"So, what do we do now, are you just running away?" Yuan Ming's voice fell.
It turned out that the chanting sound was getting even louder. This sound would undoubtedly affect his master.
Sure enough, when he looked up, beads of sweat drenched on Helian Wei Wei's forehead, but her eyes were bright.
"It's an opportunity, too." Helian Wei Wei laughingly said, "As long as they don't play a wicked trick today, they won't send people to Profound Heaven in the future. I don't have to worry that one day my identity will be discovered."
Just like Yuan Ming said, walking away was the key. She was tired and sleepy. She did not expect that those vague chanting voices could really make people feel pain. There was a sensation that her soul was about to break away from the body and made her tilt forward slightly...
Chapter 260 - The Domineering Third Prince
As if sensing her discomfort, the chants grew louder.
Triumph was written clearly on Su Yan Mo's face.
Helian Wei Wei gripped the sedan-chair beams tightly, she had a splitting headache. Outside the sedan chair, she heard the sound of somebody exhaled a breath. Her eyes narrowed, but she did not respond to what had happened. The curtain of the sedan-chair was suddenly lifted by someone, and her body was hugged by that person!
The smell of sandalwood bit the tip of her nose, its trace filled her spleen and lungs.
Helian Wei Wei didn't need to guess, she immediately knew who the person was.
It's just that the Third Prince's action was really unexpected.
Didn't he dislike being touched?
Also...
Was this...conforming with the rules?
Helian Wei Wei listened to the exclamations around her, and she knew that this was not proper. His Highness might have offended the whole society.
"Hold tight." He commanded. His whispery voice echoed in her ears, the breath somewhat tickled and made her feel numb.
Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows, she made no movement. Separated by the bridal veil, she could hear he called in an indifferent tone, "Qilin."
In a flash.
Helian Wei Wei sensed a gust of wind blew past.
Even though she could not see what happened in front of her, she could imagine it.
The red-haired Fire Qilin appeared in front of all the people, its huge claws pushed the ground. The shocked Buddhist monks who were reading the sutras vomited blood one by one.
Although Qilin is a mythological beast, it came from the demon world.
It was said in those days that if it wasn't that man, no one could make the Fire Qilin willing to be made a mounted beast.
The blood flowing inside the Fire Qilin's body ran counter to the spells recited by the Buddhist monks.
It suddenly appeared.
Those monks had spent not a mere eight or ten years in their practice!
His Majesty.
It towered majestically, its claws stretched at the feet of Baili Jia Jue as if to say, "Master."
The four families' elders sat behind the monks, their hands pressed the wooden chair with a strength that could almost crush the whole chair to powder.
They expended their efforts but did not obtain the Fire Qilin. Unexpectedly, it started to obey the orders of the royal family again?
When did this happen?
Why didn't the spies they planted in the palace have any reports?
Those elders felt an unprecedented sense of crisis that made them watch with rapt attention. Their hearts burned like a raging inferno, but they could not afford to show it.
Baili Jia Jue's long hair came down with the cape. The precious burgundy wedding robe swept by, the tall jade-like figure standing on the back, half fierce red, half pitch black, the rich colour difference gave people an unspeakable shock.
He held Helian Wei Wei in his arms. His posture was graceful, his eyes were indifferent, and he exuded a strong sense of an ascetic. Under the gem mask, his lips were slightly curved with a sinister expression of a smile that was not a smile.
Helian Wei Wei could not see anything since her sights were blocked by the veil. She was deep in the dark fog. The only thing she could feel was his cool fingers around her knees, holding her legs. Then she said to the Fire Qilin, "Lead the way."
Hearing the command, Fire Qilin pushed his claws. His beautiful hair lifted slightly, and when the red feathers soared, countless flames burst into huge sparks.
Big birds flew in every direction and shuttled back and forth inside the sparks. The birds chirped. This was the start of a truly big wedding!
In ninety-nine, eighty miles, the smoke and fire grew bigger. The whole sky was magnificent.
The Fire Qilin was ahead, opening the way by doing whatever it pleased.
Baili Jia Jue stepped out of the fire. His long hair dancing in the dark, his footsteps crisp, the sound of the ground being crushed.
He held Helian Wei Wei continuously. He was absolutely gallant and willful, and very dominant in his pampering of her!
Such an original and never seen before wedding made everyone who comes to watch the ceremony stared with eyes open wide.
This was such a lavish scene that never existed before, even for hundreds of years in the past or in the future.
Everyone wanted to be the woman in his arms!
But what they didn't know was that no one could maintain that frightening indolence in such a circ.u.mstance except Helian Wei Wei.
It felt good to hold her like this.
Helian Wei Wei nested in Baili Jia Jue's arms. She recklessly yawned and took on the cool and ascetic aura. They perfectly complemented each other.
Baili Jia Jue did not feel anything. His eyes raised, "Didn't sleep well yesterday?"
"Mm," Helian Wei Wei grunted. Staying in this position made her eyes felt heavy again.
Baili Jia Jue's voice was faint, "Did you go on a date again while I was away?"
Helian Wei Wei's fingers were stiff and she got completely awake. Why did the Third Prince talk about her weak points like this? He talked as if she really did something worth apologizing to him.
"By the way, why did you call out the Fire Qilin?" Helian Wei Wei thought and made a noise. Behind the veil, her voice was deep, "Is it really okay if people know that you have your martial qi restored?"
Baili Jia Jue did not care at all, "There's nothing good or bad about it."
Helian Wei Wei listened to his tone and immediately realized that the other party did not attach any importance to those old men at all. It is estimated that only this Royal Highnesses who could drag them to such a point in the entire Dragon War Empire.
The appearance of Fire Qilin suppressed those Buddhist sutras from continuing.
Was it a coincidence?
Helian Wei Wei looked up. She wanted to see Baili Jia Jue's expression but found that she could see nothing but the bridal veil.
"What are you doing?" Baili Jia Jue stretched out his hand and prevented her from lifting the veil.
Helian Wei Wei winked. "I see what they are sighing about. You can be at ease that when I was in the sedan chair, I washed my face with tomatoes. Now my face is thoroughly fair and clean."
Then he would not permit her to lift the veil even more. Baili Jia Jue eyes darkened. She's his prey. He should be the first one to see her most beautiful appearance.
"Only when the bride enters the bridal chamber can she lift the bridal veil." Baili Jia Jue was unyielding. His tone was chilly and noble. "Do you want to break the rules?"
Helian Wei Wei's fingers paused, no longer moved to lift the veil.
But the Fire Qilin who had walked ahead almost lost his footing.
What's breaking the rules, the master was too capable to pretend.
From its point of view, it's His Majesty's d.e.s.i.r.e to monopolize her that caused this mischief!
Baili Jia Jue lifted his eyes and cast a glance at his mythological beast walking at the front. Even though there were no frightening waves inside
those eyes, the Fire Qilin still tensed. It resumed a dignified posture and continued to pace forward. So dazzling that people were not able to shift their eyes.
Helian Jiao Er looked on helplessly. This scene made her jealous to the point of madness. Her calculations never moved this man who was like a god in her eyes. It was surprising that he had done such an unreasonable act in front of all civil and military officials.
Helian Jiao Er gripped both her hands.
Why? For what reason did this bitch get another look from the Third Prince?
All this should have belonged to her.
Whether it was the Third Prince's beloved or this ten miles long of red dress.
If it wasn't for Helian Wei Wei disrupting things, she would have been with His Royal Highness, the bitch!
"Jiao Er!"
Chapter 261 - Wedding Night
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.
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."
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."
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.
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...
Chapter 262 - The Lamb In The Tiger’s Mouth
There were also a few plates of peanuts and c.h.e.s.tnuts, it was very auspicious. Of course there was also the moonlight wine glass.
Helian Wei Wei stood up to pour herself a glass of wine. She then cracked open a peanut and put it in her mouth.
As she continued chewing, she took off the phoenix crown on her head letting loose her long black hair against her wedding dress and walked barefoot into the bath chamber, her feet beaut
iful and her toenails were rounded and transparent.
She reached into the bath to test the hot water and found that the temperature was just right so she didn't have to ask the servant to come in. She applied the balm directly on her hair and washed it clean. After she used the incense fire to dry her hair she walked back out.
Her body leaned against the sandalwood carved chaise longue with her black, silky black hair hanging on her arm.
She didn't think that the Third Prince would come tonight, so she looked through a scroll to pass time, yawning from time to time, feeling more and more tired.
She wore a cloud-shaped skirt with a rose gilt and a red cotton gauze between the arms. She was not wearing the c.u.mbersome outer shirt. As she sniffed the smell of the incense, she felt like sleeping.
It was okay at first, after all, the palace was very quiet, and it was easy to fall asleep.
Later on, she wasn't sure if it was the black fur beneath her. But unfamiliar tremors rose from the back of her spine, and her fair skin oozed a thin layer of sweat. The blood in her blood vessels flowed quickly, and her hands and feet felt weak.
What was going on?
Just as Helian Wei Wei frowned, she heard some noises coming from outside.
"Your Highness." Bai Mei was outside the hall, not expecting His Highness to return so early, she kneeled on the ground.
Baili Jia Jue reached out both hands to loosen his collar of his red robe,and said in a languid manner: "You can all retreat."
Bai Mei looked up at Shadow. Shadow nodded at her. The two of them respectfully replied: "Yes."
Helian Wei Wei had wanted to get up, but she could not find the strength. She kept her lazy posture and raised her eyebrows as she watched Baili Jia Jue walk in.
She did not realise how tempting she looked at this time, her eyebrows were beautiful, cheeks red, and apricot shaped eyes fluid.
Baili Jia Jue's eyebrows raised up as he walked over to her slowly.
