When Helian Jiao Er came to her senses, she saw that Su Yanmo had held her hand.
If it weren’t for that, she would have rushed forward.
Everyone around looked at her like she was a mad woman, It made Helian Jiao Er wish she could find a hole and hide inside it.
From when did she fall from the genius that everyone envied to such a plight now.
Helian Jiao Er felt the hate till her gums itched, but she was not able to take it out on Helian Wei Wei. Her eyes were red rimmed.
Su Yanmo looked at her beloved daughter whom she never imagined would be so ruined, like she had been punched viciously by someone. She could not bear it but she had to comfort her:
Jiao Er, listen to me. Even though the big wedding is over, things won’t be good between them. You know very well that the Third Prince doesn’t fancy this type of woman. Besides, with her ugly looks, no man would be able to tolerate her, and the Third Prince won’t touch her. Besides, in a short while, it will be the country’s big celebration and that person will surely be back. As long as that person is back, the vile spawn will definitely be kicked out.
The person mother is referring to is the servant girl who looked after His Highness?
Helian Jiao Er’s eyes filled with evil intentions.
Su Yanmo looked around and lowered her voice:
That’s her. Actually mother did not want to tell you for fear you will be more depressed as you truly like the Third Prince. However, with the way things are now, I might as well tell you. Then the two of you can join forces to take the vile spawn down. How can that ugly woman compare to the two of you who are as beautiful as jade.
But I am to be married into the Huai family, how can I and the Third Prince…..
Helian Jiao Er bit her thin lip, a woman who is betrothed to someone else hooking up with another is not a good thing.
Su Yanmo’s eyes looked serious:
Jiao Er, you have to remember, in this world only if you win you are right. Just like when mother told you to snatch away Murong Changfeng, it is the same logic.
But at that time he didn’t do anything to me. It was just purely out of hatred for that little wretch.
Helian Jiao Er frowned:
It is the little wretch’s fault. Not only is she born ugly, but she wouldn’t leave the young master alone, of course he was disgusted with her.
Su Yanmo smiled:
You see, even the young master couldn’t stand her face, let alone the Third Prince. Jiao Er, just you wait, when the time comes, mother will take revenge for you!
Snap!
Baili Jiajue stepped on the last stage of the white jade ladder. All of the civil and military officials standing in the main hall were shocked by the actions of the Baili Jiajue. They subconsciously looked to the center of the main hall.
The Emperor and Empress were sat there. They wore their dragon and phoenix robes. They had a decent smile on their faces and spoke in shallow whispers. It was peaceful and prosperous. However, the moment they saw Baili Jiajue walking in, they stared blankly.
Only the retired Emperor carrassed his beard and laughed, his cool laughter echoed through the hall:
Seeing how well these two children get along, this old man is relieved. Come, come and start the tea ceremony!
Baili Jiajue stood alone in the middle of the hall and bent over to put Helian Wei Wei down.
Almost immediately, the palace ladies and eunuchs brought out the prepared teapots and teacups.
Helian Wei Wei could not make out who was who and only listened to the noises around and did as she needed to.
Everything appeared lively and festive.
It was only when the Empress took the teacup from Helian Wei Wei’s hand, a glint flashed across her eyes……
After they had finished their tea, Baili Jiajue sent her off with someone else:
Take the Imperial Consort to her room to rest.
Upon hearing that, Helian Wei Wei did not stop to think and asked:
What about you, where are you going?
I have to drink some more with grandfather.
After he said that, he paused and when he spoke again, his voice was even more charming than usual:
Don’t worry, I won’t let you wait long.
Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows, for some reason, she felt that the words His Highness just said sounded strange.
The Fire Unicorn was stood by the side of the two of them, upon hearing those words, it looked at her with sympathy.
Covered with a veil, she was unable to tell from north south east or west and could only follow the two servants as they led her away.
In the main hall, drinks were flowing and there was singing and dancing.
Nangong Lie played with the wine glass in his hand and leaned over to Baili Jiajue. He placed a hand on his shoulder, he looked devilishly amused and smiled as he said:
Ah Jue, I didn’t know you knew how to hold a woman, it is really unexpected.
I also know how to chop off your hands.
Baili Jiajue’s clear voice sounded dangerous:
Do you want to try?
Nangong Lie raised both his hands up immediately and surrendered:
I just think that this time your game has gone too far. You did so much just for a prey. Those people outside hate you so much they want to kill you every year. Now that you’ve exposed your martial qi, they will definitely not stop.
That’s even better, besides my hands are itchy.
Baili Jiajue remembered the monks from today and his pupils deepened.
His stare was so cold that it made the hairs on Nangong Lie’s scalp go numb and he changed the topic:
Let’s stop talking about these old men.
He looked at Baili Jiajue meaningfully and said:
I have sent over a wedding gift. This evening you will definitely be surprised.
Baili Jiajue glanced at him briefly with no expression of interest in his face.
Nangong Lie lowered his head and calculated the time, the corner of his lips slowly rose up, he wondered how strong the eldest Helian missy’s resistance to the medicine was.
However, this medicine was so powerful that it could not be forced out with martial qi.
He was their tightly fitted jacket. On their wedding night, if there wasn’t something extra special, how could it be memorable…..
The sun had set, the wind outside was getting stronger.
Helian Wei Wei was sat in the wedding room, fresh flowers in the hall and the red candle reflected the redness in the house.
Helian Wei Wei’s black hair was down to her waist as she sat in the centre of the room. She looked like a witch that had fallen to earth.
At first, there were servants waiting on her. But later on Helian Wei Wei felt that it was too tiring and sent them away, so there was no one left in the bed chamber.
Anyway, she was used to doing everything herself. It made her feel uncomfortable to have people waiting on her.
After the servants left, Helian Wei Wei took down the wedding veil and put it down on the dresser chair and began to look around the bed chamber. The aesthetics were in line with the Third Prince’s tastes, it was low-key but luxurious. A white marble pool, the marble-clear ground, and night pearls dotted around.
The servants were fewer, but their appearance and clothes were clean, they looked even richer than the wealthy children outside of the palace.
On the round table of carved sandalwood, two dragon and phoenix red oil lamps were burning. There was an aroma coming out from it. It was faint but it’s scent was very nice…
