<strong>Chapter 77 I Was the No. One</strong>


    “You... Why did you p me?” The whole room was as quiet as a desert then. Princess Yang was attempting to restrain herself from tearing up Qiu Yn. The little girl, Miss Yang, jolted out of her shock finally. She cried like she never cried before.


    Seeing what was happening to their little sister, the rest two Miss Yangs rushed to stand up, checking her injury — As a little girl, her skin must be tender. But Qiu Yn always had a strong hand. Fortunately, she did not use her full strength to p Miss Yang. But fingerprints were still shown immediately on her face.


    Miss Yangs were indignant. One of them held up andforted the girl while the other one panned Qiu Yn. “You came in from nowhere and we did not know each other at all. We don’t know you are Commandery Princess. That’s why we did not salute to you — But how can you p her so heavily?!”


    Qiu Yn grunted to her and found herself a seat. “Am I wrong? Am I wrong? Didn’t you hear what she just said to me? She is rude.”


    The girl who quarreled with Qiu Yn growled, “You look young, but you speak rudely. Yes, I agree that my sister spoke bluntly to you...”


    “There is a senior over here, and you must know here is not your home.” Qiu Yn interrupted her. “Here is the Prince’s Mansion of Xihe! You are guests. Even if it were a maiding in, you would have no right tosh out at her? Here is not your home. Here is Qiu Family.”


    She copied eighth young master Jiang’s verbose quarrel skill, “Or you want to add your family name to Qiu? So, you leap at the chance of being a hostess of the Prince’s Mansion?”


    Her words almost killed the four Yangs, the three little girls and the senior one, Princess Yang.


    “How can a girl talk like that?” said Princess Yang in a trembling voice. “Go and apologize to your sisters now!” yelled Princess Yang.


    “My aunt, I don’t think you are right.” said Qiu Yn, not looking at Miss Yangs. “There are so many so-called sisters in a family. Please answer me, my aunt, do I have any blood rtion with Yang Family? Nothing rted! Yang Family is your mother’s family. No rtion with me at all. How can they be my sisters?”


    “Yang Family is at least a decent family, but so hurried to join Qiu Family. What an amazing joke?” said Qiu Yn, disdainfully and arrogantly.


    “Nobody wants to be your rtive! You are alone in the world. Your parents have died! Your title of Commandery Princess means nothing to us. Your father was defeated in a war and your mother...” the girl who argued with Qiu Yn snarled. She never met a person who was so eloquent before, which drove her crazy. So, she snarled what she should and should not unstoppably.


    Before she finished her words, Qiu Yn stood up quickly, kicking the table in front of her over. She rolled up her sleeves and growled, “You bitch. You insulted my parents. Are you getting tired of living!!!”


    ... Half a dayter, indignant Princess Yang watched Qiu Yn go out of the room. Qiu Yn won the battlepletely. Princess Yang then looked at the three girls who were defeated in the battle, sighed and said to the girl who started the fight tiredly, “Yishi, you know how mean she is now?”


    Yang Yishi nodded, sobbing, “It was my fault that I didn’t take aunt’s advice to heart. I thought I could give her a head start.” But the result was the opposite. Qiu Yn taught them a lesson by pping, kicking and cursing. The new brocade dress was even full of footprints. What a shame!


    “I heard from your uncle that this little b*tch once learned Kung Fu from Ruan Family.” said Princess Yang. She was angry at Yang Yishi because she started the fight but no ability to end it. It should be noted that Princess Yang had been reinstating Qiu Yn’s bad temper over and over again to them.


    However, this conceited Yang Yishi did not put her words in heart.


    But Yang Yishi was the only daughter of her brother Yang Tao. She was spoiled in her family. Princess Yang thought that she would need the help of her mother’s family in the future, so, she decided to restrain herself. She must proceed to find a way out of the trouble, “I just forgot to tell you how mean she is. Or you will know how to fight against her. It was my fault. I don’t give you helpful advice.”


    “Please don’t me yourself. Oh... It’s just skin wounds. Oh... I don’t think that bitch would have the guts to do it for real!” said Yang Yishi. She was a little arrogant but she also could ept advice. She now realized that she disrupted her aunt’s n, so, she pretended to be considerable — She was the oldest one in the three. As she said so, the rest two agreed subsequently.


    The fourforted each other for a while. One brought up the n again, “As we fought with that bitch. I think that she will refuse us to attend the girl’s school. What can we do now?”


    In the first ce, Xiuyan suggested to Princess Yang that Qiu Mingzhu went to the girl’s school with Qiu Yn. If they fought with each other, Princess Yang would not be at a loss anyway. Given that Qiu Mingzhu was not a match for Qiu Yn, Princess Yang decided to write a letter to her mother’s family, asking for sending two or three eloquent girls over here to study with Qiu Mingzhu and Qiu Yn. What Princess Yang’s immediate concern was Qiu Mingzhu’s betrayal to Qiu Yn.


    Since Yang Yishi, Yang Yifu and Yang Yinian heard that Qiu Yn once fought with Yang Tao on the court, they had hoarded hatred to this Commandery Princess Ningyi. After hearing the girl’s school thing, they begged toe, revenging themselves on Qiu Yn. However, they did not expect that this Commandery Princess was so tough. Sheshed out at them even before she reported her name. They came here with confidence but failed their fight finally.


    Yang Yishi got a beat, which must make her lost interest in the school.


    But the girl’s school... which should not be given up easily. If so, it meant that they were defeated by Qiu Yn. That was the loss they could not stand.


    They looked at each other, knowing nothing for the next. Finally, Yang Yifu opened her mouth.


    Princess Yang immediately turned to her, “Yifu?”


    “She is rude and cruel.” said Yang Yifu, who was the one trying to quarrel with Qiu Yn a few minutes ago. She was deemed as a talkative girl in her family. But she was defeated by Qiu Yn — She reverted to beposed and organized. She proceeded, “She was not like a Commandery Princess. She is a shrew and nagging woman. But we are from a decent family with good manners. We were cultivated to be nice and polite girls. She is totally not our type.”


    After defending her sisters against Qiu Yn, Yang Yifu becameposed. She said, “We can deal with her. We just don’t want to degrade our level and talk more with her. That’s all!”


    She looked at Yang Yishi and asked, “Sister, what about Miss Sheng...”


    Yang Yishi turned to be angry after hearing she mentioned, “Miss Sheng”, she said, “Don’t mention her before me.”


    “There is a saying, ‘tobat poison with poison’. It is appropriate to deal with this bitch with another poison.” said Yang Yifu. “You don’t like her anyway, so it is not bad to ask her toe over and go to the girl’s school together. We are d to see one of them to be defeated by the other one. Right?”


    “Miss Sheng?” asked Princess Yang, curiously. “Is it the girl born by your youngest aunt from Yishi’s family?”


    Yang Yishi shed a look at Yang Yifu unhappily, replying awkwardly, “Yes, it’s her. Ma’am.”


    Yang Yishi was reluctant to mention her because Miss Sheng (the full name was Sheng Shishui) was said to be the one whose father Sheng Wujiu, the Suiyang Prefect was dead before she was born. However, the date she was born did not match the time of her conception. It was said that as the title of Sheng was less potent than Lu Family and her two brothers’ looking were simr to members of Sheng Family’s, they were epted by Sheng Family.


    But Sheng Family was reluctant to rear her. Her mother Lu also knew she could do nothing about it. So, she sent her baby to her mother’s home.


    Her family background, even though she was the granddaughter of Lu Family, must make her an unfavorable one in the family.


    What’s worse was that after sending her baby to her mother’s home, Lu did not perform duty as a mother. She even neither cared about her baby nor sent child maintenance. It’s reasonable that Lu family was angry about her and her baby.


    Under this circumstance, it was safe for us to say that Sheng Shishui did have a tough childhood. However, the fact was not. She became the most favorite one in Lu Family. Even Yang Yishi had lost her position in the Family. The rest of the daughters of Lu Family’s, from time to time, had to sumb to her.


    What she could do was definitely beyond our imagination.


    “If we get Miss Sheng to attend the girl’s school, I am sure we can enjoy “good stories” every day!” said Princess Yang. She was happy to get this girl after pondering the rumors rted to Sheng Shishui’s family background.


    But after a while, she thought that it might not be easy to ask this girl toe. “Miss Sheng has no direct rtionship with the Prince’s Mansion. Is she willing to help us?”


    It must be noted that at present, Qiu Yn was well-known as a fighter in the court. Despite there were many girls in Families like Yang Yishi, feeling unconvinced. They wanted to fight against it if possible. But more girls were rational and they knew that Qiu Yn must be a tough girl who had fought against Empress Dowager, Emperor and Empress in the court. The key part was that she won in every fight.


    “It’s Okay to have her over here.” grunted Yang Yishi. “My youngest aunt is a cheap person. Although my uncle and aunt raised Sheng Shishui, it is unreasonable they must give her dowry, right? So, she tried everything to deceive my grandma into giving her money... If you can give her candy, I am sure she wille!”


    Thinking about her suggestion for a while, Princess Yang said, “Well... You go there and talk with her?”


    Yang Yishi and the rest two looked at each other. Yang Yishipared the hatred value between “I don’t want to talk with Sheng Shishui” and “Qiu Yn, the bitch, I am angry at her very much”. The result was thetter outweighed the former much. So, she nodded and said, “Okay, I will!”


    One side, they were discussing how to get a strong supporter, on the other side, Qiu Yn was also analyzing the situation aftering back, “I am sure Princess Yang asked me to go there not for meeting her three nieces. As I had a spat with them, I guess her n must not work out now. This feeling was so good. I am d to see her heartbroken...”


    She was satisfied with the happy ending. And then she thought, “So, why did she ask me to go there? For what?” Thinking it once again from the very beginning, she guessed it must be rted to the girl’s school. “If she wants to get somebody in with unresisted reasons, I have to ept it unless Miss Shao rejected.”


    After talking with Miss Shao, Miss Shao said, “I can teach five or six students at the same time. To me, it’s not a big trouble. In effect, we should not confine ourselves regardless of other’s suggestions. As you have to stay home because of your mourning period, it will be good to have several ssmates learning together andmunicating with each other.”


    Not like that at all! There were plenty of examples that ssmates fought against each other in history!


    “I don’t need ssmates.” said Qiu Yn, frowning. “My brother Cousin Ruan is a new Jinshi. I can learn from him if you are not here. Miss Shao, you are a clever person. You know that Princess Yang is mean to me. The girls she rmends will not stand on my side. My goal is simple. I just want a quiet ce for my studies. I don’t want to be involved in troubles!”


    Shao Yuemei smiled gently at her. As a senior, she wasposed. The experience she went through had taught her much. She said, “Your Grace, to be honest, you will marry a guy from a family of high status, wealth, and power. But there is a saying, “The environment in a family of high status is as tough as in the desert’. ording to my teaching experience, a talented girl might not get along with others in such a family. You should remember, to get along with people, in particr, those who are hostile for you is actually a lesson we must grasp in our life. Why don’t you take your future ssmates as a life lesson you must learn?”


    “But I am in my mourning period. I am not in a mood to face or solve the trouble.” said Qiu Yn. What she said, of course, was not her true meaning. The true one was that she would like to face big trouble. She did not want to “y games” with those little girls. No satisfaction even if she won.


    “How can everything goes as you wish?” said Shao Yuemei gently. “I still insist that you should have a few ssmates. It’s always a sharpening of friendship, for better or worse.”


    Unexpectedly, this open-to-persuasion Miss Shao turned to be stubborn. Qiu Yn might be angry at her if she were not Miss Shao. However, Miss Shao was good at rtionship stuff. The guestsing over with her for inspecting that day had shown their muscles to her.


    Thinking of this, Qiu Yn had topromise, “I am a little tired of learning books. So, Miss Shao, can you introduce a teacher teaching Kung Fu for us?”


    When the Kung Fu ss began, the students would practice with each other. At that time, I, as Commandery Princess, would not mind being dubbed as “the best master of Kung Fu in the girls’ world!”
