Tang Yin snickered in his heart, and asked: "Master Qiu, what do you think?"

Qiu Zhen turned his head to look at Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun, and said, "To suppress Old Thief Zhong Tian, the power of Lord County Magistrate alone is far from enough. We still need the help of Prime Minister Liang, Prime Minister Wu, and Great General Ziyang!"

"Oh? How can I help you? "

"Now, although Zhong Tian controls the three masters' regiment, I believe that the majority of the soldiers in the regiment are still loyal to the three lords. As long as the three lords summon their Tianyuan County, many of the soldiers will probably abandon Zhong Tian and come forth to join them. At that time, our military will greatly increase, and Zhong Tian's strength will drop, so it will only be a matter of time before we expel the Ning army, eliminate Zhong Tian, seize back the capital, and restore our Feng Country." Qiu Zhen said with a serious expression.

What he wanted to say was exactly what Tang Yin wanted to say, but it was more appropriate for him to say it than Tang Yin.

After listening to his words, Liang Xing, Wu Yu and the rest all took a deep breath, bowed their heads in thought, and remained silent. After a while, Ziyang Haochun said with a bitter smile: "The three of us are no longer the same people now, and whether or not our original subordinates will continue to be loyal to us, is truly an ambiguous matter."

"Why not give it a try?" Qiu Zhen said: "If someone comes to vote, it's naturally for the best. If no one comes, we won't lose anything."

The three old men looked at each other and nodded, thinking that Qiu Zhen's words were reasonable.

Wu Yu was the first to agree: "Alright, let's hear about this Master Qiu. I'll first write a letter to my old subordinates, but sending it to Yan City is a bit difficult."

Qiu Zhen laughed and said: "Prime Minister Wu, don't worry about this. We have always had spies at the Yan City, and big things may not be done well, but passing a letter is definitely not a problem."

"Yes!" Wu Yu nodded and replied.

Hearing him say that, Liang Xing and Ziyang Haochun also expressed their wishes, and were willing to send letters to their families, urging them to go to Tianyuan County. Receiving their approval, Qiu Zhen was very happy, he sneaked a glance at Tang Yin, who was sitting on a chair and not moving, but his eyes were flowing with light.

It was obvious that Tang Yin was very satisfied with his advice. After a moment, Qiu Zhen continued, "Zhong Tian usurped the throne, and the citizens of the entire country all hated him. It's just that he was lacking a leader, so people didn't dare to say anything because they were angry.

His words brought the three of them to their limits, and they even faintly respected them as their masters. This naturally greatly pleased the three old men.

But they were not stupid, right now the one in charge of Tianyuan County was Tang Yin, and Qiu Zhen was only a deputy, so his words might not be able to represent Tang Yin's intentions.

The three of them turned their heads together and looked at Tang Yin, who was sitting upright on a chair and not saying a word.

If it was said that Tang Yin was very happy just now, then he had turned from joy to anger. He had risked his life to save the three families of Liang Xing, Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun, because he wanted them to increase his army and weaken Zhong Tian's strength. He did not want these three people to replace him. Qiu Zhen's words, were clearly asking these three people to be their bosses, then what should he do? He had actually spent so much effort for someone else! If it was someone else speaking like that, Tang Yin would have turned hostile on the spot, but since it was Qiu Zhen who said that, it was a completely different story. Tang Yin's loyalty to him, Tang Yin trusted him 100%, and he understood 100% about how ambitious Qiu Zhen was. With Qiu Zhen's personality, he would never tell others that he was willing to give up his authority, so if he said that, then there must be a secret that he couldn't reveal.

Tang Yin was still smiling. After being stunned for a moment, he said with a smile: "What Master Qiu said is extremely true, and his words, are exactly what I wanted to say."

After hearing these words, Qiu Zhen's eyes lit up. At the same time, he could not help but sigh inwardly, how much trust did Tang Yin have in himself to be able to say such words! Perhaps, in the entire world, only Tang Yin could trust him so. How could such a person not wholeheartedly try to support him?

The relationship between the two of them had gradually improved based on their increasing trust in each other.

Tang Yin's words caused Liang Xing, Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun to be at ease. The three old men laughed happily and their faces lit up as they said: "We will draw up the draft for you tomorrow!"

Qiu Zhen stood up and cupped his hands, and laughed: "The little one is waiting quietly for my good news!"

Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun could be said to be completely satisfied. Before, they were rich and influential in their Imperial Court, but now they were still leaders of Feng Country, and when they returned to the capital, and killed Old Thief Zhong Tian, they would be the first people who contributed greatly to saving his life. As for the Zhan Clan, they had already been annihilated by Zhong Tian and had lost their Feng Country, so it was natural that the new Feng King should be selected from the three of them. If she wanted to defeat the other two competitors, she would first have to outdo them in meritorious service. By this time, the three of them had already begun to think about how they could win the hearts and minds of the people.

Right now, they had just gotten out of danger and had already begun scheming against each other. This could also be considered the base of the aristocratic tradition.

After the meeting was over, Tang Yin asked people to prepare a feast to entertain Liang Xing, Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun. After everyone had left, only Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen remained. The two of them stayed behind with a tacit understanding.

Only the two of them were left in the tent, Qiu Zhen looked at Tang Yin and grinned. The latter no longer had a smiling appearance. He frowned and asked: "You still dare to laugh? My County Head is almost sold by you! "

"Ha ha — —" Qiu Zhen laughed out loud, and said: "Master, what do you think the army relies on?"

Tang Yin didn't understand what he meant and asked: "Relying on what?"

"Military assets, military equipment, food, military pay!"

Qiu Zhen restrained his smile and said sternly: "Liang Xing, Wu Yu, Ziyang Haochun wrote a letter to their subordinates, and had them come here to seek allegiance, if they were to come, would they still listen to the orders of the three people? Master, don't forget, we are the ones who provided them with the military rations, if we want to work, they have to work for us, if we want to absorb them into the Tianyuan Army, it will be easy; but as for issuing orders, for the heroes and the citizens, these people will naturally be taken in by our Tianyuan Army as well. In the end, the ones holding the army, will still be the adults, not Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun. In this chaotic world, only those who have the right to own an army, those who have no weapons, everything were just empty talk. If Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and the others wanted to call for their commanders, perhaps no one would listen to them. When the time is ripe, we can kick them out of the way. Even if the three of them have resentment in their hearts, he would not dare to complain, because they and their families are all in the hands of the Lord, and are his hostages. With just one word, the Lord will decide their life and death! "

Tang Yin listened very carefully. When Qiu Zhen finished analyzing the situation, he grinned. He had already said it before, how could Qiu Zhen give away the authority he held on his own?

What a cunning and cunning Qiu Zhen, his schemes and shrewdness were probably even deeper than that Zhong Tian who had usurped his position. But Tang Yin was glad that he had such a great helper.

If Tang Yin was a wolf, then Qiu Zhen was definitely the sly wolf that was attached to a wolf!

After hearing Qiu Zhen's explanation, Tang Yin was finally relieved. His attitude toward Liang Xing, Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun had become even more respectful.

After leaving the tent, Tang Yin asked the soldiers under him where Wu Mei was staying. Without bringing along his followers, he walked over alone.

In the past few days, he did not have much time alone with Wu Mei, and it could even be said that he did not have time. Firstly, because he was busy rushing forward, and secondly, because there were too many people at the Wu Family.

thought that there would be no one else in Wu Mei's room, but in the end, he was wrong. Not only was there someone in there, it was someone he had never expected to meet, Fan Min.

When Tang Yin saw Fan Min in Wu Mei's room, he could not believe his eyes. He could not figure out how Fan Min found him here.

His face revealed a surprised look, but Fan Min remained calm, as if she had already known he was coming over. She smiled at him, and said casually: "Big Brother Tang, you're here!"

Tang Yin stood at the doorway without moving, without speaking, Wu Mei swept her gaze all over the two of them. With her natural instincts, she immediately felt that Tang Yin and Tang Yin's relationship was not simple, and the reason Fan Min came to find her was not simple either.

Wu Mei was born in a noble family, while Fan Min was born in a Fan Family that was as rich as a nation. The two families often interacted, so Wu Mei and Fan Min naturally knew each other since long ago.

This time, Fan Min was here as a guest in order to probe Tang Yin's relationship with him and see if he would come. If he did come, then she would show him some respect.

Sure enough, Fan Min had guessed correctly, Tang Yin had really come.

Seeing Tang Yin standing at the same place, he was surprised at first, but then revealed an awkward expression, Fan Min immediately stood up, went forward to grab his arm, pulled him into the room, and said with a smile: "Miss Wu is my close friend, and Big Brother Tang is my fiance. It's such a coincidence that you two know each other."

Although she was already mentally prepared, hearing that Fan Min was her fiance, Wu Mei's body still trembled.

If it was anyone else, with her pride, she would definitely choose to withdraw without hesitation. But the target was Tang Yin, and the other person was the Fan Min that she looked down on the most.
