Chapter 799: Chapter 799 Slipped Away

After all, whether they had consummated their marriage or not, as soon as Yuwen Luanfei fell, they were all going to be widows.

Therefore, upon seeing Wenren Pingting, everyone set aside their past grievances and swarmed her to inquire about the situation.

Originally, Wenren Pingting had wanted to have a private chat with Bai Junjun. She had an intuition that Bai Junjun already knew who the murderer was but had kept silent for some reason. She was determined to find out.

But being crowded by these people, Wenren Pingting couldn’t ask anymore, and could only glance worriedly at Bai Junjun.

Bai Junjun clearly saw what Wenren Pingting was getting at and said, "Princess Consort, you take good care of your sisters. I can walk by myself."

Bai Junjun slipped away swiftly, leaving Wenren Pingting speechless.

Outside, Bai Junjun saw that the parlor, too, was brimming with a flock of beauties.

Bai Junjun couldn’t help but be startled. Were all these women the fair-weather friends of Yuwen Luanfei, afraid of his gynophobia?

Dian Hong, who had escorted her out, considerately explained, "All these are relatives of the Princess or the Dowager Consort, who have come to visit upon hearing of His Highness’ illness."

Bai Junjun then realized that they were not fair-weather friends, but all sorts of relatives...

It seemed Yuwen Luanfei’s wish for a quiet convalescence would be difficult to fulfill. Poor thing...

After sighing in sympathy, Bai Junjun patted Dian Hong on the shoulder.

"We’re almost at the main gate now. You go ahead with your duties, Miss Dian Hong. I can go out on my own."

Dian Hong was taken aback. Truthfully, she couldn’t bring herself to dislike the straightforward Bai Junjun, and today she was indeed very busy. So, she just smiled faintly and curtsied, "Then, thank you for your understanding, Miss Junjun."

"Go on, go on," Bai Junjun said nonchalantly, waving her hand and continuing alone towards the gate.

However, as soon as she reached the gate, she encountered Yuwen Jun.

At that moment, he was still clad in a royal purple robe, exuding an air of nobility.

Bai Junjun inwardly cursed her bad luck, pretending not to see the other person and continued walking out.

Yuwen Jun, however, couldn’t help but bend his eyes into a smile. Just as he was about to speak, Yuwen Song, who was following him, reached out with a tiger-paw grab, and blocked Bai Junjun’s path in a friendly and amiable manner.

"Junjun Girl, I was just looking for you."

"?"

Bai Junjun looked at the overly familiar Yuwen Song with some surprise, "Your Highness the Eldest Prince, do you perhaps wish to inquire something from me?"

After all, she and the Eldest Prince were separated by age, and under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t be so familiar.

Yuwen Song laughed heartily, "Junjun Girl is indeed sharp. Well, let’s cut to the chase and talk over here," suggesting that they move to the side door.

Saying so, he guided her towards the side door.

Yuwen Jun, instead of preventing this, silently followed the pair.

The eunuchs attending the two Princes were all startled, about to follow, but Yuwen Song cleverly glanced back with a smirk, "We have some private words to exchange, so wait here for us."

"..." Little Eunuch.

Bai Junjun, led to the side door by the two, touched her forehead with a somewhat helpless expression, "What do you want to talk about?"

"I heard you went to Kuntai Palace with my second brother this morning?"

"Mhm." Bai Junjun understood, it was about this matter.

The disappearance of the Dowager Empress was a matter of great import; if Yuwen Luanfei were to imply that the Dowager Empress had been killed by them, these two really wouldn’t be able to walk away unscathed.

"Mhm what? What is the situation inside the palace?" Yuwen Song patted Bai Junjun’s head somewhat roughly, looking very much like a boor.

"..." Bai Junjun rubbed the slightly painful area on her head, silently stepping back a few paces to stay out of the Eldest Prince’s reach.

"Your Highness the Eldest Prince, a girl’s head is not for knocking on."

Yuwen Song, taken aback, gave a resigned sigh, "Alright, alright, my mistake. Don’t act coy, just tell me."
