Chapter 437: Jin Qinw.a.n.g Falls Unconscious

When the Cang Jin emissaries were leaving, Jing Wan even went to see them off. Jing Wan having dealings with the people of Cang Jin wasnt really considered a secret. Anyone that wanted to know naturally were able to found out. Because of this layer of relations, among the selected gifts for Cang Jin, there was a bit more of dry goods. Sir Luo was quite bold and upright in handling, but of course, it wont be too obvious either. Even if others really wanted to nitpick, they still wont be able to pick anything out. Jing Wan even personally prepared a gift, and the private goods mixed in definitely werent few either. However, it inevitably needed to be contemplated over again and again, and after choosing, it was even given to Li Hong Yuan to look over. The things that truly cant be given definitely cannot exist.

Jin Qinw.a.n.g was still being grounded.

After Jing Wan saw off the people, she returned to the city and saw the Former Wei first princes carriage. Because her carriage was relatively ordinary, the other party didnt notice her. Jing Wan naturally didnt have anything to express, the half-hanging curtains still suspended. As for whether or not there was any thoughts inside, there was no way of finding out.

Speaking of which, right now, there were just two countries left that were still in Qi Yuans capital. One was Former Wei, and the other was West Xiongnu.

The people of these two countries, ever since Le Cheng Emperors birthday, can be said to have been continuously arguing.

When it comes to having a good mouth, Former Wei that came from the same roots as Qi Yuan certainly had West Xiongnu sprayed full of saliva, but when it comes to individual strength, West Xiongnus fist certainly were harder. Moreover, the majority of these people all had a blunt personality, not understanding the golden mean

. Since they were unable to beat them with words, then it was just unhesitantly using the fist. At this time, they wont care about diplomatic relations and whatnot. The princess that was prepared for West Xiongnu, in the end, got sent onto the Qi Yuan Emperors bed, so theyd long shed all pretense of cordiality.

Because the people of West Xiongnu completely didnt act according to common sense, the Former Wei first prince recently can be said to be badly burned in the head. Of course, there were still some matters that was able to make one slightly rejoice a little.

This matter, because West Xiongnu from beginning to end refused to let go, naturally just disputed endlessly. However, this while, it was just their two countries left. They cant just stay here forever and not leave, right? Thats why, to want to continue battling, it was probably just returning to their respective homes, and afterwards, continue brandis.h.i.+ng the blade through national letters. To fight with real swords and spears was actually impossible, because the two countries didnt neighbor one another. It was impossible for Qi Yuan to lend the way, and the other countries further wont stupidly give them pa.s.sage. Wasnt that just equal to leading the wolf into the home?

Thats why, no matter how intense it got, it can only just be a battle of words, and West Xiongnu was destined to never win. As such, for the Former Wei first prince, although it was tiring, after going back, there wasnt too much to worry about. After all, to want to bring this matter full circle, it wasnt particularly hard either.

What he needed to do right now was to go see that good younger sister of his that became Qi Yuans Xian Consort, and get that most important bargaining chip that can shake up Great Weis crown prince. Although that younger sister ultimately wasnt able to completely get what she desired, but she was still able to stay in Qi Yuan after all, escaping from her imagined days of suffering. When all was said and done, it was still him having her grasped in his palm.

During this period of time, for Xian Consort Wei, because the imperial consorts in the imperial harem all didnt have the energy to pay attention to her, and Le Cheng Emperor had matters to attend to, and even when free, would spend his time staring at the Imperial n.o.ble Consorts painting, acting deeply infatuated, even holding in his sleep, Xian Consort Wei, this person, probably all forgotten by him, in addition to him disliking Xian Consort Wei to begin with, she naturally didnt even get to see his face once.

An imperial consort that the emperor ignored, even if occupying the high position of Xian Consort, no other consorts would be willing to go look for. Additionally, right now, the inner palace didnt have anyone in charge. Those with the rank of an imperial concubine all began to stir restlessly. In the past, there wasnt the opportunity, so they never thought of it before, but now was different. To not grasp this opportunity, it was practically just letting oneself down, so they further didnt have the energy to spare on Xian Consort Wei.

In addition, she was ultimately Former Weis princess. The people of Former Wei havent left yet, so they certainly wont be harsh towards her in terms of food and clothing. As such, during this period of time, Xian Consort Weis days were actually still pretty good. Towards not being able to marry into Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor, her discontent and resentment all dispelled quite a bit. However, because she wasnt able to obtain, her heart would just further long for, and moreover, how many women in their youth didnt yearn for an attractive young man, instead willingly have ones entire life devoted to an old man, especially for someone like Princess Yi Ning who was prideful and conceited. Thats why, that thorn in the bottom of her heart forever wont be pulled out. Moreover, the richer her days were, the stronger this kind of mentality will become. Who knows when it will just explode out.

The Former Wei first prince wanting to meet with Xian Consort Wei before leaving was also a reasonable request. Le Cheng Emperor indifferently agreed.

Xian Consort Wei previously, under this older brothers hand, was all sullen and at a disadvantage, so this time, she just completely put on airs. After all, right now, she was Le Cheng Emperors Xian Consort, and this older brother of hers was merely Great Weis prince, completely not on the same level. Thats why, sitting in the main seat, she nonchalantly cracked the melon seeds. Seeing the first prince walk in, she also just lifted her eyelids, not saying a word.

The Former Wei first prince had an understanding inside, but it didnt matter, regardless of what kind of att.i.tude this imperial younger sister had, some things cant be changed. Even if she sat onto her current position, to want to have her pulled down wasnt anything difficult either.

Greetings to Qi Yuans Xian Consort. For the sake of achieving his goal, wasnt it just lowering himself a little, he didnt mind at all.

Xian Consort Wei felt both delighted and vexed inside. What was delightful was that this imperial brother would also have such a day, but what was vexing was that the other party was too straightforward. Moreover, this way, she wont even have an excuse to lash out at him. However, Xian Consort Wei still didnt want to that straightforwardly have certain things told to him, even though the final outcome was all the sameIt was impossible for her to not say!

The Former Wei first prince spent quite some time at Xian Consort Weis place, but when leaving, his mood was very good. It was obvious, what he obtained perhaps wasnt as simple as just a few words.

Afterwards, he went to see Le Cheng Emperor again, saying a pile of superficial words, asking Le Cheng Emperor to take care of Xian Consort Wei lots and so on, and lastly, bid his farewells.

The people of Former Wei left Qi Yuan the next day, and shortly after, it was the people of West Xiongnu.

However, not long after they left Qi Yuans capital, Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor just exploded, because Jin Qinw.a.n.g strangely just fell unconscious. Even Gong Jiu, whod already returned to the manor, all had his hands tied, simply unable to find the reason.

The news pa.s.sed on into the palace, and Le Cheng Emperor directly exploded too. All the imperial physicians had gone to Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor, but the outcome was still the same. This kind of situation persisted for two days. Le Cheng Emperor could no longer sit still, personally leaving the palace.

But, even if Le Cheng Emperor was the son of heaven, possessing the dragons aura, at this time, it was also useless, not having any use at all. Aside from getting angry, being violent and furious, it was also just that. Saying he was going to execute all the imperial physicians, that was also just saying, because in reality, even if executed, it was still useless.

At this time, others persuasion all didnt have any use, and only Jing Wans words still had some effect, so she naturally needed to console.
