Tang Yin looked at Cui Teng in confusion and asked with a smile: "How can Prime Minister Cui say this?"
Cui Teng first looked at Lingshuang, then took a deep breath, stood up, took two steps forward, and said in a loud voice: "The palace is the land of the royal family, noble and solemn, but it is built right next to my Jade Palace.
Don’t His Highness Feng Wang think it’s out of place to build a military camp?”
That's it! Tang Yin looked around at the ministers of the Jade Kingdom present, and they all nodded. It was obvious that the Jade Kingdom's court had some complaints about stationing troops next to the palace.
He rolled his eyes, turned his head, smiled at Lingshuang, held her hand at the same time, and said leisurely: "Wang sister is my wife, as a husband, it is my duty to protect my wife, and it should be right."
.Setting up a garrison outside the palace may be unsightly, but it can better protect the safety of the royal sister. I believe everyone can understand this. Unless some people have ulterior motives and attempt to kill the king and usurp the throne, then of course they urgently hope that the king will withdraw.
Remove the garrison to make things easier for him."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed. Cui Teng was so angry that his face turned red and his body trembled. He suppressed his anger and asked in a solemn voice: "Does His Highness King Feng think that this old minister has disobedient intentions?
"
Tang Yin smiled and said: "Cui Xiang has assisted Wang Mei for many years. I believe in your loyalty."
"So, His Highness the Wind King thinks that the Jade Kingdom is unable to protect its own monarch?" Cui Teng asked aggressively.
"If you had that ability, you would not have let the Mo'an coalition forces smash the country's gate and reach the capital city, and Wang Mei would not have to risk her life to go to Mo Country to join the king. The ministers are incompetent, and the king is in danger! Now there is no need to
What qualifications do you have to mention the word 'ability' in front of this king?!" Tang Yin was not someone who was easy to bully. These words were so powerful that many ministers of the Jade Kingdom blushed and lowered their heads subconsciously.
Cui Teng opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time without uttering a word. The old man was so angry that he could not speak.
The atmosphere in the main hall quickly became tense, and several angry generals from the Jade Kingdom had already grasped the hilts of their swords and glared at Tang Yin.
Seeing this, Lingshuang cleared her throat and shouted in a deep voice: "Today is to help Brother Wang wash away the dust, not to get together and quarrel."
As she spoke, she said apologetically to Tang Yin beside her: "Brother Wang, although Prime Minister Cui's words were excessive, he did so out of sincerity for the country of Jade and Wang Mei. I hope Brother Wang will not take offense."
Of course, Tang Yin was not willing to make the matter a big deal. Since Lingshuang stepped forward to make peace, he followed the trend and said: "Wang Mei is serious. Wang Mei's ministers are also Wei brother's ministers in the eyes of Brother Cui."
He is the pillar of the Jade Kingdom's court, and he is loyal to Wang Mei, so how can Brother Yu blame him?"
Lingshuang smiled sweetly and said to Cui Teng: "Xiang Cui hasn't thanked His Highness Feng Wang yet?"
After all, Cui Teng was an old minister, so he knew what was important and what was minor. He sighed secretly in his heart, but bowed deeply to Tang Yin and said, "Old minister, thank you for your kindness!"
Tang Yin waved his hand and said calmly: "You're welcome, Prime Minister Cui."
"Old minister, I have one more thing to ask."
He secretly said trouble. Tang Yin said patiently: "Mr. Cui, please tell me if you have something to say."
Cui Teng asked seriously: "I wonder when the garrison established by His Highness the Wind King in the Jade Kingdom will be evacuated?"
Without even thinking about it, Tang Yin immediately replied: "When the time is right, when the Jade Kingdom is able to protect itself, and when no one from the great powers around the world covets the Jade Kingdom, I will withdraw from the army stationed in Jade."
Having said this, he paused, his bright eyes scanned everyone present one by one, and sighed meaningfully: "I know that many of you are dissatisfied with the Fengjun stationed in Yu, and think that
It is detrimental to the dignity of the Jade Kingdom. However, without the Feng Kingdom's garrison here, the Mo'an Alliance Army, or even the Sichuan-Zhen Alliance Army, and other powerful countries may invade the Jade Kingdom again at any time. If the war starts, all life will be ruined, and it is the Jade Kingdom that will be damaged in the end.
I, one hundred thousand soldiers of the Feng Kingdom, are far away from their homes and relatives, rushing to the Jade Kingdom to protect the territory and people of the Jade Kingdom. I do not ask for your gratitude, but at least I hope that you will not be resentful and think that it is the Feng Kingdom that is here.
Bullying the Jade Kingdom."
The ministers of the Jade Kingdom looked at each other and had nothing to say. Even Cui Teng, who stood up to ask questions, smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn't say anything more and returned to his seat.
The purpose of Feng State's garrison in Jade State is very obvious, which is to control Jade State and bind Jade State tightly to Feng State. However, Tang Yin's words were touching and reasonable. At this time, if
The rebuttal made it seem that the ministers of the Jade Kingdom were too petty.
The atmosphere in the main hall fell into a dull mood again. Lingshuang changed her mind, raised her wine glass, and said with a smile: "As I said, today I am just drinking to cheer up Brother Wang. As for the government affairs between the two countries, we will discuss it later!"
"Yes, yes!" The ministers of the Jade Kingdom also reacted quickly. Following Lingshuang's words, they raised their glasses one after another and said to Tang Yin: "I am waiting for you, Your Highness King Feng!"
Tang Yin also picked up the cup, drank the wine in one gulp with a smile on his face.
In fact, he had a clear mind in his mind. Even though Ling Shuang was busy making peace with him, in fact, every move, word and deed of the ministers of the Jade Kingdom was under her control. Cui Teng's words were also what she wanted.
the words said.
The banquet ended happily with the enthusiastic persuasion of both parties. According to the arrangements of the Jade Kingdom, Tang Yin had to live in the palace, and the accompanying civil servants and military generals had to live in the hotel in Kangyang.
The reason why the Jade Kingdom made such an arrangement was helpless. After all, Tang Yin was the king, and he and Lingshuang were married, so it was not suitable for him to stay in the hotel. In response, Tang Yin took the initiative to refuse and let him live in the palace.
Where do you live in the palace?
Sleeping with Lingshuang? He has no love for Lingshuang, so naturally he can't have any sexual interest. What's more, the palace is other people's territory, and I don't know how many people in the Jade Kingdom's court have feelings for him.
As for resentment, not to mention others, Xu Wenfeng, who was in charge of the palace guards, wanted to cut himself into pieces. The situation living in the palace was definitely much more dangerous than in the hotel. Tang Yin was not afraid of danger, but was afraid of disputes.
At the same time, the relationship between Fengyu and Fengyu broke down.
Lingshuang and Tang Yin had the same idea. She didn't want him to live in the palace, but she couldn't find a reasonable excuse. Now that Tang Yin took the initiative, she let her breathe a sigh of relief.
Just when she was about to agree, Zuo Xiang Gao Yuan slightly shook his head at her, hinting that she couldn't do it. Gao Yuan could see clearly that the people of the Jade Kingdom were very supportive and approved of the marriage between the two monarchs of Feng and Yu. Now King Feng
When you arrive in the Jade Kingdom, thousands of pairs of eyes are watching. If the Wind King is allowed to live in the palace, it will probably arouse dissatisfaction among the people and make other countries laugh at the Jade Kingdom.
Like Cui Teng, Gao Yuan is also a veteran of the court, and his opinions are of great importance to Ling Shuang.
Seeing him shaking his head, Lingshuang swallowed back the words that were on her lips, smiled at Tang Yin and said, "Brother Wang can live in peace in the palace, but Sister Wang has already made arrangements in the Magnolia Palace. Brother Wang, there is no need to refuse anymore."
The halls in the Jade King's Palace all start with the word "Jade", and the Magnolia Palace is located next to the Yuxin Palace in Lingshuang's palace. Lingshuang's repeated insistence made Tang Yin unable to continue to shirk it, so he had to happily agree.
Civil servants and generals from the Feng Kingdom could stay at the hotel, but Tang Yin kept the two bodyguards, A San and A Si, by his side. In addition, the Feng Kingdom maid and female officer Ji Lianyan who served him also stayed with him in the Magnolia Palace.
The courtyard where the Magnolia Hall is located is not big, but not small either. There are rockeries, a semi-artificial lake, and a pavilion for people to enjoy flowers.
It is autumn now, and the sweet-scented osmanthus is in full bloom. There are clusters of orange flowers on the trees, and the air is filled with a strong but not pungent floral fragrance.
Tang Yin felt that the fragrance of flowers was very familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that the jade wine he drank in the hall just now had this kind of smell. He asked Lingshuang, who had accompanied him here, "Did we drink osmanthus wine just now?"
Lingshuang was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "How did Brother Wang know?" She remembered that she didn't seem to have introduced him specifically.
Tang Yin pointed to the sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the courtyard and said, "They all have the same taste."
Lingshuang was happy, and turned to look at Tang Yin, and was surprised to find that his face was unnaturally rosy, and the smile on his face was much more open than usual, or it could be said that it was much more sincere.
Osmanthus wine is delicious, sweet in the mouth, and can only taste a faint taste of wine, but this does not mean that it is not strong. Tang Yin drank several pots of wine in the main hall like drinking water. At that time, he didn't think anything about it. Now that he was outside, he was
As soon as the night wind blew, the drunkenness immediately surged up and he was now tipsy.
Not sure if it was because of the alcohol, Tang Yin smiled and said, "I think the osmanthus from the Jade Kingdom seems to be more beautiful than the osmanthus from the Feng Kingdom!"
Lingshuang chuckled and said, "If Brother Wang likes it, you can transplant the osmanthus from the Jade Kingdom to the Feng Kingdom."
"Beautiful things are always too delicate, and Feng Country is not suitable for delicate existences." Tang Yin smiled lightly, raised his head, and said, "Sister Wang, there is no need to send any more. It's getting late. Go back and rest early!" As he spoke, he
Walking slowly towards the pavilion in the courtyard.
The maids accompanying Feng Guo quickly lit all the candlesticks in the courtyard.
Lingshuang did not leave immediately, but sat in the pavilion with Tang Yin and said, "I will sit with Brother Wang for a while."
"It's already very late." Tang Yin reminded again.
Lingshuang chuckled and asked, "Brother Wang, are you still afraid that I have evil intentions towards you?"
Tang Yin shrugged and said, "I'm not afraid that you have evil intentions, but I'm afraid that your 'adulterer' has evil intentions!" While speaking, he also looked specifically at Xu Wen, who was standing outside the pavilion and looking into the pavilion.
maple.
He 100% believed that if Lingshuang stayed here for one more second, Xu Wenfeng's hatred for him would increase even more. As far as he was concerned, this was an 'unjust injustice'.
Lingshuang also noticed Xu Wenfeng's anxiety, but she had to communicate clearly with Tang Yin in private. If the two could not reach a consensus and had differences of opinion, then the ministers of the two countries would quarrel in the court.
