Chapter 892: Chapter 892, Heroes Are Not Defined by Their Origins_1
Jiang Ning tried to look for clues from the countless past events, to investigate a person.
This was also a way for her to rest.
She lay on the bed, turned off the light, closed her eyes, and recalled the past in her mind. For her, this was an extrely important way of reviewing.
It seed that she was now living leisurely in the harem, everyone feared and respected her, but Jiang Ning knew the dangers of the harem, it was like a pack of wolves lurking around.
The fear and respect that people had for her now were all because of the two towering mountains standing behind her.
As the saying goes, when the mountain falls, the one relying on it dies.
...
There might be a day when those two mountains could no longer provide her support, and she hoped that she, a small tree, could grow into a towering tree that could protect these two mountains and shield them from wind and rain.
In this harem now, apart from a few maids and children by her side, she would never fully trust anyone.
That included Li Hongyuan, and of course, the two concubines in the East Palace who were usually obedient to her.
If a woman needed to be cautious of even Li Hongyuan, what kind of background would she co from?
It was terrifying when she thought about it.
But Jiang Ning would not be scared or retreat because of this, instead, it sohow stimulated her, like a cheetah that had been dormant for a long ti slling the scent of blood.
She rubbed her sore arm caused by training, and turned over.
Huang Ying imdiately noticed and said softly, “You were sore all over yesterday, should I get so plasters for you?”
“I can’t stand the sll, it’s overpowering.” Jiang Ning refused, “I’ve beco sore because I haven’t exercised for a long ti, but I’ll recover after a few days.”
Huang Ying was still worried and ended up massaging her shoulders and legs before letting her sleep.
So, she went to bed late and couldn’t open her eyes in the morning. Even Lingzi and Wenzan didn’t dare to disturb her when they ca to pay respects and heard that she was still sleeping.
Lingzi was forbidden from causing trouble in the Elegance Palace again, and Li Hongyuan didn’t want her to feel wronged, so he imdiately invited two female teachers to teach her poetry, essays, and martial arts.
These two teachers, both forr students of the Spring Autumn Academy, were no less educated than most of the scholars and generals in the Imperial Court.
But because they were won, they didn’t have many opportunities.
Over the years, they could only bounce between the hos of various noble families, teaching girls to read and write, which was quite an underutilization of their abilities.
After talking with them, Jiang Ning learned that they both ca from humble backgrounds, and were admitted to the Spring Autumn Academy solely because they were intelligent and capable.
This was indeed comndable.
The Spring Autumn Academy accepts students without questioning their backgrounds. Even if soone is an impoverished beggar, as long as they have talent, the academy welcos them.
This truly puts into practice the belief that heroes do not ask about their origins.
One of the ladies was nad Yin Lan, and the other one was called Wei Xiong.
Their nas were both quite distinctive, especially Wei Xiong, which is an entirely male na.
Wei Xiong seed accustod to people’s surprise and explained with a smile, “I’m an only daughter in my family and my parents wanted to be better than boys, so they chose this na for . I like it very much myself.”
Jiang Ning laughed, “It’s a good na. From now on, I’ll have to trouble the two teachers to educate my good-for-nothing daughter. I’m sorry to trouble you.”
Yin Lan and Wei Xiong quickly stood up, “Your Highness, the Princess Consort, is being too modest. It’s our honor to have the opportunity to educate the little princess in the palace.”
