After seeing Xiao Cui come in person, Tianqi knew that Sikong Qing had assigned her personal maid to come to look for him, and there must be something urgent, so he dispelled the idea of wandering around and said, "Miss Cui'er, since Miss Cui is looking for me, now I will go back with you." ”

After speaking, he walked towards the Protector General's Mansion, followed by Cui'er.

And the two people who had been following Tianqi left in a hurry when they saw him, and they didn't continue to chase him, because they recognized the maid just now, which was the personal maid of Situ Fan's daughter, and knew that they had no chance to teach Tianqi a lesson today, so they stomped their feet hard, and after spitting a mouthful of phlegm, they said: "This kid is really lucky, he was saved by this maid and avoided a beating, or not, although he got rid of it for a while, he couldn't get rid of it for a lifetime." Brother Zhou, now we continue to squat and look for opportunities to teach him a lesson. ”

"Good," the other chimed in. After saying that, the two also disappeared into the street.

Tianqi faintly felt that something important must have happened, so he quickened his pace and walked quickly towards the General's Mansion, leaving Xiaocui far behind.

Soon, Tianqi hurried back to the General's Mansion and hurriedly walked towards the hall, but as soon as he arrived at a rockery, he heard the voices of two women coming from the front, so Tianqi stopped and looked forward.

In the clear water and green willows, two figures came into Tianqi's eyes, looking carefully, Tianqi's heart jumped, one of the two was Mo Jie'er, and the other had never met.

At this time, the woman she had never met was holding Mo Jie'er's hair and said, "Jie'er, Murong Hao is young and promising, among the young talents in Dragon City, Xiu Wei is enough to rank in the top three, and he is a person who can be entrusted for life, what else do you have to hesitate." ”

After the woman finished speaking, Mo Jie'er showed an angry expression and said: "Sister Qing'er, how can you say that, you know Murong Hao's personality, he wanders in the fireworks and willow alleys every day, indulging in wine, as for his cultivation, he is completely cultivated under the rich resources of the Hou Ye Mansion, and he is an out-and-out womanizer, a gentleman!"

Tianqi hidden in the rockery, after listening, vaguely knew the identity of the woman, it should be Situ Fan's daughter, Situ Qing.

"Men are all the same, it's their nature to be, and there's no way to change it. ”

"However, I don't have any feelings for Murong Hao, and I ......"

"Silly sister, don't you understand, the way to govern the country is to know checks and balances, your marriage to Murong Hao is the decision of the lord of the country, and it is the key to check and balance the relationship between my general's mansion and the prime minister. Although I am the daughter of the general who protects the country, I still have to match you and Murong Hao, because in this way will the lord of the country feel at ease, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will be at ease. You must understand that as royal nobles and enjoy fine clothes and food, we must make the necessary sacrifices for this. ”

"No, I won't say yes, I already have feelings for other people. ”

After Mo Jie'er said this, Situ Qing immediately showed a serious expression: "I have also heard a thing or two about what happened in the warped jungle, and I know that Tianqi of that escort team takes good care of you, do you really have feelings for him?"

Seeing Situ Qing suddenly ask, Mo Jie'er's face instantly turned red, very shy, but she still nodded lightly.

Seeing Mo Jie'er admit it, Situ Qing showed a surprised expression, and immediately said: "Sister, you can't be confused by him, that Tianqi, what can he compare with Murong Hao? Murong Hao, as the son of the Hou Ye, will inherit his father's position as the Hou Ye in the future, and he has an extraordinary temperament and is handsome. The most powerful thing is that he has reached the fifth rank of martial arts, how many people can compare with the younger generation? That Tianqi, whose identity is unknown, was just a waste that no one wanted when he entered the General's Mansion, a beggar begging on the streets. Although he has now entered the General's Mansion and his cultivation is not bad, he has always been a guard guarding the door. He doesn't deserve you!"

Tianqi in the distance, after hearing Situ Qing finish speaking, two cold lights appeared in his eyes, and anger appeared in his heart, it turned out that in their eyes, he was just a beggar, a waste, and a guard guarding the door.

Seeing Situ Qing commenting on Tianqi like this, Mo Jie'er turned her face away from her and stopped talking.

Situ Qing also realized that what she said had stimulated Mo Jie'er, and she didn't continue to talk about this topic, but changed her words: "Sister, now our current important thing is to deal with the task of the secret decree of the lord of the country, as for the matter of Tianqi, when this incident is over, after my father comes back, I will ask my father to find a military position in the frontier and transfer him out of Dragon City, so that you will forget it after a long time." ”

Mo Jie'er still didn't argue about anything, but turned around and said, "It's still important that the lord of the country explains, let's handle this matter first." Presumably, Tianqi and Xiaocui are also coming back, so I'll wait for them in the hall first. With that, he walked in the direction of the hall.

Watching Mo Jie'er walk away and slowly disappear from sight, Situ Qing showed a faint murderous aura, and said: "I don't allow anyone to threaten the stability of my Huaxia Kingdom, if he can, then I will not hesitate to wipe him out." Then he walked down the hall as well.

Seeing that the two of them have disappeared, Tianqi behind the rockery has mixed feelings in his heart, in fact, he has already had a good impression of Mo Jie'er, and today he knows that Mo Jie'er also has a good impression of him, and he was happy for a while, but he didn't know until today that in Situ Qing's eyes, he was just a guard guarding the door, a waste who would be wiped out at any time if he blocked the interests of the country.

Then he looked at the sword pattern in his right hand, and thought to himself, "Waste, it looks like I'm going to slap you in the face again!"

After walking for a short time, they came to the hall, and Mo Jie'er and Situ Qing were already waiting here at this time.

As soon as he entered the hall and saw the second daughter in front of him, Tianqi lost his mind for a moment. Fang was at the rockery, because of the distance, he could only see the general outline of his body, but at this time, he looked carefully, and the second daughter was so beautiful.

Mo Jie'er is full of enthusiasm, bright eyes and white teeth, and at first glance there is a natural sense of intimacy, as enthusiastic as fire; Situ Qing, cold and beautiful, with a pair of red phoenix eyes, with her arrogant temperament, gives people a kind of amazing like ice.

When Mo Jie'er saw Tianqi, her originally expressionless face instantly became happy, and she stepped forward and pointed at Situ Qing and said, "Tianqi, this is General Situ's beloved daughter Situ Qing, Sister Qing'er, this is the Tianqi of the escort team!"

Tianqi had already adjusted his mentality when he entered the hall, and said with a smile: "Miss Situ is really as beautiful as a fairy, it is really my honor to join Miss Situ's escort!"

Situ Qing also changed his previous dislike for Tianqi, and said: "Long before my father went to the warped jungle, I heard that Tianqi Gongzi was talented, and he already had the spirit of a strong man at a young age. ”

Hearing Situ Qing praise herself like this, Tianqi's heart felt a burst of disgust, and she was worthy of scolding her for being hypocritical, but she couldn't show too much on her lips: "Miss Situ praised her, I don't know if there is anything important for Miss to call me back in a hurry?"

Seeing Tianqi asking, Situ Qing also saved too much greetings, and said directly: "I guess you already know that the envoy of the Lancang Kingdom suddenly came to pay tribute." ”

"I already knew that, and I was there when they entered the city. ”

Seeing that Tianqi had already understood this matter, Situ Qing did not explain too much about it, and continued: "Lancang has always been a vassal state of our Huaxia Kingdom, and every year they will pay tribute to seek our protection, but in recent years, they have not paid tribute for three consecutive years, and the lord of the country has also sent envoys to urge, but every time the envoys are perfunctory by them, each time they say that the national strength is weak, and there is no financial resources to pay tribute, so let the grace period be limited." So the matter has been delayed until now. ”

"Now my father is leading most of the masters of Dragon City to the Twisted Jungle, and they have suddenly come to pay tribute, combined with their movements in the past few years, what must be the purpose of this time. According to the news from the palace, the team that came this time also brought several young talents, and we also know something about these people, they have been concentrating on cultivation in recent years, and they have made rapid progress, and the strongest of them has reached the fifth order of martial arts, and they are infinitely close to the sixth order of martial artists, and they will break through at any time. With their cultivation speed, looking at the entire Huaxia Kingdom, there are only a few geniuses and demons who can compete with him. ”

After Situ Qing finished speaking, she looked at Mo Jie'er. Mo Jie'er got up and continued.

"Not long after the mission entered the Imperial City, my father and Hou Ye received a secret decree from the lord of the country, and the secret decree of the Chinese lord had already guessed the purpose of their trip, they wanted to take advantage of the absence of most of the young masters in Dragon City, come to make trouble, and rely on a few people who have risen sharply in cultivation to challenge the young talents of Dragon City, if they win, they will slap Huaxia Kingdom in the face. If they lose, they have nothing to lose. Therefore, the lord of the country specially told our two families to come to Sister Qing'er to discuss countermeasures. ”

Between the lines of the second daughter's words, Tianqi had already understood the purpose of calling him back, and took the opportunity to ask, "Then can I help at this time?"

"Since my father took away most of the young talents, there are only a few people left in Dragon City, and now only Murong Hao and Jie'er's brother can play, but there should be three people in the team they come to challenge, so there will be one less person to deal with, so I specially came to ask Tianqi Gongzi's opinion, whether he can play, of course, if it is inconvenient, don't force it. ”

After Situ Qing finished speaking, she remembered the conversation she had with Mo Jie'er earlier, and a crazy decision appeared in her heart: "Miss rest assured, if you can serve the country, Tianqi will not shirk, and you will do your best tomorrow!"

Seeing that Tianqi responded, Situ Qing smiled and continued: "Tianqi Gongzi doesn't need to be nervous, Murong Hao and Mo Jie'er's brother will already win tomorrow, you just need to hold on to the stage for more time and don't lose too much." ”

It turned out that Situ Qing was not optimistic about Tianqi in his heart, but just regarded him as cannon fodder. Despite this, Tianqi replied, "Yes!"

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Situ Qing and Mo Jie'er left the hall. Before leaving, Mo Jie'er waved her hand at Tianqi and said, "Have a good rest, and strive for a good result tomorrow!"

After saying that, she thought to herself, "If you can make a splash, maybe we really have hope." ”

After the second daughter, Tianqi returned to the room and began to cultivate again, and did not go to bed until late at night.

......

After one night, Situ Qing, Tianqi and the people from the Protector General's Mansion also went to the palace.

In the palace, the envoy of the Lancang Kingdom officially paid tribute to the Huaxia Kingdom, and after completing the contribution ceremony, the state banquet also began.

In the splendid hall, singing and dancing, rich in wine and food, the ministers of Huaxia and the envoys of Lancang sent words of congratulations.

After three rounds of wine, the atmosphere in the entire hall reached the most **, at this time, one of the envoys of the Lancang Kingdom suddenly stood up, and said to Ye Wuchen, the lord of the Huaxia country on the dragon chair: "The previous lord unified the five countries a hundred years ago and established the vast Huaxia country. But all I see now is the music of the courtesans, the sound of the dance. Now that the whole country is indulging in this, it is not forgetting the last teachings of the first emperor!"

After the envoy finished speaking, the ministers on the other side saw that he had made such a wild remark for the first time, and they all shouted:

"Presumptuous, you dare to say such a ridiculous thing, it's really a big rebellion!"

"It's nonsense, lord, this son actually insulted me Huaxia, please give an order to drag this rebel out and behead him. ”

......

In the face of the expected provocation, Ye Wuchen was not furious, nor did he mean to punish him, but smiled slightly, and said to the envoy: "Since the Qing family said this, there must be some high opinion, why don't you say it." ”

Seeing Ye Wuchen speak in person, the envoy did not panic, arched his hands, and said: "Lord of the country, what Wei Chen said just now did not mean to offend Shengwei, but I thought that the lord of the country had already been tired of watching the sheng song and man dance, why not change to other ways of appreciation? ”

After listening, Ye Wudao's smile became even stronger, and he said: "Sure enough, it's a good proposal, I have long heard that although the Lancang Country is located in a desolate place in the extreme east, it has produced many talents in recent years, and now our country's strength can be compared to some big countries." I don't know if what I've heard is true, but it just opened my eyes today. ”

Seeing that Ye Wudao agreed so easily, the envoy was overjoyed, and then waved his hand to the envoy, and the three young men stood up and walked behind the envoy.

These four people walked steadily, their eyes were like torches, their breathing was steady, and their arms were full of explosive power, and they were masters of the hands at first glance.

The envoy pointed to the three people behind him and said, These three are relatively good young people in my Lancang country, and I specially came to ask the young talents of your country for advice this time.

After the envoy finished speaking, the leader of the three said: "Please rest assured, the four of us will not hurt the genius of your country! When speaking, he deliberately said the word genius very seriously.

The envoy sang and harmonized with the three people who came forward, and his words were very arrogant, clearly expressing that in the Lancang Kingdom, ordinary masters can beat the genius of the Huaxia Kingdom.
