Chapter 687: Settling the Debt, Accident

Jing Wan’s status was displayed there, so the group naturally greeted her too. Jing Wan nodded her head and called for them to rise.

“Jin Qinwang is also in the manor. Your father is accompanying him in the study, why don’t you two brothers go over for a look.”

“Yes mother, this son will take one’s leave.” The two brothers left in succession.

Once the main pillar was gone, the remaining people, Jing Wan just felt were a bit pitiful. Truthfully speaking, Grand Elder Princess wasn’t that mean of a person either, so was it really necessary to be like this?

The Grand Elder Princess’s brows creased again, but in the end, didn’t lash out, “Jin Wangfei brought back quite a few good things from Jiangnan for me. There’s a lot of things, so why don’t you all go pick some to take back.”

“Yes, many thanks mother.”

The Grand Elder Princess waved her hand, impatiently sending them off. Once they left, she sighed towards Jing Wan, “Picking this kind of daughter-in-law, I don’t even know whether it’s right or wrong.” For the sake of letting he emperor older brother be at ease, the daughter-in-laws the Grand Elder Princess picked were all from small households, so in her eyes, naturally was just unpresentable.

These words, Jing Wan didn’t follow up. For all things, it’s like people drinking water, only one knows whether it’s warm or cold^[1]. As the saying goes, losing and gaining, you win some, you lose some. However, it was obvious, the Grand Elder Princess also didn’t plan on obtaining an answer from Jing Wan’s mouth.

“Big sister, did you bring presents for me?” Yu Yao shook Jing Wan’s hand, cutely asking.

“How can your share be missing? Really becoming increasingly mannerless.” The Grand Elder Princess softly scolded.

Yu Yao knew that her mother wasn’t really angry. As such, she wasn’t the least bit scared either. “What all did big sister bring for me? Mother, can I go have a look?”

“Go then, go then, you making a racket here is giving me a headache.” The Grand Elder Princess ‘disdainfully’ said.

Yu Yao smilingly left, and after leaving her mother’s line of sight, she just took off running.

“All some crafty debt collectors.” The Grand Elder Princess rubbed her temples, yet the corner of her mouth carried a smile.

(T/N: There’s a saying in chinese that your children are people you owe a debt to in the previous life.)

“Children are indeed the parents’ debt collectors. Generation after generation, it’s always collecting the debt from the parents first, then paying the debt to the children afterwards. No one is able to escape.”

“Indeed. Jing Wan, what about you, is there any good news from your stomach?” Her line of sight naturally just landed on Jing Wan’s stomach.

Under this kind of societal background, unless like Sun Yi Jia, immediately getting pregnant right after marrying, else one was certain to pressed on this matter. No one can escape.

“Children are determined by fate, so just let nature take its course.” Regarding this matter, she naturally can’t tell the Grand Elder Princess the truth.

The Grand Elder Princess rather wanted to keep them for the meal, but the palace suddenly summoned Li Hong Yuan. Prior to leaving, Li Hong Yuan let someone come ask Jing Wan, and thus Jing Wan directly got up to take her leave.

The Grand Elder Princess didn’t urge her to stay either. Even if Li Hong Yuan was an idle prince, and the Grand Elder Princess didn’t interfere in court affairs either, in the end, they were still in an unusual period. Even pure intentions can all be tainted by others, so naturally it was better to be careful.

At the Grand Elder Princess Manor’s gates, Jing Wan just parted ways with Li Hong Yuan, one entering the palace, and one returning to Jin Qinwang Manor.

Li Hong Yuan had the qinwang procession as well as the majority of the people all left for Jing Wan, while he himself directly rode on horseback.

In Jing Wan’s view, it was most likely still Jiangnan’s matter. So long as the final results haven’t come out, Jin Qinwang, as the imperial envoy, the kind that had the other officials casted aside, even if he wanted toss the matter aside, it was all not too possible. He although can disobey Le Cheng Emperor, but in the end, there still needed to be a limit. If one were to let Le Cheng Emperor issue an imperial decree to ‘invite’, then that won’t be good.

Jing Wan sat upright inside the horse carriage, having her eyes slightly closed, while her right hand randomly fiddled with the buddhist beads on her left wrist, contemplating certain things.

Some things, even if Li Hong Yuan didn’t state clearly, Jing Wan can still sense from some letters the tense atmosphere. Even if knowing that Li Hong Yuan’s power in hand was enormous, to want to win the throne wasn’t an easy task either. As long as the dust hasn’t completely settled, she will still uncontrollably worry for him. Even if she can’t do anything for him, she still can’t drag him down.

The sounds of hurried horse hooves, followed by the cry of a horse, the carriage suddenly shook. Because of the inertia, Jing Wan directly bumped against the wall of the carriage, and very soon, the carriage completely stopped. Jing Wan rubbed her aching arm, “What happened?”

“There’s someone spurring the horse, running into the carriage. To have alarmed wangfei, asking wangfei to please forgive.” An Yi’s voice sounded from outside the window.

Jing Wan’s brows slightly furrowed. To dare spur the horse in the capital, even Jing Wan had to praise their guts. And to dare run into the living Enma’s procession, that’s just equal to eating a hundred bears’ heart and a hundred leopards’ guts. “Go ask clearly who. If due to an emergency, then just let the other party go received the punishment for ‘spurring the horse’ on their own. If deliberately spurring the horse, then have the person arrested and hand over to the Magistrate Office of the Capital to handle according to the law.” It was obvious, regardless of which, the matter of her getting injured, Jing Wan all didn’t plan on pursuing.

(T/N: Not sure if I need to mention, but spurring the horse inside the city is illegal, for obvious reasons.)

Jing Wan won’t pursue, but An Yi and them won’t necessarily not pursue. Having injured the wangfei, that was no longer a small matter, so how can they possibly not look into? Later when master questions, they will all have to suffer. Originally, everything was perfectly fine. This was practically just disaster falling from the skies. However, right now, it was naturally following whatever wangfei said. Was this outward devotion but inner opposition? Absolutely not!

Jing Wan prepared to continue resting her eyes, but outside——–

“Do you know who I am?”

Jing Wan inwardly sighed. Just based on this typical wastrel little tyrant tone, she just knew this matter won’t be able to conclude nicely, and have no choice but to use her position to suppress the other party for once.

However, it was obvious, the other party probably wasn’t a long-term residence of the capital, but definitely had power and influence, else how can they dare to act arrogant in the ‘presence’ of the living Enma?

After contemplating this bit, towards the other party’s identity, Jing Wan had an eighty percent grasp of. Leaning over, she slightly lifted up the window curtain, taking a glance outside.

Seven to eight strong and built bodyguards, deeply carrying a menacing aura. At a glance, one could just tell they were soldiers that have experienced a hundred battles. For people like them, they defended the country and protected the home, so should ought to be honored, yet now, were obeying the little tyrant’s orders. Additionally, for the sake of her own husband’s face, she also can’t yield. Jing Wan put down the curtains, sitting quietly, freely allowing An Yi and them to handle.

Just as expected, the two sides immediately just got into a fight.

And at this time, Gong mama also lifted the curtains and entered. On one hand it was because of worrying that the horses might get startled again, and on the other hand, Gong mama had heard the sound earlier and was a hundred percent certain that Jing Wan had gotten injured. And because she was worried, she needed to come see.

Jing Wan rather wasn’t surprised. Gong mama has always been attentive. Thus, she didn’t hide either, directly lifting up her sleeve. No one ever expected that an accident would occur, and because of being caught off guard, this bump was quite serious. A large section of her arm was entirely purple.

Gong mama furrowed her brow, taking out medicine from the carriage’s secret compartment, applying it on Jing Wan’s arm and massaging.

This bit of pain wasn’t unbearable.

“Wangfei should already know the other party’s identity, right?” Gong mama softly asked.

“En, the He family, fifty years ago, started guarding the northeast. At present, it has already reached the third generation, wielding a great army of a hundred thousand, known as the Northeastern Army, akin to Qi Yuan’s guardians in the northeast. What’s different from other high-ranking military officers is that the He family’s entire family all resided in the border town in the northeast, and once every three years, returned to the capital to report. According to my knowledge, in past years, it was just the main commander returning with about a hundred people. This year, it seems like even the family members all returned?” Perhaps there were some unknown secrets in this matter.

“Regardless of who, having injured wangfei, wangye all won’t leave things lying down.”

Jing Wan fell silent. This was something that was clear and easy to see. If truly an accident, she would’ve even somewhat urge a few words, but clearly this wasn’t the case. This little tyrant, from the looks of it, just appeared to be one that was used to being arrogant. In the northeastern border town, their family was the big boss, equivalent to being the local emperor, so naturally no one dared to say anything. And even in the capital, he also had the backing to be arrogant. Just, he was no longer at the top of the pyramid. Falling into the living Enma’s hands, that was just genuinely running into an iron plate. Even if not dying, it was still shedding a layer of skin.

Reasonably speaking, the other party was a true and honest valiant army soldier. Even if the Jin Qinwang Manor’s bodyguard were meticulously selected, that was still unable to compare. And An Yi and them also can’t use their full strength, so as to avoid exposing themselves.

However, who let Jing Wan’s side have more people. Moreover, when training, it was just coordinating in groups. The time spent was a bit long, but it still didn’t change the final outcome.

That little tyrant still wanted to curse, but unfortunately got his mouth stuffed.

“Wangfei, how should these people be dealt with?” An Yi didn’t let someone directly send to the capital’s magistrate office, instead inquiring again.

“Take back to the manor. When wangye returns, let the He family come to the manor to claim the person.” For some people, if not taught a profound lesson, forever won’t know their mistakes.

T/N: The He family young son is actually a personal favorite of mine, his parts are all pretty fun. I’ve actually been waiting for him to finally show up.
