Chapter 370: The Fierce Collaboration Between His Highness And Wei Wei

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Lord Li, who was the head of the entire Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs, now looked nothing like his usually proud and conceited self. Instead, he nervously and continuously wiped his forehead that was drenched with sweat.

Looking at how perturbed Lord Li was, the prison guards were puzzled as they promptly unlocked the gate.

Hurriedly, Lord Li entered the prison and bowed politely at the two of them who were engrossed in their chatter, “This humble one was too ignorant to recognize the both of you, hence was being disrespectful to you. Now that the misunderstandings have been resolved, you can now leave the prison.”

Helian Wei Wei replied with no word as she put on a faint grin.

Meanwhile, Little Seven lay comfortably in Helian Wei Wei’s arms with no intention to make his move. Apparently, he was determined to stay until his Imperial Grandfather personally arrived at the prison.

Seeing that none of them had the intention to leave, Lord Li got more anxious and his legs began to tremble. He looked at Helian Wei Wei and entreated, “Miss Helian. No, sorry. Princess consort, I swear that your arrest has nothing to do with this humble one. I have no idea why did my imprudent subordinates capture you? Can you please convince the Seventh Prince to leave the prison?”

“Haha. I thought Lord Li failed to recognize Little Seven and me because you have been addressing us so casually,” Helian Wei Wei smiled in a purportedly courteous manner.

Lord Li was at a loss of words. Uneasily, he paced back and forth like a headless chicken while his eyes almost brimmed with tears.

At this moment, they heard a loud and ringing voice that came from the gate of the prison.

“The Retired Emperor is here!”

A bright yellow silhouette was approaching them steadily and gracefully.

Lord Li’s face was immediately painted in fear. He quickly greeted the Retired Emperor with a kowtow as he spoke, “This humble one welcomes the arrival of the Retired Emperor. May the Retired Emperor live a thousand times for a thousand years!”

Eunuch Sun, who was following right behind the Retired Emperor, walked right past him, not bothering to look at him at all.

Retired Emperor, who always took care of his appearance, arrived at the prison with messy hair. His heart wrenched tremendously when his gaze landed on his grandson, whose face was now covered in dust and elbow was skinned.

Eunuch Sun gave an anguished cry as tears pooled in the corner of his eyes, “Are you hurt, Seventh Prince? Tell me who did this to you. We’re in the Capital. Yet, you’re captured and badly injured! Imagine if you’re brought to a place far from the Capital, you would possibly have lost your life! Our Seventh Prince is still a kid. How can they be so cruel to you…”

Little Bald Head pouted as he looked at the Retired Emperor, “Imperial Grandfather, I did not hit anyone this round. I was obediently practicing martial arts with Third Aunt when this group of people barged into our place, menacingly accusing us of offending an influential person.”

Fuming, the Retired Emperor put on an intimidating expression. He had the urge to execute all of them who touched his grandson even the slightest. He pulled the boy into his arms and patted the boy’s back as he yelled furiously at Lord Li who was still kneeling behind him, “Find out the identity of the man who captured my grandson. If you fail, I’ll kill you immediately!”

Lord Li was petrified and quickly dashed for the exit.

When he reached the door, he bumped into Baili Jia Jue who had just arrived.

“Third… Third Prince,” Lord Li greeted Baili Jia Jue. He was quivering and his fingers curled. His instinct told him that he should run away as soon as possible.

Baili Jia Jue entered the prison with an unhurried pace. His beautiful eyes were filled with ice, so frightening that it could send chills down one’s spine. He wore an eerie and ferocious expression on his handsome face as he spoke with his eyes beamed of the utmost ruthlessness, “I advise you to act fast and honest. Don’t ever consider getting a random person to bear the responsibilities. If I find out that you secretly give this information to anyone else, the entire Li Family, all the 138 of you, will be annihilated. Do you understand?”

Upon listening to that, Lord Li understood that this case was more complicated than he expected and the Third Prince was determined to find out the truth!

Relieved, he wiped off his cold sweat and answered succinctly, “Noted. This humble one will do as I’m told. I will never share the information with anyone. Your Highness can trust me with this task! I’ll make sure to do my job flawlessly!”

However, he had totally no idea who was the true culprit. Deep down, he was cursing the culprit for leaving him this untangling snafu to resolve.

“Imperial Grandfather, luckily Third Aunt was there,” Inside the prison, Little Bald Head covered his cheeks with his hands and complained, “I would have been abused if Third Aunt wasn’t with me.”

Following right behind Baili Jia Jue, Nangong Lie overheard the Seventh Prince’s conversation with the Retired Empire. He twitched his face awkwardly while he threw a side-glance at Baili Jia Jue and asked, “Do you really believe that this boy can be abused?”

“Why not?” Baili Jia Jue looked at him nonchalantly and answered in an unvarying tone, “My seventh brother is still a kid.”

Indeed, Little Seven is still a kid. But, he’s a kid who can defeat the magical beast with his bare hands! Other than you, the Third Prince, who else is capable of bullying him! Nangong Lie thought to himself.

“Both of you are undoubtedly brothers,” Nangong Lie laughed devilishly. Both the brothers were extremely cunning. He secretly adored the man who was fearless enough to play with the mane of the lion.

The older the Retired Emperor got, the more he cared about his grandson.

It was well known that the Third Prince had always been an aloof man and it was difficult for the Retired Emperor to get close to him.

But, the Little Seventh Prince had a completely different personality. Other than his hobby of going around and hitting the others heedlessly, he was an innocent and amiable boy.

The Retired Emperor was only willing to send him to the White Academy because he did not want to put the Seventh Prince in danger by letting him stay in the palace.

The Seventh Prince had always been taken care of meticulously and had never been treated unfairly. However, he was now suddenly put into jail.

It was only sensible for the Retired Emperor to be enraged.

Moreover, he was the one who ordered Helian Wei Wei to forge the weapons discreetly. Yesterday, he was informed that they were almost finished with the project. But today, he was told that they were caught.

“Who’s the audacious man!” The Retired Emperor turned to look at Baili Jia Jue as he continued, “Ah Jue, whoever the felon is, seize him or her with no mercy!”

“Yes,” Baili Jia Jue gave an expressionless response. All this while, his gaze was fixed on Helian Wei Wei. After he was reassured that she was not injured, his gaze finally turned gentle, “Come here.”

Naturally, Helian Wei Wei would not defy him in front of the Retired Emperor. Moreover, she was positive that the Retired Emperor’s presence at the jail shortly after Little Seven and her were apprehended was the result of this man’s work.

Seemingly, His Highness shared the same mind with her when they had to fight against their enemies…

Li Meng headed to the General’s residence gleefully after he had directed the drama at the prison.

Before this, Li Meng hardly had the chance to enter the main hall. However, today was an exception.

Su Yan Mo assigned this task to him and had been waiting for him to report. If he could successfully obtain some clues, the woman would be in serious trouble.

Li Meng savored the superior tea which he rarely had the chance to taste as he narrated how he perfectly carried out the task. He spoke arrogantly as though he had taken revenge on behalf of Madam Su…
