Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 341.1: Previous Dynasty’s Lost Treasure?

Everyone of the Pei clan fell into disarray, losing their head out of fear. And Li Hong Yuan watched from the side, cold and detached. Don’t say that these people were his blood-related maternal grandmother, younger cousin, and biao niece, even if it was his old man, he would similarly be this cold-blooded. Of course, if it really was his old man, he would even stomp a few more times. Without an order from him, on this side, naturally no one would move.

The young ladies of the Pei clan this while really were scared, loudly kowtowing towards Li Hong Yuan, begging him to save the person.

Li Hong Yuan naturally was unmoved.

Jing Wan slightly frowned, “Wangye…….”

For things to have come to this step, the Pei clan leader although patiently endured and carefully schemed, if Li Hong Yuan were to thoroughly uproot the Pei clan, he perhaps temporarily won’t know, but touching this kind of large family clan wasn’t a joke either. With the tiniest spider thread of a clue, the Pei clan leader might just find out, and no matter what, all won’t be indifferent. And if the Pei clan leader madam were to meet with mishap here, the simplest method was just exposing his relationship with the Pei clan. This old madam’s death will ultimately be blamed on him, and under the backdrop of greatly valuing filial piety, for this kind of matter, to be pointed at and criticized by thousands of people all won’t be an overstatement. Even ascending the throne won’t be able to erase this stain. In fact, it will even be used by others, and with this as a foundation, say he’s brutal and cruel. And for anything that happens, it can all be pinned on his head.

Li Hong Yuan, perhaps, simply won’t care, after all, in his past life, he was a true and honest tyrant, but Jing Wan won’t disregard. Sometimes, her feelings were the same as Li Hong Yuan’s. She can not care about herself, yet won’t disregard the other party.

Li Hong Yuan turned his head and glanced at Jing Wan, as if saying, ‘I just knew Wan Wan you would be like this’.

Jing Wan smiled and didn’t explain either. Whether it was being softhearted, or for other reasons, it was all the same.

“Gong Jiu.”

Gong Jiu’s medical skills naturally didn’t need to be doubted, directly inserting a needle on top of the Pei clan leader madam’s head.

It’s not that Jing Wan has never seen someone use acupuncture before, but to be this daring, and moreover, the movement quick and smooth, this was definitely a first. This can be considered to have reached perfection.

The Pei clan leader madam’s soul got forcibly pulled back. And as she slightly regained consciousness, yet prior to fully waking up, Gong Jiu fed her a few more pills.

Opening her eyes, the Pei clan leader madam’s gaze fixedly landed on Li Hong Yuan. Because her complexion was deathly pale, her two eyes muddy yet fixed, she was a bit like malicious spirit coming to steal one’s soul, exceptionally terrifying. However, for the living Enma, no matter how malevolent of a ghost, he all won’t take seriously.

Pei Xiu Ying and them continuously called out to her, yet weren’t able to make her turn her eyes either, as if having already lost her soul.

A good while later, the Pei clan leader madam finally opened her mouth, “Guan Guan’s son isn’t like this, definitely wouldn’t be like this. You’re not her son, you’re not………”

Li Hong Yuan coldly sneered, “Then, in other words, those di sons of the Pei clan main family’s second generation, not a single one is yours, and they were even raised under your eyelid. As for my birth mother, really sorry, never even met once.” This so called maternal grandmother, although had wanted to meet him, seemingly even desperately so, Li Hong Yuan has never felt that she has any affection towards him.

The Pei clan leader madam choked. Li Hong Yuan’s nature was nothing like his birth mother, but those di sons of the Pei clan leader’s, regardless whether it was her biological son, or her older sister’s, weren’t the least bit like her either, and they even grew up under her eyelid. As such, she didn’t have any right and further didn’t have any position to say ‘no’ to Jin Qinwang.

The Pei clan leader madam tremblingly wanted to get up. Pei Xiu Ying subconsciously reached out to support her, yet she got pushed away by her without even sparing a glance, grabbing her granddaughter’s hand to stand up, “Wangye, this matter perhaps is our head of the family’s fault, but the others are innocent. To not look at the faces of the monks, but to look at the face of buddha^[1], asking wangye to please have mercy. A woman, if unable to give birth, her entire life will be ruined. And also those great scholars and renowned masters, reputation to them is of great importance…………”

Li Hong Yuan suddenly got up, going forward in large strides, kicking over the low table, and standing before the Pei clan leader madam, just half a step away. His hand lifted to halfway, but endured, putting it down again. However, his fist was tightly clenched, the veins without a doubt bulging on the back of his hand. In merely a few short breaths, even Jing Wan all got startled by him, quickly going forward, worrying that he will do something to the Pei clan leader madam. Fortunately……………

Li Hong Yuan had an obvious advantage in height, looking down from above, entirely covered in a terrifying aura. That feeling was like as if one wasn’t facing a person, but rather a ferocious beast, able to swallow you whole at any time. The people standing in front of him were violently shaking, and if not for mutually holding one another, they probably would’ve directly gone limp and fallen onto the ground.

“So you also know what will happen if a woman can’t give birth. The women of your Pei clan are treasure, and others are just weed? The Pei clan daughters are innocent? The Pei clan’s great scholars and renowned masters are innocent? Is this prince’s wangfei not innocent? Pei old thing for the sake of the Pei clan dares to scheme against this prince’s wangfei, so naturally, this prince can target ‘innocent people’ for the sake of eradicating the Pei clan. He absolutely shouldn’t have schemed onto this prince’s wangfei. In this prince’s eyes, the entire Pei clan all can’t compare with a single strand of hair on wangfei. Originally, seeing on behalf of that bit of blood relation, this prince didn’t plan on going to the extreme. As long as he obediently and honestly work, so what if it’s letting the Pei clan return to the imperial court. Unfortunately, he just had to be conceited and arrogant, believing himself to be infallible. Looking for death on one’s own, can others be blamed?”

Li Hong Yuan’s gaze shifted, landing on Pei Xiu Ying, “Shoving this prince a woman, should at least pick one that’s both clean and beautiful inside and out. Ones like this kind, empty with just a face, and on the inside, both dirty and repulsive, just save it. Even when the imperial palace wants to shove this prince people, all need for this prince to nod first, what did that Pei old thing count as? Since he has a request, his duty should just be to fully assist. To even dare talk conditions with this prince, really need to look at his own worth first. ————Someone come, see out the guest.”

“Wangye, wangye, isn’t wangfei perfectly fine, begging you to…………..” The Pei clan leader madam forcibly suppressed the fear in her heart, and grabbed Li Hong Yuan’s sleeve, making the final struggle.

Everyone present, including Jing Wan and the Pei clan young ladies, all felt the Pei clan leader madam was looking for death. Didn’t one see what kind of state Jin Qinwang was in right now, yet still dare to pour oil over the fire.

Jing Wan went forward, grabbing her wrist, pulling away. Li Hong Yuan retreated a step, and she just inserted herself between the two of them, “According to this wangfei’s knowledge, the Pei clan leader simply just didn’t have you taken seriously. Aside from having this title as wife, you are just the same as the other concubines, and that’s just a plaything specifically for childbirth, causing the children to also not have you taken seriously. The one that genuinely had you treated as a mother was probably just that youngest di daughter of yours, but you were weak and incompetent. When your daughter suffered that kind of treatment, you also didn’t dare to stand out to say anything, and once the person was gone, you come to feel guilty, come to reminisce, even raising a replacement to lighten the pain in your heart. And because of having an outer grandson, that replacement that broke your heart was also just disregarded. But now? The outer grandson didn’t reach your ideal image, so your heart just leaned back towards the Pei clan? Then again, you still need the Pei clan to provide for you, and when you die, still need the Pei clan’s incense fire as offering, so what did an outer grandson that aside from a bit of blood relation, didn’t even have proper status in name, and has never seen before in twenty some years count as? However, someone like you that lack resolution and don’t have the slightest agency, to say you’re soft-boned is all light. Clearly it’s just having lowly bones………….”

“You, you………..” The Pei clan leader madam shook all over.
