The Anarchic Consort (Book 1)

241-245

All were silent in the midst of detoxification and couldn't detect what happened.

Only Baili Jia Jue slowly and deliberately twirling his fingers, his black ring emitted black light, the image reflected in his pupils, appear particularly bright. He looked at how Helian Wei Wei used her power, like a smile yet not a smile...
This woman was like a bottomless mystery.

He genuinely wanted to know what she would look like when he peeled away the layers of her mystery one by one.
Baili Jia Jue curled his thin lips evilly.

Finally, the last person was also detoxified by Helian Wei Wei. The bluish colour of his face started fading and the usual healthy red cheeks were restored.
"You must not move around yet." Helian Wei Wei stood up, brushed the dust off her body, and smilingly said, "Your bodies are still too weak. Wait until this incense finished burning, and then we'll see."
Being able to detoxify their poison already made the ministers amazed. Now they heard that they could restore their martial spirit with only the time it took an incense stick to burn.

Everyone could not help but look at Helian Wei Wei.

Although they were not like those madams and young ladies of the boudoirs who love to talk about the rumours and slanders in the capital, they also knew that the eldest daughter of the Helian family was useless.

But today, she unexpectedly solved the bone-eroding poison that nobody could solve!

She pulled all of them from death back to life!
The ministers did not know how to describe their mood at this moment. They only looked at Helian Wei Wei. For a moment, their heart seemed to overturn with all kind of flavours: sour, sweet, bitter, and salty. The feelings were uncommon.

"Girl, the great favour this time has earned my Nalan family's undying gratitude!" Old General Nalan was full of heroism, "Speak anytime you have a need of the Nalan family!"
Even Imperial Physician Jiang, who was known as the "god doctor whose hands could bring the dying back to life" was at Helian Wei Wei's side and said enthusiastically, "It was unexpected that the bone-eroding poison was solved using this method. By being immersed in boiling water, the poison was removed from the pore, and those medicinal materials certainly played a helpful role."

Yuan Ming chuckled, "This old man is so silly and naive."
"You can shut up." After answering Yuan Ming's words in her stream of consciousness, Helian Wei Wei turned her head and said, "Retired Emperor, I have something else to do. Since the poison has been cleared up, my friend and I will ask to be excused first."

Friend?
Eunuch Sun's eyes automatically fell on his master.

His Highness had to follow when the Retired Emperor was seriously hurt?
"You go first." Baili Jia Jue's face was cold and handsome, a smile was plastered on his face. "I'll stay here and rest for a while."

Helian Wei Wei frowned, "Rest? Are you injured?"
"No." As if he were trapped, Baili Jia Jue rubbed his eyes with his slender fingers. "We walked the whole night. It's too tiring."

Helian Wei Wei nodded, showing that she understood, "Then you'll wait for me here first."
"Ok." Baili Jia Jue slowly curled his mouth.
Eunuch Sun watched by his side and said nothing, but in his heart, he bounced up and down, [Pretending, His Highness was definitely pretending again!]

"Oh, by the way...." Helian Wei Wei, who was about to lift her legs and walk away, looked at Baili Jia Jue and narrowed her eyes, "When did your eyes get healed?"

Baili Jia Jue paused and calmly lowered his eyes, "When you cut your hand."
"What did I say?" Helian Wei Wei muttered, if he had recovered already earlier, he shouldn't have made her pull him all the way back here. While thinking, Helian Wei Wei turned her head to Eunuch Sun, "Eunuch Sun, please prepare a room for my friend and let him sleep for a while. I'll take care of my things soon."
