face demon behind Jin Wangfei truly was killing the scenery too much. That ‘do not approach’ look made people when still a few feet away just unconsciously take a turn, fleeing as far away as possible.
Jin Qinwang deeply loving Jin Wangfei, this can be said to already be a common knowledge known by all. However, Jin Qinwang’s behavior sometimes seemingly was also very contradictory, just like for instance, right now.
Based on common sense, with Jin Wangfei being this happy, shouldn’t Jin Qinwang also be happy along with? How come it was like he was quite displeased, just like as if Jin Wangfei had given him a green hat to wear? Alright, this possibility didn’t exist. Setting aside Jin Qinwang practically being inseparable from Jin Wangfei, Jin Wangfei having an affair in Jin Qinwang Manor, that was really the greatest joke under the sun. No matter how powerless the living Enma was, would he not be able to control his own manor?
That’s why, the living Enma’s thoughts were different from the mass, strange and unfathomable, unable to guess. It was best to not blindly make guesses. Guessing back and forth, it would only make you go in a circle, becoming a tangled mess.
TN: All
Jing Wan actually was able to sense a certain someone’s displeasure, but aside from the forbidden area that absolutely can’t be touched, Jing Wan majority of the times was all very fearless. This piece of flesh in her stomach, he didn’t like, but she right now was tightly linked together with this piece of flesh. That’s why, even if she were to deliberately be willful, he would also be helpless, and in the end, can only compromise.
Seeing Jing Wan grinningly ‘causing mischief’, Li Hong Yuan sure enough couldn’t keep his dark expression for long.
Shortly after, Li Hong Yuan also just entirely indulged Jing Wan, letting her do as she pleased.
Even though one was smilingly warmly, and one was rarely smiling, the atmosphere between the two of them was nevertheless exceptionally harmonious, completely not having any room for a third person to insert a foot. The servants following them all withdrew to a place ten feet away.
This kind of atmosphere made don’t know how many people jealous.
Although from time to time, they would always have the topic of Jin Wangfei being ‘easily jealous’ brought out to cause a wave, and although many people all harbored malice, waiting for Jin Wangfei to lose favor, but in reality, the former didn’t have the slightest influence towards her, and the latter……….Didn’t one see that she was already pregnant for two three months, yet that complexion was still the same as before, even making one feel that she seemingly became even prettier.
Nine times out of ten, Jin Qinwang still didn’t have others by his side, else even if a tongfang, Jin Wangfei’s situation still wouldn’t be like this. Men having other women by their side, as the wife, even if able to see clearly and openly, it was all impossible to completely not be influenced. Especially during pregnancy, the person was prone to being weak, easily having chaotic thoughts.
A truly good situation versus forcibly pretending, it was absolutely two completely different cases.
Once, twice, three times, and even four times, all thinking, ‘let’s see how long she can be arrogant for’, but to this point in time now, they still weren’t able to see her joke. Jing Wan didn’t have the slightest signs of losing favor, causing these people to lose interest first.
It was better to just take care of oneself. To mind others that much, in the end, aside from a stomach full of anger, it was still just a stomach full of anger, the kind that had nowhere to discharge. That’s why, if the eyes don’t see, the heart won’t be bothered. When meeting, it was just consciously avoiding.
The imperial palace was that big, and many places all had colored lanterns. To want to look at one by one, for the most part, it wasn’t too possible to accomplish within a short period of time. After looking at about just a tenth of them, Jing Wan just lost interest. Moreover, her amount of exercise today was already enough. In the first three months, it was better to take it easy.
It was true that the colored lanterns in the imperial palace had many variety, but it ultimately lacked human warmth, both not having the bustling excitement of the streets, and also not having the warmth of normal households.
The evening banquet was similarly set in the imperial gardens. Li Hong Yuan took Jing Wan and found a relatively quiet place. Because it wasn’t in the way, there easily won’t be people coming over. In addition to the sides all having people standing guard, he thus didn’t have any misgivings, having Jing Wan taken into his arms.
Jing Wan also quietly leaned in his embrace, watching the people coming and going nearby. The beautifully dressed imperial consorts, the exquisite and elegant imperial sons and daughters, the dignified and virtuous wangfeis of the various manors, and also the elegant and graceful wangyes, no matter how one looked, it was just so——fake! Even using the toe to think, one would know, these people were all carrying a fake mask, feigning civility with others.
Of course, Jing Wan was also clear, for various situations, it may not necessarily just come from the heart, the so called having no other choice. For her, because she had a safe harbor, this man by her side blocking all the wind and rain for her, that’s why she was able to hold her own corner. Otherwise, she perhaps will also become one among them. That’s why, she also didn’t have any right to evaluate others.
After watching for a while, Jing Wan lightly yawned. After becoming pregnant, there were still some symptoms, for instance, compared to the past, she was somewhat fond of sleeping.
“Why don’t you rest for a while, it’s most likely still early for the evening banquet.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi Hong Yuan was already used to accompanying her. That’s why, Jing Wan’s situation, he was always able to detect first thing.
Jing Wan didn’t make a sound, seemingly as if in this extremely short amount of time, she already fell asleep.
And afterwards, without waiting for Li Hong Yuan to open his mouth, Gong mama already sent over a large cloak.
In this kind of weather, even though it was still somewhat hot in the daytime, the breeze at night already was bit chilly.
Jing Wan got woken by a loud clamor, drowsily rubbing her eyes, “What happened?”
“Two little girls got into a fight, that’s all, no need to bother. Let’s go somewhere else and continue sleeping for a while?”
“No need, actually not very sleepy.” Jing Wan sobered up while leaning against him, before finally sitting upright.
Afterwards, Jing Wan discovered, the so called little girls fighting, seemingly were two little princesses. However, it was sort of obvious. Tonight was the emperor’s family banquet. To dare fight here, it absolutely won’t be the little palace maids. Aside from the little princesses, it was just the various manors little junzhus.
“Did something happen? Let’s also go have a look.”
Li Hong Yuan actually noticed, Jing Wan’s curiosity lately was also a bit high. However, he also didn’t stop her. With him protecting, even if a crowded place, others still need to move aside for him, so there was no need to worry about her getting bumped into.
When they arrived, the two little princesses were still loudly crying. However, Jing Wan’s eyes flashed with confusion. This seemingly wasn’t just two people’s matter. There were clearly four involved parties.
Le Cheng Emperor had more sons than daughters. Noble Consort Su’s Princess Min Xiang was ranked fifth, having a slightly big age gap with the sixth princess. The sixth princess was still less than fourteen, and the seventh princess was just half a year younger than her. This while, these two were in a mess, the clothes and hair disorderly, their eyes shooting flames as they glared at one another.
It was obvious, these two were the ones that actually fought.
Jing Wan stood to the side, hearing an earful, for the most part, learning the cause and effect.
Only ‘….’ could represent her mood.
