"Master Tang, this is..." Xiao Qingfeng is the young man of the empire, and Tang Yin is just the head of a vassal state. The official ranks of the two are naturally incomparable, but in fact Tang Yin already has control of the Feng Kingdom, and Hefeng King
There was no difference, Xiao Qingfeng was still very polite to him.
He looked at the box placed in front of him with a puzzled look on his face, not knowing what was inside.
Tang Yin smiled at him, raised his head and said, "Master Xiao, you will know after you open it and take a look." Xiao Qingfeng glanced at Tang Yin again suspiciously, stretched out his hand, and slowly opened the box, only to see a layer of paper inside.
Take it away, there is dense gold sand below. Under the candlelight, the gold sand is so bright that it is dazzling. This box is not small, it is filled with gold sand. How many taels of gold is this?
Xiao Qingfeng can be considered a person who has seen the world, but he was still stunned by the box of gold sand in front of him, and his eyes were dazzled by the dazzling golden light. His head was so muddy that he couldn't react for a long time. The man on the side
The same was true for Xiao Min. She also didn't expect that the meeting gift Tang Yin mentioned would be thousands of taels of gold.
"Mr. Tang, what are you..." After a while, Xiao Qingfeng finally came back to his senses. He hurriedly turned to look at Tang Yin and asked in a trembling voice. His salary was already quite large, but even after a few years or even
Decades of salary and salary added together are not as much as this box of gold sand. To say that you are not tempted and cannot afford greed is definitely a lie.
Tang Yin said with a smile: "Master Xiao, Jiang Lu must have told you a lot about the current situation in Feng Country, right?" "Yes, yes, yes!" Xiao Qingfeng nodded repeatedly and replied: "Brother Jiang, you are right.
Talk about the Feng Kingdom in front of me." Tang Yin asked again with a smile: "The Feng Kingdom currently has no owner, and the previous king's clan was wiped out by the traitors. No one can inherit the orthodoxy. According to Mr. Xiao, Feng Kingdom
Who is suitable to be elected as the new king of the country?" "This..." Xiao Qingfeng is not a fool. Tang Yin is willing to go all the way to Beijing in person, and then gives him such a heavy gift when they meet. His purpose must be to plot against Feng Kingdom.
The throne of the king. He rolled his eyes, suddenly looked up and smiled, and said: "Only the emperor can decide who to choose as the new king of Feng Kingdom. As a minister, don't I feel that my speculation is in vain?" Humph! Tang Yin felt in his heart.
With a sneer, but his face remained calm, he put away the paper on the sand, smoothed it into a thick pile, handed it to Xiao Qingfeng, turned his palm so that it was facing up, and said with a smile: "Master Xiao,
This is a silver note worth two hundred thousand taels, which is valid throughout the country. As long as Mr. Xiao likes it, all this silver and this box of gold are yours." As he spoke, he took Xiao Qingfeng's hand with a smile and held it thickly.
The thick silver note was slapped into his hand.
Xiao Qingfeng lowered his head and glanced. He couldn't see anything else clearly, but he could clearly see the four characters "Imperial Bank Account". The Imperial Bank Account was a bank account established by the official family of the Haotian Empire, and its reputation was much higher than that of private bank accounts.
Two hundred thousand taels of silver! Thousands of taels of gold! Tang Yin's move was extremely generous. He was using money to soften Xiao Qingfeng's bones, making him willing to do things for him.
Looking at the silver notes in his hand, and then at the gold sand in front of him, Xiao Qingfeng couldn't help but gulp. With so much gold and silver, even if he didn't serve as an official in the court in the future, he would be rich for generations no matter where he went.
His heart was so excited that it almost jumped out of his throat, but he pretended to be incredulous on the surface, leaned forward, pushed the banknote in his hand back to Tang Yin, frowned, and said seriously: "Master Tang
What are you doing? Take it back quickly. Besides, Mr. Tang and Xiao Min are old acquaintances. If there is any need for my help, no matter what, as long as I can do it, I will definitely try my best to help you." Tang Yin.
She didn't accept the banknote, but turned around to look at Xiao Min, who looked surprised as if she didn't recognize him, and said, "Last time, Her Royal Highness the Princess visited Feng Country to mediate the war between Feng and Ning. Sir Xiao must know about this, right?"
"Of course I know." "That time, I served as a guard general and escorted Her Royal Highness the Princess into Fengdu. This is how Miss Xiao Min and I met." "Oh! That's it." Xiao Qingfeng suddenly realized,
While nodding his head, he was also very surprised. At that time, he heard that the person in charge of escorting the princess in Feng State was only the commander of the army. In less than two years, Tang Yin suddenly became the person who controlled the military power of Feng State from the commander of the first army.
, this is incredible.
Tang Yin pushed back the banknote Xiao Qingfeng handed him and said quietly: "Master Xiao is a close minister of the Emperor, and he is also an important minister who has won the trust of the Emperor. A word of Master Xiao in front of the Emperor is more useful than a thousand words of others.
Therefore, I hope Sir Xiao can speak kindly to me in front of the Emperor. As for this meeting gift, Sir Xiao must accept it no matter what, otherwise, it will be too disrespectful to me." He said this, making Xiao Qingfeng lose his temper.
There was no room for refutation, not to mention that he had already been tempted and had no intention of pushing back this generous meeting gift. However, he also had concerns about Xiao Min beside him. He knew Xiao Min's personality too well, he was strong and upright.
Ah, even though he is her biological uncle, if he accepts this generous gift from Tang Yin in front of her, Xiao Min might expose himself to Her Royal Highness tomorrow.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have dragged Xiao Min over! Xiao Qingfeng felt regretful and froze there, not knowing what to say.
He didn't speak, so Tang Yin took it as his acquiescence. Then, Tang Yin looked at Xiao Min, smiled slightly, and asked: "How is Miss Xiao Min doing lately?" Originally, Tang Yin's impression in Xiao Min's mind was not bad, but now,
A 180-degree turn. We haven't seen him for two years. Tang Yin's appearance has not changed, but his personality has changed. He has become smooth, worldly, unscrupulous, and even bold enough to bribe the ministers of the DPRK in front of him.
, it is simply lawless to the extreme. Thinking of this, Xiao Min suddenly wanted to laugh again. Tang Yin's courage has not changed. He used to dare to be rude to the princess, but compared with that, now he is nothing.
. She suppressed her smile and replied with a cold face: "Not bad." "Then...how is your highness the princess?" Tang Yin finally got to the point of the question, which was what he was most concerned about.
Seeing Tang Yin staring at him without blinking when asking questions, Xiao Min raised the corner of his mouth and said slowly: "You really miss Her Highness the Princess." Tang Yin and Yin Rou have been together for so many days, Xiao Min can also notice it.
Tang Yin's attitude towards the princess is completely different from that towards others. Even when he looks at the princess, his eyes are much more complicated than others. Although he doesn't understand the specific reason, Xiao Min is sure that Tang Yin's feelings for the princess are extraordinary. It's just a pity...
…
"Of course!" Tang Yin answered simply without even thinking about it.
"I think you don't need to worry about Her Highness the Princess anymore." Xiao Min said pointedly.
"What do you mean, Miss Xiao Min?" Tang Yin clenched his fists subconsciously.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is beyond your reach. What's more, Her Royal Highness is already engaged and will get married soon." After saying this, Xiao Min also sighed secretly.
Snapped!
Without warning, the wine glass in Tang Yin's hand suddenly made a crisp sound, and the glass shattered with the sound. The wine mixed with traces of blood and flowed all over the table.
"Sir??" Upon seeing this, Jiang Lu, Letian and Jiang Fan were all shocked. They all stood up and left their seats, and gathered around. When they saw that Tang Yin's palm was cut open by the fragment of the cup, Letian hurriedly took it.
The sweat towel was taken out to bandage Tang Yin. Tang Yin grabbed the sweat towel expressionlessly, held it tightly in his palm, and then waved his hand, indicating that they all should go back and sit down.
His reaction also shocked Xiao Qingfeng and Xiao Min. Although Xiao Min knew that Tang Yin had unusual feelings for the princess, she did not expect that his reaction would be so strong.
Tang Yin still wanted to keep smiling, but he couldn't smile anymore. Hearing the news that Yin Rou was engaged and about to get married, this was undoubtedly a thunderbolt for him. His whole heart seemed to be hollowed out in an instant, that kind of familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.
The pain, the pain of being betrayed by his lover, hit him again, like millions of ants gnawing at his body at the same time.
How could you treat me like this when you betrayed our original alliance and cost me my life, and now I'm getting married to someone else? At that moment, the figures of Crystal and Yin Rou overlapped in his mind and merged into one.
After turning into a human being, Tang Yin's eyes also emitted frightening green light. At the same time, black mist emitted from his body, surrounding his body.
"Da, da, lord..." Jiang Lu was almost dumbfounded at this time, and stammered and called out in a trembling voice. He didn't know what was going on with Tang Yin. The princess wanted to get married, so what did it have to do with lord?
But soon, the black fog around Tang Yin disappeared, the green light in his eyes quickly dissipated, and reason returned to his brain. Yin Rou was Yin Rou, she was not Crystal, she was just a person who looked exactly like Crystal but had nothing to do with herself.
The delicate princess of relationships. Tang Yin repeatedly reminded himself to calm down and not be impulsive.
Fortunately, his willpower was astonishingly strong and he did not let Yan's memory or soul take over his body.
He lowered his head deeply, paused for a few seconds, and then raised his head again, but the murderous look on his face was no longer at all, and he put on a calm, calm and charming smile. He smiled and asked: "I don't know who the princess is going to marry."
?" Xiao Qingfeng and Xiao Min looked at Tang Yin in a daze. It is hard to imagine that a person can have so many completely different expressions in such a short period of time. First he was in pain, then murderous, and now he has returned to calm, as if
As if nothing happened.
After a long time, Xiao Qingfeng exclaimed, realized what he was doing, and hurriedly said: "It's Li Dan, the crown prince of Zhenguo." "Li Dan?!" Tang Yin had never heard of this name, but he had heard of Zhenguo. As a member of the Nine Great
Zhenguo, one of the vassal states, is naturally not weak in national strength. If Anguo is the southern tyrant of the empire, then Zhenguo is the western tyrant of the empire, basically controlling all the territory in the southwest of the empire. Due to the relatively harsh regional environment, its folk customs
Similar to Feng Guo, he is tough and good at fighting and extremely aggressive.
Yin Rou and Li Dan entered into a marriage contract very early. This marriage was also a typical political marriage. The royal family wanted to use this to stabilize Zhenguo, and Zhenguo could also use this to further enhance its status.
