Chapter 534 Extra: Lu Qionghua and He Lianji (Part 3)
Lu Qionghua turned the handle of the phonograph.
"Madam Shufei and the Fifth Princess..."
Du Siwei's voice came out from that thing intermittently.
Although the voice was very faint, if you listened carefully, you could still tell it was Du Siwei's voice.
Everyone present changed their expression.
What on earth is in the Sixth Princess's arms that can actually make a sound?
Du Siwei turned pale with fright.
"No, it's impossible."
She muttered to herself, and her legs and feet began to tremble.
"Did you hear it clearly? If not, listen to it again." Lu Qionghua smiled and turned the phonograph again, playing the sentence he had just heard.
"No, don't let it go! It's a monster, it's a monster!" Du Siwei rushed forward and tried to snatch the phonograph from Lu Qionghua's hand.
Helian Ji took a step forward and kicked her away.
Everyone looked at him in astonishment. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was too unkind to women.
"She attempted to assassinate the princess, and I protected her. What's wrong with that?" Helian Ji argued.
Du Siwei was really frightened this time, and she burst into tears.
If you say something bad about the princess, at most you will be scolded and put in solitary confinement.
But assassinating the princess would implicate her family members.
She cried and said, "I didn't mean to kill the princess. I was just afraid that the monster that emits things might hurt the princess."
"This is not a monster, it's a phonograph." Lu Qionghua explained calmly.
"This was developed by Master Qu and his team. It has been updated to the third generation and is used by both the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War."
"How amazing." Everyone looked in admiration.
"How is this done?" someone couldn't help but ask.
"This must be a royal secret, don't ask." Another person hurriedly hinted to him not to speak.
"In fact, the principle is quite simple, and it involves knowledge of physics." Lu Qionghua's words left everyone silent again.
What is physics?
"But the most important thing now is that you lost, so you should keep your promise." Lu Qionghua looked down at Du Siwei who was kneeling on the ground.
Du Siwei's tears kept falling. She felt so regretful. Why did she say bad things about the Sixth Princess just for the sake of momentary pleasure?
"Do you want to break the contract?" Helian Ji narrowed his eyes.
"I..." Du Siwei wanted to refuse, but she didn't dare.
The evidence is solid; the Sixth Princess will definitely not let her go.
"I'll go right away. But I'm not the only one saying those bad things. Shouldn't she come with me?" She turned her head and looked at Huo Minmin.
Huo Minmin, who was pretending to be unconscious, clenched her fists subconsciously when she heard this.
She treated Du Siwei as a good sister, but now she is dragging her down with her to be embarrassed.
"Oh, it turns out that the hands of an unconscious person can still move." Helian Ji shouted, and everyone's eyes fell on Huo Minmin's hands.
Huo Minmin's whole body was stiff, and for a moment she didn't know whether to let go or continue to clench her fist.
"My young lady has been prone to fainting since she was a child. She is not pretending." Huo Minmin's maid had to come out to defend her young lady.
"Oh, so that's it? I have experience." Helian Ji squatted down and pinched Huo Minmin's philtrum hard.
He pinched Huo Minmin's philtrum so hard that it turned red and almost broke the skin.
"Ah" Huo Minmin was in so much pain that she couldn't continue pretending to be unconscious and immediately got up from the ground.
"You're awake? You're welcome." Helian Ji stepped back with a smile.
Huo Minmin even wanted to kill someone.
She looked at Helian Ji with murderous intent.
"Since you're awake, you all should go together." Lu Qionghua gave the order.
"I won't go. I didn't agree to the bet." Huo Minmin refused decisively.
"Weren't you dizzy just now? How do you still know about the bet?" Lu Qionghua and Helian Ji asked in unison.
The two didn't expect that they would say exactly the same thing, and they looked at each other in surprise.
"I..." Huo Minmin was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't breathe. She was really dizzy.
Du Siwei looked at Feng Yu'an for help. Today was his grandmother's birthday banquet and there were so many guests. It would be too embarrassing for her to go and shout.
As the master, he can come out and say a few words to smooth things over. The Sixth Princess shouldn't be too picky.
The Prince of Zhenbei Marquis understood that her eyes were pleading. He glanced at Lu Qionghua and then at Helian Ji.
I want to persuade him, but I dare not.
Well, I can’t afford to offend either family, so let Du Siwei be embarrassed.
Du Siwei had no choice but to embarrass herself.
After the farce ended, Helian Ji called Lu Qionghua.
"This thing in your hand is very interesting, can you let me see it?"
"Sure." Lu Qionghua agreed generously.
She didn't expect that Helian Ji would speak up for her when he heard others saying bad things about her.
After Helian Ji took it, he fiddled with it for a while, not quite understanding how to use it. Considering that he had just cooperated with her in dealing with those two people, Lu Qionghua took the initiative to tell him how to use it.
She demonstrated it.
After Helian Ji learned it, he shouted into the radio speaker: "Helian Ji is the best! Helian Ji is the best!"
Lu Qionghua: ...
Suddenly I regretted teaching him.
After shouting, Helian Ji shook the handle, and his voice really came out from the phonograph.
"It's done!"
He looked at Lu Qionghua in surprise, but saw a look of slight disgust on her face.
"What does that expression mean?" Helian Ji was dissatisfied. "I just helped you so much, do you have to cross the river and then destroy the bridge? Do you think you will abandon me now that you see me?"
"What do you mean by crossing the river and then destroying the bridge? I didn't say anything, but you said it yourself and you blame me. You also said that Helian Ji is the best and Helian Ji is the most powerful. I think Helian Ji is the stupidest." Lu Qionghua complained.
The peace that had just been maintained for an incense stick of time was broken, and the two began to quarrel with each other again.
"I understand. No one praises you, so you are jealous of me."
"I don't want to bother with you." Lu Qionghua was about to leave with the phonograph in his arms.
"Wait, why are you bringing this to the banquet? Did you prepare it in advance?" Helian Ji was very confused.
"None of your business." Lu Qionghua was too lazy to explain to him and left with the phonograph.
She had always been interested in phonographs, so she kept an eye on the Mo family and asked them to send her new ones as soon as they had one.
Today, the Mo family gave her this improved third-generation phonograph, so she took it and planned to study with her classmate, Feng Yue, the third lady of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion, what the difference is between this improved phonograph and the previous one.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yue was pulled by the old lady and couldn't get out, so she simply sat by the lake with her phonograph, trying to record some sounds of the wind.
Unexpectedly, she ran into Du Siwei and Huo Minmin, who were complaining about their classmates in the academy. She didn't want to pay attention to them, but she didn't expect them to start talking about her mother.
So she quietly moved closer, intending to record the conversation.
Unexpectedly, Helian Ji suddenly appeared.
"Don't go, can you sell me one of these things? I want to take it back to show it to my father, mother and concubine."
Lu Qionghua: ...
She had never seen anyone so shameless!
Were they just arguing? How come he is smiling and buying things from her now?
