Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 379.1

The manor doctor was still treating Kang Qinwang's little heir. Kang Qinwang's side consort sat to the side, unable to make out her emotions from her face. Only her eyes were growing increasingly cold. Her hand that was concealed in her sleeve clenched into a fist, leaving behind a deep imprint in her palm. If this child really were to go deaf, then she also can't escape from the blame.

This child was actually his Majesty's eldest di grandson. Because he was clever and also delicate looking, even Le Cheng Emperor regarded quite highly, let alone the Empress. In a certain sense, she had him viewed more importantly than Kang Qinwang. If he were to from here on become disabled, the aftermath, one practically didn't dare to imagine.

In her eyes, getting punished was still a separate matter. Mainly it was still feeling guilty, such a small child………….

Once the manor doctor finished, seeing that expression of his, one just knew, it won't be good. Kang Qinwang's side consort closed her eyes, “Just say it directly.”

“Your Highness, please forgive, this humble one, this humble one is incompetent.” He trembled in fear. Being a manor doctor for upper class noble families, in a certain sense, was a pleasant job, but all things have two sides. Just like now, if something happens to the masters, and one is unable to do anything to solve the situation, then one might have one's life thrown in.

“Withdraw then. ——–Someone come, invite the imperial physicians, invite as many as you can.”

Speaking of which, this absolutely wasn't a small matter, believe that very soon, it will just alarm the entire palace. Although the one that caused it was Kang Qinwang himself, but Jing Wan who invoked Kang Qinwang's violent rage, afraid, won't be able to escape the blame either. After all, taking one's anger out on the innocent, everyone knew how, and it's difficult to control oneself when extremely heartbroken and in pain.

Just, the people going to invite the imperial physician had just hastily rushed out of Kang Qinwang Manor, when not long after, Li Hong Yuan received news. And Jin Qinwang Manor's carriage had merely just reached Jin Qinwang Manor.

“Yu'er might lose his hearing?” Li Hong Yuan was somewhat surprised, but his expression didn't change in the slightest, seemingly as if it wasn't anything major.

However, Jing Wan uncontrollably furrowed her brows, tightly clenching the handkerchief in hand.

Li Hong Yuan reached out and held Jing Wan's hand, “Don't worry, you have me for everything.”

Jing Wan shook her head, “I'm not scared of getting implicated in this matter, but rather feel that Kang Qinwang, this person, truly is bit…………..The tiger may be malicious, but it does not devour its cub. How can he just do such a malicious thing? Ah Yuan, you also heard, getting spun in circles by a concubine, yet didn't go check on his child at all. Children are all treasures bestowed by the heavens, to not cherish at all, such a person, deserve to have his descendants severed.” Speaking to here, Jing Wan's expression was exceptionally cold.

Li Hong Yuan lightly caressed Jing Wan's back, “Li Hong Yi is naturally born violent and impulsive, not using his brain in handling matters, and frequently because of small matters just overflow with rage, losing his rationality. Even if there's the Empress and the others assisting him and dealing with the aftermath, they still frequently leave behind more trouble because of him. In this prince's eyes, if not for having the Empress's protection, he would've already gotten devoured into nothing back in the palace long ago. Speaking of which, for him to be particularly confident in himself, it's nothing more than relying on his position as the eldest di son, believing that the throne should rightfully be his. After clipping certain wings of his, any random person can crush him to death.”

“What does Ah Yuan plan on doing?” Jing Wan looked towards Li Hong Yuan, knowing that he most likely have some plan.

“Let the Empress be ill for a period of time, that's all.” Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly said.

Jing Wan was greatly shocked, looking to Li Hong Yuan with disbelief in her eyes. This man's abilities were this godly, even able to control the inner palace? One has to know, the power and influence in the inner palace was balanced, and not just one side solely growing big. Moreover, those women, each and every one all weren't simple. You who don't even have an actual mother, your foster mother even having her own son, are all able to control the inner palace, then what are the others still in the game for? To want to have Le Cheng Emperor kicked down, regardless whether it's keeping alive or killing, all a very simple matter.

This while, Jing Wan had everything written on her face. Li Hong Yuan helplessly laughed, “It's not that exaggerated. If it had really reached that step, then all of this would've long ended. It's just, certain arrangements can be used once, but can't be used a second time, that's all.”

Jing Wan nodded, “Since that's the case, then presumably it's a very secretive arrangement. Why not use it at a more crucial time, no need to waste it now.”

“What is considered a crucial time, and what is considered wasteful? There is no absolute definition for this. Wan Wan, don't think that right now it's because of you that this husband is taking action, believing that this is just wasting the opportunity. In reality, it's not the case. Regardless whether it's me or those brothers, the things we are doing, actually in essence, are all more or less the same. Either it's just strengthening ourselves, or just weakening others. Right now, it's just utilizing some hidden pawns. Whether it's sooner or later, as long as it can achieve the goal, it's enough. Perhaps right now it's precisely the best opportunity. Besides, any secretive and crucial arrangements, compared to you, that is all irrelevant, and all can be utilized and also all can be abandoned.”

Jing Wan although secretly rolled her eyes at Li Hong Yuan, but her faintly blushing cheeks and ears still revealed her true emotions.

Li Hong Yuan reached out, having her taken into his arms. This little darling of his, her face was still this thin. He clearly was just stating the truth, and absolutely wasn't deliberately saying some sweet words, yet every time, she would always be embarrassed. How come she was just this adorable? If switched with him, and Wan Wan was the one saying 'pleasant words' all day, he can also accept without question, not even batting an eye.

After quietly cuddling for a bit, they finally climbed down from the horse carriage.

“Since you feel doing this now isn't a problem, then I also won't say anything more. Just, once that hidden pawn is moved, will there be dangers?”

“As long as a hidden pawn, from the start, just need to have the resolve of getting put to death after getting discovered. Wan Wan, you should also understand this bit.”

Jing Wan fell silent. Indeed, regardless of what kind of societal backdrop or era, spies, secret agents, and such all take on an extremely dangerous task. “Towards their family, need to take care of more.” At least, let them give up their life without worries or attachment.

Li Hong Yuan lightly sighed, yet didn't say anything. He was someone who was stained black from head to toe. Human life and whatnot, he simply didn't take seriously. In reality, for those brothers of his, as well as many of those in power, which one wasn't like this. As long as they can achieve their goal, a few people dying simply wasn't anything, and won't even crease their brow.

However, the matter this time really wasn't that serious.

“Don't worry, no one will die. Not utilizing a second time is just preventing them from getting discovered. After all, that one is relatively special, and under normal circumstances, won't have her life thrown in.”

Jing Wan was slightly astonished. In the palace, whose life was one that this one won't sacrifice?

Le Cheng Emperor obviously didn't need to be mentioned. If he wants to do something to the Empress, it absolutely won't be this troublesome. Moreover, if this one is able to order around the Emperor, then he similarly didn't need to put in this much trouble. Afterwards, it was just Noble Consort Su. However, if Noble Consort Su had that kind of capability, then she certainly would use it to help her own son. Someone aside from these two? According to Jing Wan's understanding, even if it's these two, when necessary, a certain someone would similarly be able to abandon. Then, exactly who was it that had this great of a capability?

Jing Wan's eyes were full of curiosity, and Li Hong Yuan didn't hide from her either, “Shu Consort Qin.”

T/N: Shu Consort Qin, aka Qin Tian Ming's younger sister, she has been foreshadowed quite a lot in s. Shu Consort is her title, just like Noble Consort, and her surname is Qin. The historical notes page has explanations on the imperial consort titles.
