Chapter 265 I am the Empress in a Patriarchal Society (18)



Qianxi stayed in the academy for some time.

Many people have noticed her strengths. She has an excellent talent in mathematics and physics, and her literary attainments are amazing.

If this is the case, everyone will just treat her as a person like Lin Lin.

But Qianxi's performance in martial arts class is also very good, only slightly inferior to Shen Tingnan, who comes from a military family.

Qianxi is petite and lacks strength, but she is good at using clever strength and can often achieve great results with little effort. She is good at using tools and weapons, especially archery, and her horse riding skills are outstanding.

Lin Lin and Luo Shu have outstanding political views but mediocre skills, Shen Tingnan is an outstanding martial artist but weak in governance, and people who are both civil and military are rare after all. Qian Xi looks frail but has extraordinary abilities. In a short period of time, he has attracted the attention of many people. Everyone thinks that this young genius will definitely be a key figure in the future of the Great Zhou.

The Crown Prince of the Great Zhou did not study in the deep palace, but studied in the academy with the children of aristocratic families, in order to get familiar with the future ministers of the Great Zhou as soon as possible.

Qianxi has outstanding abilities but comes from an ordinary family. She was able to enter the academy only because of her relationship with the Yun family. Logically, she should get close to Jiang Rui, the future emperor of the Great Zhou, so that she can put her talents to good use.

But apart from bowing to Jiang Rui, Qianxi hardly spoke to Jiang Rui.

Qianxi always walked with Jiang Li, and Jiang Rui never took the initiative to summon Qianxi.

In the academy, everyone is respectful to Jiang Rui, but because of the difference in status, it is difficult for others to get close to Jiang Rui.

Qianxi gradually became a celebrity in the academy, and Jiang Li was inseparable from her. No one would look down on a capable person with a strong backer.

Qianxi often sends letters to her family, but her elder brother Yunzhi is still worried about his beloved sister being alone in the academy.

Yun Zhi also came to the academy to give lectures with Song Yi, the former top scholar who used to despise Qianxi for not being able to embroider and now an editor in the Hanlin Academy, and to visit Qianxi by the way.

Yun Zhi went to the academy and met Jiang Rui first.

"Prince, how are you these days?"

"Fine."

Yun Zhi was about to leave after greeting Jiang Rui, but he stopped him, "Minister Yun."

Yun Zhi was currently serving as the Minister of Rites at the Ministry of Rites. When he heard Jiang Rui calling him, he bowed his head and asked, "What are your instructions, Your Highness?"

"I once heard that your sister angrily rebuked the number one scholar, leaving him speechless. Is that true?"

Jiang Rui mentioned Qianxi without warning, and Yun Zhi's heart skipped a beat. "Why did His Highness suddenly mention my little sister?"

"I just want to know what your sister said to leave the newly crowned top scholar speechless."

Song Yi came over a little later to greet him. Jiang Rui smiled when he saw him. "Song Yi, you came just in time. I was just talking about you with Minister Yun."

Song Yi asked in awe, "Your Highness, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Seeing Song Yi's nervousness, Jiang Rui comforted him, "Don't be nervous. I'm just curious about what Miss Yun said to you in the past."

Song Yi's face turned embarrassed.

Jiang Rui seemed oblivious to Song Yi's grim expression and asked with a chuckle, "Song Yi, can you tell me what happened that day?"

The experience that day was like a nightmare, and Song Yi didn't want to think about it again, but Jiang Rui was the king and he was the subject, so when Jiang Rui asked, he had to answer.

"Your Highness, Miss Yun said that day that her hands were not meant for embroidery."

"What is that for?"

"Pen to write, sword to fight."
