Chapter 764

"Your Majesty, Xiao Wu's origin is not as simple as your Majesty said! Read the full text! Ten thousand years of warm jade is extremely valuable. If an ordinary wealthy family gets such a treasure, they have to enshrine it as a family heirloom. How can they do it casually? Take it with you?"

Yin Lan said sternly: "In the morning, my subordinate took this jade pendant to the largest pawnshop in Yujing. The owner of the pawnshop met my subordinate in person and offered him one hundred thousand taels of silver, and he could further negotiate. Read the full text. (_-< >-) The subordinate asked the shopkeeper about the origin of this jade pendant. According to the shopkeeper, this jade pendant probably came from the royal family of Sichuan Kingdom.”

Tang Yin's hand holding the jade pendant was obviously shaken, and he asked suspiciously: "The royal family of Sichuan Kingdom? You mean, Xiao Wu is..."

Yin Lan said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the surname of the king of Sichuan is Xiao. I have checked and found out that the king of Sichuan has a total of sixteen children. The fifth one is the favorite princess of the king of Sichuan - Hongxiu. Princess, Princess Hongxiu’s real name is Xiao Xiang. If my subordinates’ inference is correct, this Xiao Wu is probably Princess Hongxiu herself—Xiao Xiang!”

Xiao Wu is Xiao Xiang? The confusion on Tang Yin's face became more serious, and he said: "Since she is a princess, she must be a woman, Xiao Wu is a man!"

Yin Lan said: "Your Majesty, my subordinates have already said that Xiao Wu is not a man, but a woman in disguise!"

"you sure?"

"Yes! Last night, I was entangled with her on the bed for so long. Could it be that I couldn't tell whether she was a boy or a girl?" Yin Lan leaned forward and said urgently: "Your Majesty, please give the order quickly. Send troops to surround the inn and capture Xiao Xiang!"

Tang Yin shook his head and smiled, and said: "Even if she is a woman, even if the jade pendant on her body does come from the Sichuan royal family, it does not mean that she is the princess of Sichuan, that is, Xiao Xiang!"

Yin Lan said: "But it is impossible for ordinary people to have so many spiritual martial arts masters as guards around them!"

This sentence is to the point. There are indeed too many spiritual martial arts masters around Xiao Wu. Those four people, if you pick any one at random, are top-notch, especially the masked man in black, whose cultivation level is at least In the Lingkong realm and above, I am afraid that no one except the royal family can afford to hire a spiritual cultivator of this level, and no one has the qualifications and prestige to hire one.

Tang Yin nodded slowly and said, "You are right. Based on this analysis, it is very likely that Xiao Wu is Xiao Xiang."

Seeing that the king began to agree with her point of view, Yin Lan looked very excited and said anxiously: "Then the king should quickly order the arrest!"

Tang Yin smiled and said, "Even if Xiao Wu is Xiao Xiang, I can't send troops to capture him!"

Yin Lan was stunned and quickly asked: "Your Majesty, why is this?"

Tang Yin shrugged and said, "As early as the war against Huan, our country had already negotiated peace with Sichuan. This time we used troops against An, but Sichuan has never intervened. What reason do I have to capture the princess of Sichuan?"

"But...but the majestic Princess of Sichuan will never take such a big risk and secretly sneak into Yujing for no reason. She must have ulterior motives and other agendas. Maybe she came to Kawaguchi County to represent The Sichuan Kingdom has come to support the remnants of the An army here. Your Majesty, you must not ignore it!" Yin Lan's face flushed with anxiety and she rubbed her hands repeatedly. {/Update uploaded by book friends}

yes! Tang Yin felt like he had a mirror in his heart, and Yin Lan's analysis was very reasonable. However, if he used force to capture Xiao Xiang, he would undoubtedly declare war on the Sichuan Kingdom. Is the Feng Kingdom already ready for this? Of course the promise is negative. Even An Di has not been stabilized. How can Feng Guo talk about war with Sichuan? Although he didn't want to show weakness, the fact was that there was nothing Tang Yin could do. He spread his hands and said with a helpless smile: "You said she had ulterior motives and other agendas. Do you have any evidence?"

"This... my subordinates haven't discovered it yet..." Yin Lan slowly lowered his head.

"There is no evidence, and the Princess of Sichuan is captured without any reason. Will it also attract the Sichuan army?"

Tang Yin sighed and said: "Our country is currently unstable internally and Anjia has not been consolidated. Once we go to war with the Sichuan Kingdom, there is little certainty of victory. Have you considered these?"

"This..." Yin Lan just wanted to catch Xiao Wu so that she could get rid of the bad temper of being humiliated at her hands. As for whether this would trigger a national war between Fengchuan and Fengchuan, she really didn't think about it. So much. When Tang Yin asked this question, she was speechless.

Seeing her hanging her head in silence, Tang Yin smiled slightly, stood up, walked around the table, walked out and shook his head and said, "Let's go!"

Yin Lan came back to her senses, hurriedly followed Tang Yin, and asked, "Where is your Majesty going?"

"It's fine if we don't know Xiao Wu's identity. Now that we know she may be the princess of Sichuan, we have to visit her and confirm it!" Tang Yin said with a smile.

Yin Lan grinned secretly, and asked with a look of embarrassment: "Your Majesty, my subordinates... it's better not to go..." If she saw Xiao Wu again, she wasn't sure if she would be able to control her temper.

Tang Yin understood her thoughts, smiled calmly, and said, "If you don't want to go, just stay. This will save you the embarrassment when we meet!"

Yin Lan bit her lip, finally calmed down, and said unwillingly, "There is nothing to be embarrassed about. I will go with the king!"

Tang Yin glanced at her appreciatively, walked out of the study without saying anything.

When Tang Yin arrived at the inn, he was surprised to find that Xiao Wu and others were not in the inn at all. The rooms where they stayed had been cleaned up without leaving any traces.

Around the inn, Shadow had deployed spies. If Xiao Wu and his team had left the inn, Tang Yin should have received the news immediately, but Shadow did not move.

At Tang Yin's signal, Yin Lan immediately walked out of the inn and found the nearby Shadow spies to ask them when Xiao Wu and his team left and why they did not report it.

The Shadow spies were all confused. They did not see Xiao Wu and his team leave the inn at all. As for why they were not in the inn, they could not explain clearly.

Yin Lan asked for a long time but could not get any information. Finally, she could only return to the inn helplessly. After seeing Tang Yin, she told him the truth.

Tang Yin almost laughed on the spot. Five living people disappeared under Shadow's nose, and Shadow was unaware of it. This was simply a humiliation to himself.

He tilted his head and said, "Check! Search all the rooms they stayed in carefully to see if there are any clues left."

"Yes!" The accompanying secret arrow personnel and guards responded in unison, and then conducted a detailed search of several rooms.

The people were no longer here, and there was no need for Tang Yin to stay any longer. He was about to leave the inn. At this time, a secret arrow personnel ran up quickly and said in a hurry: "My king, there is a letter under the quilt of the bed."

"Oh?" Tang Yin stopped and took the envelope. There were four big characters on it: Brother Tang wrote it personally.

This is a letter to himself. Judging from the address, it should be written by Xiao Wu. Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and was about to open the envelope. Yin Lan on the side hurriedly stopped him and said, "My king, be careful of fraud!"

Tang Yin was happy and asked back, "Could she poison the letter?" "My king must be on guard!" "It's okay, even if it's poisonous, what's there to be afraid of!" Tang Yin didn't care, tore open the envelope, took out the letter inside, and unfolded it for a closer look.

This letter was indeed written by Xiao Wu, with neat and beautiful small characters, but the strokes are full of heroic spirit.

"It is a great blessing to meet His Highness Feng Wang in Yujing. This trip to Andi is really worthwhile. I have admired His Highness for a long time. This time I met him and I found that His Highness is worthy of his reputation.

I dare to make a bet with His Highness. Within three days, I will steal all the silver vaults in Yujing. If successful, I will win. If not, I will lose. At that time, the loser must meet the winner's request, any request. I wonder if Your Highness has the courage to try?

In addition, I have another request. The jade pendant I wear is a gift from my father. It is a small gift but a heavy sentiment. Miss Yin Lan, please keep it well and don't lose it. Remember, remember, I thank you very much."

At the end of the letter, it was signed as "Princess Hongxiu".

After reading the letter, Tang Yin burst out laughing. Now, things have become simple. Xiao Wu took the initiative to admit that she is Princess Hongxiu, and he doesn't need to send anyone to investigate.

"My king, what is written in the letter?" Yin Lan asked curiously.

"Take a look yourself. There is a special mention of you in it." Tang Yin handed the letter to Yin Lan with a smile.

The latter took it quickly. After reading it carefully from beginning to end, she curled her lips and muttered angrily: "It is indeed the fifth princess of Chuan Kingdom, Xiao Xiang... Since this jade pendant is so important to her, I can't return it to her! I won't give it to her even if it is broken."

Listening to her angry words, Tang Yin shook his head and laughed, and then fell into deep thought. In the letter, did Xiao Xiang mention that she would steal all the silver in the treasury of Yujing City within three days?

When the An army evacuated Yujing, the silver vault had been emptied. It was empty, without a penny of silver. With the arrival of the Feng army, there was silver in the silver vault, but it was the spoils of war that the Feng army had obtained along the way to Yujing and the military pay of the Feng army. The amount was huge and could not be missed.

Tang Yin pondered for a moment, he snorted and laughed, waved to the left and right and said: "Let's go! Go back to the county capital!"

After returning to the county capital, Tang Yin immediately ordered to summon the generals of the Ninth Army and the New Army to discuss military affairs.

When the generals of the two armies were all present, Tang Yin took out Xiao Xiang's letter and handed it to everyone to circulate, and said with a smile: "Everyone, tell me, is it possible for this unruly Princess of Chuan to steal all the silver in the silver vault within three days?"

"My king, what's going on? Is Princess Hongxiu of Chuan now in Yujing?" Qi Heng asked after reading the letter, shaking the letter paper.

Tang Yin nodded and winked at Yin Lan. Yin Lan understood and recounted the whole story in general. Of course, she avoided talking about anything about Shadow and changed the people of Shadow to guards of the Guard Battalion.
