East Side, Qin Lianfu
It was as if all was dead silent. Thinking back to twenty years ago, it was at this time that the Qin Family lost all of its sons, leaving behind only the grandsons and wives that were a few years old.
Therefore, this matter was one of the most depressing ones for Qin Mansion, and even the New Year Qin Mansion had never been used before. No one dared to bring up the matters from twenty years ago, after all, not only did the ones that died twenty years ago were Qin Family's sons, there was also a daughter-in-law and a grandson of a few years old.
But today, the Qin Family had received an unexpected guest, causing Qin Tiannuo, who was flipping through the pages of government affairs, to be slightly startled. After putting down the paper in his hands, his brows slightly furrowed as if he was pondering for a moment, and then he opened his mouth and said: "Let him in."
After a while, the servant brought a person in, and saw that person with a purple robe, a jade pendant on his waist had a Mang Claw imprint, his long eyes glanced at the person before him, and with a light snort, he sat down, and said: "I have never thought about who I want to meet, and would like to report to you?"
However, Qin Tiannuo seemed to not care in the slightest, and only said with a light smile: "My lord, please excuse me, if anyone were to let them into the Qin Mansion, wouldn't there be no rules then? Just like when a prince entered the imperial palace, could it be that he directly charged in? "
The person who came was the Fifth Prince Tuoba Yanlei of the Northern Desert, and Qin Tiannuo had also said so intentionally. Back then, Tuoba Yanlei was young and overbearing, and because of the punishment given to him by the Emperor of the Northern Desert, he had directly barged into the Emperor of the Northern Desert's chambers and lost his favour. He did not even bring any soldiers for, and that was how he acted as a lazy prince!
This was also the pain that Tuoba Yanlei felt. Hearing Qin Tiannuo mock him like this, the rage in his heart burned but it was not good to flare up, and he only glanced at the faintly smiling Qin Tiannuo indifferently, and said coldly: "Don't forget Qin Xiang's reminder, this king naturally understands!"
If he didn't have something to ask for, he wouldn't have been so patient! This was an extraordinary shame and humiliation to him!
Qin Tiannuo acted as if he did not know anything, he chuckled and said: "I wonder why Your Highness suddenly came to East Side today? Didn't Your Highness already return to the Northern Desert a few days ago? "
As he spoke, he picked up the cup of tea in front of him and took a sip. Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Tuoba Yanlei, and saw that he seemed to have become slightly stiff. He sneered in his heart and put down the cup in his hand.
Tuoba Yanlei was originally a proud and arrogant person, thus, he would naturally not say such words. Moreover, he had never placed Qin Tiannuo in his eyes before, so naturally, he was unwilling to do so. After hesitating for a while, he finally said coldly: "Prime Minister Qin, we should also keep silent! It is impossible for you to not know about the famine and starvation that struck Northern Desert this time? "
"The Prince is talking about this?" Tiannuo had heard of it, but he did not expect that the Emperor of Northern Desert would actually send the Duke himself, which surprised him greatly! But I heard that the Emperor of Northern Desert has already sent people to the Jingluo, right? Could it be that Your Highness has deliberately deceived East Side to borrow food from the East Side? "
This was not even the case for Qin Tiannuo himself. This time, the matter of the Northern Desert sending messengers to borrow food was known by many countries, but they did not know who they were sending, which was a headache for them, but they did not expect Tuoba Yanlei to suddenly appear in the East Side, which was strange! Then, the people who went to borrow food from the Jingluo were self-evident.
"Heh …" That old fellow Royal Father knew nothing and sent Tuoba Yanlia to borrow food from Jingluo. The common people did not know that the Jingluo Emperor had spoken of treachery. If they were to borrow food, they would most likely demand more! Since that's the case, this duke will personally come to the East Side to borrow food, and at that time, let Royal Father take a look to see which son of his has the ability! "
Tuoba Yanlia and Tuoba Yanlei's grudge did not stop at just one or two days, they were both fighting for power, so after hearing Tuoba Yanlei's words, they probably understood that Tuoba Yanlei was in a rush, wanting to borrow some food to slap Tuoba Yanlia in the face!
Secondly, in order to regain the trust of the Northern Desert Emperor, he had to regain power!
He silently knocked on the table as if he was thinking about something, and after a long while, he slowly spoke out: "Since that's the case, Tiannuo thinks that since the Prince has mentioned the matter of borrowing the ingredients, he should look for the Emperor, not me. I'm just a mere prime minister, I'm not qualified to borrow the ingredients."
Although Qin Tiannuo already had a plan in mind, but he had never been a generous person. If he wanted to do something, he would need to show the word "begging", just like Tuoba Yanlei, who had a haughty attitude and did not want to bother with it.
Although the Jingluo would most likely take over the matter of borrowing food, if the East Side was the first to borrow food, then naturally, the Jingluo would not dare to borrow food. If anyone dared to act rashly, that would be the fate of all the countries which had fallen, so it was likely that the first person to fall would be the Northern Desert!
He didn't know if he should say that Tuoba Yanlei was stupid or naive to actually dare to find East Side to borrow food, instead of following the arrangements of the old Emperor Northern Desert.
"Why do you need to lie to this king? This king knows that although Qin Family have not been popular with East Side for the past few days, the power and authority of the Qin Family still exists, and even the emperor would revere them a little. The matter of borrowing food is only good if Qin Si mentioned it a little.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Tuoba Yanlei simply gave Qin Tiannuo enough face. His tone was not as unyielding as before, and more or less, eased up a bit.
"Qin Mansion only wants to be obedient now, I hope that Your Highness will think about it many times. Qin Hai. " Qin Tiannuo did not think too much into it and rejected it straightforwardly. He did not look at Tuoba Yanlei at all.
If you want to infiltrate the enemy's camp, you need to advance carefully, step by step, and be anxious about it, you cannot whet the other party's appetite, but to deal with someone like Tuoba Yanlei, you need to take it slow, and must never eat it in one go!
Even if it was a soft and pliable puppy, it would still bite when anxious! Moreover, it was a tiger with sharp teeth. If he didn't take it step by step, how could he let it ally with him?
Tuoba Yanlei saw that he could not get any benefits out of it, but was not willing to give up, and said: "Since that is the case, then this king will come again to visit Qin Zheng, I hope that he can reconsider!"
With that, he left.
