"Oldest Sister!" Helian Jiao Er knew the situation was bad once she saw the blood jade and hurriedly wanted to engage in sophistry.
Wei Wei cut her short with a cold smile, "You as well! You and Third Sister are so close that you're indivisible. You knew early on that the poisonous bee was raised by her, yet you still took part in framing me this way, wanting the Principal to expel me! I'd like to turn around and ask the two of you, you two say again and again that I bully you, yet why do you insist on joining hands to lead me down a path of death?"
Once the sound of her voice dropped, the truth of the matter also already came out as well!
The compound suddenly contained a bit of an uproar. Everybody's eyes, one after another, looked over at Helian Mei and Helian Jiao Er.
"No, it wasn't raised by me! Second Sister, hurry and tell everyone that poisonous bee wasn't raised by me. Hurry up and say it!" Helian Mei's still sluggish body once again trembled uncontrollably. She grabbed Helian Jiao Er's hand and didn't stop shaking it, wanting her to open her mouth and speak.
However, the current Helian Jiao Er certainly couldn't even protect herself. How could she help defend Helian Mei.
This move of Wei Wei's had simply caused her to be seen as a malicious girl in front of everybody.
It's not like that, it shouldn't be like that!
"No….."
Helian Jiao Er had just started to open her mouth when Tusu Feng's eyes coldly looked over. Things had already progressed to this point, yet she still dared to try to rationalize.
"White Academy has consistently refused to accept students of low moral character. In regards to Helian Mei and Helian Jiao Er, they are expelled to leave down the mountain and will not be able to enter the academy forever!"
Such an ice cold voice made everyone involuntarily shocked numb, the previously gentle and kindly Principal obviously had become angry!
This was what being White Academy's Principal was like. No matter how prestigious of a background the other party came from, under the circ.u.mstances, he still had the power to make the other party thoroughly disappear from White Academy without the need to notify any of the high officials!
Having heard that, Helian Jiao Er's entire body became limp. Within her pair of eyes were tears that made people feel sorry for her. Forbidden from entering the academy forever; wouldn't it be better to just directly kill her.
She raised her head and looked at Murong Chang Feng, making use of her expression to earnestly request him to save her.
After all, only Murong Chang Feng could make Wei Wei, that low life, change her mind.
As long as he gave that s.l.u.t a bit of sweetness, this situation might still have a chance to turn around!
Murong Chang Feng also didn't want to let Helian Jiao Er go. After all, he'd just introduced her to his own Master, and adding to that her own innate aptitude, there might be no limit to her future.
He didn't want to, with wide open eyes, see Helian Jiao Er suffer like this!
"Chang Feng earnestly requests Principal to allow me to give the Helian sisters an opportunity and let them stay."
His Murong Prince's Palace was not the same as other clans. Even though it didn't share the Royal last name, it nevertheless, was a central branch of the Royal family. Although the Principal wasn't afraid of anything, he ought to still give him some face.
Seeing this, the teachers also joined in one by one to plead for leniency, "Yes, Principal. These Helian sisters are still young. Why don't you forgive them!"
Tusu Feng's eyebrows started to furrow slightly and said a bit casually, "The one who was framed was not me. How about making a plea to the one who was framed."
Everyone was stupefied and only then turned to look over at Wei Wei, who was cold and indifferent from beginning to end.
Murong Chang Feng thought for a bit, then offered, "Everyone has misunderstood you this time. As far as that letter of annulment, it was just me being impetuous for a time. Our engagement was made through the Retired Emperor's appointment and wouldn't be that simple to invalidate. This time, if you could forgive them, I could regard what happened before as nothing having happened. I'll marry you officially in one month."
His voice sounded very good. It was clear and cool along with being low and deep, matching well with his opulent appearance and deep eyes which probably could make any girl become infatuated.
In any case, his words already intimately acknowledged, acknowledged Wei Wei as his future lord's concubine.
Everyone who was standing here knew that everything Wei Wei had done today was done for the sake of it being enough to obtain Murong Chang Feng's interest.
Within those ten years, time and time again, she'd wracked her brains in order find a way to be able to happily marry him.
To this end, she had suffered to no small extent and experienced no small amount of shame.
They had all seen it.
Except that Murong Chang Feng simply didn't even want to look at her, much less say he wanted to marry her, and he actually postponed the marriage again and again.
This time, it's all fine now. Lord Murong finally made the promise himself. One month from now, he would marry her.
How could she still focus on continuing the indictment? Instead, she should be laughing to the point of not being able to close her lips!
As expected.
Wei Wei lightly laughed out loud and was saying words to Murong Chang Feng which seemed like she would grant him whatever he wanted, "Having me forgive them is also possible….."
Suddenly, Baili Jia Jue, whose back was leaning against a tree trunk, slightly stiffened, the ancient tree reaching almost to the sky swayed and dropped tens of leaves.
Murong Chang Feng's lips naturally curved into a smile. He already knew that it was just for his sake that she had done so much.
Maybe he could try to treat her a little better from now on.
After all, he also didn't want to lose that gaze which had always been watching him attentively.
A few days ago, he even changed because of her and became somewhat fidgety. Even though he didn't have any feelings for her, yet when that adoring and bashful gaze had been suppressed and disappeared afterwards, his entire being then felt like there was something wrong with it.
Thinking of it now, she was probably holding in her feelings in order to let go of him and even said something to the effect of if he wanted to, then he could just leave. It simply was just her deceiving herself.
This was a bit contrary to what one might expect and was somewhat cute.
It's just like how when they were younger, she had flung off her own clothes when she became irritated from training her qi, her fair and delicate, tender little face expressing an adorable naughtiness.
The more he thought, the more Murong Chang Feng felt that it was possible and couldn't help but laugh out loud as he turned to stroll over to Wei Wei.
Baili Jia Jue's back, which leaned on the tree trunk, again stiffened, the arc of his mouth slowly became colder. Under his sleeves, fingers slightly stiffened and seemed like he was currently enduring something patiently…..
Chapter 41 - I Want To Break Off The Engagement
As far as Wei Wei's answer was concerned, it was absolutely within everyone's expectation. After all, a remarkable first-class bachelor like Murong Chang Feng, with his family's standing as well as his good looks, would be a rare find even within the entire capital. Moreover, she had always wanted to marry him. Therefore, everybody didn't have anything to be surprised about as they extended a hand to pull Helian Jiao Er up.
Except that right at this moment, Wei Wei opened her mouth again. She stood at the center of the compound without any makeup, sleeves fluttering. Her pair of eyes looked straight at Murong Chang Feng as she spoke, pausing after each word, "However, I want to break off the engagement."
Those few placid and serene words were like thunder that suddenly cut a hole within the crowd of people.
Everybody was
stunned and one after another stopped their movements, finding it difficult to believe as they looked over towards Wei Wei.Their eyes were filled with stupefaction.
Wei Wei was just as before, indifferent in appearance, "Second Sister kept insisting that I've resented her because of you. Since it's like that, in the future, Lord also won't need to move surreptitiously anymore. As long as you agree to break off the engagement, I naturally will also help you guys fulfill your d.e.s.i.r.e."
Murong Chang Feng's jaw clenched slightly and his body also stiffened subsequently. His pair of eyes unwaveringly stared at her, concealing waves of anger. This girl suddenly really wanted to…..
"Seeing that Lord is not speaking, it should be because you've agreed." Wei Wei, facing his eyes, laughed mockingly.
If it weren't for Murong Chang Feng's words today, she still wouldn't have known that this marriage contract was so troublesome.
A marriage that was appointed by the Retired Emperor; without a special reason, there would've been in fact no way to get rid off it.
Since Murong Chang Feng wanted to plead with her on behalf of his Helian Jiao Er, then she has to make him take out a bit of payment.
A single word, 'forgive', in exchange for her future freedom was worth it!
"You...good, great! Wei Wei, how great you really are!" Murong Chang Feng waved his long sleeves, the side of his face was ice cold, as if he was a sculpture that had just emerged from the freezing ground.
He, Murong Chang Feng, when did he become a groom who was sent to the door of the wedding chapel, only to be locked outside?
In addition, she suddenly even wanted to push him over to another woman!
Feeling indignant was his first reaction. If it wasn't for so many people looking from all sides, he really would choke her to death with his own hands!
The one who liked him clearly was her, wasn't it?
And now also pushing him away…..
Argh, did this girl really feel that he wouldn't deal with her!
Wei Wei knitted her long, shapely eyebrows a bit. She hadn't imagined that Murong Chang Feng would have this kind of attitude. The one who didn't want to get married clearly should've been him.
She certainly hadn't forgotten that if it weren't for his bill of divorcement, Helian Jiao Er and Helian Mei also wouldn't have had the guts to skin her alive and thrown in a river.
Even though he wasn't the criminal, nevertheless, he had never helped her even once.
From beginning to end, he'd only coldly looked on from the side, detesting her to the extreme.
This kind of man, even if he was a rare find in the world, to her, he was not worth having!
"Eh?" Nangong Lie, who'd just finished the divination exam, extended his hand towards his chin, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, "Surprisingly, it's Wei Wei who brought forth the issue of breaking off the marriage. There's something going on, there's definitely something going on!"
"Ah Jue, could it be that you're not even a bit curious? Why would Wei Wei do this?" Nangong Lie seemed lost in thought as he inclined his head a bit to one side, "Based on my many years of experience, she must be loosening the reigns to grasp them better! That's right, it's loosening the reigns to grasp them better! One really couldn't tell that this 'little kitten' likes Murong Chang Feng so much she doesn't even want her reputation because of him…."
After that, Nangong Lie stopped his speaking momentarily. It wasn't for any other reason than because that guy's pair of eyes were sinking then emerging, like they were bobbing in the freezing cold ice. He slightly turned his body to the side, as if he's listening to him speak again. A hand casually inserted inside his pocket. The other hand lightly held the white porcelain teacup. He clearly appeared indolent, however, when he moved, it absolutely could be interpreted as dangerous to the highest degree…..
Nangong Lie lowered his head and softly coughed.
Baili Jia Jue glanced at him while a thick fog covered his eyes. His finger fastened on top of the teacup, and one couldn't tell if he was happy or angry, "Too noisy."
Only two single words caused Nangong Lie to stiffen, "Hey, hey, hey, you should come back and tell me clearly who was too noisy! Seeing that you haven't experienced love before, this brother analyzed things for your benefit…..speak clearly first, you can't move your hand! I can talk it out with you!"
Baili Jia Jue didn't even bother to give him the slightest bit of attention, grasped the teacup, lightly used force…..
Nangong Lie stroked the bridge of his nose a bit and planned to follow him when he heard a 'bang!' sound.
The tree behind him seemed as if it received some heavy damage and fell with a loud crash while stirring up a thin layer of dust.
Having seen at this, Nangong Lie didn't dare to follow after him, turned his back around and began to be puzzled. Who could it be, that finally provoked a certain highness…..
Unlike them, Helian Jiao Er's pair of water like eyes glared extremely fiercely at Wei Wei and was going to support Helian Mei to descend and leave.
At that instant, she heard Wei Wei laugh lightly and start to speak, "My sisters seemed to have forgotten something."
"Helian Wei Wei, I'm warning you, don't overdo it!" Helian Mei's usual temperament was in fact fiery. Enduring until now was already very difficult for her. Right now, any of Wei Wei's words could potentially ignite her temper.
Wei Wei looked at her with thin lips turned down in disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, "Do you know why I waited until the very end before taking out your blood jade? It's because I wanted to find out how far you'd go to frame me. I really didn't think that after the matter had already been examined so clearly, sister could still be so bold and assured, as if justice was still on your side. Who was it that gave you a foundation for your status? Was it grandfather, or was it those teachers who spoke out for you? And I, Wei Wei, will also speak my words here today. Even though grandfather had passed away and the Helian family also changed hands while I am on my own and alone, don't anybody think, however, that after framing me, they would be able to leave without any words of apology! Even if behind that person there were countless numbers of teachers to support them, or there were countless powers to shelter them, I would still demand that they return to me the justice that I'm due!"
Her voice was clear and limpid, penetrating the ear while reverberating many turns within the academy without subsiding for a long time!
Pah! Pah! Pah! It seemed like everybody's face was being slapped.
Not merely Helian Mei and Helian Jiao Er, but also those slanderous teachers!
Freezing winds burst forth as Wei Wei held her head high. Her dark black hair flowing willfully and her long sleeves blown by the wind made sounds as they fluttered.
As Grandmaster observed this scene, the whites of his eyes turned slightly red, while a sincerely smiling expression surfaced again.
Also well said, "Return to me the justice that I'm due!'
During these many years, exactly how many grievances had his dear disciple suffered?
Tusu Feng looked at the Wei Wei standing in front of him. Even within the Royal palace, he had never come across a girl quite like Wei Wei.
Her firmness was like her mother's.
Yet she was even more tenacious and clear headed than that other person.
Originally, he had felt pity for the Helian clan and thought that the things which belonged to the Venerable Sir would be handed over to others on a silver platter just like this.
Tusu Feng kindly curved his thin lips upward, maybe now, this little lass could be the sole agent for change among them…..
Chapter 42 - Acknowledged Master And Disciple
"What support or not support them, Wei Wei, hey, these words of yours were spoken such that even us old men were also reprimanded as well." In the distance, a pure white body's shadow came over.
Helian Wei Wei evaded the voice and looked over. Her pupils suddenly constricted. Chilly air started forming from within her body, mak
ing Yuan Ming, who was concealed in the ancient book, also shiver continually.
Who was it exactly, who could cause such a big change in this girl's mood?
"Prime Minister Su." One after another, all of the teachers turned to look at him.
"Grandfather." Helian Jiao Er also called out in an aggrieved voice, then turned her body around, while crying until she became a person made of tears.
Su Jia Cheng looked at his filial granddaughter who had been bullied to this extent. Immediately, poisonous thoughts formed in his eyes overfilling them, while he smilingly faced Wei Wei and said, "These two sisters of yours are still young, exactly at the age when they fool around, yet are unable to differentiate between what is serious and what is not. It's difficult for them to avoid making mistakes. You're older than both of them. If you'd said earlier that the poisonous bee wasn't yours, how could all of us old men have misunderstood you. Principal, what do you say?"
Tusu Feng didn't say anything.
However, Grandmaster's pair of eyes opened wide, obviously seeming like he was getting angry.
Wei Wei gripped her own trembling hand tightly.
Truly worthy of being the current prime minister, what a scary mouth.
That year, if it weren't for this mouth, maybe her mother would've been able to endure.
In order to elevate his own daughter's status from a concubine to a main wife, this person with the heart of a beast, Su Jia Cheng, bribed the two Chang and Li families. He asked them to insist at court that Mother was evil and vicious and filled with jealousy, incapable of tolerating others.
It was from that day forward that mother became the subject of ridicule during tea time chats within the entire capital.
