Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Your Highness, King Cheng, this matter is indeed Wang Ya’s fault. She…”

“I didn’t do anything wrong!”

Wang Ya, who was staring at Jiang Sijin, interrupted her aunt before she could finish.

With her eyes full of hatred for Jiang Sijin, Wang Ya said coldly, “The one who is wrong is not me; it’s Jiang Sijin.”

“You were the one who wanted to kill me. Why am I at fault?”

Upon hearing these words, Jiang Sijin looked at Wang Ya, her eyes filled with confusion.

But Wang Ya’s eyes were full of ridicule and disdain.

Looking at Jiang Sijin, she said coldly, “I have been in the army for years, and you’ve just arrived a few months ago. Yet, you took away everything that was originally mine. Why? Just because you are the third young lady of the general’s mansion, and because your mother is the leader of the Flying Feather Army?”

“Jiang Sijin, how am I worse than you? What right do you have to take everything from me?”

By the end of her statement, Wang Ya’s eyes were full of tears.

The soldiers who initially looked at her with contempt, their expressions changed significantly after hearing her words.

However, Jiang Peihuan sneered.

Hearing her laughter, everyone turned to look at her, but Jiang Peihuan only had eyes for Wang Ya.

Taking a step forward and stopping within a step of Wang Ya, Jiang Peihuan said, “You wanted to kill my sister, is it really because she took everything that belonged to you, or because you are jealous?”

“I, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Do you really not know what I am talking about?”

Before Wang Ya could say anything, Jiang Peihuan continued, “You’ve been in the army for many years, Wang Ying is your aunt, I assume she has devoted all her effort to you. But from what I can see, your martial arts skills are average, and your strategy, given your intellect, must be mediocre too.”

“In the army, strength is king. There are mo types of strength: martial arts and strategy. You don’t have either, yet you aspire to sit on the throne?”

“You are not upset because Sijin took everything from you, but because you’re jealous. You are jealous of my sister’s status as the third young lady of the general’s mansion, her martial arts talent, and her strategic mind in military matters.”

“I’m not!”

With each sentence from Jiang Peihuan, Wang Ya’s face became more sullen.

At the end, she couldn’t hold back any longer. She yelled at Jiang Peihuan, her eyes full of tears.

Seeing Wang Ya like this, Jiang Peihuan suddenly laughed. Looking at Wang Ya, she spoke softly, “Since you say you’re not, I’ll give you a chance.”

“I won’t use a weapon, and I’ll let you use one hand. If you can beat me, I’ll ask Sijin to drop this matter today, how about that?”

“Don’t be arrogant!”

“Enough talk, this is your only chance. Do you want it?”

“Can I use a weapon?”

“Yes.”

“You’ll fight with one hand?”

“Yes.”

“If I hurt you, you…”

“Don’t worry, if you can hurt me, that would be your own skill.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ya couldn’t resist any longer. She drew her sword and lunged at Jiang Peihuan.

Jiang Peihuan sidestepped to avoid her.

The crowd, seeing the two starting to fight, instinctively made room for them.

Xiao Nanye, observing this scene, showed a faint smile. Jiang Sijin knew that her elder sister was skilled, but she couldn’t help but show some worry.

Wang Ya, wielding a sword, stood against Jiang Peihuan, who was unarmed with one hand held behind her back. Nevertheless, Jiang Peihuan managed to kick Wang Ya to the ground. Wang Ya slid two meters across the ground before coughing up blood.

Yet, she picked up her long sword and charged again.

Upon seeing her determination, a flash of surprise appeared in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

The outcome was the same each time. After the third round, when Jiang Peihuan kicked Wang Ya to the ground, Wang Ya could no longer get up.

Wang Ya glared at Jiang Peihuan, full of resentment. The hatred that had once been directed towards Jiang Sijin was now targeted at Jiang Peihuan.

Jiang Peihuan walked over to Wang Ya and crouched beside her. Gazing at the woman lying on the ground, she spoke calmly, “I bet you’re thinking that if you had someone to guide you like I did, you would be better than me.”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Wang Ya’s eyes widened in surprise.

Jiang Peihuan continued, “In this world, talent is important, but so is hard work. My sister, Jiang Sijin, and I started training every day since we were three, no matter how cold or hot it was, we never stopped. Besides martial arts, as daughters of a general, we had much more to learn. Meanwhile, all you had to learn in the military camp were martial arts and strategy.”

“If you’re not talented, you can still work hard. The most useless people in this world are those who lack talent, don’t work hard, and still think highly of themselves.”

After saying this, Jiang Peihuan stood up.

She didn’t glance at Wang Ya again but turned to Jiang Sijin, “As your elder sister, I’ll let you handle this matter. Whatever you decide, I’ll respect your choice.”

“Elder sister?”

“Eldest Miss?”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Wang Ying, who was standing nearby, looked anxious. She wanted to say something but hesitated.

Jiang Sijin, upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, seemed confused.

She was angry with Wang Ya, but only that.

After a while, Jiang Sijin said to Jiang Peihuan, “Elder sister, no matter what decision I make, you’ll agree with it?”

“Mhm.”

“Then, let’s put an end to today’s matter.”

As soon as Jiang Peihuan nodded, Jiang Sijin announced her decision.

Hearing this, everyone except Jiang Peihuan looked surprised, especially Wang Ya, who was lying on the ground. She had already resigned herself to death.

Jiang Peihuan didn’t say much, only turned to Jiang Sijin, “You’ve made your decision?”

“Yes, I have.”

“Deputy General Wang, let’s put today’s matter to rest.”

“Thank you, Miss. I will discipline Wang Ya strictly in the future.”

Gratitude filled Wang Ying’s eyes, but Wang Ya, full of rage, glared at Jiang Sijin, “Don’t think that just because you spared me, I’ll be grateful to you, you…”

“I don’t need your gratitude.”

Before Wang Ya could finish her sentence, Jiang Sijin interrupted her, her gaze steady. She said softly, “I spared you because we are both soldiers. But in the future, if you harm anyone again, I will kill you!”

After speaking, Jiang Sijin turned away from Wang Ya and looked at Jiang Peihuan, “Elder sister, I haven’t been home for a long time. How about we go back and stay for a few days?”

“Mhm.”

There were holidays in the military, but Jiang Sijin had never taken one because she was always training.

After seeing Jiang Peihuan’s nod, the young girl happily climbed into the carriage.

Jiang Peihuan glanced at Wang Ying and also got into the carriage..
