“Ever since the beginning, kings would find scapegoats to sacrifice for their loved ones. Why don’t Your Highness…”

Before Eunuch Sun could finish his sentence, Baili Jia Jue interrupted faintly. His voice was cold just as usual, “That kind of ignorant measure is for those with little means. I just want the whole world to know that Helian Wei Wei is mine. Oh, and for those who stand in my way, I will kill a way out.”

As Baili Jia Jue finished his last sentence, Eunuch Sun shuddered inexplicably.

He turned back, and glanced at Eunuch Sun, “Don’t let the princess consort know about today’s matter.”

“Understood.” Eunuch Sun hurriedly dropped his gaze and did not dare to speak anymore.

When Baili Jia Jue returned to his bedroom after a bath, Helian Wei Wei had already fallen asleep. She lay sideways on the bed of pure gold, and her hands were still holding onto the snack box filled with sliced apricot cakes.

After staring at her for a moment, Baili Jia Jue leaned down, and pulled her into his arms, as if he was holding his favorite toy. “I only have you in the whole world, you can’t betray me…”

The night darkened.

At this moment, the consort candidates were preparing for the upcoming selection of the secondary consort.

After Helian Wei Wei woke up, she did not have a look at the clothes presented by Eunuch Sun. Instead, she gargled with mint water, and casually said, “His Highness wasn’t in a good mood yesterday, you should ask for the elders’ understanding. I have some money here, Eunuch Sun should know who to give it to.”

Eunuch Sun was tidying the clothes, and his hands halted. He lifted his head and glanced at Helian Wei Wei with surprise in his eyes. The princess consort knew about last night?

Helian Wei Wei did not know about the specific, but could roughly guess. She smiled at Eunuch Sun, and said, “His Highness isn’t someone who can’t differentiate the right from the wrong. Nothing that he does isn’t for the good of the people, and we can walk out of the palace proudly due to His Highness. Eunuch Sun is a wise person who has spent the longest time around His Highness. You must know more of His Highness than me. I shall say nothing more, and you should divide the money by your own means.”

If it was someone else, Eunuch Sun would definitely decline the offer of money.

However, he knew that the princess consort was spending to restore His Highness’ reputation.

He had served three generations of emperors and empresses.

However, there was no one like this girl. Her action was… so heartwarming!

How would the emperor feel if he found out about this?

Eunuch Sun smiled, and immediately replied, “Yes!”

He then went to the palaces with the money. The elders’ worries were relieved, and they called their grandchildren over.

The elders said, “If anyone dares to speak ill of His Highness and the princess consort, I’ll break that person’s leg!”

Eunuch Sun listened satisfyingly, and recalled about the selection of secondary consort later at the last moment!

After he rushed back to the palace, Helian Wei Wei had already been groomed. She wore a war robe-like red dress, and its mermaid-style slit vaguely revealed her legs, manifesting her elegant queen-like aura!

Coupled with the pure black feathery umbrella supported on her fair fingers, each, and every one of her movements was gracefully made, and effortlessly beautiful.

Some people were born with a fatal charm that was neither publicized nor eye-catching. They were like cold snowflakes silently descending from the sky, humble and courteous. Her eyes were especially bright and clear, and the smile on her lips was spotless and warm, uniquely different from the others.

Eunuch Sun thought half-consciously. If we could only look at the aura instead of her face, the princess consort would definitely be in the top five.
