Chapter 525: Not Necessarily the Woman’s Problem

Chapter 525: Not Necessarily the Woman’s Problem

The weather gradually warmed up, but the northwest affairs still haven’t been completely handled, yet already entering the fifth month. It was the Dragon Boat Festival (fifth of the fifth lunar month) again. With too many matters at hand, Le Cheng Emperor wasn’t in the mood to go out and watch the dragon boat race. However, he still arranged for a banquet in the palace, inviting high officials of the third rank and higher along with their family.
“Ah Yuan is preparing to make the move during the banquet?” Jing Wan somewhat curiously asked.
“Make the move? Wan Wan is thinking too much. This husband merely wants to be a spectator, what move is there to make?”
Jing Wan lifted her brow, saying with a smile, “Then, I’ll look forward to seeing.”
Rather want to see whether or not Noble Consort Su and Rui Qinwang can still climb up again after this.
If still able to rise up again, then Jing Wan will have to admit, they were cockroaches that can’t be killed easily. However, no matter how tenacious of a cockroach, when accurately aimed at, it was also nothing more than just crushing with the sole of a shoe. Never mind killing, can just directly crush into smithereens.
On festive days, Jing Wan has always had herself dressed up festively. In the beginning, it was because Gong mama and them deliberately had her dressed in this direction. Afterwards, Jing Wan also got used to it. In any case, regardless whether it was her winter attire or summer attire, clothes that used colors such as bright red and rose pink as the main color, she was all able to handle. In addition to her good complexion and good skin, that kind of attire instead made her entire person appear even more radiant and charming, seemingly appearing increasingly beautiful.
No matter how one looked, there was no other wangfei or jun-wangfei able compare with her. At this time now, no one can still deceive themselves, thinking that Jin Qinwang’s feelings towards Jin Wangfei didn’t exist, and that everything Jin Qinwang did was all an act. Jin Qinwang clearly had her treated as the treasure of his heart, cupping in his palm.
Don’t say something like Jin Qinwang ‘cursed wives’, and aside from his wangfei, just had no other women to be intimate with. Jin Qinwang perhaps cursed those that had titles, but those without titles were completely fine. Look at those in the past, they were the best proof. If Jin Qinwang wanted, he can raised as many beauties as he wanted. But, ever since he married, has he ever had any other random woman at his side?
Jin Qinwang feared his wife? Heheh, don’t joke, Jin Qinwang was the greatly renowned livng Enma, even able to give his own old man an attitude. He would fear his wife? That’s why, in the end, it can only be that most improbable possibility.
How many people burned with jealousy, but they all could only keep it bottled in their hearts. No matter how jealous, what can be done about it? The two soon-to-be side consorts of Jin Qinwang last time, if not meeting with mishap before even leaving the home, then it was just dying inside the sedan en route. Even if wanting to divide away Jin Wangfei’s favor, even if yearning for the wealth and honor of Jin Qinwang Manor, or admiring Jin Qinwang as a person, one still needed to have the life to step into Jin Qinwang Manor. If unable to even achieve this, then everything else was useless.
“Speaking of which, Jin Wangfei is indeed one with good fortune, else how come Jin Qinwang, who once spent his time among flower clusters, just happened to take a fancy to her, even restraining himself for her. However, in the end, still lack a bit of something. She has monopolized his pampering for more than two years, yet the stomach still nothing. Everyone all know that Jin Qinwang Manor’s manor doctor is talented, but still like this, afraid………….Sigh, Jin Qinwang in the past perhaps disdained those women with low status, feeling they weren’t worthy of being his child’s mother, but ultimately an imperial descendant, his Majesty’s most favored son, so how can he not have an heir, that’s why…………”
The following words, needless to say, the people in the surrounding all began laughing with particular implications.
What it meant, it couldn’t be more clear. How much longer can Jin Wangfei be smug for? In any case, it was just these few years. Jin Qinwang was already twenty-five. It can’t be that at thirty, he still won’t have a child at his knees. When time comes, without needing others to do anything, Jin Wangfei will just start lifting people into Jin Qinwang Manor herself. Even if leaving the child and disposing the mother, how much longer can she last?
Even if Jin Qinwang was one with deep feelings, but when Jin Wangfei is thirty or forty, you still have the face to serve at night? Even if you have no sense of shame, the man afraid will no longer have interest. Which man wasn’t the same, not liking tender and delicate young girls, instead liking a faded old woman?
Thinking of it like this, their jealousy also just diluted.
However, these people seemingly can only just use this bit to nitpick.
TN: All
Every time feeling unbalanced inside, they would just think this, and indeed, it was still somewhat effective———-The principle of mental victories was effective no matter where.
Jing Wan was actually able to sense those gazes, but from the start, she just never cared. Those zhoulis[1] of hers, at first, perhaps would even use this to provoke her, but after suffering a loss, they for the most part also just behaved themselves.
However, at present, among the conferred princes, seemingly only Jin Qinwang didn’t have a son. That’s right, right now, even when facing Rui Qinwang, all can’t use ‘lacking a son’ to attack him. And in reality, after Rui Qinwang’s son was born, many of the people that supported him became even more firm, just Rui Qinwang at present still wasn’t favored by his Majesty.
The Empress was still sickly, not having any improvement, Noble Consort Su was locked in confinement, and Xian Consort Wei, even if giving birth to a son, because of the premature birth, injured her body, and the child also wasn’t that well. Moreover, when she gave birth, Jing Wan had said that kind of thing to Le Cheng Emperor, losing the joy of obtaining a child at old age. Thus, towards the mother and son pair, Le Cheng Emperor also disliked, so Xian Consort Wei wasn’t able to rely on her son to elevate her standing. Right now, it was actually even worse than before, even worse than the other low ranking imperial concubines that had a child. In the end, the woman closest to Le Cheng Emperor was still Shu Consort Qin.
After Jing Wan had returned to the capital, she’d actually entered the palace to see Shu Consort Qin, still appearing pretty good. There wasn’t that ominous air from prior to their trip to the northwest anymore.
Upon the banquet hall, wine cups intertwined. Le Cheng Emperor also for once had those troublesome matters placed aside.
Just, there were always those with ill intentions, thinking of every way possible to have the matter directed onto Jin Wangfei’s sore spot. Others couldn’t do anything, but if Le Cheng Emperor wanted to question, it was nevertheless appropriate.
Le Cheng Emperor sure enough had a heavy expression, looking towards Jing Wan. Towards this daughter-in-law, he was still satisfied, but if unable to spread the branches, then that was just an enormous fault, “Old six’s wife, this emperor knows, you’re a good one, but old six cannot lack an heir. This emperor doesn’t care how things are between you two, but this child, you must have.”
The smile on Jing Wan’s face didn’t change, “Imperial father……….”
“What is imperial father lecturing her for, not having children isn’t necessarily just the woman’s problem.” Jin Qinwang calmly interrupted Jing Wan’s words.
His tone wasn’t heavy, but it was more than enough to make everyone freeze. If whichever family didn’t have children, then the problem certainly would be on the woman.
And once Jin Qinwang’s word came out, everyone all strangely looked towards him. Exactly was it really being unbridled? Or there was really a problem? However, regardless of which, it undoubtedly all helped Jin Wangfei out of a dilemma.
Le Cheng Emperor smashed his cup in anger, but Jin Qinwang didn’t even spare him a glance.
