Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 407.2: Want to Live or Die?

The Former Wei first prince’s complexion also wasn’t that good, but this while, he ultimately didn’t lash out. He although was an emissary, representing Great Wei, in the end, he was still just a prince. Towards the other small countries, he naturally was high and above, but facing countries that were equal in power to Great Wei, he ultimately didn’t dare to strongly defy. After all, the only one capable of speaking with the other party as equals was just his old man.

Speaking of which, although Le Cheng Emperor felt this was a conspiracy, how did the Former Wei first prince not necessarily think this too? They were on someone else’s territory, yet when something happened to his younger sister, he only received news after everything was done? If that good younger sister of his had ended up sleeping with the person she’d taken a fancy to, then it was still possible for it to have been her throwing herself forward on her own, but the target was instead Qi Yuan’s Emperor. In terms of age, he was a rotten old man that was all able to be Yi Ning’s grandfather. What kind of personality Yi Ning had, he was very clear. That pride was higher than the heavens. Would she, for the sake of avoiding going to a barbaric place for a political marriage, just pick Le Cheng Emperor, this kind of person, to wrong herself? Even if the sun rose from the west, it all wasn’t possible. In addition, when plotting the matter regarding Qi Yuan’s Jin Qinwang previously, in his eyes, this for the most part was something set in stone, so it was impossible for her to cause more trouble. Thus, without a doubt, this was certainly Qi Yuan’s scheme. If not Le Cheng Emperor, then it was just someone else.

“Eldest imperial brother, what happened?” Former Wei fifth prince at this time put on a deeply concerned expression.

The Former Wei first prince simply didn’t even bother looking at him, “Qi Yuan Emperor, please allow this prince to leave one’s seat first.” And without waiting for Le Cheng Emperor’s response, he just stormed off.

The Former Wei fifth prince naturally was unwilling to let himself be treated as such, so without another word, he also just followed after.

Despite getting his face swept like this, Le Cheng Emperor in the end didn’t lash out. However, that complexion was growing increasingly dark. Some people indeed have might without anger, but as the esteemed emperor, once angered, although it won’t be as terrifying as having millions of corpses afloat, but as one can imagine, at this time, no one would dared to rashly got forward to invite bad luck.

What the Former Wei first prince wanted to do, one didn’t even need to think to know. He ultimately needed to learn from Princess Yi Ning the cause and effect. Because something like this had happened, Le Cheng Emperor naturally just reinforced the security. This while, some people could no longer casually walk around the imperial palace. That’s why, even if the Former Wei first prince went over, it was at most just understanding the situation from Princess Yi Ning.

Although not many knew about this matter, it wasn’t necessary to conceal either. Moreover, for this kind of thing, it was always the woman suffering a loss. Le Cheng Emperor still had gloomy air lodged in his chest, so he simply didn’t issue a sealing order. As such, after he came over, before this play could even finish, quite a few people all learned of this matter, especially the imperial consorts and various princes.

For the majority of the people, they all didn’t have any reaction on the surface, but on inside, it wasn’t the same. Just, the direction of their thoughts varied respectively, that’s all. However, there really weren’t many that truly cared about this matter. After all, this matter inherently involved the relations between countries, so it had nothing to do with their own internal struggle for power.

Just, on the male side, quite a few swept a glance at Li Hong Yuan, and on the female side, Jing Wan more or less encountered the same treatment. However, no matter how you stare, as the party involved, they both just ignored, having a sense of powerlessness like punching cotton.

With Le Cheng Emperor watching over with a dark expression, the lively atmosphere naturally just dwindled. Clearly the performers on the stage were still singing, but the entire atmosphere was nevertheless like as if no one was listening. As such, the people of the acting troupes naturally just trembled in fear as well. Because they didn’t know where the problem lie, they were increasingly careful and cautious, and towards the people that didn’t go on stage, they also exceedingly restricted. At this time, they didn’t wish for accomplishments or praises, just wishing to have no faults. The troupe leaders repeatedly warned the people below, don’t have thoughts that one shouldn’t have. After all, for people like them, if one person makes a mistake, it would usually implicate the entire troupe.

The cause and effect of the entire incident was very quickly investigated. It was handled by the Great Commander of the Imperial Guards bringing along some of the imperial guards together with the personal attendant by Le Cheng Emperor’s side. The outcome they arrived at was just one word: coincidence.

When Le Cheng Emperor had gotten supported away to go rest, the people serving at his side were all his personal attendants and palace maids. Afterwards, there were people that had gone to see him, if not the imperial consorts, then it was just the princes, but for the most part, they all didn’t say or do anything either. Jin Qinwang had stayed the longest with him, but that was because Le Cheng Emperor had continuously clung onto him and wouldn’t let go. After Jin Qinwang left, there were similarly others that had gone over. Afterwards, Le Cheng Emperor, who was soundly sleeping, suddenly woke up and ran out on his own, even forbidding others from following. This bit, for Le Cheng Emperor, was actually easy to explain.

Afterwards, he just encountered the similarly drunk and randomly wandering Princess Yi Ning. According to the people by Princess Yi Ning’s side, their princess similarly didn’t allow anyone to follow her, but they for the most part all stood at a distant. Also, the imperial guards stationed in their positions all can attest, during this process, no one approached her.

Just like that, the two drunks ran into each other, then afterwards, strangely just rolled together.

Fortunately, they picked a nearby palace hall and didn’t do it out in the open. Everything progressed way too quickly. By the time the servants rushed over, the clothes were already stripped clean, entering the main topic. Princess Yi Ning didn’t struggle or scream. On the contrary, she was even quite enthusiastic, not the least bit like she was getting forced. If not for the bloodstains left behind, they really would’ve doubted this princess’s identity, and it was also because of this, the attendants by Le Cheng Emperor’s side blocked Princess Yi Ning’s servant girls. After all, their master was in the middle of something, so they only had the power to ‘assist’. Forget disturbing, not only did they have to have all the external factors all eliminated, they even needed to hastily bring over a brazier, having the room warmed up, so as to avoid letting their master catch a cold.

(T/N: Btw time-wise it’s still currently the afternoon when all this is taking place.)

All the suspicious things were examined, and not just once, but the final outcome was all the same.

Although it wasn’t some conspiracy, having obtained this kind of outcome, Le Cheng Emperor’s gloomy mood didn’t improve by much either, because he was very clear why he’d gone out. It was all because he’d dreamt of his Guan Guan, just the matters afterwards, he really wasn’t all that clear. Perhaps it was because he’d absent-mindedly mistaken the person.

As for the Former Wei first prince, he also wasn’t able to learn anything useful from Princess Yi Ning’s side. After carefully interrogating Princess Yi Ning’s servant girls, he also didn’t discover anything out of place. The servant girls were all brought over from Great Wei, so it was definitely impossible for them to get bribed. As for Princess Yi Ning, she just continuously cried. Based on the first prince’s understanding towards her, if she’d really gotten bullied, she would’ve long started throwing a fit. Judging from this appearance, she clearly still remembered some things, perhaps even the entire process.

The Former Wei first prince sinisterly looked to her. At this time, he really wished he could tear her apart alive.

Le Cheng Emperor had left people by Princess Yi Ning’s side to ‘serve’. Princess Yi Ning’s servant girls stammered and didn’t dare to say anything in detail, but they didn’t have this misgiving. Moreover, following by Le Cheng Emperor’s side, they didn’t ‘eavesdrop’ on Le Cheng Emperor’s bedroom matters any less, so they further didn’t have the slightest misgiving, practically just describing in vivid detail………….

If truly a girl that didn’t know anything at all, then even if drunk, still wouldn’t be that wanton and loose. That’s why, even if having bled, it still made people suspect that this princess’s body simply wasn’t clean. This seemingly just made them guess the reason why this princess had gotten ‘exiled’. Because of having done something shameful, even Great Wei’s capital city all couldn’t tolerate her, thus might as well just make use of her.

Although they just roughly expressed the former half, the Former Wei people that heard this naturally just thought of the latter half.

“Shut up!” Princess Yi Ning roared with a malevolent expression. That definitely was her sore spot.

That inner court attendant got frightened, but immediately after, began smiling again, “Why the need to be this angry princess? Regardless of what princess is like, it’s fine as long as our emperor likes, no?”

The underlying meaning was just the matter was already set in stone, winning Le Cheng Emperor’s favor was the only way out. Unfortunately, the inner court attendant was very clear, this Former Wei Princess has definitely incurred their master’s loathing. Even if giving a relatively high position, in the future, if she doesn’t walk with her tail between her legs, then she’ll definitely be very miserable. Although under normal circumstances, she won’t easily lose her life.

“Get lost.” The Former Wei first prince massaged between his brows as he pointed at the door.

This time, the inner court attendant was very perceptive, but the door was wide open, and outside, there were even imperial guards standing guard.

The Former Wei fifth prince this while was also too annoyed to continue staying here. He coldly sneered and just directly left. This stupid matter, he was too lazy to get involved in.

The Former Wei first prince looked to Princess Yi Ning, “Tell me, right now, do you want to die or live?”
