The luncheon lasted a long time, and towards the end, it was mostly just chatting and being polite, but the main focus remained on Zhu Yunwen.
Of course, Zhao Qingzhu was also an object of admiration for some of the princesses present, and she constantly answered their various questions.
For example, how do you maintain your beauty? How come you're so beautiful? Why do you have such a great figure? Why is your skin so white, smooth, and delicate?
For example, how can she be so powerful? She's so beautiful, how can her martial arts skills be so high? How does she train? Does martial arts have a beauty-enhancing effect?
And so on and so forth.
Zhao Qingzhu answered their questions with great enthusiasm, and in the end, she always said that martial arts skills were her talent, and being beautiful was something she was born with.
The princesses were both envious and jealous, but they envied Zhao Qingzhu even more for being able to marry such an outstanding man as Zhu Yunwen.
This is something Zhao Qingzhu is particularly proud of.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the King of Baoxiang Kingdom stood up and told them to go to their respective residences to rest.
The official gathering of the princes of the motherland took place in the evening.
He also reminded everyone to showcase the unique features of each country in their promotional materials.
This is what makes it interesting and has a huge benefit for promoting the economic development, foreign trade exports, and exchanges of interests of their respective countries.
Of course, this is not the most important thing in the eyes of the princes of various countries.
Most importantly, they want to showcase something that represents their country's strength at this gathering.
It's an opportunity to demonstrate to these countries how powerful they are.
Among them, the prince of Chechi Kingdom held the most intense opinion.
He most wanted to use this opportunity to showcase Chechi Kingdom, to let everyone understand its rapid progress, and to make everyone acknowledge that Chechi Kingdom is now the largest country in the west.
After returning to their resting place, Zhao Qingzhu put her hands on her hips and said to Zhu Yunwen:
"How was it? At the luncheon today, I had you cook. Didn't that really give that prince from Chechi Kingdom a good slap in the face? Didn't it feel great?"
Zhu Yunwen rolled his eyes and said with a smile:
"As the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, doing something like this doesn't really offer much of a thrill, but as long as you're having fun, that's all that matters."
Besides, wasn't it more satisfying to throw a cup at the prince of Chechi Kingdom at the luncheon and terrify him?
Zhao Qingzhu burst into laughter at the mention of this matter, and then said to Zhu Yunwen:
"So in the future, you should take me to more of these kinds of events. If you're too embarrassed to show off, I'll do it. If you're too embarrassed to slap someone in the face, I'll do it. In short, I can help you with anything you can do, and I can also help you with anything you can't do."
Zhu Yunwen immediately gave her an affirming look and said:
"Hmm, that's true. You're quite valuable, aren't you? From now on, can I go anywhere without you?"
Zhao Qingzhu immediately put her hands on her hips again, looking incredibly arrogant.
Meanwhile, at the place where the prince of Chechi Kingdom was resting, the prince looked at the various advanced things he had brought from his country and a very proud smile appeared on his face.
He was especially smug when he looked at the crossbows in the box.
Because this is their Chechi Kingdom, and recently they have developed a crossbow weapon with extremely powerful attack capabilities.
During this campaign against the Gaochang Kingdom, this thing demonstrated its extraordinary combat power and played a crucial role in the conquest of Gaochang.
Looking at the modified, even more powerful crossbow, he couldn't help but reveal a smug smile, then muttered to himself:
"Great Ming, you probably don't even possess such a powerful crossbow. Tonight, during the weapons demonstration, I'm going to show it off. You, the Crown Prince of Ming, are you going to wet your pants in fear? Hahahaha..."
As the prince of Chechi Kingdom spoke, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. At the same time, he took out another box, opened it, and found some lumps of iron inside.
Around the lump of iron, many sharp spikes and barbs were installed.
This is something that most people wouldn't know how to handle, but luckily, it's connected by a thin chain and has a handle.
The prince of Chechi looked at the thing in front of him, which resembled a durian, and said smugly:
"This super invincible thunderball is even more terrifying in power. As long as you swing this thing with great force, if it hits a person, they will be half dead, if not killed."
Furthermore, it can be reused repeatedly. As long as the person waving it has enough strength and keeps waving it, no one within two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters) can stand still.
They were either crushed to death or scratched by the sharp spikes. The Ming Dynasty certainly didn't possess such weapons. These two weapons were the key weapons used by my Chechi Kingdom in our recent attack on Gaochang.
One can kill from a distance, the other is invincible in close combat. The Ming Dynasty absolutely did not possess either of these.
"And what my Chechi Kingdom will display at this gathering will surely shock all nations and silence the Ming Dynasty."
As he thought about this, he gradually began to fantasize, imagining how ugly Zhu Yunwen's face would look at that time.
Ideally, it would be a beautiful woman who would cast admiring glances at him; that would be perfect.
