Chapter 144
Chapter 144 – A Prodigy
Mo Xie saw Helian Yi closing his eyes and dozing off, he extended his hand and waved it in front of his eyes. Suddenly, Helian Yi abruptly opened his eyes, tightly grabbing her hand, and asked in a low voice:
“What does your beloved concubine want to do?”
Mo Lang laughed, “Royal uncle, I just want to see if you are asleep or not. “You see, we are almost there. How about tonight …”
She wanted to have a good night’s sleep. She had been tormented by Helian Yi for too long yesterday. Her entire body was aching unbearably. This man was like a hungry leopard that had starved for centuries. If she were to be tormented by him like this every day, how could she endure it?
So before she returned to the house, she felt the need to have a prophylactic session with this proud man.
Helian Yi looked at her pitiful little eyes and knew what she was thinking.
Hugging her in his arms, he said to her in an extremely gentle voice:
“It’s getting late. Return to your residence and rest early. This King still has some matters to take care of.”
Hearing Helian Yi’s words, Mo Xie’s eyes lit up. So he had something to do tonight. Hehehe, does that mean she can sleep in peace?
He was thinking about how he should jump on the bed and get a good night’s sleep after returning. He completely ignored the man beside him and looked at him with a meaningful gaze.
In the Grand Preceptor’s estate, Helian Yu was carried down from the carriage by Fu Yifan and returned to his own sleeping quarters.
Panting for breath, she said to the servant girl:
“Xing’er, go to the other courtyard and call my father and mother over.”
Xing’er froze for a second, then ran outside.
After Helian Yu got off the carriage, his entire person became much calmer.
He tried to open his acupoints along the way, but to no avail. Since he was already at the Grand Preceptor’s estate, he’d already been given to him by Fu Yifan … No, no, no. He had eaten all of Fu Yifan’s food! Right! It was him!
With this thought in mind, he gradually accepted it in his heart …
What happened just now. Just thinking of Fu Yifan’s evil figure and the lump of flesh on her body made Helian Yi’s stomach churn uncontrollably.
Staring coldly at Fu Yifan, Helian Yu said in a slightly hoarse voice,
“Do you think that you can threaten This King just because of this? “Don’t even think about it!”
Fu Yifan laughed and pounced towards Helian Yu. Helian Yu wanted to dodge, but in the end, because he was bound and unable to move, he was pounced on by Fu Yifan instead.
Fu Yifan smiled while leaning beside his ear.
“Prince, don’t just look at Fang Fang Fang’s fat body, Fang Fang became like this because she was poisoned when she was young.” “In the future when Fang Fang dissolves the poison, I will naturally lose weight.”
He definitely wouldn’t be able to escape today. Grand Preceptor Fu’s influence in the imperial court couldn’t be underestimated. Although he didn’t mind offending him, multiple allies were still better than multiple enemies! The empress hadn’t made any progress recently, and he still hadn’t found out who the empress belonged to.
Thinking of this, Helian Yu asked,
“Are you serious?”
“Of course it’s true. “As long as you’re willing to marry me, father will definitely be very happy. If father is happy, maybe in the future, he’ll hand over all the Grand Preceptor’s stores to you to manage …”
Seeing that Fu Yifan was talking about something that could not be stopped, Helian Yu hurriedly stopped her and said,
“Stop!”
Fu Yifan asked curiously, “Huh?” Prince, what’s wrong? “Don’t you like hearing Fang Fang talk?”
“No, don’t argue! Let This King be quiet. ”
Fu Yifan could only sit quietly beside Helian Yu, not making a sound.
Soon, Xing’er appeared in front of Fu Yifan.
She stared at the two people behind Xing’er and her eyes lit up. They were her parents!
Behind Xing’er, there was a middle-aged man wearing luxurious silk clothing. Because of his well-developed physique, his clothes had been stretched to the point where his figure disappeared. His eyebrows were white, but his eyes were dark and deep.
Beside the man, there was a person who appeared to be thirty-eight years old.
A woman with a big smile on her face was walking towards Shi Yan with light steps.
Xing’er was the first to arrive at Fu Yifang’s bedroom. She blessed herself and said respectfully to Fu Yifan,
“Miss, the Master and Madam are here.”
Fu Yifan motioned for Xing’er to step down before he grabbed Helian Yu’s arm. With a mischievous smile on his face, he rushed over and acted like a spoiled child.
“Father, mother.”
When Grand Tutor Fu saw the person next to Fu Yifan, he was stunned for a moment.
Although he’d heard from Xing’er that King Xiang was interested in his precious daughter, how could Grand Tutor Fu dare to believe him? If he was interested in his daughter, then he probably had no other intentions apart from that!
At first, he had been rather happy, but when he saw Helian Yu, his expression immediately turned grave. By his side, Imperial Tutor Fu’s wife, Cyan Sheng, looked at Helian Yu with a smile. It was clear that she admired the man her daughter had taken a fancy to.
He walked up to Fu Yifan, but before he could say a word, the Cymbidium had already taken the first one.
“This humble woman greets the Xiang King. I don’t know if he has come to welcome her with open arms. I hope he will not take offense.”
Helian Yu cleared his throat. Just as he was about to speak, Fu Yifan interrupted him and said with a smile:
“Mother, why would the prince find it strange?” With that, he glanced at Helian Yu and asked, “Right, Royal Highness?”
Helian Yu was startled for a moment before he nodded. “Yes, yes. “Hehe.”
Helian Yu forced himself to smile stiffly at Grand Preceptor Fu, suppressing the anger and discomfort he felt throughout his entire body.
Seeing the strange atmosphere, Fu Yifan hastily pulled Helian Yu along as he spoke to Grand Preceptor Fu.
“Daddy, daughter and Duke Xiang fell in love at first sight at the naked eye pavilion, and they have already decided to marry each other …”
Before he could finish, Grand Preceptor Fu reprimanded him coldly, “What nonsense!”
Fu Yifan pouted, his aggrieved expression causing an ache in his heart. She sent a cold glance towards Grand Tutor Fu to comfort her daughter.
“Darling, don’t be sad. Tell mom what happened?”
As he spoke, he led Fu Yifan into the palace, leaving Grand Tutor Fu and Helian Yu standing by the door.
The two of them looked at each other and sighed softly. Grand Tutor Fu then invited Helian Yu to his study.
Sitting in the study room, Grand Tutor Fu directly asked Helian Yu,
“Why would Prince Xiang set his sights on this old man’s daughter?”
Did Helian Yu want to say that he was strong? If he spoke of this, not only would he make Grand Tutor Fu look down on him, but he’d also make him feel resentful towards him.
After staring blankly for a while, he smiled and replied,
“Just like what Fang Fang said, This King and Fang Fang fell in love at first sight, and love each other.”
“Humph!” Does King Xiang think this old man will believe what you said? ”
“Whether or not you believe is up to you, Grand Preceptor!” This prince was able to accompany Fang Fang to the Grand Preceptor’s estate today because I’m determined to be responsible for Fang Fang. ”
Upon hearing Helian Yu’s words, Grand Tutor Fu turned his head to look at him coldly. Suddenly, he thought of something. His eyes were filled with anger, but he endured it. His fingers trembled as he pointed at Helian Yu and asked,
“You mean! You and Fang Fang, she. “You!”
“Now that things have come to this, this King and Fang Fang could not help but …” “Grand Preceptor Fu, this prince will take responsibility for Fang Fang.”
