Chapter 466.4: See Who Has Better Skills

In reality, which ones had the intention, Li Hong Yuan had long ordered people to investigate clearly, and those young ladies’ moral character also all got cleanly dug through. However, Li Hong Yuan didn’t look over at all, directly indicating to just pick the kind that appeared pretty good in all kinds of ways on the surface, but were thoroughly rotten on the inside. As such, when taking action, don’t need to hesitate in the slightest, and even if Jing Wan finds out, based on her somewhat evil-hating nature, don’t need to worry about her not having the heart again.

Afterwards, exactly which two to pick, Shu Consort Qin actually already received definite news. As such, she didn’t have the slightest mental burden, exchanging her opinion with Noble Consort Su. As a result, Noble Consort Su, who was kept in the dark, also felt it was not bad. Most importantly, one of them was a Su family daughter.

That year, when Noble Consort Su was selecting a main consort for Li Hong Yuan, the first one was precisely a Su family young lady, yet in the end, it was that kind of outcome, so she naturally felt regretful inside. Right now, although it was sending in a side consort, but with her assisting from behind, in the future, it wasn’t necessarily impossible for them to sit on the main consort position.

In reality, exactly who sat in the main consort position, Noble Consort Su actually didn’t have any complaints, but because Jing Wan was disobedient towards her, very much disliked by her, that’s why, towards having Jing Wan kicked down, she was still deeply committed.

In other words, from the start, Li Hong Yuan never planned on looking for Le Cheng Emperor. What kind of personality Le Cheng Emperor had, he was very clear. The things he has truly set his mind on were very difficult to change. As such, Li Hong Yuan was also too lazy to waste his breath with him. Even if refusing this time, as long as those officials don’t give up, there will just be a second and third time. That’s why, it was better to have it taken care of once and for all.

After determining the candidates, the next day, the imperial decree was issued.

The high officials and nobles of the capital for the most part immediately learned about it first thing.

Those that had the thought but didn’t get picked naturally violently threw a tantrum again, and those that didn’t have the thought greatly relaxed a breath.

However, for those that cared about Jing Wan, they naturally sent letters to inquire, yet didn’t dare to state clearly, fearing that she will be heartbroken.

And what Jing Wan replied with was just a total of two words: ‘Rest assured’.

What it meant specifically, they didn’t understand, yet it wasn’t good to continue asking either.

Because it was just a side consort, there weren’t that many rules. The time for having the person lifted into Jin Qinwang Manor was set half a month later.

Jin Qinwang Manor didn’t give out any information. As such, everyone could only quietly wait.

And afterwards, Noble Consort Su just rather secretively had the two prepared girls separately sent over. Noble Consort Su sending someone at this time, what it meant, everyone was all well aware inside. That’s why, even if feeling sullen, still can only accept.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Time quickly passed, and ten days went by just like that. Afterwards, the capital exploded with a sudden clap of thunder again. One of the side consorts appointed for Jin Qinwang had gone to White Dragon Temple to thank the heavens, but somewhere along the way, the ground suddenly sunk into a hole. The horse sprained its leg, causing the horse carriage to overturn. That girl got flung out from the horse carriage, her head coincidentally knocking against a rock. The person just fainted on the spot. By the time she was sent back to the manor and treated, the person had already become foolish.

One has to know, in the horse carriage, there were also two servant girls, and also a carriage driver in front. All of them had similarly gotten thrown off, yet at most, it was just some scratches. Aside from this, there was nothing at all. In this kind of situation, no one would feel it was human caused, because it was truly too coincidental.

Many people all began muttering inside, could it be that Jin Qinwang not only cursed wives, he also cursed concubines?

And the most alarmed was still that young lady’s family, because the palace maid Noble Consort Su sent over that was obviously prepared for Jin Qinwang, when watching the medicine stove for that young lady, the medicine pot on the stove strangely exploded, afterwards injuring her face.

Having reached such a step, how could they still have the courage to have their family’s young lady sent to Jin Qinwang Manor.

The remaining Su family young lady immediately became a startled bird, trembling with fear. Even when eating and drinking, it was all being extra careful. The palace maid by her side was also deeply affected. Regardless of what kind of beautiful future Noble Consort Su promised her, with her life being threatened, how can she still think of other things. Even so, that palace maid, in the end, stepped on a previously lost pearl, and just like that, violently fell onto the ground. She didn’t injure her face, and didn’t injure her limbs, but strangely injured her ear.

That Su family young lady nearly went mad. She will be going to Jin Qinwang Manor the next day, yet at this time, shouted that she didn’t want to marry. Similarly, the overflowing wealth and honor, one needed to live to enjoy. However, it was already at this critical juncture, so how can they allow her to not ‘marry’.

And Noble Consort Su who learned of these situations, her complexion was also especially ugly, but she was completely helpless, because these incidents, no matter how one looked at it, all didn’t seem human caused.

And on the day to formally enter the gates, Jin Qinwang Manor similarly prepared a banquet. However, all the guests that got invited all didn’t dare to visit, all still waiting to see. If this Su-shi can smoothly enter the gates, then they will go. If not, then it was better to just pretend that they didn’t know about this matter at all.

Although it wasn’t the main consort, not needing Li Hong Yuan to personally escort, the etiquette also far inferior, but it was still a side consort, so a certain degree of grandeur was still needed.

Miss Su violently cried, unwilling to get on the sedan. Without much choice, the Su family could only use a bit of medicine on her. But, fearing that something might happen, they used a very small amount, just letting her sleep for a while.

Midway, Miss Su just woke up, struggling for a bit inside the ‘marriage sedan’. Judging from the disturbance, the people outside instead felt that the situation was still pretty good. At least, she was still in ‘high-spirits’.

Perhaps having accepted her fate, towards the end, she also settled down.

Reaching the side gate of Jin Qinwang Manor, Eunuch Mu, as the chief steward, was waiting there. Just, when the matron of honor entered the sedan, preparing to have the person helped out, she immediately just stumbled back out, her complexion deathly pale as she tremblingly pointed at the sedan……….

“What, did the person die?” Eunuch Mu had an unhappy look, going to lift open the sedan himself, “To think she really died, how unlucky.” However, there wasn’t the slightest surprise on his face, seemingly as if this was completely within expectation, “Someone come, go invite the manor doctor to see how the person died.”

Compared to Eunuch Mu, the others that came with the bride weren’t as calm, each and every one all retreating far away.

Eunuch Mu indifferently swept them a glance, “It’s not like you’re the one marrying our wangye, can wangye even curse you all? This eunuch has followed wangye since childhood, yet has always been perfectly fine.”

These words practically just solidified the fact that the person in the sedan really got cursed by Jin Qinwang, and even worse than the other girl, directly losing her life.

The one that came this time actually wasn’t Gong Jiu, but rather the previous manor doctor of Jin Qinwang Manor.

He went in to check, and very quickly retreated out, “Eunuch Mu, this young lady got frightened to death.”

“Tsk, in other words, this can’t be blamed on our wangye. However, she’s also one that doesn’t have good fortune, having such small guts. Enough, just send her back to wherever she came from. A dead person, even thinking of entering Jin Qinwang Manor?” Eunuch Mu flung his sleeves, leading the people of Jin Qinwang Manor back inside, shutting the gates with a thud.

The people that came with the bride looked to one another in dismay, and in the end, could only tremblingly have the person sent back to the Su family. They absolutely didn’t dare to cause a scene outside Jin Qinwang Manor.

Eunuch Mu said it had nothing to do with Jin Qinwang, but they didn’t believe it in the slightest.

Because many people were watching, the matter of the Su family young lady dying and getting sent back to the Su family immediately spread.

Well then, guess it was just back to their own business, no need to go to Jin Qinwang Manor anymore. And on the inside, they actually had a feeling of ‘as expected’.

The news spread into the palace. The cup in Noble Consort Su’s hand slipped, shattering into pieces. And Le Cheng Emperor was also blankly in a daze, in the end, letting out a sigh, just having this matter tossed aside, not bothering with anymore, not having the slightest sense of guilt of an innocent person ending up like this because of a line from him.

And in Jin Qinwang Manor, Li Hong Yuan smilingly held Jing Wan, smiling more and more happily, even having his face buried in Jing Wan’s neck, his two shoulders lightly trembling, appearing especially excited.

Jing Wan originally wanted to ask exactly what happened, for everything to have been this coincidental, but seeing him like this, she didn’t want to ask anymore.
