Chapter 397.3: Deal, First Time Planning

The Former Wei first prince continued speaking, As for the matters outside, this is Qi Yuans capital city, and not our Great Weis capital city. In the entire inn, theres also Qi Yuans people everywhere. Our daily meals all need to depend on them, so some things cant be controlled. However, think of it in a positive light, for the people of Qi Yuan to push along the waves this much, presumably they are also interested in your idea. The reason why youre getting stepped on, its also nothing more than lowering your worth, so as to seek benefits for their Qi Yuan.

Why are they doing this to me? Princess Yi Ning was both sad and angry, her tears streaming down.

Really a stupid girl, is there even a need to ask why for this kind of thing? Great Wei and Qi Yuan are enemies. Then, belittling the other party, isnt that only natural? Moreover, for women, only by upholding their position and waiting to be sought after for marriage can it raise their value. Throwing oneself forward on ones own, no matter how n.o.ble, thats still lowly like mud. The Former Wei first prince softly chuckled.

Hearing such blunt mockery, Princess Yi Ning angrily glared at him.

The Former Wei first prince was unconcerned. Right now, they were temporarily on the same boat, but it didnt mean that he will just a hundred percent indulge her. To want to achieve ones goal, one naturally needs to endure. Yi Ning, if you feel you cant take it anymore, this older brother will go meet with Qi Yuans Emperor, letting him have this matter suppressed down. In fact, we can even counterattack and say that Qi Yuan has damaged our Great Wei princesss reputation, extorting benefits from Qi Yuans Emperor from within. Just, in this way, what you want will no longer be possible.

No! Princess Yi Ning immediately voiced her objection. Recalling Qi Yuan Jin Qinw.a.n.gs appearance and bearing, it just made her face uncontrollably blush and her heart race. She has never seen such a good looking man before. Since her first awakening of love, this was truly the first time her heart has been moved. In the past, those outstanding n.o.ble young masters of Great Wei that she once hazily liked, in the moment she saw Qi Yuans Jin Qinw.a.n.g, just got tossed beyond the clouds.

The Former Wei first prince watched her instantly turn bashful. Without needing to guess, he just knew what she was thinking. Their Great Weis most esteemed princess, this willingly lowering herself, no wonder others would step on her. With her like this, even if she gets what she wants, in the end, she wont have a good end either. Getting muddled by love and romance, not considering the two countries situation, thinking that if she throws herself forward, she will just be able to obtain the pampering she wants? Think she some heavenly beauty, or have the skills the control anothers heart? Qi Yuans Jin Qinw.a.n.g, that kind of person, at a glance, one can just tell that hes gone through countless beauties. An enemy countrys princess, this is specifically offering oneself up to be humiliated and shamed?

Thats why, since Princess Yi Ning was like this herself, then no matter how unpleasant the words were outside, she could only endure.

Although this for the most part can be considered within expectation, the Former Wei first prince still felt that there was something strange. The ruckus was truly a bit overboard. After all, if Yi Nings reputation is too unsightly, then even if Qi Yuan accepts her, they would still get denounced by others. After all, for a man, if a woman by their side is too terrible, then generally, would all get sneered at and ridiculed. Unless.Qi Yuan merely just wants to take the opportunity to belittle Great Wei by stepping on Yi Ning, and simply never thought of wanting this person.

As soon as he thought of this possibility, the Former Wei first prince just slightly narrowed his eyes.

However, doing this didnt conform with the convention of benefits. No matter what, it was accepting the person that was more beneficial, damaging Great Weis face and obtaining a beauty in the process. Additionally, Great Wei, for the sake of not letting the face be even more unsightly, will certainly prepare a very ample dowry. In contrast, Qi Yuan wont have any betrothal gift. In any case, it was you offering yourself up, so who cares if you want to marry or not. Moreover, its not as the main wife, so there werent that many rules and etiquette to emphasize on. Besides, for things to have become this messy, if Qi Yuan doesnt accept the person, then there was just death waiting for Yi Ning. Once the person dies, the matters before will just be wiped clean. Great Wei will certainly turn around and attack Qi Yuan for it. This was obvious and easy to see. It was impossible for Qi Yuan to be unclear of this. Then, where exactly did the problem lie?

Where did the problem lie? On Qi Yuans side, including people like Le Cheng Emperor, they also wanted to know where the problem lay too.

However, while the Former Wei first prince believed there was a conspiracy, Qi Yuans side similarly believed there was a conspiracy. After hearing those rumors, and the people of Former Wei didnt come look for Le Cheng Emperor first thing to have the matter suppressed, they just knew this matter most likely was true. Just, what was strange was, even if Princess Yi Ning had the thought on her own, the Former Wei first prince, as well as the Former Wei high officials, had no reason to be muddled along with her. To not even hesitate to have the reputation ruined, letting this matter escalate this much, to say there was no plot, who would believe?

But, after racking their brains, they still couldnt figure out what exactly Former Wei wanted to do.

Actually, certain officials of Qi Yuan probably still had an understanding inside, especially our Head Minister of Appointments. However, no one would say it, thats all.

Indeed, by looking for the living Enma, the male lead of this scandalous incident, he perhaps will tell you where exactly the problem was.

Speaking of which, the source of this matter was still on Princess Min Xiang. It was her unknowingly having this matter prodded out. Princess Yi Ning hasnt even done anything yet.

In Jing Wans eyes, even if its wanting to do a bit of something, still need to wait until Princess Yi Ning comes looking. Afterwards, she once again witnessed her own husbands methods.

It was merely just pa.s.sing along an order, practically cant be too skilled.

Just, this kind of method that was further prevalent in the inner manor, Jing Wan felt, having the living Enma come use, seemingly was a bit out of character. Thus, she unhesitantly asked him directly.

Li Hong Yuan helplessly laughed, hugging Jing Wan and caressing her hair. She was quite smart, yet how come she just got stuck on this kind of problem, For things such as methods, there is no good or bad. As long as able to perfectly reach ones goal, then can just use different methods on different people. One cant, because a man used an inner manors method, just feel the other party isnt like a man. One has to know, for some people, you really cant use too fancy methods, because it wont be effective.

Black cat, white cat, as long as its a cat that can catch mice, then its a good cat.

Li Hong Yuan lifted his brow, This description, although isnt completely correct, its still more or less accurate.

I know, after all, methods are picked according to the person, but one doesnt need to look at the color of the cats fur for catching mice. It was just me thinking in the wrong direction, thats all. It was probably because of having heard remarks such as a grown man using a womans method is particularly petty, thus momentarily got stuck.

Actually, these all arent important. This time, its still mainly for telling Wan Wan, towards ones enemy, even if the other party still hasnt done anything, one still needs to make preparation in advance. Even if not directly putting to death, one still needs to prepare for the rain, letting one be in an invincible position for future plans. In the end, you are still too soft. If others dont do anything, you wont take action either. Moreover, for some things, by the time something really happens, perhaps it will be too late to do anything. Guarding against is a good thing, but theres only those who are thieves for an eternity, and not those who guard against thieves for an eternity

. The best way is to just have the thief uncovered, and towards this kind of obvious enemy, one should further make the first move to gain the upper hand.

Jing Wan instantly understood. Although the matter this time, Li Hong Yuan perhaps was somewhat making a big fuss over a minor issue, but what about other matters in the future? What about those enemies that constantly want to take ones life? Can one even continue to pa.s.sively wait for the enemy to make a move first? Even if guarding against, one still cant guarantee that one can be perfectly safe at all times.

Right now wasnt comparable to her time in the Luo family. No matter how ugly of a matter, back then, it was actually all just small skirmishes, and it further was unable to be compared with her past lifeAt present, even the slightest pretext can just end ones life. Even if not for oneself, one still needs to do something for the people one cares about. If one really were to wait until the moment that something happens to change, then perhaps it really will be too late.

Jing Wan hugged Li Hong Yuan, having her head buried in his neck, Ah Yuan, I know, I know.

[1] This is an expression meaning that its very difficult to guard against thieves forever. An easier explanation would be, a thief can eye you day and night, waiting for you to relax your guard, but for those guarding against thieves, its impossible to constantly be on guard. Thats why, its better to catch the thief first, than to continuously be on guard.
