Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 480: Someone Died

Chapter 480: Someone Died

It was obvious, Kang Qinw.a.n.g had thought too much. If the living Enma really wanted to scheme against him, would it just be letting him lose a bit of face and nothing more?

With a compet.i.tion that had these individuals partic.i.p.ating in it, the bets afterwards weren’t that concentrated anymore, and they won’t be making bets depending on the other party’s father’s t.i.tle. After all, some things, it really was very hard to say.

And this kind of situation, when competing, would instead become even more exciting.

However, making bets according to the owner, this kind of situation, probably will just be this one time.

By the time all the matches of the first round concluded, there were some people whose throat had already become hoa.r.s.e. However, they mostly felt it was thrilling, really, very thrilling. After all, this was their first time experiencing, sometimes even hating that they can’t take their place.

Just, the time was already getting late. The second round will take place after noon.

Originally, the blood was already burning to begin with, hating that they can’t just immediately learn the final outcome, especially the people that had won quite a bit of money. They probably have never had the experience of instantly having large sums of money entering their pockets before. That kind of feeling truly was quite fleeting. And afterwards, it would quietly foster the greed inside, wanting even more, much more.

However, the compet.i.tion’s arrangement wasn’t something they can decide. Moreover, after running at high-speeds, the horses ultimately needed time to recover their stamina. For the horses further towards the end, the more it was like so, although over the course of the entire race, the overall energy consumption for the horse actually wasn’t that much.

During the afternoon meal, many people were still worked up, endlessly discussing.

Just, about halfway through the meal, everyone nevertheless heard the roar of a tiger. Because it was too sudden, everyone first froze, and unknown as to who called out “tiger—-“, the place immediately just fell into an uproar.

Tigers, that wasn’t a joke. Even if never having seen before, they still knew of the viciousness of a tiger. As the saying goes, ‘to turn pale at the mention of a tiger’, the psychological fear was carved into the bones and engraved in the heart. Moreover, hearing this roar, it was as if very close by, so how could they not panic. Additionally, they’d heard that on this estate, there was also a rare beast park, the rare and unusual beasts inside too numerous to count. Perhaps this tiger was just one among them………..The more they thought about it, the more they panicked, constantly feeling that this tiger’s roar was growing closer and closer, just like as if it will appear before them in the next moment.

Li Hong Yuan put down the chopsticks. Eunuch Mu immediately offered up a wet towel. Taking it, he nonchalantly wiped his mouth, and afterwards, switched to another one to wipe his hands, appearing completely unmoved, as if not hearing the commotion. After wiping his hands, he had the towel thrown back.

The others at the same table, seeing him like this, also endured and didn’t move. If they were to reveal a timid look, it would be too embarra.s.sing.

Guard Qian rushed over. Obviously, he came because of the tiger issue.

“What happened?” Li Hong Yuan calmly asked.

“Replying to master, two tigers from the rare beast park escaped. The people guarding on that side weren’t able to block, thus they ran to this side. The tigers ended up injuring a few people. Right now, we’re currently attempting to have the tigers driven back.”

“If not obedient, then just kill it, why the need to waste that much energy.”

Clearly a very brutal thing, yet from his mouth, it was such a nonchalant matter, just like as if crus.h.i.+ng an ant to death.

“Yes.”

Once Guard Qian left, Li Hong Yuan poured another cup of wine, “Merely a trivial matter, just don’t know whose handiwork it was, such a clumsy attempt. Could it be that someone thinks that by killing a few people, it will be able to affect this prince? Heh!”

The people present, upon hearing this, didn’t respond, however each had their own thoughts. How to put it, not only were they worried that if they respond, this fire will just burn onto them, but also facing Li Hong Yuan, probably other than fifth w.a.n.gye, there wasn’t anyone that hasn’t consider ‘killing him’, especially in the current state of affairs. It can be said that, he blocked too many people’s paths.

And right now, with such an incident occurring, they were all inwardly suspecting one another, exactly whose handiwork was this? Although causing a few deaths indeed won’t have him thoroughly pushed down, but if the person that died was relatively important, then even imperial father will have no choice but to punish him. After all, the so called ‘people have no differences of n.o.ble and lowly’, that was all false. A few commoners dying versus a few n.o.bles dying, can the final outcome be the same?

The former, if Le Cheng Emperor insist on suppressing, it wasn’t impossible, but for the latter, the difficulty was just too high.

That’s why, if the tigers appearing on this side really wasn’t an accident but human-caused, then it was obvious, they didn’t feel this plan was very clumsy. Besides, even if it doesn’t succeed, as long as the loose ends are cleaned up, it won’t matter. If once doesn’t work, then just twice; if twice doesn’t work, then a third time; if the rare beast park doesn’t work, then just try the horse tracks; if the horse tracks doesn’t work, then the estate.

There’s a saying called, ‘there are only those that steal all day long, but not those that can guard against thieves all day long’. Jin Qinw.a.n.g only had that bit of manpower. If he can really make it where not a drop of water can leak out, then that would really be a problem, no? And as long as it wasn’t like an iron bucket, then there will undoubtedly be an opening.

At first, they also don’t need to think about immediately taking his life. They can completely take a roundabout approach, just needing to have imperial father’s pampering towards him weakened, and if able to let imperial father spurn him, then even better. Then, the plans afterwards will just become much simpler.

Thus, unexpectedly, under this kind of circ.u.mstance, certain people strangely reached an unanimous agreement inside.

Towards their thoughts, Li Hong Yuan didn’t know, but even if he knew, he won’t care either. His att.i.tude right now was just, not voluntarily exposing anything, but if he gets detected by certain people, he won’t care either.

Besides, the horse race this time, such a large event, was precisely for the sake of giving certain people the opportunity. If nothing really were to happen, then that would be disappointing. Just, his wife was kind-hearted, unwilling to let innocent people be involved. After all, the fights and schemes between them can easily result in someone’s death. As such, the horses on this side, as well as the people coming and going, were all watched over very tightly, absolutely can’t have any slip-ups. If by chance something were to happen to the horses, and it goes onto the racetracks, once it goes mad, the probability of someone dying was too high. Towards not being able to take advantage of this bit, Li Hong Yuan even felt it was a bit unfortunate.

Just, putting their ideas on the rare beast park………

Li Hong Yuan’s gaze darkened, the wine in hand downed in one go.

Compared to Li Hong Yuan’s composure, Jing Wan wasn’t that calm. Rather, it wasn’t because of fear, but because the tigers had injured people. One has to know, the animals in the rare beast park were all wild. The feral nature and destructive power definitely made people frightful.

And without anesthetics, the tigers injuring someone, unable to get it back, Li Hong Yuan pa.s.sing down the order to kill, Jing Wan also can only remain silent. However, things didn’t just end here.

Just as Jing Wan was quietly waiting for the outcome, a servant girl somewhat hurriedly rushed over. Even if the order to kill was issued, someone still died. Moreover, this person wasn’t a servant, but rather the descendant of an influential family.

Jing Wan nearly cursed out loud. If this matter wasn’t human-caused, then she will have her name written backwards.

She didn’t mind someone doing something, but she didn’t plan on someone dying.
