The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 327

The princess cheered and, accompanied by four shrewish old women who looked like demons, said, "Since that's the case, hurry up and help me onto the camel. These past few days, I've been eating instant noodles and dried salted fish, and my teeth are starting to ache."

Dongfang Tingyun said from the side, "I'll serve the princess instead."

Princess Jinyang nodded happily. Qin Xian awkwardly shifted his gaze away from Dongfang Tingyun and turned to look at Xu Tian, ​​who was smiling behind him.

"Grand Tutor."

Xu Tian nodded: "Why don't you call me 'Your Highness' anymore?"

Qin Xian's face turned red, and he said, "Please, Grand Tutor, do not tease me."

Xu Tian nodded, and then Qin Xian dragged him onto the camel. He thought to himself, "The Anxi Protectorate is right next to the Yuezhi and Kangju Kingdoms. It sounds like they're collecting protection money!"

The Anxi Protectorate, which guards the Western Regions, has already acted like these dogs, but seeing how happy Jin Yang and Master Dongfang are, they decided to let it go and not pursue the matter further.

After a day of riding camels, Jinyang seemed listless, and even Master Dongfang looked pale.

Jin Yang wanted to turn around and look at Xu Tian, ​​but found that Xu Tian was being carried by Qin Xian and several of his soldiers. There was even a bamboo tent on the stretcher, which looked like a place to escape the summer heat.

Jinyang was immediately thrown into chaos.

“Master Xu, this is really something! You are the one who went on this mission to the Western Regions! This is just like a landlord collecting rent.”

Dongfang Tingyuan nodded in agreement. Seeing Qin Xian and his soldiers covered in sweat, he advised, "Master Xu should be self-reliant and strong. You shouldn't build your happiness on the suffering of others."

Upon hearing this, several soldiers immediately revealed kind smiles, realizing that Master Dongfang was indeed very understanding.

Xu Tian smiled faintly, then pulled out half a watermelon from somewhere, took a bite, and said, "Very well, I am the Grand Tutor personally appointed by the Emperor, in charge of the army of the whole country. Although it is a nominal position, moreover, given my friendship with Li Er, shouldn't they be treated this way?"

Seeing that Xu Tian was becoming increasingly ill-mannered, Princess Jinyang immediately said, "Master Xu, you are too wicked!"

As he spoke, his face turned cold, and he almost fell off the camel.

Xu Tian sat up immediately. Luckily, he had Huoxiang Zhengqi Water with him. He then tore open his clothes, and Dongfang Tingyun's face immediately turned red. She turned her head away and felt a cool sensation all over her body.

Xu Tian really disregarded the proper separation between men and women.

The soldiers, however, spoke with smiles.

“Grand Tutor, it is indeed hot marching in the desert, but if you take off your clothes, the sweat will evaporate through the clothes and you will easily become dehydrated.”

Another speaker said, "A few years ago, when the Great Tang Dynasty went to war against Goguryeo, the two armies fought in the desert. Many soldiers did not die from the enemy's swords, but died inexplicably from severe dehydration."

Xu Tian's lips twitched. He saw Princess Jinyang lying down on the camel, and then revealed his signature gentle smile.

"What are you afraid of? With me here, you won't die even if you want to. This is a medicine I personally prepared that has the effect of relieving heatstroke."

Xu Tian thought of his girlfriend Zhuzhu in the modern world, who was very considerate and attentive to him. Every summer, she not only had cooling gadgets, but also carried a summer heat-relieving medicine in her bag, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water! He was truly suffering because of this.

In front of a modern skyscraper, Xu Tian, ​​wearing a gray trench coat and a brown sweater, stood carrying his girlfriend's bag.

"Honey, are we still going shopping today? My mom called and wants us to come home for dinner."

Zhu Zhu immediately took her handbag off Xu Tian's neck.

“Honey, I still have a lot of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water in my bag. If you don’t drink it, it will expire. Autumn is just around the corner.”
