Arriving at Qin Yun's dormitory door, Ouyang Siqing frowned slightly.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with Young Master Qin, he was just a little frivolous.
After opening her heart, Ouyang Siqing knocked on Qin Yun's door!
After waiting for a while, the door remained tightly shut.
Ouyang Siqing thought, is Young Master Qin out, or is he sleeping!
Preparing to knock again,
She was suddenly startled by Qin Yun who appeared behind her. "Young Master Ouyang? You are looking for me?"
Ouyang Siqing quickly turned her head and patted her little heart. "Where did you pop out from, Young Master Qin! You scared me to death!"
"Just wandering around! Did I startle you just now? I'm truly sorry!"
Looking down,
Seeing Qin Yun holding something in his arms, covered by a black veil, Ouyang Siqing didn't know what it was.
"What are you holding, Young Master Qin? Do you need help?"
"No need!" Qin Yun walked past Ouyang Siqing into the house and then invited her in to sit. "What is it that Young Master Ouyang is looking for me for? Would you like to come in and sit for a while!"
"Grandfather asked me to check on you! Since Young Master Qin is fine, I'll be going!"
Qin Yun smiled, knowing that Master Ouyang was anxious.
He didn't expect this old man to be so impatient!
"Please trouble Young Master Ouyang to inform Master for me that this student will visit him shortly!"
"Alright, I will deliver the message!"
Seeing Ouyang Siqing leave without looking back, Qin Yun frowned slightly. Was she that scary?
Looking at the scorching sun outside the window, Qin Yun removed the black veil from the Seven-Colored Peony.
After a night, the Yan Mo had been absorbed almost completely, and now it only needed to absorb a little sunlight.
She placed the Seven-Colored Peony in a semi-shaded, semi-sunny spot, as this would be most helpful for its recovery.
After finishing, Qin Yun left the dormitory!
Just in time to catch the students leaving class.
The students walking by looked at Qin Yun as she passed, and began to discuss.
"Look, isn't that the ugly monster Qin Yun? How dare she still have the face to come to the academy?"
"Isn't that right? Not only did she offend Master Ouyang, but she also angered Teacher Nangong who was teaching!"
"I really don't know what her father was thinking, sending her to Lanshan Academy again. Does he really think this imperial academy is his family's property? Come and go as he pleases!"
Listening to the gossip around her, Qin Yun took a deep breath.
If others don't offend me, I won't offend them; if they offend me, I'll tolerate it; if they still offend me, I'll still tolerate it!
If they trouble me again, and I can no longer tolerate it, there's no need to tolerate it any further!
"Gossiping behind people's backs is not the demeanor of a gentleman, but the act of a villain!"
"Who are you calling a villain?" a short and stout man said displeasily.
This person was Wei Maoran, the son of Wei Chenggong, a court official of the third rank.
"Whoever answers is the one!" Qin Yun shrugged.
Lanshan Academy is indeed an imperial academy. All those who can enter this academy are the legitimate sons of court ministers. Concubines' sons simply cannot get in.
Precisely because of this, the people in Lanshan Academy are all arrogant!
To put it bluntly!
Not a single one of them is easy to deal with.
"I think you're looking for death!" Wei Maoran clenched his fist and took a step forward, but was pulled back by his companion.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a temper, have you considered the consequences of your impulsiveness?" Qin Yun stood with her back straight, continuing to provoke the short and stout Wei Maoran.
"You two let go of me. If I don't teach this ugly monster a good lesson, I'm not Wei Maoran."
"Short and stout, with your build, you dare to call me ugly?" Qin Yun was equally unforgiving with her words, directly retorting to Wei Maoran.
Being sharp-tongued was her specialty.
"Who are you calling short and stout? Say it again if you dare?" Wei Maoran was furious. Because of his short and stout figure, many people privately mocked him, but no one dared to mock him so openly like Qin Yun.
"Oh my, this is the first time I've met someone with such a request. You want me to call you short and stout? Everyone heard it! It was Wei Maoran who asked me to call him short and stout!"
Qin Yun smiled. "Then I'll fulfill your wish. Short and stout, short and stout, short and stout..." Qin Yun called out three times in succession.
The people around smirked, and for a moment, Wei Maoran became the butt of the joke.
"Ugly monster, I'm going to kill you!" Wei Maoran roared with all his might. Because he usually followed the Second Prince Xie Jing'an, no one dared to provoke him.
Everyone at Lanshan Academy knew about the Second Prince Xie Jing'an.
When Xie Jing'an was very young, his parents passed away.
He was raised in the imperial harem, adopted by Consort Li.
Because everyone pitied Xie Jing'an's background, the people in the harem collectively doted on him.
This is how Xie Jing'an grew up to be a little tyrant.
He feared no one, and if anything happened, there were always people to back him up.
Xie Jing'an was a member of the royal family, and the current Emperor was his imperial uncle. He also had several uncle-level princes, any one of whom could be his protector.
"You want to kill me? I'm really scared! Short and stout, with such arrogance, who gave you the courage?"
"Ugly monster, you wait for me, how dare you provoke me! I'm going to find the Second Prince right now!" Wei Maoran said with a smug expression, his mouth turned up high.
"So you're going to complain! Short and stout, aren't you still a wet-behind-the-ears little fatty?"
"Very good, ugly monster, don't leave. I'll find the Second Prince to deal with you right away!" Wei Maoran pushed through the crowd, preparing to find the Second Prince Xie Jing'an, but unexpectedly, Xie Jing'an was already heading in his direction.
Wei Maoran immediately put on a smiling face and flattered him, "Your Highness, you've finally arrived! That ugly monster was slandering you in front of everyone, how arrogant!"
Xie Jing'an was slightly stunned. "Which ugly monster?"
"It's that useless Qin Yun! She was kicked out of our academy not long ago, and now she's back!"
"Qin Yun?" Xie Jing'an began to recall. There seemed to be such a person in his memory, but he hadn't interacted with her much.
"She's slandering this prince?" Xie Jing'an frowned. "Who gave her the nerve?"
"Isn't that right? She completely disregards us. It's one thing to speak ill of me, but how could she speak ill of Your Highness?" Wei Maoran said with a twisted face, exaggerating. "If anyone dares to speak ill of His Highness, I, Wei Maoran, will be the first to object! And just now, when that ugly monster Qin Yun spoke ill of you, I immediately stopped her, but who knew? She became even worse and insulted people!"
"How did she speak ill of this prince?"
Wei Maoran said slyly, "She said Your Highness is arrogant and conceited, and a brute without anyone to discipline him!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Jing'an clenched his fists, veins bulging on his forehead. "Did Qin Yun really say that?"
"Yes!" Wei Maoran nodded.
The moment he lowered his head, Wei Maoran's eyes were full of calculation.
Qin Yun! Even if you don't die this time, you'll lose a layer of skin.
This is the price of offending me!
You're still too young to fight with me!
