Chapter 451: The Little Commandery Princess of Nanzhao (1)
The Helian family was a loyal supporter of the Emperor. On the surface, they were not allowed to be too close to the royal family, but the children were all once study companions of the commandery prince and princess. They grew up together as childhood sweethearts and their friendship was extraordinary. Therefore, even though the few of them had grown up and were forbidden by Helian Beiming to approach the Queen Manor, they still had contact with the Little Commandery Princess in private.
The three of them arranged to meet at a teahouse between the Helian family and the Queen Manor. The Little Commandery Princess was already waiting. This was almost impossible in the past. The two of them knocked on the door according to the secret code. The Little Commandery Princess’s maidservant opened the door.
The maidservant did not recognize who it was at first glance. While the maidservant was stunned, the two of them entered the room one after another.
The Little Commandery Princess guessed that it was them. As she turned around, she complained, “How long have I been waiting for you? Why did you only… Uh…” When the Little Commandery Princess saw the two of them clearly, she was suddenly stunned. “W-what happened to you?”
Both of them cleared their throats awkwardly.
Helian Yu did not know how to answer. Helian Cheng snorted and complained, “It’s all because an uninvited guest suddenly came to our house and insisted that he was the legitimate son of my dead second uncle. On the first day he entered the manor, he gave me and my second brother a big show of strength! The Wushan Lingzhi that was supposed to be offered to the princess was also destroyed by that guy!”
When the Little Commandery Princess heard the front part, she was relatively indifferent, but the last sentence made the beautiful Little Commandery Princess frown. “What did you say? The Wushan Lingzhi is gone?”
“That’s right!” Helian Cheng saw that the Little Commandery Princess’s reaction was so intense, and he became even more interested in complaining. He twisted and exaggerated the excuse that he had already exaggerated twice to the Old Master. From Yan Jiuchao being a country bumpkin who damaged the Wushan Lingzhi to Yan Jiuchao knowing that it was the treasure of the second branch and deliberately stepping on the second branch to abuse his power.
The Little Commandery Princess frowned even more tightly. “…How can there be such an unreasonable person?”
Helian Cheng said aggrievedly, “Isn’t that so? Second Brother and I were bullied by him to this extent to protect Wushan Lingzhi!”
It was obvious that he had rushed to the greenhouse after the Wushan Lingzhi withered and was injured when he wanted to take Yan Jiuchao down a notch. However, it was a completely different story in his mouth.
Helian Yu did not refute.
The Little Commandery Princess did not care how the two of them were injured. What she cared about was that the pot of Wushan Lingzhi was gone. She stomped her feet and said, “My mother’s birthday is coming soon. I wanted to give her a special birthday gift, so I asked you to buy Wushan Lingzhi! What should I do now that it’s gone?”
Her Highness was second only to everyone. She had half of the country and countless gold and silver. She did not care about those. It was precisely because of this that no one knew where to start when choosing congratulatory gifts. It was not entirely true that the Wushan Lingzhi was expensive, and the medicinal effect was especially ordinary, but it was rare!
It was very difficult to find a second one in Nanzhao.
“It’s all your fault! You can’t even look after a Lingzhi properly!” The Little Commandery Princess lost her temper. “If Big Brother Helian was around, he definitely wouldn’t let that country bumpkin succeed!”
