What a handsome young man from the East.
Polite, gentlemanly, charming, and elegant.
One glance and you'll be instantly captivated.
The Western queen stared blankly at those smiling, almond-shaped eyes for a long time, her ears turning even redder, and she forgot to reply for a moment.
Si Jin paused, then asked: Had he spoken too quickly, and the Queen couldn't understand?
Si Jin smiled and simply repeated it in English.
The Queen's ears turned even redder, and she quickly regained her composure, saying, "I enjoyed it very much."
(I love it very much.)
After the Queen finished speaking, Ning Sizhen's expression turned even uglier.
Ning Sijin, that brute, has never entered the Imperial Academy since he took command.
How can someone write such good calligraphy?
How could someone speak Western languages so fluently?
Si Jin lowered her head and replied, "It's my pleasure to be loved by you."
(It is my honor to receive your praise.)
Having said that, he lowered his hand, picked up the scepter, and prepared to return to his position.
The Western Queen then noticed the way Si Jin was walking. Feeling sorry for him, she couldn't help but call out to him, "Sir, I have a very good surgeon in my regiment who can treat you."
(My mission includes a highly skilled surgeon who can treat you.)
Nangong Liuer, who was translating beside the emperor, was stunned, and her gaze toward Si Jin became even more vicious.
The doctors in the mission were the Queen's most trusted royal physicians.
Despite the many years of exchanges between the two countries and her own years as a translator, she had never seen the Queen show such favor to any Yong Dynasty person.
The first time they relented was because of... Ning Sijin!
But the system clearly states that Ning Sijin is a villain from another dimension!
She gains points and buys ultra-modern goods from the system's shop, all by bringing down Ning Sijin!
Is this villain, destined to be defeated by the unlucky Ning Sizhen, really worthy of being bestowed a doctor by the Queen?!
The assembled officials were also slightly shaken. Watching Si Jin bow her head to thank the Queen, they became even more certain that the struggle for the throne had truly ushered in a new turning point.
In the past six months, the Fourth Prince has been constantly consolidating his power base.
Now, with his many skills, he has gained the favor of the Western Queen, and his ascension to the throne is imminent.
Seeing the reverent looks the officials gave Si Jin, Ning Si Zhen was so angry he almost ground his teeth to powder.
After finally getting through the gift-giving ceremony, everyone moved to the martial arts arena in the center of the palace to watch the performances prepared by the two countries.
As he left, Ning Sizhen angrily snapped, "Look at this! What is this? Huh? Ning Sijin can only write a few words and speak a few words of Western language, yet he's practically become the focus of attention for the entire court. Is this what you meant by embarrassing him?!"
Seeing Si Jin so full of vigor, Nangong Changli's expression was noticeably less relaxed and pleasant than the night before.
But it's okay.
He patted Ning Sizhen on the shoulder: "During the intermission of the performance, there will be Western warriors sparring with our warriors, including an archery contest."
"Greem, the greatest warrior of the West, has long been infatuated with my sister. My sister had already told him to deliberately shoot the arrow astray and pierce Ning Sijin's neck!"
Ning Sizhen was even angrier upon hearing this: "What do you mean he's infatuated with Liu'er? Nangong Liu'er is my future queen consort, he..."
"Liu'er likes you, but she's just using that Golem. Don't get excited. Ning Sijin will get what's coming to her later."
After comforting Ning Sizhen, the two continued walking together.
Because Si Jin was carrying a cane, she had difficulty moving around and fell behind.
They were stopped by the young master of Beitang.
