Chapter 683
The person who came ran straight towards Tang Yin and Cheng Jin, who didn't know what was going on, subconsciously touched the saber on his waist, and stepped in front of Tang Yin, making a posture of drawing the knife.
However, after Cheng Jin saw the appearance of the person who came, he let go of the hand that grabbed the handle of the knife, and then quickly retreated to Tang Yin's side.
Tang Yin stood still and didn't move, just looked at the person curiously.
It turned out that the person who ran over was just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, petite, Tang Yin estimated that she might not even be one meter four, looking at her face, she looked pretty and delicate, with long hair, tender skin, big eyes, like a porcelain doll.
He had never seen this little girl, and he didn't have any impression in his mind, he thought that it might be a maid in the palace, but looking at her clothes, the texture of the satin, the fine workmanship, and the gorgeous style, it was by no means something that ordinary maids could wear.
Strange, who is this little girl? Tang Yin was quite puzzled.
The little girl who ran out of the arch obviously didn't expect to meet a stranger, so she hastily stopped her steps, her big furry eyes turned around Tang Yin and Cheng Jin, and the crisp and pleasant ringing came to an abrupt end.
"Who are you?"
Tang Yin and the little girl asked at the same time in unison.
At this moment, there was another sound of hurried footsteps, and two ten-year-old maids hurriedly ran out of the arch with their skirts in their skirts, and shouted in a wheezing voice as they ran: "Little princess, don't run anymore......
Out of the arch, the two maids saw Tang Yin at the same time, and the shouting was stuck in their throats, and they couldn't shout anymore.
After standing for a few seconds, the second daughter knelt on the ground in a panic, lowered her head and said, "King!"
Little princess? What little princess? Tang Yin was even more puzzled, and turned his head to look at Cheng Jin with a questioning face.
The latter approached and whispered: "King, this is Shao Xuan, the princess of Mozambique!"
"What?" Tang Yin heard this, his eyes first widened violently, and then he narrowed again, looking at the little girl in front of him again.
When Shao Xuan was sent to the palace, Tang Yin was in the palace and did not see her, and someone reported to him after returning to the palace, but Tang Yin did not take it to heart, these days are busy with official business, Tang Yin quickly forgot about this matter, if it wasn't for today's encounter with Shao Xuan, it is estimated that he would not have remembered that there was such a person as Shao Xuan in the palace.
In Tang Yin's impression, Shao Fang was already in her early thirties, and his sister had to be in her twenties, but he never expected that Shao Xuan was just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, so what did Shao Fang do when he promised her to himself and sent her to the Wind Country? Could it be that he wrote the word 'pedophile' on his face?
He took a few steps forward and approached the little girl, looking down at her.
Tang Yin was already tall, and the little girl was short, and the two stood together, she was only a little taller than Tang Yin's navel.
"You...... Is it Shao Xuan?" asked Tang Yin uncertainly.
"En!" the little girl nodded, tilted her head, met Tang Yin's gaze, and asked, "Who are you?"
"Tang Yin. Tang Yin reported his name and continued to ask, "How old are you this year?"
"XIV. The little girl replied very simply, then rubbed her neck and took two steps back, making it easier for her to see Tang Yin's appearance clearly. After looking at him from head to toe, she muttered in a low voice: "It turns out that you are Tang Yin, the husband whom Brother Wang asked me to marry." โ
Hearing her say the word husband, Tang Yin almost vomited blood. Before he could speak, the little girl let out a strange tsk again, her cheeks bulged, and she muttered dissatisfiedly, "It's okay, what are you doing so tall? I can't even see your face anymore." โ
Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, wondering if he had misheard, was this something that a princess of a country could say?
He took a deep breath, pointed at Shao Xuan, and said sideways: "Cheng Jin, immediately send someone to send her back to the country of Mozambique, the palace doesn't need little dolls, and I don't like to see little dolls!" After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Shao Xuan shouted angrily: "Stop!"
Tang Yin didn't want to pay attention to her, but she was very curious in her heart, why was she so bold, obviously she was a princess, Yan Yinghan was submissive in front of her, and this little girl dared to yell at herself, not to mention that she was only fourteen years old.
He stopped and looked back at her.
Shao Xuan's unladylike stride circled in front of him, poking Tang Yin's chest with his white fingers, and said angrily: "Brother Wang has already married me to you, what do you mean by sending me back now? How will I see people in the future? Even if I want to return to China, it should be me who proposes it, not you!"
Why is it so hard? She poked Tang Yin's chest, and secretly muttered in her heart: How does he look like he is made of stone!
The girl poked at herself quite enjoyable, Tang Yin was angry and funny, looking down at the top of her rickety head, he shook his head helplessly, such a small person, he was worried that he would trample her to death.
"I'll take care of you!" Tang Yin shrugged, bypassed the 'villain' in front of him, and continued to walk out.
"Hey, heyโ" Shao Xuan looked at Tang Yin's back as she walked farther and farther, and shouted in the back, but no matter how she shouted, Tang Yin didn't react, the little girl was extremely angry, bent down and picked up a stone on the ground, and threw it at Tang Yin.
"Princessโ"
The two maids behind her couldn't stop her, their faces turned white with fright, and their bodies trembled.
Tang Yin, who was walking out, didn't even look back, but just waved his arm back at will, knocking the stone flying towards the back of his head, and then he said to Cheng Jin again: "Send it back to Mozambique immediately!"
Cheng Jin looked embarrassed and said in a low voice: "King, isn't it too ruthless to send Princess Shao Xuan back to Mozambique like this?" Don't say that the princess can't stand it, even King Mo is afraid of ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to get off the stage!"
Tang Yin glanced at him sideways, and was about to scold, but after thinking about it, what he said was not unreasonable. Now that the two countries have just formed an alliance and are about to use troops against Ning together, it is indeed a bit inappropriate to return to the Mozambican princess at this time.
He sighed, which princess Shao Fang sent, it's just a trouble!
Cheng Jin rolled his eyes and said: "The king doesn't have to worry about this matter, let Princess Shao Xuan live in the palace for a while, wait a few days, and then send her back to Mozambique on the grounds that the princess is young and homesick. โ
"Yes! Hearing Cheng Jin like this, Tang Yin's heart felt a lot more comfortable, he smiled slightly, and said, "Just do what you want!"
Tang Yin accepted Cheng Jin's advice and did not immediately send Shao Xuan back to Mozambique, but he soon regretted his decision......
That night, Tang Yin went to Guo Tong's right minister's mansion for a banquet as scheduled.
Guo Tong's right prime minister's mansion is a new mansion, located in a more remote place. The houses in the center of Yancheng have been occupied by officials of the Wind Country, and although the ministers of the imperial court brought a lot of money with Yin Yan when they fled, they could only buy houses and land on the edge of the city.
Knowing that Tang Yin had arrived outside the mansion, Guo Tong and his son Guo Yu came out to greet him.
After meeting, Guo Tong and Guo Yu, father and son, both bowed to the ground and saluted Tang Yin.
Tang Yin smiled and waved his hand, exchanged a few words with the two, and then walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Don't look at his talk and laughter on the surface, but in fact, he doesn't have a good impression of the father and son. It's just that he needs a weighty person who can speak for him in the imperial court, and Guo Tong is undoubtedly the best candidate.
While walking towards the lobby, Guo Tong said apologetically to Tang Yin: "King Feng, the Prime Minister's Mansion was just bought by Lao Chen, the place is a little smaller, and the feet are a little off, there is a grievance against the Wind King, please forgive the Wind King!"
His words sounded like he was apologizing to Tang Yin, but there were words in his words.
Tang Yin was so smart that he understood what he meant as soon as he heard it. He said with a smile on his face: "Guo Xiang is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he has to enter the palace often to face the saint, and it is too inconvenient to enter and exit the palace if he lives in such a remote place. โ
"Yes, yes!" Guo Tong hit the snake with the stick, and replied again and again.
"Let's do it! Tomorrow, the king will choose a house near the palace and help Guo Xiang change it. Tang Yin said indifferently.
"Oops!" Hearing this, Guo Tong was surprised and delighted, stopped his steps, gave Tang Yin a deep salute, and said respectfully: "Thank you for the kindness of King Feng, I am really grateful." โ
"Hehe!" Tang Yin smiled, lifted Guo Tong's arm to help him up, and said: "This king helps you, naturally I also hope that Guo Xiang can help this king back, and in the future, in front of His Majesty, you can say a lot of good things for this king!"
Guo Tong has been a prime minister in Beijing for so many years, and he has long become an old fox who is proficient in the world, he smiled all over his face, nodded again and again, and said: "The Wind King is the loyalty of the country, no matter when, the old minister will stand on the side of the Wind King." โ
"Haha-" Tang Yin laughed, tacitly said no more, and walked into the lobby with Guo Tong and Guo Yu.
The banquet inside has already been prepared. Although Guo Tong was the landlord, he didn't dare to sit in the middle of the position, so he gave up his position to Tang Yin, and he and Guo Yu sat on the side.
The Shangguan brothers who came with Tang Yin were still very careful, and first checked the wine and food to confirm that they were non-toxic before retreating behind Tang Yin.
Eating with Guo Tong, there is nothing serious to talk about at all, and all they talk about is insignificant things.
Before he started drinking, Guo Tong first asked all the instrumental musicians and dancers in the house to come over and cheer up Tang Yin's performance.
Tang Yin doesn't like the song and dance performances of this era, but he doesn't hate it either, although he doesn't know how to appreciate it, he should watch it all lively.
Guo Tong toasted Tang Yin, leaned over and whispered: "King Feng, these dancing girls were brought by the old minister from Shangjing, if King Feng likes it, you can also take them back!"
Tang Yin was not interested in them, and compared with Yin Rou, who he liked, these beautiful dancing girls had all become vulgar fans and unsightly. He smiled indifferently: "A gentleman doesn't win people's love, Guo Xiang should enjoy it himself!"
