Chapter 61 Master Jingling's Deterrence

Hey, today is another [-]-word update!
# # #
Sure enough, it was the beginning of Huachen.

The last ray of the setting sun began to sink into the sky, and the redness that had made half of the sky began to wash away, fade away, leaving only wisps of red strands gradually.

Almost as soon as Master Jingling's voice fell to the ground, countless torches were lit at the same time.In the light of the burning torches, a group of palace musicians blowing the sheng, playing the yu, beating the drum, and playing the xiao came meanderingly.

In almost a moment, the grass where the young masters were sitting was already lit with a hundred fires, and dozens of dancers came at the same time.

The dancers wore skirt-like gowns, with bare legs and copper bells tied to their ankles. As their waists twisted, the bells rang leisurely, with a clear and brisk rhythm.

On both sides of the dancers, there are two teams of maidservants with hands folded, carrying a few, and holding food boxes. There are hundreds of these maidservants coming through like butterflies.

Such a big formation!

The young masters looked at each other in blank dismay, and at the same time turned their heads to look at Young Master Jingling.

Under their stunned gaze, Mr. Jingling stood up lazily. He didn't wear a crown, but his hair was tied with jade. As he stood up, black hair spread over his broad shoulders like a cloud, and his black hair , black robe, with a lazy smile on the mountain-like features.

All of this seemed incomparably gorgeous.Yes, it is magnificence, a kind of magnificence derived from being born rich.

Mr. Jingling held a square green bottle, with a faint smile on his face. He looked at the young masters, and said with a bright smile: "Hua Chen is so beautiful, it's rare to have guests from afar. Joy." When he said this, he paused for a moment, and his tone became more serious, "How can wine and beauties show my demeanor? Prince Yan is the most important person in Marquis Qin, my fourth and fifth brothers There are also extraordinary talents. Therefore, I specially set up a large table here, and invite all the sages and diners who accompany you to sit. Today, the talents of Jin and the talents of Qin can also compete with each other."

He smiled loudly and talked eloquently. Before the young masters could react, they found that behind him was a crowd of sages and diners. land.

Debate is the habit of people at that time, from the noble son to the pariah, everyone likes it.In this world, there is a great way, but where is the small way?Everyone has too many questions to figure out.They are like newborn children, full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge about the world, the country, themselves, specific diseases, customs, and even diet.They need to use arguments to establish whether their cognition is correct or not.

Therefore, I am no stranger to debating several Qin people, but Mr. Jingling started it without saying a word, which is too arrogant!

Mr. Qin Yingyan narrowed his almond eyes, and looked carefully at Mr. Jingling, a faint uneasiness began to emerge.

If such noble sons go out, there will be many wise diners around them, and they will follow them every banquet.Therefore, although Mr. Jingling said it very suddenly, those diners had already settled elsewhere, and they arrived as soon as they were called.

To Wei Luo's surprise, the diners under Prince Jingling slowly entered the table until the six Qin envoys and the two sons' sages, diners and sword masters had all arrived.

There are no more than three diners sitting behind Mr. Jingling!Moreover, no one is a famous sage known to the world.

Everyone looked behind Mr. Jingling and looked at the three diners. When they found that Mr. Jingling was not free, that is to say, there would be no more sages on his side, they all had a bad face—— Master Jingling is really arrogant!He suddenly said that it was an open debate, but only three unknown people participated!This, this is really deceiving!
Young Master Jingling still had a lazy face, and the corners of his slightly curved lips were always smiling, but the smile was very faint, specious.

After waiting for everyone to enter, he raised his right hand and waved it casually.As soon as he made this movement, without him even needing to speak, Legie, the singing girl and maidservant who was walking around, stopped at the same time, and no more sound came out.

This sudden silence made the noises made by the patrons and sages behind Qin Fang's six people particularly harsh and disorderly, showing that their masters did not have sufficient restraint and majesty.

Young Master Jingling smiled, and the deep magnetic voice resounded, "My lords, this banquet is a problem."

He actually said that there is a problem for everyone to discuss, rather than letting people from various factions and schools argue among themselves.

For a moment, the diners and sages also stopped talking, and looked up at Young Master Jingling at the same time.The Eighth Prince of Jin Dynasty, Jing Ling, is too deceitful, so he must suppress his arrogance!So they listened carefully, ready to get out of it by arguing.

The deep voice of Mr. Jingling continued, "The topic of this discussion is as follows: If a country is located in the Central Plains, it is adjacent to a certain country of barbarians and Di." He had just said this, and everyone present changed expression.Mr. Jingling said this too clearly and too bluntly.The country in the Central Plains refers to Jin, and the country of Yi and Di refers to Qin.Qin and Xidi are adjacent to each other, and in the hundreds of years of exchanges, they have acquired many habits of Yidi talents, and they are often underestimated by the orthodox countries of the Central Plains.And Mr. Jingling's words were even more blatantly mocking.

Young Master Jingling still had a faint smile, his black eyes were as unfathomable as midnight, and he continued: "The kingdom of Yi and Di sees that a young master in the country of the Central Plains is powerful, and fears that he will be unstoppable. He wants to marry his father and brother to divide him."

This time, the audience fell silent.All the Qin people looked at each other, and the Qin swordsman standing behind even held the hilt of his sword, his muscles tensed.

As soon as the young master of Jingling was exposed to the sun, he raised the pitcher and started to drink. He swung the wine and asked loudly to the people on the left and right: "May I ask, how will this young master treat this land of barbarians?"

Demonstration!This is a naked demonstration!
Every Qin person's face changed greatly, and countless eyes looked at Qin Crown Prince Yingyan, waiting for his instructions.

Even the faces of the two Young Masters of Jin changed color. In fact, they were also one of the main candidates who the envoy of Qin deliberately wooed this time to deal with Young Master Jingling.

Ying Yan's round, always smiling face became gloomy, and he stared at Jingling, his thoughts turned.

Just as Mr. Jingling said, he did not have good intentions in coming to Jin this time as the majestic Prince Qin.Qin and Jin are adjacent to each other, and Jin is located in the Central Plains, so Zhan has inherent advantages.In the past, the Marquis of Jin was fond of wine and soft-hearted, but Qin Guo never worried about this neighbor.But in the past few years, seeing the young master Jingling grow up, seeing his great talent and boldness, he has hundreds of thousands of people in armor!

It is not a good thing to have such a strong neighbor. After much deliberation, the Qin people found that the best way is to divide the Jin people internally and make him weaken himself.Fortunately, this son, Jingling, is also deeply feared by the Marquis of Jin and the princes of Jin because he is too powerful.So they brought the daughter and the stunning virgin, and the prince Yingyan personally brought the second sister to come, intending to marry the eldest sister to the Marquis of Jin and the younger sister to the Prince Jin, and discuss how to deal with the son Jingling together.

Ying Yan thought that he had done it very secretly, so he should not be alerted by Mr. Jingling.Even if he was aware of it, it wouldn't be so fast.How long have you been in Jin?This young master Jingling noticed it. Not only did he notice it, but he also knew the details clearly. What's more, his reaction was so direct, so undisguised, and so careless!

Suddenly, Ying Yan understood why the son Jingling killed Princess Jiang last night. It turned out that after he knew about this, he was ready to confront his father openly!Killing He Jiang is really a demonstration!
At this time, Young Master Jingling turned his head and stared at Ying Yan with a half-smile. He shook the empty wine cup in his hand at Ying Yan, raised his left eyebrow slightly, and smiled very gracefully and gently, "What does Prince Yan think?"

Ying Yan regained his smile in a moment. He raised his head to look at Mr. Jingling, and said with a smile: "Who is Shun in the past? Sitting in the world, his younger brother is obstinate and his mother is poisonous, so he is also willing to be virtuous. If you are not talented, I don't know what your son is meaning."

Ying Yan's answer was completely wrong.But everyone here understands that Qin Crown Prince Yan is telling his son Jingling that a sage like Shun can only use virtue to influence them even if he faces his brother who is as stubborn as a rock and his stepmother who is vicious.Even if you Jingling has a strong army in your hands, even if you know that I will unite with your father and brother to deal with you.But what can you do?Don't you dare to be unfilial and immoral?

As soon as Yingyan's voice fell, Mr. Jingling suddenly raised his head and burst out laughing.

His laughter was very loud, and it was heard far away on the empty island. His laughter was also very arrogant, very arrogant.

As soon as the laughter started, it stopped abruptly.Young Master Jingling stared at Yingyan coldly, slowly held the pot, and poured wine for himself. When the yellow and turbid wine was gurgling into the pour, he said lightly: "Shun? What does it have to do with Shun? I think the land of Qin is fertile and vast. , very agreeable."

His voice was very light and peaceful, but as soon as he said this, all the Qin people all changed their expressions in unison.Young Master Qin Ying Yan stood up even more, put his hands on his hands, glared at Young Master Jingling, and shouted anxiously: "How dare you?"

Ying Yan's voice was a bit anxious and confused. The matter of coming to Jin this time is very important. He thinks that he has done a good job in secret work, and he also thinks that his son Jingling has only recently worn the crown and is still young, so he can be deceived.Neither he nor his patrons, his father and ministers, would have thought that Prince Jingling would directly declare war!

He actually declared war directly!
He actually didn't intend to inform the Marquis of Jin at all, and he didn't care what the officials of the Jin State said, and declared war directly on his own will!
Could it be that there is no one in the entire Jin country who can hold him back?People can't tie him down, and neither can the morality of speech.
This man is so bold!
After Ying Yan was furious, suddenly, a kind of fear struck!Young Master Jingling really doesn't take Jinhou seriously, and doesn't take his brothers seriously!He can do whatever he wants!

If they really fought together, wouldn't he, Prince Qin who fell into his hands, become a hostage?The battle between Qin and Jin started because of this, wouldn't the father think that he was incompetent?

All kinds of uneasiness, all kinds of worries, rushed out of his heart.

Thinking about it, Ying Yan's face was already white as paper, and his hands on the table began to tremble.

Unknowingly, the swordsmen of Qin approached their crown prince one after another, hugged him, and protected him.The swordsmen held the hilts of their swords and looked around. They had already assumed the posture of drawing their swords and attacking if they disagreed with each other.

Even before the performances of the singing and dancing girls started, the banquet was already full of tension!

Mr. Jingling didn't seem to notice all this, he still smiled gracefully.Bai Jing's slender hand caressed several green bottles, without raising his eyes, he said amusedly: "Why can't the prince stand still? Could it be that Meiji's enthusiasm last night made the prince's legs weak?"

No one listened to his teasing, and all Qin people were still staring at him.

Young Master Jingling took a sip from the cup, took the handkerchief handed over by the maidservant and wiped the corners of his mouth lightly. Then, he put down the cup without raising his head, and said flatly, "It's just a joke. The prince is too worried. Qin Jinxiang Neighbors, it is a blessing for the two countries to be able to marry each other forever. Jingling is extremely happy on behalf of the father and prince."

He said joy in his mouth, but there was no joy on his face.

However, Ying Yan has breathed a sigh of relief, what he fears most is becoming the hostage of Mr. Jingling, and now that he says that, it means exposing the matter.

Ying Yan supported him, and sat down slowly. At this moment, his thoughts were ups and downs: As soon as I leave Jingling Mansion, I will return to China immediately, and return to China as quickly as possible!As for the discussion with the Marquis of Jin and Prince Jin, this is just the beginning, and there is no conclusion yet!There is no need to think about it anymore—Jing Ling, the son of the party, already knows everything, so what else is there to discuss?
As for the two sisters, since they have already been brought, let's leave them in the state of Jin for a while, and the marriage will be discussed at a later date.

After sitting down again, Ying Yan waved his hand to make the swordsmen retreat.

At this banquet, by this time, everyone was in a state of ecstasy.Young Master Jingling didn't care either, he sat at the first place, drank wine gracefully, and waved his hand to start the dance and music.

The dancers danced numbly. Although the music was loud, there was no laughter or voice in the banquet, and it was eerily quiet.

I don't know what Young Master Jingling was thinking, but he just kept the banquet with no one drinking until late at night.When he finally waved his hand and said that the banquet was over, the robes of all the Qin people were sweaty and dry, dry and sweaty.

And when they left, their footsteps were even more hasty and anxious, how could they still have the calm demeanor they had when they first arrived?
