When Cheng Yu stepped out of the academy, thinking of what happened back then, he felt a little dazed in his heart.
At present, although he is respectful to the eldest princess on the surface, he never goes against his will. However, in his heart, he felt that he was no different from the nobles of the country, and even had a bit of resentment hidden in his heart.
Cheng Yu was only ten years old, and he had already experienced a lot of hardships, and these experiences exercised his perseverance.
Apart from the extreme hatred in his heart for Princess Cheng who killed his mother, the rest are not worth mentioning. Even Yuan Jue, who had bullied him the hardest before, could not actually cause Cheng Yu's heartbreak.
The eldest princess could make his calm heart feel a little bit of complaints, but it was actually because of what happened in the snow.
When they first met, Cheng Yu thought he was a goddess who came to pick him up and returned home, and broke into his dull life like a dazzling light. However, this fantasy was brutally broken in less than a day.
The eldest princess whom he regarded as redemption, rescued him just to provoke Yuan Jue, and when the goal was achieved, he regarded it as nothing. But because he was afraid that he would dirty his palace, he cruelly asked the maid to wash him with snow water under that condition.
There was a huge difference in perception between this one and one fall, and even Cheng Yu couldn't bear it.
He always thought that he could survive under that kind of torture, or luck, or the long-term torture that made him enough to survive in that situation.
Today's Master's words broke all the facts that Cheng Yu believed.
The vicious torture he once thought was to save his life. Even when he was carried back to the palace by the maid, the eldest princess's malicious and sarcastic words were just to stimulate him not to fall into a coma.
In the class just now, the Master used his personal experience as an example to carefully analyze the treatment of frozen people. One of them is to try to keep the injured person awake, and once they are lethargic, they will never be able to wake up.
It turned out that what he saw and heard was not true. The eldest princess who was domineering and domineering on the surface was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Cheng Yu quickened his pace and walked towards the palace. This was the first time, when he returned to that cage, his heart was filled with joy.
When Cheng Yu stepped into the palace of the eldest princess, he had not yet returned, and should still accompany him in the palace of the second princess.
Gu Yu, the maid who stayed in the hall, saw Cheng Yu entering the door, and stepped forward to salute: "Young Master, the princess may be staying with the second princess tonight, so you don't have to wait here."
Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment, and felt a little disappointed. He thought about it and said, "Today, Master Li's lectures are a bit esoteric. Can you use the study room to organize your homework?"
Gu Yu smiled and said, "Please."
In this hall, except for the princess's bedroom, Cheng Yu can be said to be unimpeded without any restrictions. He nodded to Gu Yu, turned and walked towards the study.
Cheng Yu was cautious by nature. At first, because he didn't like Duke Chang's domineering temperament, he just obeyed the other party's wishes on the surface, so as not to suffer more torture.
Now that he knew that the eldest princess might not be what he saw on the surface, he thought to find out.
Cheng Yu stepped into the study, but instead of looking at the bookshelf on the side, he walked towards several large wooden boxes in the corner.
Although the princess is stubborn, she likes to read all kinds of miscellaneous books, and when she is reading a book, he also likes the new and hates the old. The books that have been read are still in several large boxes in the corners at will, and only the books that are being read or have not been read will be placed on the bookshelf.
Before entering the palace, the eldest princess said that in order to prevent Cheng Yu from being too embarrassing, she allowed Cheng Yu to enter the study room and read his collection at will.
Cheng Yu rummaged through the wooden box for a while, but did not find any books related to doctors, but found a school rules.
After being with the eldest princess for several months, Cheng Yu knew each other's hobbies. He would never even touch such books, but there were traces of flipping through this book.
When he flipped through it, he saw a familiar handwriting in the book: The son of a nobleman did not say that he was a nobleman of his own country, so he could persuade Master Shou Chengyu to enroll.
Cheng Yu's hands froze slightly, what the eldest princess said before taking him to the palace.
"Cheng Yu, I'm going to enter the palace tomorrow. No servants are allowed in the palace. You enter in the name of a student and do some chores for me."
"The academy shouldn't accept someone like me."
The eldest princess just raised her chin: "In this original country, except for the king and mother, no one dares to object to what I say."
Cheng Yu thought at the time that even in the face of these virtuous masters, the eldest princess used her power to oppress others, which was exactly the same as in the rumors.
However, the rules of the academy in front of him have completely overturned everything Cheng Yu had known about the eldest princess in the past few months.
Cheng Yu sat quietly in front of the wooden box for a moment, restored all the books, and got up to leave.
As soon as he reached the door, someone pushed the door and entered, exactly the person he had been thinking about in his heart.
"Cheng Yu, you really are still there." Du Yan just came back and heard Gu Yu said Cheng Yu was in the study, so he came over.
"Princess, why are you back?"
Du Yan glared at him: "This is my place, is it strange to come back?"
Cheng Yu said, "I didn't mean it that way. I just finished sorting out what Master said today, just so I can tell you."
After all, he took a few cases from the maid at the door and put them down by the window. After doing all this, he turned around and made a gesture to Du Yan: "Princess, sit down. The anecdote of the mountains and fields that the Master told today is quite interesting."
Du Yan heard the words, his eyes lit up, he walked quickly to the couch, sat down, and squeezed a piece of cake: "Very good, you have to tell the truth. If you make a mistake, I will whip you."
Du Yan in front of him still looks domineering and domineering, but Cheng Yu's perception is completely different.
Now it seems that she is more similar to a small beast with claws and claws. She looks very fierce, but in fact she has never done too much.
After Cheng Yu jumped out of the bureau, he found out that for the past few months, he had eaten the best food, wore the best clothes, and even entered the academy to study with the children of the nobles of the original country.
And all he needs to pay is to accompany the princess to have fun, and occasionally be reprimanded by him.
"Cheng Yu!" Du Yan frowned slightly, berating Cheng Yu who was lost in thought for some reason.
Cheng Yu came back to her senses, looked at Du Yan staring at him, the corners of her lips lifted slightly, and then began to repeat today's homework.
Cheng Yu subconsciously skipped the story about the Orion, and added another story from the classics he had read.
Du Yan listened carefully and did not notice anything unusual.
***
On this day, the school palace took a rest, and Du Yan accompanied Yuan Ning, who was just recovering, to play in the garden.
Du Yan played with the bow and arrow in his hand. Although the bow and arrow were small, they were not decorated with gems like the noble women liked, but were the same as those used by soldiers in the army.
Du Yan began to learn riding and archery a few days ago, which was given to him by his uncle, Lieutenant Wu.
The Wu family knew Du Yan's true identity, otherwise, the queen's ability alone would not be enough to hide from the sky.
Therefore, the upbringing of Du Yan and Yuan Ning is also different in the Wu family. Since he was a child, Du Yan has studied the theories of various schools in the school and the way of strategy at the queen's office.
Yuan Ning didn't think there was anything wrong with Du Yan dancing knives and guns at Wu's house. After all, her body was not as strong as her sister's since she was a child, and she was not interested in dancing with knives and guns.
However, she was very interested in her elder sister's ability: "Sister, how is your archery now? I heard that you can pierce a Yang arrow with a hundred steps without missing a shot."
Du Yan said with a smile: "I can't do it for the time being, but it's feasible to hit a hundred shots."
Yuan Ning's eyes widened: "Really? But you've only just started learning archery for more than a month..."
He raised his brows and beckoned to Cheng Yu who was standing in the distance: "Cheng Yu, come here."
When Cheng Yu walked to the front, Du Yan handed the tea cup in his hand to Cheng Yu and said, "Go over there, under that tree."
Although Cheng Yu didn't know where he was going, he didn't ask much, and went under the tree as ordered.
Seeing that the distance was about the same, Du Yan raised his voice, "Put the tea cup on your head and don't move it."
After saying that, he pulled the bowstring and compared it with an aiming posture.
Yuan Ning was shocked and jumped up from the stone bench: "Sister, don't do this, I don't watch it, I know your archery is the most accurate."
Du Yan glanced at her: "That can't be true, what I say is without evidence. If you don't let Ninger see it with your own eyes, how can you prove that what I said is true?"
Having said that, he took the arrow from the maid's hand and threw it on the bow.
Yuan Ning wanted to come forward to stop her, but heard Du Yan say: "Don't move, if you let me loose, Cheng Yu's life will be at risk.
Yuan Ning stopped in a hurry, sweat dripping from her forehead, and she didn't dare to approach Du Yan, so she could only say: "Cheng Yu, hurry up!"
Cheng Yu remained motionless, and his expression did not change.
Du Yan glanced at him for a moment, and when he saw Cheng Yu standing in the distance, he even frowned slightly. Those dark eyes just stared at him calmly.
Du Yan felt a little uncomfortable by him, and finally let go and threw the bow and arrow on the table: "It's boring, Cheng Yu, come back to me."
When Cheng Yu walked back, at an angle that Du Yan couldn't see, he lowered his head and smiled softly: "As expected."
