Ah Falcon first said "Ah", then looked at the bright yellow figure in front of him and shook his head, "To answer the girl, His Highness has never been to Xisu Kingdom."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been here, but the owner of Tianxuan Villa has lived here for a few years.

Nian Susu was even more confused, "Hasn't he been here before? Then why does he know Xisu language?"

Xisu and Liuli are separated by a great distance. Liuli speaks the Central Plains dialect, while Xisu speaks their dialect. If Tayali had not been sent as an envoy to Liuli to propose cooperation between the two countries, they would probably never have had the chance to come to Xisu in their lifetime. Even if Qin Junyu wanted to learn the language of another country, he should learn the language that is close to Liuli, not Xisu.

Ah Falcon racked his brains to come up with an excuse, "Oh, there are a few people from Xisu Country working in the East Palace, and Your Highness followed them to learn when he had nothing to do."

Afraid she wouldn't believe him, he added, "Even I learned a few phrases by osmosis."

The old man of Nian Su will be skeptical.

Qin Junyu and the Khan were still talking, and she took the opportunity to look at the king.

The Xisu Kingdom is a nation of horsemen. Both men and women are tall, strong and resistant to falling. The Khan is no exception. He has a broad face, a wide mouth, a beard, and a full-bodied smile. It is obvious that he is a person who has practiced martial arts for many years.

He has the same golden eyes as Tayali, like an eagle's eyes.

The Khatun beside him had a friendly face and wore the same veil as Tayali, but she wore it on the right forehead, with the jeweled curtain covering her right eye. She was slender, dignified, with a look of melancholy of a Jiangnan woman between her brows, and did not look like a Xisu person at all.

Nian Susu looked at Khatun's appearance carefully and felt that she should be from the Central Plains. As to whether she was from Liuli, Southern Xinjiang or Northern Rong, he was not sure.

No wonder Tayali is so petite and cute, it turns out she inherited her mother's genes.

Qin Junyu didn't know what he said to the Khan. The Khan glanced at the dozen or so trucks of goods behind them, smiled from ear to ear, and put his arm around Qin Junyu's shoulders as they walked into the city.

Nian Susu also lowered his head and followed the crowd into the city.

The Khan held a banquet in the palace to welcome them. Xisu did not have such a custom, but because of the existence of the Liuli Kingdom, he held it as a sign of respect.

After Nian Susu sat down, she noticed that someone was looking at her from the opposite side. She looked up and found that it was the man sitting opposite her.

The man wore a felt hat, a brown robe with a lapel, and a flint belt. He sat with his legs crossed, not hiding the lustful look in his eyes towards her.

This look reminded her of the wretched man she met at the inn, and she felt a chill in her spine.

This was the palace of the Western Su Kingdom. The man sitting at the same table with her must have a special status, so he shouldn't dare to do anything to her. Thinking of this, she drank a sip of hot mare's milk to calm herself down.

"What's wrong?" Qin Junyu beside her seemed to notice something was wrong with her. He followed her gaze and quickly understood.

Under the table, he held her cold fingers with his warm hands and tightened them tightly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

These words gave her great comfort. She nodded and stopped thinking about those messy things.

During the feast, Tayali pulled Khatun aside and chattered about her experiences in Liuli Country, and praised Nian Susu for her good dancing. Tayali pointed at Nian Susu and introduced her to him.

The Khatun noticed the girl sitting quietly below. Was she the young girl? She was very good-looking, and it was not surprising that she was a good dancer.

Nian Susu seemed to be aware of something and met Khatun's smiling gaze.

Khatun held Tayali's hand and said with a smile, "Miss Nian, I heard that you are a very good dancer. Tayali has been praising you to me since we got to the city gate."

Nian Susu didn't want to be in the spotlight, but he had to stand up and say, "Princess, you are too kind. Compared with you, it's just like showing off one's sword in front of Guan Gong."

The Khatun smiled even more.

Nian Susu had guessed correctly that Khatun was from the Central Plains. No one else in Xisu State knew what "showing off one's sword in front of Guan Gong" meant, but Khatun was the only one who could not only speak fluent Central Plains dialect but also understand the allusions.

Speaking of dancing, Nian Qiaoyue gets angry. Not only did she make a fool of herself that time, but Nian Susu also stole the limelight!

She was sulking and had a bad attitude towards Qin Fengtian.

Qin Fengtian felt very wronged when he handed over the peeled grapes and was still looked down upon. He asked her in a low voice, "What's wrong, my aunt? Who has offended you again?"

Nian Qiaoyue said nothing and turned her head away ignoring him.

Qin Fengtian peeled another grape in a flattering manner, "Little Ancestor, this is at the palace banquet of Xisu State, can you just behave yourself?"

Qin Fengtian, who is always prone to getting into trouble, actually said this. It shows how powerful the nemesis of another is.

He looked around at the opposite side, all of whom were important figures from the Xisu Kingdom. If they caught him with anything, he would lose his life.

Nian Qiaoyue knew that he was telling the truth and didn't dare to turn her face away. She sat up straight, but she was still thinking about how to teach Nian Susu a lesson.

Her eyes moved and fell on the man opposite Nian Susu. The man had been looking at Nian Susu with lustful eyes, and he must have taken a fancy to her.

"Your Highness, do you know who that is?" Nian Qiaoyue pushed Qin Fengtian.

Qin Fengtian stuffed dried fruits in his mouth and looked in the direction she pointed. "Oh, that, that's the second prince. The second prince is brave and good at fighting. He has captured many cities for the Xisu Kingdom. The Khan likes him very much and intends to make him the... the next Khan." He couldn't remember what the prince of Xisu was called for a moment, so he changed the way he said it, "The next Khan."

Nian Qiaoyue suddenly realized, "Your Majesty, you actually know so much, it's amazing."

Qin Fengtian scratched his head embarrassedly. In fact, he heard all these things from the servants around Tayali when he was bored on the way here.

They said that the second prince was the most respected person in the entire Xisu Kingdom except for the Khan.

Nian Qiaoyue already had a plan in mind. Since the second prince had made so many contributions, the Khan would definitely give him the woman he liked. If he could ask for Nian Susu's hand in public...

She was so happy that she laughed out loud just thinking about Nian Susu going away from her hometown and marrying to Xisu, thousands of miles away, and never seeing this annoying guy again.

Qin Fengtian was a little worried about her. She was angry and gloomy just now, but now she is secretly happy. Her emotions fluctuate so much. Does she have delusions?

Nian Qiaoyue suddenly stood up and saluted the Khan and Khatun, "Khan, Miss Nian's dance moved the whole city, and the princess has seen it before. Now we have come all the way to Xisu, and the Khan and Khatun have treated us with good wine and delicious food, so why not let Miss Nian dance again to liven up the atmosphere."

Although she didn't want to admit it, Nian Susu's dancing was indeed as beautiful as a fairy from the nine heavens. If the Second Prince saw it, he would definitely fall in love with Nian Susu.

"Yue'er, what are you doing?" Qin Fengtian reached out to pull her, squeezing out a few words from between his teeth, "Don't cause trouble."

He didn't know what Nian Qiaoyue was trying to do, but his instinct told him that it wasn't a good thing.
