After listening to Qiu Zhen's words, Tang Yin sneered and said: "It's ridiculous that Sun Yuanhong, the first chief of the district, has left the huge Mo country helpless." After a pause, he asked again: "What if Shao Fang really did it for this matter?"
Come on, do I agree or not?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu She stepped out of the queue and said loudly: "Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot allow this?"
"Oh?" Lu She, who has always been poor at speaking out, must have a good reason to stand up and object. Tang Yin asked: "Lu She, what do you say?"
Lu She said sternly: "Looking around our country, there are only two countries that can be called our strong rivals. One is Besa, and the other is Mo. The king has married Princess Besa, and the alliance between Besa and me, Dafeng, is
The relationship is already very stable, but that is not the case with Mo Country. With the presence of Changsun Yuanhong, Mo Country can be restrained to the greatest extent. Instead of helping Mo Country, the king should find opportunities to secretly help Changsun Yuanhong."
"Lord Lu's words are wrong." Among the ministers, Zhang Han, a bachelor, stood up and objected, saying: "The princess of Besa married to Feng Country and married me, Dafeng, while the princess of Mo Country had already been sent to Feng Country.
, as long as the king is willing to nod, our two countries, Feng and Mo, can marry at any time. The king and the king of Mo have a close personal relationship. Not only did they send troops to destroy the Ning country together, but when the four countries united to fight against the wind, the Mo country also stood on our side, and even
In the end, they openly sent troops and completely broke up with the Sichuan and Zhen Kingdoms. Aren't these enough to prove that Mo Country is our most reliable ally in Dafeng? I think Bessa is a greater threat than Mo Country. After all,
Non-my family, its heart must be different!"
Lu She shook his head repeatedly and said: "Although Besa is not of my race, Besa people have a straightforward temperament. Once they recognize that the other person is a friend, they will not become hostile again. But Mo Guo is not like that. He is cunning and capricious. Even if I
The marriage between the two countries will not guarantee that Mo will never be my enemy, Dafeng!"
Zhang Han disagreed and said with a smile: "Master Lu is really alarmist and wants to destroy the Feng Mo Alliance with ulterior motives!"
"The lower officials have no qualms about Da Feng or the King. On the contrary, some people are short-sighted and will cause trouble in the future!"
"you……"
Zhang Han and Lu She said something to each other, and the discussion gradually turned into a personal attack. Tang Yin was so upset by the quarrel between them that he waved his hands and said, "Okay, stop arguing!"
After listening to Tang Yin's words, Zhang Han gave Lu She a hard look and returned to the train. Lu She also lowered his head and stopped talking.
What they were arguing about was not an insignificant issue, but related to the future national policy of Feng State. Tang Yin looked at Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen and asked, "Two prime ministers, what do you two mean?"
Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen looked at each other, but neither answered immediately. Whether Besa is reliable or Mo Guo is reliable, no one dares to make a guarantee now. Lu She's words make sense, but Zhang Han's words are also correct.
How to correctly handle the relationship between Fengguo and these two countries also requires a lot of thought.
After a long silence, Shangguan Yuanji slowly said: "Bessa and Mo are both our allies in Dafeng. Of course, they may also be potential enemies of our country. Now our country is in the stage of recovering its national strength. Regarding the relationship between the two countries,
We must be careful and treat it with caution. Master Lu said not to help Mo Guo, and I agree, but in turn, I think it is inappropriate to help Sun Yuanhong. Once the matter is exposed, wouldn't it put me in a cruel and unjust way?
It will add another powerful enemy to Fengguo, and the risk is too high. Compared with it, the benefits will be very small, so it must not be done."
Qiu Zhen nodded, cupped his hands and said, "What Yuan Ji said is absolutely true!"
"Well!" Tang Yin stood up while thinking about it, and said quietly: "Yes, how can there be eternal friends between countries? When the interests of the country are at the forefront, anything can happen."
There are no permanent friends, only eternal interests. Tang Yin couldn't understand this more clearly.
After the dynasty dispersed, a maid from the palace came to the palace with a message from Princess Yin Rou, inviting Tang Yin to enter the palace.
It was rare that Yin Rou took the initiative to invite her, so Tang Yin went happily.
In Yin Rou's palace, Tang Yin saw Yin Rou sitting in the pavilion enjoying the cool air.
Yin Rou was wearing her favorite white dress. As usual, the dress was spotlessly clean. She was in the pavilion, with the breeze blowing and the skirt flying. She looked like a fairy in a painting, which even gave Tang Yin the illusion that if he didn't hold her tight, she would
It may fly away at any time.
Tang Yin stepped forward, grabbed Yin Rou's catkins from behind, put his other hand on her waist, and asked with a smile: "What are you doing?"
Yin Rou was startled at first and instinctively retracted her hands, but when she heard Tang Yin's voice, she immediately relaxed. She turned back and said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you make any sound when you walk?"
Tang Yin shrugged innocently and said, "You are too lost in your thoughts."
Yin Rou smiled sweetly, pulled Tang Yin to sit down, pushed a plate of snacks on the stone table in front of Tang Yin, and said, "Try it and feel how it tastes?"
Tang Yin picked up a piece of snack, looked at it, sniffed it, and asked, "What is this?"
"Osmanthus cake."
Before she finished speaking, Tang Yin had already thrown the snack into his mouth. He was never picky about what he ate, and he was even less interested in snacks.
He nodded and said, "It tastes pretty good."
Yin Rou looked happy and said, "I did it."
"Oh?" Tang Yin's eyes widened and he looked at her from head to toe as if he didn't recognize her. He really didn't expect that Yin Rou, who was pampered in the palace, could actually make snacks. Seeing his surprised look, Yin Rou
He chuckled and asked, "What? Does the sweet-scented osmanthus cake I made surprise you that much?"
"Yeah!" Tang Yin nodded honestly, and then he grabbed another piece and put it into his mouth. This time he tasted it carefully, unlike just a few gulps. Yin Rou's craftsmanship was not good at all.
, can't be said to be bad, just average, but when it tastes in Tang Yin's mouth, it's completely different. It feels like nothing in the world can be more delicious than this little sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
"It's delicious!" Tang Yin praised it profusely while eating, making Yin Rou smile sweetly.
Seeing the cake residue hanging from the corner of his mouth, Yin Rou took out her handkerchief and wiped it off carefully. Just such a move made Tang Yin feel that the cake in his mouth was even sweeter, and the smile on his face became stronger, as if he had eaten candy.
child.
The Shangguan brothers, who were accustomed to Tang Yin's iron-blooded and cold side, couldn't stand it anymore. They turned around in unison and stood with their backs to the pavilion.
Not long after, Tang Yin devoured the entire plate of pastries on the stone table. Looking at the empty plate, he wiped his mouth with unfulfilled interest and sighed: "I really want to take you home and let you cook for me every day.
."
Yin Rouyu's face turned red and she asked shyly: "Is it really that delicious?"
"certainly!"
"But I gave it to the emperor brother. He only ate one piece and then stopped eating."
Tang Yin's face was stern and he said slowly: "From now on, you just have to be the only one for me."
While he was talking, a maid presented him with sweet-scented osmanthus sake. This was a wine specially supplied to the palace. Compared with the Japanese style wine, it was almost the same as water, and was usually drunk by the female family members.
Yin Rou took the initiative to pour wine for Tang Yin and drank with him. The two chatted while drinking, and laughter and laughter could be heard from time to time in the pavilion.
Tang Yin enjoyed his time with Yin Rou very much. There was no pressure, his body and mind were completely relaxed, and what he felt was nothing but happiness.
Perhaps because of drinking, Yin Rou's cheeks were flushed, her beautiful eyes were blurred, and her noble and holy look was full of charming charm. If it weren't for Tang Yin's extraordinary determination, I don't know what she would have done at this time.
Yin Rou, who was slightly tipsy, leaned gently on Tang Yin's shoulder and whispered: "I heard that the Feng Army sent back good news in Tia."
The news spread so fast! Everyone in the palace knew about it. Tang Yin raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, and said: "Yes, the Sanshui Army fought brilliantly, defeating the main force of Du Ji's army, and also defeated Ti.
The siege of Ya City, now our army has taken the initiative in Tia, and the people of Tia regard us Feng people as their saviors!"
"But if you do this, you will offend the Duji people." Yin Rou frowned and whispered.
"It's just Du Ji, a small country on the border. It's nothing to worry about." Tang Yinman said nonchalantly. Then he noticed that Yin Rou's expression was unnatural, and he asked: "Are you worried?"
"Yeah." Yin Rou said worriedly, "I'm wondering if Feng Country will go to war directly with Du Ji Country next."
If Besa does not send troops, Fengguo and Duji will definitely have a national war. Tang Yin did not hide it, saying: "It is very possible."
"Why... do we always have to fight?" Yin Rou raised her head, looked up at Tang Yin eagerly, and asked, "Can't we just stop fighting? Yin... why are you always so warlike?"
This was the first time that Yin Rou showed dissatisfaction with Tang Yin's bellicose personality. Tang Yin gently pushed Yin Rou away, stood up, and said seriously: "It's not that I'm bellicose, it's that I can't help myself!"
"You are the king. If you are unwilling to send troops, no one can do it to you."
"No! Shiji people!" Tang Yin put his hands on Yin Rou's shoulders and said softly: "I want to help you conquer a vast territory and re-establish an indestructible empire. I will not let you leave your hometown again, let alone
Let you be bullied again."
But that's not what I want. I just want to live peacefully with you! Before Yin Rou could say what was in her heart, Shangguan Yuanwu quickly walked into the pavilion, came to Tang Yin's side, and whispered: "
Your Majesty, General Lei Zhen is asking for an audience outside the courtyard!"
Oh? How did Lei Zhen find the palace? Tang Yin frowned, raised his head and said, "Let him in."
"yes!"
Not long after, Lei Zhen hurried over from the outside and entered the pavilion. He did not dare to squint, lowered his head, knelt down on one knee, stepped in and saluted, and said: "I will see you at last, Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess!"
Tang Yin waved his hand and said, "Get up! What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, a ranger came to the palace to cause trouble and injured several guards." Lei Zhen said cautiously.
