Chapter 143: VIPs
At the birthday banquet, there were not a few people who sincerely sent their blessings to the virtue of the queen mother and the majesty of the queen mother, and there were many people who took the opportunity to show their loyalty to the emperor on the occasion of the birthday gift.
But it was the first person like Tang Yinbrown who dared to openly make a request to the monarch of a country at the birthday banquet.
So when his words fell, the atmosphere in the hall, which had just eased because of the emperor's enthusiasm, instantly solidified again.
At the moment when everyone surrendered, the eyes of the foreign envoy who knelt down in front of the emperor's bed became complicated - some did not hide the admiration in their eyes, and more they were puzzled, worried, and even afraid.
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, frowning at Tang Yinbrown, as if he wanted to see through his intentions.
But in Tang Yin's brown eyes, apart from being frank and unrestrained, there was no emotion or private messages mixed in it - it seemed that the so-called request was not his excessive request to Emperor Xiyou, but just a reluctant request.
After all, the emperor appreciated Tang Yinbrown more than he was on guard.
If you really wanted to suspect Tang Yinbrown's ulterior motives, when I heard that he asked to see him just now, I should have stopped people outside the hall early.
At this moment, since he had already let him in and received his knife, in front of hundreds of civil and military officials and even the people of the world, it was impossible for the emperor to suddenly change his mind halfway and refute Tang Yinzhong's request, which was tantamount to slapping himself in the face.
Tang Yinhao should be very clear about this.
Thinking of this, the emperor secretly admired in his heart that this person not only had the courage of a martial artist, but also had the strategy of a general.
"Good! Tang Shaoxia is really bold and outspoken. Case. I am also happy, if you have any requests, just say it, as long as it is not a major matter that hurts my Xiyouli people, I will meet you. ”
Such a heavy promise, if it were not from the mouth of the king of a country, I am afraid that ordinary people can only listen to it as a joke.
But now that the emperor of Xiyou said it, the civil and military officials present couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and they couldn't help but be in awe of this miraculous Tang Shaoxia who was spread by the rivers and lakes - judging from his weight in the emperor's heart alone, he was afraid that he was beyond the reach of Xiyou's subjects.
Tang Yinbrown naturally knew that for a person who had never known his life, he made such a promise just by relying on the rumors of the rivers and lakes and his own eyes. How much risk the Emperor was willing to take - he calculated that the Emperor would be unable to ride a tiger after he had his own sword. But he didn't expect this foreign emperor to think so highly of himself.
Thinking of this, Tang Yin's brown eyes were full of sincerity and gratitude, and after thanking him repeatedly, he expressed his intention.
"It's true. In the next rush to the feast. In addition to wishing to send tribute to His Majesty and Niangniang. And for one person.
"This person's name is Xin Zi, and he is a close relative, but a few days ago, when our people fought with Lord Zuo Qiyang outside Dragon Claw City. There was some misunderstanding, and by mistake, Lord Zuo brought people to Xijing.
"Come down again this time, I just hope that Your Majesty will be gracious and let Xin Zi go back with me."
The Emperor groaned when he heard this.
It's this Xin Zi again......
She was brought back by Zuo Qiyang and arranged by the Empress Dowager, so she was very pleasing to the Empress Dowager, this emperor is clear, and two days ago, there was an accident in the prince's bedroom, she risked death to save her, which made the emperor inevitably look at this powerless little girl.
Unexpectedly, not long after the incident, this Xin Zi's name came out of the mouth of Tang Yin, who suddenly visited.
He wants this person from himself?
Since Xin Zi attracted his attention two days ago, the emperor took a spy to check her details, but because of the rush of time, now he only knows that she is a prisoner of war from Dongyuan brought back by Zuo Qiyang, because she once studied under the medical Xianliu Siqi and has some skills to cure diseases and save people.
Other than that, no other definite news has come out.
There is just a rumor, when the spy came to report, he casually said it, but the emperor was shocked into a cold sweat - it is rumored that the reason why this Xin Zi was able to win the favor of the Empress Dowager and her old man was because her appearance was extremely similar to an old person in the "Yuanmen Incident" back then, and the Empress Dowager wanted to make up for the regrets of the year, so she loved this little girl very much.
If this rumor is true, then this Xin Zi is by no means an ordinary person - she is most likely involved in the witch clan.
Whenever it comes to witches, the emperor is very jealous.
He knows too much information about the enemy country, and he has seen too much filth of the Dongyuan royal family openly and secretly. He tasted that a person thought about it, but after all, he couldn't understand why a mysterious race, after being innocently involved in human strife, could do nothing and cause an uproar in a huge empire.
But in addition to his confusion, he was more afraid of the demon race - he was afraid that one day he would come into contact with this race, and he would also fall into the dark whirlpool like the current Dongyuan royal family, and destroy the foundation created by his ancestors.
So even if it was just some clues now, he still sent more people to carefully track down Xin Zi's background.
But now the results of the investigation have not been reported, but Tang Yinbrown has been killed halfway to ask for someone.
The emperor was in a complicated mood at this time, and he couldn't tell whether he could finally get rid of the relieved brown relief brought by this ominous person, or the unwillingness and loneliness of just cutting off an important clue.
Should you let go and agree to Tang Yinbrown's request?
The emperor was hesitating, and his gaze swept to the empress dowager, who had been sitting quietly on the side, with a calm expression and a somewhat cold gaze, and then he suddenly realized that this decision was never with him.
"Tang Shaoxia, I can't hide it, I'm afraid that I won't be able to call the shots in this matter." The emperor replied with a smile: "It's just that this Xin Zi girl in your mouth is now a person from the Sacred Heart Palace, and she is afraid that she will have to invite the Empress Dowager to show her to see if her old man is willing to cut her love." ”
Tang Yinbrown was slightly moved: During the days that Ah Zi was in Xijing, he was actually favored by the most noble woman in Xiyou and even the whole world? It seems that she is living a good life here, but she is too careful...... Perhaps, she can get far more from this Xiyu than she can give, at least she can stay away from the Dongyuan royal family......
Thinking of this, Tang Yinbrown's heart was a little shaken, but now, since he had opened his mouth, it was the water that was spilled, and there was absolutely no reason to take it back, so at this time, he had to follow the emperor's consciousness and ask the empress dowager for permission again.
The Empress Dowager, who had been sighing in her heart from the moment Tang Yinbrown opened her mouth to ask for someone, was full of gloom at this time, but she did not refuse a word after all: "Xin Zi is waiting in front of me as she says, but I am more like a family member than a master and servant, if you want to take her away, just go and ask her what she means, whether to go or stay, it's up to her." I would respect her decision. (To be continued.) )
