“Ah?” The palace maids raised their heads in perplexity and whispered, “But it was just recently made by His Highness. It was made of the finest sandalwood and worth quite a bit of silver.”
Helian Wei Wei slowly squinted. “Was it?”
“En.” The maid thought she had said something wrong and her neck shrank back.
Helian Wei Wei laughed. “Then clean it up and sell it outside the palace.”
What?!
The palace maids were all taken aback, and for a moment almost wondered that something was wrong with their ears.
Helian Wei Wei paused, raised her eyes again, looked at the two palace maids, and smiled as usual: “That’s right. There’s also that bed behind the protective screen. Try to sell it too. It’s made from gold and should worth a lot of money.”
What the hell are you thinking, Princess!
That’s the treasure His Highness must see every day!
If you sell it, you’ll be killed.
The palace maids dare neither to promise nor want to offend the princess who looked very annoyed. They just bowed their heads and said, “Here, these..these servants will ask Eunuch Sun for instructions.”
“All right, go and ask for instructions.” As long as it didn’t touch her bottom line, Helian Wei Wei was very understanding.
Those palace maids immediately felt touched. Until they heard Helian Wei Wei’s words that accompanied her smile, “If I don’t get the instruction, I would tear it down with my own hands.”
The palace maids: …
Then they had better go to ask for instructions!!!!
On the first day of the big wedding, there was an air of “foul wind and rain of blood” inside the royal bedroom. It was unknown what kind of news were spread outside.
For example, His Highness and the princess’ horoscopes did not match.
Eunuch Sun listened to the news that these women were bringing him. After thinking for a while, he took the robe and cape with both hands and presented them to his master.
“Your Highness, the princess is going to sell the bathtub in the washroom. You see…” As he said this, his voice was full of caution as he looked at Baili Jia Jue who was putting on his robe.
“The bathtub?” Baili Jia Jue lifted his beautiful eyebrows, and then as if thinking of something, the corners of his lips drew a vicious arc. “She is so shy.”
Eunuch Sun was silent. He had lived for nearly sixty years. He had never seen anyone who was so shy that they would sell bathtubs.
What’s more…
“The Princess also wants to sell off the golden bed behind you?” After that, Grandpa Sun lifted his eyes again. He couldn’t help glancing at his master many times. He was afraid that His Highness would just sneer and said, “Let her try selling it!”
Then, he would be in a terrible situation…Sure enough, Baili Jia Jue stopped straightening out his collars. Eunuch Sun felt numbness on his scalp.
“Let her sell,” Baili Jia Jue said in a faint voice.And then what? Nothing?
Eunuch Sun couldn’t tell how many times he was surprised today. Since His Highness loved the bed so much, he should not have let people sell things so easily.
With some misgivings, he then listened to Baili Jia Jue’s unexpected addition: “Afterwards, I will buy it back.”
Eunuch Sun was stunned and bowed his head, “Yes.”
He inwardly thought, “Your Highness, even if we have lots of money, we should not squander them, ah!”
Helian Wei Wei thought that such a large bed, no matter how exquisite, would not be easy to sell. However, not long after she released the news, someone was willing to bid for it.
This made her cold eyes gradually recovered their warmth. Counting the money handed by Eunuch Sun, her eyes started to be filled with laughter. “Eunuch Sun is very reliable in handling things.”
“Prin…Princess is over-praising me.” Eunuch Sun smiled stiffly, thinking that it was all to His Highness’ credit.
Helian Wei Wei curved her lips again, and stuffed one of the silver into his hands in a magnanimous way, “Eunuch Sun, you are the elderly in this palace. In the future, please give me pointers about things that are unclear to me and what other people say.”
“This… This… Princess, this is indeed too overwhelming for this slave!” Eunuch Sun couldn’t imagine that he would be so valued by the princess and pushed the silver money back. But he knew deep inside his heart that their princess was really intelligent. She was different from other women, not arrogant and impatient. Her simple sentence can touch people’s heart and raised Eunuch Sun’s respect.
Helian Wei Wei only had a few words, “This is what Grandpa Sun deserves.”
In the past, Eunuch Sun would have accepted it. But with his master, he really felt that the banknote in his hand was too hot to handle. Although that one was still inside the bedroom tidying up his clothes, his deterrence only increased.
“Oh, by the way,” She took one out from the pile of banknotes and put it in the palm of Eunuch Sun’s hand. “This one is for His Highness. Tell him that I am thankful for his hard work last night.”
Eunuch Sun’s body turned stiff!
The Princess must not have meant what he thought!
Ha ha ha ha, how was this possible? No one dared to treat the master like this!
So…
After seeing that silver banknote, the man’s thin lips curved slowly. With a chilly, demonic air, his finger lifted and fire from unknown origin burned the banknote to a crisp.
Did she want to send him away with just a piece of banknote?
Or, was she provoking him intentionally?
Either way, it seems better than her indifferently trying to escape.
It’s just that…
After what happened last night, shouldn’t women usually feel at ease?
After all, the best way to obtain a woman was by taking her! Why was she different?
This made Baili Jia Jue, who had always liked to act according to his own plans, wrinkled his brows.
She was so shrewd to erase the memory between them.
It could be seen that although she was affected by this incident, she would not give up her heart to him at all. Thinking of this, Baili Jia Jue tidied up his sleeves. His thin lips slightly pursed up with a slight feeling of grievance.
He must have another good chat with the old man in the temple sometime.
In this case, what should he do in order to let her restless claws settle down!
However, compared to him, her means were still a little too tender.
The corners of Baili Jia Jue’s lips were curved again with a hint of the black-bellied asceticism. It was the time for her to know about Sun Wukong, the Monkey King who could never escape from the palm of the Buddha.
At this time, while Helian Wei Wei was looking at the furnishings, her mind recalled the scenes inside the royal bedroom.
It was unlikely that someone came and placed the drugs. In that case, she would have heard something. So, the medicine must have been put in advance.
But… In what form? Helian Wei Wei’s fingers traced the table’s surface and suddenly laughed.
She picked up the stained incense burner there and said to the palace maid beside her, “Go and check. Who is in charge of this?”
“Yes.” The palace maid obeyed the order and withdrew from the room.
Helian Wei Wei was in a good mood. Counting her income today, she felt that she could sell anything that was not pleasing to her eyes later. Especially the bed, she would feel relieved when it was gone.
But who knows…
Helian Wei Wei stared at the familiar and luxurious thing in front of her. Her eyes were narrowed.
