The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  The little boy uttered, "Since you have promised me, you will have to obey it. If I see you kissing other people, you will know the consequences."

  "What can happen?" Helian Wei Wei did not care about it. He was just a little brat who could not do anything to her.

  The little boy looked at her and replied slowly, "The consequence is, I will never go back with you forever."

  Helian Wei Wei sat up straight immediately. "I will never kiss anyone. I will not even touch them at all!"

  The little boy seemed satisfied with her attitude and closed his eyes again slowly. "If you perform well, I will reward you with a gift within these few days."

  "As long as you promise to go back with me, it will be the best present for me." Helian Wei Wei held his hand; she absolutely meant it.

  The little boy pulled his hand back. "It isn't just any gift. I am going to give you a place to stay."

  The little boy laughed as if he was extremely excited. "You will definitely like it."

  "Since you have said so, I will look forward to it..." In fact, she still could not understand why he would give her a place to live. Helian Wei Wei reached out her hand and changed to another handkerchief for the little boy. She looked down again, Baili Jia Jue had turned his face away, as if he was asleep.

  Helian Wei Wei's motion became gentle. As she knew that alcohol had a cool-down effect, she helped him to wipe his fingers a little more.

  "Your Highness..." Yun Biluo was still standing outside the door. She could not see what was going on inside. She did not get any response even after shouting a few times. Thus, she could not help but raise her voice.

  Helian Wei Wei rose to her feet and walked out of the door. She then closed the door behind her. She looked at the girl in front of her indifferently.

  Yun Biluo also ignored her as she continued to yell loudly, "Your Highness!"

  Unexpectedly, her neck was pinched by Helian Wei Wei. Although she did it gently, it was filled with a strong d.e.s.i.r.e for killing.

  Helian Wei Wei curled her lips into an evil smile, "Sister Yun, I am bad-tempered; especially when I hear noises like this, my temper will worsen. I like to kill people when I get angry. His Highness is asleep, he cannot be disturbed by the noise pollution which you have created. You better stay silent, do you understand?"

  Yun Biluo was still a kid, Even though she had been living in the palace for a long time, she had never seen a woman who was able to send chills down someone's spine. She was terrified at the moment so she trembled in fear. "You, you..."

  "Don't get too triggered, don't get too triggered." Helian Wei Wei looked at her with a smile. "You try so hard to provoke me just so you can destroy my relationship with him. He will never tolerate anyone who tries to hurt the people around him. He will not be happy if I hurt you as well. This is why you are still alive today." She patted Yun Biluo's face gently. "Sister Yun, you are smart. Do you remember what I have said to you? Don't play tricks in front of a superior. Even if I don't punish you, someone will take action against you too…"

  After saying what she had to say, Helian Wei Wei loosened her grip.

  Yun Biluo looked as if she had lost all her soul. Her eyes were red and her lips were blanched as she fell to the ground. A strong sense of fear rushed toward her like a torrential flood. This woman... she even knew what was on her mind!

  At that moment, Yue Biluo felt a sense of fear that she had never experienced before.

  No way!

  She must tell His Highness what had happened just now!

  However, in the palace, no one could enter the royal chamber without the permission of the Master.

  The wooden door in front of her was closed again.

  Yun Biluo's hands turned blue. She was only a maid in the palace. His Highness did not say whether he wanted to pay his respects so she could only wait outside.

  It was freezing and her head was covered in snowflakes after a short while.

  It seemed as if she could not stand it anymore. Yun Biluo pushed open the wooden door aggressively. Her eyes were red as if she had experienced a great grievance. She then kneeled on the ground. "Your Highness..."

  As if he was awakened by the sound, the little boy opened his eyes slowly. He then sat up and looked down at Yun Biluo. His little pale face looked as if it was drained of blood, but it still could not cover his aura of nobility which was emitted from within.

  Helian Wei Wei merely paused for a while as Yun Biluo entered. She then continued to cook the casserole brown sugar soup nonchalantly as she fanned it with a fan in her hands.

  Yun Biluo bit her thin lips tightly, turned her head around and looked at Helian Wei Wei. "Sister, did I do something wrong to make you despise me so much?"

  Chapter 609 - Get Lost!

  Helian Wei Wei remained silent. With her chin resting on her hand, she smiled at her.

  Her stare sent cold chills down Yun Biluo's spine. She drew a breath before she looked up with her puffy red eyes. "Even if you despise me, you should have told His Highness. In such cold weather, you just let me stand out here like a fool, isn't it too..."

  "Who told you to come in without my permission?" The little boy interrupted her sentence apathetically.

  Yun Biluo was startled for a second. Soon, her eyes widened. "Y-Your Highness..."

  "Get lost," Those two words brought no emotions.

  Yun Biluo knew her impatience broke her master's rules. Nevertheless, she did not expect His Highness to not listen to whatever she had to say.

  "Your Highness!" Yun Biluo still wanted to say something.

  The little boy looked at her coldly. "Looks like you haven't stood long enough. Go back and repent on whether I should go and pay my respect. Stop crying, I can tell if your tears are crocodile tears or genuine ones with just one look."

  What, what does it mean?

  Yun Biluo took on a ghastly expression; even her fingers shivered.

  Helian Wei Wei walked toward her, chuckled by her ear, "I've told you. There's no need for me to punish you."

  Yun Biluo only then came to realize she had fallen into a trap!

  Her original plan was to enrage Helian Wei Wei, making His Highness lose his trust in this woman!

  In the end, she herself was provoked instead and even lost His Highness' trust...

  Yun Biluo clenched her fists tightly but she did not dare to say a word. She merely bit her lip and replied Baili Jia Jue, "Yes."

  The freezing breeze sliced through her face like a blade. She had never endured such excruciating suffering. The chillness reached her core as if she was trapped in an ice cellar that she could not escape, only to tolerate in anguish.

  The little boy looked away, pinched his glabella then laid his eyes on Helian Wei Wei.

  Helian Wei Wei directly admitted, "I cannot stand the bullying. Whatever she did to me, I would have to return it back to her. You should blame those people around you who are thinking too much. Tell me, I've been treating you so well but you keep doubting me. You can't be like this. You have to be grateful, also..."

  She kept on mumbling and mumbling. Suddenly, silence overfilled the atmosphere to the point that it made her hair stand on end.

  Once she looked up, the little boy stared at her mockingly. The coldness she felt from it was prominent.

  Helian Wei Wei cleared her throat and shut up.

  "Are you done?" The little boy laughed, without a sense of warmth.

  Helian Wei Wei was eager to continue, "Actually, not yet..."

  "Try saying another sentence and see if I'll throw you out as well." The little boy smirked charmingly.

  Helian Wei Wei squinted her eyes, smashed the bowl in her hand onto the ground, then drew a deep breath. "Drink the red dates soup," she said.

  The boy did not expect such an exaggerated reaction from her. His fingers were stiff as a stone. That moment, he thought she would turn around and leave.

  "Never mention the phrase 'get lost' ever again." Helian Wei Wei dropped
her sight to the ground. "You will not bear to throw me out. When you get older, you will just lock people up. No matter how angry you are, with that mercurial personality of yours, you'll just confuse yourself. So, I cannot leave, I have to take you back. Pride means nothing to me anyway, I'll let you shatter it as you like.

  Upon hearing her words, the little boy quieted down. He drank a sip of the red dates soup, showing signs of unprecedented obedience.

  Helian Wei Wei smiled and carried him up. "Let's continue with external cooling. It'd be faster."

  The little boy coughed a few times. A faint redness smeared across both his cheeks. He remained cold but did not push Helian Wei Wei away.

  Prey needed to be appeased.

  Since she loved hugging, he would allow her to do so for a little while. There was no master who was as considerate as him.

  Who cared about growing up. He was who he was.

  If she d.e.s.i.r.ed a more m.a.t.u.r.e and powerful master, he could give it to her now as well.

  He sank deep into his thoughts, gripping Helian Wei Wei's hands tightly.

  As long as she did not leave, he could give her anything…

  He slept soundly. If it was not for the rushing footsteps outside the door, Baili Jia Jue would not be awake so early. His palms still felt warm when he woke up and this soothed him. Then, he tucked her in before walking toward the door.

  "Your Highness." A silhouette noticed him and nervously said, "The Eldest Prince visited the Emperor. He said Your, Your..."

  "Said what?" The boy did not let out a word. Helian Wei Wei heard the noise but she closed her eyes. She did not know why but she had a bad hunch suddenly.

  The silhouette tilted his head down and continued in his shaking voice, "...said Your Highness is evil and ruthless, and that you have murdered his eunuchs. He also said you are preying on the crown prince position; thus, harming the people around him."

  Such accusations which were pointed against Baili Jia Jue was something that he could not take at all.

  After he grew up, he was still protected by his martial spirit as well as the Retired Emperor.

  However, the Retired Emperor was away now and he was a child without any foreign relations. How could he handle it?

  Does the Eldest Prince intend to take his life?

  "Got it." The boy remained calm and asked, "After he said that, what was my father's reaction?"

  The silhouette shook his head. "I don't know how the Emperor reacted but the news of this matter has spread around the palace. Your Highness, shouldn't you make a move and visit the Emperor?"

  "No," Helian Wei Wei looked solemn. "The Emperor has always been skeptical. Hence, we should not talk too much about this matter. We should just treat it as a joke. No one will believe an unarmed child has killed an a.d.u.l.t eunuch. If Your Highness go now, you will only draw unwanted attention from the Emperor."

  The little boy turned around and took a glance at her.

  Helian Wei Wei thought he did not believe in her. She stated her words firmly, "Do not let the Eldest Prince simply slander you."

  "Hmm," the boy replied. No one knew what he was thinking about but he listened to Helian Wei Wei's advice. He did not go anywhere and just stayed in his hall for roughly three days to nurse himself back to health.

  In the span of three days, Yun Biluo acted more decently. The moment she looked at her painful hands, hatred seeped through her eyes. She wanted to seize the opportunity to tell the Empress on Helian Wei Wei.

  The Empress never paid attention to that gloomy son of hers but she did not like how the things he had done was out of her control. Although he did not come in to pay his respect, it did not spoil her mood, instead, she was glad. However, as for the new palace maid, she admitted she went a bit far.

  The Empress stopped her train of thought there. She put down the rouge and asked casually, "How does the palace maid look like?"

  Yun Biluo's eyes flickered. "Oval-shaped face, a pair of bright eyes, with a rather seductive look."

  Chapter 610 - Deepened Affection

  Everyone knew that the word 'seductive' was the Empress' taboo. That woman from the Murong family received endless affection from the Emperor all thanks to her seductive appearance.

  The statement from Yun Biluo was obviously made to drive Helian Wei Wei into a dead end…

  As expected, once the Empress heard Yun Biluo statements, she smashed the rouge in her hand bit by bit. That gorgeous face of hers dimmed.

  Then, as if she had thought of something, she laughed, "The Eldest Prince lost one of his eunuchs, he ought to be furious, even if it was not Jue Er's fault. Send him a palace maid so the Eldest Prince can be at ease. A sweet delight will erase all the grudges." The main purpose was to prevent the palace maid from getting close to the Emperor. A s.l.u.t like that should be taken away so everyone would have a peace of mind!

  Yun Biluo understood what the Empress meant upon hearing the idea. She was elated but hesitant. "What if His Highness doesn't allow this? Once he has made up his mind, no one will be able to persuade him otherwise."

  "Fret not. Find a chance to let the Eldest Prince check her out." The Empress blew her fingers. "If he's satisfied, and stop to make a fuss in front of the Emperor. I will have my own ways to make Jue Er agree to this. She is just a lowly palace maid after all."

  "Alright." Yun Biluo once again felt excited. She applied pressure onto her left leg that was injured by frost in the previous incident. As long as the Empress got involved in this matter, that woman would have no choice but to get lost!

  The sky was getting dark. The next day, at the Imperial Palace School Grounds.

  Every year on this day, the palace would be bustling with excitement as the aristocrats would gather around for the upcoming hunt.

  Baili Jia Jue recovered just in time, thus he would be joining the hunt as well.

  However, as usual, not many people accompanied him in this kind of event.

  His identity was fairly noble but he was in a rather awkward position.

  Baili Jia Jue stood indifferently but elegantly at an uncrowded corner. He was pulled to the side by Helian Wei Wei who taught him some basic kungfu.

  His strokes were pretty decent but his punches were soft. It did not even hurt a bit.

  Helian Wei Wei laughed. She bowed down and wiped the sweat off him, then fed him a pastry.

  Baili Jia Jue did not like sweet-tasting food. The pastries he normally ate were all rather bland.

  Still, it was impossible for the Imperial Kitchen to put in the effort to prepare delicacies as such for an unfavored prince.

  Hence, Baili Jia Jue did not eat a lot of the pastries.

  In addition, no one would make them for him as well.

  It was the first time he felt valued, with pastries and fruits to eat…

  "T-Third Prince..."

  The boy was busy eating the pastry fed by Helian Wei Wei. A girl who was donned in a woolen robe walked toward him. She was afraid to even look him in the eyes as she shakingly handed a wooden box over. "T-This is something my mother told me to give it to you."

  Baili Jia Jue stretched his hands and took the box.

  The little girl seemed relieved. She turned back, ran toward another boy and stuck her tongue out, "My heart almost jumped out of my c.h.e.s.t."

  "Is it that terrifying?" The boy chuckled. He nodded at Baili Jia Jue from afar, signifying a salutation.

  Helian Wei Wei saw the kids leaving. She looked back and smiled at Baili Jia Jue. "Hey, do you have a thing for that girl? You take the stuff she hands over to you every single time."

  "It's egg yolk pastry," replied the boy calmly.

  Helian Wei Wei widened her eyes. "So what?" It was just some egg yolk pastry. If she knew how to do it, she would be able to make it for him too!

  "Nothing much." The boy did not show any expression. "Just that you like them."

  Helian Wei Wei was stunned at that moment. How did she not realize that the wife courting's
prattle she heard back then was incomparable to this? Oh, come on, how useless!

  As the thought occupied her mind, Helian Wei Wei opened the wooden box and stuffed one egg yolk pastry into her mouth. She ate it happily.

  Seeing her satisfaction, he was not disgusted by it at all. He stood in front of Helian Wei Wei and took his handkerchief to wipe the corner of her lips. Steadily, he said, "Eat slowly next time, don't spill your food everywhere. You're an a.d.u.l.t yet I still have to teach you.."

  "Aye, ain't this our fearless Third Prince?" A sarcastic voice suddenly interrupted.

  Helian Wei Wei turned around and looked. She saw three to four sons from the aristocratic families walking toward them from afar. The one who interrupted them was the one who was walking ahead of the rest.

  Master Li, son of General Li who grasped great powers, also the Eldest Prince's cousin of the consort kin.

  Appearance-wise, he looked younger than Baili Jia Jue by two or three years. However, he looked evil and the words he uttered were outrageously disgusting and rude. "Third Prince, we've come to you tonight, not for any other business. If you swallow these two earthworms, we'll leave that Xiao Zuozi incident behind. If you don't, I'll tell my father that you have bullied me. You know my father has an army, even the Emperor has to respect him. Say, will you, the unfavoured prince, be punished then?"

  Baili Jia Jue did not make a move. He just held Helian Wei Wei's hand even tighter. His glare, covered by his fringe, was filled with a terrifying sense of gloom.

  Master Li signaled his followers and sneered at him. "Beat him up. He won't dare to fight back. If he dares to return the favor, I'll scream for help to draw everyone's attention! Tell them he is the one who bullies me!"

  He had seen shameless people, but never witnessed an extremely shameless person like Master Li.

  Helian Wei Wei clutched both of her hands but she could see the situation with great clarity. A child who was extremely evil would not be able to solely come up with such a detailed and thorough plan. He must be backed up by someone.
