Chapter 18 The Familiar Back View 1
The next day, King Jing led the army to go out. This time, the emperor temporarily handed over the national treasure, the Fire Lingzhu, to King Jing for safekeeping to help him deal with the snake.

As the vanguard general, Nie Shuang also went together, and Zhilan and Qingyan stood at the gate of the city to see them off.

"I hope my father and Nie Shuang can return safely." Zhilan looked different today, her eyes were full of tenderness.

Qingyan was also secretly praying in her heart that her father could return in triumph.A figure from the back appeared in front of her eyes again, so familiar, it seemed that this figure was instantly revived some kind of memory in her.

She recognized him at a glance as the eldest grandson Xu of the Fourth Prince of Dongshu Kingdom. He was the one who gave her the little fox in his arms that day, and secretly kissed her on the cheek.

"Brother Xu—" A scream sounded, and Qingyan and Zhilan's goosebumps immediately wrinkled.

Immediately afterwards, Princess Tantai Pingning appeared out of nowhere, looking at Changsun Xu with a very innocent look.

"Qingyan, it seems that your Prince Xu is about to be seduced by a certain princess!" Zhilan sneered, and looking at Prince Xu, she didn't seem to be very enthusiastic about Pingning at all.

Changsun Xu was a guest at the Eastern Shu Palace recently, and he was very interested when he heard that there were snakes on the border of the Southern Jin Dynasty, so he asked Emperor Tantai Teng to go with King Jing to subdue the snakes.

Qingyan ignored Zhilan's joke, and said with frowned eyebrows: "The Southern Kingdom has the Fire Spirit Orb, and the eldest son of the Eastern Kingdom, Sun Xu, has the Water Spirit Orb. These two Spirit Orbs have their own power. When combined, they are powerful enough to shake the world."

"Ah, what are you talking about?" Zhilan stared blankly at her sister.

Qingyan walked over in a hurry, and bowed to her father, King Jing saw Qingyan coming, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"My daughter just wants to see her father off at the gate of the city." Qingyan said, and then exchanged glances with Changsun Xu.

Pingning squinted at Qingyan: "So it's you, you idiot."

Qingyan's eyes moved to Changsun Xu, and asked: "It is said that Prince Xu has water spirit beads in his body to protect him, is that so?"

Chang Sun Xu also recognized this girl, was a little surprised at her sudden question, and replied, "That's right."

"Tengsnake belongs to the fire element, but it is good at water. The fire pearl can resist the snake. I don't know how powerful it is. If you use the fire pearl and the water spirit pearl together, you may have unexpected results." Qingyan said to Changsun Xu and Prince Jing. Said.

There was a smile on Changsun Xuben's serious face, and he thought so too. He didn't expect that this little girl would understand Teng Snake.

"Cough cough cough—" Prince Jing coughed a few times, afraid that others would suspect Qing Yan, "Okay, this is what my father told you yesterday, and you don't need to remind me now."

Pingning had just noticed the gleam in Changsun Xu's eyes, he seemed to admire Qing Yan's appearance, and suddenly he couldn't get rid of his anger, and said with a smile: "I thought the idiot had become smarter, so it turned out that he was using other people's words to show off."

Changsun Xu heard that Pingning's words were so unpleasant, so he said coldly: "It looks like a fool, maybe it's wise and stupid. It looks smart, maybe it's stupid."

He was actually speaking for her, a warm current flowed through Qingyan's heart, and she smiled gratefully at Elder Sun Xu.

"Brother Xu, she's just a big idiot!" Pingning rolled her eyes at Qingyan, stomped her feet angrily, and looked at Eldest Sun Xu with a lovely and pitiful look.

Changsun Xu didn't bother to look at Pingning at all. Ever since he came to the Southern Palace, he had been pestered by this unruly and willful princess all the way.
