The unexpected question was like a sharp needle piercing Xie Mingxi's sore spot that no one could see.
Who in this world truly loves her and cherishes her?
No, never!
Her biological father only sees glory and wealth, her biological mother only sees her son, and her brother is stupid and cold. Her husband in her previous life was cruel and ruthless, and she only had Lu Chi in her heart.
Her son had some true feelings for her. It was a pity that he died too early.
Her grandson respected and relied on her very much because she behaved without any selfish intentions. If she had the intention to gain power in the court, how could Emperor Jianping tolerate her?
No one really loves her, so she must cherish herself even more and not let herself be wronged in the slightest!
Xie Mingxi's expression did not change and she asked calmly: "Is there anyone in this world who truly loves and cherishes His Highness?"
The Sixth Princess fell silent, and after a long while she replied in a low voice: "My mother-in-law treats me sincerely. However, her thoughts are too heavy for me. Every time I see her, I feel depressed and heavy, and I can't breathe smoothly."
Excessive love and care has actually become a problem.
Xie Mingxi burst into laughter and joked half-jokingly: "Your Highness is in the midst of blessings and does not know the blessings. Your Highness the Sixth Prince died young, and Concubine Mei has only Your Highness. Naturally, her heart is devoted to Your Highness."
"If His Highness the Seventh Prince is still here, Concubine Mei will definitely think more highly of him. Even if His Highness the Princess wants to have such troubles, it is impossible."
Sixth Princess: "..."
This topic is too dangerous. Let’s stop here!
The sixth princess decisively decided to change the subject: "Mingxi, you seem to like Lin Weiwei very much."
Speaking of this, it is another sad topic.
Xie Mingxi should obviously like herself the most.
But now that Lin Weiwei and I go out and eat together, we just have to sleep together...
The sixth princess's sad tone, as if her beloved thing had been taken away, amused Xie Mingxi. Xie Mingxi casually smiled and coaxed: "I like your highness the princess better."
Sweet words without any seriousness.
The sixth princess, who was so coaxed, was finally satisfied.
…
Xie Mingxi's sweet and sweet voice sounded lightly: "Your Highness, the princess, has such a high talent in martial arts that I really admire. And she is making rapid progress, making rapid progress. Could it be that Your Highness has practiced martial arts hard?"
The Sixth Princess responded smoothly and said yes.
Xie Mingxi took a deep look and said, "Oh? I wonder who your Highness learned martial arts from in the palace? Are there any maids with such powerful skills in the palace?"
Sixth Princess: "..."
It is not difficult to tell a lie. What is difficult is telling more lies in order to make people believe the lie.
This Xie Mingxi is really extremely perceptive. When talking to her, you can't be distracted at all. She comes to pry out a sentence without warning. If you hadn't been quick to react, I might have exposed the secret long ago.
The Sixth Princess naturally has a way to deal with it, just shut up and keep silent.
Anyway, the Sixth Princess doesn’t like to talk!
Sure enough, Xie Mingxi was very measured. The sixth princess did not open her mouth and stopped asking. Instead, she smiled and said: "Her Royal Highness, the three subjects of ritual and music are weak, but she is also very good at archery and imperialism. Such a deviation is unique."
Isn't it?
It was common to fall asleep during the Four Books and Five Classics class. The drumming gradually gained a rhythm in the music class, but it was far from pleasant. There was not much progress in the etiquette class either.
As for arithmetic and archery, they are quite similar to those of a master. Xie Mingxi, who is good at arithmetic, has to be defeated. Yin Xiaoxiao, who is good at riding and archery, is also far behind.
Another digging hole to deliver the proposition.
The sixth princess continued to remain silent.
Xie Mingxi chuckled softly and said: "I'm not good at riding and shooting. I go back to my hometown and practice hard every day, but unfortunately I still can't compare to Her Royal Highness."
Hearing this, the Sixth Princess finally couldn't help but open her mouth: "Your riding and shooting skills are second only to Yin Xiaoxiao, which is pretty good."
In the archery class, the Sixth Princess came out on top, followed closely by Yin Xiaoxiao. Xie Mingxi ranked third without a doubt. Among all the delicate girls, she was already the best. With four books on ritual and music, she far surpassed everyone else.
He is simply the best among the best students, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
Xie Mingxi said calmly: "If it's not the first place, it wouldn't be considered very good."
Sixth Princess: "..."
The pain of being mercilessly beaten and crushed by a top student is really difficult to express in words.
The Sixth Princess glanced at Xie Mingxi with a complex expression: "You are smart, sharp, and talented. Masters are vying to praise you, and no one dislikes you. Even Master Dong now praises your poems and books like no one else."
"What will it take to make you satisfied?"
Xie Mingxi replied sincerely: "It's enough to be number one in every subject."
The sixth princess turned over expressionlessly and faced the wall in depression.
…
Looking at the slender back of the Sixth Princess, Xie Mingxi silently curled her mouth, a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.
For some unknown reason, there were many subtle differences between the Sixth Princess in front of her and the friend in her memory.
No matter how smart the Sixth Princess pretends to be, she can't hide it from her.
In her previous life, she wore a hypocritical mask of gentleness and kindness, and she wore it for decades. No one noticed her true face, even the shrewd and wise Emperor Jianping was kept in the dark.
The Sixth Princess's acting skills are indeed superb, but when it comes to pretending to be in front of her, she's still a little bit behind.
When she was young in her previous life, she always regarded the Sixth Princess as a good friend. Now that she thinks about it, she actually never really saw the Sixth Princess clearly at all!
Therefore, the current Sixth Princess has many deviations from the one in memory...
She was not in a hurry to unmask the Sixth Princess.
It's not interesting to see the sixth princess putting on airs all day long.
Xie Mingxi's sullenness disappeared and she closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.
…
After the lunch break, the girls gathered together as usual and went for a run at the martial arts training ground.
As soon as he entered the martial arts training ground, he saw another group of girls coming.
These girls were all around twelve or thirteen years old, with reluctant faces, uneven formations, and inconsistent steps.
"They are the seniors from Dingxiang Academy." Yin Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and said, "Strange, why are they here today?"
Dingxiang Academy is only one level higher than Haitang Academy. The archery courses are also taught by Master Lian.
Yan Zhenzhen rolled her eyes and said with a gloating smile: "In my opinion, this must be Mr. Lian's idea."
"We have to run every morning and afternoon, why don't they run?" Sheng Jinyue said flatly: "It's not just Dingxiang Academy, all students in the school should come to run."
This is a typical example of harming others without benefiting oneself!
However, Sheng Jinyue's words were echoed by everyone.
"Yes, yes! Today we propose to Mr. Lian that we run together!"
"That's right! If you want to exercise, you should also exercise together! You can't just toss... No, you can't just favor us!"
The girls spoke plausibly, and Xie Mingxi was very amused. She slowly opened her mouth and said: "Since you have this proposal, let's discuss it with Mr. Lian!"
All the girls looked over and said in unison: "You are the dormitory leader, so of course it is up to you to speak." (To be continued)
