Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 295.2

In a certain sense, this bunch of fake water bandits that were being 'sheltered' by the Pei clan leader, whether it's living or dying, completely depended on Li Hong Yuan's whim. Of course, Li Hong Yuan's whim was completely in Jing Wan's hand. Would Jing Wan let these several hundred men, women, young and old go die? If they were real water bandits that had broken the law and committed crimes, or perhaps because of committing some great crime and having nowhere to go, thus got gathered here by Pei clan leader, then even if not taking their life, Jing Wan would still let them go to the places they should go, for instance prison, or for instance bitter cold places^[1].

The problem right now was, these two cases, they all didn't occupied.

Pei clan leader wanted to say a bit of something to Li Hong Yuan, but unfortunately, Li Hong Yuan right now took in neither salt nor grease. In fact, because the other party was too 'noisy', he once let the bodyguard have the blade propped on his neck. Pei clan leader also clearly sensed, if he were to say another word, Li Hong Yuan really will unhesitantly kill him. Speaking of which, him coming here, have always been secretive. If he really were to die here, for the most part, it would be equal to dying in vain. The people of the Pei clan afraid won't even be able to find his corpse.

Before the Pei clan leader withdrew, the people of the water fort already charged out, and even if having the bodyguards draw the blade and threaten, they were still unable to make them back away.

Pei clan leader hurriedly urged, carrying helplessness on his face, “Wangye, this time, it's all this old man's fault. Please be magnanimous and spare them for once. They are all unfortunate people, and moreover, kindhearted. If you must do something to be able to quell your anger, you can just direct it at this old man, this one definitely won't have the slightest complaint.” He faintly carried a bit of a plea.

The people of the water fort looked to the Pei clan leader with reddened eyes, each and every one all endlessly moved. Afterwards, they looked to Li Hong Yuan with hatred, greatly having the stance of fighting to the end.

Speaking of which, as a person, to be able to reach Pei clan leader's level, one can also be considered a big winner, right?

Li Hong Yuan looked to the Pei clan leader with an ambiguous smile, and towards the crowd of 'wicked commoners', he completely didn't take seriously. And Jing Wan also similarly didn't get frightened by this kind of mutually hostile battle stance. Just, seeing that the situation was getting increasingly tense, as if about to break out at any time, Jing Wan reached out and patted Li Hong Yuan's arm, somewhat helplessly opening her mouth, “Wangye, enough, although holding a grudge, but don't really kill someone.” Her tone was like as if coaxing an angry small child.

Li Hong Yuan was instantly displeased, somewhat flying into a rage out of humiliation as he opened his mouth, “Who's holding a grudge?”

Jing Wan looked to him with an ambiguous smile. Wasn't this clearly obvious? Could this even be not the case?

Li Hong Yuan instantly shot up, his complexion quite unsightly, glaring at Jing Wan, just like as if wanting to swallow her alive. A moment later, without saying anything or doing anything, he just brushed his sleeves and stormed off.

Jing Wan helplessly sighed, lightly waving her hand, “Why don't you all withdraw first, I want to say a few words to Elder Pei.”

The crowd of bodyguards naturally had no objection, and the people of the water fort, after receiving Pei clan leader's indication, also successively withdrew.

Jing Wan personally poured a cup of tea for Pei clan leader, slowly opening her mouth, “Elder Pei, don't blame wangye for being like this. He has knots in his heart. In his heart, he perhaps more or less all somewhat resent. As soon as he was born, he was raised under Noble Consort Su. Although Noble Consort Su treats him like a real son, but all say the imperial family have no feelings of affection, and moreover, Noble Consort Su also has a biological son. What exactly she's thinking in her heart, who would know? Perhaps she's just using wangye to strenthen the emperor's favor, fighting for bargaining chips for her own son.

His Majesty admittedly favors him, but his Majesty is a ruler first, then a father. The other princes, even if without a maternal family, would still have a mother, and granted that some don't have either, but they also don't have his Majesty's favor, just an invisible person in other people's eyes, so won't become a threat. In comparison, they were actually even more free. Wangye's imperial favor made others resent out of jealousy the most, yet he just doesn't have anyone helping him. Don't look at how he's limitlessly well-off on the surface, in reality, he's actually the one living the most exhaustingly among the various princes.

Right now, he's already come of age, his temperament increasingly tough and durable, but in his childhood, there will inevitably be certain longings, yet have never been able to come true. Right now, in the depths of his heart, he may not necessarily not have this kind of longing. Actually, coming here this time is precisely the best evidence. Because when initially obtaining the news, wangye seemingly was somewhat moved. He appeared to be calm, but as the person who shares his bed, one is able to sense the fretfulness and impatience in his heart. Truthfully speaking, wangye right now doesn't lack people helping him. What he lacks is family…………family that's genuinely good to him.

This time, Elder Pei used such a special method to 'invite' wangye, don't know what intentions this stems from? If purely just for the sake of him as a person, because he's your blood-related outer grandson, your family, and because it's not good to meet him openly, you thus would do this, then I believe, wangye's attitude towards you will change sooner or later. But, if for other reasons, then Elder Pei best not talk. Wangye, in this respect, is especially sensitive, and also especially disgusted.

My words end here, I will take my leave first.” With that said, Jing Wan also didn't wait for the other party to respond, directly leaving.

The Pei clan leader didn't have any reactions either, sitting there, somewhat lost in thought. Towards Jin Wangfei's words, he for the most part believed, but what he was unsure of was whether this was this outer granddaughter-in-law heart-aching for her own husband and thus telling him, or the two of them colluding in advance, the purpose similarly playing the affections card, and thereby obtaining even more benefits. In his eyes, the latter's possibility was higher. After all, this pair of husband and wife have only been married for a little over two months. His outer grandson, judging by appearances, was just not a simple one, so how can he have his past easily voiced.

And taking his own wife out on a long journey, being lovey-dovey along the way, in Pei clan leader's eyes, also wasn't real loving affections, just nothing more than a kind of cover up.

However, regardless of which, there was one thing that can be certain, and that was just, to want to achieve one's goal, one must have 'sincerity', in any shape or form.

Returning to the place they're temporarily staying at, Jing Wan saw Li Hong Yuan leaning against a chair and flipping through a book with great boredom, where was he still the slightest bit angry. Sensing Jing Wan come in, he didn't even lift his eyelids, “What was Wan Wan saying about this husband in front of outsiders?”

Jing Wan walked over, pulling out the book in his hand, carrying a bit of tease as she looked to him, “Wangye's acting skills have become increasingly fluid and natural.”

“Really? Wan Wan is also not bad, continue working hard.”

Jing Wan softly laughed, stopping it here. Talking about these things actually were quite boring, and moreover, in the end, the possibility of her losing was too high. She had her words earlier roughly repeated.

“Is this husband this miserable? This husband, on the surface and in the dark, is wanton all the same. To want to let me suffer isn't that easy of a thing.”

“Yes, yes, yes, who is wangye, there's only you letting other people suffer. ——-Say, what will this Pei clan leader think?”

“If that dead thing wants real family, then don't count on him. Regardless of what he's thinking, for him, I'm extremely vital, but for me, he's less than scraps. I won't let him occupy the upper hand. If one doesn't let him ruthlessly bleed, then don't even think about obtaining any sort of benefits from me.”

“Then, the matters later, let him settle?”

“Of course.”
