Chapter 250: His Majesty’s Betrothal Gifts

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Her glance seemed to be asking, what did these things mean?

Baili Jia Jue looked at her. His voice was extremely weak, but could not hide his innate grace and dignity, “Those are betrothal gifts.”

Betrothal gifts?

Everyone was stunned!

Nearly all of them doubted whether there was something wrong with their ears!

At this time, people just recalled that the world-famous third prince had chosen an imperial concubine not long ago. It seemed that they had said that whoever won the martial qi tournament would be chosen as the imperial concubine.

But, but, but...

Even though Helian Wei Wei was no longer a waste, she looked like that. They all thought the third prince would use her appearance to reject the marriage.

They didn’t expect this!

His Third Highness actually ordered more than ten boxes of gold to be given to Helian Wei Wei!

And he said that they were betrothal gifts!

It was like a bolt of thunder that shook the heavens!

The crowd looked at the wooden boxes that glittered like gold. They were struck dumb.

Was it true that whoever marries the third prince would have such gold?

Heavens!

What good luck did Helian Wei Wei have!

Helian Wei Wei was a bit unresponsive, but it wasn’t the gold that stunned her.

It was the persistence of a certain Royal Highness in giving betrothal gifts...

From before the martial arts tournament started, a certain Royal Highness seemed to have a strong affinity to these two words: “betrothal gifts”.

Helian Wei Wei wrinkled her willowy eyebrows. This hard to avoid situation led her to somewhat hesitate.

Such hesitation, when seen by Baili Jia Jue, made the expression in his eyes change. A smile slowly appeared on his lips.

The smile was a bit cold, reflected in his penetrating peach blossom eyes. At first glance, it made people feel a shocking evil, “What? You’re not willing to accept them?”

“It’s not that I’m unwilling to accept it.” Helian Wei Wei was quite distressed. “I don’t know what to use as a dowry.”

Having said that, Helian Wei Wei felt a little uncomfortable. She never thought that one day she would discuss with a man in public the question of “betrothal gifts and bride dowry”.

Sure enough, when she looked up, His Third Highness wore a somewhat blank expression.

In any case, they’ve talked about it. Helian Wei Wei didn’t care about it, “Wait until before we get married, I will make it up for Your Highness.”

Baili Jia Jue grunted his assent, which carried a shallow evil aura that only she could see.

Helian Wei Wei only felt an indescribable warmth on her cheeks. If she had known earlier, she would not say anything and just silently accepted the gifts.

Looking at Helian Wei Wei’s appearance, Murong Changfeng who was standing under the stage, clenched his fists tightly.

She’s getting married.

And her husband was not him...

Until now, he had not understood what position Helian Wei Wei really held in his mind.

He truly loathed her pestering, but he also did not want her to pester others.

If... he didn’t break his engagement at that time, would he be ... the man who became her husband?

Once this idea is formed, Murong Changfeng felt as if there were countless ants climbing in his heart. It was an indescribably suffocating!

The Retired Emperor was so happy that he said “Good,” thrice in a row. He turned around and commanded, “Go and inform the Defense Division. Ten days later, a big wedding will be held!”

Ten days? Wasn’t it a bit rushed?

Everyone took a quick glance. This was totally a forced marriage, ah!

In all likelihood, the reason why the Third Highness married Helian Wei Wei was also because of the Retired Emperor.

Not only did the insignificant people think so, but even the death knights who came out of the Ghost Palace think so.

“Bai Mei, let’s fly down and get rid of this woman for His Highness.” A woman dressed in a black as night garb was hidden in a corner, her eyes glittered with jealousy.

The woman called Bai Mei grabbed the woman in black and shook her head gently. “No, Hei Zhu! You’ll spoil His Highness’s plan by doing so!”

“Your Highness is clearly unwilling to let such an ugly woman enter the palace!” Hei Zhu grasped the sword in her hand tightly.

Bai Mei frowned, “No one can make His Highness do what he would not like to do, and we have not followed His Highness during this period. We do not know the situation at all, so Hei Zhu, you should not interfere in this matter.”

“But His Highness’s heart clearly only has Eldest Sister. There is no reason to choose a dark and ugly woman. You just saw her means, that kind of viciousness, your Highness would not like such a woman at all!” Hei Zhu said indignantly and wanted to fly down right away!

Shadow moved and stood in front of her with an indignant glare, “Bai Mei said right, no one can make His Highness do what he does not want, I advise you, it is best to restrain those thoughts. Do not mention those things in the past in front of the Princess. His Highness would not care about those over ten years of old affections. This time His Highness calls you back to protect the princess, day and night before she gets married.”

“Princess?” Hei Zhu sneered: “She also deserves to be a princess?”

After that, she turned around and left. Her appearance was so contemptuous that Shadow could not help but gaze.

Nobody noticed in the surge of crowds. Just under the crowded stage, a man in a long white robe slightly squinted. When he looked at Helian Wei Wei, a dark glint emerged in his eyes.

As if noticing the presence of the line of sight, Helian Wei Wei swiftly turned around. She only saw inside the enthusiastic crowd, a man in white flew fast, leaving only a view of his back like watery spilt ink...

Half an hour later.

In the Defense Division estate.

He believed firmly that Helian Jiao Er would certainly win, so Helian Guang Yao did not rush to the scene. The shock flashed on his face made his whole face look a little stiff. It was inconceivable, he could not imagine, but was definitely not surprised!

Eunuch Sun held the white floating duster in one hand and the imperial edict in the other. After reading, his mouth was still smiling. When he saw Helian Guang Yao’s response, he was only a little surprised. He soon smiled and said, “Congratulations to Your Excellency, happiness is coming to the Defense Division estate. All your three daughters are going to marry.”

Su Yanmo, however, seemed to have not heard what Eunuch Sun said next. She pressed her fingers on the maid’s arm tightly and even the muscles on her face were incomparably stiff. “It’s impossible, how can Jiao Er lose! That’s impossible!” With that, she raised her head. “Eunuch Sun, is this Imperial Decree wrong? How can the Retired Emperor do this? How can he marry Jiao Er to a castrate?”

Su Yanmo always understood how to hide her emotions. However, today, she forgot the propriety and questioned the genuineness of the imperial edict. Even her voice was ear-piercingly sharp.

It’s just unlike her.

The daughter whom she raised with the utmost care is now going to marry a castrate, how could she accept this?

Sun Yan Mo braced her head in a daze, and the maid standing next to her quickly reached out to hold her.

Eunuch Sun, however, was indifferent and carried the imperial decree, “Madame Su’s meaning is to blame the Retired Emperor?”

“Eunuch Sun, my wife absolutely did not mean that!” Helian Guang Yao quickly opened his mouth and explained, but his heart seemed to be crushed by a huge stone.

He never imagined that this would happen!
