Desiring to Meet the Imperial Noble Consort

The others all got intimidated by Eunuch Mu’s ruthless move. Even if about to be sent to the outer regions, the pleading words still got stuck in the throat, unable to come out, because their intuition told them, opening their mouth at this time absolutely won’t be anything good. Afraid, one will be even more miserable than the person that got sorted out by Eunuch Mu———because one wasn’t perceptive.
Eunuch Mu was very pleased with their perceptiveness. However, his gaze towards them was still like looking at a bunch of dirty things, seemingly looking a few more times would just dirty the eyes.
“Immediately have these people sent away.”
Eunuch Mu passed down the order. There were plenty of people in the manor, so naturally there were people for all sorts of matters.
Just, once this matter got out, the people in the manor that still had thoughts also entirely halted. To fail in obtaining wealth and honor, instead thoroughly having oneself thrown in, it truly was the gains not making up for the losses. One has to know, in Jin Qinwang Manor, as long as one obediently carried out one’s duties, then the days were just more carefree than any other residence in the capital, the monthly salary also top notch. Right now, wangfei was pregnant, and for the sake of amassing good fortune for the child, it was also just having the people driven out. If someone were to still cause trouble, then it probably won’t be that simple.
This matter, to say it was small, it really wasn’t, but to say it was big, it also wasn’t that big. However, the amount of people weren’t few after all, and they weren’t sent away using a special method either, so it will inevitably be noticed. That’s why, once the matter got out, Jing Wan can be considered getting pushed out into ‘the wind and waves’ again.
Easily jealous and malicious, nothing more than just this. On Jing Wan, it also wasn’t the first time either. After spreading for a period of time, it also just quieted down. Even Jing Wan herself, when hearing, also didn’t feel any novelty. Even if the people of the world all knew that Jin Qinwang deeply loved Jin Wangfei, and it was he himself that didn’t want others, but as long as he doesn’t have others by his side, then Jing Wan was just destined to continuously shoulder the name of being ‘easily jealous’. This reputation perhaps many years later will dull with time.
Le Cheng Emperor also heard a little. Originally, towards Jing Wan, he was quite satisfied, but because Li Hong Yuan’s side just had her alone, he more or less will have complaints. However, right now, who let Jing Wan be pregnant, very much precious. The most Le Cheng Emperor can do was also just send two palace maids, unable to do any more. Moreover, towards Li Hong Yuan’s matters, he really wasn’t able to insert a hand. This bit, he was also very helpless about. As the old man, he wasn’t too willing to admit, but this was nevertheless the reality.
The northwest’s matters were already more or less settled, although there were still some small follow-up matters, and can only slowly handle. However, those things, Le Cheng Emperor for the most part all didn’t take to heart. What he cared about was Fu Yun Ting, but Fu Yun Ting, after returning, just very cleanly let go of his power, and right now, was just purely an idle person. Moreover, he won’t easily leave the home, so even if Le Cheng Emperor wants to give him trouble, he also had nowhere to start. Le Cheng Emperor was just someone that cared about his reputation to begin with, and this situation right now, even if wanting to discard his reputation and pin the other party with some baseless accusation, afraid in the end, it all won’t succeed. That’s why, Le Cheng Emperor could only grit his teeth in anger.
Additionally, Le Cheng Emperor has always wanted to meet the Imperial Noble Consort. Unfortunately, Grandmaster Liao Chen has continuously avoided seeing him. Previously, because of the war, he wasn’t able to step away, but now, temporarily having nothing to do, Le Cheng Emperor was just unbearable all day like getting scratched by a cat, repeatedly sending people to White Dragon Temple. It was obvious, if Grandmaster Liao Chen continues to postpone like this, Le Cheng Emperor sooner or later will flip out.
Even if Grandmaster Liao Chen was an enlightened high monk, renowned throughout the four seas, and even if he wasn’t scared of offending the emperor, or it wasn’t difficult for him to get away, but the people in White Dragon Temple weren’t few, and not all the same as Grandmaster Liao Chen. That’s why, he will have to meet sooner or later.
However, as for when to meet, it was the living Enma that had the final say.
Rather, it wasn’t that Grandmaster Liao Chen was controlled by Li Hong Yuan. Mainly it was still because the living Enma was too brutal, and Grandmaster Liao Chen harbored compassion, fearing that he would just take drastic measures in a moment of disagreement. That’s why, on some insignificant small matters, Grandmaster Liao Chen just went along with him.
When Le Cheng Emperor once again sent people to White Dragon Temple, Grandmaster Liao Chen finally agreed to enter the capital.
And Le Cheng Emperor, who had received the news in advance, was immersed in excitement the whole time. Of course, he was also nervous and restless. After all, it was him that killed her. This bit, even if Le Cheng Emperor had kept from the world, continuously denying, he still can’t distort the truth in front of the actual person involved.
Grandmaster Liao Chen stayed in the palace for three days, in the buddhist hall that Le Cheng Emperor specifically opened for him.
Speaking of which, although the Imperial Noble Consort resided in Shu Consort Qin’s body, not having any influence towards Shu Consort Qin, she ultimately was still a spirit. If one wants her to show herself, it was best to wait until the mid of the seventh month, when the yin energy was the strongest. However, Grandmaster Liao Chen ultimately was different, not specially preparing anything, and not picking the mid of the seventh month.

Le Cheng Emperor was burning with anxiety. Thus, Grandmaster Liao Chen also granted his wish, telling Le Cheng Emperor that it was doable at any time.
This time, Le Cheng Emperor instead hesitated. After thoroughly considering all aspects, he selected a particular night, even having Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan called into the palace. Presumably, it was also because of feeling guilty, fearing that the Imperial Noble Consort won’t meet with him. If their son is present, then the Imperial Noble Consort certainly will have misgivings. As such, with a good start, the later matters will be smoother.
It’s not that Li Hong Yuan has never met the Imperial Noble Consort, but that was in the past life while he was on the deathbed. Because of the situation at the time, he didn’t pay much attention. And last time meeting with the Imperial Noble Consort, she was using Shu Consort Qin’s body.
As such, towards meeting her, Li Hong Yuan was also a bit interested.
In comparison, it was instead Jing Wan that was even more interested. That was once the publicly acknowledged number one beauty. When she passed away, she was also just twenty years old, precisely one’s best years, her appearance certainly at its peak.
However, she ultimately wasn’t human anymore, and Jing Wan was also pregnant right now. After confirming with Grandmaster Liao Chen that there won’t be influences, Jing Wan was finally able to wait with Le Cheng Emperor and Li Hong Yuan in a certain specially arranged room.
