Chapter 463.2: Peach Blossom
Speaking of which, it was also a coincidence that Qin Tian Ming’s madam, because of a little typhoid, was feeling unwell, thus didn’t attend Jin Qinwang Manor’s banquet today, so as to avoid bringing bad luck. Yet, at this time, her outer grandson and daughter that originally should be at Jin Qinwang Manor returned one after another. Her outer grandson was in a sorry state, carrying injuries, and crying miserably. Have to say, Madam Qin still very much loved this outer grandson, thus hurriedly asked what happened.
Gong Wangfei entered and coaxingly consoled her son, promising many good things, before finally letting the servant girl take him to go wash up.
When her daughter was speaking, Madam Qin chose to just watch from the side.
Towards her daughter’s method of raising the child, Madam Qin very much disapproved, but her daughter simply didn’t take her seriously, saying things like, she just has this one son, the pearl of her eye, the meat of her heart, and moreover her son was an imperial grandson, Gong Qinwang Manor’s heir, and in the future, might even become………….so no matter what he did, it all didn’t matter.
Just listen to what all she was saying, really making one’s liver shake in anger. She really think she was the heavenly emperor?! Wait until one day you run into an iron wall, then will you finally understand the severity.
As time passed, Madam Qin was also too lazy to continue saying anything.
Listening to it now, this was having provoked the Grand Elder Princess, yet still dared to boldly tell her son that it wasn’t his fault!? If you really have that ability, then don’t sulkily run back to Guan Jun Marquis Manor. Madam Qin really wanted to slap her to death, letting her get lost as far away as possible, and don’t drag down the Guan Jun Marquis Manor. Of course, what Madam Qin cared about wasn’t Guan Jun Marquis Manor, but rather, just this branch of theirs. In any case, although this branch of theirs resided in Guan Jun Marquis Manor, her husband and her father-in-law nevertheless didn’t get along[1].
Once Gong Qinwang’s heir got taken down, Gong Wangfei just began venting to her mother in all kinds of ways, criticizing the Grand Elder Princess, criticizing Jin Wangfei, all in all, aside from her, everyone else was all wrong. As long as it wasn’t going along with what they wanted, then that was just wrong.
Although there wasn’t any flow, Madam Qin still roughly understood the cause and effect, the blue veins on her forehead even emerging in anger, “Shut your mouth!” How come she gave birth to such a thing, huh? Having no filter, daring to say anything, “These words, if you have the ability, go say before his Majesty.”
“Imperial father certainly will be unreasonable, helping them instead.”
Madam Qin snapped, fanning a slap on her face, “Who gave you the guts, to even dare slander his Majesty.”
Gong Wangfei was stupefied by her own mother’s slap, just hearing her mother’s words, she dared to be angry but didn’t dare to retort, “There’s just the two of us here, others won’t be able to hear. Moreover, mother, I’m a qin-wangfei, how can you hit me? This is offending your superior.”
Madam Qin covered her chest, nearly vomiting blood, “Fine, fine, fine, you’re too esteemed now. I, this mother, can’t even touch a single hair on you. The Guan Jun Marquis Manor is too humble of a place for someone as esteemed as you, asking Gong Wangfei to take the heir and leave immediately. And in the future, don’t come back anymore.”
Gong Wangfei also realized that she’d said something wrong, hesitating to speak. A moment later, “Mother, don’t be angry, I was just carelessly blurting out. Besides, going out with a handprint, how will I see other?”
“All the face has already been lost, what face do you have left to see others with?” Gong Qinwang lifted the curtains and walked in.
“Wangye……….” In front of Gong Qinwang, Gong Wangfei long wasn’t able to be arrogant, also subconsciously aware that today, she’d actually done something wrong. That’s why, she somewhat fearfully retreated two steps, “You, how come you came?”
Madam Qin rather wasn’t surprised in the slightest, “Greetings wangye.”
“Mother-in-law quickly rise.” Gong Qinwang lightly supported her up.
“Did wangye come to pick up wangfei and the heir?” If he dares to say no, then no need to think about the throne anymore. One might as well just have all the assignments in hand handed out and return home to retire.
“Yes, it’s sixth sister-in-law’s first birthday after marrying into the imperial family, so it’s not good to be absent. That brat learned that you were unwell, thus came over for a look. His intentions were originally out of filial piety, so if others were to gossip, it won’t be pretty, right?”
Lying through one’s teeth precisely describes someone like Gong Qinwang, but many people all had this skill maxed out, so it was also inconsequential. Didn’t one see Madam Qin not have any peculiarity, even naturally nodding her head, “It’s precisely so, wangye should quickly take wangfei and the heir back.”
Gong Qinwang nodded, “Where’s that brat, where’d he go?”
Reasonably speaking, it was just cleaning up and changing the clothes, not taking a bath, so how long can it take?
Gong Qinwang turned and went out, personally going to look.
“Wangye…………” Gong Wangfei hurriedly followed out, just fearing that Gong Qinwang would do something to their son in a fit of anger.
Gong Qinwang’s heir sure enough was madly playing around with two servant children. The incident that happened in Jin Qinwang Manor seemingly got forgotten beyond the clouds. He didn’t see his father, but one of the children did. In that moment, his face went pale from fear.
Gong Qinwang’s heir also turned around shortly after. He dared to throw a tantrum in front of his mother, but very much feared his father. The lawless and out of control little tyrant, at this time, withdrew his head like a quail, “R-royal father………”
Gong Qinwang expressionlessly stared at him for a moment, and afterwards, his ice-cold gaze landed on Gong Wangfei, coldly snorting as he stormed off.
Gong Wangfei hurriedly pulled along her son and followed after. Although unwilling inside, she simply didn’t dare to say anything.
“Consort mother, where are we going?” Gong Qinwang’s heir tugged his mother’s sleeve.
“Jin Qinwang Manor.”
“I’m not going.” He immediately just exploded, not willing to continue walking.
Gong Wangfei hurriedly covered his mouth, “This darn child, what nonsense are you saying.”
Unfortunately, it was already too late. Gong Qinwang who was in front already heard, turning around. Because they’d already exited Guan Jun Marquis Manor’s gates, he no longer restrained his emotions, his complexion can be said to be dark and sinister as if wanting to devour someone.
Gong Qinwang’s heir directly hid behind his mother in fear.
Gong Wangfei shielded her son and was just about to say something, when Gong Qinwang had her forcibly pushed aside, grabbing his son’s shoulder, “Not going? Fine, this prince can order someone to have you sent back home, just from now on, you’re no longer allowed to set foot outside of Gong Qinwang Manor. This prince will also submit a memorandum to your imperial grandfather, and with the excuse of you being sickly, have your title as heir revoked, what do you think? Now, tell this prince, are you going or not?”
Even if his age was still small, he was still clearly aware what his title as heir meant for him. Just, right now, his father was truly too scary, and like as if scared dumb, he was unable to make any response.
Of course, how was it just Gong Qinwang’s heir that got frightened. Gong Wangfei similarly was like so, disregarding everything else and just pouncing over, grabbing Gong Qinwang’s arm, “Wangye, how can you do that? You can’t do that!”
Gong Qinwang flung her off and returned a slap. Gong Wangfei retreated a step, and afterwards, directly fell onto the ground, looking towards Gong Qinwang in disbelief. Although it wasn’t his first time hitting her, but right now, they were in front of Guan Jun Marquis Manor. How was this slap just slapping her face, it was also slapping her father’s face. How dare he?!
Gong Qinwang looked down from above, “Can’t? What can’t be done about it? If this prince really does that, then everything is all because of you. Such a good son, yet look at what he got raised into by you? Fighting with his elders, bullying girls, these were just taught by you? Unable to obtain so just destroying, this is also your thoughts? How great are your abilities, how big is your face? Because of you, because of this bastard, this prince lost all face in front of one’s brothers and the court officials. And you? Offended the Grand Elder Princess, yet instead of thinking of apologizing, you even dared to take this bastard back to the maiden home. What, you did something wrong yourself, yet even feel wronged?”
Gong Wangfei’s lips trembled, yet was unable to speak. If she dared to argue a single word, afraid the outcome will be even worse.
Gong Qinwang’s gaze landed on his son, “Remember, if you really lose your position as heir, then everything is all your consort mother’s fault. After today’s banquet, give you two options, move to the front courtyard and properly study with your teachers, and without this prince’s permission, not allowed to go see your consort mother. Or, just spend the rest of your life with your consort mother.”
After Gong Qinwang finished, he glanced at Guan Jun Marquis Manor’s gates with a deeper meaning in his eyes, “Hmph—-” Flinging his sleeve, he turned and got on the horse carriage.
Gong Wangfei was blankly in a daze, her face having a handprint on each side. Just, Gong Qinwang’s strength was much heavier than Madam Qin’s. As such, it wasn’t even in the slightest. She didn’t understand why it would be like this, why in the end, it was all her fault?
Gong Wangfei’s gaze inadvertently landed on her son. However, what she saw was instead estrangement and wariness in her son’s eyes, even having faint hatred. Ha, she did everything for her son, yet her son was this easily swayed, and for the sake of interest, just unhesitantly abandoned her, this mother, entirely just a white-eyed wolf!
[1] The current Guan Jun Marquis is actually Qin Tian Ming’s father, but because Qin Tian Ming holds military power he has more power over his father, thus there’s tension between them. The rest of Guan Jun Marquis Manor actually supports Gong Qinwang, but Qin Tian Ming turned his back on his family to secretly support Jin Qinwang. See more detail in chapter 63.
