The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

The next morning, after getting up, Yang Qi first sorted out the homework and books he had done yesterday. After checking and verifying that they were correct, he had breakfast and went to Wutong Courtyard.

Unlike yesterday when they needed to be led by Ying's mother, from today on, Yang Qi and Yang Lan can sit down directly in class and do some preparation for the class. Yang Qi sat down and opened his book, and Yang Lan also entered the classroom.

Yang Qi smiled at Yang Lan and said, "Second sister, you are here."

Yang Lan looked at Yang Qi, who was in high spirits today, and felt happy. She nodded and said, "Third sister, you came very early today."

Yang Qi looked at Yang Lan in front of him and suddenly thought of the past life. In the past life, when he was at home, he and Yang Lan could see each other from time to time, and they would talk a few words every time they saw each other. But later, Yang Lan married the fifth prince. I still remember that on the day of her wedding, Yang Qi hid behind the crowd, watching waves of people congratulating Yang Lan, and watching Yuan Ruiyin, who was full of joy, come to the Duke of Song's mansion to pick up Yang Lan.

From that day on, Yang Qi and Yang Lan only met once, and that was when Yang Lan gave birth to the emperor's grandson. Yang Qi followed the old lady into the house and glanced at Yang Lan from afar. She saw that Yang Lan was wearing a headband embroidered with precious jade on her head, and her whole body was filled with maternal love and happiness.

Later, Yang Qi got married to Han Renyuan, and they had no children for eight years. Yang Lan became the queen, the person that Yang Qi admired, and the most precious woman in the entire Tianyuan Dynasty. Later, Yang Lan gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, for Yuan Ruiyin, becoming the person that all women envied.

The sound of Mr. Yang's footsteps coming from a distance woke Yang Qi up.

Mr. Yang entered the classroom, holding a book and a ruler, and said to Yang Qi and Yang Lan, "Start reciting the Three Character Classic now. Yang Lan, you go first."

Listening to Mr. Yang's words, Yang Lan stood up and began to recite: "When a person is born, his nature is good. Natures are similar, but habits make them different. If there is no teaching, nature will change..."

He finished the whole article without any pause or interruption. Mr. Yang nodded, motioned Yang Lan to sit down, and said to Yang Qi, "Yang Qi, do it again."

This was not a difficult task for Yang Qi. After he finished memorizing it successfully, Mr. Yang asked Yang Qi and Yang Lan to hand in the big characters they had written yesterday and started the second day of class.

Mr. Yang's morning class was to continue the remaining part of the "Three Character Classic" yesterday. Yang Lan and Yang Qi quickly wrote down the key points of Mr. Yang's lecture on paper. For a while, apart from Mr. Yang's gentle lecture, the only thing left in the classroom was the rustling sound of the brush writing.

After the morning content was over, Yang Qi took Mother He back to Linhu Courtyard. As soon as they arrived in the yard, Yang Qi saw that the three maids selected last time had arrived and said, "You come in first." Then he walked into the house.

When the three new maids entered the room, they all knelt down and said, "Greetings to the young lady."

Yang Qi picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and then said, "Come in, everyone."

Seeing the three maids stand up, Yang Qi continued, "You have all learned the rules of the mansion, but you still need to learn the rules of Linhu Courtyard from Mama He and Mama Fan. Since you have entered Linhu Courtyard, you will be called Xinche, Xinlian, and Xinyun from now on."

As soon as Yang Qi finished speaking, the three maids said in unison:

"Xin Che thanks Miss for the name."

"Xinlian thanks Miss for the name."

"Xinyun thanks Miss for the name."

Then Yang Qi looked at Mother He and Mother Fan and said, "Xin Che and the other two will have to worry about you mothers."

Mother Fan smiled and said, "This is what an old slave should do."

Yang Qi picked up the teacup in her hand again and took a sip. Mother Fan looked at her and knew what was going on. She took the lead in bowing and said, "Miss, let's go downstairs and set the table now." Then, she led everyone in the room back.

Since the meal had not been served yet, Yang Qi took a pen and paper and started practicing calligraphy. Time was tight, so he had to cherish every moment of study.

After a short lunch break, the afternoon classes began. Like yesterday, Mr. Yang taught Yang Qi and Yang Lan to practice calligraphy in the afternoon.

Today's homework was, as expected, to finish writing the second half of the Three Character Classic. Mr. Yang also left some time in class for Yang Qi and Yang Lan to do their homework.

After school and before dinner, Yang Qi finished all the homework for the day. After dinner, Yang Qi sat by the lake with a book.

Inside the East Palace, the prince’s study.

Peilin half-squatted on the ground, motionless. Yuan Ruiyuan held the report that had just been presented, tapping the table with his hands. Uncle An was now going to show his support for Yuan Ruiyin. He had been making so many moves these days. Was he deliberately trying to attract his attention? With a wave of his hand, Peilin immediately disappeared into the room.

Yuan Ruiyuan changed into black clothes, looked at the time, jumped up, and disappeared into the house.

Yuan Ruiyuan approached quietly in a small house in the suburbs. There were already two people in the house, but one of them was obviously pale and had gauze wrapped around his hand.

After looking around, Yuan Ruiyuan closed the door and said, "Ah Xuan, how are you now?"

The man with a pale face looked at Yuan Ruiyuan, and after a moment's pause, he said, "Don't worry, I'm fine now. God doesn't want to take me away yet."

It was quiet at night, and even the chirping of insects seemed to have subdued their voices around the hut.

After finishing the conversation, Yuan Ruiyuan left the hut and prepared to rush back to the capital. With light steps, Yuan Ruiyuan stepped over the treetops and quickly rushed back to the capital.

The wind speed around my ears suddenly increased, and a danger was approaching quickly. Yuan Ruiyuan stopped and said to the people around him, "Come out."

As soon as he finished speaking, eight assassins in black night clothes appeared strangely from all directions of Yuan Ruiyuan. Yuan Ruiyuan looked around, pulled his hand from his belt, and a sharp soft sword cut through the night sky. The reflected light made Yuan Ruiyuan's eyes even colder.

Eight assassins attacked at the same time, stabbing Yuan Ruiyuan. After a few moves, Yuan Ruiyuan killed four of them, and was stabbed several times. "Poison Scorpion, you are really willing to spend money."

Yuan Ruiyuan stepped lightly and stabbed the remaining four people with his soft sword. The four people were pushed back several steps. Taking advantage of this gap, Yuan Ruiyuan quickly ran away.

"The sword is poisoned." Yuan Ruiyuan's physical strength at this moment was totally insufficient to support his Qinggong. Thinking that things were not good, Yuan Ruiyuan staggered to the lakeside and entered the secret passage under the water.

When the capital was built, in addition to the roads on the road, several waterways were opened underground. The entrances and exits of these waterways are extremely secretive, and few people know about them. Yuan Ruiyuan is now poisoned. Although it is not fatal, he cannot walk freely now. Yuan Ruiyuan has no choice but to enter the waterway and make arrangements.
