Outside Xijing's Yongding Gate, a group of 300 cavalrymen welcomed them. The main color of their armor was black, but their arms, shoulders, and ribs were white. When they galloped on their warhorses, they were like swallows flying across the sky.
The leader of the group was a ferocious man. He held a flag with the word 'Truth' written on it. If one looked closely, they would notice that the shape of the word was the outline of a flying swallow.
The cavalrymen charged straight toward the Great Tang diplomatic group, having no intention of reining in their horses at all.
The Great Tang Imperial Guards didn't wait for Li Xiu's orders. Under the command of their commander, they spurred their horses forward to protect the convoy.
Da da da!
The sound of hooves thundered like war drums, knocking on everyone's eardrums. What followed was a uniform clanking sound.
The Flying Swallow Cavalry unsheathed their curved blades.
"Wow, so cool!"
Qin Yaoguang, who was riding on her warhorse, couldn't help but stand up and shield her eyes with her hands.
"What's the meaning of this? Are they trying to intimidate us? "
Helian Beifang licked his lips and gripped his curved blade tightly. He really wanted to face the other party's charge and counterattack!
At the instant when the Flying Swallow Cavalry was about to collide with the Imperial Guards, the cavalrymen shook their reins and spurred their horses to pass by from both sides. Their movements were swift and neat, like a sharp razor cutting through frozen butter.
Only a female general in light armor remained 30 meters away.
These Flying Swallow Cavalry charged past the diplomatic group and each drew a circle around them, returning to the female general's side. Throughout the entire process, there were no noises.
"Elites!"
Li Xiu silently praised, but her face was filled with dissatisfaction. "Is this how King Qi treats his guests?"
"My father is my father, I am me!"
The female general assessed Li Xiu with a few glances before her gaze landed on the convoy, as though she was searching for someone.
"May I know where Great Teacher Sun is? Please come out for a chat! "
This female general who was in her twenties didn't speak loudly, but her beautiful voice rang out clearly in the empty space outside the city.
"Could she be Teacher's die-hard fan?"
Qin Yaoguang was puzzled. Usually, they would meet the leader and vice envoy of the group first, right?
"Very possible!"
Xian Yuwei thought of that female great teacher called Bai Xiqing and wished that she could throw herself at her teacher.
Sun Mo tugged on the reins and rode the horse out of the crowd.
"I'm Sun Mo!"
Sun Mo clasped his fists and surveyed this female general in passing.
Needless to say, she must be the First Princess of Qi Kingdom, the Commanding General of Flying Swallow Army, and Jiang Yuzhen, who had the reputation of being the God of War.
Sun Mo had been in the Nine Provinces for such a long time, and the women he came into contact with were all gentle and virtuous. They were the type that came from wealthy families. Even people like An Xinhui, who had a high status and authority, had a feminine gentleness and charm in their bones.
To put it simply, it could arouse a man's desire to protect her.
Speaking of a domineering personality, Ying Baiwu was definitely at the top. If not, Sun Mo wouldn't call her an iron-headed girl. After she grew up, her template should be someone like Jiang Yuzhen.
Although she was a woman, she had a manly aura!
Jiang Yuzhen was tall and slender. She wore the Flying Swallow Light Armor and a red cloak, which made her look valiant and formidable.
Her facial features were well-defined, her red lips were slightly thin, and her nose was straight. She was very beautiful, but her spirit was overshadowed by her sharp phoenix eyes.
She rode on the horse and didn't move at all. As she looked around, she was like a treasured blade that would be unsheathed at any moment to kill her enemies.
Hearing Sun Mo's reply, Jiang Yuzhen looked over and her eyes suddenly brightened!
Mn, it was as the rumors said. He was an incomparably handsome man!
Jiang Yuzhen's gaze slid from Sun Mo's face to his chest and landed on his school emblem.
"Aren't you a 4-star great teacher?"
Jiang Yuzhen frowned slightly. There were five stars on Sun Mo's school emblem.
"Over a month ago, my teacher went to take the spirit rune grandmaster exam and also obtained the 5-star great teacher title in passing."
Qin Yaoguang took the initiative to talk. "Hello princess, I'm Teacher's personal disciple, Qin Yaoguang!"
"Passing? Then why didn't you take the 6-star great teacher title in passing? "
Jiang Yuzhen's lips twitched, feeling that Qin Yaoguang's words were too frivolous. Although she wasn't a great teacher, she had studied in the Westshore Military School. Hence, she had seen how difficult it was for those young great teachers to take the 5-star exam.
Of course, she didn't deny that Sun Mo was very impressive.
"If there wasn't any delay from the Five Countries Mock Battle, my teacher would already be participating in the 6-star great teacher examination in the Impasse Prison!"
Qin Yaoguang chuckled. "Your highness, don't look at people through the crack of the door. The hard conditions to take the 6-star examination are to comprehend 18 great teacher halos and grasp two grandmaster-grade secondary occupations. My teacher has long reached these conditions."
"Yaoguang, don't argue."
Sun Mo didn't like such disputes. "Your highness, is something the matter?"
Li Xiu was a woman who liked to plan before taking action. Before she understood Jiang Yuzhen's intentions, she didn't wish to appear.
Han Cangshui couldn't wait for Sun Mo to be unlucky.
As for the others, other than Crown Prince Li Xuan, they weren't qualified to talk.
"Quite a beautiful woman!"
Li Xuan silently admired Jiang Yuzhen. She and his younger sister Ziqi were of the same standard, but their temperaments had their own merits. It was hard to tell which one was better.
(However, I like this kind of wild girl!)
After seeing so many gentle and obedient girls, Li Xuan wanted to have a taste of wildness. Moreover, this was the eldest princess of the Qi Country. It would be more worth recalling after he conquered her.
"Tonight, let's have a meal together at the River Suppression Inn!"
Jiang Yuzhen spoke.
(Huh?)
The group of people was stunned.
(Given your aggressive attitude, aren't you here to denounce me?)
(Why did it become a meal?)
(Most importantly, you are the famous Princess Yuzhen of the Qi Country. Is it really good to be so casual?)
Sun Mo was also stunned by this unexpected move. His first reaction was that he had encountered a food scammer. There was no solution to it. In the modern era, he had suffered a loss when he went on blind dates.
The more proactive a woman was, the more dangerous she would be!
(Such a beautiful princess who is also an opponent in the Five Countries Mock Battle, what reason does she have to treat me to a meal?)
(Consult me on a question?)
(Given her status, the great teachers of the Westshore Military School would definitely take the initiative to answer her questions!)
(Plastic surgery?
She's very beautiful, the kind that would be able to receive a lot of tips after a night of livestreaming.)
(Could it be that there's something difficult to say that needs my ancient massaging technique to resolve?)
"What's your answer?"
Jiang Yuzhen furrowed her brows and grumbled in a low voice. "Why are you dawdling around? Not like a man!"
"Sorry, I'm not free!"
Sun Mo rejected.
The gazes of the Flying Swallow Cavalry immediately turned sharp. They stared at Sun Mo, wanting nothing more than to chop off his head.
Jiang Yuzhen wanted to curse, but her red lips opened and closed a few times. She then changed her words. "Alright, maybe my attitude wasn't too good and caused you to misunderstand. I'll say it again. Tonight, River Suppression Inn, I'll treat you to a meal!"
This time around, the Great Tang's diplomatic group was dumbfounded.
"What does this Flying Swallow General want to do? Could it be that she wants to throw herself at Great Teacher Sun? "
"What a joke. She is the number one princess of the Qi Country. She even has a chance to ascend to the throne!"
"What do you mean by this? Could it be that Great Teacher Sun is not worthy of her? "
The attendants whispered to each other.
"There's nothing that can't be said. If you have anything to say, just say it here!"
Sun Mo didn't want to attend the banquet anymore. "Also, I need to make something clear. Great Teacher Han is the main envoy and the eldest princess is the vice envoy."
Jiang Yuzhen looked toward Han Cangshui.
"Your highness!"
Han Cangshui clasped his hands. His smile was like the spring breeze. After all, beautiful women would always be able to receive kindness.
"Did the Tang King's brain spoil after eating pills to extend his life? Or could it be that he is too arrogant and thinks that an 8-star great teacher would be able to lead you guys to the championship? "
Jiang Yuzhen coldly snorted.
Han Cangshui's expression immediately froze as though he had been frozen for an entire night. He didn't expect that the other party wouldn't give him any face at all.
It was one thing for the other party to ignore his greeting, but she even publicly insulted him.
"Princess Yuzhen, is this how your Qi Country treats its guests?"
Li Xuan naturally had to stand out and speak up for his teacher.
"Li Xuan, if you aren't the crown prince of the Great Tang, you wouldn't be qualified to talk to me!"
Jiang Yuzhen glanced at the crown prince and then looked toward Li Ziqi. "You are Li Ziqi, right? Seeing is believing. It's nice to meet you! "
"Eh!"
Li Ziqi felt a little awkward. The other party was very polite to her, but he was rude to her elder brother, her father, and the crown prince's tutor. What should she do?
"Eldest martial sister, don't be fooled. She wants to stir up conflict within our group!"
Lu Zhiruo was like a wise person who had seen through a conspiracy. She had a proud expression on her face as she reminded Li Ziqi.
"..."
Li Ziqi didn't want to say anything. No matter what, Jiang Yuzhen was a military god who had fought in many wars. Would she use such crude methods?
Moreover, when the little sunny egg first met her, she felt that Jiang Yuzhen was someone who disdained scheming. She simply looked down on Li Xuan.
"What do you mean?"
Li Xuan was angered and anxious. His face turned red.
"Alright, I might have been rude. Great Teacher Sun, you should prepare for the battle first. When it's convenient, come to the princess residence to look for me. I'll be waiting for you at any time!"
After Jiang Yuzhen spoke, she spurred her horse and left.
The Flying Swallow Army followed closely behind.
"What does she mean? Could it be that she has taken a fancy to Teacher? "
Qin Yaoguang's eyes flashed with curiosity.
No one could answer her.
"Even if she is, I'll mess things up for her!"
The little sunny egg swore in her heart. (Teacher is mine. No one can think about snatching him away.)
After the delegation entered the city, they went to the third most luxurious hotel in Xijing.
It wasn't that Li Xiu couldn't afford to stay in the best restaurant, but those two buildings had already been reserved by the Great Xia and Great Chu diplomatic missions.
The officials of the Qi Kingdom had actually arranged lodgings for the various envoys, but no one went to stay there for fear of information being leaked.
The princes and princesses had to prepare for war, and the preparatory group wasn't allowed to go out. However, Sun Mo's Calabash Brothers had nothing to do. Hence, other than Li Ziqi, all of them went to the Westshore Military School for a tour.
He saw many people gathered at the school gate.
"The Westshore Military Academy sure is arrogant, actually forbidding visitors!"
"The school is governed by military rules, so it's understandable that they have such a rule!"
"Then didn't I come here for nothing?"
Because of the Five Nation Mock Battles, many wealthy merchants and wealthy guests came to Xijing. Westshore Military School, one of the Nine Greats, was naturally an important tourist attraction, but they were not allowed to enter.
What a disappointment!
"What should we do?"
Helian Beifang was very disappointed. He liked military affairs and wanted to enter to take a look.
"I'll go!"
Qin Yaoguang took on everything and ran to the guard room.
