The princess is killing like crazy again

The month is almost over, and Xiao Yurong's birthday is also approaching. I guess the date is about the same.

Xiao Yurong was sitting at the table, eating some wine and calculating the time. "Father's anger has almost subsided. I don't need to cry or shout. I can just ask someone to send the copied book and embroidery to Father."

"Your birthday is coming soon, and it's time for His Majesty to lift your house arrest." Liu Pinjue said, "Tell the eunuchs in front of the emperor to ask you about your birthday this year and whether he wants you to have an extra gift prepared for you."

"I have already arranged it." Xiao Yurong said, "My birthday is coming soon, and the fiefdom of King Wen is in turmoil. Father will definitely lift the ban in advance and ask me to go back."

"My efforts paid off. You've become much smarter." Liu Pinjue was never stingy with praise.

Xiao Yurong naturally replied modestly: "No way! It's because you taught me well."

Liu Pinjue put down the book in his hand and said, "If you can understand and comprehend what I teach you, then it will become your own."

Xiao Yurong paused, then suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Teach me, sir. Aren't you afraid that I will use all these methods on you in the future?"

Liu Pinjue laughed instead, as if he had heard something funny.

"Since I dare to teach you, I have never been afraid of the consequences." He said, "On the contrary, I am looking forward to it."

"Looking forward to it?" Xiao Yurong narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, I am looking forward to it." Liu Pinjue nodded, "I am looking forward to what you can grow into. I hope that one day you and I will really face off against each other, and you will be able to hold out for a few rounds."

Xiao Yurong looked at Liu Pinjue expressionlessly, "So, sir, you look down on me? Aren't you afraid that I will be the one who can hurt or kill you?"

"Hahahahahahaha!" Liu Pinjue laughed even more happily.

Xiao Yurong still stared at him expressionlessly.

Liu Pinjue suddenly stopped laughing and held Xiao Yurong's wrist, "Show it to me."

There was a strange light in his eyes, "Show me, how far you can grow, can you shake me? Can you hurt me? Or kill me?"

"Do you really think so?" Xiao Yurong asked coldly.

"I look forward to that day, my dear. Don't let me look down on you." Liu Pinjue said with a smile.

Xiao Yurong stared at Liu Pinjue's eyes, those eyes that were as deep as black jade.

She suddenly laughed, "Okay, sir, I am very grateful for your guidance today."

"But please forgive me for not taking our friendship into consideration when we face each other tomorrow." She suddenly stopped smiling and said grimly.

"Okay, you must not show mercy." The smile in Liu Pinjue's eyes became more genuine, "Because when that time comes, I won't be soft-hearted either."

When Xiao Yurong left the Taifu Mansion, Liu Pinjue stood at the door and personally saw him off.

"Sir, you look like you know that I'm out of house arrest, but if you don't know, you're sending me away thousands of miles away." Xiao Yurong teased.

The carriage was already waiting for Xiao Yurong in front of the mansion, but Liu Pinjue was still taking his time.

"It's pretty much the same." Liu Pinjue said, "Now, you can be considered a master."

"A master's apprentice?" Xiao Yurong was stunned for a moment, then said dissatisfiedly, "In the past, my fellow apprentices all had a master's apprentice gift, but why is there nothing here for me?"

Liu Pinjue was calm and composed, "Because you are a master in calculation."

Xiao Yurong asked: "Does it count?"

"You haven't graduated yet, barely. You don't have to come to class every day in the future." Liu Pinjue said, "When you officially graduate, I will give you a big gift."

"Then I'll be waiting for your gift, sir." Xiao Yurong snorted lightly, turned around and was helped by Cuicui to get into the carriage.

The carriage's gold-inlaid and gem-studded windows were covered by a curtain of crepe, which looked thin but gave people a sense of thickness.

Through the hazy crepe with fine pleats, Liu Pinjue caught a glimpse of Xiao Yuxie waiting in the car.

Xiao Yuxie's cold and resolute brows softened a little when he saw Xiao Yurong. He raised his hand and helped Xiao Yurong get into the car.

Liu Pinjue watched the carriage go away, thoughtful.

His staff stood on his left and right and said, "Princess Zhaoyang was married to a noble lady from a famous family. She was taught civil and military tactics since she was young, so she is arrogant. If the master teaches her like this, there will be endless troubles in the future."

Another staff member also said: "Princess Zhaoyang will become a major threat to the Liu family in the future!"

"Since she is my student, I naturally have to be responsible to the end." Liu Pinjue raised his hand to stop their arguing.

"Now we are facing internal and external troubles. She seems to be enjoying a flourishing life, but in fact, Chu Le is in a precarious situation." Liu Pinjue said calmly, "If she can really stand out in this situation, it will not be in vain that we are a master and disciple."

The staff member was a little hesitant when he heard this, "My Lord, are you planning to recruit the princess as your subordinate? This is just raising a tiger to cause trouble."

"She is a daughter of the Xiao family. If the whole family is destroyed, how can she survive? Her honor is due to the Xiao family, so she naturally needs to protect the Xiao Dynasty." Liu Pinjue said, "If the Xiao family is killed, how will she deal with it as a princess?"

They have different positions and interests, so how can one of them submit to the other?

The aides looked increasingly strange. If that was the case, why did the master provide such careful guidance?

After thinking for a while, he said, "Master, staying in Yujing was a temporary solution. Now that everything is ready in Yunzhou, when will we set off and return to the master's house?"

"Staying in Yujing is not a temporary solution, but something I have carefully considered." Liu Pinjue turned and walked into the mansion. "Now that Emperor Xiao has been ill for a long time, the time for his great cause to be accomplished is coming soon."

The staff hurriedly followed his steps, "Master, you have foresight and foresight. We are far behind, and we are ashamed of ourselves."

Liu Pinjue closed his eyelashes heavily, and after a moment, he opened them again, "Write a letter to Yunzhou, asking them to calm down and stay calm."

"My lord, Gongsun Qian requests to see you." The subordinate took advantage of the opportunity and stepped forward to report.

"Gongsun Qian?" Liu Pinjue was a little surprised. "What is he doing here?"

Xiao Yurong has been released from confinement and has returned to the mansion. It will probably not be long before she meets this new guest from the princess's mansion. What is Gongsun Qin doing in the Grand Tutor's mansion now?

"Call him in." Liu Pinjue waved his hand.

Gongsun Qin quickly came in front of Liu Pinjue. He seemed to have just crawled out of the tavern and smelled of alcohol.

He had taken two steps forward and had not yet gotten close to Liu Pinjue when he was stopped by the guards on both sides of Liu Pinjue.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I forgot that the Grand Tutor doesn't like to get close to others." Gongsun Qian didn't feel offended at all and was not serious.

Liu Pinjue ignored his awkward posture when standing or sitting, and got straight to the point: "No one comes to visit you for no reason. What are you doing here?"

"Oh my, Master, you've hit the nail on the head, haven't you?" Gongsun Qian slapped his thigh. "It's not a big deal. I just owed some money for wine and offended the Imperial Censor. He's thinking of sending me to jail now."

He sighed again as he spoke: "The Imperial Censor is my uncle's political enemy. Now my uncle has been exiled to the northwest, but he still won't let me go. I'm so scared."

He was sobbing there, holding a handkerchief, and Liu Pinjue glanced at him indifferently.

Everyone knows that this guy went to the Censor's house for a banquet not long ago, came uninvited, and wrote several articles satirizing the Censor.

Gongsun Qian's current situation, being hated by the Grand Censor, can be said to be entirely his own fault. He was always jumping around and provoking others, and it was not at all unfair to him.

"Why are you saying these things to me? You should go find Qingqing. She is your real master now." Liu Pinjue picked up the teacup calmly.

The jade-like tea leaves in the cup sway gently, and the fragrance of tea fills the air.

Gongsun Qian said with a smile: "Since I have surrendered to the princess, I know that with the princess's character, if she knew that I had caused so much trouble to surrender, she would definitely doubt my loyalty and throw me out."

Liu Pinjue took a sip of tea and said, "Then why did you come to see me?"

"Of course I know that among all the Taifu's students and disciples, Princess Zhaoyang is the one he loves the most. So I came to ask for help from the Taifu." Gongsun Qin smiled.

"Heh." Liu Pinjue smiled, "How do you know I will help you and how can I help you?"

Gongsun Qian waved his hands, as if to say, "Don't be so modest. The Liu family has three dukes in four generations, and their students and former officials are all over the court and the country. It's not easy for the Grand Tutor to save me from the hands of the Imperial Censor, right?"

He pretended to be worried again, "The Imperial Censor has always been at odds with our Princess Zhaoyang, and he is very dissatisfied with her entering the court as an official. I am afraid that when the time comes, I will implicate the princess."

Liu Pinjue raised his eyes dimly, "You want to use Qingqing to threaten me, so that I can get rid of your troubles?"

"Oh my god, Master, what are you talking about? It's a sin, oh, it's a sin. I wouldn't dare to plot against you like this even if I had the courage of a bear or a leopard!" Gongsun Qin spoke exaggeratedly, but he still had a playful smile on his face.

Liu Pinjue sneered and put down his teacup slowly, "As long as you are loyal to Qingqing, I will take care of your funeral for you."

Gongsun Qian smiled knowingly and bowed, "Then I'll have to trouble you for your help, Master. If you need my help in the future, just let me know."

"I also hope that my group will not condone evil." Liu Pinjue said meaningfully.

"The money that young man owes for the wine..." Gongsun Qin rubbed his hands and hinted to Liu Pinjue.

"As for your wine money, go ask your new master for it." Liu Pinjue smiled and ruthlessly had Gongsun Qin thrown out.

Gongsun Qian was dragged outside by two guards, one on each side. He looked in disbelief at Liu Pinjue, who was sitting calmly on the high seat.

"Hey, hey, hey! Throw it out to me right away?" Gongsun Qin shouted all the way.

No one paid any attention to him and just threw him out the door and closed it.

"Tsk, how stingy, what a miser." Gongsun Qin dusted himself off and walked back with a sigh, "If you ask Princess Xiang, you won't have a good life in the future."

As soon as Gongsun Qian reached the gate of the princess's mansion, he was picked up by two people and dragged inside. "Hey hey hey! What are you doing? Put him down!"

"Mr. Gongsun, please come with us quickly. The princess wants to see you! Where did you go just now? We looked for you everywhere but couldn't find you!" The two guards turned a deaf ear and dragged the man straight in front of Xiao Yurong.

When they brought the man in front of Xiao Yurong, they both let go and stood aside.

Gongsun Qian fell hard, holding his waist while shouting "Ouch!" "Princess, this is the first time we've met. Is it really okay to be so handsy?"

"Where did you go just now? Who did you meet?" Xiao Yurong had a blank expression on his face.

"Look at what you said, who can I see?" Gongsun Qian pretended to be stupid.

"Stop pretending to be ignorant." Xiao Yurong sneered, "Tell me, what did you say to Liu Pinjue when you went to the Grand Tutor's Mansion just now?"

Gongsun Qian wanted to struggle again, but Xiao Yurong had already issued an ultimatum.

"If you don't tell me, pack your bags and get out of here." She began to get impatient and said coldly, "If you dare to tell a lie, I'll have someone pull out your tongue."

Yu Shu was behind her and put his hand on the hilt of the sword in response.

Gongsun Qian could only tell the truth: "I asked the Grand Tutor for help because I owed money for wine and offended the Imperial Censor. If I ask you for help, you might doubt my loyalty and consider whether I can really make more profit than loss for you, so I went to the Grand Tutor."

He thought for a moment and added, "Besides, the Imperial Censor and you have always been at odds. Your relationship has reached a point where it can no longer decline. Even if you help me out, it may be useless."

Seeing him talking a lot, Xiao Yurong looked cold, "Then why did you join me?"

Huh? Is this something you can say?

Gongsun Qian's eyes had just turned around and before he could say anything he had made up, Xiao Yurong called out, "Yushu."

Yu Shu drew his sword.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Gongsun Qian was spineless. "Because among all the lords who could surrender, you are the richest and the most unconventional. I can drink as much as I want without any restraint. And, and..."

"And?" Xiao Yurong waited for him to continue.

He said weakly: "Besides, you are a princess, so you may be much easier to coax."

"What? I think I'm easier to fool than them?" Xiao Yurong understood what he meant.

"No, no, no," Gongsun Qian said with a smile, "I just think the princess is kind-hearted, like a fairy, and she wouldn't cry out for war and killing at every turn."

He first put Xiao Yurong's hat higher, but unfortunately this trick didn't work on Xiao Yurong.

Xiao Yurong kicked Gongsun Qin on the knee, and Gongsun Qin fell to his knees with a cry.

He was a delicate man, a weak and fragile scholar, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"You're right. This is the first time we meet today. Since you have to be loyal to me in the future, I have to set the rules first." Xiao Yurong looked down at him.

She said calmly, "From now on, you will obey my orders. Loyalty is the most important thing. Secondly, I do not keep idle people under my command. If you eat the emperor's salary, you must be loyal to the emperor. Make full use of your talents and be of use."

After hitting someone with a club, it is natural to give him a sweet treat. Xiao Yurong said, "Of course, I will not treat my subordinates unfairly. I can give you the money and wine you mentioned just now. As a rule, I don't have that much here."

"Do you understand what I said?" The smile on Xiao Yurong's face was gentle.

"I understand, I understand!" Gongsun Qin nodded repeatedly with cold sweat on his forehead.
