"And then she treated you? And it even hurts you to death? "
Helian Xiufeng gritted his teeth, but his heart began to waver. Could it be that Princess Mo wanted to use this opportunity to deal with him and not force him to cure her poison due to her status?
When Helian Yu saw her dumbstruck appearance, he felt even angrier. In his disdain, he simply closed his eyes completely. In his heart, the cold and elegant Princess Mo floated up to his.
Even he was so crafty and deceitful, there was nothing to compare him to. He only thought of Gu Qingli, and then he compared Helian Lie's image with his own. It was like comparing a floating cloud and mud.
Seeing that his elder brother was unwilling to pay any more attention to himself, Helian Hua knew that he had most likely been dealt with. He stomped his feet and angrily rushed back to his own residence, instructing as he walked, "Bring some water for me to bathe and change my clothes. This dress of Dongyuan is really awkward, making it so that no one is able to walk."
The Northern Chu was a close-knit, short-lived, unruly place, and he often wore tight clothes to hunt. His long, wide sleeves and elegant dress almost made her fall a few times.
In the bathroom, Helian Xiangrui quickly took off his clothes, untied his long hair, stepped into the cedar tub and lay down on his back. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief. He felt extremely comfortable.
The water in the well was crisp and clean, and inside were the fresh chrysanthemum petals sent from below the Cheng Yang Inn. They floated in the water, exuding a faint fragrance.
The land of Chu was arid and short of water. Even though she was a noble daughter of the Royal family, it was still difficult for her to use up as much water as Dong Yuan did. She didn't pay as much attention to bathing. Furthermore, the Northern Chu's water was often sedimented and filtered. There was always the smell of sand and earth, and the harsh weather would never have flowers blooming. She was surprised that she would be so particular when she took a bath in Dongyuan City.
The group of female bodyguards and palace maids by Helian Xiangrong's side were all flowery martial artists that would often travel in martial attire. At this moment, two people stepped forward to help her scrub and bathe. Just as they lifted her long hair, they cried out in alarm, "Princess, this is …"
"What's wrong?" Upon hearing her nervous voice, Helian Xianzi immediately realized that it couldn't be that the poison had spread to his back and caused him to be covered in black air, right?
That palace maid covered her mouth in embarrassment, not daring to speak for the moment.
Another palace maid came over to take a look and also exclaimed: "This, this … What's going on? "
Even though they had plenty of imagination, it was hard for them to understand when a turtle had been painted on the princess's bare back. The turtle on the other hand, was not painted with ink. It melted as soon as it touched water, but was made of fine powder. It was actually quite waterproof, and would not melt even if it was submerged in water.
"What is going on?" When Helian Peng heard them stammering, but no one was willing to tell the truth, he lost his patience and became angry.
They immediately got up and went to find a mirror in front of the dressing table. With great difficulty, they found two bronze mirrors, one held behind Helian Lie's back, the other stood at an angle in front of her, and the two mirrors reflected back at each other, giving a clear picture of the tortoise behind them.
Helian Lie's anger surged upwards. He grabbed the bronze mirror held by the palace maid in front of him and smashed it down with a loud bang. For no reason, the neat teak flooring of the inn had also been smashed and the mirror had become distorted.
The floors of the East Abyss and the copper mirror seemed to have intelligence of their own. When they met this Princess Helian in the future, they would probably be trembling in fear.
"M …" Princess … "This …"
Helian Lie gritted his teeth. Ignoring the noble bearing of a proud daughter of heaven, he scolded Gu Qing Li in the washroom. He used all sorts of vulgar words to scare the two palace maids.
It was only after he had scolded enough and was tired that Helian Lie realized his voice had become hoarse. He had been screaming in pain and now he was cursing out of anger. It was likely that he wouldn't be able to speak tomorrow.
She thought about it again, but found that it was impossible to bring the matter to justice. After all, she was also a daughter, and was a princess of a kingdom. How could she explain to others that she had been stripped of her clothes and painted on her back like a tortoise? Even if this tortoise was still on his back, he couldn't even call his own brother in to take a look. In a moment, he would wipe it clean with water, so how could he have any evidence that Gu Qingli had done it?
The more Helian Shuang thought about it, the more furious she became. She slapped the surface of the water, causing water to splash everywhere and even the fragrant petals to become repulsive.
After waiting for her rage, the two palace maids carefully helped her clean the tortoise. Unavoidably, they were still slapped a few times by her anger. It was all because their hands were too heavy and rubbing them was painful.
However, if they didn't rub her waterproof eyebrows hard, they wouldn't be able to wash them off. The palace maids' eyes were filled with tears, but they didn't dare to complain.
After having taken the most depressing bath of his life, Helian Shuang angrily rushed towards Helian Yu to complain, wanting him to stick his head out for his.
Helian Yu's short rest was interrupted twice, and he felt really unhappy in his heart. He then heard Helian Peng fire talk about the tortoise, thought about it, and laughed out loud. His cold expression, which was rarely seen on his face, broke the ice, as he said to Helian Peng, "You said that she used Mei Di to draw a tortoise in your north? That turtle can be washed clean? "
"When I was bathing and changing my clothes, of course I washed it off!" Helian Shuanghua did not understand why he was paying attention to these things that were out of tune.
"What a pity, what a pity!"
"What's a pity?"
Helian Yu wanted to laugh in his heart. He thought it was a pity that he couldn't admire Gu Qing Li's painting, but he couldn't say those words bluntly. He only coughed lightly and spoke with a solemn expression, "Naturally, it's for evidence. After all, it is not easy for you to speak empty words to get me to stand up for you — you have to report this matter to His Majesty, the Emperor of Dongyuan and let him send someone to verify it. Only then will you be able to persuade him. Not only is he chosen by the emperor for the throne, she is also the prime minister's direct daughter. He is a lady of a noble family with strict upbringing. If you were to say these words, even if others believe you, they would pursue the matter to the root and ask for the cause. "Then, without going through the Imperial Palace to welcome the guests, you charged into Prince Mo's Mansion without being married. Your words and actions are unchanging, and you even dared to attack his imperial concubine. Do you think it's reasonable for you to speak so arrogantly?"
Helian Peng opened his mouth, and although he had nothing to say, the hatred in his heart grew. He felt that this brother of his was just helping others and didn't care about himself.
For a moment, she felt wronged. With tears in her eyes, she said angrily, "Big Brother Crown Prince, are you going to let that woman bully your little sister? No matter how rude I was, it was all because of how I treated Xiao Yi Xiu … You should also know why I have come to Dongyuan City. I … "I …"
Helian Yu knew very well that he viewed Xiao Yi as his greatest enemy. Even though he deeply hated him, he respected him a bit as well. It was the kind of feeling that made it difficult to explain when encountering an enemy.
