Helian Yu swung his calves, looking carefree and enviable, and his childish voice was particularly arrogant: "I have money!"
"How dare you!" Young Master Zheng slammed the table. "Do you know where this is? This is the Emperor's feet! How dare you, an ignorant boy, be so presumptuous!"
"What's wrong with the emperor's feet?" Helian Yu's dark eyes were clear. "Who are you to the emperor? Why can't I be unbridled with you?"
Chang Zuo walked over and whispered, "Aren't you afraid of being punished when you go back?"
Helian Yu winked at him playfully and explained in a low voice: "Don't worry, I won't punish you."
“You—you—”
Young Master Zheng was trembling. How could he dare to have anything to do with the emperor? He kept saying harsh words for a long time, but he couldn't make any threats at all.
Until Helian Mo walked down the stairs, he said in a gruff voice: "I heard that someone was making trouble in Shangyang Tower, so I came down to take a look."
Han Xingzhi thought for a moment, then stepped forward and apologized: "Your Highness, please calm down."
Helian Mo had something to ask of Han Xingzhi, so he would naturally give him some face and not be too harsh on him. "After all, this is Young Master Han's place, let's go down and take a look together."
"yes."
Helian Mo and Han Xingzhi went downstairs together, while Ning Shuyu looked down from upstairs.
The lobby became much quieter, and irrelevant people mostly stepped back, leaving the middle empty to avoid being accused of unwarranted crimes.
As Helian Mo walked down the stairs, Young Master Zheng came over with an arrogant look on his face and knelt down, "I, Zheng Dai, pay my respects to the Third Prince. May Your Highness live a thousand years! I beg the Third Prince to make the decision for me!"
"You can't even rob people, and yet you still ask others to make decisions for you? Eh~" Helian Yu deliberately raised his voice, "How incompetent~"
Zheng Dai had a backer, and his back straightened up: "Shut up! Don't be rude in front of the Third Prince!"
Helian Mo stopped Zheng Dai and suddenly felt that he had come to the wrong place: "There is a private room upstairs, take Master Zheng and the two people downstairs."
Subordinate: “Yes.”
The guests in the building were quite dissatisfied when they saw that the atmosphere was no longer lively, but since the other party was the prince, they naturally did not dare to complain.
Helian Yu and Chang Zuo were invited to come up. There were a few people in the crowd who knew their identities, but they just smiled and said nothing.
Upstairs, everyone entered the private room, and an invisible tension lingered.
Young Master Zheng knelt down neatly, pointed at Helian Yu, and cried to Helian Mo: "Please Your Highness, she is a troublemaker! She is disrespectful to Your Majesty, ignores the imperial power, and speaks nonsense. I suggest that her parents' identities be strictly investigated, and it would be best if she is thrown into prison!"
Helian Yu said "huh" nonchalantly and walked to Master Zheng's side: "Why do you like Miss Momo?"
Miss Momo was kneeling beside me, her figure was so graceful that I felt pity for her.
Young Master Zheng frowned and ignored Helian Yu: "I beg Your Highness to make the decision and conduct a thorough investigation of this woman's family!"
Helian Mo rubbed his eyebrows, looking somewhat dissatisfied with Zheng Dai: "Master Zheng Xuan's only son?"
Master Zheng was delighted: "Yes!"
Helian Mo: "..."
How could a man like Zheng Xuan, who could be considered an old fox, raise such an idiot son?
"Miss Momo, why aren't you talking?" Helian Yu poked her shoulder. "Are you not very good at talking?"
"Miss Momo has a stutter, don't humiliate her!" Zheng Dai bravely protected the beauty.
Miss Momo looked at him with gratitude.
Helian Yu spread his hands and found a chair to sit down: "Is it because of stuttering that he can't speak, or is it because he dare not speak? There is still room for verification. Right, Mr. Han?"
Han Xingzhi cupped his hands and said, "Miss, your guess is indeed correct."
Seeing that the two were playing charades, Helian Mo's eyes darkened as if he was thinking, and he did not interrupt.
Master Zheng couldn't help but ask Helian Yu: "Who are you?"
"It's better if you don't know." Helian Yu shook his legs twice, "Send the person to Shuntian Prefecture~ Remember to say it's my credit~"
Chang Zuo tried to grab Miss Momo, but just as he stretched out his hand, Miss Momo stood up, touched the blade at her waist, and shot it towards Helian Yu.
One dodged while the other attacked.
Helian Yu was unharmed.
Chang Zuo quickly drew his sword and pressed it against Miss Momo's neck: "Don't move."
Miss Momo sneered and sneered, speaking in the not-so-fluent Central Plains dialect: "The Central Plains will be ours."
"Remove her chin!" Helian Yu ordered hurriedly.
When Chang Zuo made a move, he was still a step too late.
Black blood flowed from the corners of Momo's mouth, and her face was full of indifference and mockery.
Young Master Zheng was stunned and collapsed on the ground, not caring about anything at all. He stared at the fallen Miss Momo, trembling all over.
“Help, help…”
Chang Zuo lowered his eyes: "My mistake."
"It's okay, next time I'll remove the person's chin first." Helian Yu's black eyes were cunning.
"Send the body to Shuntian Prefecture and let the coroners check it. It would be great if they can find some clues." Helian Yu looked at Helian Mo, "Third brother, do you want this credit?"
Helian Mo curved his eyes: "Zhaoyang is willing to give it up?"
"I have other things to do. I need to see my father when I have time, and I also need to go back to coax my master. I also need to study and practice martial arts. I am really busy!"
"Okay, Third Brother would like to thank Zhaoyang. I will invite you to visit my house someday. There are many rare flowers and plants from the border in Third Brother's house. I hope you will like them."
"Yes, yes!"
Master Zheng's legs went completely limp.
He is not stupid. He understands the word "Zhaoyang" and also understands "third brother" and "father".
So, he just disturbed Princess Zhaoyang from handling the case and clamored to deal with the princess's family?
Young Master Zheng thought of his father, a high-ranking official, and suddenly touched his neck...
Finished.
Helian Yu pointed at Master Zheng and said, "Third brother, send two people to escort him back to the mansion and tell Master Zheng what happened today so that he can be on guard. Then check everyone in the mansion to see if there are any spies from the Western Regions."
"Okay." Helian Mo agreed and couldn't help but praise, "Zhaoyang is really smart."
"It's OK~" Helian Yu waved his hand modestly, "You will understand more if you read more books."
"She's reading 'Revenge of the Fake Princess.'" Chang Zuo added, "According to the speed she reads, she'll be able to read the finale tonight."
Helian Yu: "..."
Helian Mo: "..."
Later, Helian Yu was brought to the palace by Helian Mo.
Imperial study.
Helian Yu stood obediently aside and waited for Helian Mo to finish reporting what happened in Shangyang Tower. She immediately ran over and hugged Helian Su's waist and acted coquettishly.
"Father, you are not busy today, right? You have time to listen to my little trivia, so you must not be busy!"
Helian Su raised his eyebrows slightly, and said calmly: "If you have something to say, just say it."
"I just came back from Jinling. I met a very talented girl named Lin Xichun. Father, you can test her. Maybe she is not worse than the top scholar!"
"And more! Shangguan——"
"Xiao Yu'er, the Imperial Master has already reported to me about Lin Xichun's matter. I will find a time to give her a try." Helian Su stuffed a piece of cake into Helian Yu's mouth. "Just now the Imperial Master sent a message asking you to stay at the Imperial Master's Mansion for the next few days to consolidate your neglected studies."
Helian Yu rolled his eyes, took out the cake, chewed it, swallowed it, and asked, "But isn't the palace busy with the Queen Mother's return? Don't I have to follow the rules?"
