Chapter 197.2: Being Defended By Someone Was Quite Touching
Prior to coming, Jing Wan already predicted Luo Jing Ying would cause trouble, and her greatest bargaining chip right now was nothing more than just the child in her stomach. As for the method she was using now, Jing Wan felt she really overestimated her. Luo Jing Ying’s guts really weren’t much, unable to be ruthless to herself.
Luo Jing Ying deathly clung onto the people supporting her, “w.a.n.gye, where’s w.a.n.gye………”
Regardless of what, this wasn’t a small matter. The servants could only hastily inform their w.a.n.gye and w.a.n.gfei.
Having alarmed Rui Qinw.a.n.g, would Li Hong Yuan still not know? Jing Wan was there after all, so how could he not ask or question. Originally, Li Hong Ming’s idea was that Liu-s.h.i.+ will naturally handle it, so no need to be concerned. He believed that Luo third miss wasn’t that kind of person.
“The right and wrong of the matter, it’s still best to figure out clearly.” If one blurs the matter, then there will be plenty of excuses to s.h.i.+ft the responsibility.
From far away, they just heard Luo Jing Ying’s voice, “This concubine of third imperial brother’s is rather energetic.”
Rui Qinw.a.n.g’s complexion was somewhat unsightly. During this period of time, Luo Jing Ying’s true nature was just exposed out, and also made him realize certain unpresentable conducts of hers. He endured, and just sent two mamas to teach her etiquette, but Luo Jing Ying instead acted coquettishly with him, shamelessly refusing to learn. And now, even when pretending, it was all this manner. Perhaps, in the beginning, choosing her was just a mistake.
Rui w.a.n.gfei arrived first. At a glance, she immediately could tell this matter, nine times out of ten, was just an act. Her face controllably darkened a little. This was completely having her warning treated as the wind by the ear.
Li Hong Ming saw Luo Jing Ying pitifully reaching her hands out towards him, a look of asking to be held. If there were no outsiders, he rather didn’t mind complying with her, but with his brother at his side, and outsiders present, he just felt exceptionally embarra.s.sed. As a result, he had Luo Jing Ying very thoroughly ignored. He casted a glance at Jing Wan. Because of their arrival, she already stood up, calm and easy-going, not the least bit fl.u.s.tered. Just based on this level of bearing, she already beat Luo Jing Ying by a large margin. He inwardly sighed, yet on his face, there wasn’t the slightest abnormality at all. Then looking towards Luo Jing Ying again, he suddenly produced an idea. His gaze meaningfully landed on Luo Jing Ying’s stomach. If he were to just push along the waves, directly getting rid of this child, would he be able to obtain an opportunity…………….
He for the most part already confirmed that Luo Jing Ying didn’t have any place in the Luo family, but Luo Jing Wan wasn’t the same. She was deeply favored by Luo Old Madam. If she were to get involved with in this matter, the possibility of the Luo family disregarding her was truly too low.
Li Hong Yuan coldly watched from the side. What Li Hong Ming was planning, he could immediately tell at a glance. This, in his eyes, was truly something he was long done playing with. Treating it as if he didn’t exist? “Someone come, invite the imperial physician.”
One line thoroughly interrupted Li Hong Ming’s train of thought, turning around to look towards him, “Just a concubine, why trouble the imperial physician? Just let the manor doctor have a look.” He dispelled his previous thought. Unable to grasp Luo Pei Shan, yet provoking this living Enma truly was ‘the gains not making up for the losses’. If this b.a.s.t.a.r.d wanted to give him a hard time, he simply had no way of compensating back. Moreover, at the time, when taking in Luo Jing Ying, outsiders already suspected that there was something fishy, but because there weren’t any definitive evidence, no one dared to make reckless remarks. Having the imperial physician invited over now, as soon as the pulse is taken, won’t everything be all exposed? When time comes, the Luo family’s reputation will be damaged even more, but the image that he’s maintained this whole time will also be completely ruined.
“Until now, third imperial brother still doesn’t have an heir. Consort mother is also anxious. When that previous concubine was pregnant, the female doctor guarded every day, and the imperial physician also came to check the pulse once very three days. This one now, her birth is much more honorable than that one, yet third imperial brother is slighting instead?”
Li Hong Ming’s expression didn’t change, “Sixth brother, this is a misunderstanding. Presumably, it should be that third brother, I, have a relatively weak fate with an heir. That previous child, perhaps it was just caring too much, the good fortune too heavy and unable to contain, thus wasn’t able to preserve. That’s why, this one now, it’s perhaps better to be more nonchalant.”
“Whether your fate with an heir is weak or not has nothing to do with this prince. And the imperial physician needs to be invited. This prince at least need to know whether the fetus was actually disturbed, or it’s just someone deliberately wanting to cause trouble. If it’s the former, then can only be that third brother, you, were unlucky, but if it’s the latter, this prince will inevitably want the pretense to turn into a reality.”
Li Hong Yuan indifferently stated, yet the meaning implied in his words, made one fearful.
Li Hong Ming was glad he dispelled his previous thought, else the one to suffer in the end would definitely be him.
And Jing Wan was shocked at Li Hong Yuan’s ‘rightfully so’ and aggressively unreasonable manner. If you suffer a loss, that’s just your own bad luck, but let him suffer a loss, and he’ll return it to you ten-fold. Yet, as it stands, Rui Qinw.a.n.g didn’t dare to say anything at all. Because he maintained his silence, even if he can’t retaliate against him, he at least won’t suffer an even disastrous loss. Even if on the surface, Jin Qinw.a.n.g had no power and no influence, but in reality, in a certain sense, it was practically considered to have ‘even more power’ than the Emperor. Moreover, the Emperor definitely wasn’t as carefree and unrestrained as him. The Emperor may be restricted by many strict rules and bindings, but he won’t. As a w.a.n.gye, to be like Jin Qinw.a.n.g, there was probably no predecessor in front and no successor behind. And when you become the target of protection by this kind of man, it actually really was quite touching.
“Sixth brother, she’s merely just young, thus finicky, wanting to let this prince come see her. Judging from her appearance, she didn’t seem to have disturb the fetus. These little tricks of the inner manor, there’s no need for sixth brother to bicker over. Come, let’s continue drinking. Third brother recently obtained something good, will bring it out for sixth brother to see.”
What was this called, going bankrupt to prevent disaster? Heh, judging from Li Hong Yuan’s att.i.tude, he was clearly just used to this.
Jing Wan also seems to have understood, the true purpose of why Li Hong Yuan wanted her to come, purely just coming to extort Rui Qinw.a.n.g’s things. Everything else was merely done in pa.s.sing, so whether or not one can achieve was all irrelevant.
“w.a.n.gye, can this subject withdraw first? Speaking of which, because this one was born a day earlier than fourth younger sister, this one was just considered as having suppressed fourth younger sister. Fourth younger sister and this subject’s relations.h.i.+p since childhood have always been bad, and seeing this subject, she would easily get stirred up. Right now, her body is heavy, so in that case, it’s not good for everyone. Moreover, prior to coming out, grandfather and grandmother also didn’t approve of this subject coming all that much. In the future, if not necessary, then it’s best not to meet.” Jing Wan appeared tactful, but the meaning that she wanted to express was actually very clear.
Li Hong Ming clearly was already very angry, yet on the surface, he still maintained a perfect smile. Never mind having Li Hong Yuan present, he can’t lash out, even if just Jing Wan alone, he still needed to maintain his elegance. “Luo third miss’s words are reasonable. People that don’t get along indeed don’t need to forcibly gather together.”
“w.a.n.gye, this wife actually feels quite kindred with Miss Luo, and in the future, will also be zhoulis. Don’t know if one can occasionally invite Luo third miss to the manor for a chat?” Rui w.a.n.gfei’s gentle voice sounded.
“This, this prince is unable to make the decision, still needing to see whether or not Luo third miss is willing.”
