After kicking away the sword, Gu Xin didn't give anyone a chance to react and attacked again.
Now that they are both unarmed, Gu Xin is definitely no weaker than Prince Tian Tian in terms of strength, and she is even better in terms of agility.
Just now, it was Prince Tiantian who used his soft sword to force Gu Xin back step by step; now, Gu Xin is using her fists to force Prince Tiantian back step by step.
Gu Xin only used seven-tenths of her strength.
Prince Tiantian felt a bit strained. He was used to using a soft sword and rarely fought bare-handed like this. Moreover, Gu Xin's moves were so varied that he couldn't get used to them at all.
"Tsk, I knew it! When did Xin Xin get beaten so badly that she had to retreat? Turns out she had to deal with the other person's sword first! This Prince Tianji is completely different when he uses a sword than when he doesn't! How did Xin Xin figure that out?" the emperor muttered to himself.
No one answered him. After all, the only people sitting with him were the Empress and his children. The children didn't know how Gu Xin had figured it out, and they were engrossed in watching. Who had time to pay attention to the Emperor?
"Pfft!" Suddenly, Prince Tiantian was kicked in the face by Gu Xin and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Good!" Lu Zheng shouted.
The people of Da Zhou and the people of the Western Lands: "..."
How dare you shout like that? Didn't you see the princess being forced to the doorway? You're really good at keeping your composure.
"Don't hit someone in the face!" Princess Long Zhu'er of Nanlin exclaimed.
Her voice wasn't too loud or too soft; anyone nearby could hear it.
With a translator present, everyone quickly understood what she was saying.
"I'm sorry, Princess Zhu'er. I'm different from others; I like to slap people in the face when I hit them!" Gu Xin replied to Long Zhu'er in the Nanlin dialect.
Long Zhu'er was taken aback, raised an eyebrow, and asked the messenger, "She can actually speak the Southern Language?"
The messenger said helplessly, "Princess, this princess of the Great Zhou not only speaks the language of Nanlin, Dongzhe, and Jiacang, but more importantly, she understands the languages of the tribes in the west."
Princess Nanlin's eyes widened in surprise: "You understand everything? Does she spend all her time learning other languages? Is she really that bored?"
General Shi Mu, who was not far away, added, "There are people in this world who have this talent, and Princess Xin Xin is one of them. Long Zhu'er, don't underestimate anyone. You must know that there are people beyond people."
Princess Nanlin turned her head and glared at General Shi Mu: "This princess doesn't need you to teach me how to behave."
General Shi Mu smiled disdainfully: "This general is not one to meddle in other people's business. I also believe that someone will teach you a lesson."
Princess Nanlin glared at General Shi Mu.
Turning her head, she saw Lu Zheng and his group at their table.
Her attention was focused on the princes and princesses of the Western Lands, as well as the princes and princesses of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and she didn't notice Lu Zheng and the other two, who were her subjects.
It has to be said that the sight of Peng Ze, Xue Qianyu, and Lu Zheng sitting there was quite a spectacle.
The three were young, handsome, and had similar demeanors, but upon closer inspection, they were different.
The three of them were all rather low-key. Although they were seated in the front, they hadn't spoken or interacted with anyone else. They were just eating and drinking by themselves, chatting idly.
Princess Nanlin asked the messenger, "Who are those people at that table?"
The messenger looked over and saw the three of them. Then, seeing the look in his princess's eyes, his heart skipped a beat.
