Chapter 444: Look, His Highness Was Acting Cute
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Helian Wei Wei could no longer resist the urge and she called out with a trembling voice, “Master...”
The word seemed to have flipped a switch inside Baili Jia Jue as his gaze instantly landed on Helian Wei Wei. Then, he immediately lifted her in his arms, endlessly caressing and tormenting her.
It seemed like he was being considerate about her feelings and was attempting to win her affection. The excitement it brought numbed completely.
After this, both of them laid on the couch, as he ran his fingers through her hair and kissed the corner of her smiling eyes.
I am much smarter than everyone else.
Especially what I said previously, how can I speak so charmingly?
Or am I just a loyal dog?
Who would be willing to call himself a dog?
Id*ot.
Baili Jia Jue pondered to himself as he pinched Helian Wei Wei’s hands, asking “Do you prefer cats or dogs?”
“Hmm? I like both, but I prefer large dogs. Why?” Helian Wei Wei laughed as she lazily opened her eyes.
Baili Jia Jue looked at her and laughed. His mesmerizing thin lips parted slightly with indescribable charm, as he leaned into her ear and uttered with a deep voice, “Woof!”
Helian Wei Wei was dumbfounded as she stared blankly at the man in front of her. What... what in the world did I just hear?
Even though Helian Wei Wei’s usual temperament was calm and rational, she... felt like she was in a dream upon witnessing this.
However, Baili Jia Jue was still smiling as he repeated, “Woof!”
Ah! This man, how can he act so cute?
This is so unfair!
He already has such an attractive face!
Now he is even barking at me!
This is why His Highness is such a teasing little devil! Nobody could beat him!
Helian Wei Wei immediately put her arms around his waist, feeling extremely blissful. “Bark again and you’ll have ribs for dinner!” If I can keep the Third Prince as a pet and bring him out, it would be absolutely amazing! This is what I get for marrying a rich heart-throb; it is simply the pinnacle of human achievement!
“Compared to ribs, I’d rather eat...” Baili Jia Jue’s gazed at her and leaned his thin lips on Helian Wei Wei’s earlobe.
She quivered, suspecting that he did not finish the sentence with the word ‘you’ just to let her mind wander through the possibilities.
However, His Highness looked exceptionally adorable when he barked with his deep baritone voice. It made her heart flutter; she was utterly defenseless...
As though she wore her heart on her sleeve, Baili Jia Jue leaned into her ear and softly whispered another ‘woof’. He dragged out the syllable and she felt as if she was being magnetically sucked in.
Eunuch Sun stood outside and did not dare to peer in. However, he had an important matter to inform the prince, so he hesitantly said from behind the exquisite screen, “Your Highness, the letter has been delivered to the Imperial Clan Court according to your instructions. The Retired Emperor knows about this matter as well.”
Helian Wei Wei prepared to get up as she heard that they were discussing serious matters.
“Rest for a while more, I will take care of it.” Baili Jia Jue took an outer robe and covered her with it. Then, he languidly walked out in his half-dressed state, all tousled and seductive. Eunuch Sun did not dare to raise his head to peek at him.
He was simply a servant and dared not make any comments. He remembered that His Highness definitely had no interest in such matters in the past.
Who would have known that His Highness would begin to place more importance on his private life after the princess consort entered the palace?
Based on the progression of these events, it would not be long before the princess consort would be pregnant with a young master!
Upon thinking this, Eunuch Sun’s heart was filled with joy!
The Retired Emperor had also discussed with him about it recently, wondering what to dress the young master in and what treasures to bestow upon that baby.
They agreed that it would definitely not be the type of tiger skin outfits that the Little Seventh Prince donned.
The young master would be raised meticulously, and receive the best care!
Baili Jia Jue saw Eunuch Sun’s inspired expression and knew that the old man’s mind had wandered in another direction. He said flatly, “What did the Retired Emperor say after he found out about it?”
Eunuch Sun replied, “Someone is already investigating it.”
“This matter...” Baili Jia Jue slowly rotated the ring on his ring finger and said with an icy voice, “Let the Emperor know about this as well. Tell the elders of the four influential families but don’t mention the succession. Emphasize on the Fifth Prince’s alternative ambitions instead. Even if I kill someone, I want them to witness it. Do you understand, Eunuch Sun?”
Eunuch Sun felt a shiver when he heard that cold tone. He knew that his Master had lowered his voice to prevent the princess consort from hearing about this.
He also knew the true meaning of His Highness’ words.
Usually, the Emperor would not be roped into this kind of matter.
After all, that person... pardon me for being disrespectful, spent all his time obsessing about the pill of immortality.
The Emperor would not have the time to care about imperial court affairs.
However, this was also the type of Emperor that would be extremely displeased when any of his princes wanted his throne.
His Highness was the crown prince appointed by the Retired Emperor. Due to his title, the Emperor constantly attempted to hinder His Highness’ future ever since he was still young.
If not for His Highness’ unparalleled martial Qi and his ability to govern the four influential families stringently, he would not have survived to this day.
If the Emperor found out about this, it would not be so simple anymore...
After all, the tactics His Highness used to achieve his goals were merciless and bloodthirsty.
“Do not let the princess consort know about this in the future,” Baili Jia Jue nonchalantly said.
Eunuch Sun understood that the princess consort was not supposed to read this letter. His Highness had assigned him to her on purpose to prevent this kind of situation from happening.
Fortunately, the princess consort was an open-minded individual. If it was any other woman, it might create a misunderstanding.
Eunuch Sun thought about this and felt a rush of fear, his forehead starting to sweat furiously. He replied in a low voice, “Yes, Your Highness can rest assured that it will not happen again!”
“I do not blame you, those people are far too cunning.” Baili Jia Jue’s thin lips arched upwards but there was no trace of laughter in his eyes. He then opened his robes and stood in the shadows next to the wooden window, looking nefarious and vile like the somber dusk. He lowered his head and drank a mouthful of tea from the teacup he was holding. Then, he coldly muttered, “They really are asking for death...”
The palace was enveloped in an unnatural silence.
It was too eerily quiet.
Therefore, it was inevitable for the Fifth Prince to have doubts.
Even Yun Biluo did not understand it. Is it possible that the letter has not been delivered?
If Helian Wei Wei did not receive the letter personally, everything would be meaningless.
“Miss Yun, what are we going to do now?” The Fifth Prince was still young and could not understand what was happening.
Yun Biluo cleverly let him wait for a while before replying, “We can ask around to find out if Helian Wei Wei actually received the letter.”
This would be easy as the people in the palace had a shrewd common sense, there was no need to inquire anything directly to dig out any information.
The eunuch who served the Fifth Prince hastily returned and knelt on the ground, reporting, “Your Highness, I just found out that the Third Princess Consort has personally received the letter. The seeds of resentment have surely been sowed in her heart...”
