“Niang’er, have you realized?”
Liu Erniang blinked his eyes a few times. After his vision became clear, he looked at one by one the people who surrounded him with puzzled looks.
The prime minister and his wife breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, their youngest daughter regained consciousness as well after fainting for four hours
“My daughter, what really happened to you?” ask Big Lady Gao.
He was so shocked when the waiter told him that Liu Erniang had fainted in his yard and his hand was injured. The doctor examined him and treated him, but found nothing.
Liu Erniang stared blankly, then he shouted like a madman. Liu Erniang rebelled and looked at everyone with fear. His body trembled, just as it had happened to him when faced with Qingyi earlier.
“No! Don't hurt me! Don't ruin my face!” yang Liu Erniang. The prime minister and his wife looked at each other.
Not a single servant dared to tell the incident earlier this afternoon to their master and mistress. Qingyi's actions that taught Liu Erniang a lesson were the best lessons for such an arrogant girl.
The servants had been hurt for many years, and they felt a little better after the person who hurt them got an unexpected reply.
Big Lady Gao tried to calm her poor daughter down. He thought someone must have bullied him to this extent. Liu Erniang cried out like a madman, until both of his parents felt extremely worried. They told the healer to calm him down, and a few moments later Liu Erniang began to be controlled.
“Who would dare to do this to you?” big Madam Gao asked after Liu Erniang calmed down.
“The Great Lady, a few hours ago Princess Consort Changle came here and met Miss Erniang,” said Liu Erniang. He was also not clear about the details of the incident because at that time he was out buying something.
“Liu Qingyi? What else is he doing?”
Grand Madam Gao was instantly furious. The damned woman still made it difficult even though she had left the residence. His hatred for Qingyi grew bigger and bigger. The prime minister's wife looked at her husband who also looked angry, but his expression was held back.
“That damn kid is bothering my daughter! Are you gonna shut up?” ask the prime minister.
“You should get rid of it immediately! Niang’er's future could be jeopardized if the damn kid is still alive! What if you hire back a killer to eliminate him?” added Big Lady Gao.
“Shut! You think we can bother him at will?” the prime minister. Grand Madam Gao was shocked at the scuffles she received, then looked at her husband angrily.
“King Changle's power is slowly recovering. Today, he indicted the Superintendent of the Xizhou Academy and won the hearts of the ministers. The Emperor was angry that the Superintendent of the Xizhou Academy was appointed at my recommendation. You know what's worse? The head of Xizhou Academy also came and continuously insinuated me!”
The prime minister is under great pressure today. At the court, Baili Qingchen managed to report the abuse case of the power of the Xizhou Academy Supervisor and exposed him to the anger of Emperor Baili. The prime minister was also in trouble because the Head of Xizhou Academy was suddenly present in the court and kept insinuating him.
“Academy Head? You mean, Zhao Peng? Why would he insinuate you?” ask Big Lady Gao.
“Because Zhao Yinniang is the grandson of the Zhao Family. Zhao Peng knows what we have done to Zhao Yinniang all this time!”
Big Lady Gao was wide-eyed in disbelief. His knee was instantly limp until his servant swiftly propped it up.
This surprise is too big!
Grand Madam Gao did not expect that Zhao Yinniang who had been enslaved by him in this residence was the granddaughter of a very influential big family. He should not have let Zhao Yinniang go and got rid of him back then.
“Do not act rashly. Liu Qingyi was not a person who could be harassed at will, especially at the present situation!” the prime minister's. Big Lady Gao was getting angry. His emotions went up to the crown. He threw the things on the table on the floor.
“That damn kid! Why should he be born in this family? I should have killed him long ago!” shouted Big Lady Gao. The prime minister breathed. He's in a difficult situation.
“Luckily those assassins from Litao Pavilion kept their promise. They will not open their mouths until death, ” the prime minister said.
He was the mastermind of the ambush on the way to Xizhou. Upon learning that Emperor Baili sent Baili Qingchen to investigate the Xizhou Academy, the prime minister hired the assassins to injure him. He had no intention of killing Baili Qingchen.
However, after knowing Qingyi was coming with him, the intention of getting rid of him instantly appeared. The target of the assassination was Qingyi, but the damned girl was lucky to be able to survive even returning safely and bringing a lot of trouble for her.
The prime minister and his wife were completely unaware that someone was holding his mouth back from screaming in surprise outside the window. The man tried to hold back from making a sound over what he had just heard. With a careful step, the person then immediately left the courtyard.
...***...
Auntie Zhang didn't give up that easily. The next day, he came with five other ethical teachers. Auntie Zhang asked the Inner Palace Division to help her, then the five teachers left with her to the mansion of King Changle.
Consort Dowager Sun and Empress Dowager Ming agreed to Auntie Zhang's request, especially after they heard what Qingyi had done during her study hours.
Qingyi clucked in disbelief as the boring ethics teacher grew to six. One Auntie Zhang alone had already made her miserable, especially if added to the other five Aunties Zhang! Qingyi immediately locked the door of her room and closed the window tightly because she did not want to study anymore.
“Your Highness, if Your Majesty does not come out, I am forced to damage the door of Your Majesty's room,” Auntie Zhang said.
“Terden! I will never open the door even if you destroy my entire western residence!” reject Qingyi.
Auntie Zhang tried to be patient for a moment. Behind her, five teachers and a few male servants were already on standby to get Qingyi out of her room. Today, he will not be fooled again. Princess Consort Changle must be taught to be kind as a princess.
Baili Qingchen who happened to pass by with Xiao Junjie approached Auntie Zhang. After receiving the tribute, he asked, “What's wrong?”
“Your Highness, Her Highness the Princess is unwilling to come out. He locked the doors and windows tightly,” Auntie Zhang replied.
Xiao Junjie was grieving but his heart was happy. Finally he could avenge Qingyi. The weapon he borrowed from Consort Sun's Dowager and Empress Dowager Ming was indeed powerful. Xiao Junjie witnessed Qingyi's suffering in the study of women with a flowery heart.
“Your Majesty, should I break down the door?” ask Auntie Zhang. Baili Qingchen shook her head. “Let me just.”
Unexpectedly, Baili Qingchen kicked the door of Qingyi's room open. Auntie Zhang and the others were almost hanging over their master's attitude. Baili Qingchen entered Qingyi's room, but did not see the girl anywhere. His eyes looked at the open window.
“So soon the stray cat ran away!” baili Qingchen.
“Your Majesty, where are you going?” ask Cui Kong.
“Release! I don't want to be bothered by those shitty people!”
However, Cui Kong did not let go. He instead brought Qingyi before Baili Qingchen. Qingyi scowled, not believing the actions the bodyguard had just taken.
He repeatedly kicked Cui Kong's leg for daring to betray him. Cui Kong only smiled because Qingyi's kick meant nothing. It made Qingyi even more annoyed.
“Aunt Zhang, please start,” said Baili Qingchen.
“Baili Qingchen, you!”
“Your Highness Princess, let's start the lesson. Wasn't His Majesty looking forward to it yesterday?” said Auntie Zhang. If Qingyi was a tiger, she would bite these people and tear their flesh apart in annoyance.
Baili Qingchen nodded as a sign that Auntie Zhang was already allowed to begin her studies. Without saying anything, he immediately turned around and left the western courtyard followed by Cui Kong. Xiao Junjie who had been happy to see Qingyi's misery approaching him, then spoke a few words with him.
“How about this surprise I gave you? Fun, right?” ask Xiao Junjie. Qingyi wanted to punch him in the face, but Xiao Junjie immediately ran away. He walked backwards, while continuing to mock Qingyi.
Qingyi could no longer bear to see Xiao Junjie's disgusting face. He took off his shoes, then threw them into Xiao Junjie's stomach. The annoying guy who turned that back.
“Baili Qingchen! Cui Kong's! Junjie Xiao! I will definitely reply you!”
The number of ethics teachers who were too many made Qingyi a bit of a difficulty. They were all as fierce as Auntie Zhang. Qingyi held him back for a while while thinking of a way to escape.
Yinghao who had just appeared could only watch his master suffer. Qingyi was even more upset. He had Yinghao take out two small harmless grenades from the dimensional space.
As Auntie Zhang and her comrades were off guard, the grenade was thrown and exploded. Plumes of smoke rose and Auntie Zhang's face and her comrades cupped with soot. Qingyi used the opportunity to escape.
“Explosion from where is this?” ask Auntie Zhang.
“Head Zhang, Your Highness Princess is running away!” his companion exclaimed as he saw Qingyi running towards the gate.
“Pursue him!”
The chase action goes on. Auntie Zhang shouted that Qingyi should not run, then Qingyi smartly turned her words around. For a while, they did not stop. Qingyi's breathing was wheezing as it swirled in the residence. Yinghao encouraged her by continuing to speak.
“Your Majesty! Stop running!” shouted Auntie Zhang.
“Give up! I won't be defeated that easily!” exclaim Qingyi. Auntie Zhang and her accomplice continued to chase after her.
“What are they made of machine? Why not stop too?”
Qingyi almost vomited as she continued to run. His brain suddenly told him to go somewhere. Qingyi entered the eastern courtyard, where Baili Qingchen's residence was and entered her study. The man was shocked when his study room was breached by people. He was more surprised when Qingyi suddenly took refuge behind his body.
“What are you doing here?” ask Baili Qingchen.
“Hidden,” Qingyi replied.
“I know. I mean, why are you hiding here?”
“Those old aunties will not dare to set foot in your study.”
Baili Qingchen put down her writing brush and turned around. Qingyi crouched down behind her chair while breathing in. A sweat poured from the girl's forehead, making Baili Qingchen unable to wipe her.
He should have locked the door. Qingyi was not a person who could submit to others, let alone be forced to do something that was not to her liking. Ethical learning is not something suitable for a girl like her.
Baili Qingchen slowly began to understand his nature after observing and living in a single residence with him. He had intentionally left it to Auntie Zhang to test it out. In fact, Qingyi's patience was indeed thinner than a piece of paper. The girl will not stand being forced to learn ethics.
“You are satisfied to see me suffer at the hands of those old aunts?” ask Qingyi.
His breathing began to stabilize and his heartbeat began to return to normal. He sat down on the chair not far from Baili Qingchen's study table, then sipped a few glasses of water.
“Lumayan,” Baili Qingchen replied. Qingyi grieves.
“If it were not for your Prince Empress, those aunts would not have come here.”
“You yourself are looking for trouble with it.”
“I shouldn't have given her medicine back then,” Qingyi said.
“Without the herbs, he will live.”
Qingyi solemnly wanted to stuff Baili Qingchen's mouth with a roll of paper. The man's mouth besides being very sharp was also very acidic. Every day just know how to say words that are not pleasant to hear. Other than his abnormal behavior, Baili Qingchen was also very annoying.
How could a king have such a character?
“I'm lazy to argue with you,” Qingyi said.
Baili Qingchen chose to continue her work. Not long after, a servant came and told from outside, that there was a young man from the prime minister's family noisily in front of the gate and insisted on meeting King Changle and his empress.
"Let me meet King Changle and his Empress!"
