“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.
The young eunuch raised his chin up and was immensely pleased with himself.
When he heard a voice transmit from the carriage, one devoid of any warmth whatsoever, it made his scalp feel numb. “If she were to leave, then use your head in exchange.”
That voice was very insipid, very soft yet even if it’s like that, it scared the young eunuch to kneeling on the ground in a flash!
“Third……Third Prince, this servant…” The young eunuch trembled from head to foot.
Yet Baili Jia Jue didn’t even spare him a glance. “I actually don’t know when Miss Helian made an unprofitable exchange with me. Could it be that no one ever told you, I very much don’t like to be misunderstood?”
“Servant, this servant….” The young eunuch only felt wronged, he was also only listening to those people say that His Highness loathed this love-struck fool, Helian Wei Wei. After all, His Highness had never allowed that girl to to meet him like this before, but looking at it now, they’d all incorrectly guessed His Highness’ thoughts.
Baili Jia Jue’s voice didn’t contain the slightest bit of undulation. “Shadow, take him away, cut his tongue out, tell these eunuchs, things they shouldn’t say, they need to close their mouths properly for me and not talk drivel.”
“Yes!” Shadow used force and lifted the eunuch.
That young eunuch already didn’t dare to speak long ago, his lips unsightly pale and colourless, in the end, nothing good came to the one who’s eager to harm others.
Wei Wei stood to one side and watched calmly in silence. She didn’t think that Third Prince would actually get angry.
However, after careful consideration, his methods were indeed like this.
Maybe it’s because of his sort of bloody methods that the four great clans would act blindly without thinking.
“Come up.” The voice from within the carriage sounded again, although it’s as apathetic as before, devoid of the murderous aura that came with the recent wind and snow.
Wei Wei was still thinking of recent events and didn’t react.
When she heard him speak again. “It is possible that you want me to personally come down and carry you up here in my arms.”
Of course, Wei Wei was made somewhat speechless by this suggestion of his spoken without the least bit of feeling.
Have His Highness carry her into the carriage?
Even if Eunuch Sun put even more effort to help her conceal it, she’s afraid before a couple of hours passed, every student at the academy would’ve learned of this news.
Because that kind of scene truly would produce too strong of a reaction.
Wei Wei even wondered if, at that point, she’d be shot to death by people’s gazes.
“It would seem that you truly want me to go carry you.”
Having heard this, Wei Wei quickly opened her mouth. “You stay there, don’t move! I’ll go on my own.”
“Don’t you want to leave?”
She didn’t know if it’s a misperception, but Wei Wei felt that these words from Third Prince felt a little bit lonely.
Wei Wei’s fingers lifting open the curtain to the carriage paused, until she truly entered the carriage did she know that she’d been mistaken.
What she’d just felt to be loneliness, was completely because His Highness had just woken up, to the extent that his voice was somewhat hoarse.
He seemed like his head still hadn’t cleared of his dreams, his eyes half closed, dense eyebrows, jet-black eyelashes hung down.
Long black spilled ink like hair flowed behind him, a pure white robe worn against his skin, it’s just that the robe’s collar was pulled open by him. The luxurious brocade was embroidered using silver threads, large blooms of various exquisite flowers, out of the ordinary, even the cuffs was pricked by several stems of lotuses, his entire body, from inside to outside, was elegant to the extreme.
This Baili Jia Jue was less apathetic, less pure and holy, less reserved and noble than when he’s before other people, but more indolent and fatally sexy.
He half reclined on the chair covered with fur set up inside the carriage, one long leg half bent, even when she came in, he didn’t lift a lid……
