Chapter 466: How To Thank Your Husband

“Hire me as your military advisor…” Baili Jia Jue continued to say with a quiet, magnetic voice.

Helian Wei Wei’s eyes brightened up. It would be ideal if His Highness could accompany her, no doubt he had more experience in politics than her.

However…

“Will the imperial palace be fine without you?” Helian Wei Wei was concerned about the current volatile condition of the imperial court.

Baili Jia Jue turned the teacup in his hands, saying, “Have you ever seen me stay in the imperial palace for the entire day? Grandfather is holding the fort in the Capital, it will be fine. There are benefits if I transfer too.”

“What are they?” Helian Wei Wei had no idea how this could be beneficial to Baili Jia Jue.

He said calmly, “I am bound to be a prince regent in the future, therefore I need to make some achievements now for my eventual ascension to be more persuasive. Some people have influences that are deeply entrenched in the Capital, uprooting them here would be too arduous. It might be easier to burrow in from outside, layer by layer.”

Helian Wei Wei knew who Baili Jia Jue meant clearly, without even naming them.

Come to think of it, it does make sense. The web of connections of the four influential families was too extensive, a small ripple would trigger a huge wave of reactions.

Their roots in the Capital were too deep underground, it would perhaps be more effective to trace back to their origin, from the roots of their connections from outside the Capital.

Helian Wei Wei dispelled her only concern at that very thought.

Both of them were efficient, thus they met with the Retired Emperor immediately after returning to the palace.

After listening to them and mulling it over, the Retired Emperor said with a smile, “I am impressed that both of you have such profound thinking. Jue Er, you are right, but the location is of vital importance either. The Southern region is too far. Firstly, the political circle is too tight-knit there, thus entering it would be futile. Secondly, it’s not convenient for emergency situations. People claim that it’s easier to make contributions and fame in the poorer regions. Listen to me, go to Fuping instead!”

“Fuping? Within the borders of Hebei? The place is neither too far nor too close to the Capital, and is famous for its picturesque landscapes.” Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrow, unsure whether it was the place that she knew.

The Retired Emperor stroked his beard and assured her, “That’s the place. Wei Wei, Jue Er, don’t underestimate this small, unpretentious Fuping County. The smaller the county, the more landowners there would be. They neither fear God nor the Emperor, rampantly conducting unethical acts. Being in the imperial palace, I have to consider every aspect when ruling the country. I would be at ease if I can pass you the things that I can’t do for the people. Some individuals pillage the people’s fruits of labor for their personal gain, yet the people can’t voice their extreme anguish. Whether it is extortion or deception, these brutes have done it all. This time, help me catch the culprit as a stern warning to others! Don’t worry! When the time comes, I will punish them accordingly, no matter how influential the people backing them are!”

“Yes!” Helian Wei Wei smiled a little and saluted him by raising her hand beside her forehead.

The Retired Emperor was puzzled at her action, not understanding what the gesture meant. Then, he let out a roar of laughter and said, “This silly girl.”

Helian Wei Wei’s admiration for this old man grew even more. Although most of the things that he had done had gone out of his control, every thought he spared was still for the country. A person like him was worthy to be highly regarded by society.

A prince raised by an old man like him should not be too terrible.

His Highness’ tactics were a little overly vile and shameless, so he did not appear to be too amicable.

However, deep down, he meant well.

Helian Wei Wei turned around and smiled at Baili Jia Jue.

He was slightly baffled, but she explained her thoughts to him when they exited the palace.

Baili Jia Jue listened on as he held her in his embrace. Who could’ve known that this little thing has such a strong sense of justice…

“Don’t change the topic. Tell me first, how are you going to thank your husband tonight? Hmm?”

His warm breath brushed against the back of Helian Wei Wei’s ear, and before she could react, he lifted her up and carried her into the sleeping chamber.

The torment went on for the entire night, it was ruthless and unforgiving.

Helian Wei Wei had no idea how she provoked him. She only remembered begging for his mercy and calling his name countless times.

He only let her go at late midnight. As he patted her back with his left hand, he warned her softly, “If I ever hear that you confessed to anyone again, I will lock you up. Do you understand?”

Helian Wei Wei merely lay in his embrace weakly, feeling exhausted. Isn’t this already in the past? It seems like I have underestimated his jealousy.

As Helian Wei Wei thought to herself, a faint smile appeared in the corner of her mouth.

“You’re only smiling without replying to me?” Baili Jia Jue said as he pinched her chin. His ethereal facial features were handsome yet evil, and at a closer look, the beautiful smile on his countenance was unrivaled by anything on earth.

Helian Wei Wei extended her arm and embraced his lean yet powerful waist. She looked up and said teasingly, “This Master, you look so handsome when you’re jealous.”

“Jealous? I can be jealous?” Baili Jia Jue laughed loudly, and then pulled her in. “It’s because you did something wrong and needed a lesson.”

Helian Wei Wei nodded in agreement, saying, “I do need a lesson. From now on, I will only confess my love to you, I won’t look at anyone else.”

“That’s more like it,” Baili Jia Jue muttered coldly.

Helian Wei Wei thought to herself. Your Highness, does your family know that you’re proud as such?

“During this trip to Fuping, return your face to its previous state.” Baili Jia Jue sounded very serious as he uttered calmly, “You look good with dark skin, why do you have to become so fair?”

Helian Wei Wei pondered to herself… I am born a natural beauty, is this my fault?

“You’re too attractive, men will swarm to you like bees and butterflies to honey.” Baili Jia Jue hugged her in one arm and placed the other behind his head, shutting his eyes leisurely.

She merely lay on his body, fatigue had long overtaken her. Whatever he says is right, I suppose.

As a bossy president, she had no care for the minute details…

“Hey, woman, don’t sleep yet,” Yuan Ming called her through her consciousness from the Fantasy Space.

Helian Wei Wei was too lazy to move, replying, “What is it?”

“I noticed something, when you’re beside the Third Prince, your soul is a lot calmer.” Yuan Ming smiled devilishly and continued, “Looks like the Third Prince is quite extraordinary.” Helian Wei Wei merely yawned and replied, “This is the power of love.”

Both Yuan Ming and Whitey were rendered speechless…

Yuan Ming was a demon. As a demon, he knew the reason for this very well.

In his opinion, Baili Jia Jue definitely had some hidden secrets that even he could not uncover.

If he was an ordinary person, it would be impossible for him to remain so unwaveringly in between the consciousness of a human and a demon, unaffected by its magic.

Baili Jia Jue should have fallen into the Magic Path instantly when he was outside of the imperial palace today. However, he was evidently able to control himself, suppressing the violent urges successfully without leaving a trace.

He would not have noticed that something was odd with Baili Jia Jue if he did not see the faint light in his eyes.

That pair of eyes had undoubtedly flashed signs of transforming into a demon…

Perhaps, it was wise to leave the imperial palace for some time.

After all, the aura of resentment was too strong here, it would no doubt affect both Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue…
