The Story of Dusk

Upon hearing that words, the three noble ladies gulped hard. They were too afraid to see the upcoming scene that would unfold.

Zhao Tianqi was well known for her short temper and wickedness. If it wasn't for her influence family backed her up, she wouldn't have been able to sit in the crown princess position.

Ever since she was in this position, she was becoming more and more overbearing.

Thus, seeing how calm Qianru insulted her, the three of them wondered how Zhao Tianqi accepted it.

"Forgive me for my honest words." Qianru slap her own mouth softly, it was clear to see that she was just faking her surprised. "I didn't mean to say it so boorish like that. It is not right to compare Princess Zhao to the servants."

If before she pointed the comparing part vaguely, now with the way she said, she gave them a clear comparison. It wasn't an apology, but another insult.

Zhao Tianqi gritted her teeth and pulled her hands from Qianru's clutched. Anger boiled in her veins, made her expression was unsightly.

However, in the next two second she gained her composure again and smiled harmlessly toward Qianru.

"Those servants are just lowly character that could be scare easily. How Princess Xiao can compare me with them?" Zhao Tianqi tried to make her voice as normal as she could, but a tinge of anger didn't go unnoticed. "Moreover, Prince Xiao Jun's history is a heavy topic. They do know nothing about that."

"Understand, but…" Qianru halted for a moment to let her interruption sank in. "You are all the same like those servants for being ignorance, because you do know nothing about this."

"Qianru, don't be so outrageous." Zhao Tianqi finally lost it. "You are only a guest in my country, I can do whatever I want with your life here." She said her warning no louder enough than a whisper, hence it was only the two of them that could hear it.

Leaned over, Qianru whispered back at her. "Do you forget about the last Kingdom that had harmed the royal blood of Xiao family?" She referred to the downfall of Xinghe Kingdom. "Their royal family had vanished."

Qianru wasn't proud of it, but she needed to say it, so she could give the arrogance princess a big picture of the consequences for whatever ploy and plot that was forming in her mind.

This was her warning.

"My country is not as weak as Xinghe!" Zhao Tianqi shouted and stood up, so she was towering Qianru now.

"I will never say that. Don't misunderstand me." Qianru still with her calm demeanor while staring back at Zhao Tianqi.

Looking how situation suddenly turned into a battlefield, someone clear her throat to reduce the tense when she spoke timidly. "The weather today is so warm, why don't we find another activity outside?" Ji Yunshu suggested.

"Oh, right…" Lin Yiren tried to join the suggestion. "But, what we will do?"


"Recently my father has been teaching me archery, why don't I show some skill to you?" Meng Yi Ran chimed in.

"Great." Li Yunshu exclaimed cheerfully. "How about it Tianqi, Princess Xiao?"
