Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 277: The Future Is Long

When it comes to academic matters, it’s usually the Little Traitor who answers...

But when it comes to playful gossip, Xiao Ah Zhi continues...

Perfect without a gap~

The hall was harmonious and lively, a wonderful scene.

On the other side at the Crown Prince Mansion, six Hidden Guards were lying in the courtyard taking a beating, across from them, on an intricately carved Pear Flower Chair, sat the Crown Prince adorned in gold-threaded brocade.

...forty-seven, forty-eight, forty-nine, fifty.

The Hidden Guards lying on the bench broke out in cold sweat, clenching their teeth, finally reaching fifty~

"Pa." The sound of the plank hitting flesh ceased.

It was finally over.

The pain was severe, yet not a single complaint was voiced.

Li Changnian sat gloomily in the center, displeasure clear on his face: "Ji San, tell me, how is your martial arts skill?"

The named person was startled, cautiously and respectfully opened his mouth: "Average."

Not high, not low, getting a middle ground, should be alright.

"Bang."

A premium Quanzhou white jade porcelain teacup smashed, scattering fragments under the bench.

The Crown Prince, in great anger, stood up and pointed, cursing: "Today, I saw you all being beaten from a tree, utterly defenseless. Is this your so-called average? Had this day not occurred, I would not have realized that surrounding me are mere wine sacks and rice bags. Since when did the Hidden Guards of the palace become so incompetent? If an enemy were to come, I fear my head would not see tomorrow."

Feeling still unsatisfied, Emperor Ming kicked the Pear Wood Chair beside him twice, toppling it with a kick.

The Hidden Guards on the bench said nothing, lowering their heads...

The master spoke the truth, there was no way to refute; even if wrong, refuting was not an option, the only thing left was to play dead!

"What, you have nothing to say? All of you turned mute?"

Li Changnian, looking at these wooden logs, didn’t say much more, waving his robe and leaving abruptly.

Ye Zhi, one day, he will definitely vent this frustration.

Lord Minister holds significant positions in court, and Mrs. Ye’s family is engaged in business, a major taxpayer to the treasury. Punishing Ye Zhi without cause may incite trouble; say no more, if the Emperor knew, his anger would be great.

He could only think of other methods~

The presence of Housekeeper Tan made the Crown Prince wary too; he did not expect her to have a master by her side.

Time is on his side, a gentleman takes revenge, even if it takes ten years, it’s not too late.

Little did he know, Ye Zhi thought the same way...

*

In front, Prince An covets the Ye Mansion with hungry eyes, his desire relentless.

Behind, the Crown Prince Li Changnian lurks in the shadows, bearing a grudge against little Ah Zhi of the Ye Mansion.

In between, the female lead Liu Qingxi from [Concubine’s Favor]...

The Ye Family is beset on all sides, surrounded by enemies.

Li Du believes Ye Zhi’s repeated disrespect to Miss Liu led to decreased interactions over time, even with few chances to meet in the Lingxiang Courtyard.

As for the future, no one can predict...

At home, whenever Ye Zhi got a chance, she played games like dueling, pitching, brick-throwing, child-catching, slingshot, archery, and pitch-pot with the Little Traitor.

The spear technique did not fall behind either.

In the academy, she’d seize every opportunity to practice with Huanhuan~

Talent is the characteristic imbued before growth, possessing natural aptitude in certain things or fields, enabling faster growth than others even under the same or no experience, with its uniqueness and particularity.

Ye Zhi had this talent in practicing the spear.

Her practice of the Howling Moon Spear Technique was exemplary, demonstrating proficiency in thrusting, slashing, pounding, entwining, circling, blocking, and twirling, mastering every move.
