Tyrant's Consort Too Arrogant

Liu Zhufeng had previously ordered that on the day of the wedding, everyone who was staring at Helan Xue would be withdrawn. Now, it seemed that those words were indeed effective.

No one knew where Helan Xue had gone to.

Actually, Yi Ren and Liu Zhufeng had more or less wronged Helan Xue. Although he was late, he still went.

When Yi Ren disappeared around the corner of the sedan, she jumped down from above.

He followed the stream of people and squeezed a few steps forward. There were so many people that he could not see the road in front of him clearly. He only felt that the red sedan chair was vague and indistinct.

Taking a step closer, he saw Liu Zhufeng walking over to talk to Yi Ren.

It looked very intimate.

Helan Xue stopped in his tracks once again.

The stream of people was growing increasingly turbulent. In front of them was the ancestral temple.

There was a sea of people, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that there was a sea of people.

Helan Xue watched from afar, seeing that Yi Ren was supported out by the servant. Liu Zhufeng walked over, grabbed Yi Ren's shoulder, and walked in with her.

He lowered his head again and whispered something in her ear, a smile on his face.

Yi Ren did not show any signs of forcing or difficulty.

Everything was normal, this was a normal wedding, no one was forced.

He was excluded.

Helan Xue suddenly felt a strong sense of loss, just like how he felt when he watched Rong Xiu and Helan Chun's wedding many years ago.

The cycle repeated, and he also had his own pride. Why did it always repeat this way, again and again without any reason!

Helan Xue pursed his lips, he did not know when, but he had bit his lower lip and blood was flowing out. With his handsome face and fresh red blood, the people standing beside Helan Xue couldn't help but look away from the wedding ceremony, curious about him.

Helan Xue seemed to have sensed something, he watched as Yi Ren and Liu Zhufeng finished their greetings.

Then, he turned around angrily.

After walking just two steps, a man suddenly squeezed in front of him and handed him a blueprint, "You are Helan Xue?"

"Yes." Helan Xue was too lazy to think too much about it.

"This is what the Madam asked me to give to you. Young Master He Lan can draw the Wandering Garden from this map, but you can only go out and never come back again." The man said something like a voice box, then turned and squeezed back into the crowd.

Helan Xue was startled for a while. He did not know who the Madam was, and was unable to guess the person's intentions. He took a look at the map and saw that the house in the picture was in a clear path, it did not look like a fake.

Helan Xue was suspicious for a long time before he suddenly had an idea.

That lady, is she Yi Ren?

Yi Ren sent him out of the garden? But why? Afraid that he would cause trouble and affect her happy life?

— But Rong Xiu, what did Rong Xiu do to him back then?

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. The more he thought that everything was possible. In short, he did not understand women.

But even if Yi Ren really did that, Helan Xue wouldn't be able to hate her so much because of her.

If he couldn't taste the stench of blood between his lips, he would think that he was numb.

He brought the ball of paper to his palm, and the ball of paper was reduced to bits of paper.

Yi Jian was very worried.

In the letter to Feng Jiu, he recounted Helan Xue's recent performance in detail: Ever since Wandering Garden had returned, he had only lightly said "her eyes are ready", and then, he absolutely did not mention anything about Yi Ren. There were many silences, or more often, there were even times when he was puzzled.

And from Wandering Garden, came a strange rumor: The Wandering Garden Young Lord Liu Zhufeng was married, the target, seemed to be Yi Ren.

Asking Helan Xue what he didn't want to say, but Yi Jian didn't dare to ask too much either.

Helan Qin also could not count on it. Ever since Helan Xue came out from the Wandering Garden, Feng Qi asked him if he had seen Lu Chuan.

Helan Xue naturally did not see the truth, he stood for a while, then suddenly rushed to the front of the forest and shouted loudly: "Lu Chuan, if you have the ability, watch me die here!"

After saying that, she rushed in recklessly.

The changes in the forest were unpredictable. In an instant, her figure was obscured by the forest.

Helan Qin was surprised at first, but just as he was about to pull Feng Qi out, he saw the green robe in the forest moving, a figure that was like a meteor suddenly flashed past the treetops, and disappeared in the direction of Feng Qi.

"Great General, is that Lu Chuan?" Yi Jian originally wanted to come over and hold Helan Qin, but seeing this, he asked suspiciously.

Helan Qin stopped in his tracks, suddenly feeling that he had done everything he needed to do. What was left was Feng Qi and Lu Chuan's matter – or perhaps, it had never been related to him.

Helan Qin waited outside the forest for three days, but no news came out from Feng Qi. On the fourth day, they called Suiyuan back.

There were more people with Suiyuan now, so Pei Ruochen's suspicious and assertive attitude had obviously forced many officials to leave. Some of the officials who had been investigated and suspected of having gone to the Suiyuan in anger, had even brought some of their citizens with them to migrate to this place.

Feng Jiu also rushed over from Fallen Phoenix Mountain Villa. He had assisted Helan Xue in arranging the residences and livelihoods of those people. There had always been a lot of things happening, and they had always been very busy.

Helan Xue spent almost all of his time on political affairs, arranging their accommodation and inspecting their temporary homes. Whenever it was rainy day, he would personally go down to inspect them.

Helan Qin was in charge of military affairs, so naturally, he transferred the internal affairs of Suiyuan to Helan Xue. The army's salary was also given to him.

Helan Xue's prestige in Suiyuan quickly rose, and was not even inferior to Helan Qin's.

After working day and night for more than ten days, Feng Jiu finally picked a free day to chat with Helan Xue.

"Does Your Highness really think that …" Feng Jiu's impression of Yi Ren had always been good, and he did not really believe that Yi Ren would change her mind at the last minute.

"Afterwards, I didn't think like that either." Helan Xue said calmly: "I also had my own considerations for Yi Ren to remain in the Wandering Garden. What happened next was too dangerous and because of my negligence, she had already suffered an eye injury. Although Liu Zhufeng's actions are strange, he is not a person who would be forced into a corner. With him taking care of Yi Ren, I am at ease. "

Feng Jiu curled his lips: Could it be that Helan Xue is just finding a free place to raise Yi Ren for a while?

"But if Your Highness doesn't explain it clearly to Yi Ren, if she misunderstands …" Feng Jiu asked worriedly.

"Firstly, the situation at that time was unacceptable, and I had indeed misunderstood her at that time. Secondly, if I were to tell you this, given Yi Ren's personality, she would definitely not stay peacefully in the Wandering Garden. " Helan Xue smiled faintly, his smile like willow leaves, light and elegant, "So, I want to fetch Yi Ren back as soon as possible, so we can finish what we are doing here."

"Is Your Highness really planning to stand up for me?" Feng Jiu was overjoyed as he suppressed his emotions and asked.

"I had originally wanted to help Pei Ruochen out, but based on his actions now, he has disappointed me greatly." Helan Xue's expression changed as he said seriously.

Feng Jiu remained silent.

The prosperity of Pei Ruochen only blossomed for a brief moment, and very quickly, the bad root of Qian Zheng's character was shown.

All the officials in the imperial court were fawning on Pei Ruochen, Pei Ruochen's most recent trusted aide was also an unfathomable, temperamental person, all the officials in the imperial court were people who did not seek for the benefit of the people in the imperial court.

The counterattack from the Tianyi Pavilion had precisely revealed all of these shortcomings.

There was no place for grievances. That kind of scene was actually even more chaotic than the late stage of Helan Chun's rule.

Every day, Suiyuan would receive many refugees from the heavens.

Helan Xue did not reject any of them. Not only did he arrange for them to be in a suitable position according to their abilities, he also encouraged the soldiers to plant the land with the refugees and clear out the desert side of the desert. Together with Feng Jiu, they went deeper into the desert, looking for suitable plants.

Helan Xue believed that someone was secretly helping him.

Just when he couldn't find it over and over again, he suddenly found a bag of grass seeds at the entrance one day. A few days after he attempted to plant the seed on the desert, green buds began to sprout.

But who exactly was that person, Helan Xue could not understand no matter how much he thought about it.

He didn't have much time to think about that person. Another big matter had occurred in the Heavenly Court.

— — Back then when Pei Ruochen cut off the land to welcome the Yan Kingdom, he let the Yan Kingdom control the diligent army of the Sky Dynasty happen.

The reason behind the incident was said to be because a thief accidentally went to the Flame Palace and stole the secret letter from Yan Han's room.

No matter how bad the excuse was, the anger of the people was aroused.

Pei Ruochen naturally did not believe that Yan Han was the one who did it, because interfering with the internal affairs of the Tian Dynasty was something shameful to the people of the Tian Dynasty. The relationship between the Yan Kingdom and the Emperor was unprecedented.

Then who revealed this letter?

That night, Liu Xi returned to the Marquis Xia and drank wine with a cup in hand.

After the war of attrition with the Yan Kingdom had stopped for a year, they were once again in a precarious situation.

Suiyuan had to be expressed very quickly: To remain neutral, or to help one of them.

Maintaining neutrality was not possible, the Suiyuan could not sit still and watch the Yan Kingdom invading the land of the heavens, and helping Pei Ruochen was also not realistic either — almost everyone was looking at the attitude of the Suiyuan, it had become a strength that both sides had to fight for.

In this situation, Pei Ruochen officially invited Helan Xue.

Helan Xue hesitated for a while before deciding to keep his appointment.

This was the first time they had not met after the Tianyi Pavilion incident.

When Helan Xue returned to the capital, other than Yi Jian, he did not bring any troops with him. Naturally, Pei Ruochen did not dare to touch him this time either.

They saw it in the main hall of the Imperial Palace.

Yi Lin stood at the side for a while with Helan Tian‘ang, before walking over and taking Tian'ang over. She hugged him and shook him a little, the less than one year old Helan Tian‘ang looked extremely cute and snow white, just that pair of pitch black eyes were nothing like a child's. She looked at Helan Xue deeply and did not cry at all. Helan Xue's heart softened, and she couldn't resist using his fingers to touch his smooth and greasy cheeks.

Helan Chun could really put down such a cute son.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Pei Ruochen instructed Yi Lin to take the little emperor away. Then, he turned around, looked at Helan Xue, and asked very naturally, "How is Yi Ren?"

"She's fine, but she's not in Suiyuan." Helan Xue did not reprimand him for being rude, and said indifferently: "You sent Eleven over, and I believe that it's something that has nothing to do with you. Perhaps I'm the one who is extreme towards the matter of Tianyi Pavilion."

"It's just a fuse. In fact, that day will come sooner or later between us." Pei Ruochen's voice was very calm, without the slightest bit of sharpness.

Helan Xue did not reply. He looked up at the lofty roof beam, looked at the eight coiling dragon pillars, and then looked at Pei Ruochen who was standing in the middle of the hall alone.

It was still elegant and graceful, but something was gone forever. His pair of jade-like eyes were filled with deep-seated loneliness and haughtiness — he had become a dictator who didn't need anyone. Perhaps he was standing too high to find his way.

"Ruochen, I once thought of you as my friend." Helan Xue said softly.
