"My Lord, don't act rashly, the latest chapter." Qiu Zhen said calmly: "My Lord, have you ever thought about what kind of impact it will have on you and our army if the news leaks out?"
Tang Yin looked at Qiu Zhen and asked: "What impact?"
Qiu Zhen took a deep breath and said: "The heroes of the world will oppose us just like we opposed Zhong Tian. Zhong Tian's today may be our tomorrow."
Oh? Tang Yin frowned secretly and did not answer immediately.
Wu Yu on the side laughed and said slowly: "I think Mr. Qiu is too serious?! Not to mention that the news will not leak out, even if it does, no one can do anything to my nephew Tang without real evidence."
"Humph!" Qiu Zhen snorted coldly, glanced at Wu Yu with the corner of his eye, and said faintly: "It's none of my business, Wu Xiang is of course talking without any pain in the waist!"
"You..." I didn't expect Qiu Zhen to be so bold that he dared to talk to me like this. Before Wu Yu could get angry, Qiu Zhen said to Tang Yin: "If Zhan Ling dies, it will be most beneficial for you to become king. This is the evidence. Once the rumor spreads, it will not be controlled. At that time, the people will complain about you, and your road to becoming king will be full of difficulties. In this way, it will only allow people with ulterior motives to reap the benefits." While speaking, Qiu Zhen's eyes drifted directly to Wu Yu next to him.
Wu Yu was not a fool, how could he not see that Qiu Zhen was hinting at him? His heart trembled, and then he became furious and shouted: "Qiu Zhen, you are so bold that you dare to slander others..."
Qiu Zhen waved his hand to break his hand, and said coldly: "Whether I slandered others or not, I think Wu Xiang knows it best."
"You..."
"Okay!" Tang Yin was headached by the quarrel between the two of them. He shouted and stopped the two of them. Then, he walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.
Wu Yu knew that if she could get rid of Zhan Ling directly, she would clear the biggest obstacle on her way to becoming king. Of course, this made sense. If Zhan Ling didn't die, she wouldn't have the possibility of becoming king at all. However, Qiu Zhen's concerns were not wrong. If Zhan Ling died, she would be the most suspicious. Even if there was no real evidence, I'm afraid the people of the world would think that it was her doing. Even if she could successfully obtain the throne in the end, she would be criticized. I don't know what kind of trouble would arise.
This is really troublesome! Why did such a person suddenly appear out of nowhere! Tang Yin didn't say anything, but just walked with his hands behind his back and his head down. Wu Yu and Qiu Zhen next to him were anxious. They said almost at the same time: "Nephew Tang (sir)——"
Tang Yin raised his hand to stop the two from talking. After thinking for a while, he suddenly raised his head and said to Cheng Jin: "Cheng Jin, pass on my order and let Xiao Muqing send 20,000 soldiers of the Pingyuan Army to the Zuo Xiangfu."
Hearing this, Qiu Zhen's face changed drastically. Using hidden arrows to assassinate was not a solution. If he sent a large army to kill people openly, what would happen? Isn't this the same as digging your own grave? He was so anxious that cold sweats came out, and he shouted: "My Lord!"
Wu Yuze's expression was completely opposite to Qiu Zhen's. He smiled and nodded repeatedly, saying: "Nephew Tang is wise." If it weren't for Qiu Zhen's reminder just now, he really didn't think that Tang Yin killing Zhan Ling would be so beneficial to him. Once Zhan Ling died, Tang Yin couldn't get away from it. As long as someone secretly instigated, the people of the world would rise up and oppose him. Then Tang Yin would be finished. The throne would be passed around, and it would become his biggest chance.
Cheng Jin hurriedly bowed in response to Tang Yin's order, then he looked at Wu Yu and Qiu Zhen, who had completely different expressions, and asked uncertainly: "Does your lord mean... to enter the Zuo Xiang Mansion to arrest someone or... to go in and kill someone directly?"
Tang Yin frowned, stared at Cheng Jin, and said: "Did I say to arrest someone or kill someone? After our army arrives at the Zuo Xiang Mansion, they are not allowed to enter without permission. Protect the Zuo Xiang Mansion for me, especially Zhan Ling. If anything happens to her, I want Xiao Muqing's head! Go! Pass my words to Xiao Muqing."
After hearing Tang Yin's order, Wu Yu and Qiu Zhen were dumbfounded. Cheng Jin didn't react for a while. After a long pause, he asked again: "Does your lord mean to protect Zhan Ling closely?"
Tang Yin tilted his head and asked in doubt: "Yes! Is my words so difficult to understand?"
"I understand! I understand!" Cheng Jin finally confirmed that Tang Yin did not mean to kill Zhan Ling. He bowed and saluted, then walked out of the side room quickly to find Xiao Muqing to convey Tang Yin's meaning.
As soon as Cheng Jin left, Tang Yin called the guards outside and asked them to bring his official uniform.
Now, Wu Yu didn't understand Tang Yin's intention, and Qiu Zhen was also confused by him. She wanted to ask questions, but seeing Tang Yin's gloomy face, she swallowed the words on her lips. Finally, Wu Yu asked tentatively: "Nephew Tang, what are you doing..."
Tang Yin straightened his back and his face became serious. He said slowly: "If this Zhan Ling is real, she is the only blood of the late king. As a minister, I should protect her well. However, her own words are not enough to confirm her identity. I want to go to the palace to meet the wives of the late king and let them confirm whether this Zhan Ling is real or not."
His words were righteous and reasonable, and he looked like a loyal minister. Wu Yu was confused by Tang Yin's sudden change, while Qiu Zhen's heart moved and his eyes lit up. His master was not as simple as he looked on the surface!
Soon, the guards brought Tang Yin's official uniform and helped Tang Yin to dress up.
Tang Yin's current official position is still the county chief, so the official uniform he wears is naturally the county chief's uniform. He wears a jade crown on his head, a black robe, a jade belt around his waist, and black brocade boots. Wearing the official uniform, Tang Yin exudes a more majestic and cold aura.
He wants to go to the palace to find Zhan Hua's concubines to confirm Zhan Ling's identity. Wu Yu also wants to go with him, but Tang Yin politely refuses. He smiles and says, "Wu Xiang should go to the Zuo Xiang Mansion first to wait for my news! The fewer people go to the important place of the harem, the better."
This is obviously an excuse, but after he said that, Wu Yu couldn't say anything more, so he had to get up and say goodbye to Tang Yin.
After Wu Yu left, Tang Yin didn't delay in his own house. He immediately asked the guards to prepare the carriage. He only took Qiu Zhen and the Shangguan brothers to the palace.
On the way, Qiu Zhen wanted to ask Tang Yin several times what his plan was, but seeing that Tang Yin had a gloomy face and had no intention of speaking, he did not dare to say much. There was no conversation on the way. The carriage arrived at the gate of the palace smoothly under the escort of many cavalry guards. After Tang Yin got off the car, he left Qiu Zhen and others outside the palace gate and entered the palace alone.
After entering the palace, Tang Yin walked forward not far and just saw two little palace maids hurriedly passing by. He stretched out his hand and shouted: "Wait a minute!"
The two little palace maids knew Tang Yin. Seeing him suddenly appear in the palace and call them, the faces of the two little girls changed at the same time. They paused for a while before timidly walking forward, bowing and whispering: "Master Tang!"
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded, raised the corner of his mouth, showing a confusing smile, and asked softly: "Do you two know where Madam Hua Rong lives?"
When they heard that he was not asking for trouble, the two little palace maids secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They both nodded and said, "I know, I know!"
"Take me there!"
"Yes! Lord Tang!"
The two maids did not dare to neglect and led the way, leading Tang Yin to the palace where Madam Hua Rong lived.
The harem was indeed an important place. As an outsider, Tang Yin had no right to enter privately. However, now that he held great power, even the guards of the palace were his subordinates, so naturally no one dared to stop him.
The two maids took Tang Yin around the palace for a long time, and finally saw the palace where Madam Hua Rong lived in a secluded corner.
It was called a palace, but it was actually just a relatively large house. In a place like the palace where luxury was everywhere, this palace seemed very inconspicuous, and the location was also poor. Even in broad daylight, it seemed cold and quiet, and there was no one around.
It turned out that Madam Hua Rong lived in such a place. Tang Yin smiled at the young palace maids, took out two ingots of silver from his bosom, handed them to the two, and said with a smile: "Sorry to bother you two young ladies, there is nothing for you to do there, you two can leave now." His words were very polite, how could an ordinary young palace maid be considered a female official.
Looking at the silver handed over by Tang Yin, the two girls were surprised and happy, and then looked at his handsome features and bright and charming smile, both of them seemed a little absent-minded. Tang Yin had no time to delay with them, stuffed the silver into their hands, and then strode towards the palace in front.
"Lord Tang and Zhong Tian are very different..." Tang Yin walked a long way, and the two girls came back to their senses, looking at the silver in their hands, and couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of their hearts.
Let's talk about Tang Yin. He just walked to the palace gate, and before he could get close inside, two palace maids came out to greet him. It was not known whether it was too quiet or their voices were too harsh. They said in unison: "Master Tang! Why are you here?"
Tang Yin frowned secretly. Although he came here in secret, he didn't want to let passers-by know. However, the voices of the two palace maids were too loud. It was estimated that they could be heard clearly from a hundred meters away. He said indifferently, "I am here to see Madam Hua Rong. Please go in and report!"
"Okay, Master Tang, please wait! Madam should be taking a nap at this time."
Tang Yin looked up at the sky and rolled his eyes. It was only a little after ten o'clock. Madam Hua Rong's nap was really early. However, life in the palace was so leisurely. She ate and slept, and slept and ate. Madam Hua Rong could still maintain such a good figure. It was incredible.
The two maids were not inside for long, and one of them came out and said to Tang Yin with a smile: "Sir Tang, the lady wants to see you."
"Thank you for your help." Tang Yin responded politely and stepped over the threshold into the hall. As soon as he came in, he could smell a faint fragrance, which was the unique fragrance of Madam Hua Rong.
