Chapter 710: Wei Wei Noticed Her Abnormalities

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

The Secretary of State for the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs asked questions endlessly until he had listened to Wang Ling’s entire narration. Then, he took a long time to ponder about it.

After a while, he asked the private advisor beside him with a serious expression, “Say, what would happen if I recruit the Third Princess Consort to help solve our ministry’s case?”

“His Highness would murder you, my Lord. Then, he will proceed to have your family arrested.” His mentor answered stoically, “You’re welcome to try it if you have a death wish.”

The Secretary of State for the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs was speechless in response and did not pursue the matter further. However, he still wanted to tell the process of the princess solving this case in the Golden Palace. His intuition told him that her investigation methods would very likely influence future students.

Thus, the next morning, almost everyone in the entire War Dragon Empire knew about the incident in the alley.

Within just a day, she managed to solve the missing person case that was unresolved for two weeks, without using any connections. People were greatly in awe of her sophisticated mind.

Some scholars even recorded the process of Helian Wei Wei’s investigation process into specialized books for other students to peruse seriously.

Due to this incident, the ministers who had neglected Helian Wei Wei in the past completely changed their opinions on her.

“No wonder the Retired Emperor agreed to the marriage between the Third Prince and Helian Wei Wei, she’s so impressive!”

“I remembered this brat when she was younger, she was overly submissive. However, look at her now, you really can’t judge someone by their appearance.”

“Indeed!”

Whether it was inside or outside of the palace, everyone was proud to have a princess like her.

Meanwhile, the patriarchs from the other families thought differently.

Initially, they were in no hurry.

After all, without even needing to raise their concerns, external and internal factors would always affect things to be in their favor.

After the Emperor had passed away, the Third Prince inherited the throne. However, he only married Helian Wei Wei and no one else.

They had constantly been by the Retired Emperor’s side and had helped him so much.

The Third Prince partly owed his achievements to their continuous support.

From their perspectives, the Retired Emperor could not simply discard them after using them like that.

However, the Elder Compound was no more and the royal family held full authority now.

They needed to fight for their families’ futures now. Otherwise, when the Third Prince was enthroned, the Helian clan would become the most powerful family and receive all its benefits.

Their daughters were born from honorable backgrounds too. Helian Wei Wei may be unique, but their daughters were quite decent as well!

Why should Helian Wei Wei be the only one that gets to enjoy the luxuries of such an enormous harem?

Since the Third Prince would not listen to them, they would wait for the Retired Emperor to return.

They had been married for so long, but Helian Wei Wei was still not pregnant yet. The Retired Emperor would surely panic at this news.

Even if the Retired Emperor was not anxious, the Third Prince would need to produce an heir when he inherited the throne. Otherwise, he would have to marry a concubine. This was the tradition inherited from the ancestors and cannot be changed.

At night, in the palace’s internal compound in Jiuchong Hall…

Helian Wei Wei feasted on her third meal that night. It comprised of spicy duck wings, chilled lotus root, as well as sweet and sour ribs. All of them were served in big bowls and placed on the wooden table.

Little Seven gnawed on one of the duck wings as he kneeled beside her. Sometimes, he would tease the Alsatian for fun. Then, an evil idea popped into his mind when he saw the dog’s large head. Thus, he asked, “Third Aunt, can I eat it?”

Helian Wei Wei choked on her water and coughed, blurting, “No.”

“Why not?” Little Seven inquired seriously, “I think it really wants to be eaten by me.”

The corners of Helian Wei Wei’s mouth slightly twitched, but she merely yawned lazily and replied, “That’s just your imagination.”

“Then I’ll feed it until it’s fatter. Third Brother says that it tastes better when it’s fatter.” The little one stated this with a straight face. Then, he stood up and tried to grab another duck wing to feed the Alsatian.

 However, he did not expect to find all three of the large bowls to be empty.

“Third Aunt! Where’s the food?” The little one looked glanced around and furrowed his brows.

Helian Wei Wei simply laid down languidly on the chaise lounge. Then, she plucked a few grapes and replied nonchalantly, “Of course, I ate all of them. Also, the duck wings aren’t spicy enough, so next time when you steal from the kitchen, remember to steal some chilies too.”

“No way, I’ll be caught by Third Brother if I steal chilies.” The little one appeared distressed as he mentioned this and added, “Third Aunt, you’ve been eating too much recently. Third Brother ordered me to look after you and not let you eat so much at night, it’s not good for your digestion. You and I are different after all, I can digest anything I eat, but now you’ve eaten so much again. When Third Brother finds out, he’ll make me dance pantless again, I’ll be a laughing stock for all the eunuchs.”

Helian Wei Wei looked at the vigorous little one by her legs and was instantly amused. So, she extended her arms and lifted him up, saying, “Letting you, a glutton, look after me? Didn’t you just bring me some food? I have some orange candies here, do you want them?”

“Third Aunt can have them, I know you’re not full yet, I can still get some goldfish later. It’s going to be a lot more difficult to steal the goldfish after grandfather comes back tomorrow.” The little one sighed heavily as he finished his sentence.

Helian Wei Wei pondered to herself. Are you planning to anger the Retired Emperor? You must be the only one in the world who would get so stressed over food.

However, her appetite had been rather voracious recently. Also, her throat was hoarse and thirsty all the time.

This peculiar sensation of thirst made it hard to control her appetite, especially at night.

What’s going on?

Helian Wei Wei woke from her idle stupor and sat up straight. Then, she looked at the little one in her embrace while she was deep in her thoughts.

“What’s wrong, Third Aunt?” The little one asked with a deep voice, “Are you still hungry? If you’re not full yet, I’ll steal more from the Imperial Kitchen. When I stole the duck wings earlier, I noticed that they were making steamed meat buns. It smelled delicious, would you like some?”

Helian Wei Wei did not pay any attention to his words, as she could not shake the feeling that something was out of place.

Is it because it’s nearly the full moon that my body seems abnormal?

No, that can’t be right.

Her reaction was not like this during the last full moon…

As if it were attuned to its master’s troubled state of mind, the Alsatian lifted its head and looked at Helian Wei Wei with a concerned gaze.

Helian Wei Wei reached out to pat its head, her elegant brows were slightly scrunched.

A voracious appetite that could not be satisfied no matter how much she ate, and her whole body felt fatigued constantly. Sometimes, she did not even want to move…

Wait for a second!

When was the last time I had my period?

Suddenly, Helian Wei Wei seemed to had an epiphany, as her brain spun rapidly to piece together the puzzle.

At last, she placed the teacup in her hand down. Her usually perceptive and relaxed expression, suddenly seemed startled for the first time.

Two months, I haven’t had my period for two months…

“Third Aunt?” The little one looked at her confusingly and seriously said, “Don’t be sad, I’ll get you the meat bun from the kitchen now!”

Helian Wei Wei held onto the little one’s hand and said blissfully, “There’s no need for that. Summon the imperial physician for me, but don’t tell anyone else.”
