Chapter 312: Apologize

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone’s interest was piqued when they saw this, and they gathered to watch the show. In their opinion, Yu Yunxi, the Eldest Princess, was blindly arrogant and ignorant of her own ability.

After all, Yu Pei had followed the King of Zhenbei to conquer the north and the south when he was in his early teenage years. Everyone in the Crimson Flame Army was convinced by his martial arts.

How dare Yu Yunxi, who was nothing more than a vase, provoke Yu Pei?

In any case, they thought this was a good thing. With this, Yu Pei would be able to teach Yu Yunxi a lesson so she would give up on the idea of taking over the Crimson Flame Army.

At this moment, Hou Wenlin watched coldly from the side as he thought to himself, ‘His Highness, the King of Zhenbei, isn’t aware of his daughter’s return to the capital, but in the past, he has never mentioned Princess Changning and his daughter. It seems like he doesn’t care about the mother and daughter at all…’

Many of the soldiers from the Crimson Flame Army shared this thought so they did not feel a need to be polite with Yu Yunxi. If she had been self-aware and did not have any designs on the Crimson Flame Army, they would have ignored her. However, if she insisted on taking over the Crimson Flame Army, it was only natural for Yu Pei to teach her a lesson.

At this moment, a loud noise rang in the air when Yu Yunxi’s soft sword collided with Yu Pei’s saber.

Yu Pei was slightly surprised when he saw that Yu Yunxi was unharmed by his attack.

‘Hmm? Her martial arts skills don’t seem to be low…

“General Yu, don’t be distracted. Let’s continue!” Yu Yunxi reminded.

Yu Pei gritted his teeth. He no longer underestimated his opponent.

The duo continued to exchange blows, dazzling their audience. Some of them could not even catch the duo’s movements. The more they watched, the more shocked they became. All of them assumed that Yu Yunxi would not even be able to withstand one attack from Yu Pei.

‘I thought the Eldest Princess had no skills! What’s going on?’

While everyone else was shocked, Yu Pei’s heart sank. He discovered that not only was Yu Yunxi’s martial arts not low, but they were very powerful. He could also sense that she was not using her full strength when fighting him.

Finally, after a long time, Yu Yunxi pressed her soft sword against Yu Pei’s neck and said icily, “General Yu, you lost.”

Yu Pei hesitated for a long time as he looked down at the soft sword against his neck.

Everyone was thoroughly shocked.

‘General Yu lost to the Eldest Princess?’

At this moment, one of Yu Pei’s trusted aides questioned angrily, “Eldest

Princess, did you use some underhanded means to defeat our general?”

The others nodded in agreement. They could not believe that Yu Pei had lost to

Yu Yunxi.

Upon hearing this, Yu Pei said reproachfully, “A Zhang, shut up!”

Then, Yu Pei looked at Yu Yunxi and said in a complicated tone, “My skills are inferior, and I lost to the Eldest Princess. I’m sincerely convinced.”

Yu Pei was in shock and disbelief earlier. However, after he regained his composure, he recalled the details of their fight and discovered that he was indeed inferior to her.

Yu Yunxi said modestly, “General Yu, you’re too humble. In fact, your martial arts are better than mine. You just made the mistake of underestimating your enemy at the beginning. Also, I saw through your mistake. That’s why I was able to defeat you.”

Before Yu Pei could respond, Hou Wenlin suddenly said, “Eldest Princess, you don’t have to be so humble. Pei is indeed inferior to you.”

The others were shocked again when they heard Hou Wenlin’s words. In fact, after they calmed down earlier, they could also roughly see that Yu Pei’s martial arts were not as powerful as those of Yu Yunxi. Hou Wenlin’s words only confirmed their thoughts.

Nonetheless, there were still a few people who were not convinced.

“I wonder if General Yu deliberately lost to the Eldest Princess? We’re talking about General Yu after all. If he didn’t deliberately lose, who would be able to defeat him?”

Yu Yunxi had a keen hearing, and she heard these words. She quickly said,

“Those who aren’t convinced can challenge me.”

Someone asked, “Can we really challenge the Eldest Princess?”

After all, what if they hurt her, and she complained to the Emperor Emeritus?

“Yes, you can,” Yu Yunxi said with a nod, “In fact, you should come at me together. ”

‘Together? She really looks down on us!’

Many people were angry. They felt that Yu Yunxi was looking down on them. “Then, I apologize for offending you first, Eldest Princess.”

They exchanged a glance before they picked up their weapons and charged at

Yu Yunxi.

Among these people, there were a few of them who were not from the Crimson Flame Army. These few people’s thoughts were very simple. If they could take advantage of the chaos to kill Yu Yunxi, even if they were beheaded, their master definitely would take care of their families on their behalf.

Jiang Ying discovered that something was amiss immediately. He gritted his teeth and said, “Your Royal Highness, it seems like many people in Xichu want the Princess Consort’s life.’

Feng Vili’s gaze was cold, and his aura was murderous.

‘Even the vast Xichu can’t accommodate her. However, now that I’m with her, I won’t let anyone hurt her…’

Yu Pei also noticed that something was wrong at this moment. A furious expression appeared on his face immediately, and he raised his hand to stop

everyone.

However, Hou Wenlin quickly stopped Yu Pei and said, “Pei, the new master of the Crimson Flame Army should be able to deal with this situation easily.”

‘What?’

Yu Pei was shocked by Hou Wenlin’s words, and it took a long time for him to react. He asked in shock, “Old General Hou, does this mean that you accept her as the master of the Crimson Flame Army?”

“Why? Aren’t you convinced? If not, why don’t you fight her again?” Hou

Wenlin said, stroking his beard.

Yu Pei: .

‘There’s no need for that… Why would I embarrass myself again?’

Seeing that Yu Yunxi did not intend to stop her ruthless treatment of those few people, a few onlookers could not help but speak up.

“Eldest Princess, we’re inferior to you, we admit defeat! However, there’s no need for you to kill them, right? We’re all from the Crimson Flame Army!”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked meaningfully, “The Crimson Flame

Army? Are you sure these few people are from the Crimson Flame Army?”

The onlookers looked at the few injured and bloody people again and quickly discovered the few people did not possess the token of the Crimson Flame Army.

‘They… they seem to be from the Crown Prince and the other princes’ troops…

Yu Yunxi said, slightly angry, “Earlier, these people were the ones who made the loudest noise. You didn’t even know that you were being instigated…”

Although Yu Yunxi had not officially taken over the Crimson Flame Army, she was still angry that they were so easily manipulated.

The others were not stupid. Now that Yu Yunxi had said so much, how could they not understand what was going on? They quickly lowered their heads in shame.

At this moment, Hou Wenlin walked over and said, “Eldest Princess, I was rude earlier. I apologize to you..”
