A burst of laughter came, with a bit of contempt. Yun Shang seemed not to hear it, playing with the delicate wine glass in his hand, and his eyes fell on the stage lightly.
When Qi Lang saw this, a flash of thought flashed in his eyes, he cupped his hands towards Yun Shang and said, "Does the princess like this show?"
Yun Shang felt that many pairs of eyes below were on her, she raised her lips and smiled, and said calmly, "If this female actor is a Huadan, she should be more outstanding when she performs some scenes of flowers in front of the moon.
But it’s not suitable for Dao Ma Dan, Dao Ma Dan should be more majestic and domineering.”
"Originally, a woman should not be a general, and this battlefield is not a place where women should come." There was a voice below that was a little louder. Because everyone was paying attention to Yun Shang's words, it was already relatively quiet.
This sound sounded like thunder.
Qi Lang's expression changed slightly, "Bold!"
Yun Shang smiled slightly and looked at the man who spoke. The man was about thirty years old and had a big beard. He should have been a general under Qi Lang. "General Qi is right. This man is indeed a little bold. Not only
You are so bold, even if I, the princess, ask you a charge of disrespect, it is also appropriate!"
The man snorted coldly, "But let me tell you what I think. She is indeed a princess, and she really has a lot of airs."
"What you said just now is not disrespectful to me, but to the founding queen of Ningguo!" Yun Shang's eyes gradually turned cold, and while everyone was stunned, she said, "Empress Xiao, the founding queen of Ningguo, and the founding emperor of Ningguo
Soon after they got married, they went on expeditions with the founding emperor, and many of the battles were won by Empress Xiao herself. The founding emperor of Ning Guo once said that most of the Ning Guo's country was conquered by Empress Xiao. You have just won
You said that this is not a place for women to be a general. However, Queen Xiao was named General Qi Min by the founding emperor at that time. You said that this battlefield is not a place for women. Queen Xiao spent more than ten years of her life on the battlefield, and even
I never went to the battlefield even when I was pregnant. Are you saying that you are disrespectful to Empress Xiao?"
The man looked a little ugly, and after a while he opened his mouth and said, "Could it be that the princess is comparing herself to the original Queen Xiao?"
Yun Shang laughed "haha", glanced at the man lightly, and then said softly, "Queen Xiao is naturally a role model for our Ningguo women. Don't you think so?"
This was a question that could be answered incorrectly. The man obviously noticed this and snorted coldly, "Wise words."
Yun Shang smiled and turned her gaze to the group of people below. Her eyes gradually became colder, "I know that many people here look down on me and think that I am just a woman who doesn't understand anything. But
Relying on his own identity, he came here to stir up the troubled waters. He thought, originally Kangyang was doing well, but this princess wanted to come. Yes, I am a woman, but I don’t think that women are better than any of you.
A man is missing."
Seeing that most of the men below showed a bit of disapproval, Yun Chang smiled, pointed at Qianyin beside him and said, "If nothing else, you men rely on your martial arts skills and are stronger than women, so let's do this.
You can invite someone to come over and compete with this young maid who is only fifteen years old and is next to me. If you win, I will pack up your things and leave without saying a word. If you lose,
, then today, you have to stand up, bow respectfully to this princess and this maid, and say I was wrong, what do you think?"
Yun Shang looked at the expressions of the people below and saw that they were all a little impatient, so she smiled and picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, sitting quietly and waiting.
"Let me do it." The bearded man from before stood up, "Just let me come and meet the girl next to the princess for a while."
Yun Shang paused her hand slightly and smiled lightly, "Of course it's possible, but I have to make it clear that there is only one competition. Are you sure you don't want to choose the one with the best martial arts among you?"
The man's expression changed, and he suppressed his anger and said, "I'm not the best in martial arts. I just saw that this little girl is so young and so beautiful, and I kindly wanted to let her take advantage..."
"Huh? If no one else has any objections, I don't have any objections either. I'm just giving you a kind reminder." Yun Shang said, turned to look at Qian Yin, and said with a smile, "Qian Yin, please be merciful.
Don't cause any harm to anyone."
Qianyin chuckled, "Don't worry, Princess, I understand. It's just that there are tables and chairs down here, and it's hard to move around. Please remove all the actors on the stage. I see that this actor is really not singing well."
Well, you ruined a good show in vain."
Yun Shang nodded, "Just withdraw."
The actor retreated, Qianyin suppressed her smile, jumped up, and reached the stage opposite. Seeing this, the bearded man snorted coldly, "Flower." Then he walked to the edge of the stage,
Jumped up.
Yun Shang just looked at the man's strong arms, which should be extremely powerful, and his lower body is relatively stable, but his steps are heavy and his breathing is turbid. He should only have a brute force and does not pose much threat to Qianyin, so he
He lowered his head and looked at the small celadon cup in his hand and began to play with it.
Sure enough, in less than a cup of tea, the bearded man was defeated and kicked off the stage by Qianyin.
Qianyin jumped back to Yunshang with a smile and saluted, with a bit of pride in his eyes, "Qianyin is lucky to live up to his fate."
Yun Shang nodded, "You will get a big reward when you go back." After saying that, he stopped looking at Qianyin's somewhat cunning face and turned to look at the gray-faced people below, "What, you are convinced that you lost?
"
"But that girl is obviously very skilled in martial arts, so that's not fair." Someone said loudly, and many people immediately agreed.
Yun Shang smiled coldly, "Fair? You guys rely on your brute strength, so you think you are stronger than women, but when you lose, you start to blame it for being unfair. I just said, let you find the most powerful one.
If you don't want to do it yourself, how can you blame me, Princess? It's just that you can't beat a little maid. This is a fact. This shows that women are not as incompetent as you think. Women can also have high-strength martial arts and can compete with others.
You know better about military decisions."
"The princess said that women may have better kung fu than men, but I believe her. She just said that women know more about military decisions than we do, but I don't believe it at all."
When Yun Shang heard this, she knew that he had his own way. She smiled coldly and said, "Then you want to compare? Or this maid, my princess, can compare with you."
"Okay, the general will ask three questions. If this girl can correct the answers, the general will admit defeat." The man stood up, and Yun Shang saw it. It was a man in green clothes. He was not as rude as a warrior.
His temperament seems to be gentle and gentle, like a military advisor.
Yun Shang looked at Qianyin, who smiled slightly and said, "The princess has taught this slave the art of war for a long time. Princess, don't worry, I will definitely not embarrass the princess."
Yun Shang nodded, "General, please."
The man pondered for a moment and then said, "Ten years ago, Yelang State attacked Xiyuan City of Ning State with 800,000 troops. Ning State defended the city with only 300,000 soldiers. In the end, Yelang State was defeated miserably, and Ning State did not waste a single soldier.
One pawn, why?”
Qianyin smiled lightly, "There is a saying in the art of war. The most advanced military strategy is to attack the city, and the lowest military strategy is to attack the city. The Yelang Kingdom adopted the method of attacking the city, while the Ning Kingdom was led by King Jing at the time, which was the attack method.
When planning, the best versus the worst, who wins and who loses is natural."
The man was silent for a moment, and looked at Qian Yin with a hint of caution, "The Art of War says that a hundred battles are invincible, and a person who is not good is not a good person. So what should a good person be like?"
"Conquer the enemy without fighting." Qianyin said without any hesitation.
Although it was the weather in September or October, the man couldn't help but shed some beads of sweat on his forehead. After a while, he said, "Why do the Xia army only dare to station outside the city and not dare to attack Kangyang City?"
As soon as this question came out, everyone's expressions relaxed slightly. The princess and the maid had just arrived in Kangyang, and everything in the city was unclear. Naturally, they didn't know why.
When Qianyin heard this, she laughed, with a bit of sarcasm, "What this young master said is so strange? Don't you dare? It's not that the Xia Kingdom doesn't dare, it's just because the name of the Xia Kingdom's military advisor is Liu Yinfeng
Liu Yinfeng is best at knowing oneself and the enemy. I am afraid he has a clear idea of the personalities, temperaments and preferences of the generals here early. He does not take the initiative to send troops, just because he knows that our Kangyang City
The defender's general's name is Qi Lang. General Qi has nothing to say about fighting, but he has one problem, that is, he is arrogant and arrogant. Liu Yinfeng does not attack because he is well aware of General Qi's weakness. This is just his strategy.
"
As soon as Qianyin finished speaking, there was silence below. Yun Shang saw a faint blue vein popping out on Qi Lang's forehead. Yun Shang smiled slightly. This girl probably doesn't even know how to write the word euphemism.
After a while, Qi Lang spoke, "I just heard this girl talk about Liu Yinfeng, saying that he is the best at knowing oneself and the enemy. I would like to ask this girl, what is Liu Yinfeng's weakness?"
Where is it?"
Yun Shang rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Liu Yinfeng, he likes men, and the man he likes is Xia Houjing, the seventh prince of the Xia Kingdom. Is this considered his weakness?"
As soon as Yun Shang finished speaking, she realized that all eyes were focused on Yun Shang. However, Yun Shang did not intend to continue speaking. Instead, Qian Yin continued, "The princess had someone investigate Liu Yin as early as January."
She knew that he had almost no hobbies, leaving no room for anyone to attack. However, the princess asked her subordinates to pay attention to the various arrangements in Liu Yinfeng's house. The people we sent ended up in his study.
Many hidden paintings were found, and the paintings inside were all of the Seventh Prince of Xia Kingdom, Xia Houjing."
Someone below patted the table and stood up, "No wonder, no wonder he brought a woman as beautiful as a fairy there before. Liu Yinfeng also looked as calm as a mountain. It turns out that he doesn't like women at all, but he actually likes men. It's really true.
,nausea."
Yun Shang smiled coldly, "We have also competed in writing and martial arts. Shouldn't you fulfill your promises? French cuisine has already said that if you lose, you must stand up and respectfully
Bow to me and the maid Qianyin, and say, I'm sorry."
Everyone looked at each other, but some people stood up slowly. Some people stood up. Even if others didn't want to, they didn't want to lose face, so they stood up with unhappy expressions. Everyone was about to get up.
, it took a long while before they all bowed, "I'm sorry."
Yun Shang smiled lightly and said, "Today I just want to teach you a lesson and tell you that what you men can do, women may not necessarily do worse than you, and what women can do, you may not be able to do.
I hope you will remember this lesson in the future and never underestimate women again."
After Yun Shang finished speaking, she stood up and said, "I am a little tired today, so I will leave first. You guys have fun."
Qian Yin quickly stepped forward to support Yun Shang and walked slowly towards the backyard.
When she walked to the corner of the promenade by the lake in the backyard, she saw a man in white standing by the promenade looking at the lake, seemingly in a daze. Yun Shang frowned. If she remembered correctly, it was because she had specially ordered
Well, she doesn't like to be disturbed by others, so she is the only one who lives on this side of the lake, and this place is the only way to where she lives.
The man seemed to have noticed her arrival. He turned around and looked at Yun Shang. He seemed to be stunned for a moment before he hurriedly said, "It turns out to be the princess. General Qi Yufeng pays homage to the princess."
Qi Yufeng and Yun Shang's eyes fell on the man kneeling in front of her. This name was not unfamiliar to her. It had frequently appeared in the information submitted to her by her subordinates some time ago. It was said that Qi Lang's eldest son was
Qi Lang's most proficient son. His martial arts skills are the best among the three sons, and his strategy is not bad either.
Yun Shang thought, with a bit of scrutiny in her eyes, "Excuse me, Mr. Qi is not in the front yard today?"
Qi Yufeng stood up and nodded, "I will go to the city gate for inspection at the end of the day. When I come back from the inspection, it will be too late. I originally said that, but when I got here, I was afraid that the banquet would be broken up. Let's go now.
It’s not appropriate either. I was thinking about whether to go or not when I saw the princess coming back.”
There was a deep look in Yun Shang's eyes, but the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. Qi Yufeng was stunned. There seemed to be light flashing in his eyes. There were only a few lanterns lit in the corridor.
Fortunately, the moonlight today is not bad, and it is very clear. However, it is said that beauty under the moon will make the beauty look even more beautiful when you look at it under the moon. A woman with natural beauty like Yun Shang, in this hazy sky
Under the light, the skin looks like jade, making people unable to take their eyes away.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Qi." Yun Shang said calmly, deliberately pretending not to see the sudden light in his eyes.
Qi Yufeng smiled and shook his head. His eyebrows were curved, his appearance was much better than that of Qi Yuzhi, and his voice was very gentle, "It is the duty of a general to protect the family and the country. The princess was so complimentary. The princess said this
He left the table so early, but the reception was not good enough, making the princess dissatisfied?"
"No, I'm just weak and can't stay up late, so I wanted to come back early to rest."
"Oh." Qi Yufeng responded softly, with a hint of gloominess in his voice, "Please take care of yourself, Princess. Yufeng heard from her mother that the Princess was sick, but it's just inconvenient to visit her. How is the Princess now?"
"Okay." Yun Shang didn't understand that Qi Yufeng pulled her here and said these words just to chat with her?
Curious in her heart, Yun Shang became calmer and calmer, causing Qi Yufeng to look at her several times involuntarily, "There are some places worth visiting in Kangyang City. If the princess is bored in the palace, she can have someone come to find her."
General, if the last general is not patrolling the city, he can be a guide for the princess. It is autumn now, and there are fruit trees all over the mountains in the north of the city, which are very beautiful to look at. There is a lot of water in Kangyang, and the water in autumn is especially soft.
, but it’s worth seeing.”
…
Yun Shang didn't even know how to respond now. She secretly guessed his purpose in her heart. After a long while, she said, "If I get the answer, I will go and have a look."
Qi Yufeng seemed to notice Yun Shang's coldness, and smiled a little lonely, "The princess is not in good health, so she should go and rest early."
Yun Shang nodded and was about to leave when she heard a sound piercing the air. Behind her came Qi Yufeng and Qian Yin shouting in unison, "Princess, be careful."
Yun Shang naturally knew what happened, but Qi Yufeng was there and it was not convenient to reveal that she had martial arts skills, so she just let Qian Yin pull her back two steps.
Three men in black rushed forward. Qi Yufeng drew his sword and rushed forward, fighting with the men in black.
Qian Yin wanted to step forward to help, but Yun Chang held her hand and shook her head. Although Qian Yin was confused, she did not show it. She just supported Yun Chang and stood there, looking at Qi Yufeng.
Fight with the three men in black.
No matter how powerful Qi Yufeng was, he was still just one person. After a while, he was slightly behind. A man in black took the opportunity to rush towards Yun Shang. Yun Shang held Qian Yin's hand to prevent her from taking action.
When the man in black was about to approach Yun Chang, Qi Yufeng, as if he had eyes behind him, quickly turned around and rushed towards Yun Chang, hugging Yun Chang.
The man in black swung his sword and stabbed Qi Yufeng. Yun Shang heard the sound of fabric tearing, and then the voice of a guard sounded, "There is an assassin, hurry up, there is an assassin!"
The men in black exchanged glances with each other and quickly left.
Yun Shang's lips curled up slightly, what a coincidence.
"Princess, are you okay?" Qi Yufeng seemed to have a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. He stood up, frowned, and asked with some difficulty, "Did those assassins hurt you?" There was something in his voice.
Very eager.
Yun Shang shook her head, bit her lip, and whispered, "I'm fine. Those assassins didn't hurt me. Mr. Qi, how are you?"
"I'm fine..." Qi Yuzhi coughed lightly. Yun Shang only saw his figure swaying and suddenly falling to the ground. (To be continued)
