What a good sharing of the six countries! The wind, Mo, jade and Zhen Country were not even close at all. In the middle, there was either Huan Country or Ann Country, which was even further to the north and southwest, so even if they were divided into territories, how could they be managed?
Ling Shuang clenched her fist tightly. It was only now that she understood Xiao Xuan's intentions, the reason why he had sought out the Three Kingdoms, was clearly because he wanted the Three Kingdoms to work for free. On the other hand, with An An and Huan's fear of Chuan Country, even without guessing, it was clear that Chuan Country was the biggest advantage one could take after chastity.
Xiao Xuan wanted to swallow the Zhen Country, so he didn't dare say it openly. He pulled the other five nations to work with him, and even found an excuse that was fair and sound, one that helped the Son of Heaven to go against him and help him walk the path of justice.
In the battle of chastity, if the six nations lost their shares and the last bit of cheap Chuan Country took over, how could there be such a good thing in the world?
Ling Shuang's face became uglier and uglier. She clenched her small hands under the table even tighter, her joints turning white from exerting too much strength.
He could understand that if Tang Yin, who was sitting right next to her, saw her reaction, he would despise Xiao Xuan, even though he looked like Sven Ping was scheming all over the place. However, turning against Xiao Xuan now was not the smartest decision.
He quietly reached out his hand and wrapped Ling Shuang's fist with it.
The latter was shocked as he turned his head to look at him in surprise. Tang Yin sat there, not batting an eyelid, still wearing the same faint smile on his face. But under the table, he stealthily opened her fingers and quickly wrote two words on his palm: Learn Me.
Ling Shuang was also an extremely smart girl, she understood what Tang Yin meant immediately. She took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.
Tang Yin and Ling Shuang could pretend to be dumb, but Shao Fang couldn't take it anymore. He suddenly burst out laughing, and said: "Elder Royal Brother Xiao, my Mo Country is thousands of miles away, even if I am in the territory of the Zhen Country, how do you want me to rule over it?"
Xiao Xuan had already thought of the wording long ago, and said with a smile: "Regarding this point, Shao Wang Di doesn't have to worry, if the Mo Country is located in the north and cannot be used to manage the divided Zhen Country territories, the Chuan Country can be used to manage them. Every year, the taxes, grains, and Chuan Country will not be taken out nor taken, and all of them will be sent to the Mo Country, what do you think, Shao Wang Di?"
"This ?" If that was the case, it was acceptable. Shao Fang rolled his eyes, laughed and said: "Elder Royal Brother Xiao is still the best, let's do it according to Royal Brother's wishes!"
Xiao Xuan then said to Tang Yin and Ling Shuang, "Of course, the wind and jade kingdoms are the same as the Mo Country. After the chastity is done, the divided territories will be temporarily taken care of by me, and the taxes and grains will be sent to the two of you ?"
This time, before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin had already waved his hand and said: "This king thinks it is inappropriate for Elder Royal Brother Xiao to say that."
Hearing that, everyone frowned, they were secretly speechless, Tang Yin had such guts, to actually dare to openly oppose the King Chuan.
He continued: "For the sake of the Son of Heaven, I do not seek repayment for my Feng Country. As for the matter of dividing the territories, no need to even think about the Feng Country, my Feng Country will automatically forfeit. The territories that should have been divided into Feng Country, shall be split fairly among them! "
When he said that, everyone present opened their mouths wide, even Xiao Xuan did not expect Tang Yin to give up on splitting up the Zhen Country, it was simply too inconceivable, why would Tang Yin be so generous?
Ling Shuang, who was standing on the same side as Tang Yin, was also completely baffled. King Chuan's conditions were not bad, he was in charge of the territories that were split up using Chuan Country, and every year, he would even give back the taxes and grains.
Although Tang Yin had never gone to the Zhen Country before, he still had some understanding of the circumstances of the Zhen Country. The Zhen Country area had a large number of people (Otherwise, it would be impossible for everyone to gather troops), and most of them were barren land, with a piece of dog shit tax and grain production. In addition, if Chuan Country were to manage the land in their stead, it would be extremely easy to forge them. He can give you as much as he wants. Wait until Xiao Xuan doesn't even want to give you a single cent, what can you do with him?
Rather than being restricted by others, it was better to be a bit more generous and not split up the land and take the opportunity to fight for the best benefits from other areas.
Xiao Xuan did not know what Tang Yin was planning, but he asked suspiciously, "Does Younger Royal Brother Tang really not plan to separate the Zhen Country?"
"That's right!" Tang Yin answered straightforwardly.
Hearing him confirm again, the doubt on Xiao Xuan's face was gradually replaced by a smile. He was just about to speak when Tang Yin continued: "Of course, my Feng Country will not send out troops for nothing. The condition for Feng Country to give up the feudal fiefdom is that during the battle for chastity, everything that Feng Army took away would all belong to Feng Country and everything that other nations took away would be taken out and divided equally with Feng Country. "
After Xiao Xuan and the rest heard this, they did not know whether to laugh or cry. They did not know whether to say that Tang Yin was pretending to be smart or call him stupid.
No matter how many spoils of war he had captured, there must be a certain amount of them. Dividing the territories together was not the same, since age could make money and produce food, which could make his country profit over time. How could a trivial spoil of war be comparable to that?
How could anyone object to that? The various dukes looked at each other, then all nodded their heads and replied: "We will completely accept Younger Royal Brother Tang's suggestion, and we will act according to Younger Royal Brother Tang's wishes. Feng Country does not split between us, and we will split the spoils equally with Feng Country!"
Tang Yin cupped his hands and said: "Thank you for taking care of me as the Royal Brother!" As he said that, he quietly kicked Ling Shuang's feet from under the table, telling her to not forget about the reminder.
It was obvious that he had suffered a loss, but Tang Yin insisted on doing it. Ling Shuang did not understand what he was thinking. But was Tang Yin's idiot? Of course not. On the contrary, he was smarter than ghosts when he was young. He would not do things that would be disadvantageous to him.
Relying on her understanding of Tang Yin and her unspeakable trust, Ling Shuang muddle-headedly said to the various kings: "My Yu Country is the same as my Feng Country, I give up on dividing the territories, and only want the spoils of war."
Damn! Yet another fool had come! It truly was like a gathering of objects and people in a group. For Tang Yin and Ling Shuang to get married, it could be said that it was a 'match made in heaven'.
At this time, even the calm Xiao Xuan started laughing out loud, nodding he replied: "Alright, just as sister Ling Wang wishes! Since both the wind and jade countries had given up on dividing up the territories, after the chastity, the Zhen Country territories would be divided equally between Fang Chuan, An, Huan and Mo. Of course, to be fair, all the spoils of war captured by the Feng and Yu armies will belong to the two nations. The spoils of war from the other four nations will be divided equally with the two nations.2
"No!"
"Yes!" So be it! "
All the kings had no objections, and the matter was settled accordingly. After that, the six kings began to negotiate over the details of the war on the extermination of chastity, including the timing of each country's military deployment, the number of troops dispatched, the division of troops, the logistics, provisions, and supplies.
Time flew. By the time everyone had decided on the details, the sky had already darkened. Seeing that all the Kings were exhausted, Yue Ze immediately called for everyone to take a seat at the palace hall, and they all drank together.
In the hall, the banquet had long since been arranged. The throne in the middle was that of the Emperor. No one dared to sit, and the kings on both sides sat down. As for the officials they had brought with them, they were arranged in a row.
The atmosphere of the banquet was lively, even Shao Fang who was not in a good mood recently was eating and drinking happily.
Although Tang Yin had split up his Mo Country by five counties, he suffered greatly in the matter of exterminating chastity. He took the initiative to give up his territory while holding back his Yu Country, but it gave Mo, Chuan, An and Huan four nations an advantage.
The vast Zhen Country consisted of a total of twenty-one counties, divided equally between four nations, with a minimum of five counties. The five counties where the Mo Country had been split into were instantly redeemed, so how could Shao Fang not be excited? Obtaining the Zhen Country of five countries would allow the Mo Country to be like added wings, and once the sufficient number of people was replenished, it would also be no problem to snatch back the five countries that were split up in one go. At that time, it would be the time for Mo Country to counterattack. Shao Fang calculated in his heart. The more he thought, the more pleased he was with himself, and the smile on his face became wider.
The banquet went on smoothly, with the kings chatting and laughing while eating wine and food. After the majority of the food and wine was eaten, Yue Ze clapped his hands and called for the dancers who were already prepared to dance, cheering the various kings on.
The wealth of Ann Country was famous among the other kingdoms. Even the dancers were made of gold and silver, dressed gracefully and gracefully. Furthermore, they were all young ladies of the perfect age, dancing in the hall, causing everyone to feel intoxicated from it.
When the dance music ended, Yue Ze clapped his hands again. The dancers automatically dispersed, and one by one threw themselves into the embrace of the kings.
Tang Yin did not like strangers getting close to him, especially when it was in Ann Country. He had to be careful at all times, and when the two dancers came towards him from both sides, Tang Yin waved his hands and pushed them away.
The two girls looked at him in shock, the smile on Yue Ze's face froze, and he did not understand what was going on. However, he did not dare reprimand Tang Yin, so he pointed at the two girls and asked: "Two lowly girls, how did you offend the Feng King?"
Both women turned pale in fear as they knelt down and kowtowed again and again.
Tang Yin laughed leisurely, then said to Yue Ze: "Elder Royal Brother Yue has misunderstood, the two of them are very good."
"Then why did Younger Royal Brother Tang ?"
"With Madam here, how could This King dare to hug you left and right?" While Tang Yin was speaking, he conveniently glanced at the Ling Shuang beside him. Sometimes, he had to admit that Ling Shuang could really help him block a lot of trouble.
If he had not mentioned it himself, everyone would have forgotten that he and Ling Shuang had long ago become husband and wife. Yue Ze also suddenly realized and patted his round head, and laughed out loud: "Aiya, I was careless, it's a sin, a sin!" Saying that, he smiled at Ling Shuang, and said: "Spirit King sister, I have made mistakes in my arrangements, please do not take offense to my arrangements!"
Ling Shuang forced a smile: "How could that be! Elder Royal Brother Yue is too polite. " As she spoke, she didn't forget to sneakily glare at Tang Yin, warning him not to push everything onto her.
