Quick Wear: The saints are too miserable, the host will never be soft-hearted

"I would like to ask the Queen Mother to send a martial arts instructor to my residence to teach the princess. I also want to delve deeper into martial arts."

"Oh? You're not afraid of standing in the sun doing horse stance anymore? You're not worried about getting a tan? Are you willing to endure hardships and shed tears?"

The queen pondered for a while, then looked up and asked three questions in a row.

"I will do my best to overcome it, mother, please rest assured."

Everything she learns is hers, she can do it!

"Okay, I trust you. When the general returns from the border and has some free time, I will send him to your house to teach him martial arts."

"what?!"

Lu Yi's voice trembled as she thought of the famous general in the court!

That was General Shi Wenxu, who had been stationed at the border for many years and whose military exploits could be lined up in a long row!

"Isn't this... isn't this a bit... Queen Mother, this... is killing a chicken useless..."

Lu Yi was so shocked that he stuttered, and under the empress's stern gaze, he didn't dare to finish the proverb.

But she really felt that way.

A young child waiting for enlightenment and an adult with no foundation.

Why would she need to bother such a big shot?

"Don't talk nonsense. You are my daughter. You will definitely be the next emperor. You are naturally worthy of being taught martial arts by the best general."

"Besides, I didn't detain him in Kyoto just for you. Shi Wenxu has been away from the capital for many years. It's only natural that I should give him a long vacation and let him stay in the capital to accompany his family. His salary will not be reduced."

"I'll teach you during my vacation, and that kid in your house. For him, what could be more difficult than fighting a war?"

Lu Yi rubbed her stiff face and met the Queen's loving eyes. She lowered her head and replied, "Yes, Queen Mother."

The Queen watched Lu Yi walk out of the hall, retracted her doting gaze, and suddenly saw someone standing in the hall.

"Why are you still here?" she asked.

I forgot about you.

Lu Jue moved his legs, which were numb from standing, and walked to the center of the hall. His voice was bitter as if it had been soaked in coptis.

"My son, please retire."

She left in time, not daring to let the Queen see the deep hatred in her eyes.

Lu Yi! What are you doing right? Why do you deserve all the good things?

Now, even the man she likes is snatched away, so how could that lazy Lu Yi suddenly become interested in martial arts?

Haha, she doesn’t believe a word about teaching martial arts.

It is obvious that the Queen wants to cram the General into Prince Chen's Palace, because the one who is close to the water gets the moon first!

Lu Jue thought of the rumor that as soon as she entered Prince Chen's Palace, she bewitched her elder sister to the point that she never left the palace except when attending court.

Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.

Lu Jue loosened his hand that had left purple nail marks, and a calculating smile flashed across his eyes.

Since the matter of the martial arts teacher had already been mentioned, Lu Yi no longer took it to heart.

Anyway, the Queen will not go back on her word once she has agreed to something.

Lu Yi's life was no different. He still got up early to attend court, played chess, and dealt with matters in the mansion from time to time.

It was a leisurely day when the doorman came over with a thick stack of invitations.

"Your Highness, these are the ones I've accumulated over the past two weeks. There are already dozens of them."

Lu Yi glanced at the servant's hand casually.

Wow! It's been over a month since I left the Sui Palace, but how come the invitations keep piling up?

Lu Yi picked up one at random and flipped through it. The content was nothing more than appreciating flowers and drinking tea.

The posters were all the newly married ladies of Prince Sui’s palace, and their target was Lady Liu in her palace.

"Next time the Sui Wang Mansion sends someone with an invitation, you should reply to him and tell him that Liu Shijun only wants to stay with the prince in the mansion and is unwilling to attend these banquets. Call him master and give up on this idea."

Lu Yi picked up the second letter, wanting to see if there was any other invitation besides enjoying flowers and drinking tea.

This is a visiting card, practicing martial arts? Lu Yi looked towards the signature, Shi Wenxu.

Isn't this the butcher knife that the Queen Mother found for her? No, it's the General!

Lu Yi flipped through the post and looked carefully at the signature.

Among these dozens of letters, there were three visiting cards, all sent from the Shi Mansion.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I failed to discover it in time and caused you to suffer the consequences."

"Get up now. Go and send a notice to the Shi Mansion, saying that the prince has finished his morning court and is at the mansion every day, waiting for him to come and teach the princess at any time."

"Yes." The doorman went back with a thick stack of invitations.

Lu Yi scratched her temple and asked why the general sent by the Queen Mother had not come yet.

She had been waiting in the mansion, waiting for the general to finish his work and have some free time.

Unexpectedly, they were also waiting for her approval.

Shi Wenxu's post received a reply. The next day, Lu Yi returned to the mansion after attending the morning court. Just after sitting for a cup of tea, a servant came to inform him that the general had arrived.

I was a little nervous when they met for the first time, and Lu Yi kept imagining what Nian Gengyao looked like in his mind.

Unexpectedly, the real person is quite bookish.

There was no greeting or flattery. Shi Wenxu simply bowed and began to teach in a serious manner.

At the beginning, Shi Wenxu had not yet fully immersed himself in the role of a martial arts teacher. He thought that he was teaching the princess and the most favored prince.

Whenever he heard something like "squatting and running in circles" or something like that, he would always ask a question.

"Is your Highness all right? Is your Highness all right? If I have offended you, please tell me directly and I will correct it."

Ever since he learned about the task assigned to him by the empress, the whole family was so nervous that they sighed even while eating, for fear that he would offend the emperor's beloved daughter.

Shi Wenxu always kept his father's words in mind, and whenever he saw the two children, one big and one small, unable to hold on, he would ask them a question.

Lu Lin is young and his bones haven't fully grown yet, so his daily training consists of running laps. He perseveres even when he sweats a lot.

But Lu Yi couldn't do that. She not only had to run laps, but she also had to do horse stance. She had to lay a solid foundation before she could learn more advanced skills.

Every time she forced herself to count the seconds silently in her heart, she would hear Shi Wenxu calmly ask if she was okay.

Lu Yi raised his chin stubbornly and nodded gently.

It fell to the ground with a patter of sweat.

It was not what Sui Wang had imagined, that being close to the water would get the moon first. It was all tears and sweat.

If I were to make an inappropriate analogy.

Shi Wenxu, at this moment, is the same as the instructor in her mind when she was in school.

Although it was cold and ruthless, the training was indeed effective, so Lu Yi gritted his teeth and persevered.

Shi Wenxu was unable to stay in Kyoto for a full year.

There was a war at the border, and although he was not the only one who had to go, he volunteered to go to the battlefield.

Compared to being in Prince Chen's Mansion, he still prefers the feeling of fighting on the battlefield.

The seasons change quickly.

Lu Yi is no longer the woman who would get darker during the day and hide in the quilt at night and silently lament her fate.

She still followed the two training schedules that the general had written for her and Lu Lin before he left, and she no longer shed tears because of muscle soreness.

A remote courtyard in Prince Chen's Mansion, Yuanzhuyuan.

Liu Qiqi, who successfully lost more than 20 pounds, still leans against the door every day with a lonely and lifeless look in his eyes.

"Qingtu, can I be released in three days?"

"Master, there are still six days until the full year."
