Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
chapter-371

After Li Hong Yuan finished sorting out He Shi Hai, he just returned to sleep with his wife. As for whether or not He Shi Hai will cry for his parents afterwards, that has nothing to do with him.

Perhaps because of the familiarity, the familiar air, when Li Hong Yuan approached, Jing Wan unconsciously squeezed into his embrace, her head resting on his arm, even muttering in her sleep, calling out ‘Ah Yuan’. Li Hong Yuan softly chuckled, moving his body and letting Jing Wan sleep more comfortably, then stroked her face and landed a kiss. At least, in this moment, Li Hong Yuan was exceptionally satisfied inside. The person that was at the tip of his heart was his legitimately wedded wife, and at this very moment, was lying safe and sound in his arm. This was more than enough to soothe all his negative emotions, and for the sake of preserving everything right now, even letting Jing Wan live even more free and unrestrained, he absolutely must hold great power, so that no one can comment.

Jing Wan woke up, but still haven’t opened her eyes, just rubbing against Li Hong Yuan’s shoulder, muttering a few words, “Ah Yuan…………”

“En?”

“Ah Yuan……….”

“En?”

“Ah Yuan.”

Li Hong Yuan turned his head and glanced at her, soundlessly smiling, “En, I’m here.”

“Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan………..”

Jing Wan just repeatedly called out again and again, not saying anything else, and Li Hong Yuan also just patiently responded again and again.

Don’t know how many times she called out, but Jing Wan seemingly was finally satisfied inside, afterwards recalling what she wanted ask the other day but forgot, for instance, regarding the incident of Zhong Qinwang Manor catching on fire.

“The big and small matters in the capital during this half a year’s time, later I will let someone put together and organize. When time comes, you can slowly look over.” When Li Hong Yuan said these words, in a place hidden from Jing Wan’s view, his gaze somewhat flickered. Truthfully speaking, although there was the factor of him deliberately letting someone lower the difficulty, but if someone really was able to accomplish it, it was indeed quite impressive.

“The He family’s matter, how do you plan on handling?”

Li Hong Yuan also didn’t hide, having the previous matter briefly explained.

Jing Wan although didn’t know how strong Gong Jiu’s medicine will be, but she was quite optimistic of his abilities. There was a kind of situation called an acute sense of pain will make the pain increase by countless times. The slightest cut or impact will all make a person feel painful to death. Perhaps Gong Jiu has this kind of medicine in hand. If it’s really like this, then can only light thirty-two candles for little tyrant He.

“Reportedly, in past years, it has always just been General He returning with some personal soldiers, and no family members, yet this year……………is there some bad rumors, or perhaps the He family themselves have problems, or someone scheming something?”

“Wan Wan thought too much, this isn’t the case. The He family, although have high meritorious accomplishments, but because the northeast has been relatively stable, not having any major wars, the He family’s influence naturally is limited, so far from the meritorious services overshadowing the master. And similarly, the He family defending the northeast, for the most part, doesn’t have any connection with the capital. Regardless how intense the fight for the throne becomes, it actually doesn’t have too much to do with them. No one from the He family is in the capital. Through the high skies and distant land, if someone wants to scheme against or rope in, for the most part, all considered strenuous and unrewarding. Unless they are certain that they have no hope for the throne and want to divide up Qi Yuan. Only as such would they want to rope in people such as the He family. However, the He family are loyal to the ruler and love the country, so won’t accept this kind of thing.”

That’s why, the He family was actually considered another kind of neutral faction.

“The reason why this many people from the He family returned this time is because there’s unusual activity in the northeast border. Perhaps prior to the spring of next year, it will break out into war. For the He family’s entire family to be guarding the northeast, it’s truly unfitting. If by chance something unfortunate………..For some people, if able to not lose, then just avoid as much as possible.”

“Then, this matter, it’s actually facilitated by you Ah Yuan?”

Li Hong Yuan vaguely responded with a muffled voice.

Jing Wan softly chuckled, “I know Ah Yuan’s skills are incredible, so must have obtained some accurate information, but the imperial court may not necessarily know. And even if they know, they probably won’t care very much either. After all, for many years, the northeast has always been stable, so how can such a big battle break out suddenly. If it really occurs, and have disastrous casualties, then perhaps they will even have all the blame pushed onto the He family’s head. The matter of army provisions, throughout history, have always very rarely been sufficient. The Northeast Army raised by the He family afraid won’t be an exception either. Once a large battle breaks out, even if an invincible army, without rations to support, they will also turn into sick cats. Since Ah Yuan can’t bear to see, then most likely didn’t just prepare to preserve a portion of the He family, right?” She knew about the things a certain someone secretly prepared in private.

“The one who knows me is Wan Wan.”

“Don’t give me a tall hat to wear.”

Li Hong Yuan lightly smiled, “What this husband said is true.” Additionally, in his past life, the imperial court really did have all the blame pushed onto the He family’s head, such as incompetence in supervising and so on. If not for the He family having all died off with just He Shi Hai alone left, perhaps they would even get pinned with a crime of treason against the country.

The He family although suffered disastrous casualties, practically getting annihilated, but the invading enemy also weren’t any better off. Otherwise, Qi Yuan wouldn’t have been able to clean up that easily afterwards, and perhaps, a large portion of Qi Yuan’s northeast territory would have fallen into the enemy country’s hands.

After getting up, her spirit was very good. As for little tyrant He, he inherently shouldn’t be considered bad. “More or less can have the person sent back.”

Since Jing Wan already said it like so, and Li Hong Yuan also didn’t have any other instructions, this matter naturally was just settled like this.

Just, the people of the He family ultimately were unable to enter Jin Qinwang Manor, and including He Zhen Wei, also weren’t able to meet with Li Hong Yuan. The whole family was exceptionally fretful, fearing that He Shi Hai will really just die in Jin Qinwang Manor. Although their rationality told them, no matter how lawless and out of control Jin Qinwang was, he probably won’t go as far as to do something like this, but having He Shi Hai crippled was very possible. He Shi Hai, at sixteen years old, was already a valiant general of the Northeast Army. If he becomes crippled, and even because of something this trivial, it inevitably would make one grieve a little.

Unable to meet the person, the He family could only return first.

Even though the He family didn’t want to let the matter become known to all, but in the entire capital, the ones that should know, for the most part all knew. Because this was a special period of time, no one stood out to ‘feel indignant at the injustice’ for the He family, and ‘criticize’ Li Hong Yuan with things like, even if young master He was in the wrong first, should still be punished according to the law, Jin Qinwang shouldn’t be abusing private proceedings, and so on. Moreover, setting aside the fact that Jin Qinwang mustn’t be provoked, this was an accident. Any movement of trying to overstep one’s authority perhaps will just get pinned with the label of forming cliques and engaging in corrupt dealings by the still angry Le Cheng Emperor.

“Let’s wait another night. If tomorrow, still unable to see the person, I will directly enter the palace to meet with his Majesty.” He Zhen Wei’s resolute face, at this time, was also shrouded with dense worry. “This unfilial son, this time, when he comes back, I will definitely break his two legs, so that prior to returning to the borders, he can’t climb down from the bed.”

Meeting the Emperor, if possible, the He family didn’t want to take this step. Le Cheng Emperor’s indulgence towards Jin Qinwang, exactly to what degree it reached, they also specially went to learn about. It was true that they were a military lineage, but it didn’t mean that they were all brutes, unable to understand the various ways of the world.

This night, the entire He family all didn’t sleep well. When using the morning meal the next day, He Zhen Wei decided to enter the palace, but prior to entering the palace, he still took a trip to Jin Qinwang Manor, seeing whether or not he can have the situation turned around. This trip turned out somewhat unexpected. From far away, he just saw Jin Qinwang Manor’s gates wide open, and a party of people came out from inside. If not He Shi Hai and his eight bodyguards, then who else? He Zhen Wei hurriedly sped up. When he got closer, Jin Qinwang Manor’s gates were closed again.

The other eight were still okay, their clothes a bit torn, even having some bloodstains on there, but their spirits all appeared pretty good. Only He Shi Hai alone was being supported by someone, appearing as if he was on his last breath. He Zhen Wei’s heart jumped. He has never seen his son like this before. Even in the past when he got his arms, legs, and ribs broken, he was still able to mess around full of energy.

He Zhen Wei’s body shook, his lips trembling, yet didn’t say anything more, “Return to the manor first, quick!”

Being out on the battlefield all year round, one naturally can’t lack army doctors. This time, the Northeast Army’s most skilled army doctor also returned with them.

A large group of people all circled around, anxiously waiting for the diagnosed result.

The eight soldiers looked to one another in dismay. They actually wanted to say, the little young master was actually fine, just, just………….Never mind, right now, they were simply unable to insert a word.

After the army doctor finished examining, his expression was somewhat strange. The people of the He family became even more restless because of this.

The army doctor slightly paused, “Does young master feel strange anywhere on the body, and all in which areas?”

He Shi Hai was angry but had no strength, “Pain, painful to death.” Heavens, for the entire afternoon and entire night, he has never been in this much pain before!

The people of the He family looked to one another in dismay. This bastard was the kind that right after fixing a displaced bone, will immediately just climb a tree to catch birds, and climb onto the roof to tear off the tiles, yet would actually cry out in pain?

“Aside from this?” The army doctor continued asking.

He Shi Hai rolled his eyes, understanding the army doctor’s meaning, “I’m perfectly fine, not crippled, not broken. Old man, could it be that you’re unable to figure out?”

The army doctor stroked his somewhat grizzled beard, the expression on his face also relaxing, “Looks like young master is indeed fine.” Turning around and facing the He family, “The young master indeed have some injuries on the body, but medicine has already been applied, and moreover, the effect was prominent. This old one will prescribe a bit more, and in a short amount of time, will be able to fully recover.”

Everyone greatly relaxed a breath, “Exactly what happened?” He Zhen Wei asked.

The guards finally opened their mouths, having the entire matter explained.

The expressions on the He family were very peculiar, “So, in other words, young brother was in so much pain that after shouting for too long, completely ran out of energy?”

“Fourth brother, shut up.” He Shi Hai flew into a rage out of humiliation.

This time, the entire He family all started laughing.
