From Bianyang County of the state of Sichuan to Zhaoyang, the capital of the state of Sichuan, along the way, apart from the local army of the state of Sichuan, Tang Yin, a family army alone, met more than a dozen.
Some of the family armies were kind to him, while others were hostile. However, Xiang Hong''s family army had never met him again with such a brazen posture and threatened to kill him.
To make a long story short, Tang Yin finally arrived in Zhaoyang, the capital of Sichuan, under the escort of Xiao Wei.
The overall structure of Zhaoyang city is similar to that of Shangjing. It is divided into two urban areas. The scale of the inner urban area is slightly smaller than that of Yancheng, with solid double city walls, while the outer urban area is several times larger than that of the inner urban area. There are no walls on all sides, so it can extend outward anytime and anywhere.
If the two urban areas inside and outside Zhaoyang are added together, the floor area is not as big as that of Shangjing, but it is not much different. It can also be seen from the vast outer city area that the capital of Sichuan is developing rapidly, stable, prosperous, vigorous and full of vitality.
The architectural style of Zhaoyang city is consistent with that of other places in Sichuan. It is mostly based on wood structure and supplemented by stone. Therefore, it is not easy to see high-rise buildings in Sichuan. Most attics are two-story, and three-story attics are rare. No matter how high they are, they can''t be seen at all. However, the floor area of each building is very large, even for ordinary people''s homes.
The whole country of Sichuan attached great importance to Tang Yin''s visit, and Wang Xiaoxuan of Sichuan went out of the outer city to meet Tang Yin in person.
Although the two sides are not old acquaintances, they are definitely not strangers to each other. After the meeting, Xiao Xuan took the initiative to meet him, smiled, bowed his hands warmly and familiar and said, "brother Wang has worked hard all the way, which also makes brother Wang wait!"
Brother Tang Zhaoyang said, "I hope to see you soon, too!"
Xiao Xuan looked at Tang Yin up and down. He felt that Tang Yin had hardly changed since he said goodbye. On the contrary, he still looked a lot younger and radiant. He was much older and his hair was getting gray.
"OK! If you''re polite, you and my brothers don''t have to say more. Please come to the city!"
"Brother Xiao, please!"
Xiao Xuan held Tang Yin''s hand very closely, took him to his car, sat side by side with him, and then ordered him to go back to the palace.
Sitting in the carriage, Tang Yin also made a special intention to look around. Among the ministers of culture and military affairs of the state of Sichuan who followed Xiao Xuan out of the city to meet him, he also saw several "Acquaintances", one of whom was Ren Fang, the Duke of Ziyang of the state of Sichuan.
When the state of Sichuan organized the anti wind alliance, Ren Fang was the commander-in-chief of the coalition army. Since Tang Yin became the king of the wind, Ren Fang was the first and only person who led foreign troops to attack the land of the wind country. Tang Yin couldn''t be impressed by him.
On the way back to the palace, Xiao Xuan said with a smile, "brother Wang, you and I haven''t met again for two or three years since Zhendi said goodbye?"
Tang Yin calculated and nodded. "It''s been more than two years."
"How time flies! When I was in Zhendi, the monarchs of the five countries commanded the five armies. The spectacular scene seemed like yesterday, which was fresh in my mind!" Xiao Xuan sighed.
Tang Yin smiled calmly and said, "brother Xiao Wang still remembers."
Xiao Xuan asked, "have you forgotten the younger brother Wang?"
Tang Yin shook her head and said, "it''s not forgetting, but never thinking."
Xiao Xuan didn''t understand, "why is that?"
Tang Yin said with a smile, "I''ve heard a saying that when a person starts to get used to recalling the past, it means that he has begun to grow old."
Xiao Xuan was stunned, then laughed on his back, shook his head and said, "it seems that Gu is really getting old." After a pause, his eyes fell on Tang Yin''s face and said, "brother Wang looks much younger than when he was in Zhendi."
Tang Yin shrugged and said casually, "this must be one of the benefits of cultivating Lingwu!"
"I envy brother Wang very much..."
"Envy me for practicing Lingwu?" Tang Yin asked with a smile.
"I envy that there are so many capable generals under brother Wang''s command, and that he can manage the country in an orderly manner. Brother Wang can also take time to practice Lingwu." Xiao Xuan sighed.
On the other hand, I''m so busy just dealing with state affairs every day that I don''t have enough time to think about what I''m interested in.
Because you don''t know how to delegate power, a person should take charge of all national affairs, because you don''t understand the corruption of the aristocratic system, and a large number of talented civilians can''t find the opportunity to stand out. Tang Yin murmured in his heart.
He looked at Xiao Xuan, but couldn''t smile. He can''t say these words to Xiao Xuan. Even if he does, Xiao Xuan may not listen. I''m afraid he has to treat himself as an alien.
Xiao Xuan turned the conversation and said with a smile: "things are unpredictable. Who would have thought that yesterday you and our two countries were still fighting against each other. Today, brother Wang is already in the capital of our country!"
"Yes, the enemy and friends are just a line apart. The former enemies may become partners and face the common enemy together today."
Xiao Xuan moved in his heart and said, "the enemy brother Wang said is..."
"Shenchi!"
"Shenchi!"
The two of them spoke the word Shenchi almost at the same time. First, they were stunned for a moment, and then they laughed at each other.
Xiao Xuan leaned back and said, "as early as when you and my two countries were fighting in Huandi, Gu wrote a letter to brother Wang, which also mentioned that the enemy of our two countries was not each other, but Shenchi."
Tang Yin nodded his head and said sincerely, "I also deeply admire brother Xiao''s vision. It is precisely because of brother Xiao''s intelligence that I dare to venture to visit Sichuan this time!"
When he came to the capital of Sichuan in person this time, he was bound to be opposed by the officials of the wind country. Xiao Xuan could also understand how much resistance and pressure there was.
He bowed his head heavily and said positively, "brother Wang, please rest assured that in Sichuan, the orphan society will ensure the safety of brother Wang. If someone dares to make trouble with brother Wang openly and secretly, it will be equivalent to being an enemy with orphan!"
Tang Yin smiled and said, "if brother Xiao can say so, I''ll be relieved. Thank brother Xiao."
"Hey?!" Xiao Xuan waved his hand and said, "the person who should thank is a lone talent."
"What does brother Xiao Wang say?"
"Brother Wang once saved the lonely red tea princess. Shouldn''t Gu thank brother Wang?" Xiao Xuan said with a smile.
Tang Yin said lightly, "it''s just a little effort." He didn''t want to say much about it, and it was not a glorious thing for him to sneak into the state of Sichuan secretly.
Soon, the team entered the city and began to be lively outside.
Xiao Xuan made people pull up the curtain on the front of the carriage. Tang Yin raised her eyes and looked out. Well, the people of the state of Sichuan were standing on both sides of the street. Looking at it, the people were crowded and dark, and she couldn''t tell the number.
FengChuan is originally an enemy country. The people of Sichuan are also very curious about the country. They all want to see what the king of FengChuan looks like with their own eyes.
Look at Tang Yin, and then look out. Xiao Xuan said with a smile: "it seems that brother Wang is also very popular in our country!"
Tang Yin smiled leisurely, but secretly said in his heart: welcome is not necessarily. The eyes of Sichuan people look at themselves more like watching floods and beasts!
There was nothing to say on the road. I walked through the outer urban area of Zhaoyang for about an hour, while I also walked through the inner urban area for less than half an hour. Just entering the palace in the center of the city from outside the city, I walked out for more than an hour, which shows the vast area of Zhaoyang.
The Royal Palace of the state of Sichuan is very magnificent. The most spectacular thing is the rooftop in the Royal Palace, which is almost 20 meters high from a distance. It is located in the Royal Palace, just like standing out of the crowd. It can be clearly seen even outside the royal palace.
Xiao Xuan let Tang Yin into the palace and then gave a banquet to meet the wind.
The venue of the banquet was located in the garden of the harem. However, the ministers of culture and military affairs of Sichuan were not invited to the banquet. In addition to Tang Yin and Xiao Xuan, the participants were the childe and Princess of Sichuan. It''s more like a private banquet within the royal family.
During the banquet, Tang Yin also looked carefully at many CHILDES and princesses of Xiao Xuan.
The eldest childe Xiao Ting is very similar to Xiao Xuan. He looks handsome and thin, but his face is too pale, seems morbid, and his eyes are dull. The whole person looks listless and numb.
Xiao Yuan, the second childe, was very calm. He raised his hands and feet with the wind of a big general. He was as bright as a torch. He knew he was a smart and mature man at a glance. Xiao Yu, the third childe, is a boy and a woman. He looks more beautiful than the young and beautiful palace ladies around him. He sits there very quietly and doesn''t talk to the people around him. Xiao Peng, the fourth childe, is tall and majestic. He is a head higher than the people around him. He is not old, but he has a beard on his face. His two big ring eyes shine from time to time.
Looking down again, there is the five Princess Xiao Xiang. When Tang Yin looked at her, she winked at him playfully. Tang Yin nodded and smiled, then glanced at her, and then looked back. The remaining CHILDES and princesses also had their own characteristics.
It is the so-called dragon begets dragon, and Phoenix begets Phoenix. Just by visual inspection, Tang Yin has felt that these children of Xiao Xuan are not simple. Among them, the most eye-catching one was Xiao Ting, the eldest childe who attracted the least attention.
There was no reason. It was just out of his simple intuition. Xiao Ting felt so gloomy that he felt a sense of oppression. This is a person who can hide himself very well! This is Tang Yin''s first sense of Xiao ting.
Xiao Xuan first introduced his children to Tang Yin, then took up the wine glass and said with a smile: "brother Wang is willing to visit our country in person this time. It can be seen that he is full of sincerity. I''ll drink to brother Wang first!"
Tang Yin picked up the cup and said with a smile, "brother Xiao, please!"
"Please!"
They greeted each other, and then drank the wine in the glass. At this time, Princess Chuan, sitting next to Xiao Xuan, raised her glass again and said with a smile, "it''s better to meet than to be famous. My concubine should also have a drink to his highness King Feng."
The princess of Sichuan is not necessarily beautiful, but she is elegant, dignified and generous. She speaks and behaves appropriately. At first glance, she knows that she came from a beautiful family. Tang Yin had a good impression of her. After Yin LAN behind him filled his wine, he picked up his glass and said, "please, Princess!"
Xiao Xuan was very clever. He entertained Tang Yin first with a private banquet. There was no group of Ministers present. There was a lot of hostility and separation between the banquet. Instead, they could feel a little close to each other. Of course, this is what Tang Yin admires Xiao Xuan very much. He is quick in thinking and excellent in doing things.
