The Anarchic Consort c1-1376
Page 189
Helian Wei Wei smiled, with coldness in her eyes, she said with a flat tone, "Miss Yun, you and I are well aware of the truth. There is no way to end it once the act has gone overboard."
After Yun Biluo heard these words, her eyes turned red and her tears were about to fall.
However, since the matter had developed to this point, those beneath the stage seemed to have guessed what had happened.
Of course, some were still ignorant, who thought that Yun Biluo was quite aggrieved. They thought such a misunderstanding occurred due to miscommunication.
However, no matter how she played as the victim, it was futile.
Helian Wei Wei deserved to win!
Helian Jiao Er knew that all the publicity would be taken by Helian Wei Wei if she continued to be silent. So, she faked a smile and said, "Sister, since you have known that you were the first place in the appearance evaluation, why don't you show your face and your serial number then? You made us worry for such a long time."
Her words were obviously a trap. No matter how Helian Wei Wei answered, it would still taint her victory today.
That was Helian Jiao Er's idea.
However, Helian Wei Wei smiled. "Why did I not show my face and serial number? Naturally, I have my own reasons. I realized that since the day my appearance evaluation results came out, someone has been trying to stop me from coming to the selection today. They even wanted to finish me directly. I only caught a few people. Maybe it's a good time to bring them up and ask them who their master is, and who ordered them to check on me and harm me! Little Seven!"
"Third Aunt, I am here!" The Little Seventh Prince emerged from the crowd with a serious face, holding a meat bun in one hand, and a baton in another, driving several court servants onto the stage.
Not only Helian Jiao Er, but even Lord Liao was fl.u.s.tered when he saw them. He stood up and said, "Insolent bunch, how dare you trouble the princess consort? Somebody! Drag them away and give them a furious beating!"
"Hold on," Helian Wei Wei stopped him, and continued with an unhurried tone, "Lord Liao, I haven't even asked them yet, what are you anxious about?"
For unknown reasons, Liao Wuliang felt that the aura coming out from this girl at that moment was exactly the same as the Third Prince that he was afraid of getting into trouble with.
At this moment, Baili Jia Jue was just sitting in his seat with one hand supporting his jaw. He looked at the scene nonchalantly and playfully.
His prey was playing again.
When she was finished playing, he would deal with those who were required to be handled...
"Elder Sister!" Helian Jiao Er rushed up in a hurry. If they really spilled her beans in front of so many people, especially in front of her once-beloved Third Prince, then the image that she had worked long and hard for in the Capital would vanish as well. After she called out her elder sister, she softened her voice, "Why do you keep such people? They are all people who waste the government's money but do not do work!"
"Oh, so you also know that they are the court's servants." Helian Wei Wei looked at Helian Jiao Er with her hands on her shoulders. "Since you are so smart, you should notice that the clothes they wear are exactly the same as Lord Liao's men. Furthermore, I know that you just met with a few of them yesterday. How could you pretend that you do not know them today?"
Helian Jiao Er's eyes shook violently. "Big sister, what are you saying? I don't understand at all!"
"You don't understand?" Helian Wei Wei laughed and snapped her fingers with her outstretched left hand.
Swoosh!
Instantly, a mercenary dressed in a black shirt was kneeling in front of her.
"Tell them what you see in these two days."
"Yes." The mercenary wearing a half-face mask said with a low voice, "Since the young master got her number, Helian Jiao Er has been asking these people to look for her whereabouts. She even thought that my young master was just a village girl, so she commanded them to take her out on sight."
Everyone heard it and was suddenly in an uproar!
Helian Wei Wei looked indifferently at Helian Jiao Er who stood opposite her. "Just being prettier than you was enough reason for you to kill someone. Madam Su has really raised a good daughter."
"You…" Helian Jiao Er took a deep breath. She knew that she could not confront her directly, and so tears started falling down from her pretty eyes. "Elder sister, you think about it carefully, who are these people? They are all servants of the court. Even if I am the second young lady of the General's Residence, I still wouldn't be able to command these servants!."
Helian Wei Wei raised a brow. "Are you sure you can't command them? But someone else could, though. What do you think? Lord Liao?"
"Well… I don't know about this matter." Liao Wuliang's forehead was overflowing with his sweat. "Princess Consort, this is the nature of servants. They pretend to obey but rebel secretly. Sometimes, I don't even know what they have done behind my back."
Helian Wei Wei smiled. "In other words, you are saying this thing has nothing to do with you and Helian Jiao Er. Did the servants act on their own? Lord Liao, are you taking me for a fool? Why exactly did you allow Helian Jiao Er to command your people? Hmm… I think your wife needs to know the reason…"
Chapter 427 - Slapping Jiao Er's Face
While Helian Wei Wei was speaking, she did not take a glance at the two individuals, who had changed their facial expressions in a split second. She laid her eyes down and stroked Little Seven's head, saying, "Please ask Madam Liao to come over, I want to give her a gift and ask her to figure out a person."
"Save His Highness a trip!" A deep, strong female voice was heard, it carried some distinctive aggressiveness of a middle-aged woman. "Princess Consort, please continue, I'm listening."
Helian Wei Wei raised her eyes and looked toward that figure, she spoke in a dull tone, "Since Madam Liao is here, then I would just tell everything that I've been wanting to say. I have several letters here, and in them were written clearly what Liao Wuliang and Helian Jiao Er have done within these two days. Both of them had fallen in love and are in a lovey-dovey relationship."
As Helian Wei Wei had mentioned that, the others understood it thoroughly.
They laid their eyes on Helian Jiao Er, full of disdainful and taunting feelings.
"Who could have imagined that Helian Jiao Er is this kind of person! Oh, god! That Liao Wuliang is at least ten years older than her right?"
"He is older by more than ten years and doesn't forget that Liao and Helian Guang Yao were studying together under the same master. Helian Jiao Er had to address Liao Wuliang as 'uncle'. I didn't expect that these two could be in a relationship. It's so ridiculous! I've never heard of such an indecent woman!"
"That guy is really dodgy!"
Madam Liao heard the conversations all around her, and she could barely tolerate it anymore as she had a bad temper, to begin with. At first, she was in a relationship with Liao Wuliang because she liked him and her family was influential, that was how they got together.
Liao Wuliang gained his current status only with the assistance of her family in all these years.
She did not expect that he would do this kind of dirty tricks!
While Madam Liao thought of this, her body shook severely. She swooped toward Jiao Er without even having a look at the letters on Helian Wei Wei's hand. She tugged her hair and pulled it hard. "Do you have any sense of shame? Is this the way your mother taught you? Did she teach you to simply flirt with any guys?"
"Ouch! It hurts! Please let go of your hand!" All Helian Jiao Er wanted now was to look for a hole and bury herself inside. She did not expect Helian Wei Wei would know about Liao Wuliang and her, much less being announced this way.
An enormous wave of panic flooded her.
What should she do after this?
How would she get married in the future?
Even if she was the reincarnation of the Phoenix Girl, who would dare to marry her?
<
br /> As she thought of this, Helian Jiao Er struggled harder. She fought back without hesitation, "I asked you to let go of me, can't you hear that? Helian Wei Wei, you accused me wrongly! You are a rumormonger and have troubled me! You are jealous of me! Just pull off this shrew and let's confront fair and square!"
"Who did you refer to as a shrew? You cheap b*tch!" When Madam Liao heard Jiao Er's insult, she increased the strength of her hand, pulling off her hair tuft by tuft!
Helian Jiao Er was in great pain, so she used all of her martial Qi and kicked Madam Liao onto the ground.
Since the beginning, Helian Wei Wei was just watching them with a dull expression, with coldness in her eyes.
Lord Liao was standing in the middle, he had been pulling one and blocking the other. His officer uniform had been rumpled, even his hat was slanted to one side.
He had been wanting to help Madam Liao up, but was pushed aside by her!
He took a heavy step backward, and he felt as if there was a black shadow covering him.
The shadow felt gravely oppressive, he knew who it was without having to turn his head around.
"Liao Wuliang, you've done such a good deed."
There were only a few words, and there was still a trace of a smile on his lips.
The evil and ominous aura that emerged from the male's eyes had frightened him and made him kneel on the ground.
Bang! Bang! Bang! He kowtowed on the ground.
"Your… Your Highness, please forgive me! I don't mean it! I didn't know that she was the princess consort!" As he spoke, his fingers pointed at Helian Jiao Er, "It was all her fault. She is the one who seduced me! I'm just tempted at that moment..."
Liao Wuliang did not manage to finish his words, because Helian Jiao Er had come over to confront him. "You are such an old and disgusting man. You said I'm the one who has tempted you? You were the one who has been staring at me up and down! If it wasn't to get rid of the others, do you think I would flirt with you?"
Helian Jiao Er had started shooting from her lips with no regard for what she said. She had completely lost the look of the Capital's most gifted scholar. The make-up on her delicate face had been smeared, and her hair was in a mess as if she was a lunatic.
Baili Jia Jue was standing still there and the cloak on his body flapped as it was blown by the wind. He was in a calm and elegant stance, glancing at the man and women who were grappling at each other. Then, he ordered coldly, "Take them away and execute them all."
Execute?
Execute them all?
Upon hearing these words, not only Helian Jiao Er and Liao Wuliang were frozen, but even Madam Liao has stopped crying. She wiped her tears off and crawled toward Baili Jia Jue. "Your Highness, even though my husband was wrong, but he didn't know that she was the princess consort. If he did, he definitely would not do that. The one who wanted to hurt the princess consort is that bi*ch, my husband is just a victim of her!"
"So, you mean you can harm any beauty that wasn't a princess consort?" Baili Jia Jue took a gaze at the corner of his clothes crumpled by Madam Liao. His long eyebrows frowned, the temperature within his eyes dropped even further. "Take them away and execute them!"
Madam Liao was stunned and flopped onto the ground. As she saw Liao Wuliang and the bi*ch Helian Jiao Er being taken away together, she was shell-shocked.
Helian Jiao Er was struggling with all her limbs while crying out loudly. "I want to meet my mother, I want to meet my grandfather! His Highness, you can't execute me! You will regret it! Don't forget, I am the Phoenix Girl's reincarnation! If I'm dead, the entire War Dragon Empire would vanish. Are you going to be an heir who destroys his own kingdom?"
Baili Jia Jue brushed the dust off his coat slowly as he commanded steadily. He raised his eyes slightly as if he was born with an indifference that despised all living things. There was only one word in his merciless voice, "Execute."
The other people also thought that Helian Jiao Er deserved to die!
A girl like this was the Phoenix Girl's reincarnation? That would be even more embarrassing!
However, Madam Liao could not bear to see her husband being killed. She noticed that begging Baili Jia Jue did not work, so she crawled toward Helian Wei Wei. "Princess Consort, you are a reasonable person, please, my husband was merely acting on impulse..."
Chapter 428 - Wei Wei Courted A 'Wife'!
"Madam Liao." Helian Wei Wei interrupted her with her gentle voice and said, "Liao Wuliang makes use of his privilege as an imperial official to set up on the beauty. Based on this evidence alone, he should be beheaded. This is not a matter that could be controlled. Besides..." Helian Wei Wei made a slight pause upon saying that and continued in clear words, "What did you say when your bestie, Su Yan Mo stole my mother's husband back then? You didn't bother whether my mother was severely injured and insisted to bring her to the General's residence, pointing at her and asking her to leave my father. Madam Liao, you have been living carefreely for so many years. You always refer to my mother as a jealous woman whenever you talk about her. God is watching how people live. God has been watching how you and Su Yan Mo set up on my mother. The karma is not forthcoming because the time has not arrived yet. Your karma is here now, just enjoy it. Or else, you would be wasting my big present for you."
Madam Liao took on a ghastly expression as she listened to Helian Wei Wei. She looked annoyed, or more like she was embarrassed. She felt anger welling up in her c.h.e.s.t, drops of blood trickled from the corners of her mouth.
Now only she understood that everything Helian Wei Wei did was for the sole purpose of seeking revenge!
She wanted to treat them the same way they treated her mother back then!
Karma!
All these are really karma!
Madam Liao fell back to the ground heavily and remained silent, as though she had gone mad. She stared blankly into the distance point, crying and laughing at the same time.
Eunuch Sun directly asked somebody to send her back to the Liao Manor, so that His Highness and the princess consort would not have to look at such whammy.
Everyone was in shock after the farce.
It was not merely because of Heilian Wei Wei's beauty and talent.
But also because of the fact that everything they believed in the past was actually a sheer fiction.
The master of Helian Family, who was treated as a jealous woman, was actually the most miserable one.
And Madam Liao...
In their eyes, Madam Liao always appeared as a woman who fought for justice for all people.
To their surprise, she was not really fighting for justice, but intending to cover up the fault of the people on her side by throwing mud at somebody else first.
Someone was taciturn at this moment.
Especially when they saw the girl who was standing against the wind on the platform.
Yet, there were people who did not care about it at all. For instance, Yun Biluo.
She was very clever to know that there was no use in saying anything more under these circ.u.mstances, perhaps she might even get her fingers burnt if she meddled in it.
Hence, she lowered her eyesight timely, reducing her sense of presence to the lowest but she clenched her hands tighter and tighter...
The plan went smoothly at first.
Now, Helian Wei Wei had made a clean sweep.
She did not even have a chance to be the secondary consort anymore.
"I announce, the person elected for the time being is the Third Princess Consort, Helian Wei Wei!" Eunuch Sun cried out excitedly.
Which meant, His Highness would not have to get any secondary consort!
Princess consort was awesome after all!
Eunuch Sun was thinking happily but he noticed that there was unknown chaos in the crowd as soon as he finished his sentence.
"What is that?"
"Are those roses???"
"So many? Ten carts of roses?!"
"Wait! Does it seem like there are n
ot only roses? There are… weapons as well?"
While the crowd was still wondering what had happened, Helian Wei Wei took a leap and moved her palm slightly, bringing all the winds under her control.
As a light breeze blew upon her long robe, the rose petals flew up into the sky.
The petals rose.
Her left hand laid inside the pocket of her long robe languidly and her right hand was holding an enormous bouquet of roses. Her maroon hair brushed against her pretty little face evenly, and there were earrings shining in silver rays on her delicate earlobes.
Baili Jia Jue looked at her with eyebrows raised, the corners of his lips curved upward into an alluring yet perplexed smile.
Helian Wei Wei looked at him and grinned.
Then!
She kneeled down handsomely on the ground.
All the petals were moving according to her movements, it looked as though it was raining flowers, flourishing and dazzling.
The crowd was stunned by the scene before them, they could touch the beautiful rose petals as long as they reached out their hands. The fragrance of the flowers was everywhere, as though they were in the realm of dream.
The main point is!
Why would the princess consort hold a big bouquet of roses and kneel down for the Third Prince?
Eunuch Sun was unable to make sense of her action and shot a glance at the Little Seventh Prince, wishing that his master could tell him something.
However!
What Seventh Prince cared about from the beginning till now was just food!
Moreover, now he was like a little tiger waiting for a great timing to take action. He was looking around to see if there were any petals near him and thinking about eating them!
Out of all the people around the world, only Master Hei knew what Helian Wei Wei was thinking about right now.
