The Anarchic Consort [ Chapter 1 - 199 ]

Chapter 94: His Highness Entreaties

Eunuch Sun, who followed at Baili Jia Jue’s side year-round to serve him, didn’t even dare to breathe heavily. He grasped the handkerchief in his hand and continuously attended to his forehead, secretly dabbing at the cold sweat that was coming out.

He was thinking in his heart [Master, you absolutely must not say anything to provoke Retired Emperor. Otherwise, if Retired Emperor gets even angrier, some very unfortunate things could happen. He’d certainly give an order to eliminate all the eyewitnesses……The ones who ultimately would be out of luck would be these servants like us……]

“What did you previously promise?” Baili Jia Jue yawned as if no one was around, turned his body and straightened out his cuffs, calmly and leisurely, continuing as always to be indifferent and graceful.

Seeing that appearance, Retired Emperor ferociously gnawed at his gums, “That’s right, at that time, I’d agreed. As long as you were willing to choose a consort, you could choose anyone……”

“It’s good that Imperial Grandfather remembered your promise.” Baili Jia Jue casually looked up, the tone of his voice was indifferent, his words were indolent, “And here I thought that Imperial Grandfather’s words won’t count again.”

Eunuch Sun[:……Amitabha, may the Buddha preserve us. My Third Prince, could you speak a few words less, dear ancestors, my God. Did you not see that Retired Emperor was so angry that his beard is already standing on ends! You still dared to speak this way, argh!]

Retired Emperor gripped the teacup in his hand tightly, he was so angry that his white eyebrows knitted at both ends. “You! How could I think that you would choose a……huff huff, you tell me, why did you want to choose Helian Wei Wei!”

“She won the academy’s exam. This was part of our agreement. There was no way out of it.” Baili Jia Jue spoke emotionlessly, as if he was only declaring a fact.

Unfortunately, hearing this fact made Retired Emperor want to let out a string of curses!

[Was it possible for you to have no way out of it? How many reasons and excuses did you use that year when you ran away from the consort selection banquet that I had arranged.]

[And now, you say you had no way out of it? Were you the kind of person that would allow others to decide things for you! ! !]

Retired Emperor sucked in one long breath. He originally wanted to control his volume, but the result wasn’t as good as he wanted, “Did you already know she would win?”

Nevertheless, Baili Jia Jue became more polite, and gave Retired Emperor a bit of face. Therefore, he also didn’t immediately answer and instead, thought about it for awhile before he opened his mouth and as calmly as gentle winds and floating clouds said, “I’ve considered it.”

Then that’s as if he knew! Retired Emperor gnashed teeth and made sounds, ”That Helian Jiao Er is the one who genuinely has both talent and kindness. She may even have a phoenix constitution concealed within her body, yet you insist on choosing a floozy? Why does it have to be her of all people!”

“She’s more interesting.” Even though he’s facing such a raging Retired Emperor, Baili Jia Jue’s attitude still didn’t change in the slightest, and was even standing there flicking his fingers, as if he wanted to flick off the pollen from his fingertips. However, when he recalled how that fearless fox actually revealed she was making fun of him just now, the light in his eyes became somewhat ice-cold for a split second.

Eunuch Sun was flabbergasted, so it was for this reason!

[So it was for this reason that Third Highness, you just had to insist on going head to head with Retired Emperor!]
