Chapter 223 Begging the Yue family to be severely punished

After leaving the rockery, Shen Hua went back to the wing to rest.

She slept for two hours. When she woke up, she saw Cui Rong holding the newly acquired shuttlecock in his hand, deliberately showing off.

"Guess how many kicks I can kick?"

Shen Hua didn't bother to step on it. She couldn't tell what Cui Rongcun was thinking: "I don't want to guess anymore. Can I just praise him?"

"It's really amazing. Your legs are clearly made for kicking shuttlecocks. They're just a little short and not very long."

Cui Rong: "..."

You are short!

Cui Rong stared: "I'll give you a chance to compete with me. You won't let you lose too miserably."

Shen Hua's clear and dark eyes were shining brightly.

"Compare with me?"

"Um."

"But I don't want to compete with you."

"no!"

"Then I admit defeat."

Cui Rong was fierce. She raised her head proudly and put her hands on her hips: "Then I am not defeated by force?"

"no!"

The more Shenhua didn't want to compete, the more itchy she became.

"I order you to kick the shuttlecock."

"I am the princess, you have to listen to me."

Shen Hua: “I didn’t hear it.”

After all, Cui Rong had suffered a lot at the hands of Shen Hua, and it was hard for him to remain strong. The little girl unnaturally lowered her pinching arm, clenched her fists, and her eyes wandered.

She was sad and angry.

"Sister Shen, then I beg you."

Shen Hua lowered her eyes and said slowly, "I heard it this time."

Cui Rong quickly sent the shuttlecock to Shen Hua.

The shuttlecock was made by the maid serving her with pigeon wings. It was small and delicate. Shen Hua put some weight on it, and after knowing what she was thinking about, she threw it down and her embroidered shoes poked out of her skirt.

Catch it on your toes and throw it upward slightly.

Cui Rong counted them carefully.

Shen Hua took the ball very steadily, but after a while, her body couldn't bear it anymore. After only ten, the girl stopped.

Cui Rongsha’s interesting comments.

"That's it."

"It's my turn, Sister Shen, count for me."

She was so proud that she couldn't get carried away and listened to Shen Hua's calculations.

"one."

"one."

"one."

Cui Rong stopped.

"What's going on! Count up! Keep coming."

Shen Hua cooperated very well this time, counting from one to nine, and then said slowly.

"eight."

"seven."

Shen Hua faintly said: "It's really amazing, but why are there less and less of them?"

Cui Rong:...You ask me, who should I ask?

"five."

"two."

Cui Rong: Why are you still jumping and falling down?

"You've gone too far!" she shouted loudly.

Shen Hua covered her heart.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"The princess was frightened."

Cui Rong:!!!

"Is the princess still playing?"

Cui Rong turned around and ran away angrily.

Seeing her leaving, Shen Hua suppressed her smile a little. With a painful look on her face, she leaned weakly against the wall and slid down. After a moment of relaxation, she calmly and skillfully wiped away the remaining blood stains at the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.

The blood on the white handkerchief was still not the normal bright red, but it was no longer thick black.

Shen Hua looked at the white handkerchief and was slightly stunned.

Until Cui Rong walked back and forth. Shen Hua subconsciously put the handkerchief away. Then, she curled her fingers towards Cui Rong.

"Kid, help me up."

Cui Rong: "It took just the blink of an eye. It's really not worry-free at all."

She said this, but her body was honest and she ran over quickly.

Shen Hua held onto the wall with one hand and with some help from Cui Rong, she stood up. Cui Rong brought a chair over and asked Shen Hua to sit down.

Cui Rong pursed her lips and hesitated: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? I can go find Ni Kang. Where's Ying Wu? Did she go to the kitchen to steal chicken legs again? If I hadn't come back, who would have helped you? Ying Wu. As I said, Ying Wu is usually pretty good, but when it comes to chicken legs, he always makes mistakes. If you eat, eat, eat, you will know how to eat."

Shen Hua breathed shallowly.

She pretended not to care: "I'm fine. Yingyi went to get the medicine."

"Then you just-"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to call you on a whim."

Cui Rong pursed his lips.

She didn't say: But you just scared me.

Shen Hua: "Why are you coming back?"

"I heard that I, Chong Bingwen, am here. I am currently being rejected."

Chong Bingwen?

Shen Hua understood.

"You want to go there?"

Cui Rong shook his head: "My mother-in-law won't let me. She also said she won't let me call him cousin uncle anymore."

She pointed at Shen Hua: "I want you to accompany me."

"I can tell my mother-in-law later that you had to drag me there, so that my mother-in-law won't accuse me. What do you think?"

"I think your thoughts are quite beautiful."

Zhong Bingwen was dizzy and smelled of alcohol. The panic made him sober.

"Ai Niang!"

"Let me come out and see me."

He slapped the door of Xuan Mansion hard.

Mrs. Chong told him that it would not be too late to come back tomorrow, but he did not dare. He had a guilty conscience and was even more afraid of losing.

Mrs. Chong didn't understand the depth of officialdom, but he knew it best.

The Hanlin Academy was the poorest place in the imperial court where there was no chance of success, but the candidates squeezed in with all their might.

There are three people in the first and third grades of the imperial examination. The number one scholar and the second best scholar will enter the Hanlin Academy. The number one scholar and the best rank are the seventh rank.

The grade is not high, but it is noble enough.
