The Anarchic Consort (Book 1)

206-210

"It can't be as bad as to form pus." Helian Wei Wei's thin lips curved a bit, helping him out of a predicament. "However, the beauty of that pair of hands belonging to His Highness indeed would be affected if it became scarred. I'll go take a look with Eunuch Sun."

Eunuch Sun looked as if he'd seen his savior, his eyes shined, extended his hand while saying. "Eldest Miss, follow me in walking to this side." After saying this, he turned his head and instructed those young eunuchs. "You guys go ahead first, whoever dares to spread news of today's matter, needs to take care of your neck!"

Wei Wei knew that this was to help prepare an escape for her. What was good at present was that Helian Jiao Er and the rest of the young girls already left. Otherwise, if they saw Wei Wei entering Third Prince's horse carriage, it'd bring much more trouble.

Eunuch Sun's words were to help Wei Wei ward off these troubles, thereby also served to protect Wei Wei's purpose.

After all, when a woman became jealous, what their poisonous hearts could scheme out were impossible to defend against.

As Eunuch Sun led the way, he thought about reporting to Retired Emperor after this, yet at this time, Retired Emperor's horse carriage also was going to leave suddenly making him not know what's best to do.

Wei Wei naturally noticed his restlessness and didn't mind it at all. "I can go there by myself. Eunuch Sun can go do what you need to."

"I'll have to trouble Miss Helian then." Eunuch Sun turned his head to instruct a young eunuch, the hurriedly left in Retired Emperor's direction.

The young eunuch probably hadn't accompanied Eunuch Sun for any length of time, didn't even look directly at Wei Wei's eyes and lowered his head nervously. "Miss Wei Wei, His Highness' horse carriage is over there."

Wei Wei looked up and only saw a carved dark wood horse carriage stopped at the distance. That carriage was very big, without any superfluous ornamentation, on the roof were carvings in the style of floating clouds, made of the best hardwoods, subdued, yet its penetrating luxuriousness was difficult to cover up.

"Ok. I got it!" Wei Wei strolled over, yet at a place one meter away, she was stopped.

It's also a young messenger eunuch who waited upon Baili Jia Jue throughout this journey. Seeing Wei Wei come, he didn't bother to be polite. "This young lady, look carefully, your carriage is over there, and certainly's not here, where His Highness is."

Wei Wei knew that he's just doing what he should be doing, after all, if everyone could approach Third Prince's carriage, then that would indeed result in chaos.

Just as Wei Wei was going to clarify her purpose in coming, she heard that young eunuch again mutter. "Did you really think Our Highness is easy to fawn on, it's enough that you used tricks in the temple, now, you even come to make an unprofitable exchange. Don't you know His Highness is most irritated with this."

Unprofitable exchange?

After Wei Wei heard these two words, she laughed coldly, extended her hand to grab his collar, her tone of voice not level. "I was asked by Eunuch Sun to come and apply medicine for His Highness, but it would seem, that it's not necessary."

Her voice dropped, Wei Wei turned around and was going to leave.

The young eunuch sneered extremely disapprovingly, even invited by Eunuch Sun, who's she fooling, what kind of beauty did she think she was.

If it's Helian Jiao Er's kind with both family background and appearance, then it's about right to say these things.

Looking at that face of hers, so unbecoming it made a person less than impressed. What's more, at the temple, His Highness was already thoroughly disgusted with this woman. He certainly didn't want her to approach.
