At the first sight of Ying Yue, Nangong Hong knew that Ying Yue was a smart girl, she knew what she should do, and she did have certain means and ability to act.
From some angles, Yingyue is indeed a lovable girl: she is indeed pretty enough, and this alone is almost enough. As long as a woman has super good looks and is a little worse in other aspects, it will be fine.
It won't be particularly offensive.
However, Nangong Hong is worried about another aspect: what their local faction needs is a flag, which is simply a symbol. A flag and a symbol do not require wisdom, she just needs to make a vase.
The most important thing Ying Yue should do is to sit in her seat honestly, give birth to children without moving, enjoy life, and keep her mouth shut when she doesn't need to speak.
The biggest fear is that this woman who thinks she is smart starts doing things - it would be okay if she could be really smart, but the biggest fear is that she thinks she is smart and starts doing stupid things!
Judging from the map, this girl still belongs to the kind of activist. She does some things when she really thinks of them. This is the most dangerous thing for Nangong Hong and Li Ao.
If this woman who represents the local faction ends up with an unseemly end, then they local factions will definitely be implicated.
Thinking of this, he had to remind her of this flag, so that she would not do stupid things at the critical moment: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is a smart person, and I have a few heartfelt words that I would like to say to Her Royal Highness here."
"Master Nangong, you don't have to be polite. If you have anything to say, you can just say it." Yingyue knew that the only person she could rely on in the Tang Empire was the minister named Nangong Hong in front of her.
Other ministers were either not easy to get in touch with, or they had a natural conflict with her, so her attitude was very friendly.
She does have an advantage in this regard, because she is a beauty, a beauty with incredible looks. In this regard, as long as she is willing to condescend, the other party will usually express due goodwill.
Nangong Hong really wanted to say something at this moment: "Well done on the map, don't do it next time."
However, he did not say that, but reminded Weiran: "This map is of no use, because the Tang Empire has a more accurate map of Qin. This kind of thing can show your position, but it does make people doubt you."
Loyalty, everything has two sides, there are gains and losses, it is not a one-step move."
When she heard that the Tang Empire already had a map of Qin with higher accuracy, Ying Yue knew that she was being reckless.
On the one hand, she finally knew how far a person's ambition could expand: the emperor of the Tang Empire had already begun plotting against a country like Qin, which was far away from the Tang Dynasty.
On the other hand, her act of presenting the map did have two sides. She had already considered this before presenting the map. What she had thought before was that the map was very important, and the other party would ignore her loyalty because of this.
A small flaw.
But now things have to be considered differently: the Tang Empire has a map of Qin, so the matter of her presenting the map is not that important, and the flaws related to loyalty will be magnified...
Nangong Hong was very happy to see Ying Yue lost in thought. At least until now, Ying Yue's IQ was much better than he expected.
Therefore, he opened his mouth and continued to remind patiently: "In the Tang Empire, there are no explicit factions, or to be more accurate, the relationship between the respective factions is competition rather than strife."
Some people are worthy of others investing time and energy to support them. This is because these people have corresponding value.
If it were placed on those who have no value, Nangong Hong would not bother to say more nonsense. Ying Yue has shown a certain value, so Nangong Hong is willing to invest more in this aspect.
This is also a kind of investment. If the other party really listens, the benefits may be fed back to him.
So he paused and then continued: "All officials are promoted or dismissed based on their own abilities and work performance. So there is no so-called surrender here, everyone just cares about certain common interests."
I am just trying my best to provide some support and help based on my beliefs and identity.”
Seeing Ying Yue listening attentively, Nangong Hong finally reminded: "The premise of doing this is not to harm the interests of the Tang Empire, so if something is overdone and something goes wrong, causing His Majesty's dissatisfaction
, you can only bear the consequences yourself, others cannot count on it."
This was also the most important thing that he worried about Yingyue's misunderstanding: In the Tang Empire, colluding with ministers to form factions would not be successful! That was not a way of settling down, but a way of seeking death.
The real way for ministers to protect themselves is to do good things. This has been true since the time of Bunas and it has not changed to this day.
If there is corruption, as long as it is discovered, they will definitely be dismissed from their posts and investigated, even the old people from the Bunas era. Only those who work peacefully and have outstanding achievements will be reused.
This is also the reason why a group of local factions quickly emerged within the Datang Empire: they are really capable of doing things, such as Feng Kezhi, Qian Jinhang, and the backbone of the Tang Dynasty who have become division commanders and mayors.
"...I understand." The smart Yingyue immediately grasped the key point between Nangonghong's words: the other party was telling her that there is no future in forming gangs, and that everyone's interests are potential and cannot be placed on the table.
Serve as a link on the countertop.
This is actually good news: if the local faction cannot openly support her, then the outside faction will definitely not dare to openly oppose her.
In fact, she guessed it right: if they really dared to be blatantly hostile to her, many generals of the Bunas faction might have sent people to kill her on the way.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the eyes of these elders with military power, intercepting a train and killing a princess is actually not as simple as an internal exercise assessment within the Tang Empire.
Seeing Ying Yue's look of understanding, Nangong Hong nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "Your Highness can gain the support of some people, and naturally he will also be hostile to some people. This is why His Majesty is willing to accept you.
, Your Majesty, please be cautious, think more and do less... The right way is to do more and make more mistakes, to do less and make fewer mistakes, and to do nothing is better."
This means asking Yingyue to be a vase and let her position herself properly and not to cause trouble to the foreign ministers of the local faction.
As expected, Yingyue was also smart as ice and snow, and she said bluntly: "I understand what Lord Nangong means. Don't fight for power or favor. I will fulfill my duty as a royal concubine, because I have already earned the chance to become a royal concubine."
Nangong Hong was even more satisfied. It was obvious that Princess Yingyue was a really smart woman and she would not be so stupid as to be smart. This was great news for him.
So he personally opened the car door to greet Princess Yingyue, bowed slightly and praised: "Your Highness is smart as ice and snow, so I won't make any noise."
The princess did not get in the car, but turned sideways and asked: "Thank you, Mr. Nangong, for reminding me. So tell me, should I dedicate this picture or not?"
Nangong Hong answered the question calmly, and at the same time reminded Ying Yue of the power of the intelligence department of the Tang Empire: "In the Tang Empire, there is nothing that can be hidden from His Majesty. I will report today's incident truthfully. Your Highness should
Please continue to do whatever you are doing."
Hearing what Nangong Hong said, Ying Yue smiled even brighter: "Interesting, interesting! The Tang Empire is really different. I think I probably understand some of the reasons why the Tang Empire was strong."
Nangong Hong held the car door with his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Your Highness, please take your time and watch. You will soon find out how enviable it is to be the imperial concubine of the Tang Empire."
Yingyue got into the car, raised her head and nodded to Nangong Hong inside the car, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Nangong."
Only then did she have time to look at the Dongfengjiang Station in front of her, and found that although the station here looked simple, it was larger than the Dahua Imperial City Station she had seen.
The huge pillars supporting the rain cover of the train station platform are all white, with a diameter of almost two and a half meters, and they are full of momentum.
Compared to the stations in the Dahua Empire, everything here is extremely simple. But the simplicity is overflowing with power. The steel bars are spread out overhead, and the lights are dotted like stars.
, giving people a more advanced sense of grandeur.
Yingyue knew that this was just Dongfengjiang, just a station in a border city. She was looking forward to the station in Chang'an City, which must be more magnificent.
It was only then that she noticed that the car she was riding in seemed to be a Rolls-Royce that she had never seen before: Yingyue also had her own car in Qin, but that export-oriented Rolls-Royce,
Obviously it is not as exquisite as the high-end version used by the royal family of the Tang Dynasty.
It was only at this moment that Ying Yue realized what true luxury was: the interior decoration of the car she was riding in was so exaggerated that she couldn't help but feel a little restrained while sitting in it.
When her personal maid also got into the car, the car started: they would stay here for one night and fly to Chang'an early the next morning.
The safety factor of flying in Datang is actually very high, and it is far less dangerous than in other countries. Yingyue took a plane specially arranged by the diplomatic department arranged by Nangong Hong, and the safety level will only be higher.
Ying Yue arrived at the airport early the next morning and saw a specially modified 130 transport aircraft. It was safer than the dc3 transport aircraft widely used in other countries, and it was also larger.
As for the 3,000 elite Qin troops who came with Ying Yue, they naturally could not go to Chang'an: they had been disarmed and stayed in Fengjiang to wait for their families to arrive.
These people will then be dispersed to various parts of the Tang Dynasty, register to join the Tang Empire, and become a true Tang people.
It no longer matters what the future holds for these people, because their most important mission of escorting them has been completed. Being able to come to Tang State and become Tang people will make them stable and worry-free for the rest of their lives. They will continue to live in Tang State and start a new life.
