Chapter 383.3: The Harvest After Fishing
Don’t look at how Li Hong Yuan was still able to beat him up right now, he was very self-aware, one of the reasons was because of him painstakingly training himself all these years. In his past life, he was far inferior compared to now. The second reason was that it was very difficult for He Shi Hai to erupt without psychological pressure. Moreover, right now, he was just sixteen years old. In a few more years, when he fully matures, by that time, merely just using his arms and fingers, Li Hong Yuan all won’t be his opponent. This was He Shi Hai’s natural born advantage, occupying an absolute superiority, something that others, no matter how they train later in life, were all unable to reach.
He Shi Hai although was very adept at hiding from his own family, but compared to An Yi and them hiding in the dark, he was still lacking a little. After all, the people from the He family were soldiers. In this aspect, how can they compare with shadow guards. That’s why, when He Shi Hai stepped into this territory, the qinwang manor shadow guards already noticed, reporting to An Yi first thing. Thus, Li Hong Yuan naturally just learned about it.
“As long as he doesn’t climb over Jin Qinwang Manor’s wall, no need to bother with him.”
It’s not that the people of Jin Qinwang Manor weren’t surprised by his unexpected tolerance towards He Shi Hai, but they didn’t dare to question. In the past, didn’t he even ‘tolerate’ Ruan Fang Fei before? At the time, there was a purpose, so this time, it will certainly be the same. The people of Jin Qinwang Manor always believed in their own master.
Li Hong Yuan wanting to cultivate He Shi Hai, Jing Wan also knew, and she didn’t use this matter to tease him any less.
He Shi Hai in the end did worry that if he were to act too reckless, he will implicate his family. That’s why, he only dared to wander around outside Jin Qinwang Manor.
However, Li Hong Yuan, for the sake of fishing, his frequency in going out was actually relatively high. Of course, every time he went out, he all had a proper reason, so others won’t suspect anything.
Once or twice, occasionally right when He Shi Hai just got ignored by Li Hong Yuan, his older brother would just bring people to come catch him. Unfortunately, he would slip away every time.
This matter naturally became known to more and more people, practically another matter worth gossiping about.
Jin Qinwang’s usual style, that was something known to all. However, in these last two years, he’s actually restrained himself quite a bit. Discovering this bit just now, it can also be considered realizing in hindsight. However, the living Enma was the living Enma after all. He won’t because of not doing anything for a period of time just stop being the living Enma. Perhaps because that He family young master didn’t do anything, thus he got ignored. However, getting annoyed again and again, the living Enma most likely will start sorting out. There were even quite a few people all guessing, how long the He family young master can persist.
However, there really weren’t anyone that dared to be certain. Think back to when Jin Qinwang got engaged to Jin Wangfei, there were even people opening bets, seeing how long the Jin Wangfei can live, yet in the end, nothing happened to Jin Wangfei, nicely marrying into Jin Qinwang Manor with ten li of dowry, a hundred people blocking the procession, very much lively. Afterwards, someone opened bets again, seeing how long Jin Wangfei can last under Jin Qinwang, yet in the end, it similarly was beyond others’ expectation.
However, these all didn’t matter. It was fine as long as there was entertainment to be had.
In reality, it wasn’t just He Shi Hai getting ignored by Li Hong Yuan. There was actually another one, and that was just Li Hong Ming.
In the past, when meeting, Li Hong Yuan would at least still greet him. But now, when seeing him, it was completely ignoring. However, towards his other brothers, it was still considered normal.
At this time, Li Hong Ming also realized, the previous matter still wasn’t over with. Even if Li Hong Yuan has reconciled with their consort mother, it didn’t mean that it will also return to before with him.
Getting completely ignored by Li Hong Yuan wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. However, you need to ensure that in the future, you don’t provoke him. Else, by that time, he most likely will be ruthless to the extreme. And even if deliberately avoiding, one may not necessarily avoid provoking him. After all, normally, when getting sorted out by him, many times it was all quite baffling. In the past, because of Noble Consort Su, towards him, Li Hong Yuan was actually still considered merciful. The strength exerted on the other brothers was just three times what he suffered, so they were much more miserable than him. Speaking from this aspect, Li Hong Yuan can be said to be his greatest assistance. If in the future, Li Hong Yuan were to exert five times the strength on him, he can already imagine, how he will greatly suffer.
Thinking to here, Li Hong Ming’s complexion just turned exceptionally gloomy.
This matter, Noble Consort Su originally didn’t know, but Li Hong Ming, intentionally or otherwise, let her learn of it.
Thus, Noble Consort Su’s spirit wasn’t good for several days and started to wane again. Calling over Li Hong Ming, she directly asked, “Your younger brother helped you, yet you never went to thank him?”
Li Hong Ming bitterly smiled, “Consort mother, this son has been thinking about it all this time, just didn’t find an appropriate opportunity. With this hold up, sixth brother has just increasingly refused to give me an opportunity.”
Noble Consort Su directly smashed a cup at him, “What you’re thinking, this consort is very clear. On this matter, you’re hoping for this consort to help you. Either you take care of it yourself, or in the future, when he does something to you, just endure it on your own.” Yuan’er has always been one to take revenge when wronged, never letting anything sit through the night. For his anger to be this big this time, in the end, it was still because of her. He didn’t bicker with her, this consort mother, so naturally had all his anger shifted towards old three. Yet this bastard thing didn’t take it seriously. Now, finally realizing that something was wrong, he just looked for her.
Li Hong Ming could only leave Yucui Palace with a heavy expression.
Noble Consort Su rubbed her temples, “All say old six is an unfilial child, yet both old three and Min Xiang are just as unfilial, not a single one can spare me from worrying.”
The trusted palace maid at her side hurriedly consoled, while also lightly giving her a massage.
Since there wasn’t a way through Noble Consort Su, Li Hong Ming could only harden his face and go look for Li Hong Yuan. Exactly what it means for warm enthusiasm to be met with a cold face, Li Hong Ming can be considered to have thoroughly learned from experience.
Rui Qinwang visiting Jin Qinwang Manor, yet got shut outside the door, this matter just became a laughing matter between the brothers the next day.
Even if Li Hong Ming was accustomed to putting on an act, at this time, his face was also somewhat cracked.
On a rare occasion, he encountered Jin Qinwang being diligent for once, appearing in morning court.
After morning court ended, Li Hong Ming prepared to throw out his face. In of this many people, he wasn’t counting on being able to achieve his goal, but rather letting the court officials see his sincerity. In the future, when Li Hong Yuan tries to do something to him, they can also help say a few good words for him in front of imperial father. Just, human calculations cannot exceed the will of heaven. He was just about to go forward, when He Zhen Wei rushed in a step ahead of him.
“Greetings wangye.” First, that attitude was quite sincere.
“Something the matter?” Li Hong Yuan faintly casted him a glance.
“Wangye, regarding the matter of my son repeatedly blocking wangye in the past few days, this subject is here to apologize to wangye, asking for wangye’s forgiveness.”
“This prince wouldn’t go as far as to bicker with a young brat. Just, as the number of times increase, it would still make one annoyed. General He best look after a little. If there’s a next time, this prince may not necessarily let him leave in one piece.” Li Hong Yuan’s tone was still dull.
He Zhen Wei bitterly smiled, “Wangye, unbeknownst to you, this one’s son is obsessed with martial arts. Towards people with high martial art skills, he just can’t help but look for to exchange blows. Because of this, this subject didn’t reprimand him any less. Unfortunately, it has been completely useless. These last few days, he’s been scared of this subject locking him up, so just resolutely took some money and ran away from home. Under normal circumstances, we would be able to have him dragged back home, but this one’s son was already just good at hiding and swift at slipping away when back at the border town, truly making one headache.”
“What does this have to do with this prince?” A bit of impatience already started to appear on Li Hong Yuan’s face.
He Zhen Wei endured the impulse to wipe his own sweat. Facing Jin Qinwang, this pressure, sure enough, was quite big. But, if he doesn’t satisfy that bastard’s wish, then this matter will just go on forever. “This subject has a presumptuous request, asking if wangye can put down one’s status and let that bastard know that there are gods among men, perhaps then, he will be able to settle down.”
Li Hong Yuan coldly laughed, “Last time, your son injured this prince’s wangfei, so this prince let him suffer a bit of a lesson, and didn’t continue bickering with him, yet now you want to let this prince fight him, are you not afraid of this prince crippling him?”
He Zhen Wei didn’t feel that Li Hong Yuan was joking in the slightest, forcibly tugging the corner of his mouth, “If that’s really the case, then it’s also just his fate.”
