"So, what did Ding Weixiang tell you that day?"
When Xiao Nanhui opened his eyes, he saw Mo Chunhua doing horse stance and asking questions relentlessly.
"Practice your skills well, and don't always be so curious about Master's affairs."
Xiao Nanhui changed his posture, crossed his legs, took a sip of the still steaming milk tea, and sighed with satisfaction.
"Who wants to recognize you as their master?" Mo Chunhua stood up angrily. "It's been three days, and you're still doing horse stance. Are you kidding me?"
"Three days is nothing? Back then, when I learned Kung Fu from my adoptive father, I practiced horse stance for three months."
She watched calmly as Mo Chunhua turned around twice and then obediently returned to the corner.
Although Mo Chunhua has a bad temper, she is able to endure hardships.
After the agreement was made with Ding Weixiang that day, the matter was reported to the emperor through various channels. The emperor did not object, but only said that Ding Weixiang would resume his martial arts training after he left.
Ding Weixiang only spent three days to reorganize the team and conduct emergency training, which was considered very fast. She had nothing to do, so she just happened to spend some time with Mo Chunhua.
Mo Chunhua was a little rustic, but she was a beauty whose foreign ancestry could be seen from her face. Although she never complained about anything, based on what she saw and heard during the march on the border, one could guess a little about her experience.
The relationship between Nanqiang and Tiancheng had always been strained. Even if a beautiful illegitimate daughter of foreign descent was raised in the general's mansion, life would be difficult. Xiao Nanhui sighed inwardly at her life experience, then thought of himself. He decided to teach her some martial arts in the next few days, to protect her from future bullying and to practice her skills before facing the emperor.
As a result, after only three days, Ding Weixiang had finished sorting out the problem.
Hey, if I tell Mo Chunhua that all her horse stance exercises these days might be in vain, will she jump up and pull her hair?
Xiao Nanhui clicked his tongue, and the milk tea he drank began to taste bitter.
Mo Chunhua on the other side was still unaware of it, and the gossipy heart that had just been suppressed surfaced again.
"Hey, you told me that the emperor wants you to serve him personally, is that true?"
"What do you mean by personal servant?" Xiao Nanhui corrected her wording. "Why should I, a general, do what that maid does? That's called a bodyguard, a personal bodyguard."
"Okay." Mo Chunhua rubbed her thighs with both hands and tilted her head to think for a moment. "I haven't heard that the emperor has ever hired anyone to teach him martial arts before."
Xiao Nanhui moved his ears.
Huh? Really?
She deliberately tried to test him: "Even if you haven't learned martial arts, someone must have taught you horse riding and archery."
"That's not necessarily true. I heard that His Majesty never travels on horseback."
Xiao Nanhui thought about it and it seemed to be true.
From this perspective, her mission this time can be considered a great honor.
The emperor is a true dragon. Does this count as dragon training?
What's so great about teasing a tiger's beard? She is the best among the best, the best among the best!
Thinking of this, she couldn't suppress her pride and almost laughed out loud three times with her hands on her hips.
Ding Weixiang left the camp this morning. She had only been walking for about half an hour, but she already felt the air around her had become lighter.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but imagine the look of the nagging swordsman before he left.
Ding Weixiang usually has a somewhat expressionless face, but this morning he looked a bit worried, which showed that he was extremely worried.
Xiao Nanhui patted his shoulder and told him to relax. The man turned around and spoke for the seventh time, "One more thing."
She took a deep breath and swallowed back the roar that was about to reach her throat.
She had to endure it. Only by enduring this nagging could she quickly get rid of this Fighting Buddha who she could not defeat and could not make to shut up.
Xiao Nanhui coughed lightly to conceal his emotions, then imitated his master by putting on a fake smile. "Lieutenant Ding, please speak."
Ding Weixiang was still worried, not noticing the impatience bubbling in the other man's eyes. He said sternly, "Your Majesty is worth a fortune. When you're giving him instructions, be sure to control your strength and don't hurt him."
How could this be another incident? It was clearly the same incident just now! No, it was three days ago!
She continued to silently recite the mantra of forbearance, and for the seventh time, she replied sincerely, "Of course. Even if I had ten thousand guts, I would never dare to attack Your Majesty."
Ding Weixiang lowered his head and shook his head again: "But in the martial arts arena, it is difficult to guarantee perfection. As the saying goes, fists and feet have no eyes. I am afraid that when the time comes, you will get carried away and forget what I said today."
Xiao Nanhui was about to roll his eyes to relieve his depressed mood, but suddenly an alarm bell went off in his mind and he took a small step back.
Could it be that Ding Weixiang is waiting to find trouble, or has a grudge with the Marquis's Mansion and is waiting to punish her?
"Lieutenant Ding, you are mistaken. I believe I have done my duty to the utmost. However, as martial artists, you and I both know that if you want to learn real skills, you will inevitably suffer a few blows. If Your Majesty wants to chop off my head for this, I would rather not take this job."
She was about to back out, but she was determined in her heart that the other party would not let her quit like this.
As expected, Ding Weixiang didn't say anything for a while, but that familiar expression of wanting to say something but not being able to appeared on his face again.
Xiao Nanhui felt the veins on his forehead throbbing. "Ding Weixiang, do you know how unpleasant things can be sometimes? If you have something to say, just say it. I'm not unreasonable."
However, Ding Weixiang seemed determined not to explain himself. "Master Xiao, don't you have something to hide? Why bother asking so many questions? In short, remember this." His face was filled with sincerity. "Don't let His Majesty think that your actions threaten him. You know, sometimes people's instinctive reactions can be terrifying."
