Tonight’s matter also consumed quite a bit of time. Li Hong Yuan prepared to leave.
“This subject still has one matter to ask wangye, asking wangye to please stay for a moment.”
“Speak.”
“With regards to recently, this subject seemingly has offended Sir Luo somewhere, yet this subject is completely ignorant. With this subject as the Head of the Cabinet Ministers, and Sir Luo as the Head of the Six Ministries, if our political views are unable to match in the long term afraid will cause many troubles, as such………….”
Li Hong Yuan lifted his hand to interrupt him, “During the Dragon Boat Festival, Ruan Fang Fei secretly drugged this prince’s fiancee, causing the person to have signs of a slippery pulse for a short period of time. Say, where do you think your grudges came from?”
Ruan Rui Zhong immediately understood the connections within. Never mind Luo Pei Shan just retorting him with words, if switch with someone else, afraid would’ve directly lifted their sleeves and beat him. “It’s this subject’s fault. This subject will definitely find a time to apologize and make amends.” As Ruan Rui Zhong said this, he discovered that just now, Jin Qinwang, who has been neither salty nor indifferent this whole time, actually had dark currents contained in his eyes, matching with the him in the rumors on normal days. He was startled into a cold sweat.
The no power and no influence Jin Qinwang, even if malicious and ruthless, it still won’t make them, these old officials, care all that much. Thinking back on it now, it really was ‘the ignorant ones were fearless’. And he was also glad that Jin Qinwang really wasn’t one that will kill someone in a moment of disagreement. Otherwise, in the imperial court, don’t know how many people will unknowingly die without knowing the reason. After all, Jin Qinwang has that ability.
He’d heard about Jin Qinwang’s care towards his current fiancee, so it’s no wonder that he wanted to sort out that wretched spawn.
How was he just decieved by Wei-shi, that wretched spawn, in front of him, pretended to be filial, putting on the act of a lovable child. How was that not necessarily a form of deception.
“Her not knowing shame and recommending herself to sleep with, this kind of thing, we’ll just set aside. Her repeatedly scheming against this prince’s previous fiancees can also not be mentioned. As for having her soon to marry niece drugged and sent onto another man’s bed, also a small matter. The numerous people she’s killed in your Ruan family rear court, and her having secret dealings and even an intimate physical relationship with her older cousin, also has nothing to do with this prince. But touching this prince’s current fiancee, she just deserves to die a million deaths. However, letting her die just like this, isn’t it too convenient for her? Tomorrow, have her sent to Zhong Qinwang. In any case, she isn’t your spawn. In the future, just treat it as the Ruan family never having such a person before.”
Although towards Ruan Fang Fei, he was already disgusted to the extreme, but hearing her various deeds and conduct, a heart this malicious, similarly loose like her mother, it still was like a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat, unbearably painful. In vain of his illustrious name, how come towards this mother-daughter pair, he was just this blind. Such a person, it’s no wonder Jin Qinwang disdains this much.
“One will solemnly obey wangye’s instructions.”
When Li Hong Yuan’s unhappy, he will naturally let others be unhappy with him. He has always been deeply skilled in this department. Right now, Ruan Rui Zhong just happened to run into the dagger, and can only be considered his own bad luck.
After sending away Li Hong Yuan, when Ruan Rui Zhong once again faced Wei-shi, he retracted all of his modesty and etiquette, a look of cold sternness, looking down from above at Wei-shi who has become even weaker after ingesting An Jiu’s medicine. It was precisely this woman that gave him a green hat, led astray his sons, and most importantly, nearly caused the death of his entire clan. He truly hated that he couldn’t have her chopped into a million pieces. However, Jin Qinwang said to leave her, and he also felt that killing her won’t absolve his hatred. He posed himself as a gentleman, never using violence towards women, but his face has long been stomped into the mud by this woman. As such, why the need to be polite with her.
Didn’t she say he was old, unable to satisfy her? In the future, he will think of ways to ‘satisfy’ her. Of course, he naturally won’t use his own body to play a joke. However, finding something to substitute was too easy.
Prior to getting injured, and prior to ingesting that medicine, Wei-shi completely didn’t fear Ruan Rui Zhong, but now, she knew she was in a vulnerable state. There was no possibility of resisting. When one doesn’t have anything to rely on, one will naturally uncontrollably birth fear. Pulling back her body, “My lord……….”
Seeing her bring out that tender and gentle appearance once again, he won’t have tender affections anymore, only disgust and hatred. He crouched down, grabbing Wei-shi by the hair, “No hurry, let’s take it slowly.”

Wei-shi trembled. This kind of Ruan Rui Zhong, she has never seen before, making her uncontrollably recall the person that trained her in the past. That was a memory that she never wanted to recall. Even if more than twenty years has passed, recalling it still made her tremble.
Wei-shi probably won’t know that she was gradually creating an old pervert that was increasingly modest on the outside, all the more smooth in handling affairs, yet on the inside, gradually becoming increasingly dark and twisted. Of course, this inner side of his, only she will see.
Ruan Rui Zhong wanted to have her dragged aside a little, but Wei-shi was just weaker, not skinner. His body right now wasn’t all that great either, so he really didn’t have that strength. “Move aside.”
As the ‘prisoner under the steps’, Wei-shi was also very perceptive, shifting to the side.
Ruan Rui Zhong had the letters on the ground picked up one by one. That movement and appearance was rather solemn, ensuring that every single one was all found———worrying that Wei-shi secretly hid some while their were distracted earlier, he even stripped her clothes.
Probably because his state of mind was different, when Ruan Rui Zhong looked at these letters again, he was exceptionally serious, his mind also instinctively began mulling. Some of the things on there, even he didn’t know about. Afterwards, he even found a few that were different from the rest among them. Should be the things that the people behind Wei-shi passed on to her. Just based on these, he really was able to discover some clues.
Hmph, with just this kind of trick, still having delusions about Qi Yuan’s mountains and rivers? Think Qi Yuan doesn’t have anyone?!
However, Ruan Rui Zhong was also clear, when it comes to spies, it was impossible for them to just send one. Since Jin Qinwang was able to uncover Wei-shi, then those that have the slightest connection with Wei-shi certainly won’t be able to escape from his palm either. The rest, may not necessarily not be another Wei-shi. In recent years, Qi Yuan has always been peaceful, so Ruan Rui Zhong didn’t worry too much.
This night, half had already passed. Afterwards, it was rather quiet and peaceful.
The next day, Ruan Eldest Madam received her father-in-law’s summoning. Reportedly, the old madam was ill, letting her send two people to attend to her. The main courtyard also can’t have no one serving, so letting her arrange altogether as well.
Ruan Eldest Madam first was somewhat apprehensive. Could it be that father-in-law really got coaxed over by that slut? However, she didn’t dare to say too much, wringing her handkerchief and deferentially responding. Afterwards, it was just personally taking the people to the main courtyard. The originally locked gate was already opened.
However, once Ruan Eldest Madam saw Wei-shi on her dying breath on the bed, she finally relaxed. This appearance wasn’t like having the man coaxed back. However, why the need to still nicely serve her?
Just, before the arrangements were finished on this side, Ruan Rui Zhong summoned her again on the other side. However, it wasn’t the front courtyard, but rather Ruan Fang Fei’s place.
Her heart jumped again. The matter of raiding Ruan Fang Fei’s courtyard, she still haven’t had the time to tell father-in-law. Letting him see that pitiful appearance of Ruan Fang Fei’s, perhaps with just her tears, he’ll just soften. As such, the ones to suffer will be them.

RFF had used the uncommon poison to JW. A drug which even Gong Mama doesn’t know. So, I wonder why they (LHY and RRZ) don’t worry about Wei-shi detoxing her poison and poisoned RRZ; or sending some secret signals through the letters they (LHY’s party) ordered to send to the enemies. 🤔
Simple, because you need materials and the tools, how would she be able to if she’s locked up and under watch with all her possessions stripped? Not to mention, since LHY has already intercepted her letters before, wouldn’t he already know whatever secret signals she has since he was already able to replicate their secret seal. He’s been observing her for years, and probably has already swapped out her letters before, yet hasn’t been noticed.
Woah. Wei shi is like a pervert virus carrier. She spread debauchery, perversion and vengeful lust to whomever she collides with..
I mean.. Ruan Rui Zhong is just an old scholarly fox and idle flower admirer like minister Luo, albeit more foolish.. that seemingly innocent gramps to developed into a deeply hidden deranged twisted abuser..
*mic dropped
“Trained her in the past” much to think about.
Thanks for the chapter! 😘
Don’t stress Madam, you did everything perfectly, 💯
