Chapter 273 Zong Yuan wiped his cold sweat secretly, what is the use of himself, in case Tang Yin encounters any danger outside, he can't help at all.
Seeing that Tang Yin had already gone outside, Zong Yuan didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly followed.
The two of them left the county capital, led by Zongyuan, and walked straight to the west of the city.
Tang Yin and Zong Yuan were only dressed in simple casual clothes, and there was no retinue around them, if they looked at them from their appearances alone, no one would believe that one of these two people was the head of the three counties, and the other was the chief strategist under his command.
While leading the way, Zong Yuan also looked at Tang Yin, seeing that he was in good spirits, he swept away the tired look that had come from time to time, and couldn't help but say curiously: "Today, the adults look in good spirits."
"En" Tang Yin nodded and said, "I had a good night's sleep today." ” Zong Yuan also knew about his visit to Wuyu in the Dance Mansion, and secretly guessed in his heart that Tang Yin was sleeping in the Dance Mansion He didn't ask directly, but asked in a crooked manner: "What is the result of the adult visiting the Dance Master today?"
Tang Yin smiled and said, "After eliminating Zhong Tian, the dance minister intends to promote me as the king, and the condition is that I want to restore the status and strength of the dancer, Master Zong, what do you mean" As he spoke, he looked at Zong Yuan without blinking, and also wanted to test his reaction to his desire for the throne.
Hearing this, Zong Yuan gasped, but soon he calmed down again, hurriedly stood up, and arched his hand and said: "If you can successfully eliminate Zhong Tian, there is no doubt that the Lord will have the greatest credit, and the entire Wind King clan was harmed by Zhong Tian, no one can inherit the orthodoxy, and it is only natural that the throne will be seated by the Adult."
Entang Yin nodded secretly, regardless of whether Zong Yuan's words were sincere or false, at least on the surface, he supported himself as king, and did not stand up against it.
Seeing that Tang Yin's gaze softened, Zong Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "However, although the Lord can get the support of Lord Wu, it is not easy to get the support of Lord Liang and General Ziyang, besides" Speaking of this, he paused and did not continue.
Tang Yin raised his head and said, "What else?"
"Oh, besides, if you want to be king, although it is a natural thing, but there is still one less name, it will inevitably fall into the mouth of others," Zong Yuan cautiously reminded.
"Oh, name," Tang Yin didn't quite understand what Zong Yuan meant.
Zong Yuan said: "The king of a country is not self-proclaimed, but needs to be recognized by the imperial court, is to get the emperor's gift, now Zhong Tian, the king is not right, his words are not good, and no one in the wind country respects him as the king, this is a lesson from the past, adults can not repeat the mistakes of the past, take Zhong Tian's old way."
"Ah" Tang Yin heard this, suddenly nodded again and again, his eyes rolled, he thought for a moment, and said: "What do you mean is that while wooing the three families of Wu, Liang, and Ziyang, you should also curry favor with the imperial court and let the emperor crown me king."
"Yes, my lord" Zong Yuan said: "Although the imperial court is in decline and no longer has real power, but the prestige is still there, with the recognition of the imperial court, then the people and kings of the world will also recognize the adult, even if the Liang and Ziyang families do not support the adult, it is not important, therefore, the adult should make arrangements as soon as possible, and it is also very necessary to send people to Beijing to bring heavy money to the ministers of the imperial court." ” Tang Yin secretly said yes, if he could, he should go to Beijing in person.
Thinking of this, his heart twitched, and he suddenly remembered a person, the woman who was imprinted on his soul, the crystal, or Yin Rou.
I don't know how she's doing in Beijing Seeing Tang Yin's eyes in a daze, Zong Yuan smiled and said, "Of course, this kind of thing can't be rushed, and adults don't need to be distracted by this matter now." ” Tang Yin came back to his senses and muttered slowly: "If I can spare time in the future, I must go to Beijing."
As he spoke, he looked at Zong Yuan again, and praised in his heart, Zong Yuan is a shrewd, thoughtful, and thoughtful person, he is really a rare talent.
He said with a smile: "What Master Zong said is reasonable, thank you for your advice."
Zong Yuan was startled, Tang Yin is the master, he is from him, how can there be a reason for the lord to thank him for his subordination, he felt that his words were a little too much, and he hurriedly bowed down and said: "My lord kills his subordinates" Tang Yin was amused by his overreaction, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "In private, you don't have to be so polite to go, you and I go to the casino to relax."
"Yes, yes, please," Zong Yuan sighed.
Tang Yin's changes were sometimes incomprehensible to Zong Yuan, which also made him more cautious in front of Tang Yin.
On the way, Tang Yin asked Zong Yuan whether he wanted to give the dancer military power in the future, and Zong Yuan was resolutely opposed to this, his opinion was that the military power of the whole country, especially the military power of the central government, must not fall into the hands of the major magnates, but should be concentrated in the hands of the king alone, and only in this way can the country be stable, and there will be no more Zhong Tian raising troops to rebel and kill the king.
Although this was just a casual conversation in private, Tang Yin could keep Zong Yuan's words firmly in his heart, and he didn't want Zhanhua's experience to happen to him.
The casino that Zong Yuan took Tang Yin to was not small, with red lanterns hanging outside, and two floors inside, even if it was late at night, there were many gamblers gathered inside.
At that time, the attitude of the vassal states towards the casino was different, some vassal states banned gambling, some vassal states did not, and the wind country belonged to the latter, and the opening of casinos was also legal.
There are a lot of tricks in the casino, anything can be used to gamble, and even grab a handful of soybeans and put them on the gambling table to guess the odd and even, among which the most people who bet on the size of the dice press, Tang Yin is here to join in the fun, where there are many people, where to go, soon, he also joined the gambling game of pressing the size.
Tang Yin didn't have any scattered broken silver on his body, but fortunately, there was a lot of silver in Zongyuan's silver bag, and he used it as gambling money by the way.
Zong Yuan's luck was good, and the silver won a bag, but Tang Yin did not inherit his good luck, and pressed several times in a row, but did not win a game.
Tang Yin peeked at Zong Yuan beside him, the latter seemed to be fine, and didn't seem to care whether his silver would be lost by Tang Yin at all, this surname was very admirable, but from another aspect, it was not difficult to see that Zong Yuan did not value money as much as he appeared.
Tang Yin didn't break it out on his lips, he already knew in his heart that this Zong Yuan's mind might be more shrewd than Qiu Zhen.
Tang Yin is now the head of the three counties, and the financial power of the three counties is controlled by him alone, so the amount of money can be imagined, but in the gambling game, he is cautious, and the silver taels pressed each time are not much, compared with the surrounding high-rollers who bet on dozens of hundreds of taels of silver at every turn, it is far from the difference.
When Tang Yin was enjoying it, there was a sudden confusion in the casino, Tang Yin didn't understand what was going on, looked around, and saw that the gamblers around him were no longer gambling, and they all looked at the gate of the casino.
Tang Yin followed everyone's gaze and looked over, only to see that a group of people walked in from outside the casino, led by a man in his early thirties, dressed in simple and casual, with a rough appearance, thick eyebrows and eyes, and a face full of stubble.
Tang Yin and Zong Yuan didn't know what the identity of this person was, why did he cause a sensation in the casino, Zong Yuan asked a gambler next to him: "Brother, who is this person?"
"You don't even know him," the gambler stared at Zong Yuan with wide eyes as if he had seen a monster.
"Hehe" Zong Yuan smiled, glanced at Tang Yin, and said to the gambler: "I came from other places, and I just arrived in your place, so I don't know much about the local situation."
"Oh no wonder" The gambler is also a talkative person, and explained to Zong Yuan: "Actually, I don't know his name, but I have seen him several times, he is very generous, either he doesn't come, he wants to come and gamble a lot, and he gambles once, no more and no less, just one thousand taels of silver, and if he loses, he will leave immediately, if he wins, he will not want to, all of them will be thrown to the people in the casino, and whoever picks it will be who's" "Oh" Hearing this, Tang Yin and Zong Yuan looked at each other, they were a little surprised, there are still such bold people in the world, but what does he do, how can he be so rich and throw a thousand taels of silver every time he goes to the casino, it seems that everyone knows him, obviously a frequent customer, so how much silver does he have to throw away, even if the family has a lot of money, he has to throw it away After listening to the gambler's story, Tang Yin and Zong Yuan became more and more curious about him.
The big man walked through the crowd of the casino, walked directly to the table of the gambling man, reached into his arms, took out a silver ticket from it, slapped it on the table, and didn't look at the people around him, just glanced at the table twice, then bet the silver ticket to the small, and said: "One thousand taels, small" The dealer who shook the dice seemed to be very familiar with this big man, smiled knowingly, nodded, and then looked at the other people, and said: "Charge, charge, bet to buy and leave" The gamblers shook their heads, and at this time, no one was willing to place a bet, and they were all waiting for the result of the big man to see if he won or lost.
Seeing that no one bet, the dealer shouted: "Open" He picked up the color cup, and everyone at the gambling table looked at it, and saw that the three dice were two six and one five, and the dealer looked at it, grinned and shouted: "Five, six, six, big" "Wow" With the shouts of the dealer, there was a disappointment in the surrounding crowd, if the big man can win, even the interest is two thousand taels, and everyone present can get a lot One thousand taels of silver was lost to others in an instant, and the big man didn't even blink his eyes, nor did he look at it more, he turned around and walked out.
The servants who had come with him followed him out of the casino.
Tang Yin was very curious about the identity of this person, and chased him out quickly, looked at the back of the Han and his party, and said with a smile: "Brother, please stay."
Hearing this, the big man stood still, looked back at Tang Yin in confusion, looked at him twice, frowned, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Your Excellency":
