Chapter 110.4: Moron, Surrounded By a Pack of Wolves

Moron, Surrounded By a Pack of Wolves (4)

Li Hong Yuan faintly replied with an 'en'. After hearing about Wan Wan letting Luo Jing Bo strictly guard against other women, he just knew, towards those people, Wan Wan very much disliked them. He felt, even if he was just putting on an act, it's still best for him to stop adding more people to the villa. Although he didn't mind at all Wan Wan coming to find him to settle the score in the future, those people however might prolong the time it takes for him to win over Wan Wan's affection. But, carefully thinking about it, from the moment he learned that Wan Wan was about to enter the capital, he seemingly didn't act out anymore 'seven day pampering'. Turns out, without even needing to deeply reflect, he already subconsciously restrained himself? When was he ever this obedient? Very good, another excuse for Wan Wan to compensate him.

"Yuan'er, how about letting Luo third miss become your wangfei?" Noble Consort Su smilingly said.

"Consort mother..........." Li Hong Ming instinctively wanted to open his mouth to stop her. This matter can't be handled like this.

Noble Consort Su swept him a glance, and Li Hong Ming could only shut his mouth.

Li Hong Yuan didn't have any reaction, "Consort mother wants to become enemies with Head Minister Luo?"

"This mainly depends on whether you like or not, everything else isn't all that important. Just, this young lady's status is a bit too low. If her father were to sit onto a fourth ranked official position, and afterwards let Head Minister Luo retire early, then have her father promoted, everything all wouldn't be a problem, how unfortunate. But, it's still possible for her to be your side consort."

"Before the throne, everything of this son's are all not important. Being able to rope in court official's support is the most important." The underlying meaning, just shut up, don't make these kinds of meaningless jokes. He just needed to wait for his old man to voluntarily issue a decree to bestow a marriage for Wan Wan and him of his own accord. Before that, just need to clear away the hinderances for himself, and for Wan Wan, create obstacles and then clear them away.

See, merely just one line's effort, how simple! Simple? Heavens, there are too many people eyeing Wan Wan. Taking care of them all one by one is also very tiring, not the least bit simple! Wan Wan's current situation is much more complicated than when during his past life. At that time, how she was specifically, he wasn't clear, but it was nothing more than just having her engagement cancelled by the Chen family in the next two days, then Chen Zheng Min's engagement to Princess Min Xiang had a bit of talk around town. And her? It was just silence without any news. Just, a month later, she was suddenly schemed against, and got engaged to her second fiancee. Afterwards, not long after she reached marriageable age, she got married and even married over when the groom side was still in mourning, just to avoid having her wait another three years. Speaking of which, at the time, the Luo family probably rather wished for her to wait another three years, right? So why would they let her marry at that time? There definitely must be a reason for this. Just unfortunately, Li Hong Yuan at the time simply didn't even know this person called Wan Wan existed and completely didn't pay attention to her affairs, so how would he be able to know the reason.

"Luo Old Madam's words, as expected, still had an affect on Yuan'er, right?" Noble Consort Su lightly sighed.

Li Hong Yuan slightly furrowed his brows and looked to Noble Consort Su, "Consort mother is thinking too much. How consort mother treats this son, it's not like this son can't feel it. Consort mother completely doesn't need to use this kind of method to prove anything."

"Yuan'er ah, consort mother, first and foremost, wishes for you to be well, everything else all can be reconsidered."

Li Hong Yuan casted Li Hong Ming a glance. Sacrificing her real biological son's interests to fulfill a fostered son's 'likes', no wonder your actual son often feels you're bias to your fostered son. Since you already did those 'two things', then having these things done to this extent, what's the point? "Consort mother doesn't need to worry about this son."

Noble Consort Su smiled, "That's right, Yuan'er, consort mother heard that you'd asked Luo third miss for her secret skincare recipe, preparing to give to consort mother. Consort mother has been waiting this whole time, but until now, still haven't seen a trace of it."

"Forgot." Li Hong Yuan indifferently spoke.

Noble Consort Su however laughed with her mouth covered, because she could sense her son's awkwardness, "That Luo third miss too, if you don't ask her for it, doesn't she not know to voluntarily give it to you."

"Voluntarily give something to this son? Does she not want her reputation anymore?"

"Alright, alright, remember to bring it to consort mother to try soon. Consort mother saw that Luo third miss's skin is indeed speechlessly good."

TN: All

"Understood." Li Hong Yuan carried a bit of annoyance, "Women are just troublesome."

"Stupid brat, what are you saying?" Noble Consort Su lightly slapped him.

Li Hong Yuan frowned, restraining the impulse to dodge.

Despite seeing that her son was indeed annoyed, Noble Consort Su however was unwilling to let him off the hook. "Consort mother sees that Yuan'er's skin is also good. Your skin is just a bit deeper in color because you're a man, else you wouldn't be able to escape from being a natural born beauty either."

Li Hong Yuan's face darkened. "Consort mother, enough."

Noble Consort Su however couldn't help laughing out loud.

Li Hong Ming watched the two of them act intimate and joke around as if no one else was present, while he himself was like an outsider. If there were those who weren't in the know present, who would believe that he was actually Noble Consort Su's actual biological son? Despite clearly knowing that the reason for this was nothing more than just consort mother having him viewed as the heir to the throne, raising him strictly, and towards Li Hong Yuan, it was instead like raising a real son, he still can't help but feel jealous inside. Li Hong Yuan had already monopolized all of imperial father's indulgence and pampering, and possessed all of consort mother's care and affections. Even if consort mother had ensured him that imperial father would never pass the throne to Li Hong Yuan no matter what, but so what? He received too much, to the point where it was hard for him to endure until imperial father's death before he can sort him out. But, other than enduring, he still could only endure.

Li Hong Ming tensed his throat, swallowing down the bitterness and unwillingness to resign.

Li Hong Yuan didn't need to look to understand what he was thinking, coldly sneering in his heart.

"Your Highness, his Majesty let someone directly have Luo third miss sent out of the palace, and additionally sent someone to Kunyi Palace to get Luo Old Madam."

Noble Consort Su was surprised, "This quick?"

"Seems some important governmental affair came up."

"Understood." If it was emergency governmental affair, then it's not surprising. Encountering important governmental affair, everything else all needed to move to the side. "His Majesty actually had the person directly sent out of the palace. Looks like this is not wanting to have the person left in the inner palace for us to meet her alone. Say, what do you all think his Majesty means by this, can't be that he himself was also moved.........."

"Consort mother, imperial father won't do something that lacking in decorum." Li Hong Yuan interrupted her. If he really had this kind of thought, then even if he's his old man, Li Hong Yuan still won't hesitate to commit regicide and patricide. As long as it's someone that wants to steal Wan Wan from him, regardless of who they are, they will certainly become his(LHY) enemy, death without pardon!

"Alright, alright, this young lady isn't a daughter from a regional official's family after all. Your imperial father hasn't selected candidates for the harem in many years, the young and beautiful ones in the harem, for the most part, were all voluntarily sent over by the regional officials." Noble Consort Su said and coldly smiled.

"That's why, women are just troublesome."

"You ah, your patience towards women forever won't surpass seven days."

"This son will withdraw first." Li Hong Yuan impatiently turned and walked away.

"Yuan'er........."

"Going to get the secret recipe for you."

Noble Consort Su smiled. This son of hers has never had much patience towards the same woman, but she as his consort mother have always been an exception. Even when he was young, violently irritable to the point where he would smash things, he would still finish listening to all her words, and impatiently reply with his mouth, with a look like he'd forget as soon as he turned his head. But in reality, he had every single thing all remembered tightly.

Li Hong Ming remained silent. If he were to open his mouth at this time, he probably would only get lectured.

...

Li Hong Yuan unhesitantly blocked Jing Wan, "Doesn't Luo third miss still owe this prince something?"

Jing Wan nodded, "Wangye, can you let someone go to the Luo Manor to fetch it later?"

"No need, why don't you just open a store yourself? If it really is useful, this prince will directly send it into the palace. How much you want for it, whether it be a few hundred thousand or a few million, do as you please, this prince doesn't lack money the most."

Jing Wan tugged the corner of her mouth. What does it mean to be rich? This is what rich truly means! Converting the numbers, just this bit of skincare products, already throwing down tens of thousands. In her past life, those that threw money at houses and cars, what did they count as? Too weak alright! "Then this one will do just as wangye said, this subject will have it prepared as soon as possible."
