Chapter 114(1/2)
King De'an laughed and said, "General Mu is joking. I respect General Mu very much. If I dare to say that I don't like General Mu, I'm afraid the people of Nanyong will not obey it, right? Huixin, you are really a girl. If you want to see Princess Anping's martial arts, you can also say it privately, right?"
King De'an is King De'an, and he still does not forget to provoke and disagree.
General Mu seemed not to hear his provocation, and a kind and generous smile appeared on his face. He nodded, "Prince De'an is not as good as I dislike me." After a pause, his tone changed again, "But since I want to ask Nannan for advice on martial arts, it is still OK. Although Nannan only knows some fancy tricks, it is good to let the two children play and help them to make fun of. What does Nannan think?"
Mu Tinglan smiled and nodded, saying, "Grandfather, if Princess Huixin really wants to ask for advice, her granddaughter will naturally be willing."
King De'an's expression was slightly stiff, and he felt even more displeased with the three ancestors and grandchildren of the General's Mansion. This old and immortal king gave him a way out and he was not going to go down and turned around. Humph, why should he be worried if that is the case? "If that is the case, Emperor Nanyong, why would you let these two children compete?"
"If so, just do it." Emperor Jiaxuan looked at General Mu secretly, and saw General Mu nodding, then said, but he was a little worried, is there no problem with Anping?
Seeing Mu Tinglan want to play with Princess Huixin, it was a pity that she had not seen Mu Tinglan’s unlucky person before, and now she was in high spirits. She stretched her neck and opened her eyes widened and wanted to see Mu Tinglan embarrassed and unlucky. In their opinion, Mu Tinglan is simply looking for death. How could she beat Princess Huixin? It is no secret that Princess Huixin can do martial arts. You must know that Princess Huixin had just arrived in Nanyong and taught several young masters a lesson.
But as for Mu Tinglan, although everyone's impression of her has changed, they only think that Mu Tinglan is just a little more useful, so let alone martial arts. They still remember that Mu Tinglan is a sick person who rests at any time. After resting, it will take a long time. What can such a sick person do?
It is estimated that Princess Huixin can beat him to the ground with just one finger.
Many people are disdainful and are waiting to see Mu Tinglan being defeated and embarrassed. But smart people think more and see more, such as Xue Yanran, Mu Yaoguang, Princess Xinyang, etc., and Gu Heng.
The one who was the least worried that Mu Tinglan would lose was Gu Heng. He had a very thorough understanding of the previous case of Mu Lingheng being assassinated in Taohuawu. The people in Ancheng only knew that the person who saved Mu Lingheng was a very powerful beggar. This beggar was Mu Tinglan's adoptive father, but he didn't know that the person who appeared at the beginning was Mu Tinglan. In order to save Mu Lingheng, Mu Tinglan also killed several assassins and even fought with those assassins.
There is also another identity of Mu Tinglan, Lan Muting and Lan Muting, who know about martial arts.
Mr. Liu, who was sitting behind, was not very worried. He also knew what happened. Although Mu Tinglan had pretended to be very popular before, and Mr. Liu also sympathized with Mu Tinglan for a while, he didn't think so anymore after that, and even wanted to spit on his previous eyes.
"Princess Huixin, please." Mu Tinglan was very well-educated and refused to do it first, so as not to say that Wu Zhenguo would bully people later.
"Please." Princess Huixin also acted politely, and then called Mu Tinglan.
Princess Huixin knows some martial arts skills, but she should only learn to defend herself, or she has not learned it carefully, so this martial arts is really a three-legged cat. Among the noble girls, Princess Huixin's martial arts can be said to be powerful, but in Mu Tinglan's opinion, it is really not enough to watch.
Mu Tinglan was fighting with Princess Huixin. On the surface, Mu Tinglan seemed to be hiding, but those who are good at martial arts could see that Mu Tinglan didn't use any force at all. She was not hiding anymore, but she seemed to be teasing Princess Huixin to play.
Everyone has different thoughts when they see these things.
Marquis Dingyuan looked at Mu Tinglan and nodded in his heart. He had also found out that Mu Tinglan seemed to be good at martial arts before, but this was the first time he had seen Mu Tinglan take action. Mrs. Chang was a little worried, "Marty, is it okay for Tinglan to do this?"
"Mother, don't worry." Su Wenxuan said, "My cousin is fine, but Princess Huixin is the one who has the problem."
"Huh?" Chang looked at her son in confusion. She didn't understand martial arts. Naturally, she couldn't understand it.
Su Wenxuan smiled and then explained, "Ting Lan is trying to guide her as she has been hiding."
"guide?"
Right, it is guidance.
Mu Tinglan is guiding Princess Huixin.
"Mu Tinglan, what's your ability to hide like this?" Princess Huixin felt more unhappy and anxious when she saw Mu Tinglan keep hiding, "If you don't have that ability, you will admit defeat."
"Princess Huixin has the ability, just hit me? I'm hiding, but if you can't catch up and hit you, it's not really a skill, right?" Mu Tinglan said.
It is probably the first time I have encountered this situation. Not only Princess Huixin was stunned, but even Emperor Jiaxuan was still speechless. How could this girl say such a fallacy? And she was so righteous.
But no matter what, Mu Tinglan's words made Princess Huixin even more irritable. "I originally wanted to leave you a little bit of face. Since that's the case, I'm not polite." As she said that, she rushed towards Mu Tinglan quickly.
Seeing this, many people still raised their hearts. Princess Huixin is serious now.
Mu Tinglan looked at the person who was attacking her hard, and suddenly the corner of her mouth rose slightly and showed a very strange smile, but few people noticed this. When Princess Huixin was about to hit Mu Tinglan, Mu Tinglan suddenly hid next to her. Then, due to inertia, Princess Huixin passed Mu Tinglan and rushed forward, but she did not notice that behind Mu Tinglan was the fourth prince and the others. It was too late to wait until it appeared.
Then with a 'slam', Princess Huixin actually pounced on the table in front of the Fourth Prince and the others. The fruits and desserts on it were swept out. Although the Fourth Prince and others were almost dodging, some debris still splashed on them.
Princess Huixin paused for a moment, but did not stop. Instead, she looked at Mu Tinglan on the side angrily, stood up and attacked Mu Tinglan again. Mu Tinglan actually made her embarrassed like this, and she would definitely not let Mu Tinglan go.
However, even though Princess Huixin tried her best, she still couldn't hurt Mu Tinglan. Instead, she rushed to the envoy of Xichu on the table and almost injured the national teacher of Xichu. If Princess Huixin thought Mu Tinglan had no martial arts skills at first and only thought about hiding, then she wouldn't think so now. She could see clearly that Mu Mu Tinglan was teasing herself. Her figure was so fast that she would hide so soon every time. Who would believe that she didn't know how to do martial arts?
But knowing that Princess Huixin did not want to stop, but became more angry. After Mu Tinglan avoided again, Princess Huixin's anger hit the peak. She raised her hand and took off the hairpin from her head and shot at Mu Tinglan. Seeing this, everyone was shocked. General Mu, Dingyuanhou and others all stood up subconsciously.
"careful."
Mu Tinglan didn't expect Princess Huixin to take out her weapons. She subconsciously avoided the side. Anyway, there were people from the North behind her. Even if she was injured, she should go to find Princess Huixin, right? Although I feel sorry for Mr. Qiao, Master Qiao shouldn't mind.
So Mu Tinglan really avoided the side without hesitation, so the hairpin shot at the fourth prince behind her. The fourth prince was originally watching the excitement, and never thought that the excitement would affect his fish pond. Looking at the hairpin with cold light, the fourth prince just took a step back, while Peng Feilong beside him was about to pick up the cup on the table and hit the hairpin.
The hairpin and the cup collided with each other to make a crisp sound, and then both fell to the ground.
General Mu and others all breathed a sigh of relief, "Princess Huixin, what do you mean?" General Mu walked towards Mu Tinglan quickly, and then looked at Huixin after carefully watching Mu Tinglan was not injured.
At this moment, Princess Huixin finally woke up. Facing General Mu's powerful aura, his face turned pale. He looked at King De'an with a helpless look. King De'an's expression was not very good, but Huixin is his daughter, so she can't watch her daughter being bullied, right? Although this matter was originally the fault of them.
"What's wrong with General Mu? It's just a small exchange, and some surprises are inevitable." King De'an said, "Hui Xin, what's wrong with you? Why are you still serious?"
"Father, I, I just don't want to lose, I'm embarrassed to be the one who is." Huixin quickly said with regret and helplessness, "Princess Anping, I'm really sorry."
"General Mu, you look at the girl because of her filial piety. The child is inevitably a little impatient. Please forgive General Mu and Princess Anping for understanding."
This is shameless. But since they have already apologized for General Mu, if they really care about it, it would seem very lacking in their stomachs? But let it go, can General Mu be willing?
Of course not.
"Originally, I won't care about these things. But after I go back, King De'an should teach you carefully. If it weren't for Nannan hiding quickly, if General Peng hadn't taken action in time, I would be afraid that the Fourth Prince of the North would be injured by accident." General Mu said, "If the Fourth Prince was injured, we, Nan Yong, could not bear this responsibility, right?"
King De'an's expression was slightly stiff, and then he pulled the corner of his mouth, "General Mu said, right." He said almost gritted his teeth, then looked at the fourth prince and bowed, "Is the fourth prince okay? Is it really embarrassing to make the fourth prince frightened? Huixin, why don't you apologize to the fourth prince?"
"The Fourth Prince is really sorry." Huixin said quickly. It was quite refreshing to lower her head and apologize, but Mu Tinglan did not miss the unwillingness and resentment in her eyes.
The fourth prince smiled, "It doesn't matter, I just hope that this kind of thing will not happen again, otherwise I will be scared to death." As he said that, he looked at Mu Tinglan and said, "Prince Anping is good at kung fu."
When the female relatives heard this, they couldn't help but look at the fourth prince like a fool. Are the fourth prince blind? Mu Tinglan has been hiding and has not taken any action at all. What good kung fu is this?
If he knew what these women were thinking, the Fourth Prince would probably give them a look of extreme contempt. How could Mu Tinglan be hiding? It was clearly deliberately guiding Princess Huixin and then taking the opportunity to retaliate against them.
Looking at the scene, their original position was in a mess. Although the position of the envoy of the Western Chu was a little messy, it was much better than that of theirs. In the end, Princess Huixin almost injured him by mistake. This was all the result of Mu Tinglan's guidance. She seemed to be hiding, but in fact she had always led Princess Huixin to their side.
This Princess Anping was so interesting that he wanted to see Mu Tinglan's true strength even more.
Mu Tinglan did not miss the interest in the fourth prince's eyes. She sneered in her heart, but her face looked innocent, "Thank you for the fourth prince's praise, it's just a little luck for the little girl."
The fourth prince heard this but smiled without saying a word.
Seeing that they had all coordinated themselves, a smile flashed in their eyes, and then he spoke, "Princess Huixin is also good at martial arts, and King De'an is so lucky. But the destructive power is a little bit greater. People are here, but they are not here to clean up."
King De'an's eyes flashed slightly, and he seemed not to care about Emperor Jiaxuan's run. "It really disturbed everyone's pleasure. I will punish myself for a cup."
"Oh, it's easy to say, this is not a big deal." Emperor Jiaxuan said, "Okay, let's continue."
The palace maids quickly collected the locations of the northern border and western Chu and put on fruits and snacks again. After the atmosphere was reconciled, the previous harmony was restored. The four countries did not seek benefits from Mu Tinglan and Mu Lingheng, so they looked at the other talented women of Nan Yong.
As the number one beauty in Nanyong and the first talented woman, Xue Yanran was honored to be targeted, and then had a talent competition with Princess Qianqian from the North. Xue Yanran won without surprise.
However, Princess Qianqian is not a person who cannot afford to lose. Instead, she behaves generously and decently. Even if she loses, she is not unwilling to accept it or anything. Such performance naturally won the praise of many people. Then there was the performance of Yuxi and Xichu. The performance of Yuxi was King Zhaoming and Hou Cheng'an. Both of them were in real power. They couldn't let them come out to perform like these ladies, right? But with these two, they were just a little girl, there was naturally nothing to perform in Yuxi. Instead, they played a game of chess with King Zhaoming of Yuxi and King Xinyang who rushed back, and King Zhaoming won.
The tenth princess from Xichu came out to cheer up the fun, but the princess looked bad and seemed to be sick. She couldn't hold on halfway through the performance, so she had to stop.
Although the dinner was not very exciting, it was quite lively. Later, Emperor Jiaxuan and the Queen left first and asked the Sixth Prince and the others to host the banquet. When Emperor Jiaxuan left, the atmosphere was different again. After all, Emperor Jiaxuan was the emperor, and everyone would inevitably be reluctant to be able to play with the emperor.
Not long after Emperor Jiaxuan left, General Mu, King Xinyang, and the left and right prime ministers were also summoned to leave, and the atmosphere in Wenxuan Hall became even more lively.
"Prince Anping just now really opened my eyes." The fourth prince said loudly, "Young Master Mu is the same. Nan Yong has indeed emerged with many talents."
"The Fourth Prince praised it." Mu Tinglan said lightly, not looking like she wanted to talk to the Fourth Prince.
A trace of displeasure flashed in the fourth prince's eyes, but it disappeared soon. He turned around and started talking to the second prince and the others. "I heard that Nan Yong has the top ten talents, the second prince and the third prince are both on the list. It seems that they are well-known. I just don't know which is the best, the second prince or the third prince."
Got to do something again.
Mu Tinglan looked at the second prince and the others like everyone else. The second prince and others were already quite old, but now there is not a single concubine. Several times Emperor Jiaxuan and the queen wanted to find a suitable concubine for them, but it seemed that they had never found a suitable concubine.
But this time, except for Yuxi, the four countries, there are women who are suitable for marriage, and the meaning of marriage is very obvious. The other party obviously has to choose between the second prince and the others. Princess Huixin and Princess Qianqian also understand their fate, so they have already started looking for candidates early on.
Although the second prince and the others are very suitable candidates, they did not just look at the princes. There are many young talents in Nan Yong. Although they didn’t come all today, there are really not many ordinary people here.
The second prince smiled slightly, "It's just that everyone can respect it. In fact, I have nothing to do with it." He would not have fallen into the plan of the fourth prince in the North.
"I think the second prince and the third prince are very good." King De'an said, "The same is true for the fifth prince, but I heard that the third prince in Xichu is obsessed with the fifth prince." As he said that, he looked at the fifth prince ambiguously.
"King De'an is careful." said the National Master Ruoshui, "The third princess only admires the fifth prince."
But King De'an laughed, "I know, the national master doesn't need to explain."
How could I know this way? I clearly want to say what is between the third princess of Western Chu and the fifth prince. It is true that everyone knows that the third princess of Western Chu not only appreciates the fifth prince. When the fifth prince was on the mission to Western Chu, he was attracted by the third prince and threatened to marry the fifth prince. At that time, the third princess was still pestering the fifth prince. I heard that if the Emperor of Western Chu was not angry, the third princess would probably come to Nanyong with the fifth prince this time.
Logically speaking, if you want to get married, the third princess is not the right candidate? But now the tenth princess is coming to Nanyong, which is a bit intriguing.
National Master Ruoshui frowned. King De'an clearly wanted to destroy the reputation of the third princess.
Feng Yuanzheng, General Huaiyuan of Western Chu, also thought of this. He said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that King De'an was so clear about my Western Chu. It's such an honor. However, the third princess really only admired the fifth prince. Otherwise, the person here today would not be the tenth princess, King De'an said, right?"
King De'an's expression stagnated, and then he laughed again, "General Feng said that."
Seeing them spying on each other's pair, Mu Tinglan thought it was quite interesting. Well, as long as it was not targeted at her, she would find it interesting. It would be better if they added conflicts with each other, so it wouldn't be too wonderful.
But looking at the second prince and the others, although there was not much communication, it was actually undercurrents. Now only the North and Nanyong did not establish a crown prince, so the fourth prince is most likely to cooperate with the second prince and the others, and the same was true in his previous life, but it seems that Western Chu was also among them.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about that anymore. As long as the fourth prince is not working with the third prince, she doesn’t want to threaten the General’s Mansion. After all, the General’s Mansion does not stand in line, and those who are loyal to them are all people sitting on that chair.
"Nannan, isn't it a bit boring?" Mu Lingheng asked in a low voice.
Mu Tinglan nodded, "It's a bit, but it's still interesting if they can continue to target each other like this." She whispered in Mu Lingheng's ear.
Although they said this in a low voice, there were also masters among the envoys of the four countries. Although they were targeting each other, they had always noticed the situation here of Mu Lingheng and the others, so they would inevitably subconsciously listen carefully.
I couldn't help but feel speechless and reconciled when I heard this.
To be continued...
