Tang Yin and Yin Rou walked out of the study. On the way there, Tang Yin said tentatively, "It seems that His Majesty does not wish to see the envoys from the Chuan Country."
Yin Rou said: "The reason the Chuan Country envoys are here is to recruit soldiers."
Tang Yin blinked his eyes in puzzlement and asked: "What recruitment?"
Yin Rou said faintly: "Not long ago, Minister Wang Yi proposed to reform the Directly Subordinate Army Group in the capital. But if we were to recruit troops from the capital, the time it takes to collect new soldiers and train new soldiers would be too long, and the expenses would also be too high, so he advocated to transfer troops from the different kingdoms, thus saving too much time and also having the various kingdoms supporting their respective armies. However, Wang Yi's argument was met with the opposition of various dukes, and Chuan Country was one of the strongest opposing dukes. The reason the envoys of the Chuan Country had come to see the Royal Brother was undoubtedly because of this as well. "
"Oh!" Tang Yin replied thoughtfully. In the end, only a few tens of thousands of the imperial guards remained. It was a good idea to draw troops from the various kingdoms, to be supported by the armies of the dukes, but the commanding authority was actually in the hands of the son of the heavens. This undoubtedly weakened the rights of the dukes and at the same time increased the authority of the Son of Heaven, so it would be strange if the dukes would agree! He frowned and said: "Why have I never heard of this in the Feng Country?"
"At that time, the Feng Country should have been when Zhong Tian was in chaos, and the Son of Heaven's edict must have been sent to Zhong Tian as well." Yin Rou guessed.
That was possible! Tang Yin nodded, and did not pursue the matter further. If he had become the Feng King, he wouldn't be so foolish as to transfer his army to the Shang Jing and spend money for his own support while being commanded by others.
He did not speak and Yin Rou did not speak either. The two walked forward in silence. Perhaps because Yin Rou was too preoccupied with her own thoughts and did not notice that under her feet, she tripped over a square brick that was slightly tilted upwards, causing Yin Rou's body to involuntarily fall forward.
"Princess, be careful!" Don't look at how Tang Yin's spirit energy had dissipated, his attacks were still shockingly fast. His body moved like lightning, he rushed to Yin Rou's side and grabbed onto her.
The frightened Yin Rou recovered his wits after a while. When he saw himself in Tang Yin's embrace, his jade face immediately blushed, and at the same time, his mind naturally recalled the time when he was in danger at Feng Country. Tang Yin had hugged his tightly like this, resisting the numerous assassins.
His embrace would always bring him an indescribable sense of security! As Yin Rou thought about this, her rosy cheeks also became even redder.
Seeing such a bashful and adorable Yin Rou, Tang Yin had the urge to lower his head and kiss her, but his rationality stopped him from doing so. This was after all, the Imperial Palace, and there were so many guards around, so he couldn't do something that would shame Yin Rou's reputation. He held Yin Rou's body steady and then reluctantly retracted her arm.
"You're leaving the capital tomorrow?" Yin Rou used a question to cover up the distress in her heart.
"Yes." Tang Yin looked straight at Yin Rou. If she asked him to bring her back to the Feng Country now, he would definitely accept her without hesitation. No matter how many people tried to stop him, he didn't care.
But Yin Rou didn't say that, she only gave a light "oh", and didn't say anything else. Instead, a lonely and sorrowful expression flashed across her face.
It made Tang Yin's heart hurt even more to pretend that it was strong. He raised his hand, wanting to embrace Yin Rou, but his hand stopped in midair and didn't fall back down.
"Let's go, I'll send you out of the palace." Yin Rou said lightly.
When Tang Yin and Yin Rou walked out of the courtyard of the Tian Zi study, Xiao Min immediately welcomed them. She first greeted them respectfully, then took out a Spirit-gathering Pill and gave it to Tang Yin.
After casually swallowing the Spirit-gathering Pill into his stomach, Tang Yin suddenly remembered something. He reached into his bosom and took out a deerskin bag, which was bulging with bulges. He handed it over to Yin Rou and said: "I wanted to give this to you a long time ago."
"What is it?" Yin Rou curiously received the leather pouch and pulled open the rope on it. Opening the pouch, he took out a jade green gem from the ground.
This gem was half the size of a palm, it was dark green in color, without even the slightest flaw. Holding it in his hand, it was cold, chilly, and a wave of cold air rushed into his body.
As the princess of an empire, Yin Rou had seen all sorts of treasures, but she had never seen such a strange and beautiful gem before. Looking at it, it was as if she was looking into Tang Yin's eyes, and an indescribable feeling suddenly arose in her heart.
Seeing Yin Rou hold the green crystal stone for a long time without saying anything, Tang Yin finally became nervous. He frowned and asked: "Does the princess not like it? That... Then just throw it away. " Saying that, he reached out and grabbed the gem in Yin Rou's hand.
He didn't manage to grab the gem, but instead grabbed Yin Rou's clenched fist. He looked at Yin Rou strangely, but what surprised him was that Yin Rou had a dazzling smile on her face. She said softly, "I like it very much. I will treasure this gem. "
Ah!" When Tang Yin heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. It was difficult to see Yin Rou smile this brilliantly, which made Tang Yin cherish his.
Only when Xiao Min could no longer watch and coughed heavily, did she regain her senses, her old face immediately flushed red, and quickly withdrew his hand, using a dry laugh to hide her awkwardness, and said: "If the princess likes it, I will find a chance to get some more."
This green crystal stone was found in the underground cave when Tang Yin was cultivating the Fire of Darkness. At that time, he did not think that it was some kind of treasure, and only picked up two pieces and gave one piece to Fan Min.
"A treasure like this should be very valuable." Yin Rou smiled at Tang Yin: "Having one is already enough."
So it turns out that you are so easily satisfied... Tang Yin looked at Yin Rou with pity, her heart also shrinking and sinking. Maybe he didn't even realise it himself, but the closer he got to Yin Rou, the deeper he sunk. His love for Yin Rou had already far surpassed the limits of his reason.
Yin Rou treasured the jade-green gem greatly, and then, she took down a brocade sack from her waist. She had wanted to give it to Tang Yin, but after a moment of thought, she changed her mind, took a step forward, bent down, and tied the brocade sack onto Tang Yin's belt with her hands.
Not only was Xiao Min dumbfounded by her actions, even the guards on both sides were dumbfounded, their jaws almost dropping off. The high and mighty Princess actually gave someone else a brocade bag. This was already far beyond their scope of understanding.
Tang Yin was also a little anxious, he anxiously replied: "I … I'll do it myself! "
Yin Rou did not listen to him and continued to wear the embroidered bag. She said softly, "This is the protective talisman my royal father bestowed upon me when I was born.
Soft... Tang Yin didn't know how much willpower he had to use to suppress the urge to embrace her. In this era, there were too many restrictions, and Tang Yin still had no choice but to follow them. Seeing the Yin Rou close at hand, he could only silently mutter her name in his heart, but in his heart, he swore that one day, he would have her openly, and with everything she has!
After leaving the palace, the sky had already darkened. Tang Yin did not delay on the road and directly rushed back to the inn with a restless mood.
This time, there were no more accidents on the road. It seemed that after the last time Spirit Cultivator of Dark failed to assassinate Tang Yin, he restrained herself a lot and did not dare to continue looking for trouble with him.
Returning to the tavern, Tang Yin called over Le Tian, Jiang Fan, and Jiang Lou. They were leaving tonight, heading back to the Yan City. However, Jiang Lou and the other spies were going to stay in Shang Jing.
Actually, the situation with the Yan City in Tang Yin's heart wasn't serious enough for him to need to travel back overnight. Only, he didn't dare to stay in the capital anymore, as he was afraid that he would suddenly be unwilling to leave, unwilling to leave Yin Rou's side.
He had always been proud of his own super strong self-control, but in front of Yin Rou, he did not have any confidence in his self-control at all.
When they came to Shang Jing, Tang Yin had brought Le Tian and Jiang Fan here, and when he left, he brought Le Tian and Jiang Fan here as well.
He did not understand why Tang Yin would suddenly leave in such a hurry, Le Tian and Jiang Fan did not dare ask too much, the two of them carried their luggage and followed Tang Yin out of the inn, quickly riding on their horses and whipping across the horses, flying straight back.
In one breath, Tang Yin rushed out of Shang Jing and then unhesitatingly entered the Ann Country. Le Tian and Jiang Fan used all their might to barely manage to keep up with Tang Yin. It was only when he was already over a hundred kilometers into the Ann Country territory and the sky had already turned white that Tang Yin's horse gradually slowed down.
At this time, Le Tian and Jiang Fan finally caught up to Tang Yin, and they also finally found an opportunity to speak. The two of them panted heavily, Le Tian swallowed his saliva, and said: "Master, let's rest first, if not, even if people can take it, the horses won't be able to!"
Tang Yin wiped off the perspiration on his face, he looked down and saw that the horses he was riding were all shaking, and if he were to continue running, he would probably die of fatigue from spitting white foam. He nodded and said: "Alright, let's rest here for a while before we go."
After the three of them dismounted from their horses, they felt pain on their buttocks, numbness and numbness all over their bodies. It was as if all the bones in their bodies were about to break apart.
Tang Yin released his horse to the side to graze on the grass, while he himself sat on the ground. He leaned his body back, looked at the stars in the sky, and said: "Le Tian, Jiang Fan!"
"Lord?"
Le Tian and Jiang Fan walked over quickly and looked at him in puzzlement.
Tang Yin squinted his eyes, as if he was talking to himself or to the two of them, and said: "Once I become a Feng King, I will definitely marry her. Other than her, there will not be another Queen of Feng Country!"
