An hour later

Tang Jin followed a small soldier and found Tang Xu and the others who were drinking tea in the big tent. When a few people saw Tang Jin coming back, they didn't ask him much where he had gone for so long, there were some things that Tang Jin was willing to say and they would listen, and if they didn't want to say that they wouldn't ask more, it would be unpleasant to ask.

And Tang Jin didn't know what cooperation he had reached with Wang Manzhan, or he felt that Tang Xu and the others couldn't help much, and he didn't tell a few people about Wang Manzhan looking for him.

"Brother Xu, is there any movement from General Chen Ling?" Tang Jin sat next to Tang Xu, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked while drinking.

Tang Xu nodded when he heard this, looked around and leaned into Tang Jin's ear and said, "General Chen Ling met with me just now, saying that he had already told the other three generals, although they did not express their position directly, they were obviously very moved. They said that they would wait for Brother Jin to come back and ask me about some things in person, so that they could decide whether to help us or not. ”

Tang Jin nodded clearly when he heard this, the other party's request was not too much, after all, what they wanted to do was such a big thing as rebellion, if they did it in a daze, maybe their heads would be gone, and they didn't know how they didn't have it. As for why Chen Ling agreed so happily...... Nonsense, a person who has nothing left but only one life, sees any opportunity to turn over, of course, will not hesitate to seize it.

"And when are they coming?" Tang Jin said casually.

"At about the time of the dinner, Deng Yuanfang died, and there were a lot of things in their hands, so they could have a little effort at night, and at the same time, they could be regarded as making amends for our crimes." Obviously, Tang Xu had arranged everything long before Tang Jin came.

Tang Jin didn't say anything, just nodded casually, drank a few cups of tea, ate some melons and fruits, stood up and stretched, and said while moving his muscles and bones: "I'm going to talk to death, you wait here slowly, I'll go shopping again, Qin Hai, a few of you will go with you, it's boring to be alone." ”

Qin Hai and the others didn't think much about Tang Jin being a master who couldn't sit still in the palace on weekdays, it would be better if Fang Xie Qing was with him, but it was really boring in this military camp.

Tang Xu opened his mouth and seemed to want to follow, and immediately thought that he and Tang Jin didn't seem to be familiar to the point of being inseparable, and now he proposed to be suspicious of surveillance, thinking that the future plan would rely on Tang Jin, if he left a gap now, it would be worth the loss, so he simply withdrew it to his lips, and sat there drinking tea and eating fruit.

Na Cheng thought, Tang Jin and the others didn't come back until the dinner, and Tang Jin was the only one who came back, Tang Xu frowned slightly and asked, "Brother Jin, why are you the only one who came back?" ”

Tang Jin was slightly stunned, then reacted and pointed behind him and said with a smile: "I took a few of them out in the afternoon, and I had a fight when I was bored, but I accidentally lost my strength and injured a few of them, and now they are healing." ”

"Uh......" Tang Xu was speechless when he heard this, do you masters and servants get along like this on weekdays? If you are bored, you can fight, or if you really fight, it is also thanks to Qin Hai and a few of them who can survive.

"That'...... It doesn't matter if they hurt, does it? Tang Xu couldn't help but ask embarrassed and pretended to be concerned.

Tang Jin waved his hand when he heard the words and said, "Don't worry, it's just that the move has been eaten by the True Qi, you can't die, and it's okay to breathe." ”

Tang Xu was also a martial artist himself, so he knew that this was not a serious injury, but it was a matter of cultivation, so it was better to recover as soon as possible.

"In that case, it doesn't matter, anyway, the four generals will mainly see us tonight, and it would be better for them to rest earlier." Tang Xu didn't care.

Tang Jin didn't say much, just nodded silently, and then walked straight into the military tent, behind which Chen Ling and the other four came together. Tang Xu also saw the four of them, and immediately followed Tang Jin back to the tent, and sat down under Tang Jin very well.

"The last general will see His Royal Highness the Prince! His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the king! ”

Chen Ling and the four of them walked in side by side, lined up in front of the two of them, and said in unison. Tang Jin nodded when he heard this, and said softly, "Get up." ”

"Xie Shizi! King Xie's eldest son! The four stood up at the same time and spoke in unison again. Looking at these four people at this time, Chen Ling, who was originally quite decadent, changed into brand new armor, and his hair bun and beard were also well cared for, returning to his former heroic appearance; Zhao Kun, on the other hand, was relatively miserable, shirtless, with his right arm hanging up, and a heavy white cloth wrapped around his shoulder; Similarly, Chen Lingyu also had a circle of white cloth wrapped around his forehead; As for Wang Manzhan, he is still dressed as a weak scholar, if it weren't for his ruthless methods in the afternoon, Tang Jin might really think that he is an ordinary scholar.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Manzhan took a step forward, bowed down and said: "Your Royal Highness, there are many misunderstandings in today's affairs, although Deng Yuanfang was ambushed, but after all, the prince was humiliated in the camp of our Zhenshan army, and we are also guilty of dereliction of duty as the commander of the army, not to mention that General Zhao Kun and General Chen Lingyu almost injured the prince. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Manzhan slammed his head, turned his head and glanced at the two, the two of them were not stupid, and immediately knelt on the ground, looking like they let Tang Jin fall, Wang Manzhan said: "Fortunately, the prince of the world is magnanimous and pardons the two of them for capital crimes, and the two generals also received the punishment according to the will of the prince, I don't know if the prince is still dissatisfied?" ”

Tang Jin glanced at the other party when he heard this, waved his hand and said: "Even if you are punished, it means that everything is written off, where is the reason to turn over old accounts?" ”

"Thank you for your great kindness!" Zhao Kun and the others are not fools, as soon as Tang Jin finished speaking, he hurriedly thanked him, and now the whole thing is over, if Tang Jin brings up the old thing again, it will be a slap in the face.

"In this case, I can't wait, I didn't know that the prince was coming, and I temporarily prepared wine and food for the prince to catch the wind and wash the dust." Wang Manzhan saw that the matter was open, and immediately shifted the topic to today's focus. At the same time, he secretly gave Tang Jin a look.

Tang Jin knew what the other party meant, and said with a slight smile: "That's thanks to the kindness of the generals." ”

After speaking, Wang Manzhan said "don't dare", and then beckoned the soldiers outside the tent to serve the food. Although this Wang Manzhan is clever on weekdays, but today's description of this meal is indeed not false at all, it is really a temporary preparation, a total of four dishes, a soup, all four dishes are vegetarian dishes, but there are a few finger-sized objects that seem to be pork ribs floating in the soup.

Tang Jin is nothing about this, he has never paid much attention to food, if there is good food, it is naturally good, and it doesn't matter if you don't have it, as long as you don't die. But Tang Xu is not as open-minded as him, where has he ever seen such a meal? Immediately, his brows furrowed.

Wang Manzhan seemed to see Tang Xu's dissatisfaction, and hurriedly explained: "The grain and grass in the army has always been managed by Deng Yuanfang, and today is the day when the grain and grass are delivered, but he died unexpectedly, and the grain and grass cannot be counted and cannot be used, so he can only use the previous grain and the vegetables grown by the soldiers in the army. ”

Wang Manzhan explained, Tang Xu didn't say much and just nodded helplessly, but looking at his appearance, he obviously didn't plan to move this dish that made people have no appetite when he looked at it.

The dishes were all ready, the wine was ready, Wang Manzhan took the wine jug and poured a glass for Tang Jin first, then poured a glass for Tang Xu, then poured a glass for the other three, and finally it was his turn.

"The last general, wait for the prince first, and thank the prince for not killing." Wang Manzhan raised his wine and saluted Tang Jin Yaoyao, and the other three people also followed closely behind, raising their glasses to Tang Jinyao. Tang Jin also picked up the wine glass for a while, but then put it down, and did not mean to drink.

Tonight's dinner is not a simple reception, except for Tang Xu, who basically have their own hearts, especially Tang Jin and Wang Manzhan, the things they discussed in the afternoon cannot be even more indifferent.

Therefore, Tang Jin did not plan to drink at this time, although a glass would not be too much of a problem, but prudence has always been his habit, and the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, no matter how much he can win, it may fail because of a little negligence.

As a result, an unusually shabby Hongmen banquet kicked off. And this has become the banquet that Tang Xu remembers the most, it is this time that he really saw Tang Jin's scheming and ruthlessness......
