Chapter 414.2: The Truth Coming to Light? The Fourth One
Eunuch Mu made some light movements to the side, afterwards finally approaching, “Master, someone by Noble Consort’s side came. Just now, her Highness seemingly had invited the imperial physician.”
Li Hong Yuan lowered his head to drink tea, and Eunuch Mu soundlessly retreated again.
“Tonight, it’s inviting the imperial physicians one after another. Originally thought that this year’s longevity festival, the heavens would bless, but unfortunately, the people do not bless. This is probably more vexing than the heavens not blessing.”
Not long after, the person that came to see Li Hong Yuan just scaled the pavilion. It was still that previous inner court eunuch. Despite the cold weather, he was completely covered in sweat. It can be seen, just how fast he ran over. “Greetings wangye………..”
The bow was performed, but what awaited him wasn’t Jin Qinwang calling him to rise, but rather just, “Get lost!”
That inner court eunuch shook all over, but he didn’t dare to really get lost. If he doesn’t even deliver the message, then……….”Wangye, her Highness, she………..”
With a thud, a tea cup just blossomed on his forehead. Of course, his forehead also blossomed as well. Jin Qinwang didn’t use his mouth anymore, directly taking action.
Unable to deliver the message, after going back, one might suffer, but if this continues, then perhaps one might just lose one’s life here. Comparing the two and picking the lighter one, this can also be considered human instinct. That’s why, this inner court eunuch just covered his forehead and swiftly got lost.
Jin Qinwang right now was still angry, so not wanting to listen to matters regarding Noble Consort Su wasn’t that normal? And since he didn’t hear anything, then naturally he didn’t need to go see Noble Consort Su.
Jing Wan was actually quite calm, but the two Luo family elders were still a bit speechless. That’s why, this bad reputation wasn’t without benefits. Such absurdity, there really was no one else.
“Wangye, Noble Consort Su may not necessarily be feigning illness to force you to go see her again. It’s possible that she’s actually ill, so not going, is it really okay?” Sir Luo asked.
“So what?” Li Hong Yuan boldly stated.
“With your current reputation, it’s also just being filial, this bit, that’s considered worthy of praise.” Others didn’t dare to say, but Jing Wan didn’t have the slightest misgivings.
“How others think, what does that have to do with this prince? As for imperial father’s side, if this prince were to tell imperial father, Su-shi worried that this prince might threaten her son, so secretly targeted this prince, even telling him that Su-shi was feigning kindness, raising this prince just for the sake of winning favor, and on the surface, appear to be sparing no effort towards this prince, yet on the inside, had no sincerity. For this prince to have ended up this way today, having no good points, it was all thanks to her. When time comes, what kind of ending will Su-shi have?”
Jing Wan and the two Luo family elders sunk into silence. Malicious, this move really was too malicious.
Li Hong Yuan and Noble Consort Su had peacefully gotten along for more than twenty years, even having a deep mother-son relationship. Saying this now, the degree of credibility probably won’t be high, but Li Hong Yuan can completely bring it around, saying that he lost his mother at birth, and although Noble Consort Su harbored ulterior motives, at least on the surface, she was still pretty good to him. He fondly recalled Noble Consort Su’s kindness of raising him, carrying a strong feeling of childlike admiration, not hoping to be estranged with her. That’s why he gave up on himself. After all, based on his blurry memories, before he turned ten, she was still pretty good to him. His change happened after coming back to ten years old, and moreover, changed imperceptibly. Growing up year after year, he understood more and more, and also increasingly understood Noble Consort Su’s character, feeling more and more unbearable year after year. Then, to say that everything was all because of Noble Consort Su completely made sense.
And the reason why it was having a falling out now, mainly was still because Noble Consort Su was becoming more and more outrageous, already making one unable to bear. The initial signs just came about after returning from Jiangnan.
Because of special circumstances, Le Cheng Emperor also didn’t wish for Li Hong Yuan to be too capable, so that he won’t produce thoughts that he shouldn’t have. That’s why, Li Hong Yuan developing in the direction of an ‘useless person’ with no good points, Le Cheng Emperor would instead increasingly favor him. However, him becoming like this as a result of giving up on himself versus getting deliberately raised as such, this was definitely two different concepts. If Le Cheng Emperor were to firmly believe in Li Hong Yuan’s words, then for the sake of balance, even if Noble Consort Su won’t immediately get thrown into the cold palace or lose her position, Yucui Palace would still become the cold palace in reality.
That’s why, if Li Hong Yuan wants to thoroughly overthrow Noble Consort Su, it was actually very simple, just needing to move his mouth and emotionally act out a play.
The reason why Li Hong Yuan never touched her all this time was merely because he needed time to cultivate power. Only by having the Empress’s faction and Noble Consort Su’s faction evenly matched, fighting one another, would he be able to be more safe and more hidden, having even more time. Now, things were more or less ready, and Noble Consort Su’s use has come to an end. Additionally, she absolutely shouldn’t have targeted Jing Wan. As such, Li Hong Yuan naturally won’t continue feigning civility with her.
Although the four of them were in a ‘remote corner’, such a big disturbance, how can it not attract attention. However, matters that concerned the living Enma, even if curious, it was still best to not get involved in. Some things, if able to hear, just listen, and if not, then just pretend to not know anything. This way was the best.
The imperial physicians were all at Ganlu Palace. Le Cheng Emperor was also there. On one hand, it was because of Shu Consort Qin, and on the other hand, it was also because he wasn’t in the mood to have fun with others. Not having the mood, in addition to it being freezing cold outside, since he had the excuse to not come out, then naturally it was just not coming out. This while, Noble Consort Su’s people going to invite the imperial physician, it was impossible to not alert Le Cheng Emperor.
That’s why, the psychological shadow in Le Cheng Emperor’s heart today definitely won’t be small.
In the end, that was still the woman he has favored for twenty to thirty years, so it was impossible for Le Cheng Emperor to not question. And after questioning, his head just ached even more, even though the person getting questioned was also unable to say anything specific.
Ever since old six returned from Jiangnan, he just had a falling out with his consort mother. From the looks of it, they never completely repaired their relationship, and now, it was escalating even more?
In other words, if Li Hong Yuan wanted to turn on Noble Consort Su now, the foundation was already catching on fire. After all, even Le Cheng Emperor himself was all thinking this, no?
“Have old six called over to Ganlu Palace.” Le Cheng Emperor thought for a moment, “Together with his wangfei.”
Le Cheng Emperor letting someone go invite, Li Hong Yuan still needed to give face. Moreover, he still needed to let his old man see his ‘pitiful’ and ‘heartbroken’ ‘angry’ appearance, no? When it comes to putting on a play, one naturally needs to act out in full. Only then would it be perfect enough. Besides, his certain goals have actually already been achieved completely, so there was no need to continue staying in the palace. To leave while in a ‘bad mood’, his old man nine times out of ten will agree. Even if Jing Wan didn’t suffer from the cold, he still will heartache.
Not long after they arrived, Le Cheng Emperor just came out from the inner hall. Seeing Li Hong Yuan entire person all gloomy, penetrating with a ‘do not approach’ air, without even asking anything, Le Cheng Emperor just softened up first. Sitting down, he casually lifted his hand towards the bowing Jing Wan, letting her rise, “What’s wrong this time? What kind of tantrum are you throwing with your consort mother again?” He didn’t even mind that Li Hong Yuan didn’t greet him.
“Tantrum?” Li Hong Yuan coldly sneered, “In imperial father’s eyes, this son is a three year old child?”
“Fine, fine, fine, then why don’t you explain, exactly what happened?” He was already mentally and physically exhausted to begin with, yet these matters were just endless.
“If imperial father wants to know, directly go ask consort mother, what are you asking this son for, don’t know.” Li Hong Yuan was like getting jabbed in his sore spot, becoming increasingly cold on the surface.
Although Li Hong Yuan didn’t anger Le Cheng Emperor any less, and didn’t retort him any less, Le Cheng Emperor still has never really seen Li Hong Yuan like this before. Those times, it was mostly being lofty and insolent, unlike now, where hidden under the coldness was all just anger and grievance. This kind of Li Hong Yuan, Le Cheng Emperor really was unable to throw things and angry curse at like in the past.
Rubbing his temples, “Fine, if you don’t want to say, then don’t. Later, this emperor will ask your consort mother. Regardless of what your consort mother says or do, she ultimately still loves you, so don’t be too stubborn. Why don’t you rest a little in Ganlu Palace, and then afterwards, leave the palace and return to your manor. In any case, there’s nothing for you to do in the palace anyways.”
