The short Mu Xiutian ended, and it was once again the day she and Xu Minglan entered the palace to accompany the Eldest Princess.
Xu Mingwei nodded her head to show that she understood, and for a while the few girls got busy themselves, and when they were fully dressed, the kitchen had already sent her breakfast. Knowing that she was going to enter the palace and did not enter the water, they only sent her a few plates of fragrant pastries, even if she did not have time to eat, she would be able to wrap them up in her sleeves and fill her stomach when she was hungry.
Wan Rong could not help but sigh, "The kitchen is so meticulous."
Xu Mingwei only laughed, and did not say anything.
Not long after, someone came from the Lady Ji to urge them. Wan Rong and the others also knew that they were not allowed to follow them into the palace this time. The moment they saw Peaches who was waiting for Xu Mingwei at the entrance of the courtyard, Wan Ting couldn't help but feel unwell, and rolled her eyes big. Wan Rou and Wan Yi scanned her body from head to toe, waiting to find out what was wrong with her.
She took it carefully and nodded, "Don't worry, big sister."
Xu Mingwei and Xu Minglan drove all the way into the palace, and when they arrived at the Fanghua Hall, they did not arrive too early. The two Zuo sisters and Fu Ninghui had already arrived, and were huddled together talking about something. Xu Minglan pressed a cold snort down her throat, but when she saw that Fu Ninghui was also there, she still followed him.
"Sister Ning Hui, Little Sister You Lan, what are you doing?" Xu Mingwei asked, then focused on the colorful little paper sign in their hands. It did not look like any of the Six Blessings, so she asked in confusion.
Fu Ninghui laughed, "These are the new cards that came from the south, they are called 'Swift Escape', a total of twenty different colored pairs, split up and grab, each of them would draw their cards from the hands of the others, gathering into a pair, then taking out their cards, the slowest way to escape is to lose."
Xu Mingwei thought that this was just a game of stealing chickens in a game of poker cards. She thought that it was a game made by someone from another world, looking carefully, the colors were all from the fairy tales of the Tianqi, and there was only one for each of them, which didn't seem to be the case.
"This kind of fighting style is really simple, it's all based on luck." Xu Minglan said.
The two Zuo sisters were a little afraid of her, so they just nodded and didn't dare to say anything.
While they were chatting, Yang Jinxi and Zhou Ranxing who were in the front and back also arrived, and the crowd quickly started to discuss their escape plans. After a while, Senior Servant Liu brought some people over to call for them, and asked them to gather at the academy area.
When everyone heard that their teacher was already waiting at the academy, they panicked and quickly carried their bags and ran. They felt like they were late for school, afraid of being caught by their teacher. Xu Mingwei laughed in her heart and followed the others as they ran.
The mama behind him couldn't help but laugh. How was this the appearance of a noble girl? There wasn't even the slightest bit of discipline. Even the Senior Servant Liu could not help but laugh.
Only when they arrived in front of the academy did everyone stand still. They calmed their breathing, looked at each other's clothes and hair, and then slowly entered.
"Greetings to Sir from Student Xu Mingwei."
At the same time, the Master Fang returned the gesture and waved for everyone to find a seat.
Eldest Princess who was seated at the very front took the opportunity to turn around and make a face at Xu Mingwei. If not for Xu Mingwei being so nervous, he would have been teased by her.
This time, entering the palace was indeed as Xu Mingwei expected. The two masters specially set up a table for the two Zuo sisters, not knowing how to read much, and only learned the characters first.
Today, Master Fang was talking about the little story in . Everyone read the book first, and asked some questions to see how everyone understood the story in the book. In the end, Master Fang talked about the story from ancient times.
When Master Fang's class ended, he missed his new buddies very much and immediately pulled Xu Mingwei, Fu Ninghui and the others to ask them what they had done at home.
When Xu Minglan told them about them being guests in the Fu Clan, it made Eldest Princess extremely envious.
"You all are still free. We can still get together outside to have fun. I'm bored to death staying in the palace all day." The Eldest Princess sighed.
Fu Ninghui laughed, "We are all envious of the Eldest Princess, the Imperial Palace is so big, even if we stroll around every day, we won't find it annoying."
Xu Mingwei agreed, causing the Eldest Princess to become even more annoyed, she rolled her eyes and scolded, "How can the palace be any more fun than outside?"
Yang Jinxi also noticed that the head of the Eldest Princess was off. Just as she was about to change the topic, she heard Zhou Ranxing laugh, "Next Mu Rest Day, we agreed to return to elder sister Yang's house to play. Eldest Princess, do you want to come as well?"
Eldest Princess's eyes lit up, and suddenly became gloomy, "Sigh, Queen Mother will definitely not allow it."
Zuo Youzhu thought, being princesses was not a good thing, even if one wanted to go out, they would not be able to.
Fu Ninghui looked at Zhou Ranxing with a blaming look, she truly knew when to hold back and when to hold back. She knew that she couldn't leave the palace, why did she even bother with him?
Zhou Ranxing ignored her as she surrounded Eldest Princess and laughed. Fortunately, Master Liang also came in. With a clear cough, everyone immediately scattered like birds and sat in their respective seats.
"I heard from Master Fang that all of you have learnt quite well today. I wonder if you all have made any progress with your brushes. Take out the brush and paper. Master Liang stroked his goatee and laughed.
Everyone could not help but wail in their hearts. This Mu Xiu's previous Master Liang did raise his opinion on their calligraphy, but who would still be working hard at home? He was afraid that the words he would write later would still be ugly, so he was waiting to be criticized!
As expected, after an hour, the Master Liang had to collect all the papers from the students and write them a few times before finally being willing to hand them over.
"It seems like none of you have heard a word I've said before. Make a good copy of the opening and hand it over to me. When have you changed it? When will you be able to attend class again?" After Master Liang said this, he shook his sleeves and left. The previous day's official class had already angered Master into fleeing.
Everyone did not dare laugh out loud, they sat down obediently in the Academy, and wrote for more than an hour before they managed to find one that they were slightly satisfied with. They got Fu Ninghui to hand it over to the Senior Servant Liu, and had her hand it over to the Master Liang.
It was supposed to be lunch time, the group of people did not dare to leave without waiting for Master Liang's permission. If not for the bag of snacks that Xu Mingwei had hidden in her sleeve, and took out to share with the others, Xu Minglan would have passed out from hunger.
Just as everyone was anxiously waiting for Master Liang's reply, the two old teachers were sitting upright in the tea room that was separated by a wall, with their eyes closed as they sipped their tea.
"It's still Brother Liang's beautiful hand. After this round, these female students will naturally be more obedient." Master Fang raised his cup to toast him.
Master Liang looked at him in disdain, drank his tea properly and gave him a toast.
"If it's not for the fact that Brother Fang is unwilling to be this evil person, I can only put up a front to show my might." "In the future, when they raise their points and press it again, it will not be easy to deal with."
Master Liang was clearly saying that Master Fang was used to being nice, and would always blame it on him when he returned.
The Master Fang did not refute him and laughed. He then raised the teacup in his hand and saluted him, "There are many capable people Brother Liang."
Master Liang cursed in his heart. Seeing that the girls next door had enough time, he straightened his robes and cupped his hands towards Master Fang, "It's time to go over and take a look."
Master Fang spread out his hands and gestured towards the door, but he smiled and did not speak.
As they were leisurely sipping tea and chatting, Eldest Princess and the others in the room next door were getting more and more anxious. Senior Servant Liu had already been gone for a long time and there was still no reply, could it be that Master Liang was angry this time, and could not calm down?
Just as they were talking uneasily, they saw Master Liang walking in with a stern face.
Master Liang coughed twice and asked, "Did you realize your mistake?"
How could they dare to say they didn't know? They all answered in unison.
Master Liang wanted to laugh, but he held it in and said indifferently, "That's for the best, but for those who are lazy next time, no matter who it is, they will all be heavily punished. Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
It was only then that Master Liang released the school with satisfaction. Everyone who was already starving hurriedly put away their paper, pen and ink, and went back to their respective rooms to get food. From now on, even the Eldest Princess would not dare to neglect the lessons in the Master Liang. In comparison, Master Fang did not do his homework well. This annoyed Master Fang so much that he would often sigh to Master Liang.
At this time, it was the Master Liang's turn to twist the goatee happily, but he simply smiled and did not speak any further.
The two masters, Fang Liang and Yue Shan, had done their best in their lessons. Eldest Princess was not a willful and difficult person to attend to, so Xu Mingwei's days in the palace were not difficult to bear. In the blink of an eye, it was time for Mu Xiu and the others to leave the palace and return home. However, Yang Jinxi caught a cold wind and was afraid that she would be sick in Eldest Princess.
Seeing that the owner of the house was not well, the reunion that was previously agreed upon would definitely not be held. Xu Minglan did not discuss with Xu Mingwei and the others, instead, she suggested to Fu Ninghui and the others that they should take the order of the Xu family, and wait for Mu Xiyue, when everyone would come to her house to play.
Fu Ninghui looked at Xu Mingwei's expression and asked, "Your family's masters have not returned, is this appropriate?"
He had already said those words, how could he ruin the reputation of his own family? Xu Mingwei could only nod her head, and said, "I will go back and tell Second Aunt everything."
