Chapter 434: Wei Wei Proved Yun Biluo And Jiao Er Wrong
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Yun Biluo did not know why, but she felt a faint uneasiness after hearing what Helian Wei Wei had said.
Lord Liao also wanted to announce it earlier, but then he did not know any of them and what their corresponding serial numbers were. The results were recorded by the steward.
However, these girls would show their serial numbers before reporting their names when entering the show.
Therefore, he could not recognize them individually.
He took a glance at the steward.
The steward reacted very quickly, the paper on the hand shook and he read aloud, “The first place of the appearance evaluation is serial number 11, she is… Helian Wei Wei!”
What!?
How could this be!
Lan subconsciously looked at Yun Biluo, “Sister Yun… how…”
Yun Biluo was deeply suppressing her feelings that were rolling up. Yet, there was redness in her eyes, and she said with a pitiful tone, “At the start, I didn’t take the appearance evaluation seriously, so I didn’t care too much. Now that I think of it, it was really my negligence.” Upon saying that, she raised her head and looked at Helian Wei Wei. “This is my bad after all. It’s right that the princess consort should blame me. But I don’t intend to pretend to be the winner, neither did Lan and the others. Please do not misunderstand us, Princess Consort!”
While this sounded like an apology, but she was insinuating that Helian Wei Wei misunderstood and did injustice to her.
Helian Wei Wei smiled, with coldness in her eyes, she said with a flat tone, “Miss Yun, you and I are well aware of the truth. There is no way to end it once the act has gone overboard.”
After Yun Biluo heard these words, her eyes turned red and her tears were about to fall.
However, since the matter had developed to this point, those beneath the stage seemed to have guessed what had happened.
Of course, some were still ignorant, who thought that Yun Biluo was quite aggrieved. They thought such a misunderstanding occurred due to miscommunication.
However, no matter how she played as the victim, it was futile.
Helian Wei Wei deserved to win!
Helian Jiao Er knew that all the publicity would be taken by Helian Wei Wei if she continued to be silent. So, she faked a smile and said, “Sister, since you have known that you were the first place in the appearance evaluation, why don’t you show your face and your serial number then? You made us worry for such a long time.”
Her words were obviously a trap. No matter how Helian Wei Wei answered, it would still taint her victory today.
That was Helian Jiao Er’s idea.
However, Helian Wei Wei smiled. “Why did I not show my face and serial number? Naturally, I have my own reasons. I realized that since the day my appearance evaluation results came out, someone has been trying to stop me from coming to the selection today. They even wanted to finish me directly. I only caught a few people. Maybe it’s a good time to bring them up and ask them who their master is, and who ordered them to check on me and harm me! Little Seven!”
“Third Aunt, I am here!” The Little Seventh Prince emerged from the crowd with a serious face, holding a meat bun in one hand, and a baton in another, driving several court servants onto the stage.
Not only Helian Jiao Er, but even Lord Liao was fl.u.s.tered when he saw them. He stood up and said, “Insolent bunch, how dare you trouble the princess consort? Somebody! Drag them away and give them a furious beating!”
“Hold on,” Helian Wei Wei stopped him, and continued with an unhurried tone, “Lord Liao, I haven’t even asked them yet, what are you anxious about?”
For unknown reasons, Liao Wuliang felt that the aura coming out from this girl at that moment was exactly the same as the Third Prince that he was afraid of getting into trouble with.
At this moment, Baili Jia Jue was just sitting in his seat with one hand supporting his jaw. He looked at the scene nonchalantly and playfully.
His prey was playing again.
When she was finished playing, he would deal with those who were required to be handled…
“Elder Sister!” Helian Jiao Er rushed up in a hurry. If they really spilled her beans in front of so many people, especially in front of her once-beloved Third Prince, then the image that she had worked long and hard for in the Capital would vanish as well. After she called out her elder sister, she softened her voice, “Why do you keep such people? They are all people who waste the government’s money but do not do work!”
“Oh, so you also know that they are the court’s servants.” Helian Wei Wei looked at Helian Jiao Er with her hands on her shoulders. “Since you are so smart, you should notice that the clothes they wear are exactly the same as Lord Liao’s men. Furthermore, I know that you just met with a few of them yesterday. How could you pretend that you do not know them today?”
Helian Jiao Er’s eyes shook violently. “Big sister, what are you saying? I don’t understand at all!”
“You don’t understand?” Helian Wei Wei laughed and snapped her fingers with her outstretched left hand.
Swoos.h.!.+
Instantly, a mercenary dressed in a black s.h.i.+rt was kneeling in front of her.
“Tell them what you see in these two days.”
“Yes.” The mercenary wearing a half-face mask said with a low voice, “Since the young master got her number, Helian Jiao Er has been asking these people to look for her whereabouts. She even thought that my young master was just a village girl, so she commanded them to take her out on sight.”
Everyone heard it and was suddenly in an uproar!
Helian Wei Wei looked indifferently at Helian Jiao Er who stood opposite her. “Just being prettier than you was enough reason for you to kill someone. Madam Su has really raised a good daughter.”
“You…” Helian Jiao Er took a deep breath. She knew that she could not confront her directly, and so tears started falling down from her pretty eyes. “Elder sister, you think about it carefully, who are these people? They are all servants of the court. Even if I am the second young lady of the General’s Residence, I still wouldn’t be able to command these servants!.”
Helian Wei Wei raised a brow. “Are you sure you can’t command them? But someone else could, though. What do you think? Lord Liao?”
“Well… I don’t know about this matter.” Liao Wuliang’s forehead was overflowing with his sweat. “Princess Consort, this is the nature of servants. They pretend to obey but rebel secretly. Sometimes, I don’t even know what they have done behind my back.”
Helian Wei Wei smiled. “In other words, you are saying this thing has nothing to do with you and Helian Jiao Er. Did the servants act on their own? Lord Liao, are you taking me for a fool? Why exactly did you allow Helian Jiao Er to command your people? Hmm… I think your wife needs to know the reason…”
