Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 477: Jealousy Acting Up

“Sixth sister-in-law, this estate of yours is truly managed beautifully.” Seventh wangfei said full of vinegar.

The other zhoulis’ thoughts were more or less the same as hers, clearly all having the same status, but often times, they indeed felt they were a head shorter. That kind of dejected feeling inside really made one very annoyed.

Their food and clothing were all inferior to the other party’s in all respects, and speaking of this estate, in reality, the estates nearby for the most part were all imperial estates. The other princes and qinwangs all had estates nearby, but in comparison, only this estate of Jin Qinwang’s that was two estates linked together as one was the best, the position excellent, and the resource production abundant. Not only so, just picking out one, the area was at least more than two times the other estates. The ones with the greatest difference even reached as much as four times, and with the two estates together, it was just eight times the size. Those places were all relatively remote, the path also winding, and they also didn’t have that much money to remodel and put in order. For those that could see Jin Qinwang’s estate from the mountaintop of their own estate, comparing the two, their own was practically just like the desolate wilderness.

Although long resigning to fate, knowing that no matter what, they were all unable to compare, they still couldn’t help but feel jealous and envious every time they saw.

Receiving sour words, this kind of thing, Jing Wan was long used to, completely not minding, “Leaving this estate alone is also quite a waste, and even if coming to the estate for a short stay, that one to the side was more than enough. Moreover, our wangye feels that it’s awfully boring on normal days, so this estate, in the future, will be opened to the outside for others to have fun. If sister-in-laws have the free time, can also come for a sit.”

Those that heard looked to one another in dismay. Must be joking, right? For better or worse, it’s an imperial estate under a qinwang’s name, so how can it be opened up for entertainment, it’d be very much losing face. Just based on this bit, Jin Qinwang will inevitably be accused of misconduct again. However, unless a grave crime such as treason, otherwise regardless of how the officials accuse him of misconduct, it probably all won’t affect Jin Qinwang. Tugging the corners of their mouth, they chose to not say anything.

Learning from the mistakes of their predecessor, they knew that this zhouli of theirs similarly wasn’t one to be trifled with. Offending her, what kind of outcome it will be, wasn’t the current Gong Wangfei the best proof? Estranged with her maiden family, separated from her son, and disdained by her husband. Moreover, she even had a tang younger sister get sent to Gong Qinwang Manor. Although as a concubine, that level of favor and all her allocated supplies all exceeded the two Gong Qinwang side consorts. Compared to the wangfei, it was just a tiny bit inferior.

From this, one can see that Gong Qinwang’s relationship with the Guan Jun Marquis Manor was still very close. Just, the Left Commander-in-Chief that came from the Guan Jun Marquis Manor, Gong Qinwang’s actual father-in-law, his relationship with Gong Qinwang seemingly was just………….

Hostility forming between Gong Qinwang and the Left Commander-in-Chief that held military power practically was just something that made one clap one’s hand and cheer.

Gong Qinwang at first, even if still angry at Qin Tian Ming for completely ignoring him, still not letting go of something from long ago, had always lowered himself and acted servile before him, but he wasn’t able to make Qin Tian Ming change his mind in the slightest. He faintly felt that even if he were to continue like this, it won’t have a good outcome either. Coming to this step now, it can be said to be staking it all on one throw. How was it not wanting to give Qin Tian Ming a bit of a lesson? However, Qin Tian Ming didn’t have any reaction at all, his own daughter seemingly also completely abandoned by him. Don’t know how many things Gong Qinwang had smashed in anger, but he still couldn’t do anything about Qin Tian Ming.

(T/N: The logic of the first sentence was so off in the original that it was too hard to translate so I had to change it a little, so instead of ‘actually just because of being angry’, which was how it was supposed to be translated accurate to the text, I changed it to ‘even if still’.)

Gong Qinwang cursed Qin Tian Ming in all kinds of ways inside, overflowing with malice, always thinking about what he will do once he ascends the throne. However, deep down, he actually faintly understood that if he gets abandoned by Qin Tian Ming, his chances of ascending the throne will be very minuscule, unless the two suppressing in front, as well as Li Hong Yuan, all died. Only then will it finally be his turn. Although he understood this inside, he still wasn’t willing to admit to it. However, certain thoughts have already began endlessly forming, unknown as to when they will be put into action.

What was originally somewhat considered a situation of three opposing forces can be said to have already been broken. Kang Qinwang and Rui Qinwang for the most part all didn’t have this younger brother taken seriously. Of course, in Kang Qinwang’s eyes, Qin Tian Ming was naturally serving him in secret, and now, having a falling out with that ‘good younger brother’ of his on the surface, for him, it didn’t have any influences either. On the contrary, without this string, the people that originally stood on that good younger brother’s side will probably also have to reconsider their decisions. It practically can’t be better.

That’s why, when the other brothers were all attempting to rope in Qin Tian Ming, Kang Qinwang instead sneered. Of course, he also didn’t forget to give some benefits to Qin Tian Ming to strengthen their relationship.

Facing these people, Qin Tian Ming was also mentally exhausted, especially when also needing to face that indefinitely moody real master.

Speaking of which, Gong Wangfei was his biological daughter. Even if having become that unsightly, in the end, it was still impossible for him to really abandon her completely. Ultimately, abandoning now, in a certain sense, was actually protecting her. With his daughter drawing her boundaries with Gong Qinwang now, in the future when Jin Qinwang starts settling accounts, the repercussions his daughter will receive will be reduced as much as possible. However, he wasn’t able to say anything. Even if his wife sorrowfully shed tears at him, there was nothing he could do.

Gong Wangfei, who didn’t know these things, can be said to be in devastating despair, claiming to be ill and not going out, that was really having fallen ill.

However, in the end, she was still the Left Commander-in-Chief’s di daughter. Even if Gong Qinwang spurned her, he absolutely won’t torment her deliberately either.

These things, everyone all had an understanding inside, although the Left Commander-in-Chief going that far made people feel very unbelievable. However, Gong Wangfei initial decline was indeed related to Jin Wangfei, no? Afterwards, every time she had conflict with Jin Wangfei, her decline would just increase, practically just like a curse.

That’s why, unbeknownst to Jing Wan, these zhoulis already decided to not rashly offend her. Although they won’t be that amicable, at the very least, they won’t deliberately nitpick her.

That’s why, at this time, even if saying sour words, it was also limited, not daring to go overboard.

Jing Wan was actually somewhat baffled by their attitude. However, no one liked quarreling with others, no? With no one nitpicking, she was naturally relaxingly happy. As for why there was this kind of change, who cares.

Regardless whether it was the horse tracks side, or the resting area, sufficient manpower was arranged. Moreover, all of them had gone through training, so completely didn’t need for Jing Wan to worry. Although, she still had many more ideas fermenting inside, slowly adding to the resting area. Of course, it was merely just some entertaining things, so the influence was limited.

The horse race was about to begin. Jing Wan led the people over to the race track side. The viewing platform naturally was divided into layers and sections. They naturally occupied luxury room on the highest level. From this position, one for the most part can view the entire field.

The ten horses for the first round were already sent to the fences behind the starting line. As for which horse belonged to who, and stood in which number lane, it was long listed and distributed to the crowd. There was still an hour left. Everyone can place bets on the horse they were optimistic about.

Of course, this, in Jing Wan’s view, actually still had quite a bit of corrupt practice. The race tracks were big, and the horse’s specific situation was unable to be seen. For those that were able to distinguish between horses, they lost quite a bit of opportunity. However, this kind of person was in the minority after all. The rest were still making bets according to the horse’s owner. In the beginning, there will be more people that will just be watching and won’t make bets. However, after each subsequent race, which horses can rise above the others, naturally will gradually emerge onto the surface. Just, this kind of undefeated general, they also don’t need to worry about existing long term. If the results are the same every time, how will it still be interesting. Just those that lost, regardless of whether it was for the sake of money or face, will all go look for even better horses. And the precious horses in Jin Qinwang’s hands weren’t just there to look pretty either. The horse tracks were Li Hong Yuan’s, and the idea was his wife’s, so naturally he will have everything all tightly controlled in his own palm, even if the people managing the place in the future might be sent by Le Cheng Emperor.

Horses, for the most part, were considered military resource. Although among the people, it’s not like there weren’t people dealing in horses, but they were all in the minority. Moreover, the truly good horses also won’t appear in those places either. As such, they didn’t need to worry about the prevalence of horse racing disturbing the people, causing chaos.

(T/N: Horses were like the luxury cars of ancient times.)

Li Hong Yuan and his other brothers were in another room. Speaking of which, no one was stupid. After learning about certain rules, they for the most part were all able to think of the enormous profit margins in this. Just slightly calculating, their hearts would all madly beat along with. This wasn’t just some gold-laying hen, this was simply just a gold mine!

“Sixth brother sure is thoughtful.” Even with Rui Qinwang’s mental fortitude, this while, he all carried a bit of moodiness, let alone the others, their jealously practically about erupt in an instant.

Li Hong Yuan was unconcerned, not even giving them a glance, “It was wangfei’s idea, merely wanting to earn a bit of rouge and powder money.”

These people, each and every one, were all violently cursing inside.
