Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 485.3: Pulling Out the Fire From Under the Kettle

Chapter 485.3: Pulling Out the Fire From Under the Kettle

Jing Wan who hadn’t said a single word from the start also calmly followed out. Speaking of which, she really did just purely come to watch a play.

Once the two of them left, the others also successively took their leave. Offering incense to a b.a.s.t.a.r.d child from an affair, they also felt exceptionally annoyed. That said, with the Bai family’s current situation right now, it also wasn’t good for them to continue causing trouble for them.

Those son-in-laws of Scholar Bai, not a single one stayed behind. Their wife rather wanted to leave together with them, but fortunately, “You don’t need to go back, our humble home cannot contain such a large buddha such as yourself. The divorce letter, as well as your dowry, later will let someone send over.” This was the universal treatment towards all the Bai family’s married daughters. Having that kind of mother-in-law, losing all face, worrying about the daughters she raised was one thing, but it was more so worrying that by keeping the Bai family’s daughter, their own family will all get pointed at.

Although having already antic.i.p.ated such an outcome, when really happening, it was still difficult to accept, momentarily crying to the heavens, pleading in all kinds of ways. Getting divorced in this kind of way, how can they still live?

Those that abided by their duties in their husband’s home were still a bit better, but for those that relied on their maiden family’s backing to reign tyranny in their husband’s home, their husbands at this time time weren’t polite in the slightest, even physically rejecting. Furthermore, there was also the sister-in-laws that were offended by them, prior to leaving, even ruthlessly spitting at them.

As for Bai Old Madam’s eldest daughter, she stood in place, hopefully looking towards her own husband. When the other party ultimately chose to ruthlessly turn and leave, she blankly froze in place in a daze, wis.h.i.+ng to cry but had no tears.

It goes without saying, for those unmarried young ladies of the Bai family, things weren’t any better. Those that were still very young were still okay. Once time pa.s.ses, and the Bai family’s main wife changes, the influence will also lessen. However, for those that were currently discussing marriage, that was truly having their entire life ruined, holding their birth mother, painfully weeping.

For a moment, the Bai family’s weeping sound, that was even more earth-shaking than previously when mourning for ‘young master Bai’, and exceptionally true, not just thunder without rain.

In the horse carriage, Jing Wan’s spirit wasn’t high. Li Hong Yuan knew why, “Wan Wan blames this husband for being ruthless?”

“How could I, they were the ones that acted against you first. Attempting to strip you of your n.o.bility, in reality, how is that not attempting for your life. As such, can one not even allow you to ruthlessly strike back? And as the Bai family’s daughter, one’s glory is the whole’s glory; one’s loss is the whole’s loss. Since they enjoyed the glory and honor brought about by the Bai family, then they naturally also need to bear the consequences brought about by the Bai family.” In this society that emphasized on family clan, emphasizing on guilt by a.s.sociation, everyone was the same. No one can escape from this circle. “Just, this matter, for them, is still too bitter. After all, on this matter, they didn’t do anything wrong, yet need to go bear the consequences. I’m just feeling sorrowful inside, that’s all.”

“Has Wan Wan ever considered that they perhaps will hate this husband to death, and since you are one with this husband, you naturally won’t be spared.”

“This is something that can’t be more normal. That’s why, this matter, it’s also just so.” In reality, something that others consider the end of the world, in Jing Wan’s eyes, wasn’t really that bad, and in the future, it may not necessarily just be a bleak life, entirely depending on how they think and what they will do. Jing Wan firmly believed that for many things, it completely depended on one’s own att.i.tude.

Li Hong Yuan had her taken in his arms, “No worries, if the opportunity arises in the future, you can go change it.”

Jing Wan helplessly smiled. Just moving the mouth, how easy it was said, but no matter how difficult, someone ultimately need to go do it. When really sitting onto that position, and also having his power supporting, Jing Wan felt that it was impossible for her to be indifferent.

“What’s next, what will we do?” Jing Wan twirled a lock of Li Hong Yuan’s hair and asked.

“Because of imperial father’s att.i.tude, this husband is heartbroken, so next is naturally taking time to ‘heal’.”

Jing Wan silently lit a candle for Le Cheng Emperor. However, that kind of father getting schemed against by his son, that was all deservedly so.

In reality, after Le Cheng Emperor learned of the Bai family’s matter, on one hand he relaxed a breath, but on the other hand, he indeed headached. Exactly how difficult that unfilial son was to deal with, no one was more clear than him.

Originally, he was already prepared for him to come look for him. So was it avoiding or consoling? If he avoids, others perhaps will think that he has really abandoned this son already, and perhaps will just step on his son somewhere. How can Le Cheng Emperor allow this kind of thing to happen. But if he consoles, how should he console? When time comes, never mind failing to console, he might even add oil to the fire, causing even him to be terribly angered.

But now, great, he didn’t come to look for him, instead having the root of trouble taken care of. However, his att.i.tude previously was actually quite obvious already. Then, his unfilial son’s anger afraid won’t dispel that easily, especially since Le Cheng Emperor suspects that he already knows about his own special birth. Stripping him of the most important thing, and now, because of an outer family, ‘abandoning’ him, no matter who, all won’t be happy. That’s why, exactly what should he do?

Thinking to here, Le Cheng Emperor was endlessly resentful towards n.o.ble Consort Su. That women, he perhaps really did pamper too much, even forgetting where her honor and favor came from, daring to act wantonly!

Le Cheng Emperor not just once thought about going to strangle that woman to death, but restrained himself every time, and didn’t take action. If it has already happened, then no matter what, there was no way of turning back, but if it hasn’t happened, then that woman might in a fit of anger tell Yuan’er everything. When time comes, that will truly be the gains not making up for the losses. However, Le Cheng Emperor still ruthlessly recorded a mark in his heart.

Le Cheng Emperor then ordered someone to send large amounts of bestowments to Li Hong Yuan. Yet, as a result? Jin Qinw.a.n.g, who in the past would accept without question, this time ‘defied the decree and refused to comply’. Either have the things taken back to the palace, or he will just have them thrown onto the streets.

When Le Cheng Emperor heard from the inner court attendant that returned to report, he was awfully angered, yet also completely helpless, having the inner court attendant ruthlessly scolded. A bunch of useless trash, can’t even properly send out things, if not trash, then what?

The inner court attendant dared to be angry, but didn’t dare to speak, and could only obediently get reprimanded.

Le Cheng Emperor was busy coaxing his son, so the Bai family’s matter seemingly already came to an end. The Bai family wished to meet with him, but Le Cheng Emperor completely refused. This time, it wasn’t something that can be resolved by just kneeling. Even if it was Scholar Bai, he also didn’t make any exception, directly stating to Scholar Bai, if his energy is lacking, then he will allow him to return home rest, and can ‘rest’ for however long he wants.

As such, the Bai family could only put down the banners and give in, not daring to mention again.

It can be said that this time, the Bai family’s losses were quite disastrous, wearing away their close relations.h.i.+p with Le Cheng Emperor, learning a truth they didn’t want to acknowledge. The only son in the family didn’t die, but rather simply never existed in the first place. For the sake of the Bai family’s future, they became enemies with Jin Qinw.a.n.g. Never mind expanding their future prospects, right now it was already on the verge of collapse, extremely difficult to stabilize again.

Besides that, it was just the Bai family ultimately upholding their principle of ‘not wrongly accusing someone easily’, carefully investigating the matter. In reality, the matter that year, what Bai Old Madam believed to be very tight actually wasn’t the case. After all, at the time, she wasn’t in control of the Bai Manor’s inner residence. The reason why no one suspected anything back then———One was because Bai Old Madam was upright and composed, and two, no one would think that Bai Old Madam had that big of guts. That’s why, this matter was able to be covered up. When actually going to investigate, even if more than ten years ago, there still exist some traces and clues. Great, the truth was just as what Jin Qinw.a.n.g had said.

Thus, the almost sixty year old Bai Old Madam got divorced on the grounds of ‘obscenity’, this kind of contemptuous reasoning. At this age, with this kind of crime, it can be said to be completely unheard of. Bai Old Madam’s parents have long pa.s.sed away, and how can her brothers take in such a woman like her. Taking her back, that would practically just be harming the entire family, letting the whole family be unable to lift their heads. That’s why, Bai Old Madam getting divorced wasn’t really any better than getting dealt with in the Bai family.

For the Bai family to do this, it was probably just ‘smas.h.i.+ng the already broken jar’. In any case, that many people already knew. Even if the entire capital all knew, it wouldn’t be considered surprising. Since both face and substance were all lost, then how could they let the woman that made the Bai family fall to such a degree be well.

As for the person that schemed everything behind the scenes, they probably also never thought that it would be this kind of ending, truly just drawing water with a wicker basket, ending up with nothing. Risking the dangers of possibly getting discovered, ruthlessly sparing no thoughts, yet the outcome? It didn’t even stir up a single splash of water, at most just causing a few small ripples, and afterwards, had the emperor pushed even closer to that side instead.

How these people were, it completely wasn’t able to affect Li Hong Yuan, continuing on as usual. And on Le Cheng Emperor’s side, he also completely ignored.

Originally, he had plan on having the horse tracks handed over, but with such an incident occurring, he instead didn’t care anymore. Regardless of how much money, he prepared to have it all taken into his wallet. Based on Le Cheng Emperor’s temperament, even if still having some misgivings towards the horse tracks and rare beast park, this while, he will absolutely have all the memorandums accusing Jin Qinw.a.n.g of misconduct all pressed down. After coaxing his son, he perhaps can still find an excuse to have the matter brought around.

And the winnings and losings of the races have already been clearly calculated. Towards those winners, Jing Wan sent people to each family to have the banknotes or silver delivered. Jing Wan expressed, she was lawfully running the business, so how could she just casually swallow other people’s money.

The people that originally thought their money was lost, when receiving the money, were even a bit dumbstruck. It seems it completely matched with their winnings, even saying that the next race will be in seven days, and that there won’t be an invitation. If they want to partic.i.p.ate, then send someone to the estate to register in advance.

Originally thinking that Jin Qinw.a.n.g will meet with mishap this time, certain family’s shu sons had already suffered from getting side-eyed for several days, but unexpectedly, this kind of turn of events appeared. The originally somewhat fretful heart instantly calmed down, while others just nearly choked to death.

And those true wastrels that were still lamenting over the fact that something they finally found fun might just end prematurely after one time, after hearing the news, that was just instantly reviving. And afterwards, each and every one all said: “Told you so, who is Jin Qinw.a.n.g, how could something possibly happen to him.” Subconsciously carrying a bit of reverence.

Even if urgent news from the borders will soon reach the capital, based on the previous matter, Li Hong Yuan will still just play around with his wife. In any case, even if someone says he’s indulging in luxury, his old man will also suppress his anger and not lash out.

Judging from this bit, certain people practically just helped him out.

T/N: I guess this is entering the next arc soon, the second major war will break out in the following chapters, the one that was the eventual start of Jing Wan’s tragedy in the past life.
