Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 302.2

The two of them intimately stuck together in the little hot spring, sweetly whispering to one another. As for those officials in the outer courtyard, their mood truly wasn't that wonderful, especially after learning a certain someone's 'violent act'. One has to know, compared with Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan, they were really not relaxed, especially the ones that were past a certain age. Starting from last night, they've been continuously tossed about, and even for the most part, haven't eaten or drunk anything. They can be said to be both mentally and physically tired. When on the boat, they actually still had some time to slightly rest a little, but this situation now, how can they fall asleep?

This while, some were nearly unable to hold up anymore. That body was genuinely swaying. And now, unknown as to whether or not they'd gotten frightened, they actually just fainted like that.

Fainting at this time wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The others perhaps would disdain on the surface, but on the inside, perhaps they were even a bit jealous. At least they can temporarily avoid for a little while. However, it was probably not too different from drowning one's sorrows with alcohol, only to become even more worried. In the end, one still needed to face.

Jing Wan looked to the clothes Gong mama sent in, reaching out to touch the material, first class high quality material, “These people move rather quickly.”

But Gong mama nevertheless wasn't that satisfied, “It was rushed out after all, so the workmanship and embroidery all lacking a little, reckon the clothes are also a little big on the body. Wangye and wangfei will first have to be wronged for two days. Perhaps there isn't much of others things in Jiangnan, but the embroiderers definitely aren't few. After finding some more embroiderers, and also don't need those complicated embroidery techniques and patterns, just picking the simple and refined ones, the final result will also be the same.”

“Wouldn't go as far as to feel wronged. The rest, mama, just handle as you see fit.” The embroidery was still secondary. It was mainly still the workmanship and whether or not it was well-fitting that was more important. Having been used to something for a long time, if the workmanship was lacking or perhaps not fitting, one can just easily feel it.

Li Hong Yuan idly watched and listened from the side. Once they finished talking, and Gong mama turned and left, he finally got up. The water droplets on his body were casually wiped away, and afterwards, donned the clothes on his body, subconsciously frowning, “Things that are rushed out, as expected, nothing good.” See, it was precisely like this, knowing good or bad as soon as one puts on.

“Mainly still because of not knowing the sizes. Fortunately didn't make it too small for you.” Jing Wan straightened out the shoulder area for him. “If these areas are any smaller, it'll just snap. That way, it really won't be able to be put on.”

“Even this kind of trivial matter, all able to make big mistakes, should just add to the offense.”

Jing Wan laughed, but didn't respond. For some people, this offense, whether or not it's added, there was already no difference.

After putting on the clothes, it was returning to the room to nicely wash the hair. Seeing the things in the room, aside from some decorations, the things that ordinarily needed to be used were actually all newly purchased. It can be seen, the thoughts were put in. However, in Li Hong Yuan's eyes, it was still all kinds of disdaining. If there were better options, he probably wouldn't even touch once.

“Wan Wan, why don't you go tidy up first.”

Jing Wan also didn't hold back, directly heading to the cleaning room in the back.

Afterwards, Eunuch Mu finally entered the room and reported those officials' situation.

Li Hong Yuan didn't even bat an eye, “Let them all get lost. Without this prince's summoning, not allowed to appear before this prince.”

“Yes.”

It was still the same routine, just the officials of Kaiming Fu weren't unfamiliar. As the saying goes, unfamiliar the first time, well accustomed the second time. Their expressions were also quite normal. As for the officials of Chongzhou Fu, that expression just wasn't that wonderful.

However, with Li Hong Yuan not issuing an order, the people of Kaiming Fu also could only wait here. They belonged to Tong Prefecture, so they cannot get involved in Shannan Prefecture's affairs, especially those government soldiers, only able to curl up in a corner, and can be said to be quite miserable. From top to bottom, clearly on their own territory, there were matters to be handled, and also relaxing and comfortable, yet they just had to pretend to be a grandson here.

The calmest one, as expected, was still Inspector General Su. According to his argument, on normal days, it was rare to have the opportunity to leave Tong Prefecture, and now, just happened to have the chance, even not needing to worry about governmental affairs, what can one have against this? The former Governor-General, seeing that fake appearance of his, nearly fainted in anger. Their own mess still haven't been cleaned up, yet now wasting time here. One has to know, for every extra day wasted here, the dangers back at home might just increase by a fraction. This old dog, either it was just having himself washed clean, or having long made arrangements, where even without him overseeing, it would still be no problem.

Li Hong Yuan didn't care what they were thinking, staying in the villa for two days, not setting a foot out. And the people that 'got lost' en route also found their way back. Rather, they didn't encounter any similar mishap as Gong mama and them. As such, the servant girls were all in good condition. Additionally, even the other servants previously detained in Kaiming Fu also arrived in Chongzhou Fu.

Jing Wan remembered that the chefs inside had problems, so asked her husband. The other party was calm and composed, not in a hurry to deal with.

Since he was calm, Jing Wan naturally just didn't bother anymore.

On the third day, Li Hong Yuan finally had movements. Just one line, have all the relatively capable accountants in the entire Chongzhou Fu all gathered together. Everyone was all nervous. What was this for? Li Hong Yuan this time was actually very straightforward, and didn't suspend everyone's appetite, issuing the order, 'Have all of the entire Chongzhou Fu's various accounts in the last ten years handed over.'

This move was quite simple and crude. Previously, even if having thought of every way possible to balance the accounts, but over a ten year period, the span of time too long, no matter how one balances, there will inevitably be gaps. Moreover, utilizing the entire Chongzhou Fu's accountants, the private ones of merchant families, the ones of each government office, and also the ones of the large residences, it can be said to be 'fish and dragons mixing together^[1]'. And precisely because of this, it thus was increasingly hard to falsify.

The officials' heart wildly beat, looking for all kinds of excuses, wanting to delay. Li Hong Yuan rather didn't utter a single word, but afterwards, the black clad guards just moved out.

Originally on the surface just fifty black clad guards, and although learning through certain channels, this number needed to be doubled, but right now, fucking hell, the number of people reached as many as five hundred.

A pitch black mass, making one fearful from just looking. Clearly, for ordinary government soldiers, even if the amount reached over ten thousand, all won't have this kind of feeling.

The black clad guards won't be courteous with you. If you dare to obstruct, without a second word, the blade will be directly propped on your neck, and if you utter a sound, blood will be drawn.

Li Su Yan personally led the group, overflowing with dark currents, practically just another version of the living Enma. Previously, the person in charge tried to joke with him, and directly got an arm chopped off by him.

Killing the chicken to warn the monkey, it couldn't be more ruthless.

As such, the time it took to fetch the account books was considerably fast, all gathering in the villa Li Hong Yuan and them were temporarily staying in.

Li Hong Yuan actually showed his face, and the entire Chongzhou Fu's officials also all gathered. Moving over a luohan couch, just like that under numerous eyes, he lazily leaned against it.

Eunuch Mu flung the horsetail whisk, standing out like the fox exploiting the tiger's might. Facing the crowd of accountants, he sharply opened his mouth, “You all listen carefully, these account books, each person gets a portion. In the side wing, partitioned compartments have already been prepared for everyone, one person, one compartment, carefully inspect, don't count on falsifying. The account books that have been audited will also be given to others to examine again. If an inconsistency is discovered by the person afterwards, what you all need to consider won't just be the head on your own neck. Properly consider some more for your own family.”
