Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife-Chapter 593.2: The Empress Governs the Country II

The Empress Governs the Country II (2)

Afterward, what awaited them was the graceful and elegant empress. Some even refused to believe, glancing behind her, very rude, and at the same time, also very stupid.

Jing Wan pretended to not see, directly walking behind the imperial desk.

“We subjects greet her Highness the Empress.” Regardless of what, since she was already sitting there, then can they even ignore her? Clearly no.

“His Majesty is unwell, so the big and small matters of the court will temporarily be handled by this empress in his place. If unable to handle, this empress will take back, asking his Majesty to look over.” Jing Wan neither quickly nor slowly said.

Speaking of which, for this kind of thing, it was ultimately her first time. Even though back at Jin Qinwang Manor, she’d also handled quite a few things before, but the nature of the two was completely different, and the people she needed to face was also different. Jing Wan’s confidence wasn’t that ample. However, she had her husband’s support, so just need to slow down the pace, and regardless whether it’s a big or small matter, all just need to take it slowly and calmly, giving others a steady impression, having an ample stance. And if there’s a problem, just ask without hesitation. In any case, she was the empress. Even if wrong, they also won’t dare to laugh at her, instead needing to patiently explain, and if she has any viewpoints, also don’t need to hesitate to say. This process was just her learning and growth process. Once she slowly becomes accustomed, then everything will become smooth.

Of course, it was impossible for things to be that simple, otherwise how could there be that many either praiseworthy or condemnable emperors.

This actually also emphasized on natural talent. If one’s natural talent is good, then naturally able to master quickly.

Jing Wan’s natural talent in this aspect perhaps not that insane, but it was still extremely outstanding. That’s why, Li Hong Yuan didn’t believe that she will cause any mishaps. Even if there’s some small problems, the court officials were completely capable of making up for it. Because of this, Li Hong Yuan was quite carefree in throwing everything to her.

And in the inner palace, when having nothing to do, he just stared at the little crown prince. ———There weren’t any joy, but there weren’t any negative emotions either, his gaze just a bit deep, appearing quite scary. Never mind the palace servants uncontrollably shivering a little, even the tiny little crown prince seemingly was very perceptive, originally loudly bawling, but after getting stared at by his old man, he just gradually stopped, pitifully sobbing softly, appearing very pitiful.

These things, Jing Wan naturally didn’t know. However, even if knowing, she couldn’t say anything either. Setting aside the fact that a certain someone was just ‘staring’ at their son, even if going up and smacking a few times, Jing Wan also had no way of ‘taking revenge’ for her son. Right now, she was wholeheartedly devoted to handling governmental affairs.

Because changes were made to the memorandums, it was completely effortless in reading. Jing Wan looked through diligently. For many things, she would first give her own view, and then inquire the court officials’ opinion.

After examining through in this way, Jing Wan discovered that the things she learned in Jin Qinwang Manor really weren’t learned in vain. More than ninety percent of the matters, she was all able to handle, and the rest, she also wasn’t completely at a loss either. Through the court officials’ few words of ‘advice’, she was also able to very quickly organize her thoughts.

As such, the atmosphere grew increasingly harmonious, forming into a ‘proper’ scene between the ruler and the ministers.

This was what it should be like between ruler and minister. The court officials that thought this weren’t in the minority. Afterwards, seeing the empress on the throne, they couldn’t help but freeze, directly cursing inside. The empress was more like an emperor than the actual emperor, what the hell was all this. However, even though on the inside, they perhaps still didn’t approve, they were still amazed by Jing Wan’s abilities in this aspect. Perhaps she was still somewhat lacking, but to be able to achieve this step, it still made one have a whole new level of respect for her. After all, because she was a woman, when looking upon her, they actually all carried a nitpicky and questioning gaze. That’s why, if viewing with a normal mentality, her performance was actually even better. At least, she was much stronger than the retired emperor. The retired emperor was someone that has ruled as emperor for twenty to thirty years!

Because of acknowledging her abilities, their conflicting feelings towards her actually reduced a little, perhaps also understanding why his Majesty was able to this easily have everything handed over to the empress.

After handling everything, the entire morning had more or less passed.

“Why don’t everyone use the meal in the palace. After noon, there’s still one more thing that needs to be discussed with everyone. ———–Mu An, tell the imperial kitchen to prepare a few more good dishes.”

TN: All

“Yes, your Highness.” Eunuch Mu who was serving by the side responded, going out to pass on the order.

“Thanks your Highness.”

“You all have also worked hard, so let’s just stop here for now. After the afternoon meal, you all can first rest for a while.” After saying this, Jing Wan just got up, leaving the imperial study and returning to the inner palace.

“Respectfully sending off your Highness.”

Jing Wan returned to Kunyi Palace. The place appeared as if nothing had happened, very much tranquil.

“Where’s his Majesty?” Jing Wan was curious. How come she didn’t see the person inside?

“Replying to your Highness, his Majesty is in the imperial gardens fishing.” A palace maid replied with her head lowered, her eyes clearly having indescribable complications.

“Fishing?” Fishing in the imperial gardens? The imperial gardens, regardless of which area, probably only raised ornamental fish for viewing. Jing Wan really didn’t know what kind of expression she should have, especially after arduously handling governmental affairs for an entire morning, yet a certain someone was this idle and carefree. Sure enough, she just felt very unbalanced inside. Carrying this kind of feeling, Jing Wan wanted to directly charge over, but suddenly paused in her step, “Where’s the crown prince?”

“Replying to your Highness, the crown prince is by his Majesty’s side.”

The bad feeling in Jing Wan’s heart grew even denser, “How long has it been?”

“Replying to your Highness, already two hours.”

This time, Jing Wan no longer hesitated in the slightest, picking up her pace.

Li Hong Yuan wasn’t in the pavilion, just sitting by a lotus pond, appearing carefree to the point of making one want to beat him up.

The little crown prince’s cradle was just by his side, within arms reach. In the surrounding, there was a crowd of people, that expression truly was very conflicting, yet due to the rules, they couldn’t blatantly reveal it. Jing Wan took it in, feeling that their faces were all about to distort.

Jing Wan reduced her pace, walking up, first looking at her son. The little guy’s round eyes were wide open, covered with a layer of mist, his mouth pouting. When ‘seeing’ Jing Wan, he seemingly felt even more wronged, able to cry out at any time.

Jing Wan felt bad for him, and just as she reached out to hold him………

“Empress has finished handling the governmental affairs?” Li Hong Yuan’s voice slowly sounded.

Jing Wan slightly froze, and looked towards Li Hong Yuan. The other party carried a vague smile, propping up his chin with one hand, staring at Jing Wan just like that. He very rarely addressed her as ’empress’, but whenever he used it, it for the most part was all related to their son.

“Your Majesty is rather carefree and idle.”

Li Hong Yuan nodded, “Taking our son out for some sun and fishing. Didn’t empress also want the two of us to bond more? This is all for the sake of granting empress’s wish. Our son is also very well-behaved, never once crying.”

Jing Wan wanted to cry for her son.

Actually, Jing Wan was also very baffled. Her son, once he started bawling, that was absolutely deafening, yet he actually was able to quietly stay by his old man’s side for two hours. It was practically a miracle. Clearly, just a tiny child, probably only knowing to bawl when hungry.

As such, it made Jing Wan for a time wonder whether or not this child was also like her ‘born with awareness’? However, after carefully observing, seemingly aside from behaving strangely in front of his old man, at other times, he seemingly was just what an infant should be like.

Li Hong Yuan got up, reaching out to hold Jing Wan’s hand, “Come, it’s time for the meal.”

Jing Wan slightly exerted strength under her foot, not following along, instead fixedly staring at him.

Li Hong Yuan lifted his brow, “Wan Wan is dissatisfied with the fact that I spend too little time with our son? Fine then, as long as I have time, I will all have him carried by the side.” He glanced at the little crown prince’s wet nurse to the side, “Have the crown prince brought along……..”
