Princess Pingnan roared in fury, "Stop!"
She really didn't expect that Lin Xiuyan would dare to hit the luminous pearl right in front of her!
This shows they completely disregard her!
It would be a miracle if Lin Xiuyan listened to the Princess Consort of Pingnan; she slapped Ye Mingzhu several more times with both hands.
Princess Pingnan felt sorry for Ye Mingzhu and wanted to stop Lin Xiuyan.
Lin Xiuyan turned to look at her and asked, "Your Highness, do you also want to learn martial arts?"
"Although you are a bit older, it's never too late to start learning anything you want to learn in this life."
Her eyes were clear, and there was even a slight smile on her face, but it still made the Princess of Pingnan feel a chill in her heart.
She shouted angrily, "Lin Xiuyan, how dare you!"
Lin Xiuyan looked puzzled and said, "I'm not very brave. I'm just teaching my second sister martial arts."
“When learning martial arts, it’s inevitable that there will be bumps and bruises. I understand that Your Highness is worried about me.”
"But Your Highness must have heard the saying, 'A doting mother spoils her son.' I am doing this for my second sister's own good, so please do not stop me."
After she finished speaking, she looked down at the luminous pearl and said, "Second sister, don't be afraid. I'm not hitting you. I'm just doing this for your own good and to teach you martial arts."
Ye Mingzhu cried with tears in her eyes: "Mother, save me, I don't want to learn martial arts!"
How could Princess Pingnan not stop it? If Lin Xiuyan continued to beat Ye Mingzhu like this, even if she didn't kill her, she would easily leave scars.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Mingzhu doesn't need to learn martial arts!"
The maids tried to pull Lin Xiuyan away, but Ye Qingwan blocked her way, saying, "The Crown Princess is teaching the Second Miss martial arts; it's for her own good!"
"Anyone who dares to stop the Crown Princess is harming the Second Miss."
After she finished speaking, none of the maids dared to make a move.
Lin Xiuyan smiled and looked at Princess Pingnan, saying, "Learning martial arts is truly a wonderful thing."
"Putting everything else aside, let's talk about how Granny Xu deliberately tried to beat me up today under the pretense of teaching me manners."
"If I hadn't been skilled in martial arts to defend myself, I would have been crippled by her."
"If my second sister gets married and her husband's family makes things difficult for her like this, having martial arts skills will at least ensure she doesn't suffer losses."
Princess Pingnan looked coldly at Lin Xiuyan, her gaze sharp as a knife even through the veil.
Having lived two lives, Lin Xiuyan had seen all sorts of situations, so why would she be afraid of the gaze of a woman from the inner quarters?
She looked directly at him with a smile, her eyes clearly telling the Princess of Pingnan:
If anyone dares to bully her, she'll cripple the Night Pearl!
Princess Pingnan said coldly, "I really underestimated you before."
Lin Xiuyan smiled: "I am grateful for the Princess's kindness. I have never looked down on you."
Princess Pingnan gritted her teeth and said, "I told you Mingzhu doesn't need to learn martial arts, so release her immediately!"
Lin Xiuyan raised an eyebrow slightly: "So, these things in the Prince's mansion that we think are good for each other are things we can learn if we want to, and things we can choose not to learn if we don't want to!"
"If that's the case, does it mean I don't have to learn etiquette if I don't want to?"
Princess Pingnan looked at her coldly: "Etiquette represents the image of the royal family. You have to learn it whether you like it or not!"
Lin Xiuyan refused to back down: "Martial arts can save lives and are extremely useful. If Second Sister doesn't want to learn, then I'll teach her every time I see her."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "..."
Princess Consort of Pingnan: "!!!!!!!"
Since she married into the Prince of Pingnan's mansion, no one has dared to challenge her like this!
Princess Consort of Pingnan angrily said, "Lin Xiuyan, this is the Pingnan Prince's residence, not the Lin residence. You have no right to act recklessly here!"
Lin Xiuyan chuckled lightly: "I know this is the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. I have memorized all the family rules of the manor."
"There is no rule in the Prince's Mansion that says a Crown Princess must learn the whole set of etiquette, nor does it say that she must learn martial arts."
After she finished speaking, she swung her fist and punched Ye Mingzhu hard in the stomach, causing Ye Mingzhu to curl up in pain.
Princess Pingnan understood Lin Xiuyan's implied meaning, and her face turned purple with anger.
Finally, Princess Pingnan gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't want to learn etiquette, then don't learn it!"
Lin Xiuyan pulled Ye Mingzhu up with some regret and said, "I was originally planning to teach my second sister martial arts properly, what a pity."
As soon as Ye Mingzhu got up, a maid came to help her.
She hid behind the Princess of Pingnan and said, "Mother, have someone beat Lin Xiuyan to death!"
Although Princess Pingnan was angry, she did not lose her temper.
She looked at Lin Xiuyan with a forced smile and said, "You've only just married into the Prince's mansion; there's plenty of time ahead of you."
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said, "What Your Highness says is true, just now."
"After all, I'm much younger than you. Even if we're comparing who can live longer, I have the advantage over you."
Princess Pingnan clenched her fist upon hearing this.
She realized that Lin Xiuyan had anticipated that she would make things difficult for her.
So he deliberately caused these things to challenge her and openly tell her that she was not someone to be bullied.
Judging from Lin Xiuyan's recent display of fighting prowess, the Princess Consort of Pingnan knew that the methods she had previously used to deal with the concubine's daughters in the Prince's mansion were ineffective against her.
However, Princess Pingnan felt that this was nothing, after all, human life is very fragile, and it is not difficult to kill a person.
She said calmly, "The Crown Princess is truly surprising. I have learned a lot today."
Lin Xiuyan looked at the composed and calm Princess Pingnan and clicked her tongue lightly.
She used this series of events to provoke Princess Pingnan, just to test Princess Pingnan's cunning and abilities.
Princess Pingnan appears kind on the surface, but she is actually very petty and cannot tolerate the slightest loss.
Her methods were basically ruthless and underhanded in the power struggles within the family.
Even though Lin Xiuyan had angered her so much, she was still able to remain calm and didn't do anything inappropriate.
This is enough to show that Princess Pingnan is a very shrewd person, and such people are generally quite terrifying.
The reason she was able to win several matches in a row this time was simply because Princess Pingnan was unfamiliar with her tactics and underestimated her opponent.
If she wasn't mistaken, the Princess Consort of Pingnan would soon make another move, and this time it wouldn't be a probing tactic like this one.
Lin Xiuyan smiled slightly: "Your Highness's generosity has benefited me greatly."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely take good care of you in the future."
After she finished speaking, she took out a bottle of medicine from her bosom and handed it to Princess Pingnan: "This medicine is very effective in treating wasp stings."
Princess Pingnan did not accept the medicine, and Lin Xiuyan did not mind. She simply placed the medicine on the table and then pulled Ye Qingwan away.
After following Lin Xiuyan out of Princess Pingnan's room, Ye Qingwan finally came to her senses.
What happened today was beyond her previous understanding, and she was both excited and thrilled.
She stared at Lin Xiuyan with wide eyes, making Lin Xiuyan feel uneasy: "What are you doing?"
Ye Qingwan said with a serious expression, "I originally thought that my method of dealing with the old demon... the princess's method was not bad."
"But compared to you, I feel I'm far too mild!"
