Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

The surrounding people had all arrived and were astonished to see the young master of the Grand Tutor being threatened by Qin Yu with his chin being pinched.

Seeing so many people staring at him, Leng Xiucheng never imagined things would develop to this point. He made up his mind that he must find a way to get rid of Qin Yudu.

Qin Yu read from Leng Xiucheng's mind that Leng Xiucheng was actually thinking of killing him. Qin Yu thought to himself, Leng Xiucheng's skills are so mediocre, yet he wants to take care of me. He's just daydreaming.

Qin Yu walked up to Leng Xiucheng and asked, "I sensed murderous intent in your eyes. Do you want to kill me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Xiucheng remained silent.

Later, in order to teach Leng Xiucheng a lesson, Qin Yu took advantage of the fact that Leng Xiucheng had been given ten lashes.

Unexpectedly, after Leng Xiucheng was given ten strokes of the cane, he started cursing Qin Yu, saying, "So Young Master Leng can still talk. In that case, let's give him five more strokes."

Qin Yu then had Mo Yun send everyone back. At this time, the Grand Tutor was completely unaware of this. When the Grand Tutor saw that his son had been beaten so badly, he felt heartbroken for his son at that moment.

He really couldn't understand what his son had done to offend Qin Yu.

"My poor son, what is it that you do every day..."

As he spoke, the Grand Tutor's tears began to fall, and Mo Yun, before leaving, gave him a warning: "If you don't want your son to be beaten again in the future, then you should advise your son to stop causing trouble at the Princess's residence."

After finishing his sentence, Mo Yun left without even turning his head back.

At this moment, Leng Xiucheng had already fainted. The Grand Tutor hurriedly ordered the servants to carry Leng Xiucheng into the house, and finally invited the best doctor in the area.

After Leng Xiucheng woke up, he told the Grand Tutor the whole story. Unexpectedly, he was scolded by the Grand Tutor. This was clearly provoking Qin Yu. No wonder Qin Yu gave him more than a dozen lashes.

"Her Highness the Princess no longer has any affection for you. What you are doing now will only annoy her. As her father, I just want to advise you not to provoke the Princess again in the future."

Indeed, this matter is not the princess's fault; it is her own fault.

He really didn't understand why his son always had to provoke Qin Yu.

"By the way, this Lord Li..."

Before he could finish speaking, Leng Xiucheng told the Grand Tutor that he would never marry Lord Li's daughter.

The Grand Tutor was furious at that moment; he never expected that his own son would be unwilling to marry her.

Ultimately, having exhausted all other options, the Grand Tutor decided to confine Leng Xiucheng for a period of time.

This matter also reached the palace. When Qin Yanling learned of it, he felt that Qin Yu had done nothing wrong. Qin Yanling really couldn't understand why Leng Xiucheng had to provoke Qin Yu.

This is clearly a suicide mission, isn't it?

After all, Qin Yanling knew Qin Yu's temperament. More importantly, it was fortunate that Qin Yu did not kill the person. If it were Qin Yu in the past, he probably would have already drawn his sword and killed the person.

Mo Yun returned to the princess's residence and informed Qin Yu that everything had been done properly.

"Have you been bored staying by my side these days? Or do you want to do something else? If you do, I will grant your wish."

Qin Yu said that Mo Yun told Qin Yu that he did not want to go anywhere else, but only wanted to stay by Qin Yu's side.

"I have met so many men, but this is the first time I have met such a stupid man. You are so strong that you can beat me. More importantly, if you were not by my side, you would definitely have a limitless future."

"Your Highness is unaware of the fact that I grew up in the Dark Night Pavilion since I was a child. I have no relatives. If I had any, Your Highness would be considered my family."

Qin Yu felt very uncomfortable after hearing what Mo Yun said.

Qin Yu walked up to Mo Yun and reached out to pat Mo Yun's head. This scene was cleverly witnessed by Yuan Jie, who immediately felt that he had come at the wrong time.

Mo Yun hurriedly kept a certain distance from Qin Yu. Qin Yu's hand stopped in mid-air and took a while to withdraw. For some reason, she felt uncomfortable after hearing what Mo Yun had said.

Turning his head, he saw Yuan Jie. "Commander Yuan, have you come here? Is there something you need to report?"

"Your Highness, you may not know this, but I have already strengthened the defenses in your residence. However, while I was strengthening the defenses, I saw someone acting suspiciously. I was just about to follow them when I realized that the person had escaped."

"This is of no concern to me."

"But I feel they seem to be pushing their luck too far. They've already come to the area around the princess's residence before, patrolled without success, and now they're here again. Doesn't Your Highness intend to do anything about it?"

Qin Yu laughed heartily a few times. Most of the officials in the court looked down on Qin Yu, and more importantly, they wanted to weaken all the military power in Qin Yu's hands. If Qin Yu panicked, wouldn't that give them an opportunity? How could Qin Yu be so foolish as to be so stupid?

Listening to what Qin Yu was saying, Yuan Jie suddenly felt that Qin Yu's words made a lot of sense.

"If what Your Highness says is true, then I do have an idea."

Qin Yu was very curious, wondering what this person was thinking.

"Why don't you tell me what you're thinking?"

"I think Your Highness is capable, so I've been trying to win over some honest and upright officials."

Qin Yu shook her head.

It was getting late, so Yuanjie was instructed to continue arranging for people to guard the princess's residence.

Time flew by and the second day arrived quickly.

The officials in the imperial court had arrived at the court early in the morning.

"Today is the day our neighboring country is to pay tribute. I wonder if we will be able to succeed today, or if we will be delayed again."

The officials were all talking at once.

Unexpectedly, the Minister of War also came on this day of tribute.
