“It should be this slave who should be punished for this crime.” The little aide lowered her head, her voice was so low it almost inaudible.

Nangong Lie clenched his fists tightly. He clearly despised himself for using this method, but at the moment he was a bit...

“You are forgiven.” Helian Wei Wei laughed softly. She seemed to be pondering at some unknowns, “Why don’t you follow me later. Think of it as a punishment for this one.”

The little aide did not expect such a result. Early on, she listened to others saying that the princess that His Highness married to was not to be trifled with. She also heard that it was not known why His Highness paid attention to her, let her do as she pleased, and unexpectedly took care of everything.

She thought that if she fell into the hands of such a woman, she would surely lose most of her life if she did not die.

Because she was brought up to be a death warrior, she knew better than anyone that there were those among the ladies of influential families who took pleasure in torturing people. It’s no matter how wonderful they looked on the surface.

But who would have thought that the princess not only did not get angry but would also let the little aide follow her?

“What? You are not willing to come?” Helian Wei Wei asked the little aide. Then, she glanced at Nangong Lie with a hidden meaning.

Her complexion was somewhat unsightly, the smile was even stiffer.

The little aide hurriedly shook her head, “This slave is willing. Thank you, Princess, for giving this favour.”

This way, the matter can be solved satisfactorily.

What’s more, the man never looked at her favourably. She would rather follow the princess than stay beside him and bore him.

In fact, she also understood why he loathed her. He always hated other people’s schemes, but she violated this taboo and exploited his trust in order to obtain him.

No, she was not able to obtain him.

She pushed him further away...

Hearing her words, Nangong Lie sneered ferociously, “Ah Jue, your people are really half-hearted. Before, she said that she was willing to do anything for me as long as she could stay by my side. Now someone else said a few words, and she wants to leave.”

Instantly, the little aide’s face turned pale.

Helian Wei Wei looked at her and saw her bite her lip in embarrassment, but her eyes were silently tenacious.

Perhaps it was this tenacity that made Helian Wei Wei more pleased with her.

Nangong Lie hid his clenched hands under the robe’s long sleeves. He resumed an indifferent posture and his eyes looked coldly at the little aid. “Do as you wish. Follow whoever you like. But think it over. You will remain here today and never enter the hall of ancestral worship again.”

He had given her the right to enter and leave the hall of ancestral worship at will, and she had used that right to drug his incense.

But even if that matter occurred, he was still very tolerant of her. At the very least he did not feed her to the dogs.

She also did not go outside to inquire about what’s going to happen to her people, the entire four or nine cities.

He was just indifferent to her for a few days, but she was fine, ah! She said she would go with others, then she would do just that.

Didn’t it mean that he was already acted as her master?

It seemed that her master was at most dealing with it.

Ah.

He knew how important it was for her to enter and leave the hall of ancestral worship at will because that was the duty that Ah Jue had ordered her to do.

Wasn’t that the reason why she put up with him so much before?

Now, she certainly wouldn’t be able to leave so easily.

But who knew how to calculate the heavens. Even though Nangong Lie was a genius in sacrificial rituals, everything went wrong.

The little aide pinched the corner of her clothes until her fingers lost their colours. When she lifted her eyes again, she was indifferently calm. “Then I won’t enter anymore.”

“What did you say?” Nangong Lie was not aware that at the moment rage burst forth from his eyes. He had never shown that expression in front of people.

Even Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows.

Baili Jia Jue had a noble and indifferent expression from beginning to end. His eyes focused on Nangong Lie.

But he took a step forward and looked down coldly at the little aide kneeling on the floor. “Repeat one more time what you just said.”

“Since Young Master Li didn’t want this slave to appear, I won’t appear.” The little aide’s head was lowered.

Nangong Lie thin lips turned down coldly, “Good, very good!”

After finished speaking, he strode out of the hall with a wave of his long sleeves, as if to say that he had finally thrown the sticky insect away.

The little aide looked at his outstanding and unruly figure from behind. Her eyes darkened. He must have waited a long time for this opportunity. Although she had already known that he was tired of her, when she saw it, she still felt like her heart was stuffy and even her breathing became a little uncomfortable...

Her eyes were a little blurry. She just wanted to look up. When she pushed her head up, somebody put a hand on the top of her head and rubbed it back and forth.

Afterwards.

She saw a hand.

The fingers of that hand were slender and white, a white handkerchief spread between the long fingers.

Incredulous, the little aide let the hand cover her eyes. “Princess?”

Helian Wei Wei smiled and pulled her up. Her tone was natural. “Girl, bear this in mind. As long as women wear makeups on their faces and wealth on their bodies, they are not afraid to go anywhere. So, don’t cry.”

She did not cry, apparently she did not want to make herself too unsightly. The little aide really never met such a woman. She could not help but looked down and said “Yes.” Then she thought about it and added, “Thank you, Princess.”

“No need to thank me. I thank you, too.” Helian Wei Wei slyly smiled. Otherwise, she didn’t know how to target that genius in sacrificial rituals . She finally found his weakness. Of course, she wanted to get him by her side and let him feel regret.

Of course, the main thing was that girl was not the one who would suffer losses.

Especially for a girl who looked so pretty. She appeared wooden and slow outwardly, but in fact her eyes were very clear and tenacious.

Although she did not know what had happened between those two.

Nevertheless, if she stayed by Nangong Lie’s side in such a state, it would be a torture for the little aide.

In a romantic relationship, once one party was too humble, it would only foster the other person’s arrogance.

At this point, she would like to see how Nangong Lie could still stay arrogant.

He dared to prescribe drugs on her, ha ha. She couldn’t kill him, nevertheless she must let him suffer some torments!

As for His Highness...

Helian Wei Wei looked at Eunuch Sun who stood on one side with a faint smile. “Eunuch Sun, what about the money from the bed this time? Give another one to His Highness. It’s his credit.”

“Ah...” Eunuch Sun was about to speak.

Then he heard Baili Jia Jue’s graceful and noble voice spoke in an unhurried manner, “Do you think that if you sell that bed ten times, this prince will buy it ten times?”

“Of course not. I’m just watching how long Your Highness would play. Now that Your Highness is tired of playing, that’s just fine.” Helian Wei Wei smiled. “That’s just fine. Eunuch Sun is going to ask around for potential buyer who wants this bed. It will be sold cheaply.”
