At the encampment Wang Baobao was at, he was extremely shocked when he heard this news. After confirming the casualties on Xu Liewu's side, and learning that even Xu Liewu's leg had been broken, he couldn't help but laugh three times towards the sky, and then brought over a jar of wine to drink to his heart's content.
After all, that person could destroy Xu Liewu, so he could also kill him. Even though he had always been confident, he also knew his own limits. Even though he was not afraid of Xu Liewu and the others, he could not defeat them. Both sides were evenly matched.
Therefore, he immediately sent out his subordinates to search for Fu Cailin's whereabouts, lest he suddenly ambushed them. Of course, he also wanted to win over this Grandmaster. Although the Ruyang Palace had many experts under their command, none of them were truly Grandmasters. Therefore, they had always been wary of Temujin, the Imperial Tutor Ba Siba, and the Evil Master Pang Ban. If they could successfully win over Fu Cailin, then the Ruyang Palace would have more and more bargaining chips in the future.
Prince Zong Zan also laughed out loud in the Tubo Kingdom's guesthouse. "I was worried that Xu Liewu would become my greatest enemy in the betrothal contest. I didn't expect him to have his leg broken. The heavens are really on my side. Hahaha, hahaha ~"
The elegant and quiet Princess of Jincheng frowned slightly. "Zong Zan, you must not be careless. You must know that there are many heroes in the world. Even without Xu Liewu, there are still others."
"That's right. This Penniless Monk took a look at the general assembly. There are still many experts that cannot be underestimated." For example, Xiao Feng, the king of the South Courtyard of Liao, Xuzhu of the Shaolin Temple, and even Zhuang Juxian of the Beggar Sect, their martial arts were far beyond the reach of his prince. However, he knew that Zong Zan was arrogant and conceited, so it was useless to tell him about it. Instead, it would easily provoke Zong Zan, so he did not say it directly.
In any case, the martial arts test was only one aspect of the betrothal contest. There was still the literary test after that. Compared to the betrothal contest, he was more concerned about Fu Cailin from last night.
He had seen the Mongolian masters fight before. Even though he was confident that he was not weaker than any of them, Jiu Mozhi also knew that he would not be able to defeat so many Mongolian masters by himself. Could it be that Korea's Master Bright Sword was much stronger than him?
Jiu Mozhi had always been crazy about martial arts. Whenever he thought that his martial arts were not as good as others, he would feel quite unhappy.
"Mother and the Farsighted King are right. I will definitely treat him carefully in the future." Since both of them had said this, Zong Zan could not argue back. He could only bow while his mouth did not match his heart.
Lowering his head, he happened to see the tip of Princess Jincheng's foot slightly exposed under her skirt. He thought that it was really small and exquisite. If he could hold it in his hand and play with it, he didn't know what kind of pleasure it would bring.
Prince Zong Zan licked his lips and raised his head to look at the young Empress Dowager in front of him. She was demure and elegant, beautiful and dignified, and her every move was very elegant. Her skin was so white and tender that it seemed that water could be squeezed out with a light pinch. She was completely different from the dark skin of ordinary Tubo women, giving him a strange attraction.
"No wonder Zampu dotes on her so much these years, but Zampu's body is about to fail. Once Benwang inherits Zampu's position, he must take this woman into his room and dote on her." Thinking of his fat self, Prince Zongzan suddenly felt that he couldn't wait for Zampu to die.
Seeming to notice something, Princess Jincheng uncomfortably retracted the three-inch golden lotus under her skirt. "I'm a little tired, I'll go back to my room to rest."
She was not used to Prince Zongzan's extremely aggressive eyes, but she had no choice. Having been in Tubo for so many years, she more or less knew their customs. Like many nomadic tribes, because women and population were scarce resources, after the father died, the son could inherit all the concubines of the father except the biological mother. After the elder brother died, the younger brother could even inherit the sister-in-law.
When she first learned about this custom that went against the moral principles, the Princess of the Southern Song Dynasty, who came from a place where etiquette prevailed, was very shocked. She felt that she could not stand all of this, but what could a weak woman like her do?
The only thing she could do now was to pray that Zampu could live a few more years. Unfortunately, Zampu was old and close to the end of his life. What effect could her prayers have?
In the early years, Prince Zongzan still had some scruples, but in the past two years, his eyes had become more and more unbridled, and Wuji was afraid. Thinking of her miserable fate in the future, Princess Jincheng felt sad from the bottom of her heart, but she could do nothing about it. She could only hide in the quilt and cry secretly in the dead of night.
At this time, in the guesthouse of Si Siluo, on the other side of the city, after receiving the report of Prince Zongzan's joy, Si Siluo sneered. "Mud can't help a wall, it's not even worth mentioning."
Beside him, the national master Li Lizun said with a smile, "Great Khan, the more useless this Zongzan is, the more advantageous it is for us. If he is wise and powerful, how can we have the chance to counterattack Tubo?"
"That's true." Si Siluo was overjoyed. "Last night, Mongolia suffered a great disaster, which proves that they are not as invincible as imagined. After I take over Tubo, I can integrate the resources of Tubo and Qinghai, and it will be enough to compete with Mongolia."
Li Lizun said, "Last night, Goryeo, Khwarazmi, and Mongolian guesthouses were attacked one after another. Now Xingqing Prefecture can be said to be in a mess. It's a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters. The plan against Zongzan and Jincheng Princess can also be implemented."
Si Siluo also smiled strangely. "Everything depends on the national master."
Not everyone was happy about what happened to the Mongolian ambassadors last night. In the guesthouse of Dongying, Hidekatsu was panicking. He paced back and forth in the room like an ant on a hot pan. "Oh no, even so many Mongolian masters were killed. Won't we be even more powerless to fight against Fu Cailin?"
He knew that the reason why Mongolia attacked the Goryeo ambassadors was because of the deal he made. In the end, he was the main culprit. Moreover, the murderer of those murders in Goryeo was a Dongying man. How could Fu Cailin let him go?
"That Fu Cailin may not be invincible in the world. If he comes, I want to have a good fight with him." Miyamoto Musashi's dispirited eyes were shining with a strange light. Temple Street
"Nonsense, Shuiyue Sect is the third strongest master in Dongying, second only to the two sword saints. Can you defeat him? Fu Cailin defeated him easily!" Hidekatsu snorted coldly.
"Shuiyue Sect is the third strongest master in Dongying? I don't admit it. "Miyamoto Musashi asked the young man who looked like a rich man beside him," Do you admit it? "
"He is indeed the third strongest in the hearts of most Dongying people." The first half of Sasaki Kojiro's words made Miyamoto Musashi raise his eyebrows, but then he said, "But he hasn't fought with me. I don't think he can defeat me."
Miyamoto Musashi clapped his hands. "That's it. We have two masters who are not inferior to Shuiyue Sect. Fu Cailin won't be good even if he comes."
However, although he was confident, he was not arrogant. Although he didn't think that Shuiyue Sect's martial arts were better than his, he also didn't think that his martial arts were far better than Shuiyue Sect's. Since Fu Cailin could easily defeat Shuiyue Sect, then Fu Cailin's martial arts were most likely higher than his, so he didn't hesitate to think of joining forces with Sasaki Kojiro.
Sasaki Kojiro nodded. He obviously thought the same. Although he had a personal grudge with Miyamoto Musashi, it was more important to resist the enemy in the face of a strong enemy.
In the residence of the Qing Kingdom's diplomatic corps, Nalan Rongruo was warning the girl in front of her, "Dark Cloud Pearl, you should also know that our respective families have lost power in the country, so this time the emperor didn't assign any masters to us, so that Goryeo could bully us. But so many masters of Goryeo were slaughtered. Now the city is very chaotic. We should try not to go out on ordinary days, lest we get into trouble."
"Oh ~" The girl murmured absent-mindedly, but her mind was full of the situation when her big brother saved her. After they parted a few days ago, they hadn't seen each other again. She didn't know where to find him.
In the Dali Hotel, Zhu Danchen was also giving the same warning, "Prince, now the city is very chaotic. You'd better be careful. It's better not to go out on the street."
Although Duan Yu's Six Pulse Magic Sword was powerful, his martial arts foundation was too poor. In addition, the Sword Qi was sometimes not effective. If he met a real master, he would be easily controlled.
"Oh." Duan Yu replied weakly, leaning on the table. At this time, his mind was full of the fairy sister's frown and smile.
"By the way, Prince, you'd better visit Miss Mu when you have time." Zhu Danchen continued.
"Wanqing?" Duan Yu was surprised, "She is now the Empress of Xixia. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to visit her."
Zhu Danchen replied, "Not to mention that you were once friends, even if Miss Mu and Heir Shizi are siblings, Heir Shizi's visit is still reasonable. Presumably, Miss Mu will not refuse. After entering the palace, see if there is an opportunity to see Princess Yinchuan. If you can win her favor in advance, that would be the best. I will have to ask Miss Mu to help me in this matter."
Hearing his utilitarian words, Duan Yu immediately felt disgusted. When he was about to refuse, he suddenly thought of something and asked in surprise, "Does that fairy sister also live in the palace?"
Zhu Danchen frowned and wanted to comfort him. But when he saw the joy on his face, he didn't say anything. "As the old princess of Xixia, she naturally lives in the palace."
"That's good. Let's go to the palace together to see Wanqing." Duan Yu seemed to be on steroids.
At this time, Yelu Qi of Liao was asking Xiao Feng about Fu Cailin's martial arts last night. They had fought with the old man in the mountain and knew the strength of the masters under the command of the Mongolian army. They didn't expect that they would be so easily defeated by Fu Cailin. They were the most shocked.
"The martial arts of the Shuiyue Great Master is very high. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to defeat him in the arena. Of course, I should be able to defeat him in a life-and-death fight, but it will definitely not be as easy as Fu Cailin. Is there really such a terrible martial arts master in Goryeo?" Xiao Feng was lost in thought.
Yelu Qi said, "I have inquired about it. The old man in the mountain and the others were not in the Mongolian army last night."
Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. Otherwise, if Fu Cailin could massacre the Mongolian army under the joint efforts of the old man and the Shuiyue Great Master, I'm afraid it is not an exaggeration to call him the world's number one."
On the other side of the Shaolin Temple, Xuzhu also fell into the same doubt, "Is Fu Cailin's martial arts really that high?" He believed that if he were in Shaolin's shoes, he would never be able to do all that. In the entire Shaolin Temple, perhaps only the Nameless Holy Monk had this ability.
"Xuzhu, you don't have to worry too much. We have no grudges with Goryeo. No matter how high Fu Cailin's martial arts is, it doesn't matter to us. On the contrary, Xuliewu's legs are broken. This time, you have one less strong opponent in this marriage contest," Xuan Ji of the Commandment Yard said.
"Amitabha!" Fang Sheng, who was next to him, called out the name of Buddha. "The Mongolian Embassy has been hit hard, and the prince has also been injured. I'm afraid the world will be in chaos, and I don't know how many people will lose their homes. Moreover, I feel that it is a little inappropriate for Xuzhu to return to secular life and participate in the marriage contest. "
Kong Wen, who was the leader, said, "Ah, Junior Brother, we have no choice but to do this for the people of the world. As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will?
