Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 498.2: A Play, An Unexpected Harvest

Chapter 498.2: A Play, An Unexpected Harvest

She always thought that those feelings back then were already gone, yet turns out, it was just covered up, hidden very deep, slowly rotting. Suddenly bursting out in this moment was practically like a mountain torrent, for a time, completely drowning out her rationality.

“That s.l.u.t, when alive, monopolized his Majesty, and even after dying for that many years, still occupy his Majesty’s heart. But, so what if his Majesty treasures her that much, didn’t he still personally strangled her to death. Heheh, serves her right, this is what she deserves for being too greedy. As for you, this lowly sp.a.w.n, if I’d long known today would come, I would’ve also long strangled you to death.”

Li Hong Yuan didn’t go look at what kind of expression those palace servants had. In any case, they were already dead people. Moreover, just a few palace servants, forever won’t be able to enter his eyes. Just, look at n.o.ble Consort Su, more than twenty years, yet merely just casually provoking a little, she just completely exposed herself.

Entering the palace today, originally it was just aiming for that man. Ending things here was merely just not wanting to continue feigning civility with this woman. This outcome actually greatly exceeded his expectation.

“Consort mother, what you said, is it all true?” Li Hong Yuan’s voice was relatively soft, seemingly carrying endless sorrow and disbelief.

n.o.ble Consort Su felt something amiss, her emotions finally recollecting a little.

“Why don’t your Highness take a look at the entrance, it’ll be a big surprise.” Li Hong Yuan sat facing to the side, his hair covering his entire face.

n.o.ble Consort Su abruptly turned her head. At the doorway, on the dragon robe, golden dragons danced in the wind. In the entirety of Qi Yuan, only one person was able to wear this.

Le Cheng Emperor in this very moment was seething in anger, his two eyes wide open, like an enraged lion.

n.o.ble Consort Su nearly lost her soul, “Your Ma-Majesty…….”

Le Cheng Emperor rushed forward, his feet like as if carrying wind. Li Hong Yuan rather perceptively got up and backed away.

“You s.l.u.t——-” Le Cheng Emperor lifted his hand and just fanned a slap over. Just judging from the force, it was absolutely using more than a hundred percent of his strength.

n.o.ble Consort Su subconsciously wanted to dodge. Just, her body’s current condition didn’t allow it, fully taking the slap. Afterwards, it was just the second slap, and then the third…………..n.o.ble Consort Su could only cover her head and scream. Her pleading cries, usually before even coming out, just got slapped back, unable to speak properly.

Getting violently beaten by Le Cheng Emperor, n.o.ble Consort Su towards the end was already powerless to continue resisting, lying on the recliner on her last breath.

Li Hong Yuan went forward, grabbing Le Cheng Emperor’s hand, “Imperial father wants to beat consort mo—n.o.ble Consort to death?”

The enraged Le Cheng Emperor finally returned to his senses, looking towards Li Hong Yuan, seeing his empty expression, his eyes even penetrating with a deathly stillness. Suddenly, he was at a loss for what to do, “Yuan, Yuan’er………”

Li Hong Yuan let go of his hand, seemingly unwilling to even look at him, his line of sight landing on n.o.ble Consort Su. n.o.ble Consort Su just happened to meet with his eyes. That’s why, only n.o.ble Consort Su saw the ruthlessness and mockery in his eyes, “Regardless of what, her Highness in the end had raised me for that many years. In the past, when sick, she would stay by my side to take care of me. Food and clothing, as long as it was good, she would all think of me first. Regardless of what her original intentions were, these nevertheless were all true, occupying too many memories………..” Li Hong Yuan seemingly sunk into his memories. It originally should be warm and sweet, yet from his mouth, it nevertheless carried endless bitterness.

If not for n.o.ble Consort Su already learning his true colors previously, this while, she would’ve also gotten deceived by him, thus her guard against him also deepened. “Li Hong Yuan, you lowly b.a.s.t.a.r.d, what are you pretending for?” n.o.ble Consort Su subconsciously screamed out.

Le Cheng Emperor who’d slightly returned to his senses because of Li Hong Yuan stopping him, when hearing this, his anger rose again, raising his hand, about to swing again, yet once again got stopped by Li Hong Yuan, “Imperial father, you killed this son’s birth mother, and now, this is wanting to also beat this son’s foster mother to death?” He carried sorrow and grief in his voice.

This one line nearly caused Le Cheng Emperor to vomit blood, “Yuan’er, Yuan’er, no, it’s not like that. Don’t listen to this s.l.u.t’s nonsense. It was her. She was jealous of your consort mother. Don’t listen to her, don’t listen to her………….” He desperately wanted to explain.

Li Hong Yuan forcibly tugged the corner of his mouth, “Is that so, then, exactly what happened, why don’t imperial father tell this son.”

Le Cheng Emperor opened his mouth, yet was unable to speak. Randomly make up a lie? Speak unfounded nonsense? If able to deceive, then just deceive?

“Since imperial father hesitated, then what else is there to say?” The last bit of hope in Li Hong Yuan’s eyes seemingly completely perished. No longer wanting to say anything to Le Cheng Emperor, he once again looked towards n.o.ble Consort Su, “This son always thought that consort mother genuinely treated this son like a real son, yet turns out, this wasn’t the case. In contrast, in your heart, you actually hate this son that much, wis.h.i.+ng for this son to die. ———–This son wants to ask of imperial father one last time, please spare consort mother.”

Le Cheng Emperor’s lips squirmed, seemingly struggling, “Alright.”

“Many thanks imperial father. ——–From here on, just treat it as repaying consort mother for raising me. This will be the last time calling you this, your Highness n.o.ble Consort.

When Li Hong Yuan finished, he directly brushed his sleeves and stormed off, his steps seemingly somewhat frantic, even forgetting the etiquette in the end.

Gong Jiu also followed out. Just, not long after, Gong Jiu turned back again, and neither quickly nor slowly bowed, “w.a.n.gye originally brought this humble one to examine her Highness’s body. Even as matters stands now, w.a.n.gye is still worried about her Highness, so please allow this humble one to take the pulse, fulfilling w.a.n.gye’s final act of filial piety.”

n.o.ble Consort Su nearly bit through her lips trying to restrain herself, not having certain words blurted out. After all, Le Cheng Emperor was just to the side glaring like a tiger. Right now, he was already completely deceived by Li Hong Yuan, that lowly b.a.s.t.a.r.d, and won’t listen to a single word from her. If she dares to say anything inappropriate, who knows what kind of consequences there will be.

Gong Jiu took n.o.ble Consort Su’s pulse and prescribed the medicine. Whether or not the medicine will be used all didn’t matter. After organizing his medicine case, “Your Majesty, this humble one will take one’s leave first.”

“Wait.” Le Cheng Emperor didn’t forget his original reason for coming to Yucui Palace. Just, he never thought that he would encounter this kind of thing. The n.o.ble Consort that he thought was virtuous and kind was actually a snake in human skin. All these years, he’d been terribly deceived by her. More importantly, she even exposed the mistake he made back then. The thing that Le Cheng Emperor was the most unwilling to think back on, not even hesitating to trick himself into forgetting, got exposed just that easily. Based on Le Cheng Emperor’s own thoughts, he certainly will let this woman properly have a taste of what it’s like to live worse than death. Just, because he’d already agreed to his son’s request, and right now, who knows how his son thinks of him, if he were to immediately go back on his word, perhaps even that last bit of affection will all be severed.

Le Cheng Emperor letting Gong Jiu stay, Gong Jiu naturally ‘didn’t dare to not stay’. Thus, he quietly stood to the side.

Le Cheng Emperor looked to n.o.ble Consort Su with a heavy gaze, “If not for Yuan’er pleading, this emperor perhaps would’ve skinned you alive.”

Regardless of how mentally strong of a person, when facing death, one would still uncontrollably feel scared. n.o.ble Consort Su cowered, her teeth all trembling. She didn’t believe that Li Hong Yuan sparing her was just on behalf of that final bit of mother-son affection. But right now, she indeed lived because of him. If able to live, who would want to die? That’s why, regardless of how much malice she had towards Li Hong Yuan on the inside, she was unable to say any of it. An enraged person was capable of doing anything. Just like this man back then, precisely because of being muddled by anger just strangled the woman he loved the most to death. Compared to that woman, she was simply nothing at all. That’s why, it was best to not provoke this man.

Le Cheng Emperor swept a glance at the people present, his gaze landing on the palace servants of Yucui Palace. These people were just like those that had heard Rui w.a.n.gfei’s words last time, trembling in fear, not even able to plea for mercy, because they knew that it was useless.

In comparison, that first rank palace maid by n.o.ble Consort’s side, her eyes penetrated with a deathly stillness. Last time, she’d managed to escape with her life, but ever since then, she was very unwell. It wasn’t because of how n.o.ble Consort Su treated her or anything, but rather, because of knowing secrets that she shouldn’t know, she was continuously paranoid and anxious. And now, she even produced a feeling of finally getting released. As for using the previous secret to exchange for her life this time? Hehe, it’s best not to have this kind of daydream. Right now, she already couldn’t speak anymore, and moreover, she was also illiterate. Just think about it, the most highly regarded palace maid by the n.o.ble Consort’s side was illiterate, how ironic.
