Episode 10 Chapter 29
Chapter 29
Hearing Kenis's question, Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "First, I like Princess Xiaona, and second, it also makes the relationship between the two countries become closer after the marriage."
Kenis nodded and said: "There are reasons for this, but I'm afraid these are not the most fundamental?"
Yo? Tang Yin raised his eyes and looked at Kenis. Although the latter's face was still sick and frighteningly pale, he was much more energetic and his eyes were shining brightly. Looking at his expression, he looked completely different from the sickly one just now. Are the two of them pretending to be sick? Tang Yin was confused. If Kenis was pretending to be ill, then why did he do this? Doesn't it have anything to do with your wedding?
Even Tang Yin, who was so smart, was filled with questions by Kenis' sudden change.
Seeing that Tang Yin was silent for a long time, Kenis smiled and said: "As far as I know, an entire legion of the Feng Kingdom's army is stationed in Tongmen. This is very strange."
Tang Yin smiled bitterly. Besa's news was really well-informed, but it was normal. After all, there were Besa merchants all over the Feng Kingdom. It was inevitable that there would be Besa's spies among them. Seeing the Sanshui Army stationed in Tongmen was not a big deal. What a strange thing
Tongmen is located between Fengdi and Ningdi. For the current Fengguo, Tongmen is already an inland checkpoint. It's all right. It would really be surprising to send a legion to Tongmen. Tang Yin lowered his head and his mind was racing. Turning around, wondering what Kniss meant by asking.
After thinking for a moment, Tang Yin made up his mind and decided not to beat around the bush. He suppressed his smile, narrowed his eyes, and said word by word: "I plan to send troops to Tia."
Kenis seemed to have expected such an answer from Tang Yin, and was not surprised at all. He asked: "Does the Wind King want to join forces with Du Ji to destroy Tia, and then get a share of the pie?"
Tang Yin raised the corner of his mouth and said, "On the contrary, I want to help Tiya fight against Du Jijun."
It was very risky for him to say this so bluntly. You must know that Bessa is an ally of Dukey. Both countries belong to the Morpheus Federation. Frankly admitting that he wants to fight Dukey in front of Knis is a lot of courage.
Although Queen Ashley Portman ignored national affairs, her body was shaken after listening to Tang Yin's words, and the tea in the cup in her hand also spilled a little.
Kniss stared straight at Tang Yin with his deep eyes. He didn't say anything for a long time. The atmosphere in the room seemed to solidify all of a sudden. After half a minute of depressing terror, Kniss suddenly threw his head back and laughed loudly and said : "This is the real purpose of the Wind King to marry the princess."
Seeing the old king smiling, Tang Yinti's heart dropped a little, and he said calmly: "What do you mean, His Majesty the King?"
Kenis said: "You want to send troops to Tia to fight against Du Ji, but you are also afraid that I, Besa, will aid Du Ji, or even directly send troops to your Feng country, so you want to tie Besa to your side of Feng country through marriage. , even if I can’t help you fight Du Ji, I won’t turn against your Feng Kingdom, the Feng King, am I right?”
How does this old man look like he is critically ill? Now Tang Yin could be 100% sure that Kniss was pretending to be sick. His pale face was probably caused by makeup. However, he still couldn't figure out the reason why Kniss was pretending to be sick. Since his purpose had been seen through by the other party, Tang Yin simply opened the skylight. Speaking frankly, he said: "I am confident that our army will defeat the Duki army when it enters Tia. In order to attack Tia, Duki has already devoted all its efforts to attack Tia. As long as it is defeated in Tia, its national strength will be greatly damaged and its vitality will be destroyed." Serious injury, if Besa is on the side of our Feng Kingdom, we can take the opportunity to send troops to Duji and annex it easily."
Tang Yin talked eloquently, and Kenis listened attentively, while Ashley and the servants present were sweating. In their opinion, Tang Yin was simply crazy. Not only did he want to go to war with Du Ji, he also wanted to drag Bessa to send troops to the allies. , how is this possible?
But to everyone's surprise, after Tang Yin finished speaking, Kenis nodded his head and murmured: "If Du Ji really loses in Tia, this is indeed a rare opportunity."
"Your Majesty." Ashley's golden eyebrows frowned. She stood up and walked to Kenis's side. She nervously held his hand. She didn't say much, but her trembling hands revealed that she was concerned about this matter. Kennis understood her thoughts and patted the back of her hand gently, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
He smiled at Tang Yin and said, "I'm glad that Feng Wang is still as straightforward and ambitious as before." After a pause, he asked again, "What does Feng Wang think of my body?"
Tang Yin was happy and said: "You are very strong. You can live for at least another twenty or thirty years."
Kenis laughed again and said: "It turns out that the Wind King has noticed that I am pretending to be sick."
“I just saw it”
"Do you know why I pretend to be sick?"
Tang Yin really didn't know this. He shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Kenis said: "In our court of King Besa, there are many ministers who are close to Du Ji. If we send troops to Du Ji, these ministers will become a huge resistance, so before I send troops to Du Ji, I must clear out these people, including me. ’s brothers and his henchmen”
hiss
As soon as the words came out, there was a sound of inhalation in the room. The faces of the servants waiting in the room became uglier. On the one hand, they were shocked by Kenis's words, and on the other hand, they also hated themselves for hearing too much. In the palace, the more secrets you know, the closer you are to death.
What Kenis could say was beyond Tang Yin's expectation. He had always thought that the king of Besa was an approachable and even a bit weak old man. Otherwise, he would not have been able to indulge Sanchez so much and let him be arrogant and domineering in Besa. Who could Even the old man ignored him. Now it seems that his guess was wrong. The approachable and weak temperament were just Knis' disguise. The old man was not only cunning to the extreme, but also very cruel. To his surprise, Knis turned out early. Anticipating that Feng Guo wanted to send troops to Tia to fight Du Ji, he started making equipment early, pretending to be sick to paralyze the internal and external resistance, and wait for the opportunity to eradicate them all.
What a treacherous old fox this is! Tang Yin sighed quietly in his heart
In fact, in a country like Besa, how could someone sitting on the throne of the king be a mediocre person? Kenis was not the first heir to the throne, but he successfully became the king of Besa, and his hands were covered with blood, including the blood of his relatives.
It's just that as he grows older, Kenis's temperament does become less violent than when he was young, but the sleeping lion does not mean that it has lost its teeth and claws.
In the past, Tang Yin only thought that Alden Ehrenreich, the king of Du Kei, was very ambitious. In fact, Kenis's ambition was much greater than that of Alden.
Kenis floated out of bed, walked slowly in the room, and said: "The marriage is very good, it is very beneficial to you and our two countries. You want Tia, I want Duji, each gets what he gets."
It can be seen without asking that Kenis has long wanted to annex Du Qi, and his proposal of marriage catered to Kenis's wishes. No wonder he agreed to the marriage so happily and insisted on coming to Bessa in person.
"Haha" Wanting to understand this, Tang Yin smiled leisurely and said, "His Majesty the King said that I am ambitious, so why am I not the same?"
"Haha..." Kniss laughed
Now, Tang Yin is just trying to make Feng Country strong and eliminate external threats. If possible, it would be best to expand the territory. But Kenis's ambition is greater than Tang Yin. What he wants is the entire Morpheus Federation. , established a vast and highly unified Besa dynasty
Fengguo and Besa, one is in the northernmost part of the Haotian Empire, and the other is in the southernmost part of the Morpheus Federation. They are in different countries and have different goals. However, the two countries border each other and are afraid of each other. If they can form an alliance, In one place, there are less worries and a strong backer and helper. Marriage has become an inevitable trend between the two countries.
As Knis said, if Besa wants to attack Duqui, he must first eliminate the ministers in the court who are pro-Duqui, and Sanchez is the representative of pro-Duqui. Of course, the reason why he wants to eliminate Sanchez is not only for annexation In addition to the Duki incident, after all, the two are brothers. Kenis would not kill his brother because of the Duki incident. There is another underlying reason, which is to pave the way for his heir.
Knis is getting older and has begun to think about the issue of succession. When he was around, Sanchez might not dare to do anything, but when he is gone and his heir becomes the king, will Sanchez still be so stable? With his power in Bessa, once chaos breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous
If he wants his heir to sit firmly on the throne of the king, Kenis can only completely eradicate all the hidden dangers in the court, and the biggest hidden danger among them is Sanchez
Sanchez's position in Besa has long been entrenched. He has many party members both internally and externally. How many ministers and generals in the government and the army have been bribed by Sanchez? Pretend to be sick and show weakness, and wait until all his henchmen surface before cleaning them out. Otherwise, even if he acts hastily, it is likely to trigger a major turmoil in Bessa.
At this time, Tang Yin and Kenis no longer had anything to hide. They both expressed their thoughts, firstly to reassure the other, and secondly, in the hope of getting help from the other.
"I can't accompany you these days when the Wind King is in Besa. Come to think of it, there are many opportunities to meet Sanchez. I hope the Wind King can..."
"If you can do your best to offend Sanchez and make him hate Feng Country, when Feng Country sends troops to Tia, Sanchez and his followers will immediately jump out and advocate aiding Du Qi and sending troops to Feng Country, right? " Before Kenis could finish speaking, Tang Yin had already continued what he was about to say and finished what he wanted to say next.
Secretly saying that he is a smart young man, Kenis nodded with a smile and said quietly: "Only in this way can I clearly distinguish who is my people and which are Sanchez's people."
