Chapter 351.2: Just the Aftermath Remaining

The old woman was very clear. Women with this kind of natural disposition were very scary. Tomorrow, will be sending you all and paternal aunt-in-law back to the main residence.

Since the anti-aging pill has already been sent over, then indeed should go back. As such, will be trouble tang great-aunt.

The Pei Xiu Ying at this moment appeared very normal, but the old woman kept feeling that her insides were all dark, even concealing a venomous snake, still harboring hatred, the kind that might pick someone to devour at any time.

She didnt say anything at all, just wanting to quickly leave.

Respectfully seeing off tang great-aunt. Pei Xiu Ying curtsied with proper bearing.

Very soon, only Pei Xiu Ying and her two servant girls were left in the room.

The servant girls curled up in fear. They also sensed that their master right now was very scary, because this reaction simply wasnt normal.

Although the Pei clan leader madam occasionally would wake up, this situation still didnt allow for one to be optimistic, all having the possibility of letting out the final breath at any time. If able to endure until returning to the main residence before dying, it was also not bad, thus quickly preparing to send them back, and Li Hong Yuans people also wont block anymore.

What was worth mentioning was that after not hearing any news from Chuanzhou Fus side for a long time, the Pei clan leader was also faintly uneasy inside, sending someone to Chuanzhou Fu. However, that person was also considered clever. After detecting that something was wrong, they didnt approach the Pei clan residence, immediately spurring the horse and rus.h.i.+ng back. When the Pei clan leader received news, the uneasiness inside grew increasingly obvious, continuously feeling that something big will happen. After repeated hesitation, he decided to personally take a trip to Chuanzhou Fu. Afterwards, when nearing Chuanzhou Fu, he ran into the Pei clan leader madam and them on their way back.

After just briefly understanding the situation, the Pei clan leader who was able to smile at any time, his face thoroughly sunk, an unprecedented solemnness. His five fingers couldnt help but buckle into the hollow of his palm. Things have thoroughly exceeded his control. Some things perhaps really were taken for granted by him, but he didnt believe this was where all the fault was at.

Although he sensed Pei Xiu Yings abnormality, at this time, it wasnt the time to console her. This great-granddaughters character and conduct were all taught by him. For Jin Qinw.a.n.gs matter to go beyond expectations, it was due to his lack of understanding. As for Pei Xiu Ying, the Pei clan leader really didnt believe she can cause any big waves. Later, he can just nicely console her. The top priority at present were those renowned great scholars, absolutely cant let Li Hong Yuan ruin them for real. Once theyre ruined, the Pei clan really wont have a chance at reviving again.

The Pei clan leader also understood, because Jin Qinw.a.n.g deliberately sealed off the information, by the time he received news, it was very likely that it was already late, but he cant sit and wait for death either. After writing the letter, it was sent out in the quickest speed. At the same time, he also wrote letters to the various in-law families, the contents expressing all kinds of care, then mentioning certain people from their family clan.

In essence, it was the exact same ploy the Pei clan leader used to threaten the Min clan at the time, just he didnt point out directly, thats all. However, no one was an idiot, how can they not make out the threat within.

Once those people received the letter, they all turned deathly pale, probably not expecting that the Pei clan leader would be this despicable and shameless. However, because the matter emerged suddenly, they were also puzzled inside. Did something happen for that Pei old thing to suddenly put out their family clans blackmail material? Clearly things were different from usual.

Afterwards, when those renowned scholars of the Pei clan met with mishap one after another, they finally came to realization. Someone wanted to deal with the Pei clan, and moreover, was aiming at the roots, vigorously chopping swing by swing, making one feel alarmed and fearful. Whether or not they should help out the Pei clan became a big problem. If they help, in turn offending the person going against the Pei clan, who knows whether or not they will become the next target. But if they dont help, that Pei old thing grasped information against them, so they might get dragged down by him at any time.

Of course, these were all later words, temporarily dont need to mention.

The Pei clan leader wrote the letters and ordered to return to Pei County. Including his severely ill old wife, he also didnt go take a glance at, just closing his eyes to rest, contemplating his next move.

Meanwhile, Jing Wan and them also packed up, preparing to leave Chuanzhou Fu, leaving for the next fu.

The accompany officials naturally needed to stay behind to continue laboring away, all the way until the new officials arrive.

Have to say, towards Jin Qinw.a.n.g leaving, the entire Chuanzhou Fu, from all the officials above, down to the ordinary commoners of varying social status below, not one didnt relax a breath. There were even those that secretly rejoiced and celebrated. For the ordinary commoners, punis.h.i.+ng the corrupt officials was something worth being happy over, but too much unrest would only make them fearful. Thats why, it was better for him to be leaving.

Jiangnans four prefecture and twenty-eight fu, Li Hong Yuan actually planned on visiting each fu one by one, but because at present, the matters for the most part can be considered to be done, in the later fu, they can just follow the set pattern. And if encountering a special circ.u.mstance, then it was just specially handling. Precisely as the so called killing the chicken to warn the monkey, the living Enma was truly too ruthless, not leaving any face, not afraid of offending anyone, so naturally at this time, no one dared to stroke the tigers whiskers. For everyday that Jin Qinw.a.n.g stays in Jiangnan, all the officials needed to tuck their tails between their legs, including those in the neighboring prefectures. At this time, everyone were all careful and cautious.

The main matter although needed to continue taking care of, it was nevertheless much more relaxed. Right now, it was just playing around as the main priority.

Sitting on the boat, Jing Wan leaned against the window, enjoying the breeze, incomparably content.

Bai Shao and Fu Xiao both chose to leave along with without the slightest hesitation. If they stay in Chuanzhou Fu, based on Jing Wans personality, she will certainly leave at least two personal servants to take care of them. And the people by Jing Wans side werent many to begin with. Going together, they can just randomly draw some time to look after them, and the rest of the time, it wont affect serving Jing Wan.

In Jing Wans eyes, this way was also the best. After all, Gong Jiu certainly will leave with them. With Gong Jiu looking after them from time to time, it naturally will make one even more rea.s.sured.

Bai Shaos wound, after sewing together, recovered very quickly. After sleeping on the bed for a few days, she also slowly got down from the bed to walk around.

Gong Jiu took note of her condition at all times, preparing to have this method perfected and recorded. Towards the critical treatment of external wounds, this will become a very important procedure. For ordinary people, it was hard to say. After all, there was the saying of the body, hair, and skin, all a gift from ones parent, not daring to damage

, but on the battlefield, it wasnt the same. This might be able to preserve even more peoples life.

And Fu Xiao, because only had superficial wounds, also for the most part all formed scabs. However, the injured areas truly were too many, and densely packed too. Just slightly moving, the areas that have formed into a scab will also tear with pain, so to want to freely move around, similarly still needed to wait a period of time.

The recovery was well, and the mentality also appeared to not have any problems, so Jing Wan naturally felt a lot more relieved.

Perhaps for the sake of looking after their situation, they still utilized the waterways. However, the fu that can be directly reached by the waterways wasnt the closest fu to Chuanzhou Fu.

The two of them took it all to heart, feeling moved inside. They didnt say anything, just further motivated to get well, hoping to get better sooner, so that they can better serve Jing Wan.

Jing Wans intention, Li Hong Yuan naturally understood too. In any case, their return to the capital was still undetermined, so taking a bit of a detour wasnt a problem either. However, occasionally, whenever Li Hong Yuan would see Bai Shao and Fu Xiao slightly moving about outside, that gaze was also like looking at a dead person. Just two lowly servants, yet can also divide his wifes attention. If not that Wan Wan would get angry, he definitely wouldve directly slaughtered them.

When Fu Xiao encountered this kind of situation for the first time, she also nearly went limp in the legs. Bai Shao was actually still okay, and towards this kind of matter, can be considered accustomed to. Thats why, once Li Hong Yuan left, she just calmly patted Fu Xiaos shoulder, Its nothing. w.a.n.gye just has w.a.n.gfei viewed too importantly, unable to tolerate w.a.n.gfeis gaze landing on others. However, as long as we properly serve w.a.n.gfei, w.a.n.gye at most would just have a cold face. w.a.n.gfei is actually the biggest boss, so just avoid w.a.n.gye as much as possible.

Fu Xiao pursed her lips and lightly smiled.
