Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 294.2

An abnormal expression flashed through Pei clan leader's eyes, “What does wangfei want to know, this one will certainly say everything that one knows.”

Li Hong Yuan slightly frowned, and towards Pei clan leader's words, he declined to comment, just turning his head to glance at Jing Wan, “Alright.”

The tip of Pei clan leader's brows showed joy as he waved his hand. The boats behind him quickly parted, and the small boat he was on also yielded to one side as he made an 'inviting' gesture with his hand.

Aside from Pei clan leader's small boat, Li Hong Yuan's people still focused on occupying the surrounding positions.

Along the way, Pei clan leader attempted to chat with Li Hong Yuan, but all met with silence, getting thoroughly ignored. He also didn't get angry, settling for the next best thing as he began to chat with Jing Wan. His age was displayed there, and in reality, was even older than Luo Pei Shan. In addition to also being an 'elder', and 'in essence', just wanting to find out about his outer grandson's situation, it wasn't considered to be violating etiquette either.

Jing Wan was self-aware that 'word-battling' with this kind of person, she most likely will lose thoroughly, so she just took on the principle of 'saying everything one knows'. Ordinary matters, what can be said can be however detailed one wants, but aside from this, she all just brushed off with 'don't know'. It couldn't be helped. After all her time in the capital hasn't been long.

And these things that Jing Wan mentioned, for the most part, were things that the Pei clan leader already knew. Because Jing Wan replied too naturally, and he also wasn't able to pick out any problems, as such, he didn't know whether Jing Wan really didn't know or just pretending to not know. However, his views towards Jing Wan nevertheless changed somewhat. Originally thought that she was probably just an ordinary girl, so certainly far inferior to their Pei clan daughters, that's why, from the start, he for the most part also just ignored her. Looking at it now, her bearing and cultivation was extremely good, her style of speech calm and easy-mannered, neither humble nor timid, and standing by this outer grandson's side, it was actually extremely congenial. Setting aside whether her influence towards this grandson was real, or just the couple echoing one another while putting on a play, his original plans towards her afraid will have to change a little.

After she finished saying the things 'known by all', Jing Wan meaningfully glanced at Li Hong Yuan as she began to ask about Imperial Noble Consort.

Pei clan leader tacitly understood, and naturally started dramatically speaking about his beloved daughter's matter, gentle and sweet-tempered, considerate and kind, proficient in the four arts and all kinds of poetry, verses, and song, very well learned. Her literary works were also sophisticated, even having compiled history books before, and in terms of good looks, naturally don't need to be mentioned, the people seeking to marry her since childhood just too many to count, nearly crushing the doorstep. As he said this, he revealed a sorrowful and melancholic expression, “…………For women, it's still better to be average looking, else for what reason would one be separated from one's own flesh and blood, unable to meet in life and death.”

Saying it how unwillingly, saying it how sorrowfully, having the deep hatred concealed, and just because truly hard to control, thus revealing a little.

Jing Wan lightly sighed inside. This acting skill, incredible. If not for knowing the actual circumstances, Jing Wan felt, she most likely will have all been moved.

Saying this much, it was nothing more than wanting to play the affections card. However, really a pity, he just had to encounter Li Hong Yuan, this kind of out of the ordinary man. Regardless whether it was Le Cheng Emperor, Noble Consort Su, or his birth mother, all his feelings towards these people have already whittled away cleanly in his past life. Although he'd also once thought, if his birth mother was still alive, whether or not he would have another set of circumstances, but afterwards, even if learning that his old man killed his mother, and because he was a ghost child thus was extremely disliked by his old man, he also didn't have any feelings anymore, let alone now.

In Pei clan leader's eyes, Li Hong Yuan very much wanted to learn about his mother's everything, just perhaps due to his resentment of 'being abandoned', unwilling to open his mouth to ask, thus borrowed his wife's mouth. Just, right now, from his face, he was unable to make out the slightest indication, so Pei clan leader was also unsure.

When Jing Wan still wanted to say something, Li Hong Yuan suddenly opened his mouth, “Enough.” Although a bit cold, compared to others, it was still much better.

As the saying goes, when putting on an act, need to perform the entire set! Jing Wan blanked, and shortly after said with a smile, “If wangye doesn't want to listen, then can not listen, but this wife is very much interested.”

Li Hong Yuan mockingly sneered at her, “He said he's the Pei clan's clan leader, so just the Pei clan's clan leader? Whatever he says, you just believe? Wangfei, when did you become this easy to deceive?”

Never mind the Pei clan leader getting choked quite severely, even Jing Wan was somewhat between laughter and tears, “Who would play a joke with this? Whether or not this old mister is the Pei clan leader is very easy to verify. Moreover, even if eating the heart of a bear and guts of a leopard, there's still no reason to trick you.”

Li Hong Yuan coldly sneered, “Jiangnan's number one illustrious clan's clan leader squatting in a water bandits' fort, even calling the wind and rain, the airs of a boss, specialized in doing shady things?”

“Jin Qinwang can insult us, but why insult clan leader?” Someone immediately opened their mouth in anger.

Alright, turns out it wasn't suspecting, but rather mocking. Pei clan leader lifted his hand, “Don't be rude to wangye. ——–Wangye, this is a misunderstanding. They although shoulder the reputation of water bandits, but they've never done anything against the law. It's just because of some special reason that they can't settle down in other areas. Borrowing the water bandit's name is also nothing more than needing a peaceful place to live, that's all.”

Yo, this is doing a 'good deed'?

Li Hong Yuan lightly chuckled. This was truly and honestly mocking. Based on Jiangnan's number one illustrious clan's ability, would they not be able to arrange for a bunch of relatively 'special' people? Everything else aside, even if a government slave, to want to arrange some matters all wasn't anything too difficult, yet now, having such a batch of people here acting as water bandits, at most it's just to deceive these people that have gotten ill-intentionally exploited by you yet still deeply grateful towards you.

Pei clan leader understood Li Hong Yuan's meaning, but he wasn't too bothered by this. This kind of thing, everyone was all well aware inside. His explanation was said for Li Hong Yuan to hear, and the focus was on these people never having done 'bad things' before, that's all. As for whether or not there were other things, perhaps, but even if done, these 'water bandits' all won't realize what exactly was done, and whether it was good or bad. As someone participating in the bloody battle for the throne, it wasn't likely for him to not even understand this. That's why, he simply didn't mind.

Reaching the water fort, this indeed was a residence with more than half built on top the water, appearing simple with no luxury, but as a whole, it nevertheless had a kind of unique charm. En, Jing Wan quite like it. En, Li Hong Yuan very much disdained. Standing in the so called the biggest, the best, the 'specifically left for the clan elder to reside in' house, Li Hong Yuan casually swept a few glances, “Someone come, go have the things on the boat brought down.”

Jing Wan wanted to facepalm, “Wangye is planning on temporarily staying here?”

“Stay for two days. For some people, we at least have to give a bit more time.” Li Hong Yuan said, not at all avoiding.

Jing Wan didn't speak. In her eyes, some people, probably include Le Cheng Emperor, Noble Consort Su, Li Hong Yuan's brothers, Tong Prefecture, Shannan Prefecture, and even the entire Jiangnan region's big and small officials, as well as………..Sun Yi Lin. The ones that were anxious and worried will be even more anxious and worried, and the ones that were happy will be extra happy. When the former is on the edge of despair, give them a nice surprise, and the latter, when believing themselves to finally be safe, give them a fatal blow.

Facing such a willful and fond of messing with people for fun husband, Jing Wan also could only silently sigh.

The Pei clan leader was actually rather happy, immediately ordering someone to go help. After all, according to his understanding, the things this outer grandson needed wasn't just a little bit.

And at the same time, that large boat also needed to be slightly covered up. It was too conspicuous. Under normal circumstances, there won't be anyone entering the tributary, but the situation right now was special. Although it's said that right now, the Chongzhou Fu army was cleaning up water bandits a little further downstream, but because they couldn't determine the specific place where Jin Qinwang got ambushed, that's why, this several thousand meter section all won't be let off. Although the closer they get to the nearby river course, the smaller the search density will be, but nevertheless need to guard against that contingency.

Afterwards, they finally learned that nearby there was even an enormous cliff cave with quite the exceptional charm covered by lush rattan. Pushing the boat in, it was appropriately and safely placed, and from the outside, unable to make out any peculiarities.

Just, the things brought down from the boat made the people in the water fort dumbstruck from watching. These things, many were something that even the one among them that was believed to be the most knowledgeable and experienced all have never seen before.

Pei clan leader stroked his beard. Although he'd heard about this outer grandson's extremely and excessively luxurious luggage, and when he heard, he was even unconcerned, but seeing the reality, he all was somewhat unable to remain calm. For a grown man to be lavish and enjoying oneself to this degree, is it really okay? Alright, Pei clan leader had no choice but to admit, although luxurious, this luxuriousness wasn't in poor taste. Those valuable decorations even made him somewhat moved. Speaking from this aspect, Jin Qinwang really was matching the rumors.

Li Hong Yuan's target although was the Pei clan leader, but right now, he simply didn't want to bother with him. For him, this place seemingly was just a suitable place to rest and carry out his plans.

In the capital, people have already received news. Le Cheng Emperor was furious, nearly just overturning the imperial desk. Not giving anyone the chance to dissuade, he directly ordered Tong Prefecture and Shannan Prefecture to go all-out searching, and said: 'If Jin Qinwang is well, they will be well, otherwise………….'
