Once Jing Wan got on the Jin Qinwang Manor horse carriage, she also no longer continued maintaining her bearing, lazily slanting her body, letting Qing Ju use the prepared warm water in the carriage to have the bloodstains on her hand washed clean.

Truthfully speaking, her own husband’s timing in coming to Yucui Palace was truly a bit too coincidental. What Le Cheng Emperor suddenly has other important matters to attend to, so he just came to Yucui Palace first, and afterwards just having a series of unpleasant things happening. Jing Wan felt, that so called important matter, the possibility of it being something her own husband arranged was quite big. Thinking to here, her heart somewhat warmed. Although facing Noble Consort Su, she wasn’t scared, but being worried about by someone, fearing that she would suffer a loss, that kind of feeling was still quite pleasant.

As for what the situation was in Yucui Palace right now, Jing Wan didn’t have the mind to care.

After returning to the manor, Jing Wan first went to see Fu Rong. The wound on her face has already been treated, and because it was wrapped up, one was unable to see the specific condition.

Jing Wan looked to Fu Rong, unsure what to say. Towards Fu Rong, this was practically an absurd disaster.

Fu Rong rather didn’t care all that much, instead consoling Jing Wan, “Wangfei, don’t worry, this servant is fine, really. In any case, this servant, in this lifetime, doesn’t plan on marrying, so even if injuring the face, so be it, no need to mind. Without this face, perhaps can even save some troubles.”

For Fu Rong to consider not marrying, it actually wasn’t that strange either. After all, she had that kind of past, but, “In the entire capital, it’s just our wangye giving other people trouble. Even his Majesty all have to yield. As someone of Jin Qinwang Manor, even if momentarily yielding outside, there’s still no reason to injury one’s own body. This kind of stupid thing, in the future, don’t do again.”

Fu Rong was slightly shocked, and afterwards softly smiled as she nodded. The feeling of purely being protected was actually really pleasant. Even if having injured her face and ruined her beauty, Fu Rong still felt the present was very good.

Shortly after, Jing Wan looked for Gong Jiu, letting him lighten the scar on Fu Rong’s face as much as possible.

Gong Jiu promised that he will do everything he can.

Afterwards, Jing Wan went to bathe and change, switching to a relatively light and casual attire. The time she’d returned was much earlier than anticipated. Under normal circumstances, Le Cheng Emperor and Noble Consort Su would always keep them for the meal. Now, whether or not Noble Consort Su can still eat was all unknown. And whether or not Li Hong Yuan will return to use the afternoon meal, right now, was also unknown, although Jing Wan wasn’t really worried.

Soon after, she just began preparing the things for returning to the maiden home tomorrow, and also the things for the Grand Elder Princess Manor afterwards. These two places, she was bounded to visit. As for the rest, those friends she made prior to marrying, because of status, right now, she can no longer casually visit. However, the things still need to be sent over. After waiting a few days, she can then send out invitations and let them come to Jin Qinwang Manor for a sit. Of course, there was also the other various wang manors, not just her husband’s brothers, but also the imperial relatives, as well as the imperial princes and princesses that were sill residing in the palace. Also, her own maternal uncle’s family has most likely also taken root now in the capital, so similarly can’t leave out. There were a lot of things that needed to be sent out. Dividing up like this, the things bought in Jiangnan actually weren’t considered a lot either.

The things for the princes and princesses in the palace, Jing Wan wasn’t considering personally handling. This area, Gong mama was actually more familiar than her. Without needing for her to worry over in the slightest, it can just be taken care of appropriately.

Rather, about an hour later, Noble Consort Su sent someone to deliver some things. Aside from her own hair ornaments that she’d threw down in Yucui Palace, there were also other things, stating that Jin Wangfei had given her Highness Noble Consort good things, her Highness was very happy, so these were all bestowed by her Highness.

Once the person left, Jing Wan amusedly laughed. Noble Consort Su nearly got angered to death, yet still needed to bleed good things, and this loss, she was destined to suffer. As for that ruby hair ornament of hers, originally, she thought that Noble Consort Su, for the sake of venting her anger, would directly have it destroyed. Now, seeing it completely intact, she was actually a bit surprised.

“Place it together with the rest, and store away. In the future, won’t use anymore.”

Having a super wealthy husband, and moreover, her own private assets were also counted in the ten millions, Jing Wan right now was also wealthy without the slightest pressure, and more or less about to reach the level of viewing money as dirt.

Nearing noon, Eunuch Mu returned to the manor. The living Enma, as expected, got kept behind by Le Cheng Emperor. However, according to Eunuch Mu’s explanation, the official matters seemingly were long done with, taking less time than expected. Le Cheng Emperor very much threw a tantrum, and the things on the imperial desk for the most part all got smashed.

Li Hong Yuan surprisingly consoled a few words. For Le Cheng Emperor, how rare was this. After all, in the past, he has only ever been violently angered by this son. Le Cheng Emperor’s heart instantly just eased a lot. Afterwards, the conversation unconsciously just turned onto Imperial Noble Consort. Don’t know whether or not it was because our Jin Qinwang had gotten hurt by his foster mother, when mentioning his birth mother, he was exceptionally quiet. Even if Le Cheng Emperor was wholeheartedly reminiscing his beloved woman, he still noticed his son’s abnormality in hindsight.

As the father, he naturally needed to show concern. After all, this was the child born between him and his most beloved woman. This was the crystal of their love.

Yet in the end, Li Hong Yuan just coldly and indifferently brushed over it.

Le Cheng Emperor although wasn’t considered a highly intelligent person, but for majority of the times, his IQ was still there. He didn’t ask anymore. In any case, when this son had just entered the palace, he wasn’t like this, so certainly must have encountered something in the palace. Later, he’ll just let someone investigate.

Jing Wan naturally had no objection towards her own husband acting out a play of ‘benevolent father and filial son’ with his imperial father. As for whether that scene was father and son deeply bonding, or Li Hong Yuan intentionally or otherwise suffocating Le Cheng Emperor, that further didn’t have anything to do with her.

In the afternoon, Jing Wan just began distributing the gifts, rolling out carriage upon carriage, in order according to status, sending out altogether to the various families.

For the entire afternoon, the entire street outside Jin Qinwang Manor was all exceptionally lively. And from the neighboring residences, quite a few servants, and even masters, all came out to watch.

Speaking of which, many people all knew that Jin Qinwang was rich, but in the past, regardless which family or matter, he would all send gifts the same as others, neither heavy nor light. This time, having such a big hand, definitely was a first. Perhaps some would think of conspiracy theories, but more would assume that because Jin Qinwang Manor now had a female master, the social dealings naturally will further be attentively looked after. Moreover, everyone all knew that Jin Qinwang had bought numerous things back from Jiangnan, so to be generously gifting out like that seemingly was also something naturally and expected.

When Li Hong Yuan exited the palace, he just happened to see the things that were about to be sent into the palace for the imperial princes and princesses, and just casually asked for the gift list for a look. Although in Li Hong Yuan’s eyes, perhaps it wasn’t worth mentioning, but it was actually quite generous. He randomly flipped through a few. Although the things each had their differences, the value was practically equivalent. Li Hong Yuan was very certain, these things will make people pleased, but at the same time, will also offend some people. It goes without saying, in the inner palace, every person’s degree of favor was different, so the treatment received certainly will be different as well. Just imagine, those that were favored learning that their things were the same as those not favored, how can they possibly feel balanced inside? But, because it was all good things, and may not necessarily be frequently seen even in the palace, they won’t be willing to smash, and won’t be willing to put aside, using without any mental pressure, but on the inside, they will carry resentment.

And for those that weren’t favored, they will probably be grateful towards his wife, else they perhaps will only be able to obtain a bit of good things when they marry or take a wife.

These things, would his wife not be able to think of? Li Hong Yuan believed, she certainly knew, but this way, treating everyone with equal favor, was clearly better. Moreover, even if certain people were unhappy, they still can only keep it bottled up inside. They can’t say anything and further can’t do anything. Complaining to the living Enma, was it looking for a beating, or looking for a beating?

Li Hong Yuan had the gift list thrown back, returning to the manor. Having not seen his own wife in over half a day, this made him very annoyed right now.
