Chapter 43 Lychee



Helian Yu was awakened by Chang An. He packed up his things, hugged a stack of rice paper, and ran to the study in the main courtyard to practice calligraphy.

Time leaps onto the paper, turning into ten large characters, horizontal and vertical.

At dusk, the palace sent a carriage to pick up Helian Yu. Chang Zuo escorted him to the palace gate and then stopped there.

Back at Fengyang Pavilion, the sweet, sugary fruity aroma mixed with the fragrance is complex and unique.

Xingchun came over quickly and told Helianyu what happened today: "Your Highness, a basin of red coral was delivered to Yangxin Palace this afternoon. His Majesty ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to wait for you to come back and pick out a few pieces of Shu brocade to make spring clothes. Princess Yongle also sent two sets of glass cups and said she would invite Your Highness to play when she had time."

As soon as Helian Yu returned to Fengyang Pavilion, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrived.

The person who came was Cao Guo, the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who brought a lot of people with him. The team was huge and was really not low-key.

"Your servant, Cao Guo from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, greets Princess Zhaoyang."

"Get up."

"Your Highness, these are the newly arrived Shu brocades and brocades from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as well as some bright silk satins, which are brought here for Your Highness to choose from."

Helian Yu went down the stairs and poked at the cloth sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It had a smooth texture and bright colors.

Helian Yu selected some of his favorites, and Eunuch Cao ordered someone to write them down. Then a young eunuch came out carrying a tray.

"Your Highness, this is Tianmeixiang from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. His Majesty specially rewarded Eunuch Chang'an for his service to Your Highness."

Chang An stepped forward, thanked him, and took the Tian Meixiang.

After a lot of hard work, the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs finally left.

Helian Yu collapsed on the couch, "I'm so tired!"

Xingchun squeezed her shoulders and said, "Your Highness has worked hard."

In the evening, after dinner, Chang An coaxed Helian Yu to take medicine and urged her to do the Five Animal Exercises.

As usual, one who dances well and diligently will be chosen and rewarded with ten taels of silver.

Helian Yu took a bath in the hot spring, returned to the inner hall, and lay directly on the bed, not wanting to move at all.

The blue diary was flashing beside her hand. Helian Yu could only pick up the pen and write something on it.

[Third, Jiangnan is holding an imperial examination, so we have to go. The crown prince is in the open, and the master is in the dark. All the officials in Jiangnan who cheated in the imperial examination were brought down! However, the imperial examination has something to do with the second prince's background. On the surface, he is the child of the imperial concubine, but in fact, the imperial concubine was physically damaged in her early years and could not have children. She borrowed her sister's belly, seduced Helian Su, and asked her sister to sleep with her, and then gave birth to the second prince.] [Speaking of the second prince, I have to mention that he looks so good! Chivalrous! Noble! Full of tension! He and the chivalrous woman kissing must be super exciting! I kissed so hard that I was confused~] [Woo, I want to lie on the roof and watch the second prince and the chivalrous woman kissing!] [Points have been distributed to the backstage, and the host has completed the first diary after returning, and received rewards: Random musical instrument proficiency. ]

Helian Yu was excited. If she was proficient in random instruments, then she didn't need to learn it. She swiped a few times on the system screen and found the random instrument - suona.

Helian Yu: "..."

I've never heard of any princess who is proficient in suona.

The most important thing is, she can't use suona to accompany her master when he plays the piano, right?

Is she going to accompany him or send him off? Tasteless!

Helian Yu let out a cry, cast aside all distracting thoughts, and fell into a sound sleep.

at this time……

The Second Prince’s Mansion.

Helian Sheng paced in the mansion, his face flushed.

He did have feelings for the chivalrous woman, whose name was Dugu Yijun. She was a woman of the underworld, lively in nature, and always willing to stand up for the weak.

At first, he concealed his identity with the sincere intention of making friends, but later he gradually developed feelings for her.

But he was a prince, and there was a lot between them.

She loved freedom and refused to accept the constraints of ethics and morality, declaring that "she would rather be a commoner's wife than a concubine of a rich family."

He was born a prince, and his status gave him honor, but also constrained his nature. He couldn't even give her any status.

As written in the diary, if one of them died and the other went crazy in the end, it would probably be the best outcome.

The more Helian Sheng thought about it, the more frustrated he felt. He took a cup of cold tea and drank it, which slightly alleviated his irritability.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Helian Su looked at the green card, his eyes swept across the first few concubines, "Retreat."

"Tomorrow, summon the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and the Fourth Prince to the palace."

"I obey your order."

For two days, Helian Yu lived a peaceful and comfortable life, and his body gradually became stronger. He finally reduced the Five Animal Exercises from twice a day to once a day.

At that time, the general election began.

Helian Yu wanted to join in the fun, so he looked for Liu Qiuyue, and hesitated whether to trap her into the harem.

On Shunzhenmen Road.

Helian Yu was followed by Chang'an, Xingchun and Cidong, who hid skillfully behind the auspicious jar to avoid the eunuchs who were sending the concubines for selection.

"Your Highness, Lord Chang Zuo is still waiting for you in Fengyang Pavilion. Why don't we go back earlier?" Chang An asked in a low voice.

"No." Helian Yu refused without thinking, "Master won't beat me anyway."

Helian Yu seized the opportunity and slipped into Shunzhen Gate. Behind him, Chang An glanced at Xingchun Cidong, and the three of them followed.

Eunuch Kang outside Shunzhen Gate recognized Chang'an and was about to speak, but Chang'an signaled him to be quiet and took Xingchun Cidong to catch up with Helian Yu.

Helian Yu ran fast. He just slipped into the hall and was about to find a corner to hide, but he bumped into the arms of the Fourth Prince.

"Fourth brother?"

Helian Yu glared, "Why are you here? Are you here to spy on Helian Su's selection of concubines?"

Helian Chi raised his hand to cover her mouth and smiled, "Xiao Yu'er, you must be careful with your words and actions. You can't call your father's name casually. Peeping? Not really. Your father asked the crown prince, the second brother, and me to select two concubines to enter the palace."

"Will it be inappropriate?" Helian Yu was shocked. "How can a father and son be selected together?"

Helian Chi patted Helian Yu's hair bun and said, "Father's words are as good as gold. What he said is appropriate."

Helian Yu curled his lips.

No wonder Helian Chi usurped the throne, he knew all too well the benefits of being an emperor! "Then what are you hiding here for?" Helian Yu slapped away Helian Chi's hand that was trying to mess with her head, "Are you really not peeking at the concubines?"

"Nonsense." Helian Chi raised his hand and pinched the soft flesh beside Helian Yu's cheek, "Of course I'm going to catch you here."

"What?"

Helian Chi picked up Helian Yu, walked out of the corner and headed out of the hall.

"My father guessed that you would come to join in the fun, so he ordered us to catch you. Whoever catches you will be rewarded with fifty lychees this summer."

"You're so stingy." Helian Yu threw herself into his arms, "If you let me go, I'll give you plenty of lychees in the summer!"

"Xiao Yu'er, there are one hundred lychee trees in Nanyun, and they produce a total of four to five hundred fruits. They are offered to the Buddha, given to concubines, and given to ministers. Even my father doesn't have many left."

"Hiss..." Helian Yu was shocked and patted Helian Chi on the shoulder, "How pitiful! Unlike me, I have a master and can eat whatever I want~"

Even without a master, she still has the system. As long as she has points, she can buy anything.

Helian Chi: "..."

All the little magical powers of the national teacher were used for her fun.

Helian Chi quickened his pace and carried Helian Yu into the side hall.

"Meet Father, Imperial Concubine, Crown Prince, and Second Brother."

Helian Chi put Helian Yu on the ground. While Helian Yu was paying his respects, he quietly moved out of the hall.

Helian Yu's face wrinkled into a ball. She was afraid of the Imperial Concubine! The Imperial Concubine was a master of palace fighting. She had been forcing the Second Prince to fight for the throne. Although she failed, the Imperial Concubine eventually became the Queen Mother! She must have a lot of tricks! She was afraid!

It’s better not to join in the fun and go to the Imperial Master’s Mansion to study and practice calligraphy!

Helian Su said coldly: "Zhaoyang."
