Chapter 206 – Helian Yi’s gentleness
Hearing Helian Yi’s words, the corners of Xiao Zhai’s mouth curled up into a beautiful smile, and he sent those old things out to look for the people, in a day, they would probably kneel in front of him and reestablish the throne!
Thinking that this plan would work, Xiao Zhai turned to the guard and said: “Send my order to all of the officials in Shaoyang Palace to set off immediately and look for the Emperor.”
The guard looked up and was stunned for a moment before hurriedly replying, “Yes, Your Highness.”
After the guard left, Xiao Zhai glanced at Helian Yi. If not for the man beside him giving advice, he would not have been so successful. Glancing at the nearby Mo Youyou, Xiao Zhai asked curiously.
“Brother Jing, when are you planning to return?”
Helian Yi looked down slightly, his gaze landed on Mo Youyou, and replied him: “If she doesn’t want to go back, then I will accompany her. What? Is Brother Xiao thinking of destroying the bridge after crossing the river? ”
Xiao Zhai knew that Helian Yi was joking with him, and he was not angry, he laughed, “I do want to destroy the bridge after crossing the river, but Brother Jing has to agree. Sigh! I wonder what kind of expression that royal brother of mine will have when he finds out about this. Regarding this, I really can’t wait to take a look. ”
Hearing Xiao Zhai’s words, Helian Yi gave him a cold stare, and very quickly, his gaze landed on the familiar figure in the distance. The one who rushed over was Xiao Ruojun.
Helian Yi sneered in his heart, and said to Xiao Zhai: “They’re here!”
Xiao Zhai did not understand, but following Helian Yi’s line of sight, he looked over, and upon seeing that the person who came was Xiao Ruojun, he immediately stopped his unbridled attitude, and stood by Helian Yi’s side with a serious face, and watched as Xiao Ruojun walked over with a gloomy face.
Mo Youyou, who had walked to the side of the fake mountain, naturally saw Xiao Ruojun as well. She just cast him a sidelong glance and did not intend to step forward to greet him.
Xiao Ruojun quickly walked in front of Xiao Zhai and asked anxiously: “Big Brother, where is royal father?”
Xiao Zhai replied coldly: “They have already sent people to look for him.”
“Imperial Brother went to Shaoyang Palace, then Imperial Father went missing. Should Imperial Brother not explain?”
Xiao Zhai looked at Xiao Ruojun coldly. How dare he come here to question him! Since he had come, then let him give up on that thought! Want to be an emperor? Wishful thinking!
“Oh? Then, from royal brother’s point of view, you seem to suspect that I have hidden royal father? ”
After Xiao Ruojun heard these words, he snorted coldly, since he dared to come here, then he had already prepared to fight to the death. It was not that he did not think of Lily losing, it was just that he did not think that he would lose so miserably.
and coldly answered: “Xiao Zhai, you had best hand over your royal father! Otherwise, I would let all of the citizens of the Tong Li Kingdom know that a dignified Crown Prince like you wanted to kill your father and usurp the throne! ”
“I killed his father to usurp his position? Xiao Ruojun, are you sick? I is the Crown Prince’s Highness to begin with. Even if Royal Father is still missing, in the future, the throne will still belong to me. On the other hand, you, as a lowly son of a servant, it is normal for you to covet my royal father’s Dragon Throne. What, it can’t be that you have hidden your royal father so that he can use him to threaten me, right? ”
Xiao Ruojun was almost angered by Xiao Zhai’s words. He glared at Xiao Zhai with his eyes full of anger, and almost roared, “Xiao Zhai! Nonsense! It was you who hid your royal father! It’s you! ”
Xiao Zhai walked closer to Xiao Ruojun calmly and whispered in his ear: “You’re saying this? Who would believe that? Even if it is me, what can you do to me? Xiao Ruojun, stop your hostility. If I am happy, I might let you go. ”
Xiao Ruojun clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and replied: “Even if I dies, I will not lower my head to you. Xiao Zhai, you will receive your retribution! ”
“I am waiting for that day. However, you should still take care of yourself first! ” After he had finished, he suddenly thought of something and said:
“Since royal brother is so concerned about royal father, I shall hand over the matter of filial piety to you. You should also go with those old officials to find royal father!”
Hearing Xiao Zhai’s words, Xiao Ruojun was stunned for a moment, then angrily left the Imperial Garden with a flick of his sleeve.
Helian Yi stared at Xiao Ruojun’s back figure with his deep eyes, and then spoke with a low voice.
“What are you going to do with him? Xiao Ruojun is not an easy target! ”
Xiao Zhai sighed. Back then, when he assassinated Xiao Lin, he did not hesitate to regret it.
To Xiao Zhai, only the dead could not block his way!
Coming back to his senses, he said to Helian Yi:
“Thank you for the reminder, Brother Jing. I will take care of this properly!”
The two stood side by side, looking at each other in tacit understanding.
Behind the fake mountain, Mo Youyou was sitting next to the lotus pond. Her intelligent eyes stared at the fish swimming around happily in the lotus pond, and she slightly frowned.
She had always been thinking about who the woman hiding in Yue Er’s room was, and was also sad that Yue Er had lied to her.
After arriving in this world, the first thing he saw was Yue Er crying sorrowfully. He didn’t mind that she was covered in filth, so he supported her and walked with her until now.
Although Yue Er had coveted Helian Yi before, she had also gradually forgiven him later on. Who asked her to have such an outstanding man called Mo Youyou?
Only, she did not expect that she would treat him so sincerely, and still not warm Yue Er’s heart.
Being humiliated in the Ancestral Hall made her feel worse than anyone else, but what had happened had already happened. She could only mention it as little as possible to avoid rubbing salt on Yue Er’s wounds.
But these two days, Yue Er was inexplicably distant from her. Thinking about all these, Mo Youyou’s brows furrowed tightly and she felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart. She truly treated Yue Er as her own kin.
Other than Helian Yi, she was even willing to share everything he had with him.
He slowly stood up and fixed his gaze on the lake’s surface. A gust of wind blew past, and Mo Youyou could even feel that slight chill.
His arms were wrapped around each other, and suddenly, he felt a warm sensation on his back. She turned her head to look at the tall man that appeared behind her. Seeing him looking at her worriedly, Mo Youyou pursed his lips and smiled.
“Wing, I’m fine.”
Helian Yi covered Mo Youyou with his outer garment and without saying a word, he suddenly carried her in the air and walked in big strides towards Xiao Zhai.
“If there’s anything you need, just send someone from the Yellow Crane Tower over to pass on a message. In the next few days, I will be staying there temporarily, so Brother Xiao does not need to worry. ”
Xiao Zhai originally wanted to invite Helian Yi and Mo Youyou to his Crown Prince Palace, but Helian Yi refused before him. Thus, he could only nod in agreement.
After personally seeing Helian Yi and Mo Youyou out of the palace gates, Xiao Zhai withdrew the smile on his face and turned to walk in the direction of Shaoyang Palace.
Everyone was looking for someone outside, how could he not know that his royal father was in his own Shaoyang Palace?
Remembering that his royal father had secretly visited him three years ago, Helian Yi reminded him to take advantage of that period of time to dig a secret room in Shaoyang Palace. So today, he was finally going to be of use. Sometimes, Xiao Zhai really admired this man. He was glad that he did not become enemies with Helian Yi, but had instead become a good confidant.
