“Understand, understand, Mama, don’t worry, I will definitely………”
“In other words, Guard Qian is also aware that one has done something bad. That’s why, it’s even intentionally committing the crime?”
The sweat on Guard Qian’s forehead was increasingly obvious, wanting to immediately flee.
Jing Wan watched the play behind the curtains, foolishly laughing, afterwards walking out, “Why don’t Guard Qian go back and rest.”
Guard Qian was like as if receiving a great pardon, “This subordinate will take one’s leave.” Frantically fleeing.
“This is just some trivial matter, mama doesn’t need to mind.” Jing Wan knew that this mama of hers has always somewhat taken the matter of Guard Qian and Bai Shao’s ‘private back and forth’ to heart.
“Bad influences naturally need to be put to an end, especially with the subordinates following the superior’s example, should properly sort out.”
Alright, Jing Wan expressed, towards this kind of mama, she was also helpless, “You are right, those people below, if they do something wrong, feel free to lecture them.”
Gong mama wanted to say something but hesitated. However, in the end, she still strictly abided by her role. It wasn’t her place to lecture her master.
Jing Wan’s gaze landed on Fu Rong, “These things, take it down and share with the others. Tonight, you also don’t need to stay on night watch, just come over early tomorrow.”
“Yes, wangfei.” Towards Jing Wan’s words, Fu Rong has never disobeyed, regardless of right or wrong.
“Mama should also go rest early.” Jing Wan lifted the curtains and entered the room.
Li Hong Yuan’s gaze landed on Jing Wan, “The one that your mama truly wants to lecture is actually this prince. The subordinates follow the example of the superior? Heh……….”
“What do you mean by this?” Jing Wan was curious.
“Does visiting the boudoir at night count as inappropriate?”
Jing Wan finally recalled, prior to marrying, this bastard really did do this kind of thing, moreover not just once. “Deservedly so!”
“Then really sorry, the number of times is definitely more than what Wan Wan is aware of.”

Jing Wan’s face was a bit dark. In other words, the number of times that she didn’t know about was certainly a lot more. “When was the earliest?”
“Earliest?” Li Hong Yuan thought for a moment. “When you first entered the capital, that night after the flower market fire.” Not hiding in the slightest, nor scared of Jing Wan settling the debt after the fact.
At the time, the two of them haven’t even gotten engaged! Jing Wan wanted to beat him!
“Since unable to stop this prince, and unable to protect one’s young lady, yet also unable to tell you, letting you produce bad feelings towards me, thinking about it, this mama of yours was also quite sullen.” Li Hong Yuan calmly said, even carrying a tiny bit of ridicule. Gong mama found him unpleasant, but towards the Gong mama that once stopped him from getting closer to Jing Wan, Li Hong Yuan similarly disliked.
“Li Hong Yuan, you sure are something. What, know that right now there’s no point for me to flip out old accounts, so you’re even pleased with yourself?” It was better to not say, once this came out, Jing Wan vaguely remember that there seemingly were those nights where she seemingly dreamed of being intimate with a certain man. That pair of eyes, she remembered the most clearly. At the time, she was even confused why she would have an erotic dream for no reason. Turns out, it simply wasn’t a dream, really infuriating.
“Wan Wan can retaliate now, this husband doesn’t mind in the slightest.” Li Hong Yuan deliberately tugged his own collar.
Retaliate? Even if she retaliates, it would still be her at a disadvantage, who let her be a woman, so in this aspect, naturally at a disadvantage. The best method was still just ignoring him.
The next day, because the horse tracks didn’t set a time for the next horse race, someone actually daringly came to inquire directly. Of course, going to Jin Qinwang Manor, this kind of thing, ordinary people didn’t have He Shi Hai’s ability to dare come alone. A few wastrels thus agreed to come together. All their courage, upon reaching Jin Qinwang Manor’s gates, seemingly thoroughly withered again, trembling in fear, pushing and shoving. Should they withdraw, or withdraw, or withdraw?
However, before they could decide, the people of Jin Qinwang Manor just had them politely invited in first.
If not Jin Qinwang Manor opening the gates for a banquet, then for them, Jin Qinwang Manor was practically just like a tiger’s lair. After all, when coming together with numerous people to visit, no matter what, Jin Qinwang all won’t notice them, no? However, right now, it was completely different. After entering, they didn’t even know where to put their hands and feet.
Speaking of which, these people, on normal days, that was all a bunch of demon kings. Even towards their own old man, they were all able to talk back and stomp their feet.
The servants of Jin Qinwang Manor that served the tea and desserts also found it rare. One has to know, ever since Jin Qinwang opened his own manor, this kind of thing can also be considered a first. Although previously there was He Shi Hai in the lead, but that was different. Every time He Shi Hai visited, that was all directly getting dragged to the training grounds, getting sorted out by their wangye, and then directly throwing out, not even drinking a cup of water. The situation can be considered worlds apart. That’s why, they naturally knew their wangye’s infamy outside, but directly witnessing, this was definitely a first. It even completely surpassed their expectation. Was wangye really that scary? He completely wasn’t though. Some of them have been in the manor for a few years, yet have only seen wangye a few times, let alone after marrying wangfei, Jin Qinwang Manor was definitely more peaceful than any residence.
They really wanted to tell them, really don’t need to be this scared, wangye wasn’t someone that will pick fights for no reason.
However, they ultimately were just servants, so didn’t dare to overstep their status and chat with these young masters.
After downing about a cup of tea, their trembling heart actually somewhat settled down.
Afterwards, they got led to another parlor by a servant girl.
Have to say, for these people, eating, drinking, and playing around, that was all what they were skilled in, so towards coaxing girls, they were naturally also very skilled. Seeing this beautiful servant girl, and also this attire, most likely it was someone serving in the inner courtyard, perhaps even someone by the master’s side.
Spinning their eyes, they just called out older sister, their mouth especially sweet, just for the sake of digging out information. Of course, regardless whether it was someone by Jin Qinwang’s side or Jin Wangfei’s side, they all didn’t dare to speak rudely, let alone spout flirtatious words.
As for this servant girl, she was indeed someone that replaced the first rank servant girls that have married. Although she was still a second rank servant girl in name, she has already taken over part of the close matters by Jing Wan’s side. For people like them, that was definitely having gone through very strict training. Although they were still young, their mind was very sharp, beautifully responding with a charming smile. The things they wanted to know that were also insignificant were actually all said, giving the impression that it was seemingly very easy to dig out information.
Inside the guest room, a screen was propped up. They finally realized that the one receiving them was Jin Wangfei. The heart that was about to reach their throat finally returned back to its place.
After sitting a while, Jing Wan arrived, exchanging a few polite greetings. These wastrels although were wastrels, when it comes to currying favor, they were also very skilled, else with this behavior of theirs, how could they still have people like their old mother and grandmother shielding them at home, spoiling like the meat of their heart.
This while praising Jing Wan, it was also very much having propriety.
Speaking of which, Jing Wan has never lacked people currying favor with her since childhood, and even more so after marrying into Jin Qinwang Manor, having Mu An this number one lackey. By Li Hong Yuan’s side, Mu An was for the most part always proper and well-behaved, but in front of Jing Wan, that was more or less really having their own face ripped down, chewed up, and swallowed. At first, Jing Wan was still not too used to it, but as time passed, she also just calmed down.
The fawning and flattery from the servants and the praises from these young masters were certainly two different things. The starting point was also completely different.
Jing Wan can also be considered to have experienced it for the first time, feeling that it was a tiny bit novel.
Pulling out the gossip, the atmosphere became even more harmonious, finally reaching the main topic.
