Chapter 539: Dealing With Helian Wei Wei
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Do you really take the stewards of my Wei Ze World as decoration? The reason I employ them is for them to replace all of you one day!
Helian Wei Wei raised her gaze unhurriedly. It appeared like there was an array of flowing stars in her eyes and the radiance was eye-catching.
People always say that the stewards within a family must not be fired recklessly because it is not easy to find people who are familiar with the property. Steward Sun, do you think that the stewards who could manage my Wei Ze World and open shops collecting data in various regions of the country, could possibly be inferior compared to cowards like you who only know how to talk?


Replace us, replace us? Haha, haha! It’s us who have lost, oh we’ve lost…

After laughing loudly, Steward Sun kept repeating things such as
We have lost
.
Upon seeing him like this, the other five stewards were also in a daze. Their gazes lowered halfway, their hair was a mess without any trace of the overbearing and pressuring appearance they previously had.
From the Empress to these stewards, she stood firmly and fought steadily, advancing gradually.


So many people assumed that she opened Wei Ze World for profit.
In fact, she was thinking about the future of who would be best to replace them!
This was truly a good set up.
With such a setup, even if one were a minister with an important post, he might or might not have won even with careful deployment.
However, she, a useless lady that they had neglected for such a long time, actually reversed heaven and earth with her strength alone and disrupted the turmoil in this kingdom!
They had truly lost…
It was dusk and the sun went down.
All the stewards in the entire General’s residence had been eliminated and expelled. All of them had been replaced with Helian Wei Wei’s men, all within 30 minutes.
She stood alone at the center of the courtyard, in a simple white garment with her long sleeves floating with the breeze.

Young Master.



Da Xiong knelt down on one knee.
Helian Wei Wei lifted the corners of her lips.
Seven years, it has been a full seven years. Back then, I was not even qualified to stand in the main courtyard.


Young Master…
Da Xiong opened his mouth, as though he was about to say something.
Helian Wei Wei lifted her gaze, her appearance was so surreal as if from a painting.
From this day onward, the Helian Clan has been returned! To! Its! Owner!


Yes!


Yes!


Yes!

The sound of kowtow echoed thrice, first the stewards of various regions, next, the imperial bodyguards of the residence, and last but not least, the thousands of hidden army led by Chi Yan!
The courtyard was filled with troops bowing down before Helian Wei Wei alone!
This scene reminded the older generation of the days when Old Master Helian was still alive.


Naturally, there were talks of this within the Capital, saying that the Helian family was truly about to rise up once more.
Upon hearing this news, Prime Minister Su who was already suffering from a severe illness threw up a mouthful of blood.
Before the night fell, he received Helian Wei Wei’s message.
Prime Minister Su squinted and with a cold expression, he said,
I will not meet her.


Is Prime Minister Su unwilling to meet me, or is he afraid to meet me?
Helian Wei Wei paced into the residence casually, the bodyguards protecting the residence had already been disposed of by Little Seventh Prince, who was following behind her.
Prime Minister Su looked at her and coughed a few times, giving her a fake smile.
Why would the Princess Consort say that? I have been sick for many days, unable to appear at court or meet any important guests. This is something that everybody knows, and it is also the same reason that I have mentioned just now for not being able to meet Princess Consort.


Such manners that Lord Su has.
Helian Wei Wei laughed,
I know that merely yesterday, Lord Su had pulled Helian Guang Yao down and now you are planning to retake the forces of the Su family. However, you realized that even with Helian Guang Yao gone, it is really hard to collect the forces back. Doesn’t Lord Su want to know why this is the case?

Once Prime Minister Su heard the name, Helian Guang Yao, he was so angry that his hand which was gripping his sleeve started to shake.
Helian Wei Wei continued,
That is because the forces that Lord Su had previously sent out had all fallen into my hands. I suppose I don’t have to teach Lord Su about the parable of the sandpiper and the clam who fought each other and both were caught by the fisherman?


You!
Prime Minister Su reached out a hand and pressed it against his chest.


Helian Wei Wei casually straightened her robe.
Even getting close to Helian Guang Yao and taking away your daughter’s beloved girl, those were all my doings. I did all that just to let Prime Minister Su get a taste of how it feels to have your son-in-law take your home away!


You, you…
Prime Minister Su was in so much pain that he was bent at the waist.
Helian Wei Wei smiled faintly.
It’s getting late. Rest well, Prime Minister Su. With the condition of your health, you probably won’t last a few days. I was just curious, so I came to ask you, does a slap in the face feel nice?


You, pfft!
Prime Minister Su could not hold it in anymore, a sudden turning in his throat caused him to spit out huge mouthfuls of blood.
Helian Wei Wei wiped the spot where it stained as a glimmer of smile was showing in her eyes.
How could I have forgotten that Lord Su cannot be angered with this illness?


Helian Wei Wei!
Prime Minister Su roared with all his might,
Did you think that once I am dead, you could have your revenge? Hahaha, so naive! An aristocrat of martial arts with such outstanding military achievements and the founding father of the kingdom, did you really think that the Empress and I were strong enough to bring Old Master Helian down? If there wasn’t a force strong enough to support us, who could touch him! Those are the ones that you couldn’t take revenge on even if you obtained the Helian family! They wanted to kill Old Master Helian, and so Old Master Helian is dead, do you know why? His military merits were too outstanding, even the Emperor does not want to see the Helian family prosper! Haha, haha!

Prime Minister Su laughed uncontrollably and coughed at the same time, with a pleased look on his pale face.
Helian Wei Wei bent down and leaned over,
Isn’t that just three elders and a muddleheaded monarch? Naturally, I have my own plans to deal with them. The most important thing is for me to see Prime Minister Su’s family going bankrupt and being scattered, lying here like a rotten egg. That is my main objective.


You, pfft, pfft…pfft!

Prime Minister Su spat out blood once more and his eyes bulged. Then, he went completely out of breath.


As Helian Wei Wei left the Su Manor, she heard the sounds of the death knell.
As for her, she was getting closer to her goal…
It was nighttime. Deep in the Imperial Palace in the South Study.
Below the layers of curtains, the Emperor sat amidst the white smoke, using alchemy to lengthen his life. He was getting increasingly obsessed to a certain extent!
The three elders sat opposite him and their voices low,
Your Majesty, this Helian Wei Wei really must be dealt with!


Isn’t she quite good?
The Emperor laughed, looking at the elixir in his palms like a crazed man.
Why must she be dealt with?

Looking at him in this state, the three elders lowered their voices,
She must be dealt with, not because of her actions lately, but because of the possession incident that caused so much trouble a while ago. The old ministers suspect that this Helian Wei Wei had really been possessed! The way she’s doing things is nothing like her old self, and that water-pump she invented at Fuping had never been heard before. This person is definitely possessed! Does Your Majesty still remember how scary it was to be possessed? A worshipper once said, once a possessed person appears, it means that the devil is at work, and by then Your Majesty’s throne may even be threatened…
