Eunuch Sun was a very intuitive person, and he had guess what the two of them were up to in an instant. He had accepted money from Helian Guang Yao on many occasions, and besides, he was the relative of the princess consort, so he gave him some advice: "Sir, I am not trying to be nosey, but this is your blood relation after all, you can't be too partial. If you're not careful, disaster will befall from heaven."
"Eunuch Sun's words are wise, Eunuch Sun's words are wise." Helian Guang Yao held a smile, but his within his heart was already billowing in waves.
After Eunuch Sun had left.
Helian Guang Yao sat down heavily onto the wooden chair. Su Yan Mo shoved the servant girl out of the way viciously: "Master, our Jiao Er cannot marry into the the Huai family."
"Just because you say no means no? It is the imperial edict of the Emperor!" Helian Guang Yao roared, then sighed deeply: "Forget it. With the way things are now, we can only bring her home."
Crash!
The teacup in Helian Guang Yao's hand fell to the ground.
"Have you finished with your nonsense! Do you think that I want to bring her home?" Helian Guang Yao's face was gloomier than usual: "Once she comes back, it is likely that those people who tend to follow wind will change. Don't you forget, the hidden army the old man left behind years ago is still here. Before his death, he ordered those people to appear again to help Helian Wei Wei fight for her status in the household if she were to stay in the household till she was sixteen years old! But what else can I do now? Not allow her to return home? She is now the champion of the martial qi competition and has married into the royal family. Not to mention the elders, even the officials of the court will make use of this matter and bury me! My control of the military power will thoroughly disappear!" After he had spoken, Helian Guang Yao calmed down: "You go to speak to the Prime Minister, and ask him about Jiao Er's marriage. See if he is able to put in a few good words. All this time that you have watched that girl, when did she get martial qi?"
Su Yan Mo shook her head and felt her body go weak. She had never expected that under her watchful eyes, that little cockroach would have a trick up her sleeve!
Logically, all her martial qi should have been severed, how could it be preserved till this day! Moreover, the elders had sent people to inform her that they had dealt with her..... How did she survive, and appear at the martial qi competition! No matter what, the girl just would not die! It was not like the Helian Wei Wei that she had known back then!
"Master, I think that there is something amiss with the slut." Su Yan Mo played with the buddha bead in her hands: "She didn't use to be like this. She has completely changed since the day she fell into the water. Do you think something happened that day that we do not know about?"
"It is really strange." Helian Guang Yao did not understand how that damaged daughter of his had become so powerful all of a sudden.
Su Yan Mo eyes narrowed, a look of evil scattered across: "She doesn't look like a fake. It's more so her personality has changed. When I was young, I heard people talk about the possession by fox fairies..."
"Fox fairy possession, you mean she is likely taken over by evil spirits?" Helian Guang Yao raised his eyebrows, his eyes glimmered.
"Yes." Su Yan Mo looked down, her evil intentions oozed out: "If that is the case, then she not only cannot return to the Defence Division household, but she will be thrown into jail. In the Dragon War Empire, in the trial of the sacrificed family, no one would allow a person who has been possessed to marry into the royal family and become princess consort! As long as we spread the news of this matter at the right time, you don't have to worry about the hidden army!"
Helian Guang Yao straightened his back: "You mean to say on her wedding day….."
"She has caused our Jiao Er to be in such a pitiful state and she wants to marry happily into the royal family? Hmph, dream on! Jiao Er has been in love with the Third Prince since she was young, if there were to be a wedding, it should be Jiao Er who is the bride! That slut does not know what's good for her, she can't blame me for being ruthless!"
Keching!
Helian Wei Wei had finished making the last of the armamats and displayed them on the table. This can be the betrothal gift for the Third Prince.
She stood up and stretched, and yawned as she walked out. She looked at the white and black death knights and said: "You go back to the palace and tell the Third Prince that I have a matter to discuss."
Bai Mei was going to nod her head.
The identical Hei Zhu smiled coldly and said: "Miss should concentrate on preparing the betrothal gift. There will be matters that need seeing to and he won't be able to find time to come. Whatever it is, just tell His Highness when you see him."
Upon hearing that, Helian Wei Wei slowly narrowed her eyes and looked at her with her arms across her chest. She did not speak, and only smiled.
At seeing this, Bai Mei reached out and patted Hei Zhu, to get her to pay attention. Hei Zhu took no notice and tilted her chin upwards.
Bai Mei stepped forward: "It is true that His Highness is busier at the moment. After the Retired Emperor was poisoned, His Highness has been looking into this matter. However, if Princess Consort wishes to see High Highness, no doubt he will come over. I will go to inform His Highness now."
Helian Wei Wei looked at her but still did not speak.
Hei Zhu squirmed: "Bai Mei, our mission is to protect Miss, not be at her beck and call. We are His Highness' servants, if we do things that do not conform to our identities, we will be causing problems for His Highness."
Bai Mei thought that these words were too harsh.
Helian Wei Wei spoke, her voice faint and sorrowful: "I am unable to order His Highness' servants about. Why don't you make the trip personally?"
Eunuch Sun touched his white hair.
He had spent the last few days getting to know the Princess Consort. He knew better than anyone else that although she did not look great, she was indeed elegant and intelligent. She was always polite to people who did not provoke her. But if one were to provoke her…...
Eunuch Sun thought about the ending for those people before and inexplicably shuddered. His white eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Hei Zhu. He assessed the situation and couldn't help but found it funny.
Afraid?
The Princess Consort was not even afraid of His Highness, why would she be afraid of a death knight?
Calculating the conspiracy, she was not able to order the servants to do her bidding, so she asked him to make a trip instead. It was not that she had a gentle temperament. She could not be bothered to fight with a maid. Of course His Highness would know exactly what the Princess Consort meant.. She was obviously making a statement to him that the servants he sent to her do not do her bidding, so he better send them back where they came from!
