Nanqianyue hummed in agreement and gestured, "Please leave, don't keep me from getting my beauty sleep."
Xiao Chen looked puzzled; Nan Nan hadn't taught him this word. "What does it mean?"
As he asked the question, he spread his palm out in front of Nanqianyue, indicating that she should write.
Nanqianyue's expression darkened, and he raised his hand, saying, "Go away, or I'll slap you."
Xiao Chen silently withdrew his hand, his mouth slightly open as if he wanted to say something.
Nanqian raised his hand a few centimeters higher, his face fierce, and said, "Go!"
Xiao Chen had no choice but to shut his mouth and leave, looking back every few steps.
The fighting outside finally stopped.
Nanqianyue sighed deeply and turned to go back to bed, but out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of a figure holding a stick reflected on the door.
She twitched her toes and immediately guessed who it was.
creak—
The door was flung open by Nan Qianyue, and a wooden stick immediately came crashing down.
Nanqianyue caught the wooden stick with her bare hands, staring at the assailant with a deathly expression. "What are you doing? Trying to murder your daughter?"
The woman in green suddenly opened her eyes. "Miss! It's you! I thought that scoundrel was so bold as to come through the main gate!"
As the moon slackened its grip on the wooden stick, it said, "Where did this lecher come from? You must have misheard me."
The woman in green opened her eyes wide, holding the wooden stick earnestly, and said, "This servant didn't mishear, it's the Grand Prince of Nan Jing—"
Nan Qianyue covered her mouth with her hand and whispered, "What do you mean by east, west, south, and north? Are you still half asleep? Go to sleep!"
Last time, the two of them fought inside the house and didn't wake up the girls in green, but today they have sharp ears.
Green-clad nodded, and only after the southward migration did Yue release her.
"Where is Ayu?" Nanqianyue asked solemnly.
The woman in green looked at the courtyard gate with a pained expression. "She's been squatting at the gate the whole time."
"There at night too?" Nan Qianyue exclaimed in surprise.
They really are people Xiao Chen trained; they're quite stubborn.
"Go and call her back to sleep. She'll serve me well when I get ready tomorrow," Nan Qianyue said, then closed the door and went to sleep.
——
The Princess's Residence.
In the dimly lit room, the eldest princess looked at the woman before her, Song Suihuan, with a hint of mockery.
She said lightly, "Can't you see my current situation? If I help you and accidentally expose myself, wouldn't that be an even greater crime? That's the Poet Immortal, after all."
Her last sentence was extremely sarcastic.
Song Suihuan made a vow with three fingers, "Cousin, I promise that this matter will not involve you, otherwise I will be punished by being imprisoned for life."
The princess picked up the small wine glass with her thumb and middle finger, tilted her head back, and drank it all in one gulp.
"She has bodyguards around her, so it's not easy to make a move."
Song Suihuan was astonished, "The Prime Minister of the South actually dares to train secret guards?"
The princess's eyes instantly turned cold. "Why ask so many questions?"
She didn't want too many people to know that Prince Anzheng had gone to such lengths to protect the Southern Migration.
Song Suihuan wisely shut up and got back to the point, "Does my cousin have any plans?"
The eldest princess gave a cold laugh and said quietly, "Then let the guards see it. It's dazzling in the open, and impossible to guard against in the dark."
Song Suihuan couldn't wait any longer, "Please enlighten me, cousin."
The eldest princess smiled coldly, "Bai Shu is back. If you use ordinary medicine on her, it won't work. You need to use a kind of poison that is undetectable and has no antidote. Only a man can cure it."
At this point, the eldest princess's eyes darkened as if they were filled with poison, and the memory of how, two years ago, all her efforts ultimately led to her being used as a stepping stone for Nanqianyue came flooding back into her mind.
She likes to play like that, huh? Then let her play to her heart's content this time.
"We need to find a fool to help with this matter," the princess said dismissively.
Song Suihuan frowned. "Who?"
"Xiao Wu".
"The Fifth Princess?!"
...
At dawn, the southward migration moon was called out early.
Because we're going to the academy.
She followed Nan Yichu into the carriage absentmindedly, and then followed him into the school.
"Big sister, don't run around today, your little brother's knee isn't healed yet." Nan Yichu repeated what she had said at least ten times.
Nanqianyue nodded perfunctorily and found a seat at the back.
"Poet Immortal, this is my seat. Your seat is in front of me." A scholar bowed very politely to Nan Qianyue.
Nan Qianyue smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I thought I could sit anywhere."
The scholar patiently explained, "In the past, you could sit anywhere, but now you are seated according to your ranking. The higher your ranking, the closer your seat is to the front."
Nanqianyue twitched the corner of her mouth. What a realistic way of arranging things, just like when she was in elementary school.
The students took their seats, and since the teacher hadn't arrived, there was surprisingly no whispering among them.
Apart from the Fifth Princess and the Fourth Prince who arrived a few steps later.
"You haven't paid me back the hundred taels you lost to me last time. You're not trying to renege on your debt, are you?"
"Hush, this is a sacred place; let us not speak of vulgar matters."
"I'm speaking very softly. If you don't give it to me, I'll add interest."
"Here you go, I'll give it to you when I get back today."
"That's what you said yesterday!"
The two bickered as they walked through the school and arrived at a spot near the front.
Seeing that there was no one behind Nan Qianyue, the Fifth Princess moved over.
She patted Nanqianyue on the left shoulder, then stretched her head to the right.
As Nanqianyue turned her head from the right, she met the Fifth Princess's mischievous expression.
The Fifth Princess's expression froze. "Didn't I pat your left shoulder? Why did you turn around from the right?"
Nanqianyue blinked innocently and pointed to her right ear, saying, "I heard your gloating breathing."
The Fifth Princess took a moment to react, then gasped, "You know martial arts? You have internal energy! Your internal energy is profound!!"
Nanqianyue twitched her lips. "Ah, yes, I guess so."
