Chapter 260 Disobedience
Chapter 260 Disobedience
Lu Peixiu was good at martial arts, and a group of maids and old women rushed over but failed to catch her. Instead, she kicked her left, punched her right, or swept her legs, and all the maids and old women who came forward were easily knocked to the ground.
Not only that, while playing and fighting, they inevitably bump into some decorations in the house.
After a few ping-pong sounds, there were several broken pieces of vases or porcelain ornaments on the ground.
Lu Peiyun's eyes lit up, but she was also filled with worry. She hesitated, not knowing what to do.
"It's a rebellion, it's against the heavens..."
Mrs. Lu was so angry that she kept repeating the same sentence over and over again.
"Someone, go call the guards in the mansion over. This is really lawless."
Immediately a maid ran out to call for help.
But he had just run out for a short while before coming back panting.
"Madam, there's a message from the front yard, asking the second young lady to pack up and go to the palace."
Madam Lu was still furious, her chest still rising and falling violently, "Why did you ask her to enter the palace?"
The maid said, "To reply to the Madam, I heard that someone close to Princess Nan came to personally invite the Second Miss to accompany the Princess in the palace for a few days."
Lu Peixiu was delighted when she heard this and was about to walk out. But she rolled her eyes and said, "I can't go. I still have to kneel for three hours. Go and tell the people around Princess Nan that I will go to the palace to accompany Princess Nan in three hours."
As he said this, he actually walked to the yard and knelt down.
Madam Lu was almost mad to death. She just refused to kneel, but now she kneeled down again, relying on the order of Princess Nan. Wasn't it just to embarrass her?
Madam Lu gnashed her teeth and asked, "Did you hear correctly? It was really the Second Young Lady that Princess Nan invited, not the First Young Lady in the mansion?"
The maid nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Madam, it was the housekeeper who came to deliver the message personally."
Madam Lu took a deep breath. If someone else had invited her today, she would have found all kinds of excuses to refuse. But that was Princess Nan, the future queen, and she didn't have the guts to disobey. She could only endure all her resentment.
His eyes shot poisonous glances at the person kneeling in the yard. He never expected that he could actually get close to Princess Nan.
But on second thought, given her unruly personality, it wouldn't be long before she offended Princess Nan.
Humph, if you offend Princess Nan, it’s not as simple as kneeling as punishment. It’s hard to say whether you can save your life.
It depends on how long she can be proud.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Lu's expression finally eased a little. She stood up and walked slowly to the yard. It took her a long time before she forced out a smile.
"Okay, Peixiu, since Princess Nan has invited you, you should go to the palace and accompany Princess Nan."
Lu Peixiu asked, "Aunt, I am kneeling as punishment. Didn't you say that we should not disobey our elders? You told me to kneel down yourself, so I can't disobey you."
Aunt Lu almost couldn't maintain the smile she had just forced out, and she took a deep breath to suppress her anger.
"You don't have to kneel now, kid. Go into the palace now."
Lu Peixiu smiled and shook her head, and Madam Lu coaxed her.
But Lu Peixiu didn't give in for a long time.
The people in the front yard couldn't wait any longer and sent a maid to invite them.
Madam Lu was anxious, "What do you want?"
Lu Peixiu looked innocent, "I didn't do anything. I just didn't dare to disobey my aunt and kneel for three hours. Besides, I don't have any decent clothes or jewelry. It would be rude to go to the palace to see Princess Nan. I'd better not go."
Madam Lu understood and wanted to make compensation.
She could only grit her teeth and stamp her feet and order the maid to get two pieces of fine silk and satin and a complete set of pearl jewelry for her.
Lu Peixiu accepted it happily, but looked embarrassed.
"We only have cloth here, and it will take a while for the clothes to be made. Aunt, do you think I should go buy two sets of good clothes right away?"
Mrs. Lu could only hold back her anger and asked the nanny to get some money. She thought, why would she accept the silk if she was going to buy clothes?
After some bargaining, he finally gave her two hundred taels of silver.
Lu Peixiu put the banknote in his pocket, and just as he stood up, he knelt down again. "Aunt, I want to confirm whether I don't have to kneel for the time being or not in the future. If I have to kneel again after I come back from the palace, then I'd better kneel before entering the palace."
Mrs. Lu’s back teeth were almost bitten off, but she still had to put on a smile.
"Of course you don't have to kneel anymore."
"Okay, I get it then."
She stood up quickly, took the cloth and jewelry, and left happily.
Don't forget to bring Lu Peiyun along.
After leaving Madam Lu's yard, he gave the things in his hand to Lu Peiyun and also stuffed a hundred taels of silver notes into her pocket.
"Everyone who sees it gets a share. I'll give you everything. I'm going to the palace and won't be back for a while. Be careful and don't let anyone bully you. If anyone bullies you, just say I'm protecting you. Princess Nan and I are friends. Now everyone in the palace will give me some face."
Lv Peiyun nodded gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Peixiu. I understand."
Her eyes were red. This was the first time someone defended her like this.
After Lu Peixiu gave Lu Peiyun some instructions, she ran to the front yard like the wind.
It must be that guy Yun Yan who came to find her under the name of Yun Xi in order to get her out of Lu Mansion.
Hehe, that’s great.
Even if she didn't get to cling to Yun Xi, it would be good to cling to Yun Yan.
When she ran to the front yard, she saw not only Yun Yan, but also Ren Dong.
She immediately understood that it was Yun Xi who really came to ask her to enter the palace.
"Honeysuckle?"
He shouted and rushed towards Honeysuckle.
"Ahhh, Honeysuckle, I missed you so much. How have you been lately?"
Honeysuckle smiled and replied respectfully, "Miss Lu, I am very good."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lu Peixiu followed Yun Yan, Ren Dong and others out of the Lu Mansion.
Lu Peixiu entered the palace, and Yunxi, who had been depressed in the palace for a long time, finally had a playmate.
The two of them sneaked out of the palace every day and wandered around the capital, having a lot of fun.
Ying Tianchen couldn't meet his princess every day, and he was helpless.
He has been very busy recently as he has just taken over the government and has too many affairs to deal with.
With the change of dynasties, many positions became vacant and needed to be filled.
Ying Tianchen decided to hold an imperial examination immediately to select a group of new officials to fill the vacancies.
The purpose of this special examination was to select new officials, so the additional examination was the provincial examination, and only scholars were eligible to participate.
When students all over the world heard about this, they were extremely happy and rushed to the capital without stopping.
When Yun Xi and Lu Peixiu were strolling on the streets these days, they saw students from all over the country coming to the capital to take the exams every day.
"Hey, does that guy look familiar to you?"
Yun Xi nudged Lu Peixiu and pointed at a scholar-looking man and asked.
Lu Peixiu followed her gaze and her eyes lit up.
"Oh, it's Zhu Shuyi."
As he said that, he pulled Yunxi and ran over there.
Unexpectedly, neither of them noticed that a woman happened to walk over and they bumped into each other.
Yun Xi and Lu Peixiu were both martial artists, so their lower bodies were relatively stable, and both were fine. The other person cried out "ouch" and fell to the ground.
"I'm sorry, are you okay..."
Before she even asked the word "bar", Yun Xi's eyes widened: "Wang Daya?"
