Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 296.2: Follow-up Arrangements

Jing Wan tugged the corner of her mouth. She knew it can only be this way, but her heart was unable to settle down for the time being.

“As for self-injury, this kind of thing………”

“Wangye, wangfei, there’s trouble, Sir Yu and them……….” Qing Ju hurriedly rushed in. One has to know, Qing Ju, after following Jing Wan into Jin Qinwang Manor, has restrained herself as much as possible, just fearing that her impudence and recklessness would make her own miss lose face. At this time, being this panicked, it can be seen, it wasn’t a small matter.

“What’s wrong?” Jing Wan promptly asked.

“Sir Yu, and also the other guards, started fighting, and got, got injured.”

Jing Wan was first startled. Why would they start fighting for no reason? Never mind Yu Zhong Qing, even Li Hong Yuan’s bodyguards, which one wasn’t a restrained and self-disciplined person. But thinking again, something was amiss, “Where’s Elder Pei, was he also present?” As soon as she thought of a possibility, Jing Wan’s complexion turned exceptionally unsightly.

For things that she was unable to decide on, and even worrying that she will influence Ah Yuan’s decision, he just decided on his own, directly seeking out the people below. Yu Zhong Qing’s duties this time was protecting Jin Qinwang, and the other bodyguards, for them, their life wasn’t theirs to begin with. If the master requires it, never mind deliberately causing a bit of injury, even if sacrificing their life, they still won’t bat an eye. That old thing was precisely certain of this bit, thus dared to blatantly go look for them after she left.

As for the bare minimum respect of a younger generation towards an elder, in this moment, also got strangled cleanly into nothing. Jing Wan hastily went out.

Li Hong Yuan rather didn’t stop her, slowly getting up, even tidying his clothes that didn’t have any wrinkles, before lifting his foot and following her out.

Jing Wan’s speed was very quick. Her original intention was stopping Yu Zhong Qing and the others, but by the time she rushed over, it was too late. The chaotic battle had already ended. That’s right, precisely a chaotic battle, the kind where one attacked without blocking. After all, only by having a real fight can one create realistic wounds. Ten some people, although wearing relatively dark colored clothes, but because seeped with blood, then adding on that large wound sliced open by the blade, it couldn’t be more obvious.

Jing Wan covered her eyes, unable to say words of blame, because this completely wasn’t their fault to begin with. In their eyes, doing this was only natural and expected.

“Qing Ju, go have the best cut wound medicine brought out. ———As for you all, quickly go treat the wound.”

“Wangfei, in this water fort, bringing out the best cut wound medicine isn’t realistic.” Pei clan leader stroked his beard and said.

“Enough, wounds from a few days ago, to this day, still not having the slightest signs of improvement, that is called unrealistic.” Jing Wan coldly stated, “And also you all, did you all even forget who is your master? An outsider, letting you all do something, you just do it?”

The various bodyguards blanked. Indeed, regardless of what is done in the end, it all should be master with the final say. They shouldn’t have, because of feeling that doing this was correct, in addition to seeing Yu Zhong Qing’s decision, just subconsciously followed after in doing so. They looked to one another, successively kneeling down on one knee, “Asking master to punish.”

“Have this debt recorded for now. Once this assignment is finished, carry out the punishment after returning to the capital. However, I hope that something similar won’t happen again, and that this is the last time.” Jing Wan said, not allowing for comment.

“Yes.”

Pei clan leader was watching from the side, yet was very discontent. A woman, reprimanding her own husband’s bodyguards, what did this count as? How was this just overstepping one’s authority that simple. “Wangfei……..”

Jing Wan’s eyes coldly swept over, “When this wangfei is speaking, you a mere commoner also dare to interrupt? This is your large influential clan’s etiquette and propriety? This is your large influential clan’s honor and humility? Calling you elder is nothing more than seeing that you’re of the older generation, yet you actually rely on old age to put on the airs of an elder, criticizing and ordering around this wangfei!”

The Pei clan leader got choked up quite seriously by Jing Wan. As someone, who was always ‘unflinching before a collapsing mountain’, at this time, that face was all somewhat unable to hold up. Although what she said was all true, and although the Pei clan’s situation right now was unstable, but there has still never been anyone that dared to speak to him like this before. In Jiangnan’s four prefectures and twenty-eight fu, even people like governor-generals and inspector generals, when meeting him, would all be polite and courteous. And now, after getting his face ripped and thrown on the ground by a little girl of his grandchildren’s generation, for him to still be able to be indifferent would be strange. But, he simply was unable to find a way to refute.

In terms of status, she was a wangfei that exceeded the ranks^[1], and he was indeed just a commoner————-This was also something he detested the most. In terms of family hierarchy, he also wasn’t her elder. Even if he was Jin Qinwang’s maternal grandfather by blood, but in name, he didn’t have the slightest relation. Her not respecting him, what can he do? It was true that Qi Yuan had the tradition of respecting the elderly, but this wasn’t a justification for lecturing a qin-wangfei.

Li Hong Yuan engrossingly watched. What’s that, his wife’s look in showing off her might really was extraordinarily attractive. However, this wife of his has always been good-tempered. To be able to have her pissed off to this extent really was rare. This Pei clan leader perhaps was even the first. En, need to record another mark. As for his wife angering his ‘maternal grandfather’ to death, what was that, it had nothing to do with him at all.

Li Hong Yuan went forward, consolingly patting Jing Wan’s back, “Don’t worry, there are people below that are proficient in medicine. Just external wounds, so won’t cause serious consequences.” It was clear, thanks to the indirect understanding in the preceding few years, plus interacting every day after marrying, towards Jing Wan’s mentality, Li Hong Yuan still had it grasped quite accurately.

Jing Wan somewhat relaxed a breath, nodding her head, “Some things, I’ll go arrange.” Right now, she didn’t want to see this Pei clan leader in the slightest.

“Go then.” Li Hong Yuan permitted.

“Towards women, indulging a little is fine, but excessively spoiling, they will certainly rely on favor and become arrogant. Wangye………….”

“This prince is happily willing, so what does it have to do with an outsider?” Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly interrupted him, “Wangfei was hoping that this prince can have one’s close relative’s sincere treatment, thus would put down her status, giving you a little respect. Could it be that you thought your so called head of the Pei clan position just made her concede? People that believe themselves to be infallible, this prince has actually seen quite a few of. What this prince enjoys is this heart of hers, unable to bear ruining her spirits, thus didn’t say anything. Did you think that this prince’s silence just meant tacitly approving? Towards blood relations, this prince perhaps has expectations, but someone like you, viewing benefit above all else, wholeheartedly wanting to exploit this prince, you still count on this prince to obediently offer oneself up? Who is stupider than who? Once everything is arranged, just get lost however far you can get lost to. If you make her unhappy again, don’t blame this prince for letting the entire Pei clan all be unhappy.”

Li Hong Yuan’s words unexpectedly didn’t make the Pei clan leader have that great of a reaction, “Wangye’s care towards wangfei really is somewhat unexpected.” These words, however, had a bit of hard to conceal sarcasm. In his eyes, this was still putting on an act, and the purpose, from beginning to end, was still just that. However, some words, since stabbed through, was also good. The Pei clan leader also didn’t plan on using the so called familial love to achieve his goal. He ultimately firmly believed, there are no forever enemies and friends, just forever benefits. “However, wangye ‘destroying the bridge after crossing it^[2]‘, was also very well done. Based on your care towards wangfei, you certainly won’t order the people below to injury themselves, right? This old man became the evil one, and helped wangye take care of it.”

“So what? Even counting on this prince to bear the favor?”
