Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 276.1

In summary, in merely a short few days, everyone just more or less came to an understanding, Jin Wangfei really was a good person. How come she just had to marry Jin Qinwang, this degenerate?

The ones that possessed this thought weren't just the people of the other factions, even Jin Qinwang's own people all thought this too.

Jin Qinwang's ability didn't need to be doubted, and those that have witnessed before, not one didn't believe that he was the most suitable heir to the throne. But this kind of overpowered master, you most likely won't be able to keep up with his thinking speed, and once you're slow to react, he will just look to you like looking at an idiot, making one truly ashamed, wanting to go die, once again doubting one's former life.

And Li Hong Yuan was inherently also cold-hearted, completely lacking compassion, his methods bloody. Actually, for the people that work for him, as time increases, and their understanding towards him deepening, their hearts all faintly possess worry. Just, this layer of worry, no one dared to rashly expose. Perhaps it was also deceiving themselves, not wanting to acknowledge, and once the female master comes along, learning her temperament, understanding her character, but more importantly, master cares about her, able to listen to her persuasion, truly, there was nothing more joyous than this.

(T/N: Sometimes the author likes to start a sentence one way, but then end in a completely different way that doesn't connect with the front, and I just kinda give up and just translate as is, like it's just as grammatically incorrect in chinese.)

Under normal circumstances, for a woman to have too great of an influence towards the regent, this definitely wasn't something the subjects wish to see, but if the regent is superior in ability, yet inherently a tyrant, for this woman to be able to influence the regent's way of thinking, or even his decision making, and she herself is also inherently highly principled, able to distinguish right from wrong, then this kind of combination was actually something they were happy to see.

Along this journey, as long as it was someone who worked for Li Hong Yuan, regardless of whether they were on the surface or in the dark, they all had everything taken in, rejoicing. And the hidden worry in their heart also gradually diluted, or even completely disappeared, so naturally, they just respected Jing Wan even more from the bottom of their heart, and at the same time, also secretly influenced the other people's view towards Jing Wan.

As for Jin Wangfei being a jealous woman, this bit, she indeed did those things, but it didn't affect her relationship with Jin Qinwang at all. Just slightly thinking about it, one would know, this wasn't just Jin Wangfei's problem alone. Without Jin Qinwang's indulgence, as the wife, how could Jin Wangfei be absolutely unrestrained?

Don't say something like an easily jealous empress will affect the emperor's children. If the empress is unwilling to continue 'tying up' the emperor, then what future is there to speak of, because the emperor himself will first have the country ruined from messing around. That way, what use was there in having more children? All say, 'the more sons, the more good fortune', but in reality? Having a pile of sons, yet can be full of good fortune, and be peaceful, healthy, and happy for one's whole life, how many were there that can achieve this? Clearly it was even more of brothers fighting amongst themselves, falling apart, and fighting to the death.

Ten useless trash that only have benefits in their eyes can't even compare with a single outstanding heir.

Rational people should further believe this. For all things, it was quality over quantity. Even for sons, it was also the case.

Alright, saying these now was still too early. After all, variables of change can exist at all times. It wasn't good to think too much. It was still the present that was more important.

Li Hong Yuan observed the change in the surrounding people, and couldn't help but secretly hook the corner of his mouth. A certain few's worry really wasn't groundless. Towards his current true nature, he was very clear. Without Jing Wan, he more than nine times out of ten will be completely unbridled, and just as Grandmaster Liao Chen said, causing the world to burn, the people unable to survive. For him to leave behind a happy piece of land, it was just because this piece of land had her.

Right now, he will pave the road little by little, adding assets for her, having her cupped up onto the highest position, letting Wan Wan's influence be so great to the point where in the future, even if he ascends the throne, the court officials won't urge him to expand the imperial harem, opening branches and scattering leaves, but instead do the opposite, urging him to only pamper and dote on the Empress, this kind of woman, and if he were to betray her, it was practically unforgivable by the heavens.

—————Regardless whether it's due to their true intentions, or worrying that he, without bindings, will act recklessly, as long as they achieve this bit, for him, perhaps it was an even higher accomplishment than starting a golden age.

The majestic fleet of vessels advanced along the canal. Wherever they passed, all boats could only yield. Never mind behaving low-key, secretively investigating in the dark, Li Hong Yuan fully acted out his tyrant style. Everywhere he went, it was practically just clearly telling everyone that he, Li Hong Yuan, a qinwang of the current reign, his Majesty's personally appointed imperial envoy, has arrived.

Thus, someone wanted to ask, to have such great fanfare, what can they even investigate? All the evidence of crime afraid will have all been covered up, then mutually colluding, afraid they will have to return empty-handed.

Someone had given him a suggestion before, but Li Hong Yuan simply didn't listen, doing as he pleased.

Originally, among the boats, the most luxurious vessel was precisely his and Jing Wan's. The remaining people, aside from Yu Zhong Qing and Li Su Yan, all were Jin Qinwang Manor's people. These people were originally quite numerous, but after placing on the boat, it was actually very empty. As for whether or not the people on the other boats would be pitifully crowded together, that all wasn't within his scope of consideration. As the main entourage, to want to climb on his boat to speak with him, they still needed to obtain his approval. And if he were to get annoyed with them, he would just forbid them from getting on his boat again. Thus, the others could only stand on another boat, watching Li Hong Yuan stand on the highest place, with such carefreeness, yet they themselves could only silently face the wind and shed tears.

That's why, Jin Qinwang's temperament improving, that was definitely a misconception. It was merely because there was Jin Wangfei in the middle mediating, thus he didn't pick a fight, that's all.

————-Wangfei, you really are a good person, so can't you just help some more?

However, very sorry, Jing Wan can't hear their thoughts. Moreover, on official matters, she believed that he certainly has a plan, having an idea in mind, so regardless of what he did now, she all won't say anything, instead very willfully letting someone prepare an iron plate for grilling.

Moderate wind, beautiful sunlight, directly facing the wind, a specifically made iron grill was set up on deck. The various skewered food piled up into a little mountain, and during the grilling process, the aroma permeated the whole place. The gluttonous bug in the stomach all began livening up along with the smell. Back in Qi'an Fu, Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju's skills in barbecuing already got maxed out wonderfully. In addition to Hei Mei and Bao Shao just being naturally skilled in this aspect, they just figured it out after learning once. Moreover, the chefs brought out from the qinwang manor also weren't decoration. These things, for them, didn't require the slightest skill.

Jing Wan just needed to open her mouth and wait for food.

Jing Wan's cooking skills weren't all that great, but she believed her skill in grilling was still pretty good, planning on letting her own husband also have a taste of her cooking.

Seeing that a certain someone was a carnivore, Jing Wan also didn't make things difficult for him this time, grilling a few skewers of all-meat, and sending it before Li Hong Yuan, “Have a taste?” She carried a bit of small hope. After all, a certain someone's mouth was that picky, so who knows whether or not the things she made can enter his mouth.

Li Hong Yuan laughed. Including his own wife, everyone all felt he was the most 'pampered', and if not the best, he all won't use.

Holding Jing Wan's hand, Li Hong Yuan took a bite, carefully tasting, “The flavor pretty good.”

Jing Wan revealed a happy smile, this sincere and natural, purely because of such a small matter. In a certain sense, Jing Wan was actually gradually becoming even more human.

The past her, majority of the times, was entirely dominated by rationality, but after marrying Li Hong Yuan, the times that required her to be calm and rational really weren't many.

(T/N: I like that the author writes her calm rationality like a double-edge sword, it's good for problem solving, yet it makes her lack human warmth.)

“Anything Wan Wan makes, even if it's poison, this husband will eat all the same.”

However, Li Hong Yuan's sweet talk, in this moment, seemingly lost its effectiveness, because Jing Wan's face instantly just collapsed, “So, it's because of the person that made it that made you feel the taste was pretty good, and not because of it in itself? That's why, the things I made were inherently still very difficult to eat?”

Li Hong Yuan was somewhat between laughter and tears. His little darling actually bickered over this? This is grabbing the wrong point, alright. Li Hong Yuan took it from her hands, pinching her face in passing, “Not that terrible. In reality, it indeed still taste pretty good. If you don't believe, have a taste yourself.” As he said this, he held the skewer, and neither slowly nor quickly began eating.

Jing Wan slapped aside his hand, “Not allowed to pinch the face. I'm not a small child. ———Let me have a taste.” After tasting, Jing Wan was satisfied, and unhesitantly had everything in hand all shoved to Li Hong Yuan.

Amusement flashed across Li Hong Yuan's eyes. If you say you're not a small child, then don't be this childish.

His wife getting pampered to the point where her mentality was regressing, as a wife-pampering man, this definitely was a great accomplishment.
