Chapter 274.2: Imperial Envoy

The words were said so bluntly, but the truth was indeed so, making one unable to respond.

With that temper of Jin Qinw.a.n.gs, receiving the imperial order, it was practically just equal to holding Qi Yuans nonexistent imperial treasured sword

. Beheading first, reporting later, this definitely wasnt just playing around. Moreover, he was a prince, also holding the n.o.bility rank of a qinw.a.n.g. Killing you was also just that, what can you even do to him? Arriving in the underworld, even if you have grievances, there was nowhere to tell.

But it was also precisely because of this that if one were to let him be the imperial envoy, then Jiangnan this time definitely will get shaken up greatly, dont know how many people will die, and the ones getting dragged down certainly will be even more. All sides will have disastrous losses. This definitely wasnt something certain people were willing to see, all racking their brains

, wanting to block, but they were indeed unable to find a fitting reason.

Your Majesty, this subject second this. Luo Pei Shan was the first to stand out, and soon after, quite a few people also expressed their support.

And seeing Le Cheng Emperors expression, he seemingly was also very convinced. Undoubtedly, there was no other candidate more fitting than this son. As for worrying that he will use this opportunity to seize power and bribe peoples hearts, one just need to let someone completely loyal to oneself accompany along. Then, all the problems all wont be problems anymore. Le Cheng Emperor inwardly thought to himself, how brilliant.

Do the others still have suitable people to recommend?

This was for the most part already in favor of the Head Cabinet Ministers proposal?!

When opposing, the reason and candidate, of the two, not a single one can be lacking, yet no one was able to achieve. Even if vomiting blood inside, still can only pinch ones nose and reconcile. As a result, more and more people concurred. Deathly opposing to the end at this time would just leave behind a bad impression in front of his Majesty. Do you want to still work or not?

Have you all even asked for this princes opinion yet? When seeing that nearly everyone was all concurring, Li Hong Yuan very uncooperatively opened his mouth.

This time, practically everyone were all quite choked up. However, very quickly, a happy expression emerged in quite a few peoples hearts. Who can still prevent this matter? Probably just the person himself. If he doesnt want to do it, even if having him kidnapped to Jiangnan, as long as he doesnt take action, or perhaps do a bit of something else, it would only cause an opposite effect.

Le Cheng Emperor wanted to come down from the dragon throne and whip this b.a.s.t.a.r.d to death. However, he also knew that when this b.a.s.t.a.r.ds temper really gets stubborn, he really had no way of dealing with him, sighing, Old six, are you really not willing to share the burdens for imperial father? This trip, just as Beloved Minister Ruan has said, needless for you to do anything. As long as you preside over the overall matters at appropriate times, just let the people below diligently handle the work. You can just treat it as going to Jiangnan to play around, what do you think?

Li Hong Yuan frowned. Although most of the times he was unmoved by neither coaxing nor coercion, but occasionally can still be convinced, though he definitely wont bend to coercion, The rest, this son has the final say?

Le Cheng Emperors brows furrowed, Within a reasonable scope. If one really were to indulge him, dont know what hell be capable of doing.

What is considered reasonable? Li Hong Yuan diligently questioned.

Le Cheng Emperor was very irritated. Getting his other sons to handle an a.s.signments would never be this troublesome, figure it out yourself, understand? But what can he do, this b.a.s.t.a.r.d was precisely spoiled by him, Other than the main matters, eating, drinking, playing, all do as you please. If others dont provoke you, just dont casually cause trouble, alright? More specifically, youre not a three year old child anymore.

Understood, if theres nothing else, this son will take ones leave first. And when its time to set out, just notify this son.

Alright, get lost, get lost. Le Cheng Emperor powerlessly waved his hand. He sometimes even want to ask, what kind of sin did he commit to deserve this.

Li Hong Yuan swiftly got lost.

Having decided the imperial envoy, afterwards it was just the main entourage.

Li Hong Yuan was just the lucky mascot. These people were actually the most important, but because the mascot couldnt afford to be provoked, the destructive power too great, one also needed to be cautious with choosing the candidates.

Le Cheng Emperor was also too lazy to continue wasting his breath with them, waving his hand and just choosing the most suitable personnels. In other words, regardless of who they worked for. However, Le Cheng Emperor also had the unpleasant words put in front, if they get dealt with by Jin Qinw.a.n.g because of the main matter, he not only wont take the circ.u.mstances into account and hear their case, hell even add to the offense. For serious cases, it was just seizing the entire family. And in order to have even more intimidation power, he even ordered the Left Captain of the Black Clad Guards to lead fifty Black Clad Guards to accompany along in secret, and unconditionally carry out Jin Qinw.a.n.gs order.

The Black Clad Guards were one hundred percent the Emperors hawks and hounds, only acting on order, their ability to execute orders super strong, and their means ruthless, killing people like cutting gra.s.s.

Those that originally still had some little thoughts, wanting to scheme a bit of something, their enthusiasm instantly just decreased by ninety percent. And the remaining ten percent, if not not having Li Hong Yuan taken seriously, it was just harboring luck.

Appointing the soldiers and generals, Luo Pei Shan was adept in. In any case, it already wasnt the first time. Moreover, he wont consider any other factors outside of their ability to handle work. In any case, these people, no matter how they bounce around, still wont be that grandson-in-laws opponent. Its just they themselves looking for death, nothing to do with him, no?

Le Cheng Emperor then let some other high officials supplement, and very quickly had the personnels finalized. Lastly, Great Commander of the Imperial Guards will accompany along, fully in charge of Jin Qinw.a.n.gs safety.

There were people that lit a candle for Le Cheng Emperor again. This was sending someone to monitor him, or sending someone to unconditionally help him?

Since the matter was urgent, they cant delay for too long, else dont know what other incidences may occur. Thats why, the time to prepare was just three days.

On Li Hong Yuans way back to the manor, Jing Wan was also taking care of some matters.

s.h.i.+, Ci, Ge, Fu, the four of them, simultaneously asked her to appoint a marriage.

Jing Wan rather wasnt that surprised. As the people by the living Enmas side, having this bit of guts to seek true love wasnt considered all that strange. After learning that they werent Li Hong Yuans people, towards this moment, she also somewhat antic.i.p.ated. Just, four altogether? Cant you all come one by one? At least give her some time to adjust.

How about waiting for w.a.n.gye to come back and asking his opinion? Ordinary servant girls, her deciding was also just that, but in the end, they were Li Hong Yuans personal servant girls, so no matter what, still need to ask the person himself. There was no other meaning, purely just out of respect, thats all.

w.a.n.gfei, such trivial matters, you can just decide. Towards your decisions, w.a.n.gye wont have an objection.

True, that person, towards these matters, really didnt take to heart at all. Since thats the case, its not good for me to impose either. For the time being, why dont you all have the person called over for me to see. Although the time youve served me was short, but the sentiments and feelings are still there. Not saying to judge for you all, but at least should still advise them, letting them be good to you all in the future.

Many thanks w.a.n.gfei.

Jing Wan softly smiled, No need to thanks, in the end, you all are people serving w.a.n.gye and I. I although dont have any abilities, but at least should still take care of the people by my side. Just, your ages arent that big, and not in a hurry to get married either, so can take it slowly. That way you all can take care of handing over the matters to Mei, Lan, Zhu, Ju, and them. They have many areas they dont understand, so you all should teach them more.

w.a.n.gfei, theres actually nothing left to hand over. During this last month, everything is more or less taken care of already, and the wedding cant be dragged on either. Qing s.h.i.+ blushed, her hand intentionally or otherwise placed on her lower abdomen. This kind of thing really was embarra.s.sing enough, but he was very happy, and Qing s.h.i.+ herself was also gradually falling for him.

Jing Wan was somewhat dumbstruck. Should say, as expected of Jin Qinw.a.n.gs style, relatively formidable? Qing s.h.i.+ appear to be steady with propriety, yet now, pregnant before marriage?!

Even if it gets out, it probably would be nothing, but when all said and done, it still affected ones pure reputation, so was it really good?

Your matters, w.a.n.gye already knows? Jing Wan thought for a moment. She kept feeling that if a certain someone didnt know, they probably wouldnt have this courage either. However, as a girl, why would they do this kind of thing for no reason? Never mind one, from the looks of it, seemingly all four of themit cant be that a certain someone told them to look for someone, right?

Who knew that Jing Wan would accidentally guess the truth.

w.a.n.gye knows.

Fine, I wont ask anymore either. Since this is the case, you all just focus on preparing for marriage. If theres anything, Ill let them go look for you all. Eh, wait, at a time unbeknownst to me, you all already secretly had the matters on hand handed over. This is having long thought of marrying from the start? Jing Wan teased.

w.a.n.gfei please forgive.

Its a happy matter, what is there to forgive?

Jing Wan had them sent off and began settling the debt with her own servant girls, each and every one collectively keeping her in the dark.

Actually, Jing Wans people, from the start also didnt think of seizing power or whatnot, just because they themselves were inadequate, so they just exerted all their strength in learning, but who knew that a month later, this would be the outcome.

Since the matter was already like so, what else can be said.

Li Hong Yuan returned to the manor, and as soon as he saw Jing Wan, he just said, Wan Wan, imperial father ordered me to be an imperial envoy, tell someone to pack the things, need to go to Jiangnan.

Things happened too suddenly. Jing Wan blanked for a moment, and immediately after nodded, Okay, is there anything w.a.n.gye needs to specially bring? Ill let someone prepare it, so as to avoid forgetting.

Need to specially bring? Aside from you, what else is there? Li Hong Yuan used his hands to intimately rub her cheeks.

Im also going? Jing Wan was pleasantly surprised.

Didnt I already tell you, in these two days something will happen? Just forgot this quickly? Or is it that you actually dont like?

Like, of course I like!

[1] In ancient times, it was a sword specifically made for the Emperor and the imperial family to use, and it symbolized the power of the Emperor, as well as used to represent the Emperors decree. In this particular context, its referencing one of its other usage, which is when the Emperor bestows the sword to a general, it gave the general the authority to directly kill low level officers and soldiers on the battlefield (on their own side, not the enemy side, basically their own subordinates) without needing to specially report to the imperial court. This was where the idiom behead first, report later () comes from. Also it seems Qi Yuan doesnt have an actual sword made for this purpose, hence why its nonexistent.
