Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 538: The Ding Duchess’s Death

Once Le Cheng Emperor came out with a dispirited look and saw the sagely looking Grandmaster Liao Chen, he seemingly finally sobered up a little. Just, aside from Grandmaster Liao Chen, there was no one else. Even so, towards Grandmaster Liao Chen, Le Cheng Emperor still didn’t dare to put on the airs of a ruler. Firstly, it was because of Grandmaster Liao Chen’s mysterious and unpredictable supernatural powers, and secondly, it was because he had something to ask of Grandmaster Liao Chen.

“Grandmaster……….” Le Cheng Emperor somewhat hesitantly called out.

Grandmaster Liao Chen turned around, performing a buddhist bow, “Amitabha Buddha. Your Majesty, for some things, it’s best to have an open mind.”

Le Cheng Emperor’s lips stammered, “Based on grandmaster’s meaning, this emperor really can’t see Guan Guan anymore?”

“Your Majesty, some things, once is already asking too much.” Grandmaster Liao Chen said these words very bluntly.

Le Cheng Emperor instantly just became dejected.

With the matter already over with, Grandmaster Liao Chen naturally didn’t plan on staying any longer, bidding Le Cheng Emperor farewell, preparing to leave the palace tomorrow and return to White Dragon Temple.

And this night, many people all didn’t sleep well. Regarding the matter of the Imperial Noble Consort ‘still existing in the world’, many people all knew, and during the ceremonial ritual, they’d also obstructed in all kinds of ways, but unfortunately, all weren’t able to succeed. And tonight’s matter, the people that should know all knew. A ‘person’ that no one was able to see, don’t know how much dirt she grasped on others. Not only so, she was even deeply favored by Le Cheng Emperor. Even if not having any dirt, to just randomly make up some, it would all be enough for them to suffer greatly.

But, even if knowing this, they were also powerless to stop it. That’s why, they could only fretfully wait.

Each and every one all staring with their eyes wide open until dawn, and because of suffering from internal heat, their eyes all filled with wisps of blood.

Today originally had a morning court session. Just, when time came, the news of his Majesty’s body feeling slightly unwell came, and thus morning court was cancelled.

This seemingly was also within expectation. The court officials all didn’t have any objections, all respectively leaving, heading to their respective offices to handle today’s official business. And on Le Cheng Emperor’s side, similarly no one wanted to request an audience.

——-As the subject, when needing to be perceptive, one should still be perceptive. Going forward at this time, it wasn’t currying favor, but looking to be hated.

However, even if each buried themselves in their own work, their heart still wasn’t that calm.

Le Cheng Emperor continuously suspended court three times in a row. Front to back, it was a total of over ten days. The court officials all weren’t able to see him. Even if commemorating one’s true love, wasn’t this time a bit too long? The court officials won’t allow it.

Thus, they jointly requested to meet Le Cheng Emperor. Fortunately, at this time, Le Cheng Emperor also seemingly walked out of it already, so didn’t make them worry too much.

However, this didn’t mean that they can just sleep peacefully. Each and every one were all waiting for Le Cheng Emperor’s move, or perhaps should say, waiting for the thing suspended above their head to fall, and see exactly whether it was a fatal weapon, or something that they simply didn’t need to mind.

TN: All

Le Cheng Emperor indeed made a move, but it was merely just giving Jin Qinwang a large pile of bestowments, and other than this, there was no other indications.

Many people all relaxed a breath. It was obvious, these people all had done something shady that can’t be seen by others. However, even if relaxing a breath, it didn’t mean that they just had their hearts completely placed back in its original place. After all, no one knows whether or not Le Cheng Emperor was just restraining his emotions, waiting to make a move in the dark. After all, the powers of the court currently got divided up by the princes, the roots twisting and intertwining. Regardless of touching which, it would all be a single hair moving the whole body. Even Rui Qinwang who appeared to still be abolished, can you guarantee that he really was harmless already? It was merely because of having concrete evidence in Le Cheng Emperor’s hand.

However, regardless of what these people were thinking, it all wasn’t able to affect Jing Wan and Li Hong Yuan. After all, the Imperial Noble Consort’s appearance has firmly given them a protective charm. Even though it may appear to just be adding flowers on brocade, but it can still save them quite a bit of trouble, no? ———-To have endless inconveniences, it would also make one very annoyed.

In reality, the various sides also knew what kind of position Jin Qinwang was in right now. As such, no one would stupidly go look for trouble at this time, else they would certainly cause the emperor to fly into a violent rage. Even if the officials of the court grouped together, who was able to directly criticize Le Cheng Emperor to his face? No matter how mediocre he was, he still held great power in hand. As the saying goes, ‘the heavenly son, once angered, millions of corpses fall’.

As such, it actually gave Jing Wan a peaceful environment to raise the fetus. Jing Wan for a time even suspected that her own husband pushing back the time for his Majesty to meet with the Imperial Noble Consort, whether or not it was precisely for this purpose? Then, did it mean that on the matter of having children, he long had plans?

Then, her husband’s feelings towards that child seemingly were even more complicated than she’d imagined.

The scorching seventh month ended, the eight month arriving. At this time, Jing Wan nevertheless received news, the Ding Duchess had passed.

Jing Wan blanked on the spot, feeling a bit complicated inside. Truthfully speaking, the Ding Duchess wasn’t a likable person, but she ultimately was Sun Yi Jia’s mother. Even if Sun Yi Jia’s relationship with her was poor, it was still mainly afterwards. Towards her, Sun Yi Jia certainly had feelings. Moreover, in the end, it was still because of Sun Yi Lin’s matter that made her fall ill, never recovering. One can’t deny her love towards Sun Yi Lin, but this kind of love clearly was too much. Her overly strong desire for control made their mother and son relationship increasingly worse, to the extent of not having any leeway to turn around.

It ultimately was the Ding Duchess, so Jin Qinwang Manor should also go offer condolences.

Jing Wan on one side was worried for Sun Yi Jia, while on the other side, can’t help but think of Sun Yi Lin. That was also a person like the clear moon. Last time meeting, it was still on the way to Jiangnan. Having served as an official for a few years, he certainly will have changes, just don’t know whether or not the changes were big. On the inside, she had that tiny bit of curiosity, but very quickly tossed to the back of her mind. How he was, it had nothing to do with her at all. In addition to having an ultra vinegar jar, even if purely curious, it was still best to not ask.

Jing Wan first sent people to check on Sun Yi Jia, learning that Sun Yi Jia although wasn’t that spirited, it nevertheless wasn’t considered too terrible either. She ultimately was pregnant, so the people by her side certainly will console her as much as possible.

The burial also wasn’t going to be in a day or two. Moreover, even if visiting to offer condolences, it was also divided into batches. Follow current s on Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

The time Jing Wan and Li Hong Yuan went wasn’t considered towards the front, but also wasn’t considered towards the back either. In reality, it was just going through the motions, offering a stick of incense. With Jing Wan’s current situation, Li Hong Yuan naturally won’t allow her to stay in Ding Duke Manor for long.

However, just that coincidently, when leaving Ding Duke Manor, they just happened to run into Sun Yi Lin who had hastily rushed back.

Directly encountering as such, the atmosphere was somewhat stiff.

The living Enma’s emotions practically couldn’t be controlled. His gaze towards Sun Yi Lin were like as if carrying daggers.

Jing Wan just glanced at Sun Yi Lin once. Truthfully speaking, if not for hearing the Ding Duke Manor’s servant’s words, she simply wouldn’t have recognized, because Sun Yi Lin’s face clearly got wrapped by layers upon layers of white cloth. It was obvious that he’d gotten injured. Moreover, the entire air around him was all different. The warm and gentle air was gone, appearing even more chilly, even carrying a trace of gloominess. Even his figure all had some changes. Of course, this bit actually wasn’t strange. After all, he was merely twenty years old. Having some changes in two to three years’ time was also very normal.

Jing Wan was somewhat startled, not knowing what had happened to him. However, her attention was placed on the man beside her first thing, just fearing that he would cause trouble in a moment of disagreement.

Jing Wan voluntarily held his hand, just nodding towards Sun Yi Ling. The entire process was just like merely greeting the person in front, and nothing more.
