Chapter 1490: Little brother, are you going to usurp the throne?



Chapter 1490: Little brother, are you going to usurp the throne?

In fact, Tang Bao also knows that the little brother has always been like this.

It's just that she felt sad after leaving her parents for the first time, so she wanted to find someone to vent her feelings.

The young man bumped into her and was drafted into the army.

Xuanyuan Jin looked at the aggrieved yet stubborn little girl, and his heart softened like dough.

"Yes, it's all my brother's fault." The Crown Prince coaxed humbly, "Don't be angry with my brother, okay?"

"No." Tang Bao said with red eyes: "I'm angry and I won't pay attention to you."

However, these words were spoken in a soft voice and were not convincing at all.

Xuanyuan Jin: "..."

I don’t know how, but my heart went from being a dough to being as soft as a pool of water.

The little girl's aggrieved and coquettish look was so destructive.

"Brother apologizes to you, okay?"

"not good."

Xuanyuan Jin: "..."

Suddenly I was at a loss.

"How about...brother send you back?" Xuanyuan Jin thought for a moment and said, "brother will ask the emperor for permission to revoke your order and not let you go on the diplomatic mission to Western Qin, okay?"

The little girl is still young, so it is understandable that she is reluctant to leave home and her parents.

Tang Bao: “…”

Of course it’s even worse!

She has already promised Princess Mingli, how can she go back on her word?

“Ahem!”

Suddenly, two dry coughs were heard outside the car window.

"Old Zhao, do you know how I coaxed Yu'er back when she was angry with me and ignored me?"

Zhang Cheng's voice came in.

"How did you coax him into doing that? Tell me! Let me learn from you."

Zhao Wu's anxious voice also came in.

Xuanyuan Jin: "..."

His face darkened, but——

He did not scold his two subordinates.

"I went to the silver shop and bought Yu'er an exquisite hairpin, and then went to the pastry shop and bought two boxes of her favorite pastries..."

"Since you have nothing to do, go to the front and prepare a place to stay. Don't come back if you can't do it well!" Xuanyuan Jin said coldly.

Zhang Cheng: "...Yes, Master!"

Kill the donkey after it has done its job!

Zhao Wu: "...Yes, Master."

Demolish the bridge after crossing it!

Zhang Cheng and Zhao Wu exchanged a knowing look and rode their horses forward.

Inside the carriage.

"I heard that the headdresses made by the craftsmen in Xiqin are very unique. When we get to Xiqin, I'll buy some for you, okay?"

Tang Bao: “…”

The corners of his mouth twitched.

Learn and apply it flexibly.

"Okay." Tang Bao sniffed and said generously.

Xuanyuan Jin's expression relaxed.

It seems that we can consider increasing Zhang Cheng's salary.

"Brother, this is for you."

As Tang Bao spoke, she took out the tiger talisman given to her by her sixth sister-in-law and gave it to Xuanyuan Jin.

As soon as Xuanyuan Jin took one look at the box, he guessed what it was.

"Your sixth sister-in-law gave it to you."

Xuanyuan Jin used an affirmative tone.

"Yeah." Tang Bao guessed, "King Xiaoyao should know too."

After all, King Xiaoyao is still living in the Marquis' Mansion.

It was clear from the look that he had no intention of leaving.

"Brother, King Xiaoyao is a prince. If he leaves his fiefdom without permission and stays away for a long time, won't the Emperor blame him?" Tang Bao asked curiously.

It has been a custom since ancient times that local princes are not allowed to leave their territories without permission.

"Prince Xiaoyao has been stationed in the bitter cold of the frontier for many years. He is incorruptible and has made great contributions. His father has graciously allowed him to travel extensively and see the Great Yan empire he has protected for so many years."

"Oh, I see."

Tang Bao said she understood.

Then, he looked at the box in Xuanyuan Jin's hand.

"Brother, why do other princes not have tiger talismans? Why does Prince Xiaoyao have one? And why can he give it to others at will?"

This is something Tangbao is very curious about.

Can something like a tiger talisman be given to others casually?

After listening to Tang Bao's words, Xuanyuan Jin opened the box and took out a military token with a tiger head carved on it.

"This tiger talisman was personally bestowed by the founding emperor of Dayan to the first generation of King Xiaoyao." Xuanyuan Jin said in a low voice while playing with the handle of the tiger talisman.

"Oh, so the first King Xiaoyao must have been Taizu's sworn brother. He and Taizu conquered the Great Yan together, then ceded the throne to Taizu. He led his troops to guard a border for Great Yan, ensuring its peace and prosperity. In gratitude for his friendship, Taizu granted him a decree..."

As Tang Bao spoke, Xuanyuan Jin's mouth twitched.

"Is this your guess, or did you hear it from your sixth sister-in-law?" Xuanyuan Jin asked.

Tang Bao had a strange expression on her face and said, "Of course I guessed! You've already given me the beginning. The following routine is so familiar, do I need someone to tell me?"

Xuanyuan Jin: "..."

Well, he was speechless.

Tang Bao took out a white jade token from her small bag.

"Brother, what's the use of this Tianlong Order?" Tang Bao asked.

Master Zhiyuan gave her the token but did not tell her what it was used for.

Moreover, he gave it with an expression of pain in his heart.

For this reason, Tang Bao didn't feel comfortable asking further questions, so as not to rub salt into the other person's heart.

"All monks in the world who see this token must obey its orders!" Xuanyuan Jin said.

And this is just one of them.

Tang Bao: “…”

So I am the chief monk.

"Brother, I'll give it to you."

Tang Bao said as she stuffed the token into the little brother's hand.

Anyway, this token is bearer.

Tang Bao took out a jade ring from her small bag.

Xuanyuan Jin's pupils shrank.

Even without sunlight shining in, Xuanyuan Jin recognized the jade quality of the jade ring.

This is clearly the kind of rare and beautiful jade used to carve jade seals and phoenix seals!

"This is..." Xuanyuan Jin said in surprise.

"This is what my mother gave me." Tang Bao said thoughtfully, "It should be related to my grandmother's family. My grandmother passed away early, and my mother doesn't know the reason."

"Since you don't know, then keep it away and don't let anyone see it." Xuanyuan Jin warned: "This jade is of extraordinary quality. This jade ring must have a great history."

As Xuanyuan Jin spoke, he recalled the dowries that Duke Yingguo had sent to the Su family, as well as some things he discovered later when he checked the files.

Not to mention anything else, when Tang Bao's grandmother married into the Lin family, her dowry of ten miles of red makeup caused a sensation in the entire capital.

Moreover, many items in the dowry cannot be bought with money.

After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he returned the Tianlong Order and the Tiger Talisman to Tang Bao.

"Just keep these for yourself." Xuanyuan Jin said, "If I need anything, I will naturally take it from you."

Tang Bao thought about it and decided that this was a good idea, as it would be safer keeping it with her.

At least you don't have to worry about it being stolen.

Tang Bao was thinking this when Xuanyuan Jin took out a red cloth bag from his arms and handed it to her.

"You should keep this thing too."

"What's this?"

Tang Bao said this, and curiously opened the red cloth bag, revealing the contents.

Tang Bao: “…”

Oh my god! The imperial seal!

Tang Bao suddenly looked up and looked at the little brother.

Little brother, are you going to usurp the throne?
