After leaving the residence, Tang Yin returned to his own residence. After walking for a short distance, Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe and the rest all looked at each other and smiled. They all cupped their hands and said, "Congratulations, Sir!" Tang Yin was startled, then asked blankly: "What are you congratulating me for?" Congratulations on your engagement to Miss Wu Mei. " Qiu Zhen and the rest laughed.
Tang Yin blinked his eyes, and asked back: "Don't you guys think that this is an old cunning fox like Wu Yu who planned this beforehand?" Qiu Zhen shrugged his shoulders, revealing an indifferent look, he asked: "Could it be that Master does not like Miss Wu Mei?" "Of course not." Since the Lord likes it and he has successfully arranged a marriage with Miss Wu Mei, then there was no need to care whose plan it was. Furthermore, the fact that Master is now married to someone from Wu Family is extremely beneficial to Master. " Qiu Zhen said: "Master wishes to seek the throne, I still need Wu Yu's support." "Yes!" Tang Yin nodded his head, feeling that Qiu Zhen's words made sense.
He did not mount the horse, but held onto the reins, and walked and chatted with Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe and Zong Yuan. Qiu Zhen frowned: "The only troublesome matter is Miss Fan Min. Although Miss Fan Min is not in the city now, she will find out sooner or later. Master must think of a way to deal with her!" Mentioning this, Tang Yin suddenly felt a headache. Even though Fan Min and Wu Mei had known each other for a long time, their personalities were incompatible, quarreling immediately upon meeting each other. If Fan Min knew that he and Wu Mei was already engaged, who knows how this would turn into! Furthermore, Tang Yin was not a person of this era, so her opinion of her three wives and four concubines was not very deep. From the bottom of his heart, he felt a deep sense of guilt towards Fan Min, and did not know how to face her in the future. Sigh! Tang Yin sighed secretly in his heart, and remained silent. With Tang Yin's personal matters, it would not be good for him to interfere too much, and furthermore, this was a troublesome matter. Outsiders might cause more trouble, and Tang Yin could only rely on herself to settle this issue.
Just then, Zong Yuan asked again: "I don't know …." "Who would the lord like to call his wife?" After hearing that, everyone's eyes turned to look at Tang Yin. It seemed like it was Tang Yin's private affairs, but it was not. After all, he had the intention to fight for the throne, and was the person with the most hopes of becoming the Feng King.
"This …" Tang Yin hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "At the moment, I have not thought about it." Seeing that Zong Yuan still had the intention to continue, Tang Yin waved his hands and said: "It is still too early to talk about this!" "Zong Yuan was smart, and was good at observing words and expressions. Upon hearing these words, he immediately swallowed the words that were about to leave his mouth, and nodded:" Master, you are right. " Tang Yin squinted his eyes and changed the topic of the conversation: "Tell me, am I still far from the throne in the palace? "If you want anything to sit on it smoothly." Everyone's spirits were lifted. In their memories, this was the first time Tang Yin seemed to have talked about fighting for the throne, and from this, it could be seen that he changed from passive to active towards the Feng King. Zong Yuan looked left and right, laughed leisurely, and said softly: "Master is already one step away from the throne." "Oh?" Tang Yin was startled, then asked curiously: "Which step?" "The imperial edict of the emperor of Shang Jing." Zong Yuan said with a stern expression: "As long as Shang Jing recognizes you as Feng King, then you will definitely be able to sit on that throne." This was equivalent to bullshitting. Tang Yin rolled his eyes. If even the Emperor had issued an edict conferring him as Feng King, then who in the Feng Country would dare to oppose this? The key question was how to get the emperor to deliver the edict. He furrowed his eyebrows and said faintly, "Jiang Lou's progress in Shang Jing was extremely slow. I don't know how long he'll wait until we get to know him." Zong Yuan's eyes turned and he changed the topic of the conversation. "I heard …" When Princess Yin Rou visited my Feng Country, she was personally escorted by my master. Furthermore, her relationship with my princess was not bad? " Tang Yin didn't know where he found out about these things. Although it was a bit exaggerated, he couldn't say that it was wrong. His relationship with Yin Rou could not be considered to be close, but it was not bad either. However, his feelings towards Yin Rou was definitely not ordinary, as Yin Rou was simply an incarnation of a crystal.
He did not admit or deny it, but said, "Go on!" Zong Yuan replied, "The Emperor and the Princess are siblings who are at the same level. The Emperor usually dotes on his little sister and follows his words, as long as … "If Her Highness can speak a few words of praise for His Majesty, then His Majesty's decree of conferment would be just around the corner." For Yin Rou to speak good words about him going to the Emperor? Tang Yin laughed bitterly in her heart, but did not give her much hope. He had complicated feelings for Yin Rou, but what about Yin Rou? When she had originally escorted her, he was only an ordinary Regiment Commander. Furthermore, after so much time had passed, with Yin Rou's noble status, could she still remember that a small person like him was a problem?
Seeing Tang Yin frown but did not say a word, Zong Yuan could tell his misgivings, he muttered to himself for a moment, then said: "Master, this subordinate thinks that Master needs to personally make a trip to Shang Jing!" "Oh?" Tang Yin's eyes lit up, but before he could say anything, Qiu Zhen, who was on the other side, shook his head like a rattle drum, and said: "I am from Shang Jing and my journey is more than 1000 miles. If I want to go to Shang Jing, I will need at least a month, how long will it take? Furthermore, there was no leader in the kingdom right now, and no leader in the court. Who knew how many people were spying on the Feng King's throne, so once the lord left for a long period of time, those people who were plotting against him would definitely seize the opportunity. Zhang Zhe also agreed with Qiu Zhen's words. He nodded his head and said, "If Your Highness and the Princess really have a deep friendship, you only need to send a letter to Shang Jing. You don't need to personally go there." Zong Yuan looked at Qiu Zhen, then looked at Zhang Zhe, and shook his head: "Right now, the military power is firmly in our hands, even if someone wants to scheme for the throne, they would need our agreement. As for sending a letter to Shang Jing, even if they didn't make any mistakes on the way, wouldn't it be disrespectful to the princess if they could actually hand the letter over to her highness? The imperial government's power was gradually waning. The dukes and royals of various lands no longer listened to the imperial government's commands. What did the imperial family value most? Face and loyalty! "If my lord can personally go to the capital and pay a visit to my princess, I think my lord will be able to win her heart even if my lord and the princess have an average friendship. As long as the princess agrees, the king won't be worried." Oh! Tang Yin secretly nodded his head, thinking that Zong Yuan's words were not unreasonable! Back then when the two countries were at war, even when the princess personally intervened, the outcome of the battle was still not resolved. From this, one could see how much contempt the various kingdoms had for the royal family had for them.
Of course, from the bottom of his heart, Tang Yin also wanted to personally go to Shang Jing to obtain the Emperor's bestowment. But more importantly, he wanted to meet Yin Rou again, the woman that made him think of her day and night.
Seeing that Tang Yin was moved by his words, Qiu Zhen and Zhang Zhe became extremely anxious. They hurriedly said, "Master, to go to Shang Jing, you have to be afraid that there will be a change in the city. Also, you have to pass through Mo Country, Ann Country, what if there are dangers along the way?" As he said that, Qiu Zhen's gaze flashed like lightning, he looked Zong Yuan straight in the eyes, and said coldly: "Zong Yuan, you have been motivating Master to go to Shang Jing, what is your intention?" With regards to the issue of loyalty, Zong Yuan's heart trembled. Even if Qiu Zhen was Tang Yin's most trusted aide, he would not let him go at all. He said seriously, "Master Qiu, this one definitely has no other intentions towards you. As the heavens can attest, the ideas this one has come up with are all for your excellency's sake!" "Hmph!" Qiu Zhen snorted and said: "If you truly are thinking for the Lord, then you shouldn't try to persuade the Lord to personally go to Shang Jing again and again." If Master goes to Shang Jing, it might be dangerous, but if Master does not go to Shang Jing, it will be difficult for the Emperor to pass down his decree. Even if Master goes to Shang Jing, it will not be proper, it will not make sense, it will not only cause my Feng Country to be lower than other countries, it will also make me suffer from the ridicule of the people of the world! " Qiu Zhen was very clear of the importance of the Emperor's decree, and this matter was precisely the one that he brought up first. But even so, he felt that the risk of Tang Yin going to Shang Jing was too great, there were too many variables. He shook his head and said, "Even if my lord wants to be an unrighteous and unruly monarch, he must not leave the capital at this time." "If you want to achieve great things, how can you not take risks?" "That depends on how much risk there is and whether it is worth it." Qiu Zhen and Zong Yuan exchanged words, they could not compete with each other, Tang Yin was stuck in the middle, and both of them argued with each other until his head hurt. He suddenly raised his arm and shouted, "Stop arguing, I've made up my mind!" His sudden voice immediately attracted the gazes of the generals behind him. Although Shangguan Yuan and the other generals were travelling with Tang Yin, they all followed far behind, and did not dare to disturb the discussions between Tang Yin, Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe and Zong Yuan, the three strategists.
Now that they heard Tang Yin's loud shout, they did not understand what was going on. They looked at each other, and in the end their gazes focused on Tang Yin.
Qiu Zhen and Zong Yuan were also shocked, they immediately stopped and clasped their hands at Tang Yin.
Tang Yin licked his lips, his gaze sweeping across Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe, and Zong Yuan's bodies. After a good half a minute of silence, he opened his mouth and said: "This matter …." "Let's go with Zong Yuan's opinion!" After saying that, without waiting for the three of them to react, Tang Yin pulled the reins, jumped onto his horse, and shouted to the people behind him: "Return to the house!" Shangguan Yuan and the rest were all confused, they did not know what Tang Yin meant by 'as per Zong Yuan's opinion', but seeing the ugly expressions on both Qiu Zhen and Zhang Zhe's faces, they guessed that it was definitely not a small matter.
