Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
chapter-145-2

“Old madam, quickly rise. How’s your family’s third girl?” Noble Consort Su anxiously asked.

“Replying to your Highness, temporarily haven’t figured out the cause of illness, was just thinking of going to invite the imperial physician over for a look.” Luo Old Madam, at the moment, was unbearably anxious.

“Old madam don’t worry, the imperial physician has already been invited and will arrive shortly. This consort just wanted to see that girl.” However, immediately after, she saw the Grand Elder Princess and paused for a moment. The two of them mutually greeted one another.

Towards the people of her imperial brother’s harem, including the Empress, that di sister-in-law, the Grand Elder Princess all wasn’t interested in. Each and every one appearing to be dignified and virtuous, but in actuality, which one was actually a good sprout. Thus, when meeting, to be able to get her to nod her head was already pretty good.

Seeing Jing Wan’s complexion, Noble Consort Su was also shocked. Compared to her previous appearance, she can be said to be a completely different person.

Rather, it was Ruan Fang Fei, who was standing relatively further away, that had a trace of inquiry penetrating through her eyes. That thing of hers completely didn’t have this kind of effect, making her ill to this degree. At most it was just letting her strangely feel dizzy, and then needing to invite a doctor for a look, that’s all.

Ruan Fang Fei lightly caressed the embroidered pouch at her waist…………..

Jing Wan smelled the fragrant scent mix in the air. Although it was very very faint, it still made her suddenly feel nauseous, “Ugh……….”

“Miss……” Gong mama hurriedly grabbed Jing Wan, half-supporting her as she patted her back for her.

“Wan Wan………” Luo Old Madam also frantically went forward.

Jing Wan actually didn’t vomit anything out, but Noble Consort Su still backed up a little, and moreover, subconsciously used her handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose. However, immediately after, she also realized this wasn’t too appropriate, and thus nonchalantly put down her hand. Fortunately, there wasn’t any strange smell.

The Grand Elder Princess swept her a glance, coldly hooking the corner of her mouth, how pretentious.

Jing Wan wanted to vomit again, forcibly lifting her powerless hand, wanting to have Gong mama pushed aside.

Gong mama rather didn’t mind, gripping onto Jing Wan’s wrist. Just this touch, nearly made her heart jump out. Fortunately, over the years, she’d developed and perfected the ability to remain calm and collected at all times. She silently shifted her hand, her fingertips pressing onto Jing Wan’s pulse. She wasn’t wrong, this was indeed……….a slippery pulse^[1]! She’d checked Jing Wan’s pulse a couple of times already, and moreover, the manor doctor also had taken Jing Wan’s pulse, but there weren’t any signs of a slippery pulse earlier. Miss feeling nauseous was also sudden, all seeming to be after Noble Consort Su entered, or more precisely, should be after Ruan Fang Fei entered. Gong mama seamlessly shot a glance at Ruan Fang Fei, and just so happened to see her remove her hand from the embroidered pouch at her waist.

If she hadn’t inadvertently discovered, then the one that will be taking miss’s pulse next will be the imperial physician. Jin Qinwang’s soon-to-be wangfei is pregnant?! This wasn’t as simple as those previously who were forcibly tainted. One has to know, this marriage was voluntarily sought after by the Luo family. The enraged Le Cheng Emperor would only think that it was the Luo family wanting his son to be a convenient father. To dare scheme against his son, to dare scheme against the imperial family?! And he naturally won’t rationally go ponder over the questionable areas within. Perhaps he will just have miss immediately put to death. Never mind dying under tragic circumstances, she will even have to shoulder a tainted reputation. And the Luo family will also inevitably be implicated on the offense of deceiving the Emperor.

Such treacherous and malicious thoughts! Turns out, the real killer move was waiting here!

Gong mama pressed down the lingering fear in her heart. Thank goodness she discovered first, and thank goodness miss still had wangye shielding. Even if she didn’t notice, and miss gets diagnosed with a ‘slippery pulse’, wangye will still think of a way to reclaim miss’s innocence.

The one thing that Ruan Fang Fei completely didn’t anticipate was probably Li Hong Yuan’s care towards Jing Wan. He was actually her(JW) greatest backing.

“Jin Qinwang has arrived——-”

As soon as the voice dropped, Li Hong Yuan personally lifted the curtains and entered. His two eyes were filled with gloominess, and the dark currents around his body further appeared to be solidifying. Since his old man had already bestowed the marriage, he naturally didn’t have as many misgivings as before, directly walking up to the recliner. Seeing Jing Wan’s extremely poor complexion, with her eyes closed, seemingly as if on her last breath, at this moment, he truly wanted to have Ruan Fang Fei torn into a thousand pieces. When Noble Consort Su sent someone to call him, he actually had already learned of this matter, and rushed over in advance. “How is she?”

Gong mama had her back to the others, but Li Hong Yuan nevertheless saw very clearly, Gong mama pressing on the inner side of Jing Wan’s underarm, then secretly taking Jing Wan’s pulse and faintly relaxing a breath without being detected, and afterwards, helped Jing Wan lie back down. “Replying to wangye, still haven’t diagnosed the cause of illness.”

How could Li Hong Yuan not know this was Gong mama altering Wan Wan’s pulse. If it was just an ordinary pulse condition, even if a serious illness, it all wouldn’t need for her to go this far. His complexion was terrifyingly gloomy. His gaze shot towards the two imperial physicians that followed in behind him like arrows, “Quickly get over here!”

The two imperial physicians couldn’t help trembling, frantically going forward.

Towards Li Hong Yuan’s attitude, Noble Consort Su raised her eyebrow. Although her son’s temper has always been this way, and having been called over all of a sudden, for him to feel impatient and annoyed, this was all very normal, but he clearly also carried concern towards Luo third miss. Although this concern might not be very obvious, but this was already very surprising.

However, for Ruan Fang Fei, this feeling was completely different. He was the man she has cared about for that many years. In other areas, she perhaps still wasn’t that perceptive, but on the matter of feelings alone, it definitely wasn’t able to deceive her eyes. Last time, at the Grand Elder Princess Manor, she’d already vaguely sensed that he was seemingly a bit different towards Luo Jing Wan. Turns out, it wasn’t just her imagination.

How can he care about someone else, he, Li Hong Yuan, can only care about her, Ruan Fang Fei!

The demon lurking in the bottom of Ruan Fang Fei’s heart practically wanted to tear itself out, pouncing forward to have that hinderance torn into pieces! Just you wait, wait for your soon-to-be wangfei to be diagnosed with the slippery pulse, and see whether or not you will still care about her then!

Seemingly sensing Ruan Fang Fei’s gaze, Li Hong Yuan shot her a glance, his eyes ice cold without the least bit of warmth……….

Even Ruan Fang Fei all couldn’t help jolting inside. He wanted to kill her? He actually wanted to kill her?!

She had always thought that in his heart, she was special, yet turns out this wasn’t the case at all!

Li Hong Yuan immediately retracted his gaze. As a result, aside from Ruan Fang Fei, no one else sensed his killing intent.

The imperial physician carefully and attentively examined Jing Wan’s pulse, feeling puzzled inside. This pulse should be evil air entering the body, just it seems to be a bit too vicious. How come the cause of illness was said to be unknown? Not daring to determine just yet, he examined her other hand, and also looked over Jing Wan’s complexion. However, because Jing Wan’s status was special, he didn’t dare look too closely, and instead asked Gong mama some questions. After he finished examining, he then indicated for his ‘old rival’ that came with him to examine the pulse.

During this process, no one spoke, all the way until the second person finished examining, “Tell the truth as is.”

The two imperial physicians glanced at one another, hesitating for a moment, “Wangye, should be evil air entering the body. Just as this mama said, Luo third miss has always been healthy, thus it wasn’t detected previously. Just, suddenly coming to the waterside, with the humidity heavy, it most likely ended up triggering all at once. Moreover, it appears to be somewhat vicious, and additionally, the stomach might have also gotten cold.”

Impossible—–Ruan Fang Fei directly screamed out in her heart. Nonsense, nonsense, it was clearly a slippery pulse! Her face was somewhat distorted, but fortunately, she managed to restrain herself, and didn’t directly roar out. Ruan Fang Fei turned and left. She didn’t want to stay any longer. If she were to continue staying there, she really was afraid that she might lose control and do something irrational.

Li Hong Yuan stared at them for a moment, making the two of them drench in cold sweat.

“Prescribe medicine.”

This was like receiving a great pardon. The two discussed for a moment, and prescribed a relatively safe prescription.

Luo Old Madam still didn’t know the truth of the matter, only impatiently dispatching people to go to the nearby medicine store to fetch the medical ingredients.

Li Hong Yuan looked to Jing Wan, and shortly after, casted his gaze onto Noble Consort Su and the Grand Elder Princess who were sitting across from him, “Imperial aunt and consort mother can leave first, I’ll sit for a while longer.”

Since Jing Wan’s condition wasn’t as serious as it appeared to be, the Grand Elder Princess left rather resolutely, just asking to send her a message after Jing Wan’s situation improves. Noble Consort Su hesitated for a moment, but still left with her.

Lastly, Li Hong Yuan’s gaze met with Luo Old Madam’s.

Luo Old Madam knew of Li Hong Yuan’s feelings towards Jing Wan, so although being alone in a room together didn’t conform with etiquette, but in the end, they were still fiancees, thus it wasn’t as strict as with ordinary man and woman. In addition to Jin Qinwang’s character, even if known by others, no one would dare say anything. Thus, aside from Gong mama, Luo Old Madam had the other servants all called out.

After such an ordeal, Jing Wan was also somewhat tired. Although she didn’t fall asleep, her consciousness was still somewhat hazy.

Li Hong Yuan quietly stared at her, very much heartbroken. This time, it was his fault, he should’ve eliminated Ruan Fang Fei earlier. ——–Wan Wan, this is the last time. In the future, whoever dares to touch you, I’ll extinguish their entire clan.

Perhaps because Li Hong Yuan’s gaze was too intense, Jing Wan slowly opened her eyes. In that instant, two pairs of eyes intersected. The tenderness in Li Hong Yuan’s eyes deepened, and in addition to that rule breaking face of his, Jing Wan’s heartbeat uncontrollably sped up. Jing Wan immediately shut her eyes again.

Li Hong Yuan smiled, and Jing Wan missed out on another violently blooming peony.

[1] Slippery Pulse – This is the official english name for a kind of diagnosis in traditional chinese medical science based on pulse. If there are no other complications, then it can be determined as pregnancy.
