Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 73.3: Cutting Off the Bite Scar, Chopped Up and Fed to the Dogs

Facing Jing Wan’s judging gaze, An Jiu really felt that he was stupid to the extreme. He should have long realize she was different from ordinary ladies of the boudoir. It was impossible for her to not see through the crucial points in this, and further unlikely for her to lose her ability to think because of fear. From beginning to end, hasn’t she performed perfectly? He’d given his face to her to hit on his own, tsk……..

An Jiu instructed her to quickly have the wound on her neck taken care of, before finally going to help An Yi support their master.

Afterwards, Jing Wan sent them off with her eyes, and they very quickly disappeared into the darkness. She turned around and began to dress her wound…..

After confirming that Jing Wan is unable to see them, Li Hong Yuan pushed away An Yi and An Jiu, who were holding him up. His posture stood very straight, not looking the least bit half dead. It was just the typical discarding after finish using, even acting rightly so, not having the least bit of embarrassment. “An Yi stay behind.”

“Yes.”

How could they really just walk away like this without a care, at least need to wait until she’s been completely rescued.

The people following by his side were somewhat nervous, not knowing what kind of thoughts he had towards those earlier matters.

Still having not incited his anger for a long while, they could only quietly follow him forward.

“The thing I had you all investigate, how’s the results?”

Getting asked about their proper task, they naturally didn’t dare to neglect. “Miss Luo came White Dragon Temple in advance. The people left at the Luo manor had sent a carrier pigeon to pass on the message, but this side didn’t receive the message. It has already been confirm that the carrier pigeon has gone missing. However, that letter didn’t have any special content, and as usual, had been coded. No problem should arise from it. The matter with the wild beast colliding into Cabinet Minister Ruan’s youngest di daughter’s horse carriage, should be an accident.”

“Must find that carrier pigeon’s whereabouts. Even if it got eaten by someone, you’d still need to find the bones for this prince. Also, carefully investigate every single person at Ruan Fang Fei’s side again, including the person herself.”

“….Yes.” Master didn’t allow for any mishaps to happen on Miss Luo. This was understandable. Even if that carrier pigeon’s bones got eaten by a dog, they would still need to cut it out. Since it’s suspected that Ruan Fang Fei had set the trap herself, then they needed to further investigate again. She being reckless on her own was fine, but if it involved Miss Luo, then that was absolutely not allowed.

“Why did Wan Wan and the others come in advance?”

“Gentleman Sun proposed it to Miss Sun. He said, because he’ll be even busier in two days, he wished to use this time to admire the grand scenery of the White Dragon Temple’s peach blossoms once more. Miss Sun mentioned this to Miss Luo, and Miss Luo agreed. Thus there was the following matters.”

Why did Sun Yi Lin suddenly become busy? Wasn’t it because Li Hong Yuan didn’t want him to have time to come near with Jing Wan. Just, he didn’t expect that he wasn’t even willing to let go of even a day or two of free time, insisting on plotting to get closer to Jing Wan. And when the horse carriage fell off the cliff, did he ever regret?

“Looks like this price was too benevolent towards him.” The coldness in Li Hong Yuan’s voice made the people at his side uncontrollably tremble. When it comes to remorse, Li Hong Yuan did have that tiny bit too. In his past life, Wan Wan didn’t suffer such a misfortune. Everything was all because of his actions that lead to these changes. However, he has never been one to regret. And he further wouldn’t, because of the mishap this time, stop changing the things he wanted to change. He would only instead think of ways to carefully protect Jing Wan even more. “Also, what’s the matter with Fu Yun Ting?”

“Wu An Marquis’s heir brought along his wife to White Dragon Temple to burn incense and thank for their good fortune^[1]. When coming out of the city, they ran into Miss Luo’s party. And after learning the other’s purpose, they thus decided to travel together.”

“This prince let someone matchmake for him, then gave him money, and because he got married, permitted him to take a leave. He sure is able to enjoy himself!”

He silently sighed, the Fu family heir best pray for good luck!

“Master, there’s one more thing…..Gong mama said, after Miss Luo fell off the cliff, Wu An Marquis’s heir had managed to pull Miss Luo once, thus preventing Miss Luo from falling to her death.” He’d said this much, aside from because any small or big matter regarding Miss Luo needed to be reported, the real intent was for master to be able to, on behalf of Fu-shizi^[2] saving Miss Luo, be a bit better towards him, yet unexpectedly…..

Having heard what was said, Li Hong Yuan suddenly stopped in his tracks. Originally, his mood wasn’t that exposed on the outside, but in an instant, that gloomy killing intent nearly solidified. “Fu Yun Ting, this prince perhaps should directly have you chopped up and fed to the dogs, to finally be able to thoroughly be rid of future worries!”

Startled, the shadow guards all couldn’t help taking a step back. They all felt that if Fu shizi was in front of master, master really would do as he said.

This reaction was completely wrong! If they still couldn’t guess that some link exist between Fu shizi and Miss Luo, then they can just go ram themselves to death!

According to their master’s extreme possessiveness towards Miss Luo, other men even coming slightly near her can knock over his vinegar jar. He will undoubtedly have them separated far far away, and secretly create a good deal of trouble for them. But even Chen Zheng Min, who’s about to become Miss Luo’s fiancee, didn’t make master react this violently.

Since Fu Yun Ting has stepped on master’s wound, then, in the future, regardless of how much he’s suffering, they all didn’t dare to sympathize with him anymore.

When Gong mama had specifically mentioned this matter, it was more or less because Li Hong Yuan’s conduct made her unable to bear, and she wanted to ‘retaliate’ against him. Just, she probably didn’t expect that she would directly stab into Li Hong Yuan’s sensitive spot, to the extent that Fu Yun Ting almost had his life forfeited.

The most wronged was for sure Fu Yun Ting. He didn’t know anything. Even though they’d traveled together from the capital city gates to White Dragon Temple, he didn’t meet Jing Wan face to face either. His newly wedded wife was in the back talking with Luo Old Madam. He and Sun Yi Lin, as well as Luo Jing Bo, rode the horses in the front. He’d just happened to be in the position closest to the edge.

(T/N: Author doesn’t give him that much screen time either lmaoo)

Actually, the road was sufficiently wide. When the two sides’ horse carriages were about to pass by each other, they’d yielded the way. Fu Yun Ting had backed up some, while the other two went forward some. He was more or less proceeding right alongside Jing Wan’s horse carriage. Everything had happened abruptly. The horses got startled, and his horse wasn’t an exception either. Just, because his riding skills were masterful, that’s why he didn’t immediately get flung off. Unfortunately, his lone strength was very limited, and he still inevitably fell off the cliff altogether. However, Fu Yun Ting’s reaction was quick and his luck was also sufficient. He immediately abandoned his horse and grabbed onto a small tree growing on the side of the cliff. Perhaps because Jing Wan was sitting in the outermost spot, she was the first to fly out. He’d only subconsciously reached out, wanting to grab her, but he wasn’t able to get a firm hold, only tilting her trajectory some. Although he’d saved Jing Wan, at the same time, he also made her slide further down. He later learned that Jing Wan had ended up below the hanging cliff, and below was the riverbank, not the river…..

[1] Because Fu Yun Ting recently got married, he’s going to the Temple with his wife to thank the deities for their union.

[2] Shizi – heir; I tend to avoid using the pinyin of this for most part; ‘shizi’ technically is a proper title of Chinese nobility, the alternatives are always so wordy–
