Xiao Mingrui and Meng Jingchen did not show any surprise, but Xiao Mingxu and others were very excited.

"The Water Dragon Star Sword, that was originally ours!"

Jiang Tunan was confused. This sword seemed very important. Everyone's mood changed because of the appearance of this name.

"What is Water Dragon Star Sword?"

Xiao Mingrui wanted to explain, but Xiao Mingxu got there first.

"That is our founding sword, the masterpiece of a very famous swordsmith. It is said that it can cut iron like mud and blow away hair like a blade."

Jiang Tunan turned his head and stared at Xiao Mingxu.

"Cousin, you are awesome. You said two idioms in one breath."

Xiao Mingxu's face was downcast.

"You're not cute anymore, Xiao Nan Nan!"

Jiang Tunan immediately asked again,

"Then why is it in the hands of the big yin man?"

"because..."

Xiao Mingrui started to explain, but Xiao Mingxu was quicker than him.

"Because it was stolen by the Dayin people with conspiracy and trickery! That happened in the previous dynasty. At that time, Dayin invaded Daxing, and the late emperor led the army in person. Just when they were about to win, Dayin used an extremely powerful poison, which killed countless soldiers and caused the border town to fall."

There was sorrow in Xiao Mingxu's eyes.

"At that time, the border town became a slaughterhouse for the Great Yin people. No matter soldiers or civilians, they could not escape the cruelty of the Great Yin people. Countless treasures were taken away. The sword of the late emperor, the Water Dragon Star Sword, was also lost in that war."

Jiang Tunan no longer had the desire to play around like he did at the beginning, and asked in a low voice,

"What then?"

"later.."

"Later, it was the genius doctor Wen Zhaowen who developed a method to deal with the poison. So the Prince of Guangping, who was only a small general at the time, led 5,000 elite troops to defeat Dayin's 20,000-strong army and became famous in one battle. Later, our army attacked Dayin's headquarters until Dayin surrendered and became a vassal state of Daxing. Now it pays tribute every year."

Xiao Mingrui: Okay, okay, go ahead and talk.

Jiang Tunan was a little depressed because she thought of her own country, which had also suffered such hardships.

"So the Water Dragon Star Sword was stolen by the Big Yin at that time?"

Xiao Mingxu scratched his head. He didn't know the specific process of how the Water Dragon Star Sword came into the hands of Dayin.

Xiao Mingrui stared at Xiao Mingxu without saying a word, and Jiang Tunan was also waiting for Xiao Mingxu to explain.

Xiao Mingrui: Keep talking. Keep talking.

"Why are you all looking at me? I don't know."

Xiao Mingrui coughed twice to attract everyone's attention.

"At that time, the Water Dragon Star Sword was taken to Dayin along with other looted treasures from Daxing, and fell into the hands of treasure collectors in Dayin. It was later discovered by the Dayin royal family, who renamed it the Seven Star Sword and put it into the national treasury."

"But didn't Dayin lose the war? Shouldn't they be asked to return the stolen items?"

Jiang Tunan felt aggrieved. Why did these devils act like bandits wherever they went?

"Some of it was indeed returned, but they were all ordinary things. The valuable ones were still in Dayin. Later, Daxing also asked for it back, but Dayin refused on the grounds that it was impossible to forcibly confiscate the people's property. Because the armistice agreement had just been signed at that time, Daxing could not pursue it to the end, and the matter was left unresolved."

Xiao Mingrui looked helpless, and Jiang Tunan could understand because in her own country, there were also many cultural relics waiting to be returned home. Looters always thought that time would make people forget all their crimes, but some people would always remember them and pass them down from generation to generation.

Taro Sakai slapped his palm on the table, making a loud noise.

"I think your healing is fake, and your real intention is to steal the sword!"

"Rob?"

A dangerous gleam flashed across Meng Jingchen's eyes.

"It is our Daxing's treasure. How can you say it is being robbed?"

He finally understood that Taro Sakai had no intention of having a good talk with him from the beginning, and that the country of Daiyin was not as united as it seemed.

Xiao Mingrui said calmly,

"Does your prince's life mean less to you than a sword, Lord Sakai?"

Taro Sakai was already sweating profusely. Who on earth leaked the news?

"My Lord! The two princes are almost outside the gates of Kyoto."

"what?!"

Taro Sakai was a little flustered. Why did the two princes come so quickly? The current trouble has not been solved yet. If the eldest prince and the seventh prince knew that he had changed sides, he would probably end up in a miserable state.

Taro Sakai narrowed his eyes dangerously and scanned Jiang Tunan's face. No matter what, this woman must not be kept!

"Our prince has arrived. I'm sorry I can't continue entertaining him."

"In that case, we'll leave."

Xiao Mingxu and his companions couldn't wait to leave.

"Wait! She can't leave!"

Taro Sakai pointed at Jiang Tunan, his eyes showing that he would not tolerate rejection. The guards surrounded Xiao Mingrui and the others, and Meng Jingchen stood beside them, with his eyebrows slightly raised, looking like he was watching a show.

Xiao Mingrui stood in front of Jiang Tunan and met Sakai Taro's gaze.

"What do you mean, sir?"

Taro Sakai showed no sign of retreating and said,

"This woman is hiding in my room and acting sneaky. I think she has bad intentions and wants to destroy the relationship between Daxing and Dayin. She must be locked up and interrogated."

Jiang Tunan was really confused. Why did this matter involve her again?

"I'm afraid Lord Sakai has misunderstood."

Xiao Mingrui frowned slightly, expressing subtle dissatisfaction.

"Then ask her to explain why she hid under the table?"

Xiao Mingrui was also stunned. What was Jiang Tunan doing before he came? He looked at Jiang Tunan, but he didn't look at him. He could only look at Meng Jingchen. Meng Jingchen sighed softly, revealing a trace of helplessness.

"I've already said she's my dancer, but you don't agree."

Xiao Mingrui's eyes twitched slightly, but he still said calmly,

"My cousin is still young and likes to play. Lord Sakai, please don't bother with a child like her."

Jiang Tunan was shocked. Oh no, she had become a naughty child. But she was still a naughty child, at least she had Xiao Mingrui, the naughty parent, to take care of things.

"Yeah, yeah, why are you arguing with a child?"

Jiang Tunan also shamelessly hid behind Xiao Mingrui and said a few words. After all, it was Xiao Mingrui who started it. But to be honest, it feels good to be a naughty child.

Xiao Mingrui: ...

"You are so big, are you still a child?"

Taro Sakai also didn't expect that these two people could say such shameless words without blushing or feeling any heartbeat (their hearts were still beating).

"Yeah, my cousin is just still young!"

Xiao Mingxu also shouted, and pushed Ji Yichen and the others behind him, who could only agree with him.

"Yeah, yeah, but I'm still young."

Taro Sakai: What a shameless bunch!

Jiang Tunan was talking nonsense in a serious tone.

"You are not from Daxing, so you may not understand our customs. However, here, adults must not argue with children, otherwise you will look like a bitch."

Taro Sakai: "What is that?"

"That's exactly that, don't you know that?"

Jiang Tunan said to Sakai Taro with a look of disappointment on his face,

"You have such a high-speed operating mechanism entering Daxing, remember the principle I gave you."

Taro Sakai: I know every word, but I just don’t understand how they are put together.

"Baga! I don't care about you, just catch her!"

Jiang Tunan: ! !

Xiao Mingrui was ready to take Jiang Tunan out at any time, and Xiao Mingxu and others also wanted to protect Jiang Tunan.

Jiang Tunan: Touched!

"and many more."

A woman's voice came from the door. She was wearing a crabapple red brocade skirt embroidered with a hundred flowers pattern, and had a snake bun on her head. She had a few simple gold hairpins inserted in her hair, but the hairpins were exquisitely made and obviously of great value.

"It's not good for Lord Sakai to cause trouble in my Nagaha like this."

"and who are you?"

Taro Sakai thought that he was unlucky today. Why was there always someone to stop him at the critical moment?

"My name is Huangfu Yue."
