Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 84.3: Calculations

“Why would I be angry? Rui Qinwang is indeed a good choice, compared to Chen Zheng Min, that kind of nobody, don’t know how many times better. If this matter were to go through, what would those people like Luo Jing Wan be counted as? You’ll be able to easily have them stamped under your foot. However, regarding this matter, you absolutely mustn’t let it get to your head. Aside from your father and I, you can’t let anyone find out. Else, when time comes, our whole family will have to suffer the consequences, understand?”

“Mother, I’m aware of the severity. I definitely won’t carelessly let out a single word.”

“En. Go back to your room then. Right now, I want you to properly learn rules and etiquette with your etiquette mama, as well as how to conduct yourself, and some other things. You probably won’t work half-heartedly anymore, and have unbalanced emotions, right?”

Luo Rong Ying’s cheeks were somewhat hot, “Mother, in the past, this daughter wasn’t sensible, and didn’t know your painstaking efforts. In the days after, I will definitely learn properly.”

“It’s good that you understand, go then.”

“This daughter bids farewell.”

Their family of three believed that they were secretive enough, but in this world, there was also a kind of ‘meticulous person’. As a matter of fact, these words, not long after, were all narrated in detail into Gong mama’s ears.

On the surface, Gong mama was as always without ripples nor waves. That matter she won’t tell miss, mainly because this was unlike the previous incident, where the third branch raised a storm and the entire Luo family practically all knew. This matter can be considered that family’s secret plan. For her to sill be able to know so clearly, anyone would all raise suspicions, let alone someone as clever as miss.

Jing Wan wholeheartedly focused on taking care of those treasured flowers and plants of hers, temporarily putting aside outside matters. After all, Yuan Qiao Qiao and Zhou Ying Shuang’s bodies can only be slowly maintained. She wasn’t a doctor, so she completely couldn’t help out. As for Sun Yi Jia’s marriage, that was something personally decreed by the one with the highest authority in all of Qi Yuan, no one can comment on the matter. She right now rather hoped that the daring to be known as the living Enma, Jin Qinwang, can have this engagement ruined. Although being rejected in marriage by the imperial family would greatly impact a woman, Sun Yi Jia wasn’t the same. In any case, her face was already ruined, staying in Ding Duke Manor, there would still be those few that would shield her.

Everyone all thought that after returning to the capital, Li Hong Yuan would enter the palace first thing. Even if it wasn’t to go mess up the marriage, he should still go to pay his respects to his imperial father and consort mother, no? But unexpectedly, he just returned to Jin Qinwang Manor directly. Once the gates shut, never mind his brothers sending people to his door to check on his situation, even the people by Le Cheng Emperor’s side all ran into a wall.

Le Cheng Emperor furiously slammed tables and smashed memorandums in anger again, violently cursing. But, anyone could tell, no matter how angry he was, he was still in full spirits. It can be seen, with Jin Qinwang’s return, that stamina of his also returned along with it, cursing ‘bastard son, unfilial son, white-eyed wolf’ and so on for an hour, all without even stopping for a rest.

Originally, at this time, he would still be in the imperial study discussing official matters with court officials and also two three of his sons. Yet, in the end, they encountered this matter, so the group could only just hang their heads and wait for him to finish cursing. But what, Li Hong Yuan wasn’t even present? Then sorry, whoever is before him, whoever is out of luck. Taking one’s anger out on someone else, this kind of thing, many people all were capable of doing, let alone an Emperor. When he did it, it was further a matter of course and rightfully so. No one can retort or protest a single word. Dare try groan at him and see, he’ll immediately skin you alive. He wasn’t below anyone, only above tens of thousands. He was just that willful and unreasonable.

The Head of the Cabinet Ministers, Ruan Rui Zhong, Sir Ruan, who has never made a mistake in governmental affairs before, at this time, also got scolded into a dog by Le Cheng Emperor.

As for whether or not they held a grudge in their hearts against the main offender, Jin Qinwang, at first, perhaps they did, but after time and time again, they’d long grown accustomed. No matter how angry you got, or how much you resented, it was all for nothing and even detrimental to one’s body. The best solution was to just listen and wait for Le Cheng Emperor’s anger to die out, or perhaps wait for Jin Qinwang to enter the palace and have Le Cheng Emperor divert the anger.

However, as they listened to Le Cheng Emperor’s cursing, the people below instead more or less dispelled the idea that Le Cheng Emperor had already found Li Hong Yuan. Whether a person was really burning in rage, or just pretending, especially in this kind of emotionally stirred up situation, as the time prolonged, one would still be able to tell.

Don’t know how many cups tea Le Cheng Emperor had already drunk, but he finally slowly stopped his cursing. Now that he finished cursing, the official matters still needed to continue.

After somehow managing to finish handling all the official work, Le Cheng Emperor had the officials and his sons all get lost. Afterwards, he headed straight for Yucui Palace with lingering anger, and then without even waiting for Noble Consort Su to bow, “That bastard unfilial son, really angering this emperor to death. Gone missing for that long, doesn’t he know that his old man will worry? Comes back and doesn’t even enter the palace to pay his respects. Anyone else dare tries this, this emperor would have long removed their head.”

Towards this kind of situation, Noble Consort Su also was long accustomed to, and personally poured a cup of tea for Le Cheng Emperor, “Emperor, please calm down, if this consort has to say, the reason why Yuan’er dares to be this willful is because of your indulgence.”

“This emperor’s indulgence? Is it not beloved consort, your indulgence?” Le Cheng Emperor glared.

Noble Consort Su wasn’t scared in the least, and just smilingly looked to him, stroking his chest to let out his anger, “Yes, yes, it’s all this consort’s fault, but if your Majesty doesn’t indulge this consort, this consort wouldn’t dare to indulge Yuan’er either. So in the end, it is still your Majesty’s indulgence.”

Le Cheng Emperor angrily glared at her, firmly refusing to admit that, that bastard’s current behavior, more than half, was because of himself.

Do you know why Li Hong Yuan didn’t directly enter the palace? Speaking of this, Eunuch Mu had the most right to speak, but it was also something very embarrassing for one to say.

Li Hong Yuan returned to Jin Qinwang Manor, directly took a bath and changed his clothes. Afterwards, he lied back down on his bed and refused to budge.

With him this stubborn, you still expect him to enter the palace, expect him to see guests? Wait until whenever he was willing to move, then talk. That’s right, whenever he was willing.

Li Hong Yuan stayed just like this for three whole days, letting Le Cheng Emperor’s patience also reach its limits. If he still doesn’t enter the palace, Le Cheng Emperor undoubtedly will send people to surround the Jin Qinwang Manor and have him dragged to the imperial palace.

Li Hong Yuan finished putting on the qinwang’s formal gown, not a hair out of place, his entire person imposing and unusually handsome. Putting aside everything else, just based on this bearing and appearance, there really weren’t many young ladies that would not submit to him.

Eunuch Mu straightened out the corners of his hem for him, endlessly sighing inside. If the outside were to find out about master’s true side, afraid all the young ladies of the capital would all fall for him.

However, Li Hong Yuan only occasionally attended court once, and normally would never wear the formal gown. What was wrong with him today, being this solemn?

The Jin Qinwang Manor’s front gates opened. Dressed in the qinwang’s formal gown, along with the qinwang’s procession, Li Hong Yuan grandiosely headed out the door.

The number of qinwang manors in this area weren’t in the few. One after another very quickly all learned that this one, since returning to the capital, finally left home, and even prepared to enter the palace in such a grandiose manner. Have to say, they were all similarly qinwangs, their formal gowns and processions were all the same. The times they’ve set out wearing the formal gown and using the procession was it any less? But, he only ever used occasionally. Sometimes, in a year or two, they wouldn’t even to see Li Hong Yuan use it once. But once he used it, the feeling he gave others strangely was different from the mass. However, if you were to say just exactly where was different, you really couldn’t clearly say either.

When Le Cheng Emperor learned that Li Hong Yan finally entered the palace, his face lit up with joy, and instinctively stood up, but then immediately thought of something and angrily sat back down again, “That bastard still knows to enter the palace. When he comes, let him kneel outside for two hours first.”

And then, not long after, the people below told him, “Your Majesty, Jin Qinwang went to Yucui Palace.”

Le Cheng Emperor nearly smashed the imperial desk again.

T/N: Sorry for slow update this time, I’d strained my lower back and needed to go to the doctor. Don’t worry I’m mostly fine, it’s not that bad——I told my mom about it and she just laughed at how I’m already turning into a grandma in my early twenties sighhhhhhs
