Lin Xiuyan seemed to get angrier the more she spoke: "Are they blind?! How could I possibly hit my second sister!"
"I am simply following my mother's teachings to treat everyone as family and not to stand on ceremony."
"My second sister said she would teach me to write, so I taught her martial arts. They actually accused me of hitting her! It really made me furious!"
Ye Junfei was initially worried that she would suffer a loss, after all, the Princess Consort of Pingnan was really quite skilled in the art of palace intrigue.
Even Ye Qingwan had suffered at her hands before.
But when he heard her immediately adopt a villainous stance upon arrival, he knew he was in the clear.
He deeply felt that the Lin family mansion was too small and had too few people, which limited her potential.
It's not enough for her to only torment Zhou Chenyang!
Princess Pingnan's facial muscles twitched, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Opposite her lay the luminous pearl, its body covered in wounds.
When the guards helped the luminous pearl over, she could hardly believe her eyes.
Ye Mingzhu was her most beloved child, whom she cherished like a precious treasure.
But now that her precious daughter has been beaten like this by Lin Xiuyan, this lowly merchant girl, how could she not be angry?
However, Lin Xiuyan's words reminded her that she could not punish Lin Xiuyan without a suitable reason or excuse.
Princess Pingnan tried to calm herself down, turned to look at Lin Xiuyan, and her face regained its previous gentleness and kindness.
She asked Lin Xiuyan, "So you're not hitting Zhu'er, but teaching her martial arts?"
Ye Mingzhu cried, "Mother, who teaches martial arts like this? She's clearly hitting me!"
Lin Xiuyan ignored Ye Mingzhu's words.
She smiled sweetly at the Princess of Pingnan and said, "Yes, my second sister said she would teach me to read. As her sister-in-law, I should set an example first, so I taught her martial arts first."
After she finished speaking, she leaned over and looked at the luminous pearl, saying, "Second sister, you haven't practiced martial arts before, so you may not know that practicing martial arts requires enduring some physical pain."
"Your injury looks serious, but it's all superficial. It will heal in a couple of days."
"If you endure being beaten like this for several months, your skin will become thicker, and it won't hurt when others beat you in the future!"
Ye Mingzhu widened her eyes and said, "Mother, I don't want to learn martial arts!"
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said, "Second sister, don't be so delicate!"
"You said it yourself, everyone in the Prince's mansion is exceptionally talented."
"I know you're excellent, but I'm here to help you become even more excellent!"
"Don't worry, I will make sure you practice martial arts diligently from now on, and I'll beat you every time I see you."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "..."
Night Pearl: "…………"
How can someone talk about assaulting someone so confidently!
Ye Junfei's lips twitched as he said from the side, "Xiuyan has always been so helpful."
"Mother, there's no need to give her any special reward. We're all family, so there's no need to be so polite."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "..."
Is this a case of beating someone up and then demanding a reward from them?
Have some shame!
A flash of hatred crossed the Princess Consort of Pingnan's eyes.
She looked at Lin Xiuyan with a smile: "Judging from what Xiuyan said, it seems you really enjoy practicing martial arts?"
Lin Xiuyan nodded: "Yes, I have always longed for the heroic spirit of wandering the world with a sword since I was a child, so I have always wanted to learn martial arts."
"It's just that Chongqing is too small, and my father has never been able to find a skilled teacher to teach me martial arts."
The vast majority of her martial arts skills were taught by Qu Shuangyue.
Princess Pingnan smiled and said, "In that case, I will select someone to teach you martial arts!"
"He Shen, from now on, you will be in charge of teaching the Crown Princess martial arts."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Lin Xiuyan and said, "He Shen is my most trusted bodyguard. He doesn't know how good you are at martial arts yet, so why don't you two try your moves out in the courtyard first!"
He Shen responded and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Lin Xiuyan, saying, "Princess Consort, please!"
Lin Xiuyan glanced at He Shen, a man in his twenties with prominent temples, clearly a master of external martial arts.
Ye Junfei's peach blossom eyes turned slightly cold: "He Shen was the number one expert in last year's Liefeng Prefecture Martial Arts Tournament."
"He is qualified to teach Xiuyan martial arts."
"Mother, you might as well be more generous. If Xiuyan can beat He Shen, then you can give him to Xiuyan."
Princess Pingnan smiled and said, "Alright, when Xiuyan has mastered her skills and can defeat He Shen, I will select He Shen for her."
What she was really thinking was that today, He Shen would teach Lin Xiuyan a lesson.
Once Princess Anle leaves Liefeng Prefecture, Lin Xiuyan will have no reason to live, and we can just kill her.
She wouldn't let Lin Xiuyan live to the day she could defeat He Shen!
Ye Junfei looked at the Princess Consort of Pingnan and said, "Mother, you must keep your word."
Princess Pingnan nodded: "Of course."
Lin Xiuyan's outfit today was not suitable for fighting, so Princess Pingnan told her to go back and change before coming back.
As she was changing her clothes, Ye Junfei said to her, "He Shen, as the first place winner of last year's Liefeng Prefecture Martial Arts Tournament, is not to be underestimated."
"This time, the old hag wants to use her to deal with you and vent her anger for Yemingzhu."
"He wouldn't dare kill you, but you might suffer some physical pain." (www.cascoo.net)
Lin Xiuyan asked with a smile, "If you thought I was bound to lose, you wouldn't have made that kind of agreement with the old hag."
Ye Junfei sighed and said, "If I said I was standing up for you, would you believe me?"
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She poked her head out from behind the curtain and asked, "Who is more powerful, He Shen or Wu Dao?"
Ye Junfei replied, "Wu Dao learned the art of killing, while He Shen learned the art of strengthening the body."
"If it's a matter of stopping short of a fight, He Shen will win; if it's a fight to the death, the one who wins is Wu Dao."
Lin Xiuyan was somewhat surprised: "So, He Shen is quite capable too!"
Ye Junfei nodded: "So, how do you plan to fight this battle?"
If she loses, it means she has lost to Princess Pingnan, and she will likely be bullied and humiliated by Princess Pingnan in the future.
Ye Junfei had trained with her and knew her level of martial arts skills.
Lin Xiuyan asked, "If I were to fight He Shen normally, what are my chances of winning?"
Ye Junfei winked at her: "You don't even have one percent."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
That sounds pretty tragic!
She looked at him and asked, "You really don't think much of me?"
Ye Junfei shook his head: "No, I'm just telling the truth."
Lin Xiuyan laughed, a fierce fighting spirit flashing in her almond-shaped eyes: "That sounds quite interesting."
"I really enjoy things that are challenging."
Ye Junfei wasn't too surprised to see her like this: "You want to beat He Shen?"
Lin Xiuyan nodded: "Yes, do you have any good ideas?"
Ye Junfei's lips curled slightly as he looked at her and said, "No, I'm waiting for you to create a miracle."
Lin Xiuyan: "...Thank you!"
Creating a miracle? I can't believe he even thought of that!
