Chapter 213 Picking up the Whip
Gu Junqing stood in the open space, thinking that after that group of people finished their chess class, they would come to her place to learn martial arts.
In fact, among all the tutors in the National Academy, the youngest is Gu Junqing, followed by Ji Rang.
Gu Junqing didn't think it was a big deal at first, but when the students from the National Academy rushed to learn martial arts from her, she felt a little dazed when she saw the students in front of her who were of the same age or older than her.
However, this trance only lasted a few seconds before being broken by several students below.
There happened to be a few people she was familiar with, and the most eye-catching one among them was standing up, staring at her with his eyes full of unwillingness to admit defeat. Gu Junqing remembered him, this man was the son of the Ye family, that is, Ye Yun who would be engaged to Liu Yanyan.
She watched him stand up, her expression unchanged, even calm. The long whip in her hand slightly whipped the ground. She raised her eyes nonchalantly, looked at Ye Yun, and asked:
"What advice do you have?"
Ye Yun seemed a little intimidated by the long whip in Gu Junqing's hand. Watching her swinging it, he was worried that this guy would whip him directly. But then he thought, Gu Junqing would not be criticized and rumors unfavorable to her would spread on the first day.
So he straightened his back, with a proud and provocative look on his face, and said loudly: "General Gu, I heard that this is your first time to take on the position of Grand Tutor, but you have no teaching experience, and you are younger than us students. General Gu, do you think you are suitable for the position of Grand Tutor of Martial Arts?"
Ye Yun's original intention was to humiliate Gu Junqing, implying that she was too young to teach others, so it was useless to learn. When Gu Junqing heard this, his heart was a little emotional, and his face was calm. He moved his mouth and asked a simple question without any tone:
"Are you dissatisfied with the imperial decree issued by the emperor?"
Gu Junqing's tone was as if she was facing a disobedient and ignorant child. Her tone was light, casual and yet also like a reminder.
Ye Yun felt a little depressed by Gu Junqing's simple question. He couldn't possibly say that the emperor's words were bad, because that would cost him his life.
Ye Yun himself was not an ungrateful person. After seeing that Gu Junqing had prepared everything and asked them to stand apart and practice separately, he was too lazy to pay attention to anything else.
This would prevent Gu Junqing from taking revenge on him during class later and setting a trap behind his back.
He simply didn't like the fact that someone younger than him became their tutor, so he respectfully addressed the person in front of him as "Teacher".
That's it.
After seeing Ye Yun sitting down obediently, Gu Junqing tightened his grip on the whip in his hand, and then swung it. A sound like thunder burst out of nowhere, and those who were a little less courageous on the field took a step back in fear.
Gu Junqing saw it, but didn't say anything.
Directly tell the students present what you are going to teach next.
"Today I will teach you the basics of whip techniques. Please watch me carefully as I use them."
Gu Junqing let the students present watch and learn each move.
Those who didn't know how to use the whip were dazzled by Gu Junqing's whip-swinging speed, so they didn't try to learn it carefully.
The prince's buddies who had a little knowledge of whip-fighting felt that Gu Junqing's whip movements were neat and decisive, and at the same time, there was a special kind of beauty that was a little hard to describe, but in short, it was soft and sharp.
Everyone in the world likes to admire the strong, and the people present are no exception.
In my mind I thought to ignore it and just learn it casually, but my body honestly watched every move Gu Junqing made with the whip and memorized it silently in my heart.
Especially Ye Yun, who was the first one to provoke others just now. At this moment, he was watching Gu Junqing's actions intently without blinking.
After Gu Junqing showed everyone everything he was going to teach today, he put away the whip and looked up to see everyone's reactions.
However, as soon as she looked up, she saw Ye Yun, who had been provoking her, standing in the middle of a group of people with a red face and sparkling eyes looking at her, like a dog seeing a bone.
When Gu Junqing thought of this metaphor, his brows furrowed, obviously he didn't like the metaphor that compared himself to meat and bones.
Fortunately, Ye Yun just looked a little excited, but did not continue to say anything provocative.
Next, it depends on these people's memory to see what they have learned.
After all, Gu Junqing was appointed by the Emperor himself to be the tutor of the National Academy. This was a fact and they did not dare to refute anything. They could only stumble and imitate Gu Junqing's actions and reluctantly stand in their positions and crack the whips.
Gu Junqing wandered around this group of people, correcting their wrong movements with his fingers.
Especially Ye Yun, who had a lot of bad habits and was extremely careless about details. Seeing that he looked listless and no longer had the arrogant attitude he had just had, Gu Junqing inexplicably began to think that Ye Yun was a pretty cute boy.
However, this thought only lasted for a moment, until Gu Junqing saw the man holding the whip in his hand, and he didn't know how he used some method to swing the whip out of his hand and onto the ground on the other side.
Gu Junqing: “…” It’s okay to be unlovable for a moment.
Gu Junqing retracted his gaze and wanted to pick up the long whip that Ye Yun had thrown at his feet.
But just as she squatted down, she suddenly felt a cool breeze passing over the back of her head. Her eyes instantly turned cold, and the original action of bending down turned into turning sideways.
A sound of breaking air came from not far away from his ears.
Gu Junqing saw another long whip on the ground, and looked in the direction where the whip was originally placed. Its owner was standing there in a triumphant manner, with a nonchalant smile on the corner of his mouth, but his expression seemed to contain some regret, and he was standing in a disheveled manner.
As for what they regretted, everyone present knew it well.
Isn't it just a regret that the long whip didn't hit the back of Gu Junqing's head?
It was obvious that he was here to cause trouble. Gu Junqing's expression was slightly calm, and then, as if nothing had happened, he first picked up the long whip that Ye Yun had accidentally dropped on the ground and threw it into his hand. As for the other long whip on the ground, it was still on the ground and no one picked it up.
The man with a nonchalant smile saw that Gu Junqing helped Ye Yun pick up the whip but didn't help him pick it up. He looked hypocritically unhappy and his tone was a bit bossy:
"General Gu, why don't you pick up the whip on the ground for me?"
