The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 395: Wei Wei Told Off The Scumbag

Helian Wei Wei turned back with ridicule in her eyes. “The things I couldn’t take were your bullshit and your ingratitude. Save it, Murong Changfeng. Instead of appearing in front of me, why don’t you use the time to think of how you’re going to climb up the ladder? Wasn’t that the reason you kicked me aside in the first place last time? In your heart, marriage was but a stepping stone to your career.”

Murong Changfeng’s entire facial expression had changed upon hearing Helian Wei Wei’s words. His knuckles cracked with the clenching of his fists. Subsequently, he sneered, “So the Third Prince didn’t marry anyone to climb his way up? With your looks, how long do you think he’ll allow you to stay by his side? This idea probably crossed your mind when you first married him right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have let Heize prepare some kind of escape route for you.”

“Matters between us don’t concern you.” Helian Wei Wei glanced at him plainly and with a dull voice, said, “You know nothing.”

“You!” Murong Changfeng looked at the back of the figure that he would never be able to get close to again. Besides feeling vexed, he was filled with an immeasurable sense of emptiness.

Yun Biluo stood under a eucalyptus tree not far away with the corners of her mouth twitching upward.

She put together what she had heard of the conversation between Helian Wei Wei and Murong Changfeng in the teahouse.

So, Helian Wei Wei and His Highness’ marriage was a mere deal.

Well, well, well.

Yun Biluo’s lips curved into a smile. It was only a relationship of mutual utilization.

Then, that would be easy…

Meanwhile, Helian Wei Wei who had just left the Trading Compound wanted to take advantage of her spare time to have a look at the Green Dragon which was submerged at the bottom of the Green Dragon Lake.

However, the Green Dragon Lake seemed foggier than usual, making Helian Wei Wei frown involuntarily.

“Something’s wrong.” Yuan Ming called for Helian Wei Wei to come back, “Woman, don’t walk further.”

Helian Wei Wei paused mid-step, “What is it?”

“The aura here is harmful to your body now.” Yuan Ming narrowed his eyes. “You can come back after the day of your Yab-Yum, or otherwise, you won’t be able to make it through the Full Moon night before you burst.”

Helian Wei Wei looked at the fog surrounding the Green Dragon Lake. “Is it because of this fog?”

“This isn’t a normal fog.” Yuan Ming’s eyes darkened. “I don’t know what method they used, but someone gathered the resentment of the whole Academy here and currently, you’re unsuited to continue walking forward.”

Helian Wei Wei’s frown deepened, “Then, what about the Green Dragon issue?”

“Pass it to someone else,” Yuan Ming’s voice was tinged with a rare seriousness. “Master Hei is a straight person and won’t be affected by the resentment. Once you get through the full moon, then you can come to look for the Green Dragon.”

Helian Wei Wei thought about it as she pulled back her gaze from the Green Dragon Lake. “Then that’s all we can do.”

The only thing is, who is spending so much effort, trying to destroy the auspiciousness of the Academy?

Helian Wei Wei did not know why, but she had a feeling that the person who did this was in the Academy itself.

Splash!

The surface of the Lake rippled with the splash.

At the same time, as Helian Wei Wei and Yuan Ming were conversing, a carriage stopped in front of the bronze doors of the Hei family in the West of the city.

“Madam, Mistress, we’re here.” The footman opened the cloth curtains of the carriage.

The figure of a young lady walked down from the carriage. She had waist-length black hair combed tidily behind her and with a pair of glassy eyes with allure that any man could hardly resist; she seemed to be thinking of something.

However, from the expensive clothes the girl was clad in, it was not hard to see that she was of high status. Moreover, even though her face was covered with white gauze, based on her looks and facial structures, she was obviously Helian Jiao Er who had hidden away the past few days to escape from rumors.

Helian Jiao Er who had rested well enough outside had evidently come back with better spirits.

Su Yan Mo stood beside her as they linked arms. Both mother and daughter appeared to be smiling in a good mood.

They had waited for this day for too long.

The Third Prince was finally going to pick his secondary consort and to them, this was amazingly good news.

That ugly Helian Wei Wei was going to lose out terribly.

The mother and daughter had left the city with thoughts of letting the rumors in the city cool down before coming back.

However, Su Yan Mo had unexpectedly stumbled upon some exciting news.

She had found a clue to the hidden army.

Madam Su hesitated for a moment before waving her hand, signaling for her handmaid to wait there as she put on a straight face, walking toward the Hei Manor.

“May we ask what has brought Madam to the Hei Manor?” The two guards outside the doors turned toward Madam Su who was proceeding with frowns.

“Young man, may I please trouble you to report inside. Just say that Madam Su of the General’s residence is here for a visit to discuss a matter regarding the hidden army.” Su Yan Mo mentioned the General’s residence with full confidence, thinking that Old Master Hei would definitely invite her into the Manor.

“Please do wait, Madam as I inform the Old Master.” Once the two guards heard the mention of the hidden army, they gave a sideways glance at each other.

One of them turned to walk into the Hei Manor.

In no time, the guard who had walked in just now had come back out again and with a straight face, he said to Madam Su, “Madam, the Hei family will only receive real members of the Helian family.”

“What do you mean real members of the Helian family?” Helian Jiao Er who had been listening from the side said coldly, “Don’t I bear the surname of Helian?”

The guard glanced at her and said in a plain voice, “The heir who has Old Master Helian’s blood running through his veins is probably not this young lady here.”

“But I should still have the right to see the hidden army, right?” Helian Jiao Er could not help but raise her voice, “The Helian family is about to be passed into the hands of my father and I am my father’s heir. At that time, the hidden army will once again return under the control of the General’s residence and it is for the best that I am able to see the army to understand them better.”

The guard was unmoved, “To see the hidden army, there should be a display of a Military Seal. As for you, young lady, you have no Military Seal and you are not considered a real member of the Helian family. Therefore, please leave.”

With that, the guards did not give any extra glances at Helian Jiao Er and focused attentively on the surroundings as if the mother and daughter before them did not exist at all.

Upon hearing the remarks by the guard, Su Yan Mo’s initially beaming face was then filled with bewilderment. She thought that by bringing along Jiao Er with her to look for the hidden army, Jiao Er’s identity as a Phoenix Girl would flourish wherever they went. At worst, they would still be able to see Old Master Hei.

As long as they saw Old Master Hei, they would at least understand more about the hidden army through him even if they could not get support from the hidden army.

Yet, unexpectedly, Old Master Hei had not given her any face and not even let her enter the doors of the Hei family.

As she mulled over this, Su Yan Mo gritted her teeth in anger and with a momentary pause, she turned back to the carriage with a dark sullen face.
