Tao Rurui naturally had good eyesight, and he hurriedly rode his horse forward to ask,”May I know your name, sir?
...“Xia Ji.”
Tao Rurui quickly dismounted and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, King
Shenwu.”
Then, he hurriedly introduced himself, ‘
“My surname is Tao, and my name is Ru Rui. I traveled between the Central
Plains and the Turks as a merchant. After that, I settled down in the Turks.”
With that, Tao Rurui hurriedly turned around and began to babble to the Turks.
Everyone frowned. No one was willing to get off the horse. Ashli said a few more words loudly.
“King Shenwu, the leader of my diplomatic mission said that if we want them to dismount, I would like to ask King Shenwu to show us your abilities.” Tao Rurui turned around and said.
Xia Ji swept his gaze across the Turks before him, then glanced at the unhappy general in the lead. He turned to Tao Rurui and said,”You go alone.”
“I am not the person in charge of the diplomatic mission. I am just accompanying them.”
“You are now,” Xia Ji said.
Tao Rurui stared blankly for a moment, then hurriedly turned around and began to converse with the Turks.
The Turks immediately revealed furious expressions, and Ashili bellowed. Tao Rurui trembled in fear, then turned to Xia Ji and said, “”King Shenwu…”
He hesitated for a long time before slowly saying,”Our Turks have come upon invitation. Is this how the Central Plains treat their guests?”
Xia Ji shook his head. If you’re really a guest, then I’ll treat you.
If you came with ill intentions, would I still have to spend the effort to pretend to be polite with you?
Ridiculous.
Thus, he didn’t seem to hear Tao Rurui’s words, and it was as if Tao Rurui was no longer in front of him.
He grabbed a jar of fine wine with his left hand and poured himself a cup. The fine wine in the cup rippled in the spring rain.
In spring I admire the blooming flowers,
There was a flower on his head that had just bloomed last night.
Xia Ji looked at the peach blossoms on the street and took a sip of wine. He then touched his waist and took out a silver bean. He flicked it into a restaurant beside him.
“Two catties of beef. ”
The silver bean flew through the air at an extremely fast speed, but it landed steadily on the table of the restaurant. The restaurant manager was so shocked that he thought that a pie had fallen from the sky. When he heard the sound, he reacted and hurriedly shouted,”Waiter, prepare the beef.” Xia Ji drank one glass after another.
Tao Rurui clasped his hands and looked at him in shock.
He had never seen such an impressive Central Plainsman. Which of the people from the aristocratic families or even the royal family was not polite to the foreign envoy?
He had always seen the Turks as rude and unreasonable, and on the way here, Ashli had acted as if he had long since taken this beautiful land as his own, looking at people with his nose.
But he hadn’t expected that this Great Shang Divine Martial King would be even more unreasonable than the Turks.
Ashli’s expression was cold as he asked, “”What did he say?” “Your Highness, how should I report this?” Tao Rurui asked helplessly.
“You go alone,” Xia Ji said.
Tao Rurui turned around and started another round of conversation.
Ashli was instantly enraged. He stretched out his nearly three-meter-tall body, twisted his arms, and unleashed his true energy. It was like a blue whale spraying water, making a series of popping sounds. The air current was chaotic, and the spring water around his body shot in all directions. Some of the water even exploded in mid-air.
Whoosh!
Clang!
A black shadow shot out like a wild python and landed twenty feet away from Xia Ji. It was firmly inserted between the cracks of the rocks. Thousands of black gas swirled around it, but it instantly converged and landed in front of the black horse. It looked like an ordinary double-toothed black halberd, the Great Dark Heavenly Halberd.
“Don’t cross the boundary.”
Xia Ji reminded him in a friendly manner.
The horse looked at the black halberd and instinctively felt a sense of fear. It was as if it was not a weapon, but a ferocious beast that was looking at it coldly.
No matter how Ashli urged him, the black horse did not dare to move forward.
For a time, the west gate was in a stalemate.
Soon …
The waiter ran out with the cooked beef in his hands. He carefully ran to King Shenwu’s side and handed over the oilpaper bag, as well as a rain cover.
Xia Ji glanced at it and saw that it was not just two pounds. He said gently,
‘”‘Thanks.”
When the waiter heard these two words, he felt all the hair on his body stand on end. He was so scared that his legs went weak and he was about to lie on the ground.
But he didn’t kneel down. Xia Ji waved his hand, and a gentle force brought him up, allowing him to stand firmly.
“She said that no one who lives in my Imperial City should kneel.”
His voice was powerful and resonating as it slowly spread out and traveled extremely far.
Tears began to flow from the waiter’s eyes as he hastily retreated. He stood in front of the door and watched the youth who had sealed off all the Turkic envoys in the spring rain. He wasn’t very educated, and he was inwardly roaring, “How f * cking awesome!” When he thought of the grand events that the chivalrous heroes boasted about in the tavern, he felt like he was playing house.
He glanced worriedly at the tall and burly Turks in the direction of the city gates, none of them looking like friendly people.
On the roof of the restaurant, a hooded man was watching this scene with two sabers in his arms. Two strands of black and white hair flowed out from his hood. He was none other than the Northern Saber King, Feng Niuma. For some reason, he felt an incomparable sense of comfort as he quietly watched the youth confronting the Turks.
That’s what a man should do.
Shouldn’t heroes be like this?
Before he met King Shenwu, he had only speculated that King Shenwu was not the evil person in the rumors because the princess loved the people.
Seeing him today, he felt heroic, and all the rumors from before were instantly dispelled.
However, he was a little worried because the Turkic diplomatic mission was truly not easy to deal with. He had fought with the general in the lead, and the other party…He had already become the darling of this new era and had awakened a special power.
There were obviously other experts in this team.
Feng Niuma watched quietly. At the critical moment, he would make a move. Just based on the figure sitting in front of the army drinking wine, it was worth it.
The other swordsmen also looked at him. For some reason, they felt a sense of pride in their hearts, and their previous misunderstanding of him made them feel extremely guilty.
If she didn’t see him with her own eyes, how would she know that there was
Such a person in the world?
Ashli clenched his fists tightly and retracted his aura, hiding it all in his body. The muscles all over his body began to twist like snakes. Any raindrops that fell on his body would explode, but he still did not make a move.
It was very simple. No matter how reckless he was, he knew that this was someone else’s territory. It was not up to him to decide whether to fight or not, because the real general was hidden in the diplomatic mission.
Therefore, he turned his head and saw the ordinary-looking general nod.
“Tao Rurui, you go! You go alone!” Ashli’s eyes widened. Make it clear that this marriage must be connected. Otherwise, don’t come back!”
“General, if there are any changes, I’ll immediately return and inform you. I’ll wait for your decision,” Tao Rurui hurriedly said.
Ashli roared furiously and then stood rooted to the ground. If eyes could kill, he would have killed King Godwu, who was drinking peacefully in front of him, a hundred times over..
