"Ah Yuan, are you happy?"
Helian Jue, holding an eyebrow pencil, saw Xie Yuan beaming with joy and couldn't help but ask a question.
"Of course! I'm especially happy to know that Xie Rou is having a hard time!"
Xie Yuan made no attempt to hide his smile, which was radiant.
"What a coincidence, I'm happy too!"
Helian Jue stared intently at Xie Yuan for a long time before finally breaking into a smile that was captivating.
He was even happier: Ah Yuan and I are indeed a match made in heaven, we are both so vengeful.
He likes A-Yuan like this.
Helian Jue feared that the ruthless decisions he made outside would lead to a rigid and dogmatic wife at home who constantly talked about tolerance and generosity and advised him to be kind.
What tolerance?
What kindness?
He will repay every inch with a mile!
When he was crippled, everyone around him scattered like monkeys fleeing a fallen tree.
The Xie family also got involved, using tactics like breaking off the engagement and offering a substitute bride to humiliate themselves.
Although it was because of the Xie family's shameless actions that Helian Jue met the woman he believed to be the best in the world, his only love.
However, his acquaintance, friendship, and love with A-Yuan were their destiny and a blessing to each other.
None of this can conceal Xie Ze's initial malice!
And then there's Xie Rou, whose snobbish and vain nature was something Helian Jue had heard about even in the Eastern Palace.
It would be a shame if Helian Jue didn't take advantage of this woman with such lofty ambitions, given their ill-fated relationship.
Xie Rou's marriage to the Fourth Prince as a concubine was not solely orchestrated by Helian Jue, but he was secretly involved in the process.
Xie Yuan was happily imagining Xie Rou struggling to make a living under the care of Princess Xu, the daughter of a stable boy. Hadn't Helian Jue thought about it as well?
Seeing Xie Yuan's relaxed smile, Helian Jue's mood became even more cheerful.
Holding the eyebrow pencil, Helian Jue drew the last petal.
He admired it with satisfaction, then nodded vigorously: "Beautiful!"
"It's truly beautiful! Your Highness's floral decorations are so well done!"
Xie Yuan looked at the two figures in the bronze mirror, his eyes and brows radiating happiness.
Helian Jue then drew Xie Yuan's eyebrows and adorned them with a red-gold phoenix hairpin.
It took quite a while to finish helping Xie Yuan with her makeup.
The couple left the main bedroom together and went to the outer hall.
Granny Zhao and Xie Zhen had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing the couple's intimate behavior and her young mistress's face filled with undisguised shyness and happiness, her heart finally settled down.
That's great! That's really great!
The young lady and the prince finally consummated their marriage and became a real couple.
In this way, the eldest daughter will have a more legitimate claim to the Yue Prince's Mansion.
In a few days, I'll give birth to a little prince for the prince. Ah, then this will be a perfect ending!
"Sister! Brother! Why did it take you so long to get here! Zhen is starving!"
Little Fatty Xie Zhen was unaware of Granny Zhao's thoughts; he was still young and hadn't considered much.
He greeted Xie Yuan and Helian Jue warmly, just as he always did.
"Ah Zhen is hungry, let's eat quickly."
Xie Yuan instinctively reached out to hug his younger brother, but Helian Jue glanced at Xie Zhen's chubby little face.
It's been a few months, and this little chubby boy has gotten even fatter.
With its round and plump appearance, it must weigh at least forty or fifty pounds.
Xie Yuan is slender and graceful, probably weighing only 80 or 90 pounds.
With her small frame, it's really not easy for her to pick up the little chubby boy.
In addition, last night... cough cough, A-Yuan must be very tired, so I shouldn't let her work harder.
Thinking of this, Helian Jue acted before Xie Yuan could, grabbing Xie Zhen's clothes and lifting him up like a kitten.
Xie Yuan and Granny Zhao both widened their eyes, their hearts pounding in their chests.
They were worried that Helian Jue would hurt Xie Zhen.
After a brief moment of panic, Xie Zhen quickly adapted to the feeling of being lifted into the air.
"Hehe, brother, this is fun! I want to be lifted high! I want to be lifted high!"
Hearing Xie Zhen's laughter, Helian Jue's aloof face showed no impatience. Instead, he actually complied with Xie Zhen's request and changed the "lifting" to "raising".
Xie Zhen's gaze suddenly rose from mid-air to high altitude, as if he were riding a roller coaster, feeling both excited and thrilled.
Xie Yuan and Granny Zhao's hearts also suddenly soared.
The master and servant stared intently at Helian Jue's hand, fearing that he might slip and drop Xie Zhen.
Helian Jue looked thin, but after several months of marching and fighting, he had indeed developed a muscular physique.
Holding up the chubby Xie Zhen, there was no sign of strain.
He even easily tossed Xie Zhen higher.
"Wow! So high! Hehe, this is so much fun!"
Xie Zhen shouted excitedly.
Xie Yuan and Granny Zhao clutched their chests, watching this scene with bated breath.
"Alright, Your Highness, it's getting late, the food is getting cold!"
Seeing Helian Jue toss Xie Zhen around like a ball several times, Xie Yuan's heart also took a rollercoaster ride.
She finally couldn't hold back and rushed forward to stop her.
Helian Jue cooperated perfectly and stopped when he heard Xie Yuan's words.
On the contrary, Xie Zhen, the little dumpling, was not satisfied at all. "No, I want to play more!"
Xie Yuan tried to reason with Xie Zhen, "Zhen, His Highness will get tired. Besides, aren't you hungry? Your elder sister and brother are hungry too. Let's eat, shall we?"
Xie Zhen was in high spirits as he started a new entertainment project.
However, he was always sensible, and when he heard his sister say that, he obediently nodded, "Okay! Brother, let's eat first, and then play, okay?"
"……good!"
Helian Jue was aloof by nature and rarely interacted with people.
However, out of respect for Xie Yuan, he still treated Xie Zhen as one of his own.
Of course, this chubby little boy is also quite good-looking, sensible, and most importantly, he has an innocent and carefree spirit.
This is something that Helian Jue, who grew up in the complex palace, lacked and rarely possessed!
Okay!
Although the little chubby boy is a bit silly and cute, he is still our own, so we will take better care of him from now on.
"Brother, brother, sister said you went out to conquer new territories? Is fighting a lot of fun? Zhen wants to go to war with you too!"
After finishing her meal, Xie Zhen became lively again.
This time, instead of pestering Helian Jue to lift him up high, he acted like a little adult, demanding to learn skills: "I am a little man, I want to practice martial arts, lead troops into battle, I want to become a champion marquis, and protect my elder sister and elder brother!"
Looking at the fair-skinned and chubby Xie Zhen, Helian Jue simply couldn't connect such a wealthy young master with the champion marquis who was the bravest in the army.
However, it's good that the child has goals and is willing to strive for improvement.
"Champion Marquis? Very well, I also want to compete with Emperor Wu and see if I can also cultivate a Champion Marquis!"
The Marquis of Champion in history was a maternal relative raised by the emperor.
Xie Zhen may also become a relative of the emperor in the future.
Helian Jue spoke as if he were coaxing a child, but his eyes gleamed with ambition.
