Chapter 495 Obvious Hint

Chapter 495 Obvious Hint

The prince of this southern vassal state directly praised Bai Jingyi all over, and finally he held the piece of colored glaze in both hands, and said respectfully to Bai Jingyi: "Such a small piece of colored glaze is not worthy of the King of Beiliang at all." teenage hero!"

"When I return to my mansion in the future, I will definitely send someone to send a generous gift as a token of congratulations!"

Normally, they all call themselves the king, but in front of Bai Jingyi, they can only humble themselves, after all, they are not just inferior in status.

At the same time, at this moment their wealth and life are all in the hands of Bai Jingyi, no matter how tyrannical they are in the outside world, at this moment they must be begging for mercy like a dog.

Bai Jingyi was a little surprised, he didn't expect that someone would confess his love, and even bribed himself in front of other princes.

When seeing this scene, the corners of Bai Jingyi's mouth slightly raised, because this was exactly what he expected.

These people have suffered a loss from themselves, and they will inevitably find it from other places, and at the same time, it will further stimulate their ambitions.

Obviously, if someone gave Bai Jingyi a gift, then the princes of the other southern vassal states would not be far behind, and they also took out their valuables one after another.

These things are either able to represent status, or are priceless, ordinary items, and it is impossible for them to take them out.

Looking at the dazzling array of generous gifts on the table, Bai Jingyi could only deliberately control his complexion and calm down a little.

After all, you don't reach out to hit smiling people, not to mention that these people still bribe yourself, and you will need to use them in the future, so you can't make it too stiff.

"The king of Beiliang is indeed my young hero of the Tang Dynasty. Such a gift is a bit frivolous, and I will make it up in the future!"

"After we go back, we must prepare a generous gift and send it to the White Mansion in a few days to express our congratulations!"

"The King of Beiliang sacrificed his life to protect our Tang territory from being invaded by foreign barbarians. We should congratulate the King of Beiliang!"

I don't know when it started, everyone started to compliment Bai Jingyi, and they all threatened to send generous gifts.

But in the face of all this, Bai Jingyi was unmoved, because he knew in his heart that the reason why these people in front of him would say this was just to get away as soon as possible.

And it is very likely that after leaving the White House, they will forget all the words they said before, and even give some souvenirs as a generous gift.

If this is the case, then my goal has not been achieved, and it will not cause chaos among the princes of these southern vassal states.

They must be made clear about the situation in front of them, otherwise, the plan cannot be carried out at all.

But Bai Jingyi didn't say anything to stop them from continuing to compliment, but instead watched them quietly, and in the next yard, Zhou Tongming's screams could be heard from time to time.

For a moment, the two courtyards formed a stark contrast. All the princes of the southern vassal states did not speak when they saw Bai Jingyi, and they couldn't guess what was going on in his mind.

So these people present silently shut their mouths, for fear that if they talked too much, they would be annoyed by Bai Jingyi instead.

Seeing that they were all silent, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said: "Those who assassinated Her Highness the Eldest Princess are so daring! But these people have already turned into corpses!"

"There are only a bunch of cold weapons left!"

After hearing this, all the southern vassal kings present subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as those people are all dead, they will not blew up their family, let alone reveal any clues about them.

They thought so in their hearts, but they never heard the screams from the yard next door, which was from Zhou Tongming. Although they felt familiar, they definitely would not think about it in that direction.

Because in their hearts they all thought that Bai Jingyi was a hot-blooded young man, so they killed all the assassins, leaving no one alive, so they had a reason to excuse themselves.

Seeing their relaxed expressions, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said: "But I still caught a leader! This person seems to know a lot! It's just that he is too stubborn and refuses to say anything!"

All of a sudden, the proud expressions of the princes of the southern feudal clans all froze on their faces.

It was only at this time that they realized that the screams in the yard next door seemed to be Zhou Tongming's screams. After all, this voice was familiar at the beginning, but now that they thought about it, a person's face unconsciously appeared in their minds.

Now they could no longer be calm, and they didn't dare to speak at all, for fear that if they said something wrong, they would be suspected by Bai Jingyi instead.

Bai Jingyi glanced at the ornaments on the table calmly, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "A few pieces of jade, or a few indistinct colored glazes, just want to send me away!?"

"If it weren't for the imminent war, how could this king have taken a fancy to these crude things like you!"

Glazed agate may be a symbol of dignity in this era, and if it is sold, it must be priceless.

But in Bai Jingyi's view, these things are useless, it's better to send two carts of food, or two carts of armor.

So he said indifferently: "A gentleman does not take away people's love! Since you think these things are priceless, then keep them well! To avoid unnecessary misunderstanding!"

"Ah!? This..."

The princes of the southern vassal states were instantly speechless.

From their point of view, these things were valuable enough, but Beiliang didn't take a fancy to them at all.

Could it be that the King of Beiliang has a bigger appetite?
Then, Bai Jingyi continued: "Since I became king, I will never accept other people's gifts for no reason!"

"What's more, these things are so valuable, how could this king accept them?"

Hearing such an obvious hint, how could the princes present not understand?Sure enough, it was because these gifts were not acceptable to the King of Beiliang.

But now, there are all the witnesses and material evidence. Although the assassins in Chang'an City have no direct relationship with them, once the Holy One gets angry, they will definitely be implicated.

So now the only one who can protect himself is the King of Beiliang in front of him.

They could only bow to Bai Jingyi and ask, "Perhaps this gift is too frivolous to get into the eyes of the King of Beiliang. I don't know what the King of Beiliang wants, so please let me know!"

Listening to these people's questioning, Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said, "Nowadays the Grand Canal has not been repaired, and it is difficult for the north and the south to do business!"

"Besides, this king hastened to hear that the south is rich in grain, which is much more than that in the north!"

All the lords of the southern vassal states suddenly came to their senses, and at the same time, their minds were spinning rapidly, thinking how to please Bai Jingyi...
