Not a trial, but a discussion.
Jing Rong wasn't forcing her to learn some peerless martial arts. He was just worried that if one day he wasn't by her side, she would be able to learn a move or two. At that time, she would have a way to escape.
In order to convince her, he gave her an example. "It's not difficult. Back then, Duke Qin only learned martial arts in his later years. He was shorter than you, tougher than you, and much older than you. In the end, he became a martial arts instructor for the princes and was even rewarded by the late Emperor. Why can't you do it?"
"I'm a woman." She blurted out.
This reason was indeed irrefutable.
Jing Rong's lips trembled. He was slightly disappointed. He looked at the smooth bamboo stick that he had polished several times. It was full of his thoughts, but this woman didn't appreciate it.
How sad!
Ji Yunshu saw through his thoughts. She raised her eyebrows and took the bamboo stick. She lightly waved it in the air, making a rapid and loud swishing sound.
"This thing is not bad."
"Do you plan to learn martial arts?"
She shook her head. "No."
"Then, you said it's not bad?"
Huh?
She looked at him from the corner of her eyes. Her beautiful brows slightly furrowed. "I only said it's not bad. I didn't say I want to learn it. You should go find Qiao 'er and Zhuang' er and let them learn a move or two."
Jing Rong's expression stiffened.
Ji Yunshu happily played with the bamboo stick in her hand.
She had to admit that although Jing Rong's bamboo was not elegant, the workmanship was exquisite. It was a good way to pass time by waving the bamboo stick in her hand.
While she was waving it, Tang Si suddenly came in from outside.
"Ah Ji, what are you doing?" She curiously ran over.
Ji Yunshu said to her in a boastful tone, "Look, isn't this bamboo very exquisitely made?"
Tang Si looked at it and nodded. "Not bad."
"This is made by His Highness. It's specially made for practicing martial arts."
She even purposely raised her voice.
Hearing this, Tang Si looked at Jing Rong in astonishment. She immediately revealed a look of disdain and laughed loudly without concealing it.
She was almost holding her stomach!
"This … This damn thing is used to practice martial arts? Even a three-year-old wouldn't be fooled by it. "
A certain person's expression was extremely ugly!
Tang Si continued with a smile, "In our Houliao, three-year-olds hold either a knife or a whip. Who would use a bamboo as a weapon to practice martial arts?"
A long string of laughter rang out crisply in the courtyard.
A certain someone's expression was not only foul, but it was also extremely cold.
Ji Yunshu snickered inwardly.
She wasn't laughing at Jing Rong using bamboo as a weapon for her to practice with. She was laughing at how cute he was.
She was as cute as Wei Yi!
Suddenly —
The laughter stopped abruptly!
As fast as he could, he snatched the bamboo stick from Ji Yunshu's hand and placed it on Tang Si's neck with a speed that was so fast that it was impossible to see his movements.
In that instant, Tang Si was stunned.
She immediately reacted and reached for her waist. Just as she was about to pull out the whip, she was a step too late.
The long and thin bamboo stick hit the back of her hand with a "pa" sound.
Although the strength was not great!
But it still made her cry out in pain.
He had no choice but to loosen the whip.
"You …" She was infuriated.
Jing Rong smirked, "Little girl, listen carefully. This Prince is going to teach you a lesson today. Not only sharp objects are suitable to be used as weapons, even an inconspicuous piece of mud can kill people. So, you must not underestimate this small bamboo stick. If you make it unhappy, it can take your life at any time."
This lesson was too expensive.
It was a valuable lesson that Tang Si gained from being humiliated.
It was not worth it!
She gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with unwillingness. She raised her chin and said fiercely, "If you have the ability, let me pull out the whip and we can compete again."
"I don't have the time for that."
Jing Rong coldly said and flicked the bamboo stick in his hand away.
Tang Si immediately took the opportunity to pull out the whip.
She raised the whip high, but the bamboo stick in Jing Rong's hand ruthlessly hit her shoulder again, forcing her to lower her raised arm.
"You … You bully me." Tang Si pointed at him.
"This Prince is teaching you a lesson."
Bah!
Only you would be able to come up with such a reason!
Tang Si covered her injured hand and immediately shrunk to Ji Yunshu's side. She complained, "Ah Ji, look at him. He's clearly bullying me. Help me teach him a lesson."
Bite him to death!
Beat him to death!
"Me?" Ji Yunshu pointed a finger at herself. "I can't beat him."
What if he threw her on the bed in a fit of anger? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?
She couldn't!
There was nothing wrong with admitting defeat when necessary.
Tang Si's face was flushed red. Her chest felt like it was about to burst out at any time.
Ji Yunshu smiled and comforted her, "Don't be angry. You also made fun of him, so you two are even now."
How could this be?
Tang Si snorted. She couldn't beat that guy, so what else could she do?
She could only swallow her anger.
He sat down and began to rub the back of his hand and arm that were hurting from the beating.
"Oh right, weren't you by Mo Ruo's side? Why are you here? "Ji Yunshu asked.
"Aiya!" Tang Si sprang to her feet, her eyes widening as she slapped her forehead. "I almost forgot what I came here for. Mo Ruo said that the person has woken up and asked me to come over to inform you."
"He's awake?"
"Hmm, he can even speak. As soon as he woke up, he kept calling for water, water, water, as if he had never drunk water in his previous life. You guys didn't see his eyes, they were black and swarthy. They looked really scary, and …"
She seemed to want to continue, but Jing Rong and Ji Yunshu had already walked past her and were heading towards Mo Ruo's courtyard.
"Hey, hey, hey! Wait for me!"
She shouted behind them and hurriedly followed them. What happened just now had been thrown to the back of her mind in the blink of an eye.
Although a woman like her was born in Houliao and had a wilder temperament than the average person, she was a straightforward person. She didn't play tricks or play tricks on others. If it wasn't for the fact that she had a glib tongue and was a little impulsive, a woman like her would definitely be rare in this world!
In Mo Ruo's courtyard.
He had just left the side of the bed and was wiping his hands with a handkerchief.
When the two of them rushed over, they saw Mo Ruo wiping his bloody hands, as if he had just performed a major operation. His forehead was beaded with sweat, and the bed behind him was stained with blood. The originally light gray bedding was also stained with blood, making it look particularly glaring.
It was a little scary!
The man in black lying on the bed had a pale complexion. His eyes were fixed on the curtains above his head.
