Chapter 279.1: Calculating Altogether

What are you troubling yourself with these people for? And its just you thats good-tempered. However, the other party simply wont feel grateful. Li Hong Yuan appear to be criticizing, but the tone was very gentle. Since the interest is gone, then naturally its returning. In any case. He meaningfully paused, This Kaiming Fu, aside from those annoying things, the rest is still not bad, so staying for ten days to half a month longer isnt that big of a deal either. Otherwise, prior to returning to the capital, just continuously stay in Kaiming Fu the whole time. The other matters, just let the others take care of. This prince believes, many people will be very happy.

Jiangnan had four prefectures, twenty-eight fu, and the officials were further too numerous to count. Each and every one were all scared and on edge. Ever since learning that you will be the imperial envoy, they havent had a single good night sleep. If you stay in Kaiming Fu, for those people, to say they will be happy, that was definitely not enough to describe. Perhaps theyll just start singing and dancing, dust off their official cap in celebration.

Just, for these officials of Kaiming Fu, theyll probably just want to vomit blood. Originally, it had nothing do with them, and Kaiming Fu was also merely a place they were pa.s.sing through, yet now, required them to face this living Enma alone. If easy to serve, no, no need to be easy, just need to be able to serve was enough, then they will also do their best to have this period of time grinded away. But the problem was for this one, there was simply just no way of serving. No matter what you do, hes all unsatisfied, unhappy, and even nitpicks, frequently pulling a long face. How can one live like this?

Even Jing Wan, whos become increasingly clear of Li Hong Yuans temper, all lit thirty-two candles for these people, observing a moment of silence. Speaking of which, for those that have long casted themselves under him, exactly how did they manage to survive under him? Needless to say, those were all true warriors that have been tempered into steel.

However, one thing can be for certain, as long as its someone that has been nicely trained by Li Hong Yuan, their work efficiency certainly will all be extraordinarily high.

After all, if their a.s.signment is handled well, they will be able to obtain salvation. If not handled well, then one will be endlessly tortured and tormented by him. And as time pa.s.ses, anyone will just end up broken mentally, losing the will to live. The only way was to just have everything taken care of the first time, so as to face him as little as possible.

All their motivation wasnt for the sake of obtaining praises or rewards, but rather to avoid torment. This was probably also considered a great oddity throughout all of history.

Alright, when the living Enma was generous, he was still quite generous, otherwise, its not like they were m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.ts, who would follow him?

Jing Wan still havent realized that she was actually the number one warrior, not the kind striving to survive under the living Enma, but rather the kind that was able to tie up the living Enma and climb on his head.

Since they said they would leave, then naturally wont stay anymore. A crowd of young masters got pitifully herded behind the horse carriage. As they were leaving, they cried for their father and shouted for their mother, begging their elders to save them. For anyone that falls behind, or doesnt listen, those guards werent polite in the slightest, the seized weapons swiftly whacking over. Although not striking the head, it was still very painful. As the father or the grandfather, they all took it in, the heart aching, but could only look on helplessly, unable to do anything.

Especially the Governor-Generals son that was specially looked after. If others just suffer once, then he will need to suffer twice. Moreover, having been used to being a tyrant, after getting hit, he would just subconsciously curse back, thus naturally just suffering even more. Practically just a vicious cycle. The Governor-General tightly clenched his two fists, gritting his teeth. Did he hate? Of course he hated. Just, dont know whether this hatred was just directed towards Li Hong Yuan, or mixed with something else. After all, for something like this to happen, in a sense, it was still because ones own family didnt have the child raised right. Otherwise, Jin Qinw.a.n.gs behavior would be able to have footing, no?

What he needed to consider now was whether or not to save this unfilial son. Two million five hundred thousand taels, its not that hes unable to bring out, and moreover, after bringing out, it wont even seriously damage the family, but after bringing this out, he will have to consider the consequences. He wasnt from an ill.u.s.trious n.o.ble clan, and just as Li Hong Yuan said, building that villa already exceeded his net worth. However, that can still be somewhat justified. But dont forget why his Majesty was sending an imperial envoy, effortlessly bringing out two million five hundred thousand taels, at such a time, will end up getting the home searched and the entire family executed. Moreover, according to his worth, it wasnt enough to be favored by his master above, and plus, his master was already being eyed by his Majesty, so the possibility that he would save him was truly to too low.

But to just abandon this son like this, betting that Jin Qinw.a.n.g wont really kill the person? One hundred thousand taels for a sixth rank official similarly exceeded their worth, so the ones that would bring out this sum of money afraid werent many.

But the letter clearly stated, Jin Qinw.a.n.gs temperament was unreasonable, indefinitely moody, daring and wanton, not giving anyone face, and even his brothers that held actual power, he would all act out against, not holding back in the slightest, so how can they be sure that he would just give up because it was several human lives?

Governor-General, right now, what should we do? The others were somewhat out of their wits, hoping that the Governor-General can think of a way. After all, his son was the main offender. The rest were all just caught in the net of disaster. If this matter cant be resolved perfectly, they wont just be bearing a grudge against Jin Qinw.a.n.g, but also him. Then, in the future, in Kaiming Fu, he will have many troubles.

Go back and tell your familys madams to go request an audience with Jin w.a.n.gfei. No matter what, need to meet with her. Jin Qinw.a.n.g no matter whatstill wouldnt go as far as to do anything to the womenfolk.

Although cant say that women will absolutely be more soft than men, but under most circ.u.mstances, this was indeed the case. Moreover, Jin w.a.n.gfei didnt seem to be the malicious kind. The letter also stated, need to attach importance to Jin w.a.n.gfei. Looks like they still, because she was a woman, just looked down on this bit. Now, she perhaps was the most crucial, or even only breakthrough point.

Right, right, right, quickly go back. They were originally just preparing to let their own madam go visit the unwell Jin w.a.n.gfei, just an unforeseen incident occurred, and now further had to go.

It was rus.h.i.+ng back without stopping the horse again, naturally not forgetting to send people to follow behind Jin Qinw.a.n.gs horse carriage to keep an eye on the young masters.

Only the Governor-General stayed behind till the very end. He looked to that poor scholar, not saying a single word. However, that scholar just felt as if hed gotten targeted by a viper, subconsciously wanting to back away. However, he suddenly recalled Jing Wans words, thus lifting his head and sticking out his chest, This commoner greets the Governor-General.

The Governor-General probably never thought that he would react as such, You, very good, very very good. Turning his head, he looked towards that girl, Since youve followed my son, then naturally just someone of my Governor-General Manor. Someone come, have her taken back. With that said, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Never mind the onlookers, even that girl herself all sensed the Governor-Generals malice. One can well imagine, going like this, afraid it was more misfortune than good fortune. Facing the two servants of the Governor-General Manor, she struggled with all her might, wanting to escape, wailing out dont want to, not going, and even crying for help towards the poor scholar. Never mind that the poor scholar didnt have the ability to save her, even if he did, towards such a woman that abandoned him, and humiliated him, he still wouldnt help. For you to do this much, wasnt it precisely for the sake of entering the Governor-General Manor? Now that your wish has come true, you should be happy. Dont worry, later, I will go to your family and have the engagement withdrawn, definitely wont hold up your future prospects.

The girl first blanked, probably never expecting that the other party would be this heartless, shouting that she was wrong, begging him to save her. Unfortunately, everything no longer could be redeemed.

The crowd of young masters getting paraded through the streets, this was big news. Dont know how many pairs of eyes were drawn over, to the extent that the news spread more and more, gathering even more people over.

These people on normal days were mighty on all sides, and getting avoided like the plague made them immeasurably pleased, but now, they just hated that they cant squeeze into a crack. Of course, the ones with this thought were all those that still havent thoroughly corrupt. The majority however viciously glared at them, the threat obvious without stating. Just, what they got in exchange was the pain of the scabbard striking their body again.

That grimace in pain, and incomparably miserable look, practically made one clap in delight, and couldnt help but ask around in succession, exactly which capable person was able to have this bunch of evil tyrants pressed under control.

Thus, in a short period of time, the people of Kaiming just learned, a qinw.a.n.g of the current imperial court has arrived. The evil tyrants of Kaiming Fu, aside from the ones that didnt come out today, or didnt get along with the Governor-Generals son and thus didnt hang out together, the rest all fell into this w.a.n.gyes hands, getting roasted in one pot.

Although a portion of them witnessed that indescribable b.l.o.o.d.y scene, the majority of the people, especially the ones that have been oppressed before, were further willing to have this bit overlooked, just crying out: Well done!

Thats why, no matter how much of a tyrant, when encountering the wrong person, no matter how ruthless, one would still get easily crushed.

T/N: I feel like some subtle details may have gone over peoples heads, especially regarding the money, dont forget what initially triggered this whole matter, Li Hong Yuan wanting to deal with Rui Qinw.a.n.gs wallet, and how the other princes all have connections with this matter too. Its not just these officials h.o.a.rding money on their own. A lot of these officials all have their respective masters they serve.
