Chapter 13 Princess Yongle?



"What is Xiaoyuer looking for?"

Helian Chi's words brought Helian Yu back.

Helian Yu did not see the stunning beauty, so he simply turned around and asked, "Fourth Prince, are you attending?"

"You have to call me Fourth Brother when you go out." Helian Chi pinched Helian Yu's little face and corrected him in a low voice, "Remember?"

Helian Yu secretly said something to him, then nodded obediently, "I'll remember that."

"What did you remember?" Helian Chi teased with his lips curled, his starry eyes shining brightly.

"...When you are out, call your fourth brother."

"Then call and let's hear it."

"...Fourth brother." Helian Yu squeezed out the words from between his teeth, quite reluctantly.

Helian Yu stretched his neck and looked forward. The huge lantern was two meters high, made of pure gold, inlaid with various jewels, and had very delicate patterns.

Helian Yu rushed forward, she wanted to participate too!

"Can you write poetry?" Helian Chi looked down at Helian Yu, whose eyes were glowing green, and couldn't help laughing.

"No!" Helian Yu's childish voice was very loud and confident, "What if the boss can't appreciate poetry!"

The luckiest thing in the world is when a blind cat catches a dead mouse.

Helian Yu rushed forward with great interest, grabbed a piece of white paper, grabbed the brush on the table, and looked at the person who had asked the question.

"We are in the process of building a large business in Fengge Flower House. Why don't you write a poem on the theme of Flower House?"

Helian Chi's face immediately turned black, and he snatched the brush from Helian Yu's hand, "How vulgar!"

"I can write!" Helian Yu snatched the brush again, his little face stubborn.

"Do you know what a brothel is?" Helian Chi's face was darker than ink.

"I'm not stupid. A brothel is a place where people sell their art and body."

Helian Yu snorted and started writing on the paper with a pen in hand.

At the same time, the young steward was already reading the poems composed by the young men of letters.

"Picking flowers, pouring wine, playing the pipa, covering the moon with candles and blowing the fragrance in the tent."

"People come and go among the flowers, and even ten thousand ounces of gold cannot redeem me."

"The wake-up stick fell and the horse was on the horse..."

Here, after Helian Yu finished writing eight words, the ink ran out in his head, and he looked at Helian Chi for help.

Helian Chi glanced at her, his eyes fell on the paper she was writing, and his face suddenly turned red as if he was drunk.

All I saw was the words written on the paper: The courtesan takes off her clothes, and the playboy takes off his clothes too.

Helian Chi's head was buzzing. He grabbed the paper, crumpled it up quickly, and stuffed it into his pocket. "Come on, Fourth Brother will take you to buy some plum cakes."

"Fourth brother, give it back to me. I haven't finished writing it yet. Maybe I can--"

"Bullshit!" Helian Chi couldn't help it and cursed for the first time in his life. He stretched out a finger and poked Helian Yu's forehead, "What kind of mess is in your head!"

"Fourth brother, I know something else." Helian Yu slapped Helian Chi's hand away and recalled the poems he had read before, but there were only a few words, "I got it! Pick the flowers when they are ready to be picked, don't wait until there are no flowers left to pluck!"

Helian Chi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Whose back is it?"

Helian Yu: "..."

Is she so unbelievable? The heroine recited hundreds of poems and was not exposed as a fake, so why was she exposed as a fake after reciting just one sentence?

"I wrote it myself." Helian Yu glanced at him and straightened his back confidently, "Don't look down on me."

Helian Chi chuckled, "Okay, I believe you."

Helian Yu felt even more guilty. He tilted his head and stared at the beautiful King of Lights. "You'd better not believe it. I didn't write it."

Helian Chi's chest trembled slightly, and he laughed dumbly, "You want the King of Lights?"

"...Yeah." Helian Yu curled his lips, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and put his hands behind his back, "But it is destined not to belong to me."

It belongs to Liu Qiyue.

Helian Chi's eyes dimmed slightly, and he looked in the direction of Chang An. Chang An nodded respectfully at him, then disappeared into the crowd.

When Helian Yu was feeling melancholy, a clear female voice sounded.

“Let me try!”

After attracting everyone's attention, the woman stood with her hands behind her back, jumped onto the stage, and spoke one sentence at a time.

"Meeting a beautiful girl in a mass of silk and satin, the two of us are of the same mind, and our love is revealed with a single smile."

Step 2.

"Beside the willows and flowers, leaning on the fragrance and jade, playing with the moon and the wind."

Step 3.

"It is not enough to describe the joy of the phoenixes who are jealous of the favor, nor the praise of the flowers and the moon who stand tall and proud to compete with each other."

Step 4.

"The delicate duck green and mandarin duck red, the trembling rain and cloud traces."

Step 5.

"In the previous life, we were destined to be together, but in this life, we met by chance."

A word is made in five steps.

There was silence for a long time, followed by thunderous applause.

"What a literary talent, girl!"

Liu Qiyue's bright eyes were kind, and she nodded with curved lips, "Thank you so much."

Helian Chi's face was dark and thick. He held Helian Yu in his arms and said loudly, "A friend of mine doesn't want to reveal his name, and he only has one solitary word. I wonder if he can participate?"

The young steward raised his eyelids, knowing that Helian Chi was definitely not an ordinary person, and said with a smile, "Men, women, young and old, are treated equally!"

"Well then!" Helian Chi jumped up and landed on the stage, "Everyone listen carefully, there is only one friend."

"When flowers are ready to be picked, pick them now, don't wait until there are no flowers left to pluck."

Helian Yu's pupils trembled, staring at Helian Chi's face with wide eyes, and whispered: "Fourth brother, you are so shameless, you stole other people's poems!"

The one who was more shocked than Helian Yu was Liu Qiuyue.

Her body trembled and her face turned pale. Could it be that, besides her, there were other aliens in this world?

Wouldn't her plan to make a living through poetry fail? The young steward's face flushed and he clapped his hands in applause.

"I wonder who your friend is? This poem is missing a section. If you can fill it in, it will be a great song!"

Liu Qiuyue also stared at Helian Chi closely. She was eager to know who the other alien was.

Helian Chi held Helian Yu's little head and said to the young steward, "My friend likes leisure, I will discuss it with him when I have a chance."

The young steward was in a difficult position with Liu Qiuyue and Helian Chi.

A servant came forward and whispered something to the young steward.

The young steward was very happy. "Although your poem is not complete, my master is very pleased, so I give you this lantern! I wonder if you can sit with my master for a while?"

Helian Chi: "Lead the way."

Helian Yu was confused. He turned his head and looked at Liu Qiuyue who was outshined, and mourned for Helian Chi in silence.

Four years later, Liu Qiuyue and her group of men had another reason to kill Helian Chi.

While Helian Yu was thinking about this and that, Helian Chi had already brought her into the private room. She was put down and when she raised her eyes, she saw a young handsome man in a blue robe.

"I, Qiao Zhe, greet His Majesty the Fourth Prince."

The young man in blue robe bowed and saluted Helian Chi. Helian Chi gave him a little help and the young man in blue robe sat down.

"Fourth brother, do you know each other?"

Helian Yu blinked. She felt that there was something fishy going on as Helian Chi was able to obtain the lantern.

"Qiao Zhe, please ask the head of Fengge behind the scenes." Helian Chi introduced to Helian Yu, narrowing his eyes to satisfy her doubts, "Buy the King of Lanterns for 50,000 taels of silver, does Xiaoyuer like it?"

Helian Yu rushed to him: "..."

Sure enough, there is something fishy going on! Qiao Zhe looked at Helian Yu, surprised at Helian Chi's attitude towards her.

"Your Highness, could this be a princess in the palace? Judging from her age, could she be Princess Yongle?"

"No." Helian Chi gently pinched Helian Yu's little flower bud and said slowly, "The word Yongle is too boring."

Qiao Zhe was shocked, then lowered his eyes. Helian Chi's words were too presumptuous. He was pointing fingers at the title bestowed by His Majesty. Such ambition...

It's obvious!
