The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  Even so, she did not manage to surpass Yun Biluo.

  Every one of them gave Yun Biluo very high marks.

  97 points were already the lowest, let alone that there were many who gave her 100!

  The crowd was in clamors, many cheered for Yun Biluo's high points as if the contest of beauty had ended with her while judging that Helian Wei Wei was not necessary.

  This was because anyone with eyes could see that with Helian Wei Wei's looks, she could only be the last!

  Lord Liao cleared his throat twice, "Silence! Silence! Judges, please grade the princess consort."

  Helian Jiao Er smiled for the time had finally arrived!

  What a b*tch, so what if she won the cultivation test? She still had to lower her head in front of them in the end!

  She deserved it!

  Helian Jiao Er finally felt a lot more comfortable, her gaze at Helian Wei Wei was filled with mockery that took p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e toward the misfortunate.

  Yu Biluo's voice was soft, "Wei Wei, maybe you should stop them from grading you, I'm afraid that you'll get hurt."

  Her words might sound like she was saying it for Helian Wei Wei's sake, but she actually meant that Helian Wei Wei was the ugliest among them!

  "Sister Yun, just let her get her gradings. We are already here anyway, let her try and hear everyone's grading so that she won't have regrets later," Helian Jiao Er continued Yu Biluo's words hypocritically.

  Helian Wei Wei just smiled at her faintly, she then told Lord Liao calmly, "Before the grading, I want to wash my face so that the judges can have a better look at me before grading."

  Lord Liao was thinking that it was useless for her to wash her face since it was naturally dark. Yet, he ordered the men to bring her a wooden bucket of clear water.

  He would not want to unintentionally offend the Third Prince because of this.

  Although he was also one of the four influential families, he would still try his best from stepping on Third Prince's tail.

  However, he could not understand the reason why the princess consort requested to wash her face now.

  The others were also puzzled by the sudden request of Helian Wei Wei.

  Even Second Master Hei who always understood her furrowed his thick brows as he had no idea what she was trying to do.

  Only the man in white standing in the crowd who was c.a.r.e.s.sing the little one with his fingers was slightly stunned. When he looked up, his dark gaze landed on Helian Wei Wei, it faintly looked like his eyes were shining.

  Helian Wei Wei stood there without caring about the little commotion that she had caused with her request.

  She nimbly flipped her left hand and several fresh red strawberries appeared magically on her palm.

  She absent-mindedly crushed the strawberries into juices in the wooden bucket at a position where people could not see her movements. Then, she softly scooped the water up with her hands and tapped it on her face...

  Xiunu¹ - Young unmarried women awaiting selection test to become a concubine or secondary consort in this case.

  Chapter 424 - Instant Kill With Looks

  As she washed her face, black droplets of water seemingly rolled down her cheeks, white jade-like fairness shone before the crowd a little by little...

  "W-What is going on?"

  "Can the black spots on the princess consort's face be washed off?"

  The crowd was looking at the fairness of the skin in disbelief before they even got a full look at Helian Wei Wei's face. They were already on their feet in astonishment!

  However, even under their scorching gazes, Helian Wei Wei was not in a hurry. After washing her face with her head down, she wiped the water away with a white handkerchief. With a flick of her fingers, a folded umbrella with black feathers embedded on it appeared in her jade-like hands.

  Then, she looked up slowly, her skin was as fair as snow, her gaze was bright like a star, and the beauty mole under her eyes glistened...

  At that instant, all clamors were halted.

  She was like an untainted lotus that blossomed from the mud, the bright moon that rose high!

  Everyone's eyes were widened to their maximum size as they looked at the once ugly person whose appearance was almost incurable. Their eyes were filled with unspeakable shock!

  That fair skin looked like it was shining, her flower-like narrow face was sparkling like jade, moreover, her indolent gentle smile made her beauty almost suffocating!

  Especially when she walked over with the black feather folded umbrella, the sleeves sewn with silver floral patterns drifted along with the air, and the little opening at the hem of her long robe gave out a lazy temptation. As she moved, the beautiful shape of her calves was showing, revealing her attractive ankle.

  She simply walked close to the judges' seat. Her eyes were deeper than the others, the dark color of her pupils was pure, appearing hollow as though a person could be dragged in.

  Bewitching, stunning and indolent.

  She was like the alluring devil's snare that bloomed in the dark world, capturing souls without any signs!

  Everything turned to silence.

  Helian Jiao Er's face turned pale and faltered backward vehemently!

  H-How could this be possible?

  How could Helian Wei Wei be that person?

  No one noticed Helian Jiao Er's reaction because the crowd was silenced and stupefied by the beauty altogether!

  Including Eunuch Sun and Master Hei.

  They once thought that maybe Helian Wei Wei would be a lot prettier if she was fairer.

  But to their surprise, she became this aesthetic. Her beauty was comparable to a deity that descended from heaven. It was heart-throbbing!

  Especially her temperament - the gentle and bewitching laziness. Not to mention that any man would be more than delighted to marry her home, but even a woman would fall for her!

  Heize pinched his own t.h.i.g.h and when he felt the pain, he strongly turned around to the butler beside him, "Is that really my little sister? Your big boss?"

  The butler calmly replied, "The boss showed her true face a few times but none of which Second Master was around."

  "She could have made a living with her face! Why would she rely on her martial Qi instead before this? No, I have to think carefully about how to protect my little sister in the future as a qualified sworn brother. Before this, her looks were so safe, so I've never thought about this problem!" Hei Zhe turned back and stared at Helian Wei Wei.

  The butler was speechless.

  However, from the Third Prince's expression, why it seems like he is not very pleased with this?

  Fire Qilin who peeked into the butler's thoughts grinned evilly. It ran over and asked Baili Jia Jue, "Master, how are you feeling now?" It did not forget what its master did when he first saw its lady master's true looks - he smeared her face darker! It was obvious that his domineering d.e.s.i.r.e was at play, but he was too proud to let others know and now… hehe!

  While the crowd was fully petrified, Baili Jia Jue casually glanced over at the Fire Qilin that curled up beside his feet in soul form as he faintly lifted his lips. "You really want to know how I feel?"

  Godd*mn it! Here it came!

  The monstrous smile!

  Fire Qilin's head went numb, "I-It's not like I really want to, b-but if master really wants to talk about it."

  "Hmmm…" The corner of Baili Jia Jue's mouth curled into an obvious evil grin. "My feelings? It's simple. It seemed like I have failed to discipline you enough recently and maybe I've underfed you with vegetables."

  Fire Qilin was rendered speechless.

  Could he not say something so perverted in a way as though it was something normal?

  It knew its master would be unhappy so asking his feelings was actually torture for itself!

  After Bali Jia Jue said that, he returned his gaze on the petrified people while clenching his fists.

  The feeling when his most precious thing was peeked at by the other
s was really not good...

  He would have to think of a way to make her compensate after returning to the palace.

  Baili Jia Jue was playing with the ring on his finger as the corner of his mouth slowly curled, only then it's fair, isn't it?

  Helian Wei Wei had no idea about His Highness' thoughts, her gaze was on the group of men who maintained the same expression. She spoke up to remind, "Judges, you may grade me now."

  Only then the judges woke up from their trance, they blinked as their minds slowly regained composure, reminding them about what they were supposed to do...

  Then!

  They graded madly!

  Somehow someone grumbled in the crowd, "Why does the Third Princess Consort look so familiar?"

  "Now that you've mentioned it… Ah! I remember! Didn't a deity appear in the capital some time ago? Isn't that deity the Third Princess Consort?!"

  "Who would have thought about that! Full points! It must be full points for the Third Princess Consort!"

  The atmosphere at the scene was getting merrier!

  In order to prevent the crowd from going out of control, the soldiers were busy maintaining orders!

  When Yun Biluo saw this, the tenderness at the tip of her mouth stiffened.

  She thought Helian Wei Wei would surely lose in the beauty contest, that was the reason why she was not concerned about the martial Qi test earlier.

  But now!

  She was the one on the brink of losing!

  Deep down, she had never taken Helian Wei Wei seriously because of Helian Wei Wei's face.

  In the end, only she realized that this woman had always been a ringer who was hiding a good hand under her sleeves!

  The more Yun Biluo thought of it, the harder her hands clenched under her long sleeves.

  Her master had given her the order to win and return to His Highness' side.

  If she lost today, how would she return?

  Unless...

  Right at the moment, excitement swept over the ring and interrupted Yun Biluo's thoughts, "Gosh! It's really 1,000 points!"

  "Everyone gave the princess consort full mark, great!"

  "Hehe, only the blind ones could not see the boss' beauty!"

  "Boss? Why are you calling the princess consort as your boss?"

  Chapter 425 - The Truth Unveiled! Cool, Wei Wei!

  "Haven't you heard? There are a bunch of people at White Academy that acknowledged the princess consort as their boss. Other than myself, there are many students from wealthy backgrounds. At first, they thought that the princess consort was just a piece of trash that was always infatuated with her man and extremely foppish. But the more we get to know her, we realize she is unlike the rumors. She might be difficult to approach during normal times and her words were always sharp and harsh, but she would never hold malicious intents against people. As long as others don't talk about her, she wouldn't do anything to them, all she did was lie down on the study table and nap. On top of that, the people used to laugh at her for being a suck-up, saying that she pleased the master to get up in ranks, but as a matter of fact, she was the founder of Wei Ze World. Her martial practice was decent and when she entered the academy, she achieved results no one had ever done before. She even led the students of the Inferior Compound to break the hundred years vicious cycle and won first place! And before she joined the selection of the secondary consort, she even summoned an ancient mythical beast in the academy, the Green Dragon! Even without that face of hers, the boss is the coolest in our hearts! Hehe, of course, now with her beautiful face, it would be perfect!"

  Those who heard it looked at each other in bewilderment, other than a shock, it was still a shock for them, "So that's the truth?"

  "It has always been the truth but the boss doesn't like to talk about it outside." It seemed like those men had suddenly become Helian Wei Wei's loyal fans for they were defending her.

  Aside from the others, it was also because that among all the people, Helian Wei Wei was the first person who came from a famous background and yet never looked down on them - the minor government officers and laborers in rural areas. Unlike the other famous young ladies who acted compassionately for all mankind in front of people and would pray in front of the Buddha on behalf of the world but behind everyone, they would always bully them.

  However, their boss would not, she would give them advice so that they could advance further.

  Of course, those who misunderstood the boss would only hate her more, but those who truly knew the boss would stand by the boss no matter what.

  This was the so-called charming character.

  He believed in the foreseeable future when people mentioned Helian Wei Wei's name, they would not insult her with irritating words anymore because one day, everything would be exposed under the light, and the truth would be revealed.

  Wherever the boss eventually ended up, simply following her around would make one feel excited.

  Her thoughts told her that she was starting to see the world that the princess consort used to describe.

  Freedom, equality, warmth, astonishment!

  "Hehe, now the ministers would be convinced of their defeat," Eunuch Sun chuckled when he heard the discussion beneath.

  Originally, the reason why the Retired Emperor sent Eunuch Sun here was to support Helian Wei Wei on behalf of him.

  Who would have thought Helian Wei Wei did not even need anyone's support to take the win in such a remarkable way!

  The official-in-charge, Lord Liao, had also just regained his senses, as shock lingered in his mind. He uncomfortably cleared his throat before saying, "I now announce the result for the beauty contest, the winner is the Prince Consort!"

  At the same time, as for the other three who were in the contest, including Helian Jiao Er, envy and grievance gushed out from their hearts the moment they heard the result.

  Young Lady Lan feigned a dubious look and said, "How strange? When the beauty appraisal was released back then, Sister Yun was obviously first place but why now… Princess Consort, I don't mean anything else, I just think the sense of beauty in everyone varied. I felt a little puzzled about why Sister Yun lost all of a sudden."

  After Helian Jiao Er heard those words, her dull gaze shone once more, how did she forget about the appearance evaluation?

  Due to the fact that Helian Wei Wei had responded in her calm and peaceful voice with a tint of elegance, "Lord Liao hasn't even announced the rankings yet, why is Miss Lan so sure that Miss Yun was first place?"

  The young lady named Lan did not think to that extent, she was stupefied by Helian Wei Wei's respond.

  Helian Jiao Er, of course, would not let this slip, it might be their only chance to turn the tides around, she must seize it!

  "Elder sister, did you forget? Lord Liao might not announce our rankings but the result from the appearance evaluation was released on the announcement board." Helian Jiao Er chuckled as if her words were just. "It was because of that, we thought the current result is a little unfair for Sister Yun."

  Yun Biluo's eyes were red, she shook her head while smiling, "It's fine, I accept defeat."

  She claimed to be fine but her expression was drowned in a grievance.

  Helian Wei Wei was always impressed by these people. Because of her character, she never knew how to act and please others depending on their status.

  That was why back then she offended a lot of people and was backstabbed many times.

  After that, she became colder and more m.a.t.u.r.ed.

  She would only climb higher in the ranks and win this war in her own way!

  Since she did not speak for a while, Helian Jiao Er thought Helian Wei Wei had run out of arguments.

  However, right when she curled her lips up, she heard Helian Wei Wei's chuckle, "Based on what I know, the list only announced the sequence number but not the candidates' name, why are you so sure that No. 11 is Miss Yun?"

  After hearing that, the young lady named Lan tossed a gaze at Yun Biluo.<
br />
  Helian Wei Wei captured her little action, her thin lips curled into a faintly mocking smile, "Or does Miss Yun think that she is No.11?"

  Yun Biluo did not say anything, she bit her thin lips tightly and feigned innocence, "Huh?"

  "Princess Consort, you might have gotten first place but Sister Yun isn't wrong, why are you talking to her like that?" One has to admit that Miss Lan was very passionate about helping people.

  However, her passion was a little muddled between right and wrong, and it irritated Helian Wei Wei.

  Whenever one made mistakes, there would always be reasons to forgive that person because, in life, everyone made mistakes.

  But when someone made a mistake and righteously claimed that they did not, then why would Helian Wei Wei argue with her, when she could have just slaughtered her?

  "Lord Liao, announce everyone's sequence number, please."

  Chapter 426 - Wei Wei Proved Yun Biluo And Jiao Er Wrong

  Yun Biluo did not know why, but she felt a faint uneasiness after hearing what Helian Wei Wei had said.

  Lord Liao also wanted to announce it earlier, but then he did not know any of them and what their corresponding serial numbers were. The results were recorded by the steward.

  However, these girls would show their serial numbers before reporting their names when entering the show.

  Therefore, he could not recognize them individually.

  He took a glance at the steward.

  The steward reacted very quickly, the paper on the hand shook and he read aloud, "The first place of the appearance evaluation is serial number 11, she is… Helian Wei Wei!"

  What!?

  How could this be!

  Lan subconsciously looked at Yun Biluo, "Sister Yun… how…"

  Yun Biluo was deeply suppressing her feelings that were rolling up. Yet, there was redness in her eyes, and she said with a pitiful tone, "At the start, I didn't take the appearance evaluation seriously, so I didn't care too much. Now that I think of it, it was really my negligence." Upon saying that, she raised her head and looked at Helian Wei Wei. "This is my bad after all. It's right that the princess consort should blame me. But I don't intend to pretend to be the winner, neither did Lan and the others. Please do not misunderstand us, Princess Consort!"
