Chen Siyuan originally thought she would see someone being beaten, but she didn't see that. Instead, she saw Chunping being beaten back by the Fifth Princess.
Later, she kept an eye on the Fifth Princess's actions.
It seemed that the Fifth Princess was only kicking, and her kicking movements were very fast and graceful, quite different from the martial arts she had seen before.
Until the Fifth Princess and Chunping stood still.
Chunping couldn't believe that she had lost to someone who had no martial arts skills.
"Fifth Princess Consort, what's going on?"
The Fifth Princess gracefully lowered her sleeves, saying, "This is Taekwondo."
"Taekwondo?" Chen Siyuan had never heard of it before. She looked at Chunping next to her, who was also confused.
She had never heard of this skill before.
"Yes, I am a black belt in Taekwondo."
"A black belt in Taekwondo?" What's that?
Chen Siyuan's face was full of questions.
The Fifth Princess was so happy that she did some more exercise and felt refreshed. When she saw Chen Siyuan's expression, she forgot that this was ancient times and that they had never encountered such a thing before.
Immediately, he pulled Chen Siyuan to sit next to him and started talking about Taekwondo.
He only gave a general overview, but Chen Siyuan caught the key point: this didn't require any martial arts foundation, and there weren't any overly demanding conditions. As long as you studied diligently, it wasn't too late to learn now.
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyuan's eyes lit up.
At this point, disregarding his own status, he insisted on becoming the Fifth Princess's disciple.
The Fifth Princess was speechless. Later, seeing Chen Siyuan's eager eyes and remembering what she had heard, she could only agree. However, the Fifth Princess made Chen Siyuan promise that if she wanted to practice, she could, but she could not bully the weak.
Chen Siyuan readily agreed to learn Taekwondo. She wasn't one to bully others; she would only retaliate if someone bullied her. She felt no guilt about this request.
Because of this, Chen Siyuan has one more thing to do every day.
She was already very busy, but now she's even busier.
The Fifth Princess was not a good teacher either; she just threw her a book and told her to practice according to the instructions in it.
Chen Siyuan is now calm and composed, without any impulsiveness. She can calm down and practice ordinary movements every day, following the Fifth Princess's instructions.
After a few days, Chen Siyuan hadn't become any expert, and she felt much more relaxed.
Because of practicing Taekwondo, she is busier and more tired, but she doesn't feel as exhausted as before.
Gradually, Chen Siyuan began to see this as an opportunity to exercise.
Ten days later.
The Fifth Princess Consort visited again, examined Chen Siyuan, and was very satisfied with her hard work. She immediately gave her another book.
Chen Siyuan immediately flipped through a few pages, very excited.
She was very excited that she was finally going to start practicing.
The Fifth Princess explained the basic principles, and Chen Siyuan quickly grasped them.
She saw the Fifth Princess off, and didn't spend the whole day practicing Taekwondo.
Chen Siyuan practiced until evening when Wen Kai suddenly came to find her, at which point she stopped.
"Cousin, who were you just now?"
Wen Kai knew that business on Nanguan Street was good, but he hadn't made much progress recently. Since he had learned from Chen Siyuan before and found it very helpful, he came here, only to find such a strange scene.
Chen Siyuan didn't hide it and said directly, "I'm practicing Taekwondo."
"Taekwondo?" Wen Kai had seen many martial arts styles, but he had never heard of Taekwondo before.
"Yes." Chen Siyuan was satisfied. Seeing her older cousin, who looked like a country bumpkin, she suddenly felt that she wasn't so ignorant after all.
"I'll show you a few moves."
As Chen Siyuan spoke, she avoided the basic skills from the beginning and performed the movements she had just practiced that day.
After finishing, she looked at her older cousin and asked, "Cousin, what do you think?"
Wen Kai looked at Chen Siyuan and thought about the strange movements he had just seen. He couldn't deny that these movements were perfect for his cousin, who had no martial arts background, to exercise.
"Practice more, it will benefit you." That day, while we were drinking, my cousin was taken away by Qiao Yuchen. I saw her a few times afterward and she was fine. I had witnessed the whole scene that day.
“I think so too, cousin. You don’t know, even Chunping was no match for the Fifth Princess that day.”
"The Fifth Princess Consort?" Wen Kai frowned.
If I remember correctly, the Fifth Prince supported the Fourth Prince back then. Now that the Fourth Prince is dead, the Fifth Prince has also been implicated. The Fifth Prince's mansion is not peaceful now. I feel that this matter is strange.
She wondered to herself how Qiao Yuchen had handled things. Had the Fifth Princess gotten close to Chen Siyuan without her noticing?
"Wow, she's amazing. She said that someone like me with no martial arts background can also reach a black belt?"
Wen Kai became more and more confused as he listened. He had no good feelings towards the Fifth Princess Consort and decided to investigate her thoroughly.
"I've come here today because I have something I want to ask you."
Seeing Wen Kai's expression change, Chen Siyuan quickly suppressed her own thoughts and invited Wen Kai to come inside and sit down.
Chunping quickly brought over tea and then stepped outside.
"Big brother, what's the matter? Tell me?" Wen Kai has been traveling around the martial arts world for many years. Could it be that he has discovered something?
Perhaps because she heard that Qiao Yuchen was going to suppress bandits, she paid some attention to this matter.
"I want to import a batch of foreign porcelain. Do you have any good ideas?"
"Porcelain?" Chen Siyuan thought that Wu Kingdom's porcelain was the most famous. Could it be that her older cousin was going to Wu Kingdom?
She also knew that many of the porcelain pieces in the palace came from the Wu Kingdom, but these were mostly tribute items. This area would bring in substantial profits, but it also carried great risks.
Chen Siyuan thought for a moment, then looked at Wen Kai, "How does Cousin plan to run the business?"
The business model, depending on the different customers, should not have a significant impact if it does not conflict with the offerings. However, the affairs of several countries, if handled well, can bring substantial profits, while if handled poorly, could very well lead to a catastrophic disaster.
"In large quantities." Wen Kai knew his idea was quite bold, but he had to go to Wu Kingdom for business, and doing business there would be more convenient.
“That’s easy. We can buy them from small businesses in Wu and then set up stalls on the ground.”
"Huh?" Not even a single storefront?
This doesn't align with the Wen family's stance.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Siyuan added to her cousin, "Selling goods at a street stall means they are cheap, and many people are willing to buy them. Also, street stalls are mobile, which is relatively safer."
Are you worried?
"Everything seems fine now, but if something were to happen, things wouldn't be good."
This was exactly what Wen Kai was worried about, and hearing his cousin's words, he felt reassured.
"Is my eldest cousin planning to make a trip to the Kingdom of Wu in person?"
"I have that plan."
"I don't know much about the Wu Kingdom, but I've heard that there's a leader in the Wu Kingdom called Fifth Master. This man is unpredictable, but he has one hobby: he loves to spar with others. If you're going, cousin, you should pay a visit to Fifth Master first. When you spar, cousin, you should go easy on him and not let him lose too badly."
