Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife

Jealous, Properly Hold Tight (1)

Perhaps because they suddenly met without warning, Chen Zheng Min was somewhat loss for what to do, yet no matter what, was unable to shift his gaze from her. Originally, he thought that time will be able to have this yearning that should not continue to exist whittle away until near exhaustion, but after seeing the person again, he suddenly discovered, never mind whittling away, it was clearly deeply-rooted, even forming into a large tree.

This sudden eruption actually had the momentum of somewhat going out of control. He foolishly stared at her, unconsciously approaching step by step, seemingly wanting to come even closer, his breathing carrying the scent of her body fragrance.

Jing Wan naturally noticed first thing that he was somewhat off, silently retreating a step.

Never mind that right now she was a soon-to-be qin-wangfei, even if she didn’t have an engagement at hand, she still ought to maintain distance with outside males. As for ‘outside male’ Jin Qinwang, that was just someone that didn’t act according to common sense, his words and actions never controlled by others. Jing Wan sometimes also spurned herself inside, but also had no choice but to admit, after the numerous intimate interactions again and again, she still gradually got used to Jin Qinwang’s way of doing things. As long as it wasn’t making a scene in public under numerous eyes, she also just let him do as he pleased.

That’s why, she was also just a ‘take advantage of the weak and fear the strong’ type. Of course, if not for being fiancees, this layer of identity, Jing Wan would probably fight until ‘either the fish dies or the net breaks’, absolutely refusing to let a certain living Enma touch her. However, in the end, she wasn’t really a locally born and bred ancient person. The bottom line that she should maintain, she will maintain, but sometimes, she was still much more open-minded than ordinary young ladies.

“Older cousin Min………” Jing Wan smiled, curtsying to greet him.

Chen Zheng Min was like as if suddenly getting woken, quivering all over. He somewhat stiffly stood in a place several steps away from Jing Wan. Looking to Jing Wan, he restrained the impulse in his heart, somewhat forcibly tugging the corner of his mouth, “Has younger cousin…………been well recently?”

“Many thanks older cousin, I’m very well. Rather, it’s older cousin, having gone out on an assignment this time, traveling in the wind and sun, that has gotten quite a bit darker. However, from the looks of it, also a little sturdier.” And according to Jing Wan’s estimation, probably also grew taller. At this age of his, quite a few were all still vigorously growing. As such, this wasn’t all that surprising either. Precisely the time where the youngster changes into a young man.

Chen Zheng Min just felt his throat unbearably dry. Counting the days, prior to him leaving the capital, it’d already been a very long period of time since he last saw her, in addition to these last two months, she actually also grew taller, her figure also even more graceful. There was actually a kind of ‘as if separated by a lifetime’ feeling. However, recalling the joy from that period of time when he was engaged to her, it was clear as if it was yesterday. “Younger cousin is actually increasingly……….

“Little sister Wan……….”

“Elder sister-in-law.” Jing Wan followed the voice and looked over, afterwards quickly walking over, and very naturally coiling around her arm.

“Greetings older cousin-in-law.” Chen Zheng Min hurried greeted, his gaze that was on Jing Wan also retracted, his gentleman manner very prominent.

Sun Yi Jia slightly turned her body, just accepting half the etiquette, and then returned the courtesy, “Younger cousin-in-law is too polite.” Sun Yi Jia silently sized up Chen Zheng Min. Just now, she’d suddenly witnessed, so how could she not know, this flower-snatcher (third place candidate in imperial exam) was the same as her fifth brother, having deeply-rooted feelings towards little sister Wan. Worrying that he would say something inappropriate, she thus somewhat rudely interrupted his words. “Younger cousin-in-law must be exhausted from the trip. This visit, is it coming to pay respect to grandmother? Grandfather isn’t at home at present.”

Under the current circumstances, Chen Zheng Min was also truly awkward, “Naturally it’s to come pay respect to paternal great-aunt.”

Sun Yi Jia nodded, “Today, my husband has yet to go out. Knowing that you’ve returned, he’ll certainly be very happy.”

“I also haven’t seen older cousin in a very long time, so today, it’s unavoidable to drink a few cups. When time comes, hoping older cousin-in-law won’t blame.” In the end, he has already experienced some affairs of life, so he very quickly became calm and easy-going again, and when speaking, carried a bit of jest.

“What are you saying, you two having a deep friendship is a great fortune.”

TN: All

After a few more words of idle chatter, Chen Zheng Min took his leave to go pay his respect to Luo Old Madam.

And when Chen Zheng Min left, Sun Yi Jia rather teasingly looked to Jing Wan. Really can’t tell, little sister Wan even has the potential of a femme fatal. These outstanding men have all fallen head first in her hands one after another.

Jing Wan was a bit uneasy under her gaze, “What are you looking at, what’s there to look at.”

“This is flying into a rage out of embarrassment?” In the beginning, when she and Jing Bo’s engagement had just settled, she didn’t get teased by her any less. Such a good opportunity to ‘take revenge’, it’d be a waste to not use. Of course, she also knew that Jing Wan won’t really get angry.

However, when it comes to face, she really wasn’t Jing Wan’s opponent.

In an instant, Jing Wan smilingly stuck her hands to her waist, “Can’t be helped, I’m loved by all, flowers blooming in my presence.”

Sun Yi Jia suffered a crushing defeat, “These words, if you have the ability, say it in front of, in front of……….” She stuck her head in the direction of the main courtyard.

“Don’t have the ability.” Jing Wan shamelessly admitted.

Sun Yi Jia was extremely speechless. Forget it, bickering with her, she has never won before.

However, this kind of joke will just end here. A share of true feelings, regardless of the outcome, all shouldn’t be brought out to be joked with.

Just, Sun Yi Jia probably won’t know, at night, someone will help her ‘take revenge’.

Something that no longer belongs to him ultimately will never belong to him. Regardless of for whose sake, he should all have these feelings put down, and if unable to put down, then just bury, and bury them deeply. Chen Zheng Min wiped his face, raising a shallow smile and entering the main courtyard.

Afterwards, Jing Wan no longer ran into him in the Luo family’s courtyard. Reportedly after reaching the imperial summer residence, he just tidied up a little and came to the Luo family’s place. Afterwards, after just speaking a few words with Luo Jing Bo, someone just hurriedly came to invite him, his Majesty summoning him for an audience.

The Chen family, in these last few years, have been declining, but the courtyard they’d purchased was still present. Although because of rules and regulations, a portion of it got sold off, no longer as big as in the very beginning, Chen Zheng Min as the Chen family’s descendant, coming to this place and needing to stay for a while, it was still doable. Even if he didn’t have his own family’s courtyard, after getting summoned by the Emperor, he still will have a place to stay. The area surrounding the imperial residence was actually built into an ‘inn’. It can be seen, various aspects have all been thoroughly considered.

Le Cheng Emperor summoned the main personnels of those that had traveled to the west, including his two sons, four talented youths, as well as the accompanying ministers. This assignment, ninth wangye held the title of the imperial envoy, so naturally all things were headed by him. Although on this entire matter, majority of the times, he also just listened to the side, but often times, this was enough.

Just as Li Hong Yuan had predicted, after he’d captured the main offender of the insurrection, and the originally two imperial envoys becoming one, and although tenth wangye still followed along, but since he didn’t have any speaking authority, he naturally couldn’t bicker with his older brother, and as long as these two brothers don’t take a wrong turn, in addition to Luo Pei Shan’s reasonable deployment of personnels, to want to adequately resolve the problem this time, for the most part, it was certain to succeed.

Ninth wangye, after receiving Le Cheng Emperor’s vigorous praising, was momentarily in high spirits, unusually pleased with himself.

Tenth wangye although resented out of jealousy inside, didn’t show it on his face either. During this trip, he was already used to seeing this ninth imperial brother’s face, and because prior to leaving, he’d received many tasks entrusted onto him, he was thus able to repeatedly endure. Once one endured enough, one seemingly just didn’t take it seriously anymore. Moreover, he believed that along the way, he’s also learned some things. While Le Cheng Emperor was praising others, he was also able to face with a smile. At least, on the surface, one was unable to make out the slightest discontent.
