Chapter 124 - 121 They All Bully Her

Chapter 124: Chapter 121 They All Bully Her

Yan Jiaojiao: "You didn’t finish writing, and what you wrote isn’t as good as Xuanbao’s, doesn’t that mean you have lost?"

"..."

Princess Kangyi stomped her foot in anger and retorted furiously, "I haven’t lost, it’s you who are deceiving people, you and Xuanbao colluded to trick me out of my silver, wanting me to buy you jewelry from Treasure House, you’re dreaming, I won’t acknowledge it!"

With such fine handwriting, how could it possibly be that she never practiced before?

Princess Kangyi then addressed Master Han, "Master, just now Yan Jiaojiao and Yan Huan didn’t write a single character and also left their seats, should they be punished?"

Master Han rapped his ruler on his palm, "Those who just left their seats must copy a hundred large characters."

Classroom rules, one must not leave their seat without permission.

Yan Huan: "..."

Yan Jiaojiao: "..."

Princess Kangyi, this professional tattletale and crybaby, was truly irritating to death!

Princess Kangyi felt pleased when she saw Yan Jiaojiao’s face turn sullen.

Seeing Yan Jiaojiao and Yan Huan being punished, Ruo Xuan, whom they were trying to encourage earlier, spoke up, "Master, Jiaojiao and Brother Huan were here to give me guidance on writing. Brother Han Xiu and Brother Yan Feng were also here for that. If they all have to be punished, then Princess Kangyi, although she did write, also left her seat just now. Should she be punished as well?"

If there’s going to be a punishment, let’s all be punished together!

Not a single one should be spared!

Master Han: "Anyone who moved even half a step away from their seat must be punished, the princess must copy a hundred large characters as well."

Princess Kangyi glared at Ruo Xuan and couldn’t help but raise her hand to hit her: "My leaving the seat was all your fault! You’re just a lowly-born commoner, a mere companion reader. What right do you have to speak here? Shut your mouth!"

Ruo Xuan instinctively dodged, bumping into the slender Zhang Qing behind her, making him step back and even step on his foot.

Xuanyuan Que frowned, he steadied Ruo Xuan with one hand and deflected Princess Kangyi’s hand with the other, his eyes extremely cold: "Stop!"

Master Han also got angry: "Princess Kangyi’s physical assault will result in an additional punishment of copying a hundred large characters."

Princess Kangyi cried out, "This is unfair, Master, they are clearly bullying me, and you don’t punish them. I’m going to tell Granny, you’re all bullying me!"

With a stomp of her foot, she ran outside!

Master Han was unconcerned. The Empress Dowager was reasonable; even The Emperor had to copy his punishments under his tutelage, not a single character less.

Yan Jiaojiao secretly made a face at Princess Kangyi: What a crybaby tattletale!

Xuanyuan Que didn’t want to waste time and directly asked, "Master, I have finished writing my characters, may I be excused from class now?"

Master Han glanced over and was very satisfied with Xuanyuan Que’s writing, speaking gently, "Yes. I have two books here, Ninth Prince may take them to read."

If it weren’t for the Empress Dowager wanting the Ninth Prince to spend more time with the other children, the Ninth Prince would have had no need to study these things at all.

Master Han handed over two books to Xuanyuan Que.

Xuanyuan Que stood up to receive them, bowed to Master Han, then turned to Ruo Xuan, "Are you leaving or not?"

Ruo Xuan immediately stood up and bowed, "Master, your student takes leave first."

Then she whispered to Yan Jiaojiao and her siblings, "Jiaojiao, Brother Huan, I’m leaving class first, come find me to play after you finish writing the characters!"

Having said so, she grabbed Xuanyuan Que’s hand and they left together, afraid that a moment’s delay might result in being kept behind.

Yan Jiaojiao watched with eyes shining as Ruo Xuan and Xuanyuan Que left together: Wuuu... Aren’t best friends supposed to share weal and woe together?

Why did Xuanbao leave with my little cousin and not care about me?

Three hundred characters, can I finish writing them before the sky turns dark?

~

Upon exiting the classroom, Ruo Xuan couldn’t wait to let go of Xuanyuan Que’s hand, "Goodbye, Brother Xuanyuan!"

Xuanyuan Que called after her, "Don’t be late for this afternoon’s class."

The afternoon lesson was chess.

"I know!" Ruo Xuan casually asked Xuanyuan Que, "Brother Xuanyuan, are you going hunting with us? Zhang Jie and Xue Jiajie also came."

Xuanyuan Que nodded, "Sure, Grandmother happens to want some braised pigeon."

Madame Xuanyuan, who had been planning to check on the children’s learning progress, "..."

When did she ever want braised pigeon?

Madame Xuanyuan watched her little grandson with an amused smile.

Xuanyuan Que’s face turned red, and he casually bowed, "Grandmother."

Ruo Xuan, seeing that Madame Xuanyuan was pleased, said, "Madame Xuanyuan, would you like some braised pigeon? Brother Xuanyuan and I will hunt a couple for you."

Madame Xuanyuan chuckled, "Oh! Xuanbao is so good. Grandma loves braised pigeon the most, right, Xiaojiu?"

The last sentence was directed at her little grandson.

Xuanyuan Que nodded calmly, "We’ll leave first."

After speaking, he took Ruo Xuan by the sleeve and left.

Madame Xuanyuan almost burst into laughter as she watched their retreating figures seemingly running away. She had wanted to tease her little grandson a bit more when Princess Kangyi called out from afar, "Auntie Grandma, you have to stand up for me!"

Madame Xuanyuan’s face changed, pretending not to hear, she exclaimed loudly, "Oh my, Goudan’s grandmother said their sow is about to give birth! I need to check on it!"

Having said that, she hurriedly ran down the hill after Ruo Xuan and Xuanyuan Que!

She ran even faster than Princess Kangyi.

Catching up to Ruo Xuan and Xuanyuan Que, she whispered as she passed them, "Run, trouble is coming!"

Then she took the lead and ran ahead.

Madame Xuanyuan was afraid of her niece from her maternal home!

Always coming to her for help.

Children need to learn to solve their own problems!

Why bother her, an adult?

Madame Xuanyuan neither wanted to get involved nor did she bother; she simply avoided the issue.

She was only hoping that Princess Kangyi couldn’t bear the grievances, couldn’t handle the hardship, and would hurry back to the Capital City.

The Protectorate Duke’s Residence had sent someone over, simply hoping that Princess Kangyi and Xiaojiu would develop a childhood sweetheart relationship, but sadly for her grandchildren, she didn’t agree with this approach at all!

She knew that because she didn’t choose her own niece as the Empress, or allow her niece to enter the palace as a concubine, her sister-in-law held a grudge against her.

But she had said it before, the descendants of the Protectorate Duke’s Residence must rely on military achievements, governance merits, and real talent to maintain the family’s distinguished status from generation to generation, not by marrying a daughter into the palace and hoping for eternal favor and long-lasting wealth.

After her elder brother passed away, her maternal family didn’t understand her good intentions, and with such a stubborn sister-in-law, the Empress Dowager was even more averse to her descendants marrying her niece.

If it had not been to avoid too much strife with her maternal family, she would have made it a rule that the women of the Protectorate Duke’s Residence may not marry Princes or grandsons!

...

Xuanyuan Que and Ruo Xuan came down the hill together, returned to the Ruo Family, called over Zhang Jie, Xue Jiajie, and other kids, took their equipment, and went up into the hills together.

With Zhang Qian and Ruo Zhou, two big lads nearly grown, looking after the younger ones, and the County Magistrate’s wife arranging for two bodyguards to follow, Granny Lei, knowing Xuanyuan Que was accompanied by secret guards, let them go up the hill to play with peace of mind.

On the hill, Ruo Xuan arrived at the spot where she had hunted last time. She took out a slingshot and said, "It will do right here, this is where I caught those wild rabbits and pigeons last time."

Zhang Lian looked around and could not help but say, "Impossible, this place clearly has frequent human traffic, no wild chickens would dare show up. And you think you can hit a wild chicken or rabbit with a slingshot? Do you think the wild chickens are dumb, or do you think we’re dumb?"

"Cluck cluck cluck..." At that moment, a wild chicken came fluttering and running by.

Ruo Xuan pulled back her slingshot and a stone flew out, hitting the wild chicken in the head, knocking it unconscious!

Zhang Lian: "..."
