The Anarchic Consort c1-1376
Page 179
The Third Prince saw that her face was dirty, so he threw her a handkerchief so that she could wipe her own face.
Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless.
Hence, she awkwardly wiped her face… while shouldering the cannon.
Helian Wei Wei pouted helplessly while she wiped her face.
Baili Jia Jue looked at her and took her hand in his. His thin lips curved up; his dark pupils were at their most charming sight. With his s.e.xy voice, he asked, "What were you expecting, hmm?"
"Well, erm..."
Chapter 404 - His Highness' Warm Embrace
The man suddenly stooped down, his kiss plugged up Helian Wei Wei's words.
Fresh breath with a faint orchid-like fragrance abruptly filled her mouth. Helian Wei Wei experienced her first brain hypoxia in her life. While her brain was feeling fuzzy, she could only hear the gasps around her and the dry, steady beat of the man's heart.
Her entire sky was spinning. Baili Jia Jue adjusted to her strength, grabbing her wrist in one hand while pressing her head forward from the back of her head, deepening the kiss as if no one was watching.
Everyone else was stunned silly. They could never have imagined the noble and pure Third Prince would kiss anyone.
Yun Biluo face immediately went pale, her fingers almost digging into the flesh of her palms. Her usually gentle and harmless eyes were filled with jealousy!
A cool breeze exploded on her tongue. Helian Wei Wei wanted to retreat, but her tongue was swept gently by his, before being twirled around and vacuumed.
Helian Wei Wei shuddered like a toasted shrimp, curling in his embrace. Her fingers were shaking but she could not move them. The rustling between their clothes seemed too loud beside her ears.
However, Baili Jia Jue did not stop there, but went at it harder, as if trying to suck out all the air in her.
Helian Wei Wei's legs slowly lost their strength, turning into a puddle. Because of Baili Jia Jue's all-around attack, she had nowhere to run.
She did not know when she dropped the gun in her hand. When she realized it, her fingers were clutching at his clothes. Her eyes were red as she rested on his shoulder while panting furiously.
Baili Jia Jue extended his arms and brought her into her embrace. His fingers slid down her back. He smelled like sandalwood.
"If you simply run around again, I'll break your claws."
Threatening words, but there was not a speck of threat in them. Rather, the deep s.e.xy voice conveyed a patient gentleness.
She felt like her ears were almost being i.m.p.r.e.g.n.a.t.ed...
The Little Seventh Prince looked at this scene seriously. In his heart, he was determined to kiss his future wife on the battlefield one day.
Don't ask him why! That's how headstrong he is!
Every single one from Helian Wei Wei's Hidden Army was staring at each other dumbfoundedly.
Emperor Murong, however, wanted to take this chance to kill Baili Jia Jue once and for all. Just as he took up a soldier's bow, he was blown away by the Seventh Prince!
Ka-boom!
Although he was a talented fighter, he could not take such a heavy blow. His entire body was sent flying up high before being slammed heavily onto the ground!
"My, my..." The Little Seventh Prince carried the sniping cannon while he walked over calmly. Then, he raised his feet and stepped on Emperor Murong's body.
Emperor Murong felt an intense pain in his c.h.e.s.t, and blood spurted out like a fountain from his mouth.
When they saw this, the soldiers put down their weapons, and kneeled on the floor, shouting, "Spare us, Your Highness!"
Helian Wei Wei looked on with satisfaction. Since she caused this trouble for Baili Jia Jue, it was natural that she should solve it.
However…
It seemed like she went over the top.
Helian Wei Wei curled her thin lips; her beautiful eyebrows were raised.
So what if she did?
This was exactly how she wanted to tell the world.
The Helian clan is rising again!
In the billowing smoke, Baili Jia Jue held her while he sat at the highest point, looking at the tens of thousands of soldiers beneath his feet. His expression was calm in his noble eyes. His black hair and the white robe were intertwined as if a deity had descended.
Helian Wei Wei rested against him lazily, her long and narrow eyes looking at him dreamily.
Looking at the two, one could think of a phrase.
If you lose this land, then I will rise again with you; if we win, then we will rule the world together.
Hearing the shout of cheers around them, a carefully planned coup was ended abruptly.
Emperor Murong and Prince Murong were jailed. Baili Jia Jue had his reasons to keep them alive. Helian Wei Wei knew that he wanted to bring them to the imperial court.
If they were executed now, only the Murong family would suffer.
But in the imperial court, they could pluck out the armies that did not send help one by one, to interrogate and execute their masters.
There would be a huge shift of power in the dynasty.
The empress was losing power too quickly, so quick that it was impossible to react. Suddenly, the powerful ministers on her side were now replaced by the Third Prince's men.
The four influential families were starting to panic...
"Master." When the matters were almost finished, Fire Qilin showed his original form and kneeled on the floor. "Should the ambush we planted around the academy stay and stand by or leave with the princess consort's Hidden Army?" he inquired respectfully.
"Leave." Baili Jia Jue adjusted his sleeves slowly.
"Yes, master." With a sway of his body, Fire Qilin disappeared right after receiving his master's order.
Under the twilight, Helian Wei Wei looked at Baili Jia Jue's overly handsome face. "You had hidden troops in the Green Dragon Mountain?"
"Yup," Baili Jia Jue did not plan to hide it from her.
"How many?" Helian Wei Wei skipped a beat.
"Thirty thousand," he replied in a nonchalant manner as usual.
If Helian Wei Wei did not fly the flag of the Hidden Army previously, she would have been targeted by this man's troops.
"You brought your troops to Green Dragon Mountain?" she asked testingly. After all, if news of a prince bringing out troops from the imperial city were spread out, some might accuse him of treason.
Baili Jia Jue replied coolly, "Just a few servants."
Helian Wei Wei was left speechless.
He had 30,000, not 3,000 troops.
She had never seen a master that treated 30,000 troops like servants...
While Baili Jia Jue answered her questions, he could still dish out commands to the shadow guards, "Tell everybody this, 'The Prince does not want a single soul to ever spread the rumor about the Hidden Army appearing in the White Academy'."
Chapter 405 - A Tempting Kiss
The Hidden Army looked at each other. What rumor? They really did appear!
They did not expect their young master would agree to the Third Prince's statement.
Of course, Helian Wei Wei would agree. Now was not the right time for her to reveal her control of the Hidden Army as not all of her weapons were ready. She would be noticed if she were too high profile.
"Come here," Baili Jia Jue spoke once more, his fleeting, calm tone made his emotions rather difficult to grasp.
Helian Wei Wei raised her brows and entered the room after he did. Just right after she closed the door and turned around, she was trapped between him and the door frame, "Tell me, who let you go?"
"I didn't just leave, I went to get reinforcements," Helian Wei Wei smiled smugly before continuing, "How else could I save the beauty as a hero?"
Baili Jia Jue pushed against her, "Hero? You?"
"Wasn't I cool just now?" Helian Wei Wei yawned lazily. She looked straight at Baili Jia Jue, wanting to walk out of his shadow. "To be frank, don't you have t
o thank me for saving you this time?"
Baili Jia Jue hummed and pulled her nearer to him. He slowly lowered his body closer to her, their eyes locked together. The gentle black ink colored eyes were like a deep, mesmerizing lake that could tempt people into jumping in.
Helian Wei Wei was a little uncomfortable with the stare by him. The moment she was about to open her mouth, the warmth on her lips snatched away the words she was about to say.
The hand which was on her cheeks was now holding her chin. Her lips were licked, her teeth invaded, swirling in her mouth. It was unbelievable that a person as cold as him could feel so warm. From his mouth to his body, and the hand that circled behind her, unleashing an unfamiliar ripple in the bottom of her heart.
"Baili Jia Jue… you can't..." She tried to move her lips, but the swirling tongue turned the words she forced out into mumbles until they melted between their lips. The humid heat and burning breath were chipping her resistance away, leaving her defenseless against Baili Jia Jue's kiss.
"Can't? Hmm?" Baili Jia Jue moved slightly. As if to rebut her, he did not even allow her to catch a gasp of breath before devouring her lips once more. His fingers slid into her clothes. He then said with his deep, slightly hoarse voice, "But that's not what your body is saying."
It might have been because of his slightly cold fingers, or his words, Helian Wei Wei felt her legs turning into jelly, powerlessly enduring his kiss in his embrace. Her consciousness was starting to float elsewhere...
"Jue, listen to me…"
A sudden loud bang from outside woke both of them up from their indulgence.
Helian Wei Wei quickly pushed herself away. Seeing Tu Sufeng, she rubbed her lips with the back of her hand, her breath was still unstable. "I'm going out first, so you guys can talk."
Baili Jia Jue was not even a little ashamed of being caught red-handed. He adjusted his collar before shifting his gaze onto Su Tufeng. "Please knock the door the next time you come in."
Su Tufeng smiled sheepishly, "I thought a clean freak that's afraid of even touching someone else like you would never be enlightened. But who could have thought...? Heh… how was it? Was it exciting doing it in the academy?"
"Not bad," Baili Jia Jue sat on the princess consort's chair with his legs crossed. Then he scoffed, "Not like someone who is forever alone like you could understand, though."
Tu Sufeng felt a shot on his knees. His lips twitched, This cold fella is as venomous as always.
"What do you plan to do with Murong?" Tu Sufeng sat down to talk about business.
Baili Jia Jue's lips were curved upward, but the smile in his eyes faded away. "Uproot them, of course. It's time to show an example to those who do not like to listen, let them rest in peace."
The rest of them really did because they did not expect Baili Jia Jue to survive.
Sadly, they were on the unlucky side.
The people on the Fifth Prince's side were almost exterminated.
When the queen's brother started an uprising, the queen had also run out of luck. Her crown was taken away and she was locked away in a dungeon, never to see the sun again.
When Helian Guang Yao saw her, there was only remorse in his heart. He frowned looking at the spy that kneeled before him. "Who was the one who sent reinforcements for Third Prince, allowing him to escape?"
"I do not know, perhaps, being cautious, he set up a trap beforehand?" the guard replied.
"Then Murong was too careless this time." When Helian Guang Yao heard that it was a trap, he did not ask further, but looked up, and said, "The clan meeting is about to begin. From today onward, watch the madam closely. Do not let her realize anything, I still have a use for the Su family."
"Yes." The spy looked down. He understood that the madam must not know anything about the master's plan to prevent any disruption.
Helian Guang Yao stood up and was going to leave. "Another thing, send some gifts to the head of each family. Remind them to vote for me during the Clan Meeting."
"As commanded." Then, the spy raised his face again. "But there is a stubborn old guy that I cannot convince. He seemed determined to vote for the young lady."
"I know who you are talking about, ignore him. He's just an old comrade of my father. Now that his leg is broken, he can't even stand firm. There will be 11 votes in the clan meeting. He alone cannot change the situation. Moreover, I have found someone who can contact the Hidden Army." Helian Guang Yao sneered.
"The Hidden Army?" The spy looked up, his eyes were beaming with admiration. "Have you got into contact with the Hidden Army, master?"
Helian Guang Yao's face was full of pride. "Yes, I am contacting them. To be absolutely safe, I want the b*stard to lose all intention to wrestle against me for power!"
"Excellent, master!" the spy praised him loudly.
Helian Guang Yao smiled and waved his sleeves confidently...
The night fell.
The wind was cool, and the stars were shining.
Helian Wei Wei looked at the paper in her hand and put on an evil smile. "Tell Chi Yan this, since he wanted the Hidden Army so badly, give him one," she told the messenger.
"Yes, Young Master." When the messenger saw her smile, he knew that she was scheming something. Without another word, he leaped out of the White Academy with the message.
After finishing her work, Helian Wei Wei decided to see the progress of the things she had asked Heize to prepare.
Right when she opened the door, she saw a pair of indifferent and narrow eyes, "Where to?"
"Just taking a walk." Helian Wei Wei felt like it was not a good decision to look for Heize today, hence she quietly stepped back.
Baili Jia Jue smiled, his eyes turned dark brown, "Oh, really?"
"Yup," Helian Wei Wei smiled, her expression was sincere.
Baili Jia Jue leaned on the door jamb lazily, his eyes caught the packing on her hands, "I didn't know you have to bring this to take a walk."
Chapter 406 - Waking Up After Sleep
"I feel safer when there is something to keep me company." Helian Wei Wei never knew that she was this skillful in telling lies.
Baili Jia Jue stared at her and took a step forward slowly. Suddenly, he raised his thin lips. "So I see, you have been implying for me to keep you company all this time."
Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless.
"Coincidentally, I have some time today. Tell me, where do you want to go?" Baili Jia Jue bent downward and touched the chain on her neck with his long finger lightly. It was as if he would change it to something to lock her up if she could not come up with something.
Helian Wei Wei who did not plan to go for a walk had to pick a place in White Academy which was furthest from Heize. "The hill at the back."
"The hill at the back?" Baili Jia Jue frowned. "There are too many mosquitoes there."
Helian Wei Wei raised her brow. "You shouldn't be afraid of mosquitoes if you have Fire Qilin with you." Also, will fragile beings like mosquitoes have the guts to get near you? They would be frozen into garbage by you even before they are ready to suck your blood.
"Only the both of us are taking a walk. Why should I bring it?" Baili Jia Jue looked at her and said with a justified tone.
Helian Wei Wei was speechless again.
What should I do? She was at a loss for words.
"Then, let's go to the Book Compound, it's usually not crowded." Helian Wei Wei knew that he disliked crowded places.
His Highness did not have many opinions this time.
The air during ancient times was fresh, especially at night. The scenery was great and the breeze was very comforting.
Helian Wei Wei felt like the restlessness in her body was soothed a lot.
The chirping of insects could be heard. They even saw fireflies flying around the bushes.
Baili Jia Jue peeked a glance at her and pointed toward the green roof tiles of the Book Compound, "Do you want to get up there?"
"Yeah." Helian Wei Wei nodded.
She had never been on ancient rooftops before although she came to this era for so long.
Baili Jia Jue reached out his arm to grab her and pointed lightly with his foot. With a slight effort, he was already standing on top of the roof with Helian Wei Wei in his arm, "Be careful, it's slippery."
"So professional?" Helian Wei Wei chuckled. She took a few paces back and forth before she sat down on the eave and lay down.
Looking at the night sky, she patted beside her and said with a lazy tone, "This angle's great. You should lie down here too."
Baili Jia Jue wanted to complain that it was dirty but he swallowed his words back after witnessing the smile on her face.
His aloof figure lay down, making him appear like a painting.
Helian Wei Wei stared at him and exclaimed internally. A man like this is really born to break women's hearts.
As if he realized that she was staring at him, Baili Jia Jue who was lying down, using his arms as support showed a rare arrogant smile toward Helian Wei Wei.
"This is comfy." Helian Wei Wei placed both her hands behind her head while she gazed at the night sky. There were no stars as bright as these at present time. "It's been so long since I've seen the Big Dipper. How did you come across such a good spot?"
Listening to her, Baili Jia Jue shut both his eyes, a shadow was formed by his dark long lashes, indifference was heard in his voice, "I came to the roof often when I was young."
"You? Come to the roof?" This doesn't sound like what His Highness would do at all. Shouldn't he be staying in the luxurious palace and busy giving out orders?
Baili Jia Jue's gaze brushed past Helian Wei Wei's face and he knew what she was thinking immediately, "I'm also a human, I need to rest too."
"Rest on top of the roof?" What kind of hobby is this?
Baili Jia Jue looked at her sideways, "I like to stand on a higher spot."
Helian Wei Wei thought to herself,… You are really the perfect match to be a royal descent, you are born to be a sovereign.
"So what do you normally think about when you're taking a rest?"
