77. Give Me the Token to Leave the Palace

 

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

 

Suddenly, the atmosphere in Xuanzheng Palace became really intense. Every servant was trying their best to be invisible just to prevent themselves from being implicated by the emperor’s anger.

“Xuanyuan Linglong!”

His old voice was hoarse, so Helian Chacha was dragged back to the reality all of a sudden.

“I’m here!”

“I’m your father. You should show your respect to me!”

The emperor of Xuanyuan tried super hard to control his temper. Looking at Wang Bucai who was trying to hide his smile, and if the woman was not still useful to him, he would really…

“Huh?”

Helian Chacha was stunned as she now figured out the emperor of Xuanyuan was mad about this matter.

“I understood, Father. Since you would like to give me the entire treasury, I would have to give something back to you, my beloved Father. Please give me two days to prepare for it, Father.”

Helian Chacha smiled at him. Since the emperor of Xuanyuan was so nice to her, she would return something good to him for sure.

In a TV series, the leading actress made a pretty good wheelchair for that emperor in the drama.

“When did I say I want to give you the entire treasury? Xuanyuan Linglong, you shall not be so presumptuous in front of me!”

The emperor of Xuanyuan could feel the taste of blood in his throat while trembling, he only wanted to kill this woman in front of him.

“Your Majesty, you have just recovered from a serious illness, so it’s not a time for you to be so angry. Besides, I think the princess was just telling a joke. Don’t take it seriously.”

Wang Bucai answered him right away. In his view, he could leave a good impression on Helian Chacha, when the emperor of Xuanyuan already hated her.

“Do you mean that you won’t give me those things, Father?”

Helian Chacha was shocked. Since the emperor of Xuanyuan was about to get angry again, she said immediately,

“Okay, I know! Well, I think I’ve taken enough treasures already. You are very generous and I better not be too greedy. Thank you, Father!”

Helian Chacha put on a smiley face and changed her voice into that cute tone. She wouldn’t be so dumb to not know what the two in front of her were talking. But since she had already owned those treasures, they should never get them back.

“Princess! There are a lot of fine arts in the Heaven Pavilion. You sure your little Linglong Pavilion can take them all?”

Wang Bucai said again. He looked more powerful than both the emperor of Xuanyuan and Helian Chacha in front of the emperor.

Helian Chacha sneered secretly and then tried to win the support of the emperor of Xuanyuan directly.

“What are you talking about, Eunuch Wang? Father chose the Linglong Pavilion for me. And during the past years, I was out there drifting. Father loves me and he would like to give me the best. As for the space problem, to my understanding, it is none of your business, am I right, Eunuch Wang?”

Helian Chacha sounded very clear, and the palace maids looked quite terrified by her. In this imperial palace, no one dared to question Wang Bucai like that.

Wang Bucai looked a bit angry and when he tried to argue again, the emperor of Xuanyuan started talking.

“You’re right. I owe you a lot these years, and you deserve those things. But you should keep them well!”

It was the first time for him to see Wang Bucai getting challenged so badly, the emperor of Xuanyuan was super satisfied secretly. And he thought Helian Chacha was in fact still in his imperial palace of Xuanyuan, so those treasures were just stored in another place. And he could take them back once Helian Chacha got married in the future.

“Yes!”

Answering the two people forcefully, Wang Bucai looked really screwed.

“Father, I’ve been here for so long, yet I still haven’t seen how the palace looks like from the outside. Could you please give me a token? I really want to go out for a tour.”

Helian Chacha continued to say. Concubine Yun had sent someone to inform her that she was lacking manners of a princess, so she would send a teacher to train her.

Thinking of the rules in the ancient time, Helian Chacha decided to escape from them.

“Princess, Concubine Yun and His Majesty agreed yesterday that a teacher will be assigned to you in two days to teach you palace rules and manners. I think you may not have the time to go out.”

He was just screwed by her, so why would he let go of the opportunity to give her a hard time?

“Father, I know you love me the most! I’ve been traveling out there in the past years, pretty much penniless every day. I have been craving for some things for a really long time. Now I have your love, and I just want to make up for myself. Please just say yes, father.”

Helian Chacha held the leg of the emperor of Xuanyuan tightly and looked at him with her puppy eyes.

Looking at Helian Chacha’s face, the emperor of Xuanyuan felt his heart was falling apart as he knew exactly that Helian Chacha was lying to him.

But he could never say no to that face.

“Eunuch Wang, send someone to Xuanzheng Hall and give the princess her token. You shall give her another token so that she can have free access to the palace.”

The emperor of Xuanyuan didn’t dare to look at Helian Chacha, so he just ordered Wang Bucai in a cold voice.

“But Your Majesty…”

“If you call me that, then give it to the princess! I’m too tired. You two can just leave now.”

The emperor of Xuanyuan sneered, but Wang Bucai didn’t dare to say anything at all.

He did have a lot of power in his control, but what the emperor of Xuanyuan had just said was a warning. If he refuted what he had just said, he disobeyed the emperor. Wang Bucai didn’t think he could bear the consequence.

He said yes immediately. Being screwed by Helian Chacha two times in a row, Wang Bucai felt extremely angry.

“I didn’t even notice that you really know how to talk, princess!”

The emperor of Xuanyuan had already left, so Wang Bucai started to talk to Helian Chacha in a less polite way.

Leaning back a little bit, she didn’t really fear of this man, but she always felt a sense of coldness from Wang Bucai, and that really scared her.

“Eunuch, everything about the princess shall follow the rules set by His Majesty. Please don’t forget about your identity, Eunuch!”

Manyue stepped up and said proudly. She wished the more Wang Bucai hated Helian Chacha, the better the result would become.

“Hum, you are in no position to tell me what to do! Don’t tell me you still think you’re hiding well, I bet the imperial prosecutor won’t like that.”

She had never expected that Wang Bucai would be so sarcastic, so Helian Chacha put on a smile and then looked at Manyue from the corner of her eyes silently.

“I…”

“Your Highness, I will send your treasures to Linglong Pavilion myself later. I’m leaving now.”

He found that every time he met Helian Chacha, he would be so pissed off. He would like to see who would still support them when Feng Tian stepped down in a few days.

“Your Highness…”

Seeing that Wang Bucai had left, Manyue dragged Helian Chacha’s clothes, feeling so wronged. The dumb girl didn’t know Helian Chacha had already lost trust in her.

“Ouch, Manyue, hold on! I’m so scared! Oh my god!”

Helian Chacha pretended to be scared immediately as she tapped her chest repeatedly.

If she could go out of the palace, she could find some ways to contact that man.

The image of that ice-cold face appeared in her mind, and she could feel some warmth coming through her heart.
