Chapter 610: Deepened Affection

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Everyone knew that the word ‘seductive’ was the Empress’ taboo. That woman from the Murong family received endless affection from the Emperor all thanks to her seductive appearance.

The statement from Yun Biluo was obviously made to drive Helian Wei Wei into a dead end…

As expected, once the Empress heard Yun Biluo statements, she smashed the rouge in her hand bit by bit. That gorgeous face of hers dimmed.

Then, as if she had thought of something, she laughed, “The Eldest Prince lost one of his eunuchs, he ought to be furious, even if it was not Jue Er’s fault. Send him a palace maid so the Eldest Prince can be at ease. A sweet delight will erase all the grudges.” The main purpose was to prevent the palace maid from getting close to the Emperor. A slut like that should be taken away so everyone would have a peace of mind!

Yun Biluo understood what the Empress meant upon hearing the idea. She was elated but hesitant. “What if His Highness doesn’t allow this? Once he has made up his mind, no one will be able to persuade him otherwise.”

“Fret not. Find a chance to let the Eldest Prince check her out.” The Empress blew her fingers. “If he’s satisfied, and stop to make a fuss in front of the Emperor. I will have my own ways to make Jue Er agree to this. She is just a lowly palace maid after all.”

“Alright.” Yun Biluo once again felt excited. She applied pressure onto her left leg that was injured by frost in the previous incident. As long as the Empress got involved in this matter, that woman would have no choice but to get lost!

The sky was getting dark. The next day, at the Imperial Palace School Grounds.

Every year on this day, the palace would be bustling with excitement as the aristocrats would gather around for the upcoming hunt.

Baili Jia Jue recovered just in time, thus he would be joining the hunt as well.

However, as usual, not many people accompanied him in this kind of event.

His identity was fairly noble but he was in a rather awkward position.

The aristocrats had their own plans. Evidently, they would not get near him.

Baili Jia Jue stood indifferently but elegantly at an uncrowded corner. He was pulled to the side by Helian Wei Wei who taught him some basic kungfu.

His strokes were pretty decent but his punches were soft. It did not even hurt a bit.

Helian Wei Wei laughed. She bowed down and wiped the sweat off him, then fed him a pastry.

Baili Jia Jue did not like sweet-tasting food. The pastries he normally ate were all rather bland.

Still, it was impossible for the Imperial Kitchen to put in the effort to prepare delicacies as such for an unfavored prince.

Hence, Baili Jia Jue did not eat a lot of the pastries.

In addition, no one would make them for him as well.

It was the first time he felt valued, with pastries and fruits to eat…

“T-Third Prince…”

The boy was busy eating the pastry fed by Helian Wei Wei. A girl who was donned in a woolen robe walked toward him. She was afraid to even look him in the eyes as she shakingly handed a wooden box over. “T-This is something my mother told me to give it to you.”

Baili Jia Jue stretched his hands and took the box.

The little girl seemed relieved. She turned back, ran toward another boy and stuck her tongue out, “My heart almost jumped out of my chest.”

“Is it that terrifying?” The boy chuckled. He nodded at Baili Jia Jue from afar, signifying a salutation.

Helian Wei Wei saw the kids leaving. She looked back and smiled at Baili Jia Jue. “Hey, do you have a thing for that girl? You take the stuff she hands over to you every single time.”

“It’s egg yolk pastry,” replied the boy calmly.

Helian Wei Wei widened her eyes. “So what?” It was just some egg yolk pastry. If she knew how to do it, she would be able to make it for him too!

“Nothing much.” The boy did not show any expression. “Just that you like them.”

Helian Wei Wei was stunned at that moment. How did she not realize that the wife courting’s prattle she heard back then was incomparable to this? Oh, come on, how useless!

As the thought occupied her mind, Helian Wei Wei opened the wooden box and stuffed one egg yolk pastry into her mouth. She ate it happily.

The boy stared at her closely. All this while, he detested to eat while sitting on the ground; it was indecent yet dirty.

Seeing her satisfaction, he was not disgusted by it at all. He stood in front of Helian Wei Wei and took his handkerchief to wipe the corner of her lips. Steadily, he said, “Eat slowly next time, don’t spill your food everywhere. You’re an adult yet I still have to teach you..”

“Aye, ain’t this our fearless Third Prince?” A sarcastic voice suddenly interrupted.

Helian Wei Wei turned around and looked. She saw three to four sons from the aristocratic families walking toward them from afar. The one who interrupted them was the one who was walking ahead of the rest.

Master Li, son of General Li who grasped great powers, also the Eldest Prince’s cousin of the consort kin.

Appearance-wise, he looked younger than Baili Jia Jue by two or three years. However, he looked evil and the words he uttered were outrageously disgusting and rude. “Third Prince, we’ve come to you tonight, not for any other business. If you swallow these two earthworms, we’ll leave that Xiao Zuozi incident behind. If you don’t, I’ll tell my father that you have bullied me. You know my father has an army, even the Emperor has to respect him. Say, will you, the unfavoured prince, be punished then?”

Baili Jia Jue did not make a move. He just held Helian Wei Wei’s hand even tighter. His glare, covered by his fringe, was filled with a terrifying sense of gloom.

Master Li signaled his followers and sneered at him. “Beat him up. He won’t dare to fight back. If he dares to return the favor, I’ll scream for help to draw everyone’s attention! Tell them he is the one who bullies me!”

He had seen shameless people, but never witnessed an extremely shameless person like Master Li.

Helian Wei Wei clutched both of her hands but she could see the situation with great clarity. A child who was extremely evil would not be able to solely come up with such a detailed and thorough plan. He must be backed up by someone.

If it was for the purpose of revenge, it would not be as simple as just beating His Highness up.

If they intended to let His Highness suffer any losses, the Emperor must be here to witness it… that being said, the Emperor was most likely nearby.

For this reason, she could not do anything. If she did, the opponent would change their plans accordingly. At that point in time, His Highness would still be the one who had to suffer the consequences.

One was the son of a powerful general; one was a prince that the Emperor did not favor long ago.

Based on her understanding of the Emperor, to weigh up the situation, he would definitely prevail justice at the cost of his blood relations, which would bring harm to his own son.

There was not much time to consider any further. Two of the masters were approaching. They lifted and swung their right legs. Looking at the strength of their swings, it was evident that they had learned martial arts before.

Helian Wei Wei did not hesitate to shield His Highness with her body. She suffered three powerful kicks from the back. A metallic taste then exploded in her throat. Nevertheless, she did not let go of His Highness and continued to endure tremendous pain from the kicks. She swore under her breath. D*mn, it hurts!

When Baili Jia Jue witnessed this scene, his fingers caressed her pale face and his eyes shimmered with tears. He could not stop the tears from rolling down his cheeks!
