Du Xiaoyun tried to slip away.
But Rui w.a.n.gfei noticed and shouted, "Stop right there!"
Du Xiaoyun could only endure as she obediently sat back in the chair.
Du Xiaoyun couldn’t calm down. The Crown Princess finally came to the women"s academy; she must see the Crown Princess no matter what!
She remained sitting in her chair, but her eyes always glanced outside. One could tell that she didn’t want to be here at all.
Rui w.a.n.gfei was so enraged by her younger sister that she glared at her and almost grabbed a candlestick on the spot and threw it at her!
Just what kind of evil did she do in her previous life? How could she have such a younger sister who turned her elbow outward?
Fortunately, Li Wanwan was seriously listening to her cla.s.s.
She sat on the mat opposite Rui w.a.n.gfei, and there was a guqin on the small case in front of her, which was given to her by Musician Xie during the exam a year ago.
The quality of the sound was very good. She liked it so much and cherished it very much. She took good care of it every day, keeping it from being stained with dust.
Li Wanwan was very happy with today"s cla.s.s. She was a daughter from a poor family and didn’t get along with most of the young misses in the women"s academy.
She couldn’t even grab a music room on normal days, let alone a good seat in cla.s.s. She was always the one in the corner of the last row, far away from the teachers.
But now she was very close to Rui w.a.n.gfei, and she could hear and see the lessons better.
Rui w.a.n.gfei"s anger caused by her younger sister finally dissipated because of the good student Li Wanwan"s earnest desire to be taught. She began to give Li Wanwan a good lesson.
That"s right. She was only teaching Li Wanwan, for she knew that Du Xiaoyun, this girl, had her heart somewhere else and definitely wouldn’t listen to anything she taught at all!
Rui w.a.n.gfei did not rush to give advice, but had Li Wanwan play a song first in order to understand the level of Li Wanwan’s skills.
Li Wanwan played the song "Autumn Frost" that she learned this year. The melody was gentle and the guqin sounds were melodious. It wasn’t a difficult piece to play, but the requirements for details were very high.
"You play well." Rui w.a.n.gfei nodded. "It"s just that your fingering is still lacking a bit. How long have you been learning the guqin?"
Li Wanwan replied, "Responding to Rui w.a.n.gfei, I"ve been studying at the women"s academy for a year now."
"Only one year?" Rui w.a.n.gfei was shocked and quickly praised, "Then you didn"t play just well, you played extremely well."
Li Wanwan dropped her eyes. That was because someone gave her pointers.
Rui w.a.n.gfei gave her some directions. When it came to learning the guqin, Li Wanwan wasn’t a genius, but she was also very receptive.
Rui w.a.n.gfei said, "You have nearly mastered this song. You can practice it again later. Today, I"ll teach you a new song."
Another large cla.s.sroom at the end of the corridor was packed, even the corridor itself and the window were crowded with people. Luckily, it was on the first floor, otherwise many people might have had an accident.
The Crown Princess’s attire for today was truly gorgeous. It wasn’t the complicated and luxurious palace dress for Crown Princesses, but a white ethereal dress which made her look like a fairy from out of this world.
She drew a cinnabar mark between her eyebrows, but instead of giving off a seductive feeling, it accentuated her beautiful countenance and tender skin, making her look like an unparalleled beauty.
As soon as she took her seat, it was like a painting made by a renowned painter.
The cla.s.sroom was silent, and no one dared to speak out for fear of disturbing her.
In the cla.s.sroom, there was a wall-mounted chessboard for teaching, and she personally set up a chess game, "This is the chess game founded by Master Meng Lao."
Master Meng Lao was the most famous chess master in the six states, and his chess game was known as one of the most difficult chess games in the six states.
Everyone could not help but feel a burst of emotion. She was really worthy of being the Crown Princess, as the first thing she taught was such a powerful chess game. It seemed that they had made a worthwhile trip today.
"Crown Princess, can you play Master Meng Lao"s chess game?" A bold young miss asked.
The Crown Princess smiled, but without waiting for her to open her mouth, the court lady beside her said, "The Crown Princess already fully grasped it when she was thirteen."
A sound of exclamation immediately sounded in the cla.s.sroom.
At the age of thirteen, she was already able to fully grasp Master Meng Lao"s chess game. What terrifying talent was this?
"Actually, this chess game wasn’t difficult to crack." The Crown Princess pointed to the chessboard and started her explanation.
After the first cla.s.s, everyone felt they had benefited a lot. In the future, no one would dare underestimate their chess skills. After all, they were the ones who could crack Master Meng Lao"s chess game.
The Crown Princess said in a warm voice, "I"m teaching you how to solve this chess game to show you that chess is not difficult and you can solve any game in this world if you put your mind to it. But at the same time, I also hope you can understand one thing. I started learning chess when I was two years old. To have genuine chess skills, one doesn’t have to be opportunistic, and one also can"t expect to have rapid progress. One needs to practice hard every day."
These words were tantamount to confessing that she wasn’t a genius. Everything about her was the result of hard work. Sometimes, admitting your own shortcomings wouldn’t elicit a supercilious look from people. On the contrary, it made her seem down-to-earth, which inadvertently brought her closer to the students.
"As long as I work hard, can I be as amazing as the Crown Princess?" Another young miss asked.
The Crown Princess smiled gently, "Everyone has their own excellence; your efforts will surely make you better."
Heavens, what kind of Crown Princess was this? What happened to putting on airs? Seriously, just where did the rumors that she occupied the bridge for herself and prevented people from pa.s.sing through come from? That was simply nonsense!
Clearly, it was her family who did it, and she was just implicated by her family!
The effect of this lecture was obvious. If people originally believed in the Crown Princess for only five or six points, now it had become eight or nine points.
"By the way." The Crown Princess looked outside the door and said softly, "The cla.s.sroom is full. It seems that some people can"t come in. In fact, Rui w.a.n.gfei also came here today to teach you. Her guqin skills are above mine. Those who want to learn guqin skills might as well listen to Rui w.a.n.gfei"s cla.s.s."
No, no, we just want to listen to your cla.s.s!
It wasn’t a day or two that Rui w.a.n.gfei and the Crown Princess didn’t get along. Rui w.a.n.gfei would get jealous of the Crown Princess every once in a while, but the Crown Princess had never disputed with her, and even now she was bringing in more students for her——
How kind!
Was there any reason for them not to like, admire and support the Crown Princess?
In the second cla.s.s, some young misses really went to Rui w.a.n.gfei"s cla.s.s.
Rui w.a.n.gfei thought it was his own guqin skills that attracted them, so she was filled with enthusiasm and worked hard in cla.s.s. As a result, when she asked after cla.s.s——
"It was the Crown Princess who sent us over."
Rui w.a.n.gfei’s expression suddenly turned black.
Rui w.a.n.gfei, with the guqin case in her arms, went to Gu Jiao"s place to find comfort.
Perhaps she was so absorbed in voicing her complaints that she left behind her guqin in Gu Jiao’s small courtyard when she left.
In the afternoon, An Junw.a.n.g came to the medical hall.
He was here to have his eyes reexamined.
Gu Jiao took him to the consultation room and examined him as usual. She was calm from beginning to end, as though that awkward incident between them that night never happened.
Gu Jiao had long been calm about it. She wouldn’t take this kind of thing to heart.
An Junw.a.n.g smiled bitterly. It seemed he was the only one who was still thinking about it.
"How do you feel?" Gu Jiao asked.
"Much better." An Junw.a.n.g said with a smile.
He wasn’t being polite, it was indeed much better than in the past. He didn"t feel much effect in the first three nights of consuming the medicine, but on the fourth night, he found that he could sense a glimmer of light.Raz P."s Thoughts
