Chapter 544.2: Realization, Gloomy, Poison Tongue

Speaking of which, at the time, Le Cheng Emperor had the people of Yucui Palace all cleanly taken care of, so towards certain matters, the others didnt know. However, in this world, there doesnt exist walls that dont leak wind. Some things still have traces to follow. Just like for instance, the people present were all well aware inside that n.o.ble Consort Su and her foster son, because of certain matters, thoroughly had a falling out. Jin Qinw.a.n.g was fine, and n.o.ble Consort Su, aside from still having a n.o.ble consort t.i.tle, lost everything. It goes without saying, it was certainly n.o.ble Consort Su that was in the wrong.

Speaking of which, during this time, the imperial consorts didnt go to Yucui Palace any less.

When it comes to throwing stones at the fallen, that was absolutely the women of the imperial harems most skillful talent.

Stepping on the kind that didnt have any status or position, how boring. That kind of person simply wasnt worth it. Only by having those that were high and above, that once oppressed oneself, stomped into the ground, would it feel satisfying.

n.o.ble Consort Su once was the most favored of the imperial harem for that many years. The imperial consorts that suffered at her hands were too numerous to count. Perhaps because she stood high enough, certain things shed done in the past were just like eating and drinking, even she herself didnt have any impression, but for others, it was very likely just a great calamity. As such, having the opportunity, what reason is there to not take revenge?

For the banquets of the palace, regardless of its nature, song and dance were all a necessarily program.

Idly chatting with people, while leisurely eating things, or watching the dancers nimble dance moves from time to time, while occasionally listening to the songstresss sonorous and resounding song, if not, then the melodious music was similarly pleasant to the ear.

Although having seen quite a few times, there was always differences. To avoid being too bored, or get dragged to chat by Le Cheng Emperor, Jing Wan watched quite intently. When focused, it indeed felt pretty good.

Le Cheng Emperors imperial table certainly would be more abundant than the other tables at any time. Thirty to forty dishes, that was all considered relatively few. Today was the mid-autumn festival. Seeing the dishes getting served wave after wave, Jing Wan figured it probably broke a hundred.

Towards the end, the ones that can enter Le Cheng Emperors stomach were probably just three dishes in total amount. And that was already above average performance for the imperial kitchen. The rest were all wasted.

Many emperors during their reign, all say the state treasury was hollow. Based on this level of squandering, it would be strange to not be hollow. Everything else aside, if the emperors every meal was switched to eight dishes and two soups, then add a dessert and whatnot, and the people of the inner palace reduce in accordance, then the amount of money the entire imperial palace can save every year would be enormous.

An emperor having eleven dishes per meal was just wronging him? Dont joke, that was more than enough for seven to eight people.

Unfortunately, the meal was also an important mark of the emperors status.

Li Hong Yuan directly picked up a finger-sized meatball and fed into Jing Wans mouth. And Jing Wan just opened her mouth and ate it, very much used to it. One could tell from the looks of it, that it absolutely wasnt the first time. By the time Jing Wan reached out to drink a bit of soup, she finally discovered in hindsight that everyones gaze towards her was somewhat off, especially Le Cheng Emperors. That was really quite profound.

The thing in her mouth shed just swallowed, yet she felt a bit stifled, secretly reaching out to pinch a certain someone. She may be absentminded from watching the performance, but could it be that he was also lost in thought? It was clearly on purpose.

On Li Hong Yuans body, that was for the most part muscles everywhere. To want to pinch, it wasnt easy. Jing Wans pinch, for him, was further like a tickle. He unconcernedly glanced at her, adding a piece of fish in her bowl.

Jing Wans face right now was indeed much thicker, but getting stared at by this many people, she still felt her face burning a little. Yet, a certain someone completely didnt have that perception, still very happy. If she really were to open her mouth to stop him, afraid it would attract even more attention. Jing Wan was rather helpless. She also could tell, this person clearly was being petty, trying to settle the debt with her. Since he was unable to do anything to her, then it was just using this kind of method to pull in hate for her.

TN: All

When the people of the world all felt it was the norm, then that was just being affectionate, but when the people of the world were all reserved and conservative, then couples holding hands outside would all be viewed as inappropriate, not knowing etiquette, even not knowing shame. Furthermore, it was always the wife serving the husband. When in reverse, if a bit serious, then some would even ask where did your learning of virtue go.

Of course, in the eyes of the other men, it was indeed unacceptable behavior, but for the other women, this wasnt the case. The concentrated animosity all came from them.

Tsk! Jing Wan slightly lowered her eyes, pretending to be dead.

Li Hong Yuan put down the chopsticks, drinking a cup of wine, his gaze meeting with Le Cheng Emperors, What is imperial father looking at this son for?

Le Cheng Emperor lightly coughed. It ultimately wasnt good to directly point out, The things you shouldnt do, its best to not do.

Li Hong Yuan lightly sneered. Others perhaps would want to subtly brush over, but who was Li Hong Yuan? The living Enma, the former demon king incarnate. What shouldnt be done, what cant be done, he just insisted on doing. Compared to being subtle and reserved, he just liked being direct and crude.

This son heard that consort mother was imperial fathers true love, and towards consort mother, able to dig out ones heart and lungs. This son doesnt believe that youve never fed consort mother before. He turned his gaze, landing on the others, Such a trivial matter is also worth making a big deal out of? If you have nothing to do just watch the beauties dance, and if unsatisfied, then just switch to something else on your own. To be staring at the two of us, you all sure are terribly idle. If cant stand to watch, then just do it on your own. This prince doesnt mind in the slightest.

Li Hong Yuans unparalleled shamelessness, neither blus.h.i.+ng nor fl.u.s.tered, actually made the others that didnt do anything feel terribly embarra.s.sed.

Especially Le Cheng Emperor, nearly choking, angrily glaring at Li Hong Yuan, You think everyone is like you, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d! If you want to be intimate with your wife, then get lost back to your own manor. Behind closed doors, you can do whatever you want. But as long as youre outside, then need to pay attention for this emperor.

Li Hong Yuan unhesitantly began mocking, Imperial father doesnt have anyone to accompany by the side, yet dont allow other couples to be a bit close, so unreasonable. Moreover, you not having anyone by your side now, exactly whose fault is it? If you cant stand seeing this son, then directly issue an imperial decree, having this son confined in the manor. Really think I care about coming to the palace? Last year, at the estate, without a bunch of random people, dont know how satisfying.

Li Hong Yuans mouth once again spat daggers. Le Cheng Emperors liver ached from anger, his heart choking, nearly vomiting blood.

And the others also collectively suffered a calamity, getting indiscriminately attacked by Li Hong Yuan, truly quite innocent.

Le Cheng Emperor tremblingly pointed at Li Hong Yuan, You, you, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, do you want to anger this emperor to death? Huh? You did it yourself, yet dont allow others to say? Even glancing at you will all make you unhappy?

Li Hong Yuan immediately shot up, Indeed unhappy, what does your Majesty want to do?

The atmosphere instantly just became hostile like drawing swords. Jing Wan actually was still okay, but certain peoples tolerance level wasnt that great. Especially those younger ones, from the looks of it, all about to cry.

And Li Hong Yuan seemingly even disdained that he didnt provoke Le Cheng Emperor enough, This son naturally dares to admit to what one has done, open with nothing to hide, but what about you, your Majesty? At this table, there originally can be another person present.

Bang! Le Cheng Emperor suddenly slammed the table, seething in anger, staring at Li Hong Yuan like an enraged lion, but Li Hong Yuan wasnt willing to be outdone. The father and son pair just glared at one another like mortal enemies. In the end, it was still Le Cheng Emperor that surrendered, instantly deflating, Enough, some things, this emperor doesnt want to say more to you. Today ultimately is the mid-autumn festival. Properly finish this meal with imperial father, dont speak out against this emperor every time. This emperor is the ruler, and also your father, for better or worse, leave this emperor a bit of face.

Li Hong Yuan still wanted to say something, but Jing Wan grabbed him. When he looked over, Jing Wan lightly shook her head. Li Hong Yuan stared at her for a moment, and in the end, no longer opened his mouth.

Le Cheng Emperor took it in, feeling sour inside. All say, having a wife, forgetting the parents. This b.a.s.t.a.r.d really was the most typical of them all. However, dont know whether or not it was because this b.a.s.t.a.r.d was personally pulled out of his mothers stomach by him, he seemingly was just born to conflict him. When speaking with him, one was unable to be amiable past three words.

Why dont you sit down. Le Cheng Emperor waved his hand. For the sake of this meal, he also didnt want to deal with him, just letting him do as he pleased, closing one eye, pretending not to see. If you speak with him, who knows how it will turn out.

Le Cheng Emperor sometimes even question, exactly what kinds of sins did he commit in his previous life for him to give birth to such a b.a.s.t.a.r.d in this life to go against him. Yet, he also couldnt bear to harshly punish him.

However, with Li Hong Yuan subtly mentioning the Imperial n.o.ble Consort, particularly her death, Le Cheng Emperors mood also wasnt great.

Li Hong Yuan seemingly still didnt want to compromise, but in the end, got pulled to sit down by Jing Wan.

Jing Wan on the surface was somewhat careful and somewhat terrified, but on the inside, she was very calm, just pondering, exactly what nerve broke for this one today, to the extent of pulling this many people to be unwell together with him.

It was obvious, only Jing Wan was the most clear. A certain someone was just being deliberate.

Thats why, in reality, no matter who encounters him, all need to light a candle.

This incident seemingly just past like that. In everyones heart, it didnt leave behind too deep of a mark. After all, it was just like cursing Jing Wan out of jealousy, already used to it. The first time, it was hating, the second time, anger, third time, resentment, but by the fourth, fifth time, one was already numb, and by the seventh, eighth, ninth time, one can probably be calm like water.

Of course, this was for the great majority of the people. n.o.ble Consort Su was hunched over, her two eyes gloomy and sinister. When mentioning the Imperial n.o.ble Consort, it was feeling resentful, yet also delighted, yet also scared. What she was worried about the most was still this fire burning onto her. Regardless whether it was her or her son, they already cant afford to get spurned by the emperor once more, else there really wont be anymore leeway to turn the situation around again.

Perhaps because Le Cheng Emperor took a blow once again, his spirit all became a bit withered. Towards n.o.ble Consort Su, he perhaps didnt even think of her.
