Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife

Trouble? (2)

Li Hong Yuan casted her a glance, “Wan Wan is indirectly trying to plea for them?”

Hearing this, Jing Wan finally came to realization. Regardless of what, for today’s matter, regardless of whether it was the Jin Qinwang Manor’s guards, or the people looking after the rare beast park, aside from those that were involved, the rest can be considered to have failed their duties and certainly will need to receive punishment, just a matter of whether it was light or heavy.

“Just hope that once things are clear, the unrelated people, wangye can treat with leniency.”

“Didn’t one already let someone pass on the word to you previously? This matter will be given to you to handle, exactly how they should be dealt with, you have the final say.”

With the matter involving the Bai family, what can she do? Alright, the people of the Jin Qinwang Manor, she can still deal with. The real culprit, they can go through the motions and randomly investigate, but the people internally, exactly who was traitorous, they absolutely must investigate clearly. Regardless of the reason, they must be punished severely. This bit, Jing Wan firmly believed that they will be able to find out.

“What’s next? What should we do? The estate, I’ve already let someone temporarily seal off.”

“We invited people here today to race horses, so what else can be done?” Li Hong Yuan unconcernedly said.

Jing Wan was helpless, “The person that died, for better or worse, was your younger cousin.” To continue the horse race, wouldn’t that just be jabbing certain people’s lungs?

“So what? Never mind a younger cousin that was separated by three layers of relations, even if a brother, this prince would still continue on as usual. Even if finding it unpleasant to the eyes, there’s nothing they can do about it. In any case, not many find this prince pleasant to the eyes.”

“Fine, fine, fine, as long as you’re happy. Horse racing, continue horse racing.” In any case, there was already a corresponding plan for this matter. In the end, nothing will happen to a certain someone, so there was naturally no need to worry.

As for the young master Bai that very likely died under tragic circumstances, just because he was Scholar Bai’s only son, his value rather high, becoming the unlucky bastard, Jing Wan inwardly laughed in irony. Under the foot of the emperor, among the overt fights and hidden schemes of the battle for throne, and also through the wind and rain in the various upper class courtyards, the people that died tragically were too numerous to count, can one even be able to take pity on them all?

Jing Wan sorted out her emotions. Standing up, she instructed a few words to the people by her side.

Very soon, everyone in the estate just heard the news. The tiger appearing and someone dying, this for the most part was already known. Originally, they were already alarmed, originally thinking that Jin Qinwang and Jin Wangfei afraid will have to see out the guests, but they never thought that they would be this open-minded, to actually plan on continuing the horse race? Perhaps, this wasn’t being open-minded, but rather cold-blooded, not having human life taken seriously.

However, some people also felt that this was Jin Qinwang covertly having them confined in the estate. Unknown as to whether it was due to real fear, or because of some ulterior motive, some people just began making a fuss, wanting to leave the estate and return to the capital.

However, the person they were up against was the living Enma. If switch with someone else, they perhaps can still win, but the living Enma? Before even starting, you would’ve already surrendered. That’s why, it was just making a fuss, and in the end, they will still obediently settle down.

Li Hong Ming and them had other thoughts in mind. The current Scholar Bai not only was their imperial father’s cousin, but he was also once their imperial father’s study companion, their relationship close, the feelings deep. Above him, there was also the tactful maternal uncle that helped him ascend the throne, as well as the birth mother that has already passed away. Three layers of feelings stacked on top of one another, how many people can compare? Believe that even Li Hong Yuan would certainly understand the severity of this. As such, how is Li Hong Yuan still able to remain calm and collected? Was he certain that imperial father won’t do anything to him? Or was there something in this matter that they were unaware of?

Since Jin Qinwang wanted to continue horse racing, everyone could only turn towards the racetracks again.

TN: All

Clearly everything was still the same, the lowest bid going even higher, so it ought to be even more lively and exciting. Just, the great majority of the people, no matter what, were all unable to lift their spirits. Perhaps it was the fear towards the ferocious beast———the tiger may have died, but who knows whether or not another beast will appear. Or perhaps it was just contemplating the incident in itself, having no room to think of other things.

Just, these things didn’t really affect the small children, and their attention was also relatively easy to divert. That’s why, it was merely the second match, yet they’ve already began waving their hands and cheering.

Perhaps getting infected by them, the atmosphere gradually warmed up.

When the Bai family received the news, young master Bai’s own mother directly just fainted. After finally waking up, she hastily sent people to inform Scholar Bai, and then hurriedly rushed to Li Hong Yuan’s estate. And Scholar Bai more or less also arrived at the same time, still wearing the official garments.

Hearing the deafening cheers and clamor, sounding extremely enthusiastic, the Bai couple’s eyes instantly reddened, their heart endlessly hating, the corners of their eyes wishing to split open. Their only son was gone, yet these people were like as if nothing happened, playing around this happily!

“My lord, my lord………..” Young master Bai’s mother heartbrokenly cried, practically not wishing to live anymore.

“Madam don’t worry, regardless of who, I will definitely seek justice for our son!” Scholar Bai gritted his teeth, appearing as if he absolutely won’t leave the matter as is.

When Li Hong Yuan received the news, he actually still gave a bit of face, personally going to meet.

Scholar Bai, on normal days, that was being extremely smooth and sly. Towards these princes, that was all acting deferential towards, completely not treating any one differently. This while, seeing Li Hong Yuan, the smooth and sly attitude of the past was completely gone. It was just like looking at his greatest enemy.

What kind of person was Li Hong Yuan? He wasn’t one to welcome people with a smiling face normally to begin with, and towards those that gave him such a face, it naturally was even more impossible for him to speak nicely. If not for the fact that this biao-uncle’s only son dying in his estate, he more or less had a bit of responsibility, it would be strange for him to even put up with him. If it was someone else, even if it was his responsibility, still don’t count on him doing anything.

And Scholar Bai, seeing Li Hong Yuan this indifferent, the anger and hatred inside rose again, no longer concealing his emotions, “Wangye acting as such, are you not afraid of meeting with retribution?”

Li Hong Yuan looked to the other party, his attitude nonchalant, his expression blank, “It’s not like your son was killed by this prince, so why should this prince be scared of retribution? Speaking of which, for such an outcome to come about today, you and your father just don’t have any responsibility? You all not only want the benefits, but also want the reputation. And precisely because you’re overly perfect on the surface, winning imperial father’s good feelings endlessly, for the people that want to deal with this prince, because under normal circumstances, they’re unable to do anything, who else would be more useful than using your Bai family as the raft? So long as your Bai family has a bit of a situation, wearing down imperial father’s good feelings a little, then even if wanting to use the Bai family to frame this prince, it still won’t shake this prince’s roots, so then, who would still touch your Bai family for no reason? Do you all not understand the importance of the golden mean? Since you have taken things to the extreme, then you should at least have some awareness.”

Scholar Bai’s teeth loudly grinded, truly hating that he can’t devour Li Hong Yuan alive.

Li Hong Yuan sneered, “Someone come, take Scholar Bai to go see his son. ———-Scholar Bai can do as you see fit, this prince won’t accompany.” With that said, he directly brushed his sleeves and left.

He’d long lost half his rationality from the pain of losing his beloved son, and now, getting provoked by Li Hong Yuan as such, his entire person was all about to go mad! His two eyes were blood red, just like a malevolent spirit vowing to take revenge, “Li Hong Yuan, Li Hong Yuan……..” The true culprit, he won’t let off, but he absolutely won’t let off Li Hong Yuan either. To trample on others this casually, how dare he, how dare he………….

Seeing their son’s bloody remains, Scholar Bai’s madam directly fainted, and Scholar Bai similarly felt everything go dark before his eyes, his head and eyes spinning. Ruthlessly biting his tongue, forcibly drawing out blood, he finally managed to stay conscious.

The coroner naturally wasn’t able to examine the body, and young master Bai’s body got taken away directly. This was also within expectation.

When Li Hong Yuan returned, his brothers saw that his complexion was seemingly unchanged. Unsure as to exactly what happened, they felt unbearably itchy inside, each and every one all unable to sit still, wanting to return to the capital.
