Chapter 26: Lessons learned(1/2)

Shen Xiyao narrowed her eyes slightly and read two words from between her teeth.

"Shameless!"

"This deputy is shameless, and it's not your turn to comment. You ruined my good deeds, so use yourself to make up for it."

Hu Shichang said with narrowed eyes.

As he spoke, several blue-shirted guards turned their swords and surrounded Shen Xiyao.

"Come here, take her back to the inn. Master, I will teach her a lesson tonight."

"yes!"

The blue-shirted guards were ready to go forward and catch Shen Xiyao.

Li Huan was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he quickly walked to Hu Shichang to stop him and said, "No deputy envoy! This is Shen Xiyao, my granddaughter of the North Hebei Marquis, who is a fifth-rank official in the court."

Hu Shichang glanced at Li Huan from the corner of his eye, turned his eyes again, stared at Shen Xiyao in the field, and said with a half-smile.

"Oh! This is the legendary female official of the Wei Dynasty? Not bad! Oh my God, I will also ask my concubines to change into court clothes and try what it feels like."

When Shen Xiyao heard this, her face was full of shame and anger. She rushed to the nearest blue-shirted guard, grabbed his wrist with her left hand, and broke it outward, exposing the gap between his chest and abdomen. He came out and slapped his chest with his right hand.

This time Shen Xiyao took action with anger. When she took action before, Shen Xiyao showed mercy.

The guard spit out a mouthful of blood and let go of the sword. Shen Xiyao gently caught it with her right hand and grabbed the sword. Then she turned around and turned to the side of Hu Shichang, and the sword in her hand also turned. It stopped firmly on his neck from the side and back.

Shen Xiyao moved too fast. With this series of movements, no one expected that Hu Shichang, who was still talking one moment, had already fallen into Shen Xiyao's hands.

"If you insult an official of the Wei Dynasty, believe it or not, I will kill you right now."

"If you kill me, believe it or not, it will immediately trigger a war between the two countries."

Shen Xiyao sneered.

"Anyway, you were already dead by then."

"I……"

Hu Shichang opened his mouth but did not dare to speak. He stood there without daring to move. Cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.

The guards were too anxious to bother confronting Zhi Jinwu anymore. They all rushed over and surrounded Shen Xiyao.

"Let go of our young master quickly."

Shen Xiyao ignored the threats of these guards and still forced Hu Shichang with her sword.

"Let him go."

"Don't even think about it. I won't let you go."

Hearing this, the sword in Shen Xiyao's hand immediately got a little closer.

Hu Shichang immediately felt so fragrant and spread his hands on both sides of his shoulders.

The young woman immediately escaped from Hu Shichang's arms.

The young man who had been pinned to the ground rushed up, and without caring about the public, he held the young woman in his arms and comforted her softly.

"good!"

The people around him had long been filled with anger, and they couldn't help but clapped their hands and applauded, and the cheers suddenly broke out.

Shen Xiyao didn't even look away, still staring at Hu Shichang.

"You guys go quickly."

The young woman raised her head from her husband's arms, stopped her tears, and blessed Shen Xiyao.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor, for saving me."

The husband also followed suit.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor."

The long sword in Shen Xiyao's hand came a little closer and pressed against the skin of Hu Shichang's neck. The long sword was also quite sharp. Red marks appeared on the skin of Hu Shichang's neck, and a trace of blood came out.

"Get out of the way quickly."

The guards looked at each other and hurriedly made way for a passage without waiting for their master's instructions.

The couple was about to leave quickly when Shen Xiyao spoke again.

"Deputy Ambassador Hu, it's not easy for this couple. You've messed up their business, leaving them with no way to make a living."

"Give it to them."

Hu Shichang was under a low eaves and had to bow his head.

A guard on the side took out his purse from his arms and just took out a handful of copper coins.

Shen Xiyao looked at Hu Shichang with a half-smile.

"Give gold, give gold."

Hu Shichang shouted hurriedly when he saw Shen Xiyao's appearance.

The guard put the copper coins back angrily, took out two golden melon seeds, and handed them to the couple.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor."

The couple saluted again.

Shen Xiyao tilted her head slightly and signaled the two of them to leave quickly.

Seeing that the two of them had walked away, Shen Xiyao said slowly: "It's time to talk about our affairs. Let your people put down their weapons."

The surrounding Zhi Jinwu and the yamen servants of Jingzhao Mansion already knew Shen Xiyao's identity. Looking at the situation in front of them, they drew their swords and raised their sticks, surrounding all the generals and guards.

The captain who led Jinwu yelled angrily at the guards.

"Put down your weapons!"

The Yamen who were in charge of Jinwu and Jingzhao Mansion had not dared to move lightly because they were worried about each other's identity. They were humiliated by these Nanchu envoys and were filled with anger. When they saw this, they also shouted loudly.

"Put down your weapons!"

"Put down your weapons!"

The expressions of several other Nanchu envoys changed greatly, and they looked at everything in front of them with some horror.

A group of guards were at a loss. You looked at me, I looked at you, and finally they all focused on Hu Shichang.

Hu Shichang opened his mouth several times and managed to say a word.

"Put away your weapons."

After hearing what Hu Shichang said, the guards secretly breathed a sigh of relief and sheathed their long swords.

Hu Shichang remembered something and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Master Li, Master Li, save me!"

The other envoys also had an idea and hurriedly looked around for Li Huan, but there was still Li Huan there.

As early as the moment Shen Xiyao seized the sword, Li Huan knew that it was not good. No matter which party had the problem, he would not be able to explain it.

But before he could make any move, Hu Shichang was already restrained by Shen Xiyao. When Li Huan saw something was wrong, he sneaked out of the crowd and ran away.

The few people couldn't find Li Huan, so they had no choice but to go forward.

"Commander, we are the envoys of Da Chu. Your treatment of envoys in this way goes against the teachings of the saints."

Shen Xiyao glanced sideways a few times.

"Then you rape the women of the people in my country, Wei Dynasty, and speak rudely. Is this the teaching of the sage?"

"this……"

Several people were speechless and thought for a moment before speaking again.

"Anyway, we are here to celebrate Emperor Wei's birthday this time, and we hope Shen Changshi will let Hu Shichang go for the sake of our traveling thousands of miles."

"If it weren't for His Majesty's sake, he would be dead now."

Shen Xiyao's cold and forceful words sent a few people back.

"Shen, what do you want? Ah..."

Shen Xiyao was not used to him. She glanced at Hu Shichang coldly, and with a little force on the long sword in her hand, blood immediately flowed down.

"Apologize! Apologize!"

Shen Xiyao uttered four words coldly.

Hu Shichang sticks his neck.

"Master, I..."

"Um?"

The long sword in Shen Xiyao's hand needs to be exerted again.

Hu Shichang didn't dare to go any further and felt a little aggrieved.
To be continued...
