<h4>Chapter 154: This Prince Will Take Revenge For You</h4>


    Jing Wan’s first reaction was just, this was encountering another arrogant attribute carrying braindead idiot?


    (T/N: Some of the terminology the author uses are very RPG-like.)


    Could it be that this was themon logic that belonged to this typing? Alright, in this distinctly hierarchical setting, where the other party belongs to that batch of people at the top of the food chain, sitting high and above was as it should be by all rights, and believing that one’s face was big without bounds was also only to be expected. As long as there was something that didn’t go ording to their wishes in the slightest, then that was the same as sweeping their face. These people can be rotten on the inside, but this face, sometimes, was more important than their life. If damaged in the slightest, then they can bring out their relentless attitude.


    But, Jing Wan seemingly also had a foot in that stratum now. Grandfather and grandmother both said, she can live more wantonly, and more selfishly. Then right now, she can refuse, so why would she need to use this kind of self-deprecating method to help give someone else face? Although right now, she was nothing more than ‘the fox exploiting the tiger’s might’,pletely borrowing her future husband’s title, but the so called luck was also a kind of strength, so having the ability to borrow was naturally also considered a kind of strength. Furthermore, even if she didn’t have this fiancee, just based on her grandfather’s power and position, Gong Wangfei still wouldn’t be able to do anything to her, right?


    Jing Wan yed with the buddhist beads on her wrist. Given a way out, yet they don’t want to step down, then one can’t me her if face is lost, no? She looked to Gong Wangfei, and faintly smiled, “If wangfei insist on thinking this, then this subject doesn’t have anything to say either.”


    Never mind Gong Wangfei, majority of the people present all were in somewhat disbelief. This was borrowing guts from the heavens?


    “Impudent!” Gong Wangfei shot up, directly smashing her cup.


    Gong Wangfei was exploding in anger. The servants all kept quiet out of fear.


    Rather, it was those that were ssified as Li Hong Yuan’s sister-inws that had a ‘sitting on a wall watching a y’ look.


    Jing Wan remained unmoved, slightly tilting her head like she was thinking of something. A momentter, she stood up, “If wangfei doesn’t wee this subject, then just directly ask for me to leave. There’s no need to be this unsightly. No one is a fool, no? This subject will take one’s leave right away.” Jing Wan curtsied, and neither slowly nor quickly turned away, her steps nonchnt. That truly was preparing to leave right away.


    Gong Wangfei’splexion was deathly pale from anger. Since birth, no one has ever dared to not give her face like this, “What do you take this ce for,ing and going as you please?”


    Afterwards, Jing Wan got blocked.


    Jing Wan stopped in her tracks, turning to look at Gong Wangfei, “Then, what does wangfei want to do?”


    Gong Wangfei coldly smiled, “Mama, tell our Luo third miss, what kind of offense is disrespecting the imperial family.”


    “Presumably wangfei misunderstood, this subject isn’t disrespecting the imperial family, but rather just disrespecting a person that wishes to humiliate this subject for no reason, that’s all. For better or worse, this subject’s grandfather is still the Head Minister of Appointments, and adoptive mother is the Grand Elder Princess. It doesn’t matter if this subject alone is insulted, but if they also get implicated, that won’t be good, right wangfei?” A dignified wangfei, disgracing someone else first, if she really wants to pin her a bigbel, then she’ll also have to provide an exnation, no? If you admit your mistake first, then she’ll also acknowledge disrespecting the imperial family. When timees, even if she gets punished, Gong Wangfei’s arrogant and overbearing reputation will also spread.


    “You………”


    Jing Wan remained unmoved. From beginning to end, she waspletely calm.


    In this world, she naturally didn’t stupidly pursue something like equality. That was simply something no one has ever heard of before. Even the ironw, among the privileged upper ss, actually can also be considered child’s y. Jing Wan wasn’t born into the lowest rung of society, so inparison, she still had some speaking authority. That’s why, Jing Wan still strived to protect herself, and protect the people at her side.


    “Luo third miss is rather sharp-tongued.”


    “Because most of the times, this subject likes to tell the truth, and doesn’t know how to speak in a roundabout manner, so indeed not that likable.”


    Being sharp-tongued, this kind of reputation, for a youngdy, wasn’t anything good either, but Jing Wan just nonchntly countered it. Say she’s not good? Doesn’t matter, everyone will just be ‘not good’ together.


    And while Gong Wangfei was being angered to death by Jing Wan, on the male guest side, Li Hong Yuan immediately learned of the matter on the other side. Originally, he was also just drinking alone by himself. Because Jing Wan was here, he thus didn’t leave, but to think someone dared to bully his wife. However, that was a woman after all, and even his sister-inw. If he directly did something to her, then even if he was in the right, he’d still be the one in the wrong.


    Li Hong Yuan directly let someone go bring arge jug of wine over and open the sealing y. He then picked it up and directly walked towards Gong Qinwang.


    The court officials who were currently speaking with Gong Qinwang, upon seeing this living Enmaing over, hurriedly excused themselves, fearing they’ll bring disaster upon themselves.


    Gong Qinwang first nked, and then immediately realized something too, subconsciously turning, “Sixth brother, is something the matter?”


    Speaking of which, these brothers of his, the most sullen thing for them was probably needing to constantly abide by etiquette, yet there was just a certain someone who didn’t followmon courtesy. Even if you were angered to the extreme, afterwards, you still can only pretend like nothing happened and be a good brother.


    Li Hong Yuan went forward, slightly exerting his strength, lifting the wine jug a little. His hand shifted from the side downward, his palm propping the bottom of the jug, “Offering fourth imperial brother a jug of wine, help yourself.”


    Heavens, toasting wine by the jugs? Even a bull wouldn’t be able to bear that much, right? Just by smelling this wine, he just knew, never mind a jug, even downing half a jug, one would still copse immediately. This prince didn’t even provoke you this time, so what the hell kind of mischief are you stirring up right now?! “Sixth brother, could it be that you’re joking with fourth brother?”


    “Fourth imperial brother’s not willing to ept? This is fourth imperial brother not giving this prince face?” Li Hong Yuan slightly narrowed his eyes, his violent aura condensing in his eyes, like that of a man-devouring beast about to break out of its cage.


    Gong Qinwang waspletely frightened by Li Hong Yuan’s eyes, subconsciously retreating a step, and it was precisely this reaction that made Gong Qinwang increasingly burn in anger. His hand behind his back tightly clenched, and the blue veins on the back of his hand violently bulged out. He silently held back his anger with all his willpower, his voice practically squeezed out from the cracks between his teeth, “Li Hong Yuan, don’t be too much.”


    “Then, you really aren’t going to give face?”


    “Why does this prince need to drink, how big is your face?” Gong Qinwang lowered his voice, but in this the dead silence, where even the sound of a needle falling could be heard, too many people heard these words.


    “Really not going to drink?” The violent air in Li Hong Yuan’s eyes unexpectedly weakened a little, seemingly as if saying ‘if you don’t want to drink, then never mind’.


    “If I don’t drink, what can you do?” Gong Qinwang was clearly nning on being unyielding to the end.


    “It seems this prince really can’t do anything to you. For better or worse, still imperial father’s son, so this prince really can’t have you ughtered either.” Li Hong Yuan said, retracting his hand. The wine jug in his hand directly fell, shattering with a thud, the wine and shards flying in all directions.


    Gong Qinwang hurriedly moved away, but naturally was still not at all surprisingly sttered. “Li Hong Yuan———”


    However, Li Hong Yuan motionlessly stood in the same spot. Even if the porcin shards flew towards his lower leg, he was stillpletely unconcerned, “All say for persimmons pick the soft ones to pinch. This prince can’t move you, but there are still quite a few people this prince can move.” His eyes swept across everyone present, and those that heard these words of his all hated that they can’t immediately dig a hole and bury themselves. But in reality, not a single one dared to move, fearing that if they moved, they will instead enter this living Enma’s eyes. “Where’s Qin Tian Ming?”


    What did a little bandit count as, if one wants to test the de, then need to find a big one, that way it’ll be more interesting when chopping.


    “Li Hong Yuan, you dare!” Gong Qinwang nearly exploded.


    Just now, he even thought that his unyielding stance made the unapologetic Li Hong Yuan admit defeat, this was something that even his imperial father has never aplished, and was just feeling pleased with himself. But in the end, the person this bastard decided to go after practically made him even more unbearable than just directly stabbing him. After all, towards him, Li Hong Yuan would still have misgivings, but his father-inw, don’t look at how he’s a military general, Li Hong Yuan’s martial art skills were definitely above the other party’s. If he really touched his father-inw, then it’ll make his ipetence appear even more prominent, and it’ll make those that support him all lose hope and be disappointed. That loss was practically not on the same level.


    “Master, the Left Commander-in-Chief, this while, still hasn’t arrived, presumably is still at the yamen.”


    Indeed, just a qin-wangfei’s birthday, so the ones that came were mostly womenfolk. For those court officials, if they can rush over for a meal before the feast starts, it was already not bad, and that was just giving Gong Qinwang face. Majority all won’t appear.


    “If the old man isn’t present then just his sons work too.” Li Hong Yuan extended his hand, like stretching his fingers.


    Not long after his voice dropped, three of Qin Tian Ming’s sons were dragged over by his bodyguards and thrown before Li Hong Yuan like dead dogs. Have to say, the father was clearly a tiger, but these three were instead trembling in fear, not having any backbone.


    Li Hong Yuan directly shot his foot over, not holding back at all.


    Gong Qinwang wanted to stop him, but Li Hong Yuan merely sidestepped and effortlessly evaded him. Afterwards, whoever that kick was suppose tond on was precisely who itnded on. However, in a blink of an eye, anguished wails sounded one after another. The three of them all got kicked over, and moreover, each and every one all vomiting blood, one hundred percent injuring their organs.


    Gong Qinwang’s liver exploded from anger. One has to know, these three were all his brother-inws. Although his father-inw’s most regarded eldest di son wasn’t present, but if three of his sons got injured because of him in Gong Qinwang Manor, then wouldn’t his father-inw have all the responsibility all med on his head? The one to suffer the consequences in the end will only be him. After all, his father-inw was his greatest reliance, and didn’t have any rtion at all with Li Hong Yuan. Qin Tian Ming won’t dare to and also can’t touch Li Hong Yuan.


    Gong Qinwang’s eyes reddened in anger, fixedly wanting to pounce towards Li Hong Yuan.


    Li Hong Yuan turned to step aside, “Are you sure you want to fight with this prince? If you get physical with this prince first and get injured, don’t me this prince.” He flexed his wrist, his eyes even carrying an obvious evil intent.


    Gong Qinwang’s rationality returned a little. But more importantly within his line of sight, he saw Kang Qinwang. Recalling how this eldest brother once nearly became crippled because of Li Hong Yuan, his heart birthed fear, and naturally appeared to shrink back. If the officials that supported him saw, don’t know whether they should be disappointed that he’s a spineless coward, or gratified that he’s able to be flexible? “Why? Li Hong Yuan, this prince will just ask you, what are you going insane for this time?”


    “This question, you can actually go ask fourth sister-inw. Her disgracing this prince over there, this prince can’t do anything to her, so naturally will just have to earn it back from you. But you said this prince can’t move you, so naturally can only retrieve one’s face back from someone else. Remember to let Qin Tian Minge confess his wrongdoings to this prince.” He tidied his sleeves and then just left. After a few steps, he stopped again, “Mu An, inform the people of the Luo family, they can just leave.”
