I took Xiaogua back to the palace and changed out of this artistic outfit.
"Don't worry, change slowly." Ling Xiao said calmly.
"Are you really okay?" Shen Meng hesitated.
The Dragon Clan has arrived, but as a princess, she might be blamed for not arriving in time.
"This meeting has an agreed time. It is against the rules for the Dragon Clan to arrive early instead of the Jiao Clan, so His Highness does not need to act according to etiquette."
Shen Meng shook his head and said: "Even if the other person behaves inappropriately, we should treat others with courtesy, which is the way of the state. Sister Xiaogua, help me change my makeup quickly..."
Ling Xiao gave her a slightly surprised look.
When the eldest princess became serious, she was quite presentable.
After hurriedly taking off her heavy makeup and looking like a princess, Shen Meng raised her hand to summon the jade chariot and rode out.
Xiao Gua took Ling Xiao on his arm and followed him, saying in a low voice: "It is not appropriate to rush into conflict with the Dragon Clan at the moment. You should try your best to exercise restraint and don't let them target you."
She kissed Ling Xiao gently, soothing his slightly restless heart with tenderness.
Ling Xiao said in a deep voice: "I understand."
The jade chariot goes straight to the clouds.
At this time, all the Nascent Souls guarding Jingshui City had already stepped onto the stage and intercepted the giant dragons at high altitude.
The old man in Taoist robes gently twisted his long beard and said with a smile: "The appointed time has not come yet, why did you fellow Taoists arrive in advance? You didn't even want to inform me. Are you trying to teach me how to behave improperly in court?"
While talking and laughing, a group of colleagues released their pressure and bumped into him coldly.
These giant dragons just dared to intimidate the people in the city. The Dragon Star Dynasty will not be polite to them!
No matter how arrogant and arrogant you Dragon Clan is, you don’t have the capital to be arrogant in front of the Dragon Star Dynasty!
The expressions of the giant dragons changed slightly, and they regained their arrogance. The magic light flickered, and each of them transformed into a human form.
One of the middle-aged dragons in Tsing Yi smiled indifferently, cupped his hands and said: "Qingxuan, I have met you all." He looked at the old man in Taoist robes, and paused, "Could this be Master Ming Qian? The real name is like thunder. I have also admired Qing for many years, and now we are on the same page, how lucky is it?"
Tao Mingqian, the first-rank prince and master of the Longxing Dynasty, is Mingqian.
Tao Mingqian has been famous for hundreds of years, and he is at the peak of his cultivation in the middle stage of Yuanying. He is a man of morality and humility, and an official is fair and upright. Everyone in the government and the public is convinced.
It can be said that apart from the ancestors, this person is the most powerful person in the Dragon Star Dynasty today.
Tao Mingqian's face remained as usual and he said with a smile: "I have been admiring Taoist friend Qingxuan for a long time. Everyone, this is not the place to talk. You might as well go into the city and talk."
He stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, but Qingxuan and others were indifferent.
"Master, we are not here just to drink and talk about Taoism. We actually have important matters to discuss."
Qingxuan said with a smile, and at the same time glanced at the jade chariot that finally arrived at this moment, and said loudly: "The Jiao tribe does not want to go to the island to negotiate peace, and would like to ask representatives of your dynasty to go to sea to negotiate and sign a strike agreement."
Tao Mingqian and others were startled, and then their expressions darkened.
Tao Mingqian said: "There is absolutely no room for negotiation on this matter. The Jiao tribe refuses to go to the island, and we have reason to doubt their sincerity in negotiating peace. This war may have to continue."
In wars, the losing side has always come to sign peace terms.
If they go to sea to negotiate peace, it will be nominally equivalent to the Dragon Star Dynasty being the loser. Tao Mingqian and others will never agree!
After fighting for so many years, both sides have long known that it is difficult for the Jiao Clan to take any advantage even at sea. If they continue to fight, it will be a matter of time for the Dragon Star Dynasty to win.
Under such a background, do you, the Jiao Clan, still want us to go to sea to negotiate peace?
Why did I hit the army too hard and broke your brains?
Qingxuan had already expected it, so he held up his hands and said, "Everyone has misunderstood. The Jiao Clan refuses to go to the island, and it involves some unspeakable secrets of the Monster Clan. It is not convenient to elaborate on the reason. This is the peace oath submitted by the Jiao Clan. Please read it."
The oath is a document of surrender.
Now that the Jiao clan has given their oath, it is no longer acceptable to ask for peace and admit defeat.
In this way, even if the Dragon Star Dynasty takes the initiative to go overseas to sign a contract, it only needs to tell the world about this statement, so that the world will not misunderstand the outcome of this battle.
Tao Mingqian and others read the oath form in detail and saw that the compensation for ceding land was included in it, and then their expressions became a little brighter.
"Please take a look at it, Your Highness."
Tao Mingqian delivered the oath form in front of the jade chariot.
Xiao Yu quickly took it and sent it respectfully into the curtain.
Ling Xiao suppressed a smile.
Everyone knew that Shen Meng was just a signing tool and had no right to decide any of the terms, but he still conducted the ceremony solemnly.
A few minutes later, Shen Meng's gentle voice came from the jade chariot.
"I founded the country with courtesy, accommodated the bad behavior of the barbarians, and went to sea to negotiate peace. This not only protects the common people from the suffering of war, but also enables the majesty of my country to be spread throughout the world! Mr. Tao, I am willing to go!"
Tao Mingqian solemnly raised his hands and replied: "Your Highness has a good life, and I am willing to accompany him!"
Qingxuan watched the performance of these two people with a smile, without any expression on his face. On the contrary, several powerful dragon clan men next to him showed disdain, especially disdain for human pretentiousness.
Talking about accommodating the barbarians, talking about the power of the superior state, it makes the dragon sick to hear it.
"Since everyone agreed, let's set off! The peace conference is not suitable for large crowds." Qingxuan smiled and turned to say a few words to his companions.
The other powerful dragon clan members nodded and retreated.
Tao Mingqian smiled and said: "Fellow Taoists from the Dragon Clan, don't be cautious. Once you enter our territory, we should treat you with courtesy!"
He waved his hand, and his colleagues immediately came forward to greet them, inviting a group of powerful dragon clan men into Jingshui City to entertain them.
"You should also step back." Shen Meng's instructions came from the jade chariot.
Xiaoyu, Little Lion, and Little Huzi heard this and quickly landed to escape.
Qingxuan glanced at Ling Xiao and Xiao Gua, who were motionless next to the jade chariot, and asked in surprise: "You two are young friends, are they the newest members of the younger generation of your dynasty?"
With Qingxuan's cultivation level, he could also see through the Xiaoguahu clan's true identity, and could also slightly tell that Ling Xiao's magic power was pure and extraordinary, and he must be the best among his peers.
The smile on Tao Mingqian's face stiffened slightly.
Because he found that neither Ling Xiao nor Xiao Gua had any reaction at all to Qing Xuan's question, and their attitude was extremely cold!
Are you deaf?
Senior Yuan Ying asked you, in terms of emotions and reasons, you should declare your identity, right?
Even though Qingxuan prides himself on being well-educated, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry at this moment. He waved his sleeves and said, "Master, your Dragon Star Dynasty really founded the country based on courtesy!"
The sarcastic meaning is obvious.
Tao Mingqian pretended he didn't understand, so he coughed lightly and said, "Without further delay, please ask fellow Taoist to lead the way!"
Qingxuan snorted coldly, and immediately the magic light surged, reappearing as a real dragon, and flew away in the clouds and mist.
Tao Mingqian's escaping light swept Yuyan, Ling Xiao and the others, following closely behind.
As he was flying away, Ling Xiao said with a smile: "Master, the dragon clan is really powerful. Why don't I catch a few of them and train them to pull the carriage for Her Royal Highness? Wouldn't that be impressive?"
I don’t know whether he did it on purpose or accidentally, but he didn’t shy away from saying this. Tao Mingqian clearly trembled when he saw the Qingxuan Escape Light in front of him, and the atmosphere was instantly as cold as ice!
