Chapter 565.2: Leaving White Dragon Temple
“Grandmaster, some things, must be done. As the saying goes, if a blessing, then not a misfortune, but if a disaster, then unable to avoid. Even if avoiding this time, one may not necessarily be able to avoid next time. Moreover, if avoided, then the second time perhaps will be even more dangerous. I’ve never studied the buddhist doctrine before, but this in the buddhist doctrine, should be very easy to explain.” Jing Wan rather calmly said.
Grandmaster Liao Chen nodded. Just like back then when he didn’t agree to directly drawing the red strings for Li Hong Yuan and Jing Wan. Some processes can’t be skipped. If directly jumping to the good ending, then other matters might come about to make up for this deficiency. The more smooth it is originally, the more difficult it might become later. A level one difficulty will get increased to three or even more.
“Since that’s the case, this humble monk won’t stop wangfei, only wishing for wangfei to be safe in this trip.” Grandmaster Liao Chen put his two hands together, offering a prayer. “If wangfei doesn’t mind, this humble monk will draw three safety talismans for wangfei.”
“Can’t ask for more, many thanks grandmasters.”
Talismans personally drawn by Grandmaster Liao Chen, regardless of which kind, similarly all depended on fate. And those talismans leaking to the outside absolutely were priceless.
Jing Wan had everything planned. On a certain morning, taking the medicine from Fu Rong, if she does it, then Gong mama naturally won’t be able to suspect anything. That’s why, the sullen and angered Gong mama once again got knocked out by the drug. If she were to know that it even came from her own master’s hand, then don’t know what kind of expression she will have. However, who let Jing Wan be the master. That’s why, aside from feeling sullen, there was nothing to be done, simply unable to win back.
And the amount of drug Fu Rong stole from Gong Jiu’s place was also quite limited. This time, there really was nothing left.
Aside from Gong mama, the others, if Jing Wan wants to send out or brush off, it wasn’t anything difficult. Everything all appeared calm and easy-going. Jing Wan had one hand propped against Fu Rong’s arm, just like normally when taking walks.
Afterwards, not long after leaving Grandmaster Liao Chen’s courtyard, they just got blocked by Hei Mei. “Wangfei, please let this servant go with you.” Clearly, Hei Mei was aware of Jing Wan’s plans.
Jing Wan inwardly sighed. She miscalculated. She originally had seven first rank servant girls. Four have married, and the ones that were separately promoted up really weren’t as valued as the original. Although taking a first rank’s salary, they nevertheless did the work of a second rank. And the remaining three, Qing Ju ‘committed a crime’ thus got left in the manor, so by her side there was just Fu Rong and Hei Mei. Originally, in Jing Wan’s view, Hei Mei was ‘capable but simple-minded’. Of course, it wasn’t saying that she was brainless, just compared to the others, matters that involved brain power, she was just a bit weaker, further liking martial arts, greatly having the intention of spending the rest of her life with martial arts.
Jing Wan originally figured that she just needed to leave White Dragon Temple. The later matters, because she’d left a letter, once Gong mama wakes up, Gong mama naturally will take care of, yet never thought that she’d get caught red-handed by Hei Mei, and don’t know when she’d started noticing. “Hei Mei, this trip is very dangerous. You all following me, won’t have any use, and instead might have your life thrown in.”
“Even if no use, presumably won’t become a burden to wangfei either. Wangfei, right now you’re pregnant, having an extra person taking care of you should be better. As for one’s life? From the moment this servant started serving by wangfei’s side, this servant’s everything just belong to wangfei. There’s nothing to mind.” Hei Mei said it rather calmly.
“You’re insisting on coming?”
“Wherever wangfei goes, this servant will go.” Hei Mei was very firm.
“Ordering you to stay behind also won’t work?”
“Wangfei, please forgive, special circumstances need to be handled specially. If still able to come back alive, then this servant is willing to accept the punishment.”
Jing Wan was helpless and could only agree, because if they drag on any longer, Gong mama will wake. Then, they really won’t be able to leave. Others perhaps won’t be able to dissuade her, nor will they be able to keep her, but Gong mama was able to, and moreover, will definitely succeed in doing so. Fu Rong already doesn’t have anymore medicine on her. That’s why, this was the only chance. “Hei Mei, if possible, preserve yourself as much as possible.”
TN: All
Hei Mei remained silent. Clearly, she simply didn’t have the words taken in.
Jing Wan no longer said anything, continuing on her way. Hei Mei glanced at Fu Rong who was quiet the whole time, and then walked to Jing Wan’s other side, acting as a qualifying protector. Jing Wan didn’t say anything, and they also just remained in absolute silence.
Since they want to have Jing Wan taken away, the horse carriage for descending the mountain naturally was long prepared. The horse was just a normal horse, and the carriage’s exterior also appeared quite normal. But, after climbing onto the carriage, Jing Wan slightly narrowed her eyes. This horse carriage’s comfort level can almost match the horse carriage that her husband specially prepared for her.
Truthfully speaking, even if her worth was very big, for the other party, she was still nothing more than just a bargaining chip, a hostage. As long as still alive, then she just had enough worth. This kind of good treatment completely wasn’t necessary, appearing very strange.
However, regardless of how she thought inside, she all didn’t show it on the surface. No matter what, in her current situation, to be able to have a comfortable environment, it was still pretty good, just don’t know whether or not she will have severe carriage sickness. Even though, under normal circumstances, her carriage sickness was already not that serious.
Of course, although this horse carriage was comfortable enough, there were still unsatisfying areas. Just like for example, the entirety of it was just like a small prisoner carrier. The carriage windows had wooden lattice, and the curtains were on the outside, simply unable to be opened. The roof actually had an opening, seemingly also having a cover at the top, needless to worry about the wind and rain. This kind of design, it goes without saying, was for the sake of blocking her line of sight. Normally, it should be directly covering the eyes. From this, one can see the other party’s earnest effort.
Inside, Jing Wan vaguely had a guess already. What she needed to do right now was just silently wait.
Since they didn’t want to let her see, Jing Wan was also too lazy to pay attention to anything, directly closing her eyes to rest. In any case, she didn’t have the ability to just rely on subtle sounds to distinguish the objects and direction outside.
Time silently passed little by little. Sensing every fetal movement, perhaps the child was worried for her, the mother, so when moving, it wasn’t considered intense. Moreover, Jing Wan actually didn’t have any symptoms of dizziness or chest pain in the slightest. It couldn’t be better.
And during the following journey, Jing Wan also discovered, their speed wasn’t that fast, seemingly completely traveling according to her endurance level. This was also completely different from what she’d expected previously, seemingly acting in a way that defeats its purpose. After all, her husband has departed for quite some time already. Reasonably speaking, it should be trying to catch up as quickly as possible, yet at present, at certain intervals, they would just let her down to get some air and move around. And in terms of food, it was also very meticulous.
Three days later, the person Jing Wan wanted to meet finally appeared.
Although having already guessed it, when actually meeting, she was still very astonished.
This astonishment, however, didn’t last for very long, seemingly just passing in a flicker, “Gentleman Sun.” Jing Wan opened her mouth.
