Chapter 249 Not on the same path
"Why do I smell a really sour smell?" Xuan Yuanjing turned to Aman and asked, "Can you smell it?"

Aman glanced at Fengyin with a half-smile, "Perhaps Miss Feng has drunk too much vinegar, which is why her words have a sour tone."

"Hmph, sharp-tongued!" Feng Yin said coldly, "You'll be crying soon enough."

"What, do you want to have a contest with me?" Xuan Yuanjing drew the whip from his waist and took a step closer to her.

Feng Yin had witnessed her martial arts skills before. Seeing her stance, she swallowed hard and immediately hid behind Xu Yanyan before shouting, "Yanyan is about to marry the Emperor. She is the future Empress. How dare you be so insolent in front of her!"

"A fox borrowing the tiger's might!" Xuan Yuanjing said disdainfully. "If you're so capable, then don't hide behind him!"

Feng Yin was furious, but she only dared to urge Xu Yanyan, "Yanyan, you should beat her up and show her what you're capable of."

To everyone's surprise, Xu Yanyan remained unmoved. "Today I want to compete against the Regent's Consort. If you want to win against the Princess of Yue, you can go up yourself."

Feng Yin choked back a sob.

If she were skilled in martial arts, would there be any need to instigate her?

That country bumpkin!
But he said with a sullen expression, "I was just joking."

Xu Yanyan ignored her and looked at Yun Wei. "I have long heard that the Regent's Consort is exceptionally skilled in martial arts. I have specially invited you here today to learn from you. I hope the Regent's Consort will be so kind as to offer her guidance."

Upon hearing this, Yunwei's gaze fell upon her.

She received her invitation this morning, and since she had nothing else to do, she invited Xuanyuan Jing and Aman, who were also free, to come and keep the appointment.

It turned out that he wanted to practice with her.

"I didn't expect Miss Xu to have such an interest, but I'm not feeling well today and don't really want to resort to violence. I'm sorry to disappoint you," Yun Wei said calmly.

She wasn't making excuses; she genuinely felt sore all over.

Last night, Rong Zhen had sex with her several times without restraint, especially in the bathroom, where her legs couldn't take it anymore.

She fell asleep, but after she recovered, Rong Zhen wanted it several more times in bed.

Thinking of that man's prowess in bed, a blush rose on Yunwei's fair face.

She bit her lip; tonight, she would absolutely not let him act recklessly again.

She's really worried that her body can't handle such unrestrained behavior every day.

Xu Yanyan paused, somewhat surprised, and asked, "You've started your period?"

“…Mm.” Yun Wei nodded.

She naturally didn't come, but she couldn't think of a better excuse than to come during her period.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yanyan's face flashed with disappointment.

Ever since she lost to Yun Wei outside Wangyue Tower, she has been holding a grudge. During this time, she has been hiding at home practicing martial arts diligently, hoping to get revenge.

Unexpectedly, after finally managing to get Yunwei to come out, she started her period.

Although she wanted to beat Yunwei, she wouldn't take advantage of her when she was inconvenient.

"What a coincidence!" Feng Yin suddenly said, "You got your period as soon as Yan Yan invited you out. But you don't look like you're on your period. Could this be an excuse you used to fob Yan Yan off?"

Yunwei glanced at her.

She found it strange; she and her friend had little interaction, so why was the friend targeting her at every turn?

Could it be that Empress Dowager Feng instigated this?

"Miss Feng is quite skilled. She can tell at a glance whether someone has started their period. Even doctors probably can't do that. Has Miss Feng opened her third eye?" Yun Wei sneered.

“What I mean is, you look so energetic, you don’t look like you’re on your period at all.” Feng Yin frowned.

“Everyone’s condition during their period is different. Just because you’re listless during your period doesn’t mean others will be the same as you.” Aman almost rolled her eyes.

Feng Yin was about to say something more when Xu Yanyan interrupted her, "Alright, if the Regent's Consort says it's inconvenient, then it's definitely inconvenient."

Feng Yin's eyes widened. "Why are you taking her side? Have you forgotten how she ambushed us outside Wangyue Tower last time?" Yun Wei raised an eyebrow at Xu Yanyan. "So, you invited me here today because of that incident?"

Xu Yanyan did not deny it, "Yes."

Seeing her so frank, Yunwei looked at her with newfound respect.

"You are the only woman I know who knows martial arts," Xu Yanyan added.

Yunwei understood. "I'm really not feeling well today and don't really want to fight. If you're interested, we can arrange to meet again next time."

Xu Yanyan was somewhat surprised that she was so easy to talk to, "Okay."

"Yan Yan, if you miss today, when will you have time? You'll be entering the palace soon, and once you're there, you won't be so free anymore," Feng Yin quickly reminded her when she saw that she was giving up so easily.

Upon hearing the words "enter the palace," Xu Yanyan's eyes dimmed.

If she could, she wouldn't want to enter the palace; she only wanted to go to the battlefield and become a female general.

But she knew that since the founding of the Wei Kingdom, there had never been a female general, and no one believed that women could lead troops into battle.

Therefore, even though she had mastered martial arts, she had no opportunity to use them.

Thinking of this, she felt somewhat dejected.

Yunwei glanced at her and said softly, "You'd rather fight on the battlefield than enter the palace, wouldn't you?"

Xu Yanyan suddenly raised her head, looking intently at her, "You know what I'm thinking?"

"It's not hard to see," Yun Wei nodded.

Xu Yanyan sighed, about to say something, when Feng Yin beside her said in a sharp voice, "Yanyan, how can a woman fight on the battlefield? And how can that compare to being an empress?"

For the first time, Xu Yanyan realized that her voice was so unpleasant. She frowned and said, "As long as you have the ability, women can also fight on the battlefield. There is no other way but to get married and have children."

Yunwei looked at her in surprise.

Xuanyuan Jing and Aman were also somewhat surprised.

Feng Yin scoffed, "What else can we women do besides get married and have children?"

What a woman wants most in her life, isn't it to marry a good man and then gain status through her children!
Thinking of this, she glared at Yun Wei with resentment in her eyes.

That one glance made Yunwei understand why she was always hostile towards her.

So this woman is also eyeing Rong Zhen.

However, considering Rong Zhen's face and the power he wields, it's indeed hard not to attract young girls.

First there was Yu Shu, and now there is Feng Yin.

Yun Wei snorted coldly, feeling somewhat displeased.

But thinking that Rong Zhen was not someone who could be easily swayed, he didn't take it to heart.

Xu Yanyan knew that women these days thought that way, so she didn't argue with Feng Yin, but she didn't like what Feng Yin said.

I always felt she was too foolish.

Thinking of this, she said bluntly, "Feng Yin, we are not on the same path. Don't come looking for me again."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yin was both shocked and furious.

Why does this country bumpkin look down on her?
If it weren't for the fact that she was about to become empress, she wouldn't bother getting close to her.

Does Xu Yanyan think she's some kind of hot commodity?

With her appearance, she would be destined to be ignored even if she entered the palace. Would her emperor cousin even look at her?

She was inwardly disdainful, but outwardly she feigned sadness and grievance, "Yan Yan, why? Is there something I did wrong?"
