The next day, the news about Fan Lanying getting chosen by the princess spread among the girls. But no matter how jealous they felt, they knew that the reason was because of her poor musical skills.

Jun Hua continued to train under the intensive direction of Teacher Xun. A few days after her arrival to the palace, she heard some interesting news. General Lan Ping had returned.
"He came back today?" Jun Hua asked.
Xia nodded. As her Miss was busy studying, she had been gathering news from the palace maids and all. Girls loved to gossip so it didn't take her a long time to collect a lot of information to report to Jun Hua during the nights when she practices embroidery.
"He surely took his time," Jun Hua calculated the time calmly. "With how he fared in the battle, I'm sure he doesn't have any face to meet with the emperor. Tomorrow's morning court is going to be interesting."
