Chapter 115 Banquet (2)

Tang Qini was originally quite interested in fruit wine, but when she heard Wen Yuxia say that she brewed the fruit wine, she immediately became unhappy. "A peasant girl is just a peasant girl. Just because she can brew fruit wine, she thinks she's something special. Haha!"

Lu Yanxi, who was standing nearby, quickly stopped her, saying, "Sister Tang, Princess Muhua is my brother's savior. How could you say such a thing about her?"

Before Wen Yuxia even arrived in the capital, Lu Mubai sent back ten highly skilled guards from Pingyuan Pass. Lu Yanxi, as her cousin, knew that her cousin Lu Mubai valued Wen Yuxia.

She didn't want to be disliked by Wen Yuxia because of Tang Qini, so she turned to face Wen Yuxia, squatted down and bowed: "On behalf of the Lu family, Lu Yanxi thanks the princess for saving my elder brother's life!"

Tang Qini said coldly, "A life-saving grace? Brother Mu Bai sent ten guards to the Princess's mansion. Isn't that enough to repay the life-saving grace? Could it be that the Princess wants to take advantage of this favor?"

Several years ago, if it weren't for the old Duke of Zhenguo intervening, Lu Mubai's engagement with her would have been dissolved.

Lu Mubai broke off the engagement because he had no way to repay the life-saving grace except by offering himself to her. Therefore, Tang Qini was very sensitive to the words "life-saving grace".

Wen Yuxia was unaware of the marriage agreement between the Lu and Tang families, nor was she aware that Lu Mubai wanted to break off the engagement. Of course, she also didn't know why Tang Qini was targeting her.

"Miss Tang, whether I seek repayment for kindness or not, what does it have to do with you?" Wen Yuxia's expression changed from gentle to cold and hard, her voice carrying a hint of chill.

Tang Qini's tears welled up instantly, and she choked out, "How can it not be related? I'm Brother Mu Bai's fiancée. Because of you, Brother Mu Bai wants to break off the engagement with me..."

Princess Wanyu stepped forward: "Tang Qini, who wants to annul your engagement? Go find them and cause trouble. Don't act crazy here, or I'll recognize you, but my fists won't."

When it comes to being a scoundrel, none of the noble ladies in the capital dare to challenge her. Anyone who wants to bully Wen Yuxia would have to ask for her permission first. Princess Wanyu defiantly raised her fist.

Tang Qini didn't dare to confront Princess Wanyu directly. She said, feeling wronged, "You're bullying me."

Suddenly, Song Ying, who had been drinking heartily nearby, stood up, pointed at Wan Yu, and shouted, "What kind of skill is it to bully a weak woman like Tang Qini? You willful princess, do you dare to fight me?"

Song Ying was the daughter of General Song. Like any daughter of a military family, she trained with her father and brothers from a young age and became proficient in all eighteen martial arts.

As she drank and became engrossed in her drink, she suddenly heard Tang Qini crying. Thinking of her beloved Lu Mubai, Song Ying felt a surge of protectiveness towards Tang Qini.

Wanyu was no match for Song Ying and had no confidence in facing her. She said somewhat guiltily, "Who bullied her? Who wanted to fight you? All you know is fighting and killing. If you're so capable, write a few poems for us to hear!"

Song Ying strode towards Wan Yu: "How dare you mock me as a brute, you spoiled princess, you've got some nerve!"

Wan Yu took a few steps back and said weakly, "This is Princess Mu Hua's residence. You, you mustn't do anything rash."

"Princess Mu Hua, you don't mind if Wan Yu and I engage in a martial arts duel to add to the fun, do you?" Song Ying's aunt was the Emperor's favored concubine, and with the concubine's backing, she didn't care about anyone else.

Wen Yuxia saw fear in Wanyu's eyes and said with a faint smile, "Using martial arts to add to the fun is a good suggestion. Sister Wanyu is not feeling well, so this princess will fight Miss Song in her place."

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. Was Princess Mu Hua stupid? Challenging Song Ying, the daughter of a military family?

Lu Yanxi was startled. Song Ying was her best friend and had liked Lu Mubai since childhood. Since Song Ying had injured Wen Yuxia, Lu Mubai would definitely despise her.

"Yingying, no!" Lu Yanxi rushed forward and grabbed Song Ying.

Song Ying smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll go easy on Princess Muhua." She was protecting Tang Qini because of Lu Mubai; how could she possibly be ruthless towards Lu Mubai's savior?

Wen Yuxia calmly gestured for everyone to move to the training ground. The noble ladies who arrived were once again astonished; apart from the plum blossom stakes, they didn't recognize any of the other training grounds.

Wen Yuxia whispered to Wan Yu and the others that rope ladders, cross-country hurdles, balance beams, and rings... these were all for physical training.

Song Ying strode into the training ground, took a long spear from the weapon rack beside him, and of all the eighteen martial arts, the spear was the weapon Song Ying wielded with the most impressive skill.

Wen Yuxia casually picked up a long stick, stood opposite Song Ying, and politely extended her right hand, inviting Song Ying to make the first move.

Song Ying swiftly performed three moves on the spot, then beckoned to Wen Yuxia with her finger, indicating that she had already made her move. Wen Yuxia swung her long staff directly at Song Ying's head.

Song Ying did not retreat, but instead held her spear horizontally, intending to withstand the attack head-on. Underestimating her opponent sealed Song Ying's fate. Wen Yuxia, without using her internal energy, used only her superhuman strength to pin Song Ying to the ground.

It was too fast. Everyone only saw Song Ying, who was raising his spear to catch the attack of the long staff one second, and the next second he was lying on the ground in a sorry state.

"What's going on?" Tang Qini muttered to herself.

Lu Yanxi's inner thoughts are so powerful; no wonder she's the woman her older brother has his eye on.

Wanyu silently cried out in her heart, wanting to become Wen Yuxia's disciple. Ya Yu, Xin Yi, and Xuan Miao exchanged glances, seemingly understanding why the Emperor valued Wen Yuxia so highly.

Song Ying's face was deathly pale. She couldn't even withstand one move from Wen Yuxia. She had lost, she had lost, lost miserably. With great difficulty, she opened her mouth and said, "Princess, you have won."

Wen Yuxia reached out and helped Song Ying up, saying with a smile, "Miss Song, I'm so sorry, this princess is naturally strong, I forgot to hold back just now."

Song Ying awkwardly twitched her lips. "Strength can overcome technique," she thought. "Why didn't you say you were strong earlier? If I had known you were strong, how could I have possibly fought you?"

Princess Ya Yu said softly, "We've finished the drinking and the martial arts competition, let's play a five-character word chain game!" Word chain games are fun and stress-free, a great way to liven up the atmosphere. Ya Yu suggested it to avoid any awkward silences.

"Yes, yes!" everyone chimed in.

Ya Yu stepped forward and said, "One, two, three, four, five,"

"A 50/50 split of the profits," someone chimed in.

"Where does the profit come from?"

"Coming and going"
