Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Pitiful Little Crown Prince (1)

Jing Wan this while entirely penetrated with a lazy air, though one was still unable to make out anything wrong from her bearing. However, this while, both her legs and back were sore. To have reached this extent, Yuan Qi Emperor’s waist was absolutely formidable.

Jing Wan looked to her son who had his head lowered, acknowledging his mistake with a good attitude. If one didn’t understand him, then perhaps would really get deceived by him. This brat was well versed in knowing not to lift his face after making a mistake, because he still hasn’t reached the level where he can hide his emotions. That’s why, he could only not let others see his face. Besides, this way can also easily let others soften up.

In the beginning, Jing Wan would also get deceived by him, but as the times increased, didn’t it precisely get seen through.

To actually look for an excuse to recklessly binge eat, really impressive! This was the so called ‘turning sorrow into appetite’?

Jing Wan facepalmed. Speaking of which, because of long having told this little guy in advance, that’s why, Jing Wan absolutely didn’t believe that he was really that heartbroken. Just, overeating to this degree, it still made one quite speechless.

Ever since birth, the little crown prince has always had propriety when it comes to eating, no longer eating once full. The reason why Jing Wan would restrict him was because if she were to let him eat as he pleased, then don’t know how picky his mouth would become. Setting aside the snacks between meals, just looking at the three meals in a day, his preferences were extremely similar to his old man, a complete carnivore. Even when it comes to Li Hong Yuan, Jing Wan all need to keep an eye on him every meal to eat more vegetables. This bit was also the same on the little crown prince, having the same habit as his old man. That’s why, although restricting, she has never really starved him before, yet in the little crown prince’s eyes, it just became Jing Wan not letting him eat.

Gong mama stepped out to ask for forgiveness first. Speaking of which, it was also because of her not looking after well enough, else it wouldn’t end up like this.

Gong mama has always been strict in handling matters, so it was rare for her to soften up. After this incident, the little crown prince certainly won’t be able obtain food from her hands next time. She was someone that will never make the same mistake twice. Besides, it also wasn’t that serious, so Jing Wan naturally won’t punish her.

“Ate too much? How big of a matter, just go out and run two laps. Go, go two circles around Kunyi Palace.”

The little crown prince who had his head lowered just felt as if getting struck by lightning, innocently lifting his head to look at Li Hong Yuan, “Imperial father, not full anymore.” That’s why, can he not go run, please spare him.

Jing Wan looked at his little expression, covering her mouth and laughing. However, her son’s body was good enough, and Jing Wan also had the intention of letting him exercise. Just, two circles was still a bit too much. “Just one circle then.” This lesson just needed to be enough appropriate.

Li Hong Yuan glanced at her, but didn’t say anything.

The little crown prince however pitifully looked at her, “Imperial mother, can I not go?”

“What, too little? Then, just run a circle around the entire imperial palace, or perhaps you further want to run a circle around the capital?” Li Hong Yuan coldly said.

“No, no, this son will go right away.” The little crown prince nearly jumped up. However, seeing that the demon king’s line of sight was still on him, he didn’t dare to actually jump up, properly bowing and retreating out of their line of sight before bolting off.

“Wan Wan, you’ve coddled him too much.” Li Hong Yuan indifferently said, seemingly as if just stating a fact.

Jing Wan looked at him, similarly quite speechless. Truth be told, perhaps on normal days, she indulged him a little, but the things that should be taught, not a single bit was lacking. Moreover, because he was the heir apparent, she was even particularly strict. He also frequently followed her into the imperial study. The court officials for the most part all praised him, alright! That was genuinely and wholeheartedly praising, and not flattering against their will. When her son was still a little infant, he was already very perceptive.

TN: All

However, these words clearly can’t be said, can’t let her son run two more laps, and she also didn’t want to be stuck in bed tomorrow morning. “Then, based on Ah Yuan’s meaning?”

“Almost four, should start his schooling soon.”

Upon hearing, Jing Wan nearly vomited a mouthful of old blood. To leave the boudoir and start one’s schooling, should at least wait until five. Before that, at most, it was just some basic education. Jing Wan used the method from her past life for his fundamentals. Speaking of which, based on her understanding, her son absolutely can be considered a child prodigy. She was even worried whether or not she was ‘pulling the sprout to force its growth’. Fortunately, regardless of which aspect, there all wasn’t any problems. However, now, it was directly having his early education upgraded into elite education?

“What, Wan Wan has a different opinion?”

“Ah Yuan, won’t it be a bit too early?” Jing Wan weakly said.

“Early? Fine, once he comes back, let him decide himself.” Li Hong Yuan expressed that he was very democratic.

Jing Wan didn’t bother anymore, just silently lighting a candle for her son——–‘Son, imperial mother knows that you’re actually very impressive, so in the future, just work a bit harder. It can’t be helped, who let the two of us be unable to win against your imperial father. Alright, actually, it’s not that imperial mother doesn’t dare to retort, just your imperial father is a bit crazy, ordinary people all unable to rival him. Let’s not lower ourselves to his level.’

That’s why, after the little crown prince came back from running, his high spirits didn’t last for more than three seconds, getting hit by a super heavy blow. This time, the little crown prince didn’t blank. He directly stupefied.

“Your imperial mother said that leaving the boudoir and starting your schooling now is still a bit early. This emperor wants to ask for your opinion.”

When the little crown prince heard the first half, he almost violently nodded his head. Sure enough, imperial mother was actually one’s own mother. As for this latter half——-

The little crown prince secretly peeked at Jing Wan. Jing Wan returned him a ‘look at your imperial father’ look. Great, best to give up. Imperial mother was imperious and formidable in court, able to dominate all the court officials, yet in front of imperial father, she was just a ‘useless one’. For others, it was all ‘the man fearing the wife’, for his imperial mother, it was instead ‘fearing the husband’. Alright, for the women of the world, most were all like this. His imperial mother couldn’t be spared from the mundane either.

The little crown prince was very depressed inside.

“Imperial father.”

“What?” Li Hong Yuan took a sip of tea, but didn’t deliberately use a cold tone towards the little crown prince either.

“Do you think……”

“If you have something to say, then just say it, to be stammering like this, how is it appropriate?”

“This son is willing to start one’s schooling.” The little crown prince gave up struggling, hanging his head like a wilted flower, feeling limitlessly sorrowful inside.

“Since that’s the case, after the palace banquet, this emperor will make arrangements. Originally, if you didn’t want to start your schooling now, this emperor can also indulge you for another two years, but since you’ve decided yourself, then just properly study, and don’t slack.”

If he didn’t want to, he can just not study? Who’d believe your lies. However, these words still made the little crown prince stream with tears inside.

Seeing him ‘bully’ their son like this, Jing Wan even suspected whether or not their son was his, but whether or not he was his son, this bit, she was the most clear. In her two lifetimes added together, she just had this one man. That’s why, perhaps from the start, she should’ve given birth to a daughter? Wasn’t it said that daughters were the father’s lover in the past life? Alright, a certain someone remembers his past life, so lover and what not, all get lost to one side. Besides, for a man that can let his daughter become the emperor, don’t count on him being any more gentle towards a daughter. Perhaps, in his eyes, there was no difference between a son and a daughter.

In this moment, Jing Wan just sat there, being a quiet beauty.

The next day, the palace banquet was grandly arranged, inviting the civil and military officials. Of course, there was also those that were brought back from former Southern Qi.

As for those soldiers that followed back to the capital and got arranged at the Xishan Barracks, fine wine and good dishes were also bestowed down. Additionally, each person also got bestowed gold and silver, as well as cloth. Even though the amount certainly won’t be able to compare with those high ranking generals that entered the palace, but what they obtained was already more than enough to make them grin from ear to ear.

Of course, for this banquet, the only woman that formally attended was just Jing Wan alone. Even Consort Dowager Qin all didn’t appear. In reality, Consort Dowager Qin right now was also practicing buddhism. Seemingly, it was even because of Li Hong Yuan’s mother. As for the specifics, Jing Wan wasn’t able to inquire from her.

Afterwards, there was just the little beansprout.

As the crown prince, they even separately arranged a table for him.

Don’t look at how he was very mischievous on normal days. Just as Jing Wan expected, when it comes to this kind of occasion, he was able to sit upright and proper, with a serious and deadpan look, really having the bearing and elegance of a country’s heir apparent.

“Crown prince, go offer wine for this emperor.” Li Hong Yuan said from the imperial seat.

“Yes, imperial father.” The little crown prince loudly responded, not the least bit timid.

Carrying his little cup, with two palace servants serving by the side, he started from Qin Tian Ming.

Although still small, he was ultimately the heir apparent, and right now, further representing his Majesty. As the subject, regardless of how high your post, or how old you were, this while, all need to quickly stand up.

“Sir Qin, in this expedition in Southern Qi, you have unified the soldiers and killed the enemy, incomparably heroic, a meritorious service to the state. Here, this prince offer you a cup. However, this prince is still young, unable to drink wine, so will use water in place of wine, cheers.”

Qin Tian Ming hurriedly responded humbly, downing the whole cup.

However, he couldn’t help but inwardly exclaim, as expected of his Highness the Crown Prince, this tiny, yet already having the proper appearance. In the future, when he grows up, he certainly will be impressive.

The little crown prince offered wine one by one, his words never once repeating. Even though it was most likely all taught in advance, but to be able to be this natural, not once making a mistake, it was also quite extraordinary.

For Qi Yuan to have this kind of heir apparent, it absolutely was a great fortune.
