Chapter 10 Divine Power
  An inch short, an inch dangerous. An inch long, an inch strong.

The spear is four feet long, made of fine alder wood, with a diamond-shaped spear head made of fine iron, with a high ridge, a thin blade and a pointed tip. The tassel made of a red rhinoceros tail was slightly fluttering in the wind.

Jiang Shaohua has not yet grown tall, and the spear can reach her eyebrows when it hits the ground. She held it in her hand, but it was unexpectedly suitable. With a little force, she shook out a few gun flowers.

Song Yuan is known as the number one master in Nanyang Palace and a true expert. He immediately swallowed the persuasion that came to his lips and took a long knife.

Jiang Shaohua smiled slightly, and without being polite, made the first move. The spear is like a rainbow, arriving in the blink of an eye.

Song Yuan did not give way and waved his long knife to block.

Spears and knives clashed in the air, making a harsh sound. Song Yuan's right hand shook, and the long knife almost came out.

Song Yuan: "..."

Song Yuan's iron face instantly cracked, and his eyes were full of shock.

Jiang Shaohua held the spear and looked calm.

The guards who were watching the battle from a distance saw that this posture was wrong and wanted to rush over to watch the fun.

Guard Qin Hu, who was standing in the corner, quietly moved a few meters to another guard: "The princess has good skills, but she is a girl, so she is young and weak. With Commander Song's skills, the princess can do two out of ten moves." Ten moves are no big deal. This is just one move, why don’t you do it?”

Meng Sanbao was also confused and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it true? When we are trained on weekdays, we are so cruel that we don't look like humans. What does it mean to stand there and not move now?"

The personal guards of the Nanyang Palace were also divided into different levels.

The highest-ranking ones are the two hundred personal guards who have been stationed in the palace. They are the direct descendants of the personal guards brought by King Nanyang from the capital. They have practiced martial arts since childhood and started working as errands when they were fifteen or sixteen years old.

This is true for both Qin Hu and Meng Sanbao. Qin Hu was sixteen, and Meng Sanbao was two months younger than Qin Hu. Their grandfathers were royal guards, and they were already the third generation.

Qin Hu's young mind couldn't restrain his eagerness to join in the fun, so he nudged Meng Sanbao with his elbow: "Let's get closer together."

Meng Sanbao's body trembled and he almost shook his head: "No, no! I have to go to you! I don't want to be hit by a military stick!"

Qin Hu's heart trembled when he thought of the selfless Commander Song, and he quickly gave up: "Forget it, just stay as far away as possible. We are young and have good eyesight, so we can still see clearly even when we are far away."

Meng Sanbao gave Qin Hu a thumbs up: "Nothing wrong! We just have good eyesight!"

Naturally, Song Yuan didn't know about this little episode.

He took a few deep breaths, managed to calm down, and continued to swing the knife without saying a word. Jiang Shaohua refused to evade, shook his spear, and went forward to meet him.

Loudly!
  Clang clang!
  In just a few moments, guns and knives exchanged fire more than ten times.

Qin Hu and Meng Sanbao's eyes widened.

"I really can't believe that Commander Song is actually a flatterer! He's on par with a ten-year-old princess!"

"Bah, bah, bah! Don't talk nonsense. Commander Song is just playing with the princess, and he can still use his real skills. However, this acting is too realistic. The fight looks like real things."

The two of them put their heads together and watched with gusto.

The rest of the guards couldn't hold it any longer, and gathered together in twos and threes, either marveling at the princess's skills, or teasing Commander Song about his acting skills.

Only Song Yuan himself knew what it felt like.

Every time swords and guns collide, there is an irresistible force coming. He tried hard not to show his defeat, and the tiger's mouth of his right hand had been shocked to the point of numbness.

Why does the princess suddenly have such magical power?
  One force can bring down ten. Under such divine power, even all his abilities are useless.

At the fiftieth move, Song Yuan finally couldn't hold on anymore. He let go of his right hand in severe pain, and the long knife fell with a clang. The spear in the princess's hand happened to fall to the ground at the same time.

The guards' necks were almost stretched out.

At this time, the glow is fading and the sunset is getting darker. The princess stood against the light, her face a little blurry, and her eyes were as bright as water washing: "It was a lucky draw, and my uncle accepted it." Song Yuan's mood was complicated and difficult to describe, and he glanced at the calm princess: "Princess Princess..."

"I promised Chen Changshi," Jiang Shaohua said in a brisk tone, "No one will say anything about my grandfather giving me divine power in a dream."

Song Yuan: "..."

Song Yuan was silent for a moment and nodded.

This matter is too incredible and should not be made public. The fewer people who know, the better.

My right hand was so painful that I couldn't use any strength for the time being.

Song Yuan glanced at him and raised his voice: "Qin Hu, Meng Sanbao, you two come here."

The two young guards ran over in high spirits. They both looked at each other. Without waiting for Commander Song's instructions, one picked up the spear and the other picked up the long knife and sent them to the weapons room.

The rest of the guards quickly gathered around. Everyone quietly looked at Commander Song's face.

A man in his thirties who had practiced martial arts for decades had a "tie" with a ten-year-old princess. Tsk tsk! It turns out you are this kind of Commander Song!

Song Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth and silently took the blame.

Jiang Shaohua smiled silently.

Song Yuan was born as a general and practiced martial arts since he was young. He became the commander of the Nanyang Royal Guards and still practiced martial arts every day without slacking off. The guards were convinced of him, firstly because he acted impartially, and secondly, they were impressed by his extraordinary skills.

In the past, she tried her best, but she couldn't get past thirty moves in Song Yuan's hands.

Now, the God-given power made up for her lack of strength. Song Yuan only lasted fifty moves under her. This is a power that is entirely her own. She felt very happy.

"It's getting late, so I can't see clearly." Jiang Shaohua smiled energetically and said, "Come tomorrow morning to practice archery."

Song Yuan nodded in agreement.

……

This evening, Jiang Shaohua was in a very good mood. Sitting at the dinner table, his appetite was particularly good.

Yinzhu and Tubai watched helplessly as the princess cleared the dining table gracefully.

"Our princess is so powerful." Yin Zhu boasted happily: "Even her appetite is much better than that of ordinary boudoir girls."

Yinzhu's heart and eyes are full of master, and she can be called the number one princess. Whatever the princess does is good.

Tu Bai was much more honest and honest: "Princess, if you eat so much, will you accumulate food? I will bring you some hawthorn balls."

Jiang Shaohua actually didn't feel relieved at all.

My strength suddenly increased several times, and my appetite suddenly increased. This meal, at least she had enough food for three people.

Will she become a loser in the future?
  While Jiang Shaohua was thinking about it, he ate the small jar of hawthorn balls brought by Tu Bai.

Yin Zhu looked in admiration: "The princess even eats more hawthorn balls than others."

Tu Bai became even more worried: "How about I ask Dr. Sun to come and show the princess a look?"

There were originally two imperial doctors in the Nanyang Prince's Mansion. One of them retired last year, and there is still one, Imperial Physician Sun. Imperial Physician Sun lives in the palace with his wife and two children, and can be summoned at any time.

Zhang's mother happened to come in. After hearing Tu Bai's words, she suddenly became nervous: "What are you still doing? Go and ask for Dr. Sun."
