This Yao Guang sword is a famous sword. It is said that it was forged by forty-nine people, and there is only one in the world.
"Indeed, I obtained this sword by chance a while ago, so I decided to give it to Rou'er."
Wen Yinzheng also watched with great interest. Song Tangxue was very bold, but if she lost face in front of so many people, it would be a disgrace to the entire Yongfeng Kingdom. Rou'er's strength has increased greatly now, and no matter how powerful she is, she will definitely not be able to compare.
Even Xie Qianzhong was sweating bullets; if things went wrong, he would be the first to rush up and rescue the person.
Song Tangxue barely dodged the first few moves without ever making a move, which made people think that she didn't know martial arts and was just angry for a moment.
Just as Rou'er lowered her guard, Song Tangxue suddenly made a move, taking out a dagger from her sleeve and holding it to Rou'er's neck. If she moved any closer, she would kill her.
Song Tangxue knew that her strength was no match for Rou'er's, so she used some methods, always retreating to advance, so that Rou'er would think that she did not know martial arts, and thus the flaw would be exposed.
"This is impossible!" Rou'er shook her head repeatedly. She practiced martial arts every single day, how could she not even beat her?!
This is definitely fake; Song Tangxue used underhanded methods to win against me!
"Now that I have won, may I ask Your Majesty to hear my words?"
Song Tangxue breathed a sigh of relief. She had made the right bet. Just now, she had said that Rou'er was not underestimating her opponent and that she would definitely not win.
"Go ahead and tell me."
“We are indeed from Yongfeng Kingdom. Even I thought Lingfeng Kingdom was a great power before, but recently we have been treated unfairly here. For example, when I just won against Miss Rou’er, many people thought it was just a coincidence.”
They are arrogant and keep saying that martial arts are the highest virtue, but that's just an excuse for them to look down on others.
"Don't forget that not only will Yongfeng Kingdom come to Lingfeng Kingdom, but your people will also go to Yongfeng Kingdom. You are not proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so you will be the ones who have a hard time dealing with the situation."
"Slap, slap..."
Wen Yin clapped his hands. This little girl was very quick-witted and to his liking. If it weren't for her special status, he would really like to take her as his disciple.
It's a pity; it's rare to find such a promising talent.
“Indeed, what this young lady says is quite right. We are friends through martial arts, and when we arrive in another country, we should naturally abide by its rules. Next month is the day we will go to Yongfeng Kingdom. I will also be there. I am looking forward to what will happen there.”
This is different from the previous life. Back then, Wen Yinzheng directly accepted Song Tangli as his disciple in the palace, but he had more considerations for her. Song Tangxue didn't think it was because of her lack of ability, but guessed that he had other reasons.
"This girl is indeed very skilled. I have lost, and I have nothing to say."
Rou'er clasped her hands in a fist and withdrew completely. She could afford to lose; at worst, she would continue to train hard starting tomorrow.
The banquet was now over, and the Emperor invited them to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. It seemed that Song Tangxue's words at the banquet had had an effect.
"I never expected your Crown Princess to be so intelligent. I was ignorant. You came here today simply to take something back with you. This is what you want."
The Emperor pointed to a box not far away, which contained gold and silver jewelry unique to the Lingfeng Kingdom. To ensure harmony between the two countries, they would take some things back from each other's countries every year.
"In that case, you should head back tomorrow."
Song Tangxue felt conflicted. She hadn't expected that even though she was about to return home, Wen Yinzheng still wouldn't accept her as a disciple.
This is strange. So, in my previous life, I didn't go with them, but at that palace banquet, I directly became Wen Yinzheng's disciple. It seems that Wen Yinzheng was quite interested in me, but he never approached me. This is very strange. Could it be that someone told him something?
In fact, in his previous life, Wen Yinzheng was able to take Song Tangli as his disciple only because he did not know her identity. If he had known that she was the Crown Princess, he would not have been so hasty.
"We will be staying here for a while longer."
The delegation has been here for three days, and the Emperor has given them ten days. Not even half of the time has passed. It seems that they can take their remaining days to explore the Lingfeng Kingdom.
"Very well, what this young lady said recently has resonated with me deeply. I have always believed that as long as a person is strong, no one will dare to bully him, but I forgot that there are other things in this world besides martial arts."
The Lingfeng Kingdom requires everyone to practice martial arts. How is this any different from other countries?
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!" Just then, a eunuch rushed over.
...
Xie Qianyao is about to leave, and he is already content to be by Song Tangxue's side. In the next few days, Song Tangxue will write him letters every day.
As Xie Qianzhong's figure receded into the distance, Song Tangxue felt a sense of melancholy. She shook her head, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart. It's not like she'll never see him again, so why was she so sad?
The Empress of Yongfeng Kingdom fell ill, and all the imperial physicians in the palace were summoned, but none of them could cure her. The Emperor was very anxious and sought out famous doctors from all over the country. Anyone who could cure the Empress could be granted the rank of fifth grade in the Imperial Medical Academy.
For a time, anyone with even a little medical skill went to the palace, but all returned empty-handed. The emperor was furious. How dare anyone come here? What if the empress's illness worsened during this process? So he issued another decree: anyone who could not cure the empress's illness after the notice was posted would be thrown into prison.
Those who were already observing dared not go any further.
The Emperor and Empress were deeply in love; they were childhood sweethearts. Upon ascending the throne, the Emperor immediately promoted the Empress to the position of Empress, causing the Emperor to be so anxious that he was even somewhat distracted during the morning court sessions.
What puzzled Song Tangxue was that even Wen Yinzheng was anxious. Could it be that the two of them had some kind of relationship?
Bored, Meng Youyu went to find Song Tangxue, who brought many strange and unusual things with her.
"Tang Xue, let me tell you, this is so delicious! We don't have any of this where we're from." Meng Youyu said this as a joke, having just brought all the delicacies of Lingfeng Kingdom to the inn yesterday.
"What illness do you think the Empress is suffering from?"
While eating, Meng Youyu said, "I don't know. I just heard from the people that it seems to be a plague. People who have been in contact with the Empress have also contracted the same disease. But the news hasn't spread yet, so I don't know if it's true or not."
Song Tangxue suddenly remembered something: in Yongfeng Kingdom in its previous life, there was a very serious plague that caused great suffering to the people. Many people died at that time, and corpses could be seen everywhere on the streets.
The illness seems to have originated from Lingfeng Kingdom, and it's expected to occur next month.
"I'll go to the palace first!"
If that's the case, then I'll have to take care of this matter.
