Quick Transmigration: Cannon Fodder's Daily Rise to Power and Face-Slapping

Chapter 196 Slapping the Face of the Treacherous General 4

True to his word, Leng Yuexing began teaching Wenren Mo swordsmanship whenever he had time. Under Leng Yuexing's guidance, Wenren Mo made rapid progress.

When Leng Yuexing was away, he would practice swordsmanship from morning till night without stopping, without taking a single day off.

Since being punished by the emperor, Du Rong has become much more restrained.

Leng Yuexing thought that Du Rong would be thrown into a panic because of the exposure of the seal, so that he could take the opportunity to grab more of his dirt.

However, to everyone's surprise, Du Rong remained calm and did not make a move.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard had been investigating the owner of the seal, but they could not find him.

Du Rong's true seal was hidden in a place known only to himself; even his confidants did not know its location.

Leng Yuexing instructed her subordinates to hand over the letter she had obtained from Du Rong to the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

It was assumed that the Embroidered Uniform Guard would immediately launch an investigation into Du Rong after receiving the letter.

Unexpectedly, after the Embroidered Uniform Guard handed the letter to the Emperor, the matter was dropped.

Leng Yuexing waited and waited, but still did not receive the order from his father to thoroughly investigate Du Rong. He knew that his father would definitely not take action against Du Rong in the short term.

The victorious general held half of the military power, which was his best guarantee of survival.

A few days later, news spread from the palace that the neighboring Xuanwu Kingdom would send envoys to visit in two months.

The emperor decided to host a banquet for the envoys in the palace, and at the same time hold a martial arts tournament to demonstrate the strength of the Longyuan Kingdom.

Upon hearing this, the Phoenix Feather Kingdom also decided to send an envoy to visit.

Since Du Rong's great defeat of Fengyu Kingdom, Fengyu Kingdom has stopped harassing the borders of Longyuan Kingdom. However, they seem unwilling to give up, like greedy wolves, secretly watching Longyuan Kingdom, looking for the next opportunity to take advantage.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye, and the envoys from Xuanwu Kingdom and Fengyu Kingdom had already arrived in the capital of Longyuan Kingdom.

They were housed in the embassy outside the palace, awaiting the start of the court banquet and martial arts tournament.

Leng Yuexing was assigned by the emperor to receive the envoys from both countries.

The envoys from Xuanwu Kingdom and Fengyu Kingdom were easy to distinguish; the people of Xuanwu Kingdom were all strong and powerful, and looked quite robust.

The people of Phoenix Feather Kingdom are more slender and wear feather headdresses.

When Leng Yuexing entered the embassy, ​​the envoys from both countries were arguing over the location of their rooms.

Both sides looked angry, exchanging insults and hurling profanities at each other in a chaotic and heated manner.

Leng Yuexing's arrival did not attract the attention of the two sides who were hurling insults at each other. Instead, a person watching with great interest showed a look of amazement in his eyes when he saw Leng Yuexing.

He wore a blue robe characteristic of the Phoenix Feather Kingdom, and his every move exuded elegance.

He fanned himself with his feather fan, walked up to Leng Yuexing, and bowed, saying, "My lord, may I ask your name?"

"This is our Third Prince. He has come to entertain you all on the Emperor's orders." Before Leng Yuexing could speak, the Vice Minister of Rites bowed and said.

"So it's the Third Prince! I've heard that you are exceptionally handsome, like a celestial being descended to earth. Seeing you today, I can confirm that your reputation is well-deserved! I am Fang Yunsu. If I have the chance, I would love to travel around the capital with you!" Fang Yunsu said with a smile, fanning himself.

Leng Yuexing's heart skipped a beat when he heard Fang Yunsu's name. If he remembered correctly, the youngest prince of Fengyu Kingdom was named Yunsu. It was only a one-character difference, but Leng Yuexing felt that Fang Yunsu was the youngest prince Yunsu.

After thinking for a moment, he glanced at Fang Yunsu indifferently and said, "Young Master Fang is too kind. If Young Master Fang wishes to travel, I will arrange for servants to attend to him immediately."

Fang Yunsu shook her head after hearing this, "If the Third Prince can fulfill his duties as host, I would be willing."

Leng Yuexing wanted to say something more, but this was not the time for conversation. Just as the two of them were talking, the envoys from the two countries began to roll up their sleeves, ready to fight.

The Vice Minister of Rites instantly rushed between the envoys of the two countries, stretched out his hands to stop them, and said: "Gentlemen, let's talk things out. We will definitely help you solve this problem."

"Solve it? How do you intend to solve it? We want to stay in the very middle room, but you're making us stay in the rooms next door. What kind of logic is that?" the envoy from Xuanwu Kingdom complained.

"The main entrance has the best lighting, we're definitely staying there!" the envoy from Phoenix Feather Kingdom said coldly.

Leng Yuexing thought it was something else important, but she didn't expect that the envoys from the two countries were arguing about the location of the rooms.

“The room in the very center is for entertaining guests, while the rooms on the sides are for resting. So please consider changing rooms,” Leng Yuexing said as she walked over.

"No! I've got my eye on this house, I absolutely have to live here!" the envoy from Xuanwu Kingdom replied loudly.

Leng Yuexing's eyes suddenly turned cold. Among the three kingdoms, Longyuan Kingdom is now the most powerful country, and there is no room for even a small envoy from Xuanwu Kingdom to make a fuss.

He waved his hand toward the main house, and suddenly the door of the main house shattered and crashed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Leng Yuexing smiled and said, "In that case, the main room is uninhabitable. Please move to the adjacent rooms to rest."

This scene completely stunned the envoys from both countries. They looked at the shattered door, swallowed hard, and then nodded in unison, saying, "No problem, let's go to the house next door to rest now!"

All the other envoys had left, but Fang Yunsu remained where he was. His eyes gleamed as he looked at Leng Yuexing, and he walked over while fanning himself, saying, "Third Prince, you have quite the skill. May I have the honor of inviting you for a drink?"

"Excuse me, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Leng Yuexing turned and left without looking back. Fang Yunsu watched Leng Yuexing's back with great interest. He felt that he was growing to like this Third Prince more and more.

After that day, Fang Yunsu tried every means to get close to Leng Yuexing, and often appeared on Leng Yuexing's way of doing business.

The first thing he said upon meeting was to offer Leng Yuexing a drink, but she refused.

On the day of the formal banquet, the emperor, accompanied by the empress and a group of ministers, received the envoys from both countries.

The banquet was set up above the martial arts arena, and after the meal, the emperor announced the start of the martial arts tournament.

This martial arts tournament was only for the purpose of promoting national prestige, so each country only sent ten people to participate.

It started with group battles, and then the remaining people competed one by one.

After the heavy drumbeats sounded, the thirty people on the dueling platform began a chaotic battle.

After an incense stick had burned, ten people remained standing on the platform. Four of them were from Longyuan Kingdom, while the remaining six belonged to two other countries.

The second competition was a draw to determine the two-on-one duels, with the winner being the one chosen at the end.

Leng Yuexing was shocked to discover that Wenren Mo, whom she hadn't seen for several days, was among them.
