"Every woman should first learn to establish herself. The way to establish herself is to be pure and chaste. Purity means cleanliness, and chastity means honor. When walking, do not look back, and when speaking, do not raise your lips..."
A cold voice sounded, and Jiang Ranli felt even more stupid, so he looked up at the person who spoke.
There, Yinzhen stood with one hand behind his back, his eyebrows slightly furrowed on his exceptionally handsome face, revealing a stern air.
"Fourth Master, please stop talking, I know I was wrong."
Jiang Ranli spoke helplessly. She had been trying hard to forget what had just happened, but Yinzhen was still reminding her.
Glancing at Jiang Ranli, whose eyes were filled with regret, Yinzhen frowned deeply. It was not that he had to remind Jiang Ranli again of what had just happened, but that he did not want such a thing to happen again in the future.
"It's okay if you don't let me tell you. After you go back today, copy the Analects of Women ten times. I will review it in three days."
Sighing, Yinzhen did not compromise. He wanted her to remember today's mistake so as to avoid such a situation from happening again in the future.
When Jiang Ranli heard that Yinzhen asked her to copy books, she was instantly overwhelmed. Her calligraphy was so bad that she didn't want to write. Moreover, Yinzhen asked her to copy "Female Training" every day. She was worried every day about how to finish it after returning to the capital. As a result, she couldn't think of a way to deal with Yinzhen, but had to copy other things.
"Can I not write it?" Jiang Ranli asked.
Yinzhen didn't say anything, but looked at her quietly with his cold eyes.
Seeing this, Jiang Ranli lowered her head. She knew that she would not be able to reach an agreement with Yinzhen, but she still wanted to try again, just in case she succeeded.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ranli looked up again, "Fourth Master, I am Ninth Master's maid."
What I mean is, I am the Ninth Master's maid, and you are the Fourth Master, so you have no right to punish me!
Yinzhen's eyes flashed with coldness when he heard the words, which startled Jiang Ranli. The courage to refute that he had accumulated with great difficulty disappeared in an instant. He glanced away in shame, not daring to look at him.
"You mean, I'm not qualified?"
Yinzhen opened his thin lips slightly, and the words he said made Jiang Ranli's heart tremble three times.
This person is the future Emperor Yongzheng. Jiang Ranli, no matter what you argue with him, you don’t have to say anything. He can kill you instantly with just one look.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ranli pursed her lips. She remembered that she had to keep a distance from Yinzhen, so in order not to be too involved with him, she agreed.
"Fourth Master must have heard it wrong. I didn't say anything."
After saying that, Jiang Ranli lowered her head and continued to clean the fish in her hands, no longer looking at Yinzhen.
Seeing her like this, Thirteenth Prince's handsome face turned red. He had known Jiang Ranli for so long, but this was the first time he saw her so pitiful.
"What are you laughing at? Hurry up and take out the fish."
Noticing the Thirteenth Prince's uncontrollable laughter, Jiang Ranli rolled her eyes. Not only did he not help, but he was also laughing at her. What a heartless person!
The Fourteenth Prince kept looking in the direction of Jiang Ranli. He couldn't hear what Yinzhen and Jiang Ranli said, but from Jiang Ranli's reaction, he knew that she must have been punished.
He didn't like his fourth brother who had a stern face all day long. He knew how his fourth brother felt about Jiang Ranli, but now was not the time for him to be angry or jealous. Jiang Ranli didn't take the relationship between men and women seriously, and she needed a punishment to make her take it seriously.
Wu Yanqing's gaze moved between Yinzhen and the Fourteenth Prince, and then looked away, trying to calm the surging emotions in his heart.
