Chapter 578.2: If a Fool?
If a Fool? (2)
Li Hong Yuan’s expression was indifferent, completely not having Le Cheng Emperor taken seriously.
He Shi Hai expressed that he didn’t understand the twist and turns, continuing his report.
After Li Hong Yuan had left the White Dragon Temple, and prior to encountering Ruan Fang Fei, during this period of time, he was still in contact with the people under him, so some things although not very clear, they still gave Luo Pei Shan and them some information, letting them hold down the situation in the capital. And after completely losing contact with Li Hong Yuan, although they were a bit worried inside, they still didn’t panic. The few big shots all risked the dangers, gathering in secret. Relying on the limited information in hand and their compiled knowledge, they roughly determined Li Hong Yuan’s possible direction.
After the people searching for Li Hong Yuan left the capital, Li Su Yan and Fu Yun Ting were placed on the surface, while He Shi Hai leading the most elite troop of a thousand was the main force in searching for Li Hong Yuan. The direction was just a rough guess, so they naturally still need to divide up more. Afterwards, they discovered some markings the shadow guards left behind along the road. After figuring out the real information from the fake, he finally found the person in the last moment.
Hearing that Li Hong Yuan actually still had back-up plans, Jing Wan had a kind of ‘as expected’ feeling. This was more normal. And encountering that dire situation at the end, it probably really was an accident. However, it was precisely that accident that nearly made them meet with the unexpected, really throwing their life in.
That’s why, even if getting trapped in the mountain cavity, it actually wasn’t the least bit tense. Even if they fail in breaking out, in the end, it will also be fine. This was probably why he didn’t let a portion of the shadow guards give their all in breaking out in the beginning. After all, if they push the other side too hard, the people of Zhang’s reaction will just be even bigger. This would instead be even more troublesome.
“Wangye, the people under you, out of the ten information left behind, at most only two are real. Say, if by chance this subject didn’t discover, wouldn’t that be…..” Speaking to here, He Shi Hai perceptively shut his mouth.
Li Hong Yuan lightly glanced at him, “If you all had gotten it wrong, then you all probably wouldn’t have been able to survive to today, all would’ve died from stupidity.”
He Shi Hai choked. However, the little tyrant expressed that he was open-minded, not going to argue with his idol, “Wangye, saying it like this isn’t right. If really that simple, then wouldn’t the others also be able to find the correct direction easily. You have to know, the people searching for you in the dark isn’t just one group.” But it was just them that found the correct answer, so it can be seen that it was still very difficult. Thus, he was also very smart. He Shi Hai was immensely pleased with himself.
What He Shi Hai was like in Li Hong Yuan’s past life, Jing Wan had also heard about a little. Was this really that taciturn killing god that made people fear from hearing his name? When meeting for the first time, she thought he was just a little tyrant, yet turns out, he was inherently just a simpleminded idiot, making one want to facepalm, not daring to look directly at him.
——Don’t be stupid, if not for a certain someone leaving behind people that had an understanding towards these signs, it would be strange for you to be able to find the right answer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSure enough, when a person didn’t have a major turn in their life, even a demon king would penetrate with naivety.
Jing Wan glanced at her own husband’s complexion, very much wanting to say to He Shi Hai, quickly put away that expression on your face, else if a certain someone were to regret saving your whole family, bringing about a future general that he isn’t that satisfied with, he perhaps will just create for you another tragedy, bringing back that original killing god.
Jing Wan ultimately didn’t say anything, silently picking up the cup and drinking the water, inwardly lighting a candle for He Shi Hai. Although he won’t really cause a family tragedy for him, he certainly will ruthlessly train him again. Just this appearance right now, to want to be that great commander was still far from enough.
As for the specific situation in the capital, He Shi Hai actually wasn’t particular clear. After all, someone like him, no matter how one looks at it, all wasn’t like the type that was good at using his head. Just needing him to unswerving and obediently carry out his mission was enough. However, it goes without saying, the situation certainly won’t be peaceful.
At least, from Fu Rong’s explanation, that Sir Su in the Head Minister of Rites position was actually someone from Former Wei, and the person he wants to assist is Rui Qinwang. Noble Consort Su rising again because of saving the emperor, and the poison used in that assassination being unique to Former Wei, this just made one can’t help but suspect that the whole matter was just a play devised by that Sir Su. After all, only by helping Li Hong Ming onto the throne can he obtain the greatest benefit. Additionally, he was Fu Rong’s ‘master’. The gu that Fu Rong gave to Jing Wan precisely came from his hands. As such, the one working with Southern Qi was obviously him. In this way, his understanding towards Li Hong Yuan was much more profound. He originally just carried guesses, knowing the threat Li Hong Yuan posed, so how can he allow Li Hong Yuan to live.
Reasonably speaking, he certainly will check on the status of Southern Qi’s plans on this side. However, since among the people searching for Li Hong Yuan, there was also Rui Qinwang’s people, it can be seen that this Sir Su and Southern Qi’s collaboration also wasn’t that tight, the two sides both having reservations. That’s why, Sir Su didn’t know Li Hong Yuan’s situation, not even knowing his whereabouts.
TN: All
While Li Hong Yuan, this biggest threat, was absent, to not do a bit of something, it all won’t be like that Sir Su’s character and style.
Based on the situation above, one can tell, the great play being performed in the capital right now certainly was very brilliant. That poor old heart of Le Cheng Emperor’s certainly was suffering devastation.
By the time He Shi Hai left, only Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan remained in the room.
“Ah Yuan, say, the following matters, how will it develop? Who will make a move first?” Jing Wan turned her head and asked.
“Li Hong Ming once got reduced to a commoner. The people that have continuously supported him from the beginning, there’s probably just a third of the original amount left, or even less. And during this time period, Li Hong Yi’s powers have rapidly increased. The former increasingly feels that the latter is a threat, and the latter further won’t let the former grow in power again. The former very likely will stake everything in one throw, while the latter believes that he has solely grown in power, so probably won’t be able to tolerate the person sitting on the throne continuing to sit there. Moreover, both their mothers have a sickly body, not knowing when they will just breathe their last breath. Originally both were full of ambitions, so if unable to sit onto the Emperor Dowager position and just croak, then they probably won’t be able to die in peace.”
“That’s why, Kang Qinwang and Rui Qinwang both might make a move first.”
“In any case, he’s destined to not be able to die of old age, so prior to dying, it’s just issuing an edict to pass down the throne. In the previous life, they previously acted at the same time. In this life, this prince should also help them fulfill their wish, and can even shift it ahead of time. The emperor’s birthday has already passed. The first day of the new year is a pretty good day. The court officials and titled madams all need to enter the palace, so isn’t it precisely a good opportunity.”
“Won’t this timing be a bit too tight?” Forcing the emperor to abdicate isn’t a small matter.
“Wan Wan, some things, it’s not the longer it drags out, the better and more thorough the plan. If dragged out for too long, there might just be a leak. Moreover, if a matter is continuously delayed, then one might just lose other important things. In the past life, I was also waiting for the right time, hoping to have a better grasp, but in the end, what awaited me was just your last moments. After having you brought back to the capital, I directly washed the imperial palace in blood. At that time, actually, the time and conditions all weren’t good.” Li Hong Yuan lowered his eyes and softly said.
“Ah Yuan, I’m here.” Jing Wan grasped his hand.
Li Hong Yuan turned to look at her, “I know, and moreover, will always be here. ——-Someone come.”
“Wangye, wangfei. What instructions does wangye have?” Hei Mei came in and deferentially asked.
“Bring Fu Rong over.”
Hei Mei clearly hesitated for a moment, “Yes.” Afterwards, she retreated out.
“Fu Rong’s injuries are a bit heavy, so this timing, isn’t it a bit inappropriate?” Jing Wan said.
“It’s preciously this condition that’s the most suitable. A servant that protected the master naturally can obtain the master’s trust, and thus, be able to obtain some important information. And in this way, the other party will further believe that Fu Rong still hasn’t exposed herself.”
Jing Wan understood his meaning. The situation right now was the most fitting.
Besides, Fu Rong precisely got heavily injured because of covering for her, so some things, they don’t even need to cover up. “Let Gong Jiu prescribe some more medicine for her.”
“In this lifetime, this husband won’t count on your heart turning hard.” Li Hong Yuan said.
Jing Wan rolled her eyes at him. Is this situation the same?
Before Fu Rong even appeared, Min Xiao Yuan just came first. Min Xiao Yuan loudly kowtowed outside, begging Jing Wan to have mercy and save Sun Yi Lin. He was about to die.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJing Wan glanced at Li Hong Yuan, not saying anything, guessing that without an order, Gong Jiu simply didn’t treat Sun Yi Lin. He previously was already injured, and afterwards got shot with arrows. Jing Wan although didn’t know the specifics of his condition, but judging from the position of the arrows at the time, afraid it had penetrated the bone. For Sun Yi Lin to have been able to endure until now, it actually was already a miracle.
“Your Highness wangfei, your Highness wangfei, begging you, please save him. Xiao Yuan is willing to become a servant, a slave, and work hard to repay you, your Highness wangfei…….”
Li Hong Yuan coldly sneered, “Having seen Sun Yi Lin take you hostage, yet know that you’re softhearted and can influence my decision, so just this shameless. She, a noble daughter of an influential family, serving someone else would just be met with disdain.”
“If in her place, I would also do the same. ‘Unknown as to when the feelings began, yet looking back, already this deep[1]‘, just this, that’s all.”
Li Hong Yuan fell silent. Because he similarly had deep feelings, that’s why, he didn’t want to retort. A moment later, “Because of Min Xiao Yuan, Wan Wan doesn’t plan on taking Sun Yi Lin’s life?” At present, Li Hong Yuan already didn’t have Sun Yi Lin viewed as a love rival, so facing Sun Yi Lin’s matters, he will no longer decide based on his feelings like in the past.
“Sun Yi Lin’s situation at present, even if saved, he would still be crippled.”The source of this content is novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net
“Sun Yi Lin’s threat is just determined by having a robust body? As the saying goes, it’s hard to fathom a person’s mind. For everyday he’s still alive, there’s just the possibility of an incident occurring.”
“And if he were to become a fool?” Jing Wan lightly said.
Upon hearing, Li Hong Yuan truly blanked. He really didn’t think of this possibility. Mainly, it was still because there wasn’t a precedence to this, but in Jing Wan’s past life, a lunatic or a fool breaking the law, all don’t need to bear the guilt.
“Gong Jiu can probably do it, right?” Jing Wan continued.
“For some people, rather than becoming foolish, they would rather die cleanly.” Li Hong Yuan was merely stating a fact.
“That’s why, whether it’s becoming foolish or dying, let him decide on his own.”
Li Hong Yuan accepted Jing Wan’s suggestion, and shortly after, let Gong Jiu go treat Sun Yi Lin.
Min Xiao Yuan thanked over and over again, simply not knowing that after Sun Yi Lin wakes up, what he will be facing. At that time, don’t know whether or not she will still sincerely thank Jing Wan.
