Chapter 467: Someone Underestimated His Highness And Wei WeiTranslator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The next day, Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue left covertly.
They would only be there for seven days. Therefore, they disguised their identities, not wanting to attract any attention.
Meanwhile, several stewards in the Helian family had gathered together to meet the elder, obviously fuming with anger.
“If she continues to be so unreasonable, we won’t compromise any further!”
“From my observation, she is merely an ignorant brat, yet she dares to interfere with our properties! This back and forth between us and her is endless! What if we lose our profits, who would be responsible for it?”
“Elder, our years of filial piety and deep relationships would be utterly sabotaged by her unnecessary interference. You need to step up and put a foot down on this matter!”
From his snowy white hair to the pristine white robe he was wearing, the passing of time was evident on the elder’s appearance. A hint of vileness could be felt in his glare, but he masked it well under a facade of ethereal elegance. He casually took a sip of tea, seemingly unbothered by Helian Wei Wei, and replied, “She is merely a naive and inexperienced lady that happens to be a little smart and knows her way around things. Why are you all so anxious? Don’t forget that she has no contributions at all, thus, she will fail and be forced to back down after half a month. Taking care of the properties in your hands is of greater importance now, make sure you acquire every possible silver. I’m sure she won’t be able to interfere with the other matters. The sea of power in the Capital is vast and deep, a princess consort with no authority like her, won’t be able to trifle with us, do you understand?”
All the stewards agreed with him and beamed with joy.
They had an epiphany after listening to his advice.
She was merely the Third Princess Consort. Even if the hidden army was protecting her in battle, she would be helpless against them in the field of politics.
The respected elders were deeply intertwined with their corruption. Even if she was the successor of the Helian family, it was merely an empty title with no real significance. How dare a meager woman attempt to control us? Hah, let’s see how badly she will fall from grace when the time comes!
Little did they know, as they were underestimating Helian Wei Wei, she had arrived at a small, inconspicuous county in the mountainous district, inside the Hebei boundary, with her accompanying ‘private advisor’.
The streets had little people as the sky was still dark. Other than the peddlers from several stalls on the street, there was barely any sign of human habitation.
As Helian Wei Wei pulled the curtain in her carriage to observe the surroundings, she instantly noticed the striking wealth gap in the area.
One might ask her the reason why she had assumed so, but the reason was clear as day to her.
As they traveled from the West City to East City, she realized that the houses in the West City were built with dried grass and yellow mud. On the other hand, an array of gigantic mansions were omnipresent in East City. They seemed to be as lavish and extravagant as the dwellings of the highest-ranking officials in the Capital.
Huh… it seems like the Land Emperors are living well here.
A smile faintly appeared on Helian Wei Wei’s face while Baili Jia Jue remained expressionless, his aura of nobility was still present despite his humble disguise.
A certain type of people did exist on earth, they would seem elegant and royal even if they dressed sloppily.
The official who was standing in front of the yamen, waiting to receive the newly-appointed county magistrate, rushed toward Baili Jia Jue to welcome him, without sparing a glance at Helian Wei Wei. Smiling brightly, he exclaimed, “You must be Lord Wei, I’ve heard so much about you, but seeing you in person is infinitely better! I’m greatly humbled to have you here!”
Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue would be using aliases in Fuping, thus she had chosen a surname that sounded similar to hers…
Still oblivious to his mistake, he continued, “I came very early to wait for you. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Private Advisor Zhang of the yamen here. I’ve been here for more than 10 years, hence I know every county magistrate that have worked here during that time. I have assisted many of them to rise in ranks too, so I will do my very best for Lord Wei as well!”
Helian Wei Wei understood the intention behind Private Advisor Zhang’s words. Even though they sounded pleasant to the ears, they were no more than empty flattery.
However, it was evident that he had identified the wrong person…
His hands had been outstretched for very long, but no one seemed to be responding to him. Thus, he could no longer contain his anger and began narrating his influences in the county’s yamen from the side.
Baili Jia Jue was unmoved and simply allowed him to carry on ranting, ignoring his extended hand.
He blabbered till his mouth was dry, his temper had already risen to its boiling point.
At that moment, Baili Jia Jue said calmly, in an inexplicably pleasant yet infuriating tone, “My surname is not Wei.”
Does that mean that I recognized the wrong person? Private Advisor Zhang was slightly dumbfounded, his chest inflating and deflating with anger. If your surname isn’t Wei, then you should’ve told me early on! My hands have been outstretched for half a day- it became numb!
“If you are not Lord Wei, then…” Private Advisor Zhang shifted his eyes and landed on Helian Wei Wei, who was wearing a white outfit. There’s only both of them here. If it’s not him, it’s this person I’m looking at. Isn’t he a bit too small? I’ve never seen someone so young becoming the county magistrate!
Helian Wei Wei had enough fun watching His Highness torturing this poor soul. Hence, she stood up and said with a smile, “Private Advisor Zhang has never seen me before, it’s only natural that you mistook me for someone else.”
“Ha… Haha… Yes, yes, yes… My eyes can sometimes be very blurry.”
I dared to say that I’m looking forward to meeting him but I can’t even recognize him! Private Advisor Zhang felt as though he was slapping his own face.
However, this little dark face in front of me looks very weak.
Someone like him can never make it to the top.
Private Advisor Zhang had been in Fuping for many years and had people supporting him from behind. Hence, he had vastly underestimated Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue, unable to suppress his arrogance and judgmental mind.
Most of the people who came to Fuping County were influential individuals that would simply leave after making a fortune here.
Otherwise, they were banished here, having been assigned to some insignificant positions as they were unwanted in the imperial court.
From Private Advisor Zhang’s inspection, these two people in front of him belonged to the latter. Firstly, he had never heard of the news of a young master, from a certain family in the Capital, was coming from the imperial court to work here. Moreover, they did not receive any request from any family to take care of their child. Based on their unimpressive outfits, they don’t seem to be the sons of influential families.
If he is sensible, I will let him do as he pleases, and agree with everything he says.
If he isn’t… then, I shall let him have a taste of pain and suffering!
Helian Wei Wei did not miss the sudden hint of malice that flashed across Private Advisor Zhang’s face. Her eyes met with Baili Jia Jue’s as she twirled the silver ring on her ring finger.
An identical mischievous look glimmered in the couple’s eyes.
However, His Highness’ eyes seemed a little colder than hers.
Even a little Private Advisor like him is dared to be so blatantly lawless, looks like there are things to be dug out in this Fuping County…
Suddenly, a dreadful shriek echoed from behind them, yelling, “Help! Help me!”
Helian Wei Wei turned her head around, only to see two brutes dragging a girl by her hair, forcibly hauling her across the ground toward somewhere…
