Chapter 1451: 709 The monarch’s indulgence

After all, it wasn’t mom or dad who came to pick them up, so no one really won over the other.

Soon, Master Deng from the Genius Class arrived to start teaching the students.

Perhaps the monarch had given instructions, so Master Deng didn’t pay special attention to the Little Princesses but merely introduced to the children who had been waiting for a while that this was a new student named Yun Xue.

Of course, it was a pseudonym.

Xiaoxue and Yun Xue, only one character apart, but when the latter was uttered solemnly and calmly by the master, one couldn’t be so certain it was definitely a girl’s name.

There were three reasons for this.

First, there was a boy in the class named Mo Hanxue.

Second, except for Jingkong, no one else could even think of a girl disguising herself as a boy.

Third, and this was the most important point, the Little Princess sounded too cutesy when introducing herself to Little Jingkong, obviously a girl who was easily bullied.

Little Jingkong felt that a true little man should be like him, chest out, back straight, eyes firm, emitting an aura of sheer masculinity!

Master Lu: “Jingkong, why are you being blocked by books again?”

The two-meter-eight stature instantly shrank back to two-centimeter-eight.

Little Jingkong silently moved the three books in front of him, it’s not good to be too small, when the table is taller than you.

In fact, the Little Princess was also small, but she was a princess, not here to study, but to experience life, so of course, Master Lu didn’t demand too much from her.

… Mainly because he didn’t dare to.

It was the Little Princess’s first time being with so many children, a different experience from what she was used to.

The learning atmosphere was also very different.

Students in the Imperial Academy were mostly royal relatives, and while some did study, many were just idling their days away.

However, students of the Genius Class were not there to waste time, at least not until today.

They had all been through strict selection and had to be exceptionally intelligent to join the class.

The Little Princess was one of only two who had entered through the back door.

The first one was her father, Lord Yun Shan.

Even Little Jingkong, when he had received his admission letter, had not immediately joined the Genius Class; he had entered through an exam later on.

The Little Princess found the class very interesting; more so than the Imperial Academy, and she decided to study hard to become the smartest little girl in all of Shengdu.

She took out her books and the special small brush given to her by the monarch uncle, and started practicing her writing seriously.

A morning went by.

She drew eight little turtles.

Little Jingkong, on the other hand, studied seriously all morning, not because he loved to study, but because it was his duty.

How could he not, when his bad brother-in-law was so unimpressive and both his brothers didn’t like studying? He had to be the family’s little pillar.

He planned to pass the exams as soon as possible, stand out, support Jiaojiao, his bad brother-in-law, and take care of his two older brothers as well as Little Yi to Little Shiyi.

The arrival of a small little bean in the class certainly caught the students’ attention, firstly because the Little Princess was so young, even younger than Little Jingkong, and secondly because the Little Princess was too cute, sitting there all plump and squishy, making people unable to resist pinching her cheeks.

After class, a few bold classmates gathered around, either standing in front of the table or leaning on it, staring wide-eyed as if to observe the Little Princess.

Others felt awkward around adults, but it was the other way around with the Little Princess.

After all, in the palace, no child dared to get this close to her.

“Hey, little bean, where are you from?”

“I…from home.”

The monarch uncle said, the Imperial Palace was her home too.

“How old are you?”

The Little Princess counted on her fingers and held up three fingers: “Four years old!”

Everyone burst into laughter.

The little bean couldn’t even count properly, too adorably dumb!

Everyone agreed that this little bean was easier to fool than the other little bean, who was too fierce, always coming first in exams, with incredibly tough little fists.

“Did you understand what was taught in class today?”

“Understood!”

“Then what did Master Lu talk about?”

“He talked about, talked about…” The Little Princess couldn’t answer.

Having spent the whole morning drawing turtles, how could she have listened to what the master had said?

The classmates’ sense of mischief kicked in, and the boldest one reached out to pinch the Little Princess’s cheek.

The Little Princess, with her rich experience in dealing with adults, was completely baffled by the children and didn’t know what to do, watching dumbfounded as the hand moved towards her little face.

Suddenly, a well-defined (not really) pudgy little hand grabbed the classmate’s wrist.

“What are you doing?”

The owner of the little hand asked with domineering presence.

The caught nine-year-old classmate suddenly cowered, stuttering, “No, nothing.”
