Chapter 215 – Stab Each Other Whenever They Meet! (1/2)
Chapter 215: Stab each other whenever they meet!
The guests were a group of young people dressed in luxury silk clothing, with an incredibly imposing demeanour.
Lu Qiji knew these people; Mu En also knew these people.
They are all part of the royal family of West Wind Kingdom, the same as Chu Xun. The blood of the Chu Clan runs through their body.
At the beginning of the establishment of Starry Sky Academy, the nine nations jointly helped with the construction and financing of the Academy. In return, Starry Sky Academy offers twenty places per year for each of the nine nations, most of which were for the children of the royal family or the children of some Generals and important ministers.
So don't be surprised if you see some important people like Prince or Princesses at Starry Sky Academy. Because it was inevitable. They are the continuation of a nation and the foundation of a country.
Generations after generations, no one could shake their dominance and status.
Except for themselves!
The leader is the first prince of West Wind Kingdom, Chu Kai; since he was named Kai[TN Note: Meaning of open/excavate], obviously has the meaning of hoping he opens up new territory and expand current ground. Thus, it's obvious that the Emperor Chu Xianda has high hopes for his first son.
Empress Huairen, the mother of the first Prince, obviously was very pleased and satisfied.
However, when the second prince was named Chu Jiang [TN Note: Territory], and the third prince Chu Tuo [TN Note: Expand], the people on the first prince's side did not look too good.
Is the emperor playing the idiom solitaire[TN Note: a word game]?
According to the habit of name giving by the emperor, the fourth prince should be called Chu Tu [TN Note: Ground]——perhaps he felt that this was unsuitable, and the name Chu Tu is really very unsophisticated.
So, the fourth prince was named Chu Li. The p.r.o.nunciation of 'Li'[TN note: Courtesy] and 'Li'[TN note: Appoint] are very similar, so many people conjectured that, the emperor named his fourth son 'Chu Li', because he wants to 'appoint' the fourth prince as the Crown prince, placing him first-in line to the throne and then inherit the throne of great treasure?
As a result, the imperial inner palace resorted to all b.l.o.o.d.y schemes and underhand methods.
Luckily, the sons were all still alive, and had not been played to death by their irresponsible father yet.
The first prince Chu Kai came to Starry Sky three years ago, if things goes smoothly, after two more years of study he will graduate and return to Tiandu and be crowned. The Second Prince did not come to Starry Sky Academy, instead chose Tiandu's West Wind University, it seems that he wants to be on the waterfront to be the first to see the rising moon. As for the Third Prince Chu Tuo, he is a new student this year like Lu Qiji and Chu Xun, and still have several years to spend here. The Fourth Prince is still young, when Lu Qiji and others came to Starry Sky to study, he was still learning the basic knowledge of sword skills in Tiandu's Still Water Sword School. And probably won't be sent to Starry Sky Academy any time soon.
However, after years of acc.u.mulation, currently several members of the royal family are in Starry Sky Academy——
Lu Qiji and Mu En stood respectfully to one side and simultaneously bowed and greeted the first prince and others.
Chu Kai came to a stop in front of Lu Qiji and said in a gentle voice: “Qiji no need to be so polite, this is Starry Sky Academy, only cla.s.smates and friends are here, there is no status and inferiority.”
Lu Qiji nodded, saying: “Understand.”
Even if the other person was a prince, she remained calm and indifferent. Perhaps in her mind, nothing in the world deserves her attention——except that dragon.
Chu Kai already knew of Lu Qiji's t.i.tle of 'Cold Beauty' and did not seem to care. He simply marvelled at the beauty of this woman, who was said to have caused an extraordinary scene in the sky the day she was born, and when she was a little older, her hair was found to be purple, which is completely different from the black hair of the people of West Wind Kingdom.
