Resisting the Wind and Splendor

"You dare! If you dare hit me again, A-Jin won't let you get away with it!"

Tuoba Feiyuan was truly terrified; he was utterly terrified of being beaten.

After arriving in the capital, apart from the unreasonable Consort Rui and the Empress who rose to power through men, no one dared to order her to be flogged.

Everyone else treated her with utmost respect; when had she ever been bullied like this before?

Even Chu Yueli and his sister have not openly attacked her so far.

Tuoba Feiyuan never expected that she would encounter a wilder girl than herself today, who would beat her without any rhyme or reason.

Is there really no one going to do anything about this bullying?

"Chu Yueli, you dare to have someone hit me! I'm going to tell Ajin to kill you and your brother! I'm going to kill you both!"

"What does this have to do with me?" Chu Yueli leaned against the tree trunk, glancing at her sideways: "You don't actually think I'm so powerful that I can order around even the princess of Dongzhou, do you? Besides, you were sparring, and you were outmatched and got beaten up, disgracing Dongling. As a citizen of Dongling, I haven't even questioned you yet!"

"you……"

"Heh, this princess will see who else you can turn to for help!" Tuoba Liuli raised her hand and lashed her with the whip again.

This time, Tuoba Feiyuan didn't even have the strength to dodge. She fell to the ground and was whipped, crying out in pain, "Ajin, Ajin..."

"Didn't you despise women who rely on men the most? Why do you now want to find a man to save you?"

Chu Yueli snorted coldly, her eyes full of mocking laughter: "Someone like you, who's just a bully borrowing power, dares to look down on others? Take a look at yourself first!"

Tuoba Feiyuan immediately gritted her teeth, refusing to call Lu Fengjin's name again, even if it meant death.

"You bully honest people, this is what happens to you!" Tuoba Liuli's whip fell on her body once again.

"Ah..." Tuoba Feiyuan's eyes were filled with tears. She never dreamed that such an outrageous thing could happen right under the emperor's nose.

"You...you have no regard for the law?"

"When you bullied General Chu, did you ever think about the law?" Tuoba Liuli felt a pang of pain in her heart whenever she thought of Chu Xiaohe's upright eyes.

She also bullied General Chu today; she deserves to die!

Therefore, when she wielded the whip, she became even more ruthless!

"Ah! Ah!" Tuoba Feiyuan was in so much pain that she almost fainted.

A sigh came from not far away.

"Big brother?" Chu Yue felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Thinking of Tuoba Feiyuan's words, and of her elder brother's despair and grief when he was trapped by Lu Fengjin and stabbed by Tuoba Feiyuan, she almost couldn't hold back the fierceness in her eyes.

If Tuoba Liuli hadn't come today, Tuoba Feiyuan would surely be dead!

But in the end, she calmed down.

"General Chu..." When Tuoba Liuli saw him, she felt extremely guilty, and the whip in her hand stopped without her realizing it.

Seeing his chance, Tuoba Feiyuan got up and ran towards Lu Fengjin like a madman.

Upon seeing this, Lu Beimo withdrew his palm strike and landed lightly a short distance away.

Liu Yun immediately offered him a chair, and he sat down, his handsome starry eyes carrying a hint of amusement.

"A-Jin..." Tuoba Feiyuan ran to Lu Fengjin, threw herself into his arms, and burst into tears of sorrow and embarrassment:

"Ah Jin, they hit me! They ganged up on me! Waaaaah... Ah Jin! Kill them! Kill them all for me! Kill them all! Waaaaah..."

Lu Fengjin watched the group slowly approaching, his gaze finally landing on Chu Yueli. His eyes reddened with anger: "You actually teamed up with them to bully Yuan'er, Chu Yueli, you've gone too far!"
