Wang Meng, unwilling to be outshone, also joined the fray on Black Wind. He first competed in a speed race with the fine steeds of the tutors, won by half a body length, tested his skills, and shot through several targets.
His strength was too great, causing massive destruction.
Every time he shot through a target, it would leave a hole the size of a cups mouth, rendering the target unusable.
The two masters were at a loss between laughter and tears, and prohibited him from shooting at the targets, telling him to watch the competition from the sidelines.
Wang Yehan, Li Moyun, and others, were annoyed that their proud steeds were defeated by an inferior horse from the countryside. They were unsatisfied, clamoring for another challenge against Black Wind.
Wang Meng was eager to dampen their spirits but with the penetrating gaze of the two masters upon him, he could only laugh awkwardly and give up.
The fascinating archery class shone a spotlight on the two Misses from the Su Clan.
Su Ziqin was fortunate to have caught the eye of Master Xu. He allowed her to assist in teaching, attending the class, and practicing horse archery with the students.
At noon, during lunch in the Little Princes residence, Stellar Pavilion, Su Ziqin listened to her younger sister retelling the mornings events with the excitement of a child, hugging her little sister and jumping with joy.
Su Qingluo was sincerely happy for her sister.
Being sisters for eight years, she understood Su Ziqins persistence, and how much effort she put forth to achieve her goals.
Miss Su, someone has sent you flowers.
As the two sisters were chatting and laughing, a maiden from Stellar Pavilion walked into the dining room carrying a bouquet of winter jasmine flowers, placing them respectfully in front of Su Ziqin.
Wow! Sister, you are so charming!
Su Qingluos eyes lit up at the sight of the flowers. Giggling, she teased, Its only been a day and you already have suitors.
What nonsense are you talking about? What suitor?
Su Ziqin blushed, poked her forehead hard, and scolded gently, You are young, but you know quite a lot. Wait until we get home. I will tell Mother to reprimand you.
Ouch, that hurts!
Su Qingluo made a face, covering her forehead and muttered under her breath, I was telling the truth, why the need for such force.
You dare to talk back?
Su Ziqin frowned, extending her slender finger, threatening to poke her again.
Alright, alright, I wont say any more.
Su Qingluo quickly leaned back, avoiding her finger.
In future, do not bring things like this in front of me. Just throw them away.
Su Ziqin, seeing her submissive, turned back to glare coldly at the maid who brought the flowers, and spoke in a cold, mocking tone.
Is this what they call royal etiquette? Any Tom, Dick, or Harry can bribe someone in the courtyard to send flowers to a guest. Miss Su, I beg your pardon, it wont happen again. The maid turned white with fear, apologizing profusely.
Forget it, considering its your first offense, I will let it go.
Su Ziqin sat upright, neither overbearing nor servile, And remember, although my sister and I come from a humble background, we have good manners not inferior to any noble girls, and will not tolerate disrespect.
Someone thinks a bouquet of flowers can tarnish my reputation, leading to misunderstandings about my private life. What wishful thinking! I lead an honorable life and would not bear any disparagement.
I am sorry, my lady. I will remove the flowers right away.
The maid, pale-faced, awkwardly picked up the flowers and hurried out. Sister Yu, did you understand what I just said?
Seeing the maid had left, Su Ziqin turned back to drill her younger sister seriously.
A girls reputation is not to be tarnished at will. You are eight years old now and should be more sensible. Some things, you mustnt say casually. Oh, Qingluo understands, Sister, you are right.
Su Qingluo listened to the admonishment with a grimace and muttered:
Rules and teachings are really a pain.
A good young lady, with such a stern face, almost comparable to the matrons in the palace..
