"I heard that Brother Wang tacitly approved of King Zhen's proclaiming himself emperor." Lingshuang looked directly at Tang Yin and asked.
"Who did Wang sister hear this from?" Tang Yin picked up the tea brought by the palace maid and asked with a smile.
Lingshuang said: "Brother Wang, please don't forget that there are many people from Jade Kingdom who are sent to Feng Kingdom to study. They are not blind or deaf. Of course, you can hear a lot of rumors in Yancheng."
Tang Yin nodded, noncommittal, and leisurely blew the tea leaves floating on the tea.
Seeing this, Lingshuang thought she had been right. Tang Yin really didn't want to care about Li Hong's proclaiming himself emperor. She secretly frowned and asked, "Brother Wang, why do you think the Jade Kingdom wants to form an alliance with the Feng Kingdom?"
Tang Yin replied matter-of-factly: "Of course it's because Feng Country is strong."
"Then please tell me, Brother Wang, why is the Feng Kingdom so powerful?"
"Our Feng army is brave and good at fighting, and it is rare to meet an opponent..."
Before he finished speaking, Lingshuang interrupted: "That can only be regarded as a secondary factor in the strength of Feng Country. The reason why Feng Country can become the overlord of the north in a short period of time is because the Emperor is in Feng Country. With the Emperor here,
All foreign conquests of the Feng Kingdom have become justifiable and can be carried out under the banner of justice. As long as the emperor is here, the Feng Kingdom will be popular and can attract heroes from all over the world. However, once the emperor is no longer in the Feng Kingdom, then the north of the Feng Kingdom will
Can the hegemony last long? Is the Feng Kingdom, isolated by other countries, still able to survive?"
These words hit the nail on the head and hit the nail on the head.
Tang Yin's hand holding the tea cup was also shocked. Holding the emperor to command the princes was really comfortable for the Feng Kingdom and it also tasted the sweetness. The emperor was the trump card of the Feng Kingdom, and Li Hong's proclaiming himself emperor was a great deal for the Feng Kingdom.
It has the most direct and powerful relationship.
"The Zhen Kingdom is strong and supported by other countries. Even if I am dissatisfied with Li Hong's proclaimed emperor, what can I do?" Tang Yin said helplessly.
Lingshuang smiled, shook her head and said, "This should not be what Brother Wang is thinking. The Tang Yin I know would not say such weak words."
Tang Yin squinted his eyes and met her scrutinizing gaze. The two looked at each other for a long time, and he smiled leisurely and said, "Then Sister Wang, tell me, what is the Tang Yin you know thinking about now?"
Lingshuang rolled her eyes and said calmly: "You will never sit back and watch the emperor be deposed. You are waiting. As for what Brother Wang is waiting for, Sister Wang has no idea."
Since she opened the sky and spoke openly, Tang Yin no longer concealed anything. He asked directly: "If I am dissatisfied with Li Hong's proclaimed emperor and openly break with the Zhen Kingdom, will Wang Mei's Jade Kingdom side with the Feng Kingdom?"
Can this be decided by the Jade Kingdom itself? Lingshuang smiled bitterly in her heart. Now, even if she publicly announced that she had severed ties with the Feng Kingdom and wanted to defect to the Sichuan Zhen and other countries, people would not believe her and would have to treat her as a spy.
From the moment the monarchs of Fengyu and Fengyu got married, the fate of the two countries was destined to be bound together. Either they would live together or die together. There was no other way.
Lingshuang smiled slightly, leaned forward, approached Tang Yin, her eyes flashed with agility, and said softly: "Sister Wang has told Brother Wang a long time ago that Sister Wang will follow Brother Wang's lead, as long as Brother Wang makes his decision
, Sister Wang will definitely support it, no matter if the Feng Kingdom goes up the mountain of swords or down into the sea of fire, the Jade Kingdom will definitely follow."
These words moved Tang Yin's heart, and he subconsciously leaned forward. The distance between the two was so close that they were almost touching. Even in the weak candlelight, he could clearly see the details on the other's face.
Fine villi.
He asked word for word: "Does Sister Wang mean what she said?"
Lingshuang said sternly: "If Brother Wang doesn't believe it, then you can put yourself in the shoes of the Jade Kingdom and think about whether the Jade Kingdom has other options besides the alliance with the Feng Kingdom."
Tang Yin stared at Lingshuang, and Lingshuang did not shy away from his gaze and looked at him calmly. They both trusted and doubted each other, wanted to rely on but were worried about each other.
Trust is something that doesn't magically appear overnight, but develops naturally after a long period of time together.
The two of them have their own concerns, but on the surface, they look more like a couple, looking at each other lovingly.
Xu Wenfeng outside the pavilion couldn't hear what the two of them were talking about, but their postures at this moment made him feel sad.
The sourness mixed with anger rushed to the top of his head. Unable to bear it any longer, he coughed heavily, walked to the pavilion, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, it's time to go back and rest."
His words interrupted the look between Tang Yin and Ling Shuang. The former came back to his senses, smiled leisurely, and slowly drank tea without even looking at Xu Wenfeng.
Lingshuang's jade face was slightly red, and she secretly complained that Xu Wenfeng didn't know the etiquette and shouldn't have interrupted at the critical moment, but she couldn't blame him directly.
She turned her head, twitched her lips at Xu Wenfeng, and whispered: "I know, but King Feng and I haven't finished talking yet. If General Xu feels bored, he can go to other places for inspection first."
Hearing Lingshuang's obvious impatience and dismissal, Xu Wenfeng became increasingly unhappy. He looked at Tang Yin, then looked deeply at Lingshuang, without saying anything, he turned around and walked away.
Alas! Looking at his angry figure as he walked away, Lingshuang sighed in her heart.
"Don't sigh, it's human nature." Tang Yin said with a smile.
A flash of surprise flashed in Lingshuang's eyes. Did she sigh? Tang Yin actually saw it.
Tang Yin continued with a smile: "If it were my woman sitting up with other men, talking and laughing, but turning a blind eye to herself, I think my reaction would only be more intense than his."
"General Xu and I..." Although their marriage was just a forced political farce, Lingshuang still instinctively wanted to explain after hearing his words.
Waving his hand, Tang Yin planned her words and said: "I am not a person who is keen on beating mandarin ducks. If you and the 'adulterer' are really in love, I will give him the position of husband in the future."
Lingshuang opened her eyes in disbelief. What he said was so shocking. Lingshuang thought that her personal happiness in this life was completely ruined, but she didn't expect that Tang Yin would have the idea to fulfill her.
This was exactly what she wanted, and it was exactly the result she wanted to pursue. But strangely, when Tang Yin said this, she didn't feel too excited in her heart. Instead, she felt a strange emotion coming out, which made her feel bad.
strange.
She didn't want to think carefully about her current mood, so she pretended to be calm and asked casually: "When?"
Wait until the Feng Kingdom can completely control the Jade Kingdom! Tang Yin thought so in his heart, but he would not say it with his mouth. He said: "Now Feng and Yu have just formed an alliance. The marriage between you and me is conducive to the stability of the relationship between the two countries. For the time being, it is still possible."
It's not suitable for reconciliation. If you want to make a positive relationship with the adulterer, I'm afraid you have to wait for a while. But there is something I must say up front. Before you and I reconcile, you and the adulterer are flirting with each other.
Yes, but don't do anything complacent, Fengyu and Fengyu cannot afford to lose such face."
"Hmph!" Lingshuang was in a bad mood and snorted heavily, which was an answer to Tang Yin's warning. In fact, even Lingshuang herself couldn't figure out what she was angry about.
After clearing up her bad mood, she changed the subject and returned to the topic, saying: "Brother Wang has not yet given me a clear answer as to whether he acquiesces or opposes King Zhen's proclaiming himself emperor."
Tang Yin replied straight to the point: "Li Hong has proclaimed himself emperor, and he and I are no longer at odds with each other!"
Lingshuang's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she said in confusion: "But Feng Guo has not expressed any attitude towards this matter. I heard that at the imperial court, Brother Wang also had a quarrel with the emperor and the ministers of the imperial court.
Gone happily."
Does Lingshuang even know about such things?! It seems that his guess is not wrong. There are indeed many ministers in the imperial court who are secretly keeping in touch with other countries. Tang Yin said calmly: "Actually, Sister Wang's guess is right. I am indeed
It’s waiting.”
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for the breakup between Zhenguo and other countries." Tang Yin sneered and said: "In terms of national strength, Chuanguo is far superior to Zhenguo. In terms of ability, the kings of all the countries are not weaker than Li Hong, but no one dares to do it.
Li Hong did what he wanted, how could the other countries be convinced? If my guess is correct, the breakup between Sichuan and Zhen is just around the corner, so I am waiting to see how things will develop in the end."
"That's it!" Lingshuang nodded thoughtfully. This statement was somewhat in line with Tang Yin's cunning and cunning side.
"You don't need to explain these words to the ministers of the Jade Kingdom." Tang Yin said quietly: "Now is the last moment before the truth comes out. Whoever makes a move first may break the silence and be the first to fall into passivity, giving people an opportunity
Can be multiplied."
"Brother Wang reminded me, I understand." Lingshuang agreed with Tang Yin's statement and believed that it was wise not to make a clear reaction now. However, there was one thing that was difficult for her to understand. Sichuan and Zhen had always been in collusion.
And break up?
Seeing the confusion on her face, Tang Yin guessed what she was thinking. He was about to say, "No need to be surprised, the person closest to you is probably the person who wants to kill you the most", but then he thought about it.
, and felt it was inappropriate, because these words could also be applied to Fengyu and Fengyu.
He swallowed back the words that were on his lips, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "My feelings have been truthfully told to Sister Wang. It's time for Sister Wang to go back. If I don't leave, the 'adulterer' will come to me and fight for his life."
.”
Tang Yin never called Xu Wenfeng's name in front of Lingshuang. He opened his mouth to be an adulterer and closed his mouth to be an adulterer, which made Lingshuang feel embarrassed and awkward.
She muttered in her heart that a dog's mouth couldn't spit out ivory, and then she stood up, straightened her clothes, raised her head and said, "Okay, no need to push me anymore, Brother Wang, please take some rest!"
"Sister Wang, walk slowly!" Tang Yin sat on the stone bench and waved to her with a smile.
Lingshuang was doubtful about what Tang Yin said about the breakup of the Sichuan Zhenhui, but something happened next that confirmed Tang Yin's words. Xiao Xuan, the king of Sichuan, sent a letter to the kings of all countries, inviting them to gather at the imperial town of Anguo.
