Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 81.3: The Cause, Li Hong Yuan’s Dark History

Towards Jin Qinwang’s rumors, Jing Wan didn’t understand them very well, but just from that bit she knew, it was more than enough to determine that this person definitely wasn’t some good match. She also understood, a lot of things were actually exaggerated, but for the twenty-two year old Jin Qinwang to not have a single proper female master in his manor was already very telling of the problem. Furthermore, those things that he did to her that night when he was injured, for the most part, can already conclude that in his heart, he still had a piece of white moonlight, a pearl at the tip of his heart. She was clear about a man’s inner contradiction. The more one could not obtain, the more one wanted to obtain. Moreover, what if that woman appears again? Once the heart leaned towards a certain woman, then it will become impervious to reason. Marrying such a person, afraid even wanting to nestle in the rear court and live out one’s own days without caring about anything else would be difficult. In order to clear the position for that person in his heart, who knows what kind of insane things he’ll do.

(T/N: My first time hearing the expression of a past lover being called ‘piece of white moonlight’)

If Li Hong Yuan were to learn Jing Wan’s thoughts, don’t know if he will spit blood or not? However, Jing Wan’s last thought really wasn’t wrong in the least. A certain living Enma, for the sake of having the di wife position left completely untainted for her, precisely did do a lot of insane things.

Jing Wan held onto Sun Yi Jia’s shoulders, not knowing how to comfort her. Perhaps, in her heart, the thing she was most heartbroken about wasn’t being bestowed to Jin Qinwang in marriage, but rather her father’s actions. “Big sister Jia, Jin Qinwang perhaps isn’t that unbearable.” Jing Wan said against her will.

“Not that unbearable?” Yuan Qiao Qiao suddenly got up, “My good younger cousin, that’s because you aren’t in the capital and don’t know Jin Qinwang. Let me tell you, that person, Jin Qinwang, is vicious and callous, eats human flesh, drinks human blood, corrupt and lustful, even disregarding male or female, warm or cold. As long as they’re a beauty fancied by him, regardless whether they’re good or bad, he’ll all want to get his hands on. In the capital, there’s even a separate residence where he specially keeps beauties. Forget sisters, I heard there were even mother-daughter pairs inside. And precisely because he fancies married women, it’s not just once or twice where he’s caused families to fall to ruins. Yet he’s also fickle and cold-blooded. His pampering towards each and every beauty will never exceed seven days. After that, these beauties’ endings….getting gifted away by him perhaps is the best ending for them…….”

“Qiao Qiao, shut up!” Because Yuan Qiao Qiao had raised her voice, she attracted the attention of the madams at the other side. Hearing Yuan Qiao Qiao’s words, Luo Rong Hui nearly fainted from anger. She hurriedly rushed over, “Are these words something you, a young lady, can say? Is Jin Qinwang someone you can say nonsense about? You don’t want to live anymore?” She directly jabbed her forehead in anger.

“Where am I saying nonsense? This is clearly something everyone all knows, so why can’t I say? If he, Jin Qinwang, dares to do it, then would he still be scared of others saying it?”

“You’re still talking!?” Luo Rong Hui was itching to cover Yuan Qiao Qiao’s mouth.

“I….keh, ke ke ke…..” Probably because she was too worked up, Yuan Qiao Qiao violently began coughing.

“Sigh, my little ancestor, quickly calm down for a bit.” Luo Rong Hui hurriedly went to pat her back. She took the water that the servant girl handed over and helped Yuan Qiao Qiao take a sip.

Jing Wan was also quite shocked by the information Yuan Qiao Qiao bursted out. All the way until she heard Yuan Qiao Qiao’s coughing sound did she finally return to her senses and quickly went forward to calm her. “Alright, alright, I understand, for now, calm down.”

However, what they didn’t know was that Yuan Qiao Qiao’s words were coincidentally heard word for word by a certain bored Jin Qinwang that had nothing to do and thus came to eavesdrop. Only separated by a few flower bushes, Li Hong Yuan’s complexion was black like the bottom of a pot. He nearly lost his rationale and almost directly went over to have Yuan Qiao Qiao choked to death.

Eunuch Mu, as well as the guards that were hidden in the dark, all shrunk their necks and pretended to be an ostrich, truly fearing that he would direct his anger at them and have them dragged out, chopped up and fed to the dogs.

This older cousin of the future wangfei’s guts were truly too big. Even if it’s ‘facts’ that everyone all knows, you don’t have to say it so bluntly! Moreover, even said it for the future wangfei to hear. It doesn’t matter if your own little life gets targeted, but don’t involve other people.

Li Hong Yuan snapped a branch in half with a ‘pah’. This naturally startled Jing Wan and the others.

“Who’s there?” Gong mama called out, quickly circling around the flower bush for a look, and not at all unexpectedly met with Li Hong Yuan’s malevolent eyes. She slightly bent her knees as a way of bowing to him.

Actually, she was already aware when they’d first arrived. After all, Eunuch Mu wasn’t someone that practiced marital arts. The others perhaps could still mask their footsteps, but his approaching steps, Gong mama heard very clearly. That’s why, as soon as she heard the sound, Gong mama went over, in order to prevent them from getting discovered by others in case they didn’t leave immediately. If that happens, then getting caught saying bad things by the person involved, if Li Hong Yuan didn’t do a little something, then that would be strange. However, he couldn’t kill to silence them, and his matter would end up getting exposed.

Seeing Li Hong Yuan like this, Gong mama felt thrilled for some reason, and also somewhat taking pleasure in his misery. Now that miss knows of these things, if she were to remember them in her heart, then in the future, when you two marry, you’ll surely suffer. Furthermore, even if it was all false, it still wasn’t easy to explain. That kind of sulky feeling, hehe…….

Their eyes merely locked for a split second. Gong mama’s expression was distinctly seen by Li Hong Yuan. He turned and left right away. And in less than two three steps, he disappeared behind another flower bush, no longer to be seen. That’s why, even if it wasn’t Gong mama that came to check, it was still very easy for him to not let others see his figure.

Gong mama turned and retraced her steps back. The others all looked towards her. After all, Yuan Qiao Qiao’s words just now can be considered gravely offensive. If it really gets out, then it won’t be just playing around.

“No one, just an animal that scuttled in from outside. It stepped on a branch and fled in a flash. Although I didn’t see what it was exactly.”

Everyone all let out a breath in relief. Yuan Qiao Qiao somewhat nervously patted her chest, causing Luo Rong Hui to jab her forehead again.

Afterwards, the madams also learned the reason why Yuan Qiao Qiao lost her bearing, and their gaze towards Sun Yi Jia couldn’t help but carry a bit of pity and sympathy.

“Before coming to White Dragon Temple, I heard Jin Qinwang got attacked by assassins…..”

“Mother!” Jing Wan’s voice raised some. It was enough that Yuan Qiao Qiao was frank and outspoken, but to have another naive little idiot…..not a single person made one feel relieved. Moreover, Jin Qinwang was definitely still perfectly alive.

Zhang-shi embarrassingly shut her mouth, also aware that she said something wrong.

At this moment, Sun Yi Jia also felt a little better. She lightly smiled and said, “Don’t worry, at worst, it’s just this. If you all truly feel sorry for me, then before I marry, just spend some more time with me.”

That smile, so painful, so dazzling to the eyes!

Not long after, Ruan Fang Fei also received news. Naturally it wasn’t from her father, but rather from her people. She’d specially ordered them to pay attention to Jin Qinwang’s matter.

Ruan Fang Fei carried a smile, smiling very unsightly. “I gambled my own life for a scheme, yet unexpectedly, in the end, I instead made wedding clothes for someone else. However, it’s doesn’t matter, aside from me, no one else will be Jin Qinwang’s fated person.”
