Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 562: Night Visitor

“Wangfei is compassionate and benevolent, the heavens will bless the worthy.”

For better or worse, it was consolation coming from Grandmaster Liao Chen, so more or less had a bit of an effect. However, this affect was very limited. As long as Jing Wan doesn’t wake, then that heart will forever be suspended.

Even though Li Hong Yuan didn’t say what he was going to do, but Gong mama for the most part was still able to guess it.

Gong mama just wish for everything to go smoothly for him, and return as soon as possible. Just, it goes without saying, it absolutely won’t be smooth. In this matter, who knows how many twists and turns there will be, even possibly extremely dangerous. After all, those people schemed in every possible to create such an outcome, so how could they easily let you escape. Even though it wasn’t stated clearly, but in reality, everyone was all well aware inside. Inherently, it was still targeted at wangye, very possibly having him drawn out of the capital most likely for the sake of killing him.

However, even if knowing that it’s a death trap, Li Hong Yuan will still go without second thought. Who let those people indeed grasped his lifeline. To want to deal with someone, just pinch said person’s lifeline. This was common sense, especially for Li Hong Yuan, this type that was strong to the point of unable to be shaken. His weakness perhaps was the only way to deal with him.

From the start, they’d already predicted this bit. The people Li Hong Yuan arranged by Jing Wan’s side were the most faultless guards. Just, in this world, there was always that bit of unknown, inevitably having the unexpected, it can be said to be impossibly to fully guard against.

That’s why, how was it just Jing Wan that made one worry. In a certain sense, Li Hong Yuan’s situation was even more dangerous than hers.

Gong mama placed a small recliner by Jing Wan’s bed. She will certainly be accompanying her at night.

Even though there wasn’t the various bodily needs, it didn’t mean that they didn’t need to do anything, needing to wipe the body everyday, massage, wash the hair at set times, and even needing to move out of the room to get some sun.

In this way, it continued for two days, until Le Cheng Emperor’s people came looking.

Li Hong Yuan although took quite a few people with him, but their pace was fast enough, and due to the living Enma’s might, no one dared to question. And after leaving the city, ordinary commoners, even if seeing, just the sight of that scene was more than enough to make them all avoid far far away. As such, in a short amount of time, Le Cheng Emperor’s people really weren’t able to find where Li Hong Yuan and them went. For them to find out, it was still because of the noble madams at White Dragon Temple, going back and inadvertently mentioning with their family, then getting reported to Le Cheng Emperor.

The matter this time, no matter how one looked at it, all penetrated with abnormality. Li Hong Yuan’s rapid movements showed the severity and urgency of the matter. In reality, Li Hong Yuan’s level of recklessness, certain people had an understanding inside. It wasn’t as exaggerated as rumored. He had propriety, and for the most part won’t overstep the bottom line. This time, can only say that something really had happened, something big.

And when the Luo family learned that Li Hong Yuan had left the capital together with Jing Wan, they will inevitably think of even more, especially the two elders, knowing far more than the others. They practically subconsciously just figured that this matter most likely was related to Jing Wan.

Luo Old Madam simply was unable to sit still. When learning that they might still be at White Dragon Temple, she just immediately sent people over. Thus, the Luo family’s people were merely just a bit behind Le Cheng Emperor’s people.

For these people to come to White Dragon Temple, it was also completely within expectation. That’s why, Gong mama had long thought of how to deal with. Jing Wan’s current situation, it was impossible for ordinary people to know about. Even if knowing, they certainly won’t dare to leak it out, because they will certainly get viewed as the culprit behind the scenes by the living Enma. To fight with the living Enma in the capital, hehheh, even cat demons with nine lives all don’t have that ability. That’s why……..

“Wangfei suddenly fell ill with an unknown disease, even the manor doctor is bounded by the hands, unable to do anything. Having no other choice, wangye came to White Dragon Temple to look for Grandmaster Liao Chen’s help. Fortunately, Grandmaster Liao Chen know the cause, just the medicine needed is extremely rare and hard to find. As such, wangye personally took people to go look for the medicine.”

Gong mama wasn’t worried about the lie getting seen through, because there was still Grandmaster Liao Chen blocking. He certainly won’t have this matter exposed, and with him present, Le Cheng Emperor’s people absolutely won’t doubt.

TN: All

Grandmaster Liao Chen was someone of high virtue and prestige. No one would believe that he would lie. And through this matter, the person behind the scenes perhaps will also learn about Grandmaster Liao Chen’s special treatment towards Li Hong Yuan. However, they similarly were helpless. In reality, going against Grandmaster Liao Chen was also a very stupid thing to do, the gains not making up for the losses.

Moreover, monks do not tell lies, and Grandmaster Liao Chen simply didn’t need to open his mouth. In his courtyard, no one would stupidly go question him anything. Speaking of which, even if something were to leak out afterwards, at most it would just be Gong mama ‘pulling the tiger skin to make a banner’, nothing to do with Grandmaster Liao Chen himself.

The people that came easily got dealt with. Even if someone suspects that there’s something strange in this matter, when unable to find Li Hong Yuan, and Jing Wan was also in a coma, in addition to Grandmaster Liao Chen saying that it’s best for her to stay in White Dragon Temple, no one had the guts to have her taken away.

How the others were, it wasn’t important. However, the Luo family wasn’t that easy to brush off, especially a day later when Luo Old Madam personally came to White Dragon Temple. Sitting by Jing Wan’s side, “Tell me, exactly what happened, it’s best you don’t try to fool me.”

Gong mama knew how important Jing Wan was in Luo Old Madam’s heart. These last few years Luo Old Madam’s body has improved a little, but she ultimately had been seriously ill before, even nearly not making it. As such, one still needed to be extremely careful in all aspects. What kind of outcome this matter will be, it was still unknown. Gong mama was very hesitant inside.

How sharp was Luo Old Madam, “Say it, this old woman can still handle it.”

Gong mama slowly sighed, having the others all sent out. Although this party of theirs all knew what happened to wangfei, but the specifics, the others didn’t know. Facing Luo Old Madam, she must have the matter explained clearly, and through her mouth, have the current situation passed on to the Head Minister of Appointment. While wangye is not in the capital, there needs to be someone else that can stabilize the capital’s state of affairs, absolutely can’t let a messy situation arise at this time.

Gong mama stood in front of Luo Old Madam, orderly and clearly having the cause and effect explained. Even the details, including what kind of situation Jing Wan as well as the child in her stomach might face, she all explained, needless for Luo Old Madam to ask.

On the surface, Luo Old Madam remained calm from beginning to end. After she finished listening, she turned towards Jing Wan, her eyes carrying worry, but ultimately didn’t lose her bearing. Reaching out, she carefully placed on her hand on Jing Wan’s stomach, heart-aching to the extreme.

When Jing Wan was a few years old, she was already by her side, watching her grow up little by little. There was no one more considerate than this child. Even if having her loved to the bones, it all wouldn’t be too much. The Luo family perhaps wasn’t extremely wealthy, yet has never let her suffered any hardships. And after she married, her husband also particularly indulged her, even letting her originally steady personality become a bit delicate. As her grandmother, she naturally was happy to see this.

Originally, Luo Old Madam’s only worry was Jin Qinwang having a change of heart in the future, yet never thought that at this time, such an incident would occur, her fate even unable to be predicted.

“According to your words, wangye this while has gone to Southern Qi?”

“Replying to old madam, most likely the case.”

Even if taking people with him, but that bit of people, what difference was it from entering an enemy country alone. Under this kind of situation, where the two countries didn’t formally exchange official letters, once discovered, the aftermath will be too horrible to imagine. Furthermore, poisoning her precious granddaughter with gu, this kind of thing, those power holders of Southern Qi may not necessarily be unaware. If it was all planned for, then this while, they were just waiting for him to come.

“Even if Southern Qi wants to make a move on Qi Yuan’s imperial family, their target shouldn’t be Jin Qinwang, unless wangye’s powers in the dark got exposed, but even so, reasonably speaking, Southern Qi should still think of a way to have this matter brought before the emperor, or perhaps sow discord in front of the other princes, throwing Qi Yuan’s interior into disorder, and then reaping the benefits. To have him drawn out of Qi Yuan’s capital at this time, this isn’t reasonable.”

“Old madam, based on wangye’s current powers, his Majesty is unable to suppress, and the other princes cannot defeat. By the time wangye takes the throne, for the other countries, it’ll all be a threat. The best way is to just have wangye eliminated before wangye completely takes control of the country.”

Even though Luo Old Madam knew that Li Hong Yuan was very strong, she never thought that he was already strong to this degree. Her own husband afraid wasn’t completely aware either, “Then, in this case, the person that had wangye’s powers leaked to Southern Qi must be someone that is extremely familiar with wangye’s situation. Is it a spy or a traitor?”

Gong mama lightly frowned, “Should be neither.”

Gong mama wasn’t saying this without thought. If the other party really had wangye’s ins and outs grasped very clearly, then perhaps wouldn’t have done this kind of thing. The aftermath of thoroughly angering wangye, afraid no one can withstand. Additionally, the ones most familiar with wangye’s situation should be the shadow guards by his side, but those people, for the most part, actually were just in charge of a certain area. That’s why, aside from wangye, no perhaps can also include wangfei, no one knew all of wangye’s powers.

“En? What do you mean?” Luo Old Madam looked towards Gong mama in slight confusion.

“This servant further lean towards it being someone that has a bit of understanding towards wangye, but understand that, that’s just the tip of the iceberg for wangye, as such, extremely fearful towards wangye.” Just, this prediction was still far from enough.

Luo Old Madam nodded. In this way, it rather made sense.

Shortly after, the inside of the room sunk into a long silence. Luo Old Madam just that quietly sat there for nearly two hours. “You must take care of your master. In a few days, I’ll come again.”

She has experienced through the wind and rain after all, and precisely at this time, Luo Old Madam was increasingly rational. Because knowing that guarding by Jing Wan’s side right now was also useless, it was better to return to the capital. Aside from having what she learned today passed on to their family’s old master, she also wanted to give her own humble efforts. In the past few years, Luo Old Madam didn’t like going out, but that was because it wasn’t necessary. Now, it was time for her to go out for a walk. Never underestimate the seemingly unremarkable things in upper class manors.

Based on what Luo Old Madam currently knew, the disturbance within Qi Yuan should end very soon, perhaps immediately once her grandson-in-law returns. Although this trip to Southern Qi was dangerous, she didn’t believe that Li Hong Yuan would fall head first there. In the following days, even if she goes out a little too frequently, even if possibly getting suspected by certain people, it also didn’t matter.

The Luo family’s power right now was displayed there. To want to take down the Luo family, it was impossible within a short period of time. Moreover, the Luo family has a powerful alliance, keeping watch and defending one another. When combined together, even if someone wants to overturn the heavens during this period of time, it all won’t be that easy.

Gong mama didn’t know Luo Old Madam’s changes inside, but she also didn’t need to know. The best way to help was to just respectively take care of one’s own duties. To just recklessly act on one’s own, that would just disrupt the situation.

That night, Gong mama gave Jing Wan a full body massage as usual.

Gong mama’s gaze subconsciously landed on Jing Wan’s stomach. These last few days, she has practically stayed closely by Jing Wan’s side at all times. The little master has just slightly moved once. Perhaps there were times when she wasn’t paying attention, but even if having it all added together, it certainly still won’t be able to reach the amount of times he would move in one day previously.

Gong mama could only take the pulse again and again, ensuring that Jing Wan and the child were both fine.

This kind of situation, in a certain sense, was quite tormenting.

Speaking of which, ever since Jing Wan met with mishap, Gong mama’s alertness just shot up to a hundred and twenty percent, always sleeping very lightly, able to wake at the slightest sound. However, this night, Gong mama nevertheless slept very deeply.

Footsteps sounded in the courtyard, sounding neither light nor heavy, just an ordinary person, neither too fast nor too slow.

With a creak, the door got pushed open. Although it wasn’t the days before and after the fifteenth, but under the clear night sky, the moonlight was still considered pretty good. Penetrating through the doorway, a blurry shadow was drawn out.

The figure didn’t pause, approaching Jing Wan step by step. Afterwards, taking out a relatively small night pearl, illuminating a small area, they took down the buddhist beads wrapped around Jing Wan’s wrist——–the ones that Li Hong Yuan asked for from Grandmaster Liao Chen during Jing Wan’s first trip to White Dragon Temple, when Jing Wan first entered the capital. Untying the knot, they extracted one of the beads, replacing with a completely identical bead from the embroidered pouch at their waist. And the buddhist bead that was extracted also got placed into the embroidered pouch. After tying the knot, and repeatedly ensuring that it was the same as before, they had it placed back on Jing Wan’s wrist. Tidying up a little, it appeared exactly how it was before.

After finishing everything, the shadow left the room, closing the door.
