Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 225: The IQ Finally Present for Once

Rui Wangfei however won’t foolishly go retort him at this time. This man held an enormous amount of tolerance towards her, but with the premise being that she was enough perceptive, and enough smart, knowing what she should do, and what she shouldn’t do. If she were to overstep her boundaries, she definitely won’t have a good end.

Rui Qinwang glanced at Rui Wangfei, directly seizing a servant girl. The servant girl stammered, momentarily unable to speak clearly. As a result, Li Hong Ming just directly let someone drag her down to be beaten to death with the rod. Afterwards, it was continuing onto the second servant girl. That servant girl, fearing that she would end up the same as the previous one, hurriedly spilled everything like a broken pea-pod.

Li Hong Ming already realized that he was the cause, his complexion unsightly and practically indescribable. However, will he admit to it? Definitely not! He’d just let someone inform Luo Jing Ying, that’s all.

Li Hong Ming’s gaze sharply swept towards Rui Wangfei. Rui Wangfei somewhat stiffly tugged the corner of her mouth, not saying a single word.

Li Hong Ming in the end didn’t lash out against Rui Wangfei. But if things just end like this, the melancholic air in his heart would truly be difficult to dispel. “This prince let you all serve the person, yet you all were lazy and inattentive. Now that the child is gone, you all should just go down to continue serving him. One, it’s to atone for your crimes, and two, it’s naturally to shield him so as to avoid him getting bullied. ———-All dragged down.”

“Wangye, wangye have mercy, wangye…………”

Was there any use in begging for mercy? Naturally it was useless. The guards directly set to the task, not the least bit gentle. And if they were to resist or cry, that blade at the waist will just directly land on the head, blood directly spilling instantly.

Rui Wangfei slightly averted her gaze, not wanting to see that bloody scene. Even if she’s also once ordered servants to be beaten to death with the rod before, even personally witnessing the execution get carried out, towards this kind of scene, she was still unable to adapt.

It’ll just be over with after beating to death these people? There was still the ‘main culprit’.

As the most direct poison tongue that provoked Luo Jing Ying, that woman had packed up her valuables, preparing to escape. But after finally spotting a chance to go out from the back door, just as she was about to step through the door, she was immediately caught. Afterwards, she was just dragged before Li Hong Ming. At this time, she was already bleeding from the head, but before Li Hong Ming even asked anything, she just threw out another name.

Rui Wangfei violently inhaled a breath. Already at this point, she also knew Rui Qinwang’s purpose. Clearly, as long as this woman just obediently dies, everything will be done with, yet at this time, still insist on biting back. Rui Wangfei hated that she couldn’t directly strangle her to death, but she couldn’t do anything.

And that mama of Rui Wangfei’s was also clearly aware of what she will be facing, perceptively walking out and kneeling down, directly stating that she had grudges with Concubine Ying, that’s why using the opportunity to retaliate against her, and was willing to accept her punishment. Compared to the others, she was exceptionally calm and composed.

Since she voluntarily came forward to quell his anger, Li Hong Ming naturally won’t hold back, waving his hand to let them take her down.

“Wangye………..” Rui Wangfei finally couldn’t hold back, getting up and pulling that mama, looking to Rui Qinwang with a plea.

However, Li Hong Ming’s gaze was exceptionally cold and sharp, unmoved in the slightest.

Rui Wangfei’s body lightly trembled, her hand clinging onto that mama’s clothes unwilling to let go. Because overly exerting her strength, her fingertips were turning white.

That mama gently and firmly brushed away Rui Wangfei’s hand. Wangye had lost a son, and although it was because of himself, she was the one that incited it. She was just a servant, so how can she be comparable to an imperial grandson? Right now, she just wishes to not implicate her family, just she didn’t dare plea for them. However, she believed that wangfei will preserve her family, “This servant in the future can’t continue to serve wangfei anymore, wangfei take care.”

Rui Wangfei uncontrollably retreated two steps backwards, her tears streaming down, but she hurriedly wiped them away. She didn’t go look at Rui Qinwang, because once she looked, she worried that she will revealed the hatred in her eyes. ———This man was just this cold and heartless by nature.

Li Hong Ming had the people taken care of cleanly, and afterwards, just left without turning back, completely not thinking of wanting to go in and look at the girl that had just lost her child. And the pain of losing a son seemingly also thoroughly disappeared without a trace already.

See, this was precisely the highly praised by outsiders Rui Qinwang. In his eyes, there was just that tall seat.

Actually, Rui Wangfei didn’t know that the reason why Li Hong Ming was this angry, it wasn’t just because of the child. There was also the matter with Jing Wan, and also the matter of Li Hong Yuan making his lose face, and further the humiliation of having gotten frightened by a glance from Li Hong Yuan.

In this courtyard of Luo Jing Ying’s, aside from her, there was not a single soul, including the rough laborers in charge of sweeping and cleaning. And the mess inside the room also have yet to be cleaned up. Towards Luo Jing Ying, Rui Wangfei previously still had a bit of sympathy, but after losing her mama, to be able to endure not ripping her apart was already her benevolence. In any case, the child was already gone. From now on, she will no longer give her any protection in the slightest. That’s right, if not for Rui Wangfei secretly warning the others in the rear court, Luo Jing Ying afraid would’ve long had a miscarriage, and perhaps would’ve even thrown in her life. From hereon out, Luo Jing Ying can only rise and perish on her own.

Just, this Concubine Ying, didn’t she love wangye to the point of disregarding everything? But, after wangye revealed his true colors, having her beaten into the dirt, she still endured, preserving her child, yet now because of hearing her own tang older sister’s news, had a miscarriage instead? Should say her love was too shallow, or towards her tang sister, she hated too deeply?

Rui Wangfei left with her own people, afterwards randomly arranging a few people to go serve Luo Jing Ying.

By the time Luo Jing Ying woke up, there was just an unfamiliar little servant girl by her bed. However, she temporarily wasn’t in the mood to bother with her, going to feel her stomach first thing. The originally already protruding stomach, originally already able to feel the movement, gone, her child was gone? Luo Jing Ying let out a heart shattering expression.

That child, from the moment she learned of its existence, she didn’t have any special feelings, just treating it as a tool that can bind that man to her, able to let her rise in status. Afterwards, because of Luo Jing Wan’s words, she even had the thought of aborting it. But, once she witnessed Rui Qinwang’s heartlessness and hypocrisy, at that time, can say, aside from this child in her stomach, she didn’t have anything else. As the child grew little by little, moving for the first time in her stomach, she finally sensed clearly this different kind of feeling. It was hard to describe, yet she felt warm inside, carrying an unprecedented expectation.

Now it was just gone!

Luo Jing Ying went crazy once again, disregarding her own body. The things that were just arranged got smashed by her again.

The little servant girl originally wanted to stop her, but Luo Jing Ying, in her eyes, was too scary, so she could only cower in a corner, fearing she would harm her. The little servant girl that hadn’t been trained before didn’t have the realization of ‘loyally protecting one’s master’. There were a few others outside, but it was obvious they were old foxes. Hearing the movements inside, they merely just stretched their necks for a glance, and afterwards, continued cracking melon seeds, idly chatting. The ins and outs of their words were all kinds of disdain towards Luo Jing Ying.

Everything that has happened in this courtyard previously, Rui Wangfei didn’t have the slightest intention of suppressing. That’s why, throughout the entire qinwang manor, those that should know and those that shouldn’t know, all knew. This was also Rui Wangfei clearly making her attitude and standing clear. For Luo Jing Ying, even her last trump was all gone. In the Rui Qinwang Manor rear court, having no connections, no assistance, no manpower, she could only wait to be slaughtered. How many people were preparing to come find amusement and see a joke.

Luo Jing Ying’s condition right now was bad to begin with, so before she could finish smashing, she just felt a wave of dizziness, collapsing onto the ground, blood flowing out from below again…………..

The little servant girl cowering in the corner finally cautiously came out, “Concubine Ying………..”

The little servant girl was just thinking of having her helped up when the person outside walked in, a somewhat mean looking girl. The broom struck the little servant girl’s body, “Still not quickly having the room cleaned up.”

“But……..”

“But what, quickly tidy up.” She was ruthlessly beat again.

The little servant girl was scared, no longer caring about Luo Jing Ying anymore. These people were all so mean.

The girl that had beated the little servant girl crouched down, smilingly looked to Luo Jing Ying, “Concubine Ying wants to smash things, but it’s best to take it easy. Wangfei already said, once the thing is smashed, it’ll be gone, and need to wait until next month’s ration. Today is just the sixth.”

Luo Jing Ying sometimes perhaps was a bit stupid, but right now, her IQ was definitely online. She was very clear of her own situation right now. The people that originally served her were all gone, if not dead, then it was just having been moved to another place. She has thoroughly become alone. No, perhaps from the start, she was already alone. In this qinwang manor, there simply wasn’t a place for her to establish herself.

“Support me back onto the bed.” Luo Jing Ying faintly spoke.

“Yo, Concubine Ying is still putting on airs now?” The girl very much disdained, even patting Luo Jing Ying’s face in humiliation.

Luo Jing Ying this while didn’t throw a tantrum, just apathetic as if having lost everything. “I am the Head Minister of Appointments Manor’s young lady.”

The girl was just like as if having heard an enormous joke, “In the manor, who doesn’t know that you don’t have a good relationship with the Luo family……..”

“So what, my surname is Luo, as long as I hold this surname, then you all, these lowly slaves, don’t even think about touching a single hair on me. I may be estranged with the Luo family, but even if they don’t want me, they won’t disregard the Luo family’s face. You all degrading me, in a certain sense, is the same as degrading the Luo family. In any case, right now, I don’t have anything at all, ‘those with bare feet don’t fear those wearing shoes’^[1]. If I directly hang myself to death, I rather want to see, what will wangye use to explain to the Luo family? And if I die, you all will also come down to accompany me.” Luo Jing Ying sinisterly smiled.

Have to say, Luo Jing Ying really did have them subdued. That’s right, she didn’t have anything at all, but her surname was just her greatest weapon. The Luo family right now was like the sun at its peak. If by chance someday they were to recall there was still this young lady by a whim, then they, these servants, will certainly be pushed out to give the Luo family an explanation.

“Support me onto the bed, the same thing, don’t make me say a third time.”

The girl suppressed her anger, having Luo Jing Ying supported up, crudely having her moved onto the bed.

“Bring over the medicine.” Luo Jing Ying right now was still ordering people by pointing her chin, not the least bit polite. Already having come this far, it wasn’t by weakening oneself, one will be able to be treated well. Since that’s the case, why the need to wrong oneself. To be able to carefreely live a day, one will just count a day.

Afterwards, the other concubines that came to see her joke, after entering the door, just saw this kind of scene. Originally it should be many negative emotions manifesting in one body, yet she appeared rather leisure, and the new servants were being ordered around by her, running in circles with a sullen look. ———Completely inconsistent with what one anticipated.

[1] Meaning there’s no misgivings at all, for example, when wearing shoes you would worry about the shoe getting dirty, but you won’t have that misgiving when barefoot. This is in the context of a time when shoes were a luxury, and for poor people, it was better to be barefoot than to get the valuable pair of shoes dirty.

T/N: I’ve mentioned before somewhat that LJY has a development/redemption arc, which is why her chapters really aren’t that bad to go through. It’s really based on how well the author writes certain characters. At least to me nothing can raise my blood pressure as much as that white lotus family. The Gu family are dead to me.
