The road of the king, the minister and the husband

Chapter 81

The area of ​​the Western Jin Dynasty is much smaller than that of the Great Yin. If the size of a country is calculated according to the size of the city, then the combination of the Western Jin Dynasty and Fengzhou may be larger than the Great Yin.If you only look at the two countries separately, they can only be half of the land of Great Yin.

A martial artist in the Western Jin Dynasty, from a three-year-old child to an eighty-year-old man with long beards, would make gestures a few times.

Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Yiran lifted the curtain on one side and looked out. The streets in the imperial city were bustling with pedestrians. It didn't look like the king of a country was about to get married at all.

"Is there a problem?" Shrinking his head, Xiao Yiran turned to look at Yin Tianqi, who was leaning against the car wall beside him, and raised his eyebrows.

"Huh?" Yin Tianqi asked in confusion without raising his head as he lowered his head and picked the fruit shell in his hand.

"Ah, woo woo woo." He opened his mouth and ate the nuts Yin Tianqi fed him, chewing and chewing.

"You talk, is it because of some other reason?" Pointing to the outside of the carriage, Xiao Yiran tilted his head in confusion.

He came to the Western Jin Dynasty for the first time, so he didn't know why the emperors of the Western Jin Dynasty married concubines and the common people didn't celebrate.

"The Western Jin Dynasty is different from our Great Yin. People in the royal family basically don't share their joy with the common people, but... is marriage a happy event?" Yin Tianqi patted the crumbs on his hands and looked outside at the small vendors.

"I came to the Western Jin Dynasty once with my father, but that was when I was very young. It seems that the imperial city has not changed much in these years. I really don't know how to describe the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty. It's really shameful."

"Why didn't the first emperor annex the other two countries to stay? It's very easy to ask them to surrender with the strength of the Great Yin." Xiao Yiran frowned suspiciously, unable to understand.

It stands to reason that the first emperor was also an ambitious person, but he didn't conquer all directions, which puzzled him.

Yin Tianqi thought for a while, and suddenly laughed lightly.

"Father... maybe there are other things that you can't let go of." There are some things that they can't do whatever they want.If I hadn't promised my father to unify the world, I'm afraid I wouldn't be in the mood to sit in this position. If I didn't have Xiao Yiran by my side, I wouldn't be sure what I would be like.

Xiao Yiran pouted, leaning against the wall of the car boredly reached out to take a book out of the small cabinet and flipped through it.

"Hmm... I was wondering if we could mess up this marriage in the Western Jin Dynasty."

He always felt that if the marriage between the Western Jin Dynasty and Feng Zhou was successful, it might provoke a war between the two countries against the Great Yin, and they would be passively beaten at that time. He didn't think it was a good thing.

"Oh, even if they get married, it won't help. War will break out sooner or later. It's just to see if they resist or obey."

This is a very long process. Endless wars will only cause harm to the people. Yin Tianqi does not want to use the method of killing one thousand enemies and harming himself by eight hundred, so some things need to be carried out slowly.

Xiao Yiran was stunned by Yin Tianqi's words, not quite sure what he meant.

"Could it be a long time?" He curled his lips, a little unhappy.

He always imagined that it would be great if one day he could live in seclusion with Yin Tianqi in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, but now it seems that this wish will take a long time to come true. He likes Yin Tianqi, so no matter how long he will be with him man.

"I'm afraid it will take 20 years to unify this country." Yin Tianqi sighed and turned to look at him. Seeing his stiff expression, he knew that 20 years was too long for a child.

But he knew better, if they didn't do it, they probably couldn't leave the palace for the rest of their lives.

Xiao Yiran was obviously aware of this too, so he just sighed, then sat obediently by the side without making a sound.

As he grew older, Xiao Yiran's temper also changed a lot.

He is no longer the child who loses his temper casually, he has grown into a young man who will think about Yin Tianqi.

When they came to a large mansion, the carriage stopped, Xiao Yiran jumped out of the carriage and looked around.

This place is quite secluded, not a house facing the street, but more like a mansion where officials from the Western Jin Dynasty once lived.

"This is?"

"I bought it a few years ago, a general's mansion, and was executed later, so I bought the house when it was empty."

Yin Tianqi raised his hand and led him into the house, Xiao Yiran entered the house and looked around, and felt that the environment was pretty good.

"Executed? Tsk tsk, how sad."

"Heh, it's just a victim of the imperial power. There are not many people like this in any country or dynasty. They just stand in the wrong team. There is nothing sad or not sad." Yin Tianqi stopped his shoulder and walked inside.

The courtyard was empty but clean. There were no weeds or dust in the yard, and the square floor tiles made a rattling sound when stepped on.

"Why isn't there even a housekeeper?" Xiao Yiran raised his eyebrows and asked after entering the lobby and sitting on a chair.

"Heh, what housekeeper do you want? The people you brought here are enough to serve you. You didn't plan to stay here for a long time. You should be annoyed by having so many people." Knowing his temper clearly, Yin Tianqi chuckled.

Xiao Yiran shrugged and sat aside.

Xiao Qingzi brought a cup of hot tea over and put it on the small table, and said in a low voice, "Lunch has been ordered, Your Majesty and Young Master, please wait for a while."

"Go and rest, you don't need to wait." Xiao Yiran waved his hand to signal them to leave, then looked at Yin Tianqi, raised his eyebrows and said: "The news of our progress should reach the palace soon, right?"

"No, we just sneaked in secretly. The reserve officials and the army are not on the way, so don't worry." There is still some time before the royal wedding, and they can take advantage of this gap to look around.

Xiao Yiran nodded, expressing his understanding.

Yingxiao appeared and knelt in front of the two of them, with her head bowed.

"Master, this subordinate has something to report."

"Say." Yin Tianqi frowned, if there was no urgent matter at this time, Yingxiao wouldn't bother him.

"I found a dead body outside the city. Judging from its clothes, it should be a member of the royal family or the clan." Ying Xiao lowered her head, not looking at Yin Tianqi.

They found the royals when they first entered the city, which didn't look right in any way.

Xiao Yiran narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly.

"Outside the city? Where?"

"The ruined temple about a few miles away from here looks like it was poisoned to death, and it's about twenty years old." Ying Xiao half-raised his head and looked at Yin Tianqi, who had been silent all this time, and asked after a while: "Master, Do you want to deal with it?"

Yin Tianqi hadn't spoken yet, but Xiao Yiran interjected, "No, let's go and have a look."

He is currently researching the disguise technique, so he can find someone to try it out and see if he can do it in a similar way.
