Chapter 3 Entering Hongru Academy
  Mrs. Li narrowed her eyes and walked towards Li Youwei step by step.

"Damn girl, no wonder you've grown taller and fatter, and your skin has gotten better. It turns out you did something shameful, so why don't you kneel down quickly."

Filial piety is the most important thing in the Great Zhou Dynasty. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, those who do not respect their parents will be sentenced.

Li Youwei knelt in front of Mrs. Li, but her posture was upright and her face was neither humble nor arrogant.

This made Mrs. Li even more angry. She felt that her majesty had been challenged.

"Press that cheap maid Bitao up. If you dare to trick the young lady into not learning well, I must make her remember it today."

Following Li Wang's furious voice, Bi Tao was brought up by the two women.

No wonder Bitao didn't come to report the news in time. It turned out that she was arrested.

"Miss, I'm sorry, I'm a slave and useless."

Bitao had already been slapped in the mouth, her entire face was swollen, and there were fresh blood stains hanging from the corners of her mouth.

"Bitao, I'm fine, and I won't let anything happen to you."

"Hmph, the love between master and servant is really strong. Give me a hard beating."

"Mom, the servants in the mansion are getting more and more unruly. You have to show your authority this time."

Li Mingzhu fanned the flames on the sidelines.

[The whip has barbs on it, and I applied it with poison. Bitao is dead this time. Get rid of this cheap servant, and Li Youwei will be left to deal with. 】

Hearing Li Mingzhu's thoughts, Li Youwei didn't care much and hurriedly blocked Bitao behind him.

She picked Bitao off the street. Her parents agreed to keep her when they saw that they only needed a bowl of rice.

Although they had only been together for a few months, she knew that Bitao was loyal to her and she must keep her.

"Mom, you can't hit people casually. What's wrong with Bitao?"

Li Youwei's resolute phoenix eyes shot out a sharp look, making Mrs. Li feel a little guilty.

"This is really outrageous. Since you want to protect this bitch, you should take the beating for her."

"Stop." A majestic and gentle voice came from the door.

Mrs. Li's hand that grabbed the whip shook slightly, but she still wanted to show off her momentum.

"My sister is teaching her daughter, it's better for her not to interfere."

"Ms. Li Wang, the charcoal in You Wei's room was given by my eldest princess.

Little does the eldest princess know that the Li family is so poor that even the eldest daughter cannot afford charcoal. "

The eldest princess was not angry but powerful, and Li Mingzhu hid behind Wang Li with a guilty conscience.

The clothes she was wearing were enough to last Li Youwei for two winters.

Mrs. Li was also a little worried about her face, so she explained hesitantly.

"It's not that I won't use charcoal for her, it's just a little later.

She has rough skin and thick flesh, as good as these days. Didn't she survive the winter in the countryside when there was no charcoal fire? "

Li Youwei couldn't stop feeling cold all over. It turned out that her mother knew how miserable she was in the countryside, but she never pityed her.

After being brought to the capital, she was treated as an outcast because she did not fit the image of a noble girl in her mind.

The eldest princess wrapped Li Youwei's small hand in her big hand and tightened it slightly to give her strength.

"I have heard that the best silver charcoal will be used in Yaozu's room at the end of September."

"How do you know? You haven't entered the house yet."

Mrs. Li regretted it after asking. As the eldest princess of the dynasty, she was naturally well-informed. It was not that easy to fool her.

Li Mingzhu was a little impatient. She was useless because she didn't study well. In front of the eldest princess, her mother was completely crushed.

Mrs. Li was also very aggrieved. She originally planned to use this incident today to make her eldest daughter completely surrender to her, but she didn't expect that stealing the chicken will end up losing the rice.

She grabbed the handkerchief and twisted it for a long time before giving a dry explanation.

"How can a girl like her compare to a man like Yaozu? Besides, Yaozu's hands are used for writing policies. They must not get even a little bit cold."

"You are also a woman and Youwei's mother. How can you say such heartless words?"

The eldest princess questioned in a more serious voice.

Just as Li Wang was about to explain the truth about how Li Yaozu could carry on the Li family lineage, he was interrupted by Li Dengyuan, who had just come down from the court. "What's going on here?"

Mrs. Li quickly focused her gaze, but Li Dengyuan only had eyes for the eldest princess.

The eldest princess nodded towards Li Dengyuan.

"Master Li, since there is no extra money in the house to buy charcoal for You Wei, then she can live with my eldest princess."

After Li Dengyuan heard what the eldest princess said, he was both happy and ashamed.

Fortunately, the eldest princess has never been alone with him since she married into the house, let alone let him touch her.

Now that she is willing to get close to his eldest daughter, it will create an opportunity for them to go further.

What was embarrassing and annoying was that the woman he loved saw him in embarrassment, but it was all the fault of that bitch Wang Zhaodi, and he had to punish her severely this time.

Li Youwei listened to Li Dengyuan's thoughts and held the eldest princess's hand tightly.

Such a good eldest princess should not be contaminated by a sanctimonious man like her father.

The eldest princess thought that Li Youwei was afraid, so she raised her other hand and stroked the top of her furry hair, telling her not to worry.

"Shanshan, you are the head matron of the Li family, and everything depends on you."

Li Dengyuan smiled in a flattering and greasy manner.

Shanshan is the nickname of the eldest princess. In order to appear familiar, Li Dengyuan has been calling her that shamelessly.

Seeing Li Dengyuan's eyes full of admiration, the eldest princess was not moved at all.

"it is good."

The eldest princess left with Li Youwei, and the guards and maids quickly followed.

When the eldest princess disappeared, Li Dengyuan turned his head and gave Wang Li a slap in the face.

"Since the family is so short of money, I don't want to donate the charcoal in your room. Now go to the ancestral hall and kneel for twenty-four hours."

"Master, you can't be so heartless. I have been with you for more than ten years, and I have worked hard without any merit. You can't punish me like this for a second-married girl."

"Shut up, if it weren't for the fact that you are my wife, you would have been kicked out long ago."

Li Dengyuan was a public official, so when he was supervising the words and deeds of other ministers and their family affairs, he naturally could not let others catch him.

So he would not divorce Mrs. Li, he would just scare her.

But Mrs. Li didn't understand. She was frightened and didn't dare to act like a monster at will.

In the following days, Li Youwei lived a very comfortable life.

The eldest princess's collection of books is so large that it takes up the entire study room.

Li Youwei spent the whole day soaking in books, feeling that time passed too fast and there was not enough time at all.

However, studying also requires talent, and the high fever I had when I was seven years old still had some influence.

Even though she tried hard enough, she still couldn't fully comprehend the contents of the book.

"You Wei, do you like practicing martial arts?
  In the Zhou Dynasty, women could not only take the first prize in literary studies, but also take the first prize in martial arts. "

The eldest princess took the history book from Li Youwei's hand and asked with a smile.

Li Youwei raised his hand and pressed it on his chest, which was jumping with excitement.

"Mother, may I?"

The eldest princess touched her head lovingly.

"Xiao Wei has a tenacity that no one else has. As long as he wants to do something, he can definitely do it."

"Thank you, mother. I want to go to the battlefield to protect my family and my country."

"Okay, mother will help you arrange it."

Three days later, Li Youwei entered Hongru Academy, the highest academic institution in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Those who can appear here will be the pillars of the Great Zhou Kingdom in the future.

Even if you have a relationship with the eldest princess, you still have to pass the test of the academy.

As soon as she entered the academy, she was surrounded and ridiculed by everyone.
