Although the Captain found it strange that Tang Yin wanted to enter the palace, he did not dare stop him.

In order to avoid suspicion, the Tianyuan Army s were only stationed at the outer parts of the palace to guard themselves from intruders. They were not able to penetrate deep into the palace, which was huge and dark and quiet.

Come to think of it, this was the first time Tang Yin had entered the palace without the aid of a debate. On the way to the Silver Bank, Shangguan Yuanbiao scratched his head and looked around, while whispering: "Master, at night, the palace is also very scary."

Without waiting for Tang Yin to reply, Qiu Zhen turned his head and smiled. "General Yuanbiao, what is there to be afraid of here?"

Shangguan Yuanbiao said in a low voice: "There aren't many people living in the palace now, and many have died before. With such a big place, so many rooms, and no one living in them, would there be any ghosts or things like that …."

Qiu Zhen could not help but burst out laughing, he shook his head and said: "Nonsense."

Just as he finished his sentence, he suddenly heard a cry that sounded like a child's wail from above his head. Not only was Shangguan Yuanbiao shocked, even Qiu Zhen was startled and anxiously raised his head to look. Tang Yin, who was beside him, did not raise his head and continued to walk forward. At the same time, he said: "There's no need to look, it's a wild cat."

Qiu Zhen looked carefully, and it was really as Tang Yin had said. There was a big black cat standing on the roof of the palace, and in the pitch black night, its cat eyes flashed with a strange green light. Qiu Zhen sighed, he anxiously caught up to Tang Yin and laughed: "I never thought that there would be wild cats in the palace."

Tang Yin rolled her eyes at him and did not say anything else. He wasn't afraid of ghosts, and he also didn't believe in the existence of ghosts. If there really were ghosts in the world, then who knew how many people would die at his hands?

Shangguan Yuanbiao was different. No matter how powerful an opponent he met on the battlefield, he would not be afraid of them. After confirming that the one making a strange noise was a cat, he wiped his cold sweat and subconsciously quickened his pace, following closely behind Tang Yin.

The person in charge of the palace's Silver Bank had changed to a thirty year old female official. This girl had a tall and sturdy figure, even taller than a normal man. His face was full of fierceness, and his appearance was ferocious. When Tang Yin and the others arrived, she was sleeping, the female soldier had pulled her up from his sleep, and said repeatedly that the Lord had arrived.

Seeing Tang Yin, the female official immediately woke up from his slumber. He bowed and greeted him, his voice rough: "Master!"

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded and said: "Open the Silver Bank."

"This …" The female official looked up suspiciously and asked: "Didn't you say that no one is allowed to enter the Silver Bank?"

Hearing that, Tang Yin was both angry and amused. This girl was bold, actually daring to use his own words to suppress him. He raised an eyebrow, but didn't answer. His eyes were fixed on the female official. Qiu Zhen sighed and said solemnly: "Master has asked you to open the door so just open it, what is with the nonsense?"

"Oh!" After stroking his back for a while, he finally took out a bunch of keys. He opened the big copper lock on the Silver Bank door, and then moved it to the side, lowering his head as he said, "Sir, please!"

After entering the Silver Bank, Tang Yin let the guards light up the lamps inside the house, and asked softly: "Qiu Zhen, were you the one who found this Silver Bank Master?"

Qiu Zhen blushed and explained: "When working in the palace, it's not appropriate to find a man, and it's also easy to cause trouble, and there are very few female soldiers in the army, it's even more difficult to find someone clever amongst them. This girl is not bad, at least she has a serious attitude."

"Ha!" Tang Yin sneered, and did not speak further on this matter. Waiting until all the oil lamps in the Silver Bank were lit up, Tang Yin slowly walked forward, looking left and right from time to time. The Silver Bank of the palace had already been tidied up, and the large space was filled with shelves, all of the shelves were filled with the palace's treasures, and the majority of the shelves were filled with gold, silver, and jade artifacts.

Tang Yin did not have much interest in these things. Even if he saw a priceless treasure, he would only pick it up for a few glances and then put it back down again without much interest.

Qiu Zhen was not as free as he was. He got people to find an empty box, and then carefully sifted through the treasures in the Silver Bank to pick out the highest quality ones, and then carefully packed them into boxes. Not long after, Qiu Zhen had already picked more than ten gold and silver jewelry.

He sighed from the bottom of his heart, "The family of kings is truly wealthy! These are only the remaining treasures that Zhong Tian did not have the time to take away when he was escaping.

Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders noncommittally.

Just then, a noise came from the Silver Bank. Tang Yin frowned, then he threw his head to a guard behind him, telling him to go out and see what was going on.

Not long after the guard left, he ran back to Tang Yin and said in a low voice: "Reporting to Sir, Mrs Huarong is here."

"Mrs Huarong?" Tang Yin was stunned, for a moment he did not think of this person.

Qiu Zhen secretly frowned, and said: "Master, Mrs Huarong is one of the Concubines of the Former King, when our army invaded the palace, Master met her once."

"Oh!" So it's her! " After hearing Qiu Zhen's reminder, Tang Yin remembered her.

Weird, why would she come to Silver Bank at this time? did not wish to see her now, but after thinking about it, if the matter of him entering the Silver Bank late at night were to be spread out by her, it would damage his reputation. After thinking for a while, he said to the guard, "Let her come in!"

"Yes!" "My Lord!" "Yes," the guard answered and went out again.

Not long after, the guard brought Mrs Huarong over. Behind her were two young maids.

"Screech!" Master Tang entered the palace late at night. After Mrs Huarong entered the Silver Bank, she didn't even look at the surrounding treasures, her gaze sweeping across the crowd. When she saw Tang Yin, her eyes lit up, and walked over with a smile, and asked slowly.

Tang Yin met her gaze, the corners of his mouth raised, and laughed. He said: "I'm here to audit the accounts, I wonder what business does Madam have here?"

"Check the accounts?" Mrs Huarong did not answer Tang Yin's question. His gaze shifted to the chest that was filled with treasures on the ground, and laughed: "What are these? The Master Tang would not be taking the opportunity to check the accounts, would he? Furthermore, the Master Tang came to the palace late at night to investigate their accounts, no one would believe it even if word of it spread! " As she spoke, she raised her arm and covered her mouth with her sleeve, and looked at Tang Yin with a faint smile.

Qiu Zhen took a deep breath, and his frown deepened.

On the other hand, Tang Yin's expression did not change, and his face was filled with ease. He took two steps forward, and his body seemed to be close to the Mrs Huarong, then bent down, and leaned close to her ear, and said faintly: "I think Madam is a smart person, and should know what to say, and what not to say." At this point, his words became a naked threat.

The Mrs Huarong didn't mind Tang Yin's sudden approach at all, he didn't want to retreat one step, and pretended that he didn't understand what was saying. He turned his head, looked straight into Tang Yin's eyes, and said smilingly: "Forgive me for being stupid, I don't understand what the Master Tang is saying."

The two of them were very close to each other, and as long as they moved a little more forward, they would be able to touch the tip of their noses. At such a close distance, Tang Yin could clearly feel the delicate fragrance that the Mrs Huarong spat out as he spoke. He narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but size up Mrs Huarong once again.

Not to mention females, very few people in the Minister of Imperial Court would dare to meet her gaze, but the Mrs Huarong actually had the guts to do so. Moreover, it was the dead of night and they were surrounded by her guards, but the Mrs Huarong did not have the slightest hint of fear, which made them feel astonished.

At this time, even Tang Yin had begun to suspect her identity.

After pausing for a moment, Tang Yin stopped. He looked down at the Mrs Huarong half a head shorter than him and asked: "What do you want?"

The Mrs Huarong laughed, then suddenly changed the topic and asked: "Master Tang should have a plan for the throne, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present trembled. Conspiracy for the throne. These words could only be said from the inside. If the word were to spread, it would be a great sin.

Qiu Zhen's eyes flashed with killing intent, he turned and looked at Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao. The two brothers understood what Qiu Zhen meant, and immediately held onto their swords. As long as Tang Yin gave the order, the two brothers could immediately kill Mrs Huarong and her two maids.

Tang Yin's expression remained the same, but his deep eyes also emitted a green light. The dense killing intent emitted from his body and the Spirit Pressure caused the flames on the surrounding oil lamps to tremble.

As if she did not feel the killing intent of Tang Yin and the surrounding people, Mrs Huarong's face still carried a smile, and she asked with a smile: What's wrong? Master Tang wants to silence me? "

Tang Yin did not admit nor deny, but only said slowly: "If someone can't control their own mouth, I don't mind personally sealing her mouth."

Mrs Huarong giggled. "If I die here, I'm afraid Master Tang won't be able to explain."

Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders and said with complete confidence in himself, "If someone dies, their corpse might not be left behind, nor might anyone discover it."

After a long while, she stopped laughing and said: "The palace is currently controlled by the Master Tang. If a dignified Former King's wife were to disappear from the palace, the Master Tang would not be able to escape from the blame, and wouldn't be able to explain it, right?!"

"…" Tang Yin was speechless.

What an agile and eloquent woman! Tang Yin was secretly surprised.

It would be easy for him to clean up her corpse. However, with just a few people in the palace, a lady would disappear without a trace. When word of this spread, who knew how many rumors would arise against him and the Tianyuan army!
