Volume 10 Chapter 242

Chapter 242

Yuzhen is not far from Shangjing, only about two days' journey. It was once a hunting ground for the royal family. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, with clear water and cool climate. There is also a royal palace in the city. TXT download. Bar)

Because the emperor and the royal family like to visit here, it is named Yuzhen.

Tang Yin and Lingshuang set off from Kangyang and arrived at the border of Yu'an half a month later.

The people who came to greet them from Anguo were the Imperial Censor Zeng Sheng and the Lieutenant General Li De.

Tang Yin was not familiar with Zeng Sheng, but he had heard of Li De. It was this General Li who led 200,000 Anjun to cooperate with the Chuanzhen coalition to attack Fengguo, but when they arrived in the territory of Moguo, they ran into the Pingyuan Army.

After a fierce battle, the An army was defeated by the Pingyuan army, and there were 100,000 prisoners alone. Later, Xiao Muqing was merciful and sent all the 100,000 An army prisoners back to Anguo. This battle also made Anguo afraid of the Feng army. Until now, Anguo was so afraid of the Feng army that when the Feng army invaded Moguo, Anguo could ignore the alliance and decisively reject Shao Fang's request for help and did not confront the Feng army head-on. Li De played a great role in Anguo's fear of the Feng army.

Li De was defeated so badly by the Feng army, but he did not hate the Feng army. First, the Feng army was famous for its bravery and good fighting skills, especially the Pingyuan army, which was the most elite among the Feng army. It was not shameful to be defeated by the Pingyuan army. Secondly, the brutal Feng army did not kill the Anguo prisoners indiscriminately, but returned them all unconditionally, which made him grateful.

This time, it was Li De who took the initiative to come to the border to welcome Tang Yin and Ling Shuang. In fact, the person he was mainly meeting was Tang Yin.

After the two sides met, Li De was much more enthusiastic than Zeng Sheng. He bowed and saluted to Tang Yin, showing his humility, and said repeatedly: "I have admired His Highness Feng Wang for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you today, a great honor!"

Zeng Sheng rolled his eyes beside him. The king only asked you to welcome Feng Wang and Yu Wang, not to flatter them. It was really a disgrace to An Guo.

He was dissatisfied in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He said to Tang Yin and Ling Shuang in a dignified manner: "Your Highness Feng Wang, Your Highness Yu Wang, my king specially sent us to wait here to welcome the two highnesses. The two highnesses have worked hard all the way."

Tang Yin and Ling Shuang smiled slightly, and the latter asked: "Excuse me, which prince has arrived in Yu Town now?" Ling Shuang is definitely the youngest among the kings.

Zeng Sheng replied: "At present, my king and the king of Chuan have arrived in Yuzhen. In three days, His Royal Highness King Huan will arrive, and in five days, His Royal Highness King Mo will also arrive."

"How many days will it take to get to Yuzhen from here?" Ling Shuang asked again.

"If we hurry up, we can arrive in five or six days."

Ling Shuang nodded and smiled at Tang Yin: "It seems that my brother and I may be the last to arrive."

Li De hurriedly said: "Your Highnesses, don't worry. The kings will definitely wait for you to arrive before starting to discuss matters."

Unable to get used to Li De's flattering attitude, Zeng Sheng said seriously: "Your Highnesses, time is running out, let's hurry up!"

Tang Yin nodded and said with a smile: "The guest follows the host's wishes! Since we have arrived in Anguo, I will trouble you all."

"Oh, Your Highness King Feng is too polite." Without waiting for Zeng Sheng to reply, Li De bowed repeatedly.

Zeng Sheng and Li De brought 30,000 soldiers as escorts, plus Tang Yin and Ling Shuang's entourage, adding up to almost 50,000 people. With so many people rushing together, it was impossible to travel fast.

It was originally a five or six-day journey, but they took almost eight days to reach Yuzhen. When Tang Yin and Ling Shuang arrived, Chuan Wang Xiao Xuan, An Wang Yue Ze, Mo Wang Shao Fang, and Huan Wang Li Xin had been waiting for many days.

For these famous princes, except Shao Fang, Tang Yin had never seen them before.

Xiao Xuan looked to be in his early forties, with a rosy face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a straight nose and a square mouth. He was handsome and gentle. If he changed into ordinary clothes, he would look more like a scholar who was well-read in poetry and books standing in the crowd.

Yue Ze was a middle-aged fat man, giving people the feeling of being round, with a round head, a round body, and even round eyes and mouth. He was smiling happily, not much different from Maitreya Buddha.

Li Xin is younger, about thirty years old, tall and handsome, with slanting eyebrows, bright eyes, sharp edges and corners on his face, and a masculine aura.

Generally speaking, the kings of various countries are not ugly, either gentle and elegant or handsome, even the fat Yue Ze does not make people feel disgusted after seeing him.

In fact, it is easy to understand. The wives of the princes are all beautiful women picked from thousands of miles away. Even if the first generation of princes are ugly, their genes have been optimized after being passed down from generation to generation.

The meeting of the kings can be said to be very lively. No matter how deep the hatred and resentment are in private, they still have to greet each other warmly, talk and laugh, and flatter each other on the surface, wishing to praise each other to the sky in one breath.

The princes value face the most, especially when the kings gather together, no one wants to show their narrow-minded side in public and be ridiculed and despised. Of course, this is also the nature of the nobles who think they are noble.

Tang Yin was looking at Xiao Xuan, Yue Ze, and Li Xin, and similarly, the three of them were also looking at Tang Yin. Seeing Tang Yin's appearance, the three of them were also a little surprised.

Originally, they thought that as a ferocious, warlike and militaristic monarch of the Feng Kingdom, even if he did not look so ferocious, he would still be similar to the uncivilized barbarians of the Fan state. However, it was quite the opposite. Although Tang Yin was tall, he was also slender and well-proportioned in appearance. He is even more handsome and extraordinarily handsome. He is also gifted with a smiling face. Even if he has a straight face, he still looks like he is smiling. His beautiful tiger eyes are shining brightly. From time to time, he shoots out sharp lightning that stings the soul. He is so generous with every move of his hands and feet. Decent, but without losing a natural arrogance.

This was Tang Yin who defeated the million-strong Sichuan and Zhen coalition forces. I never expected that one day he and I would stand together and talk and laugh. Xiao Xuan sighed inwardly, cupped his hands towards Tang Yin and said, "Brother Tang Xian is very handsome, and I have admired him for a long time."

Tang Yin had already informed each other of their names before, and Tang Yin knew in his heart that this gentle and easy-going scholar was his biggest rival, Prince Xiao Xuan of Sichuan.

He cupped his hands and replied: "Brother Xiao Wang is too polite. The Sichuan Kingdom is unique in the world and is arrogant among all the heroes. It is true that the king brother is ashamed of himself."

As he said this, Tang Yin sneered in his heart. When he praised you, he was just praising himself. No matter how strong the Sichuan country was, wasn't he defeated by his own men in the first place?

Of course Xiao Xuan didn't know what he was thinking. Hearing this, he smiled and said politely.

An Wang Yueze was shouting at the side, and said to Xini: "Both of you are heroes among the princes, there is no need to be modest, haha——"

At this time, Shao Fang was not willing to be left behind. He walked over, deliberately looked Tang Yin up and down, and said, "I heard that my dear brother has been feeling unwell since he returned to Feng Country from Mo Country. I am still very worried about him. Today I see that my good brother is still in good spirits, I feel relieved."

On the surface, his words sounded like a caring greeting, but in fact they were an insinuation that Tang Yin was seriously injured by Lian Ge. Tang Yin could of course hear something in his words. He smiled slightly and said, "It's true that I'm feeling unwell. It's mainly because of the busy state affairs. The affairs of Feng State have kept me busy, and now I have the affairs of Bei Mo." It’s even more difficult to take care of it! Brother Shao Wang is now free. Without the affairs of the five counties, it should be much easier than before!”

After hearing this, the smile on Shao Fang's face immediately froze, and his old face also darkened. The other kings looked at each other and frowned.

Everyone present knew about the Feng Mo battle. The final result was that Feng Guo took advantage. Now that Tang Yin is pouring salt on Shao Fang's wounds, isn't he deliberately provoking trouble?

Xiao Xuan was too lazy to interrupt in such irrelevant matters. He put his hands behind his back, with an unchanging smile on his face, and glanced sideways at An Wang Yueze.

The latter immediately understood and waved his hands to Tang Yin and Shao Fang with a dry smile and said: "Today is the first day for our father-in-law to meet. We will not talk about state affairs, but just talk about romance, haha!"

After a pause, he called to everyone again: "Masters, don't stand here anymore, please come inside! This used to be the emperor's palace. Although it is in Anguo, I don't dare to enter rashly. Today, it can be regarded as an occupation. After seeing the light of Lord Lie, I can finally enter the palace and have a look."

King Huan Li Xin said with a smile: "Brother King Yue said so, but in fact I don't know how many times I have gone in, and I don't know how many times I have rolled on the emperor's bed, right?"

As soon as these words came out, all the kings laughed.

Yue Ze waved his hands repeatedly and said: "You can't talk nonsense, this is a serious crime of losing your head!"

"Come on!" Li Xin shrugged and said, "Brother King Yue's neck is very hard. Whoever dares to chop off your head will not be trampled into a pulp by Anguo's million-strong army!"

"Haha——" Yue Ze grinned, and his round head looked even rounder.

These princes are all self-respecting, and no one is really afraid of the emperor. When chatting with each other, they can even bring out the emperor to joke and amuse them.

Entering the palace, Xiao Xuan and Yue Ze walked in front, while Tang Yin, Shao Fang and others walked behind. They were talking and laughing with each other. The atmosphere was so harmonious that no grudges could be felt at all.

During the conversation, Xiao Xuan often turned the conversation to Tang Yin, and Tang Yin naturally became the focus. However, Ling Shuang, who came with him, was ignored and indifferent. This is the reason why a weak country has no diplomacy.

Regardless of whether Tang Yin is an enemy in the hearts of the kings, the strength of the Feng Kingdom's military is obvious to all. With the strong military backing, Tang Yin can straighten his back even in front of Xiao Xuan and is full of confidence. Relatively speaking, as a In the Jade Kingdom, which is the weakest among the nations, Lingshuang seems to be insignificant in front of the kings. In addition, she is too young and a woman, so she is incompatible with the kings.
