Chapter 632: Beating Someone Up

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhao Kangning did not know how to swim and was instantly washed away by the water.

Wei Ting was saving someone in the water.

He had just grabbed the servant when his other hand caught the rope that Wei Liulang had thrown over.

Just as he was about to go ashore, Zhao Kangning floated over.

Zhao Kangning choked on water and felt terrible. It was not easy for her to see Wei Ting, and endless hope rose in her heart.

“Pick—me—up—I’

She shouted in her heart.

She was the Princess of Northern Yan. It was one thing to secretly kill the envoy of Northern Yan, but it was another thing to leave one in the lurch in public. As an official of the Imperial Court, Wei Ting could not do this. Otherwise, it would give Northern Yan an excuse to send troops.

However, Wei Ting no longer had a free hand to save her.

It was impossible for him to give up his servant’s life.

The servant was also human.

Helpless, Wei Ting could only kick her ashore.

Zhao Kangning fainted on the spot!

When her coachman and palace maid rushed over with a Herculean effort, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.

Who was this pig head?

After arriving at the palace, Wei Ting specially went to apologize to Emperor Jing Xuan.

“I’ve injured the Princess of Northern Yan. I’m guilty.”

His tone was sincere and his attitude was respectful. No one could find anything wrong with him.

However, his kick landed on her face. A fairy-like princess was kicked into a pig’s head—

Emperor Jing Xuan wanted to say, “How much do you despise her that you used your feet to save her?”

“Father, it’s my fault.” Xiao Zhonghua cupped his hands and said, “When I crossed the bridge this morning, I might have realized that the wooden bridge was already overwhelmed if I paid more attention.”

These words reminded Emperor Jing Xuan.

The reason why Zhao Kangning became like this was because there was a malfunction in the wooden bridge. Wei Ting was saving people, although the method was a little f*cked up.

However, this accident was not Xiao Zhonghua’s negligence. It was Xiao Duye’s.

Emperor Jing Xuan handed the safety of the palace to the Second Prince, Xiao Shunyang, and the Third Prince, Xiao Zhonghua. Xiao Duye was dissatisfied and ran to Emperor Jing Xuan to act pitifully, so Emperor Jing Xuan gave him the task of escorting him along the way.

He was in charge of this wooden bridge. He should have investigated the hidden dangers on the road three days ago.

“I heard that Jing Yi let go at that time. Otherwise, the Princess of Northern Yan wouldn’t have fallen into the river.”

He wanted to find a scapegoat for Xiao Duye and hold him accountable.

Wei Ting said without changing his expression, “Oh, Jing Yi didn’t do it on purpose. His arm was cramped… My Madam tested the road for Princess of

Northern Yan first. Who would have thought… Sigh.”

Thinking of that little fat girl, Jing Xuan was speechless.

In the evening, the group stayed in the courtyard of the palace.

Ghostfear and Wei Liulang were guards. They lived in the same room in the west courtyard.

Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao brought the three little ones into a room. Madam Li and Wei Xiyue shared a room in the east courtyard.

There were also a few maidservants and servants who stayed in the east courtyard.

Su Cheng also came to the palace. However, he was here as the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards to protect Emperor Jing Xuan. Therefore, he did not live with his daughter and son-in-law but with the Imperial Guards.

Su Ergou was going to school at the Imperial College, so Qin Canglan stayed in the capital to accompany him.

Only Su MO, Su Xuan, and Su Li came with the Marquis of Zhenbei.

“Eldest Cousin, Fourth Cousin.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the three of them and greeted them with a smile.

Su Li pointed at her nose and said, “Hey, why didn’t you greet me?”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Su Li.”

Su Li’s face darkened.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Xuan. “Fourth Cousin, don’t you have class?

Su Xuan was also a student of the Directorate.

Ever since she had a simple conversation with Su Xuan last time, Su Xiaoxiao had begun to notice her fourth cousin.

He had the lowest presence in the Su family, but he was definitely not as simple as he looked.

As a quiet and handsome man, Su Xuan rarely spoke.

Su Xuan smiled back.

Su Li snorted. “My fourth brother is out for a walk since the Fall Quarter

Examinations is taking place next month!”

Among the Su brothers, only Su Xuan took the literary examination seriously. The other four… Su Li was still young and it was difficult to define. Su MO, Su Qi, and Su Yu all took martial arts examinations.

The martial examination was also an imperial examination, but it was not as important as the literary examination.

Su Li pulled Su Xuan to play with the three tiger heads.

Su MO and Su Xiaoxiao sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.

Su MO said, “The Western Jin brought many experts to the Great Zhou this time, but as long as they don’t become enemies with us, there’s no need to be too vigilant. The main point to note is Northern Yan. Other than Helian Ye, there are a few unfathomable experts among them, including that Gu Master.”

He had gone to the Duke’s Protector’s Estate this morning and learned about Helian Ye’s “background” from Qin Canglan, as well as the failure of Sikong Yun to poison Wei Ting.

Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “The Western Jin has a poison master and the Northern Yan has a Gu Master. How interesting.”

Su MO placed a jar of peeled walnuts in front of her and poured her a cup of tea. “Poison masters and Gu Masters come from the same sect, but later on, they were divided into different factions. The poison masters went to Western Jin, and the Gu Masters stayed in Northern Yan.”

Su Xiaoxiao reached for the walnut jar. “In that case, the poison master was separated from Northern Yan. Is the Gu Master stronger than the poison master?”

Su MO thought for a moment and said, “This also depends on one’s strength. A junior Gu Master can’t defeat an experienced poison master. However, overall, Gu Masters are harder to deal with than poison masters and are more dangerous.”

This was especially true of the Gu Master who could appear in the Northern

Yan royal family. He was definitely not a simple Gu Master, but a real expert. In a courtyard of the envoy of Northern Yan, Zhao Kangning finally woke up.

Her entire body was in pain as if she had been beaten up.

The palace maid came to apply medicine for her, but she chased her out.

Her biological brother came to see her, but she rejected him.

Knock, knock, knock.

There was another knock on the door.

Zhao Kangning turned around and covered his ears. “I told you, I won’t see anyone!”

“Princess, it’s me.”

Hearing a familiar voice, Zhao Kangning let go and sat up.

The young man entered with a bowl of medicine. “Princess, drink this. Your injuries will recover tomorrow.”

Zhao Kangning did not want to drink it, but when she thought of her swollen face, she held back her displeasure and drank the bowl of bitter medicine.

Thinking of today’s humiliation, a fierce glint flashed across Zhao Kangning’s eyes. “I want his life!”

“General Wei has indeed gone overboard today…”

“I’m not talking about Wei Ting.”

“Oh?” The man was surprised.

Wei Ting was in the wrong, but she could not bear to kill him.

Zhao Kangning said coldly, “You didn’t see him protecting that girl. I’m clearly the noble princess! He dared to embarrass me in public and I almost lost my life. He deserves to be taught a lesson!”

Zhao Kangning was not an impulsive person, but ever since she came to the capital of the Great Zhou, nothing had gone smoothly. She had already been forced to the end of her patience.

She looked at the man indifferently. “However, Young Marquis Jing is also a rare expert. Are you confident?”

The man’s thin lips moved slightly. “I’ve never failed.” A cool breeze blew.

Jing Yi sat by the pond as he made a bow for Su Xiaoxiao.

They were about to hunt. He wanted to make a useful bow and arrow for her. The young man looked focused, as if he was doing the most important thing in

his life..
