The Great Tang's envoy group was led by Han Cangshui, who was in charge of commanding the five countries. The deputy was Eldest Princess Li Xiu, who was in charge of handling miscellaneous matters as well as diplomatic issues.
Sun Mo became one of the three envoys and was known as the number three character in the envoy group. However, all the princes and princesses knew that this title wasn't pleasant to the ears and didn't have any real authority.
Other than Li Ziqi, Sun Mo probably wouldn't be able to command anyone else.
"Li Yingqi is too much of a bully!"
In the carriage, Ying Baiwu felt indignant, feeling that Sun Mo was looking down on her teacher.
"Baiwu, 6-star great teachers might have an undeserved reputation, but there are no noobs among 7-star and above great teachers. Moreover, Han Cangshui is an 8-star great teacher and has the name of an alchemy saint!"
Qin Yaoguang persuaded her martial sister to calm down.
"That's right. The emperor's family depends on Han Cangshui's alchemy pills to prolong their lifespans. Even if Teacher's standard is higher, he wouldn't dare to use it. If not, how would he have the face to ask Han Cangshui for alchemy pills in the future?"
Tantai Yutang explained. For a group like this, all sorts of benefits would be considered. It wasn't that the strongest could become the group leader.
"Then what if he loses the debate?"
Xianyu Wei was worried.
"Naturally, Han Cangshui will bear the responsibility!"
Tantai Yutang shrugged.
"But our teacher is so famous. He would definitely be implicated, right?"
Xianyu Wei's expression was heavy.
"Not only so, Ziqi might also be considered a fake!"
Helian Beifang felt a headache. "The most depressing thing is that if Han Cangshui loses, he might push the blame and say that Teacher interfered with him, causing him to be unable to command. At that time, Teacher wouldn't be able to explain himself."
"Then let's not talk too much!"
Xianyu Wei suggested.
"Do you think that's possible?"
The sickly invalid chortled. "Han Cangshui can win because of his command. If the situation isn't good, Teacher would surely give him some suggestions, right? As long as Teacher speaks, it would be considered an interference! "
"Sigh, it's a dead end!"
Lu Zhiruo shook her head and sighed. Li Ziqi couldn't reject such a debate. Otherwise, her reputation in the country would be gone.
"Cough, I have an idea!"
Qin Yaoguang smiled cunningly. When her senior brothers and sisters looked over, she lowered her voice and said, "We can poison Han Cang or use some small tricks. Anyway, we just have to make him sick for a period of time."
"Lousy idea!"
Jiang Leng, who liked silence, spat out two words.
"That's right. You're taking the initiative to hand over your weakness to them!"
The sickly invalid felt that he could either give up or kill Han Cangshui.
"Let's not worry too much. What if everyone performs well and wins?"
Xian Yuwei changed her attitude: "After all, Big Senior Sister is very powerful!"
"Do you know about the other Prince Regiments?"
Qin Yaoguang asked.
The grassland girl shook her head.
"Grand Xia's crown prince, Xia Taikang, is a top graduate of the Skyraise Academy. Although he isn't a great teacher, he's proficient in the four arts, chess, poetry, painting, and literature. His outstanding performance caused him to be known as the most outstanding successor in Grand Xia's history."
Qin Yaoguang broke the news, "He has already started to supervise the country. For some small matters, Emperor Xia let Xia Taikang decide on his own."
"Ah? Emperor Xia, aren't you afraid that the Crown Prince won't be able to escape? "
Helian Beifang felt a little curious. Usually, emperors would place great importance on authority. Unless they were old or seriously ill, only then would they hand over a portion of their authority.
"Emperor Xia had very few children to begin with, and all of them died young. In the end, only Xia Taikang survived. Hence, Emperor Xia dotes on him a lot."
Qin Yaoguang loved to collect all sorts of news and gossip the most. "In any case, among the crown princes of the various countries in the Central Plains, Xia Taikang is number one!"
Si ~
Was he so strong?
Xian Yuwei was shocked.
"Then what's Big Senior Sister's ranking?"
Lu Zhiruo asked anxiously.
"In terms of beauty, she's ranked in the top three. In terms of talent, ever since she was rejected by Secondary Saint Zhou, she became the laughing stock of the royal family. Luckily, she had a teacher to guide her and helped her become the youngest great teacher. Now, her fame is within the top ten."
Qin Yaoguang had only heard this from others.
"Then there's the eldest princess of Qi Country, Jiang Yuzhen. She freely studied in the Westshore Military School and learned a lot of skills. Her literary attainments might be a little lacking, but her military strategies are definitely one in a million. The headmaster of the Westshore Military School once said that if Jiang Yuzhen continued on, she might become a military god!"
"Military god?"
When the Calabash Brothers heard this term, all of them were extremely shocked.
In the history of the Great Tang, only Li Jing was qualified to be called a military god. But in the entire history of the Nine Provinces, there weren't even ten military gods.
"When Jiang Yuzhen was 15 years old, she heard that the borders were extremely cold and had been harassed by bandits for a long period of time. Hence, she secretly ran over, recruited strong youths, and formed an army. She personally trained them and in the end, she only used seven months to quell the troubles at the borders. She even personally beheaded the three leaders of the largest group of bandits."
Qin Yaoguang continued to expose, "This army is known as the Flying Swallow Army. Right now, it's Jiang Yuzhen's personal army and has followed her to fight in the south and the north, wiping out all the bandits in the country. It can be said that the Qi Country is the most peaceful country among all the countries in the Nine Provinces."
"Is it so fierce?"
Xian Yuwei gulped down a mouthful of saliva, feeling that it was very terrifying.
Helian Beifang clenched his fists tightly. If there was a chance, he must definitely spar with her.
"The crown prince of the Qi Country is still young and is trash. Therefore, many people say that Jiang Yuzhen might become the first female emperor in the history of the Qi Country."
Qin Yaoguang was envious. "That's the highest position!"
"Does she have any weaknesses?"
The sickly invalid was very interested in this Jiang Yuzhen.
"Does she look like a tomboy? It's said that she doesn't like luxurious clothing and jewelry. She eats and dresses with the soldiers. "
Qin Yaoguang crunched the pear blossom candy in her mouth. "The Qi King once chose several talented people to be her matchmaker. In the end, Jiang Yuzhen beat them up so badly that they fled like rats."
"Jiang Yuzhen said that if one wants to marry her, they must win against her on the battlefield!"
"Continue. What about the crown prince of the Chu Country?"
The sickly invalid urged.
"The crown prince, Xiang Zhao, likes women, especially those with slender waists. It's said that he often puts on makeup in private and is a little effeminate. Naturally, I've never seen it before!"
Qin Yaoguang smiled. "He should be the character who poses the least threat!"
Xiang Zhao was the only son of the Chu King. Hence, even if he was rotten to the core, the throne would still be his.
"The crown prince of Great Wei, Wei Wuan, is a great teacher and graduated from Jixia Learning Palace. This person is truly knowledgeable. It's said that when he was eight years old, he had memorized all the books in Jixia Learning Palace. He has a photographic memory and can multitask!"
Qin Yaoguang looked at Li Ziqi. "He should be your old enemy!"
"From the looks of it, other than Xiang Zhao, that trash Li Xuan wouldn't be able to win against anyone else?"
Ying Baiwu kneaded her forehead. Her competitive spirit was the strongest and she looked down on trash the most.
"Baiwu, please be more respectful to my father and elder brother!"
Li Ziqi was helpless and persuaded.
In order to get used to the environment of Xijing earlier, Li Xiu got the diplomatic group to travel at full speed. They only spent half a month and arrived at Xijing.
An unexpected major character welcomed them at the city gate.
