The Anarchic Consort (Book 1)

261-265

When Helian Jiao Er came to her senses, she saw that Su Yanmo had held her hand.

If it weren't for that, she would have rushed forward.

Everyone around looked at her like she was a mad woman, It made Helian Jiao Er wish she could find a hole and hide inside it.

From when did she fall from the genius that everyone envied to such a plight now.

Helian Jiao Er felt the hate till her gums itched, but she was not able to take it out on Helian Wei Wei. Her eyes were red rimmed.

Su Yanmo looked at her beloved daughter whom she never imagined would be so ruined, like she had been punched viciously by someone. She could not bear it but she had to comfort her: "Jiao Er, listen to me. Even though the big wedding is over, things won't be good between them. You know very well that the Third Prince doesn't fancy this type of woman. Besides, with her ugly looks, no man would be able to tolerate her, and the Third Prince won't touch her. Besides, in a short while, it will be the country's big celebration and that person will surely be back. As long as that person is back, the vile spawn will definitely be kicked out."

"The person mother is referring to is the servant girl who looked after His Highness?" Helian Jiao Er's eyes filled with evil intentions.

Su Yanmo looked around and lowered her voice: "That's her. Actually mother did not want to tell you for fear you will be more depressed as you truly like the Third Prince. However, with the way things are now, I might as well tell you. Then the two of you can join forces to take the vile spawn down. How can that ugly woman compare to the two of you who are as beautiful as jade."

"But I am to be married into the Huai family, how can I and the Third Prince....." Helian Jiao Er bit her thin lip, a woman who is betrothed to someone else hooking up with another is not a good thing.

Su Yanmo's eyes looked serious: "Jiao Er, you have to remember, in this world only if you win you are right. Just like when mother told you to snatch away Murong Changfeng, it is the same logic."

"But at that time he didn't do anything to me. It was just purely out of hatred for that little wretch." Helian Jiao Er frowned: "It is the little wretch's fault. Not only is she born ugly, but she wouldn't leave the young master alone, of course he was disgusted with her."

Su Yanmo smiled: "You see, even the young master couldn't stand her face, let alone the Third Prince. Jiao Er, just you wait, when the time comes, mother will take revenge for you!"

Snap!

Baili Jiajue stepped on the last stage of the white jade ladder. All of the civil and military officials standing in the main hall were shocked by the actions of the Baili Jiajue. They subconsciously looked to the center of the main hall.

The Emperor and Empress were sat there. They wore their dragon and phoenix robes. They had a decent smile on their faces and spoke in shallow whispers. It was peaceful and prosperous. However, the moment they saw Baili Jiajue walking in, they stared blankly.

Only the retired Emperor carrassed his beard and laughed, his cool laughter echoed through the hall: "Seeing how well these two children get along, this old man is relieved. Come, come and start the tea ceremony!"

Baili Jiajue stood alone in the middle of the hall and bent over to put Helian Wei Wei down.

Almost immediately, the palace ladies and eunuchs brought out the prepared teapots and teacups.

Helian Wei Wei could not make out who was who and only listened to the noises around and did as she needed to.

Everything appeared lively and festive.
