Chapter 501

Tang Yin was very smart and would not tolerate any injustice. Even if Liang Xing cheated the Sanshui Army of its military power, it would be easy to stop him from becoming king with his own military strength. During this period, the generals headed by Qiu Zhen did nothing. It was obvious that they were deliberately indulging Liang Xing and waiting for him to become king. In this way, their side was cornered and could only use tough means to eliminate Liang Xing and the so-called court he formed.

Le Tian seemed to understand what he heard, but he was very clear about one thing: he could no longer stay in Shangjing and had to rush back to Fengguo immediately. He said seriously: "Sir, we must set off immediately and return to Yancheng. Otherwise, if Liang Xing, the king, stays for too long and is recognized by the people, it will be very disadvantageous to us!" "Haha!" Tang Yin rolled his eyes, chuckled, and said: "Since Qiu Zhen can deliberately indulge Liang Xing to become king, then he should have a way to make Liang Xing, the king, sit uneasy, don't worry." "But..." How could Le Tian feel at ease when his backyard was on fire? Looking at the confident Tang Yin, he was really confused. He asked: "Sir, then... what should we do now?" "Wait here." "Wait for what?" "Wait for three days, and then we will return to Fengguo." Tang Yin said thoughtfully.

Wait for three days? Le Tian, ​​Jiang Fan, and Jiang Lu were all stunned. They didn't understand why the lord had to waste three days in Shangjing when such a big thing happened in the capital? However, seeing that Tang Yin had no intention of saying more, everyone could not ask further and could only nod in response.

The next day, Tang Yin got up very early and asked Le Tian to buy some books to kill time. Tang Yin was not a book lover, but there was no other entertainment that could interest him in this era, and now there was a mysterious dark spiritual practitioner eyeing him, so he didn't want to go out and cause trouble.

Following Tang Yin's order, Le Tian took a few Sky Eye personnel who were familiar with the terrain of Shangjing to go out for a walk and brought back a lot of books. There were all kinds of content, from astronomy to geography, from ancient times to the present, everything was available.

Tang Yin took these books to his room and flipped through them at will.

For a whole day, Tang Yin hardly moved in the room, just reading, eating, and sleeping. The next day, Tang Yin was still the same, not leaving the house, and still reading in the room. On the third day, seeing that Tang Yin was still stuck in the room, Le Tian, ​​Jiang Fan and Jiang Lu were a little dumbfounded.

The three of them whispered outside Tang Yin's room: "Why does the master lock himself in the room all day? Is he...sick?" "The master eats three meals a day, and eats a lot at every meal, how can he be sick?" "Maybe it's a mental illness!" "Because of the matter in Yancheng?" "That may not be the case, it may be related to Her Royal Highness the Princess..." As the three were whispering, the door suddenly opened and Tang Yin walked out. Seeing this, the three were startled and said nervously: "Master... We just happened to pass by, and we didn't mean to disturb you from reading..." Tang Yin looked at the three strangely and said inexplicably: "I'm going to the toilet." "..." In the afternoon, Le Tian, ​​Jiang Fan, and Jiang Lu had begun to pack their bags and prepare for the journey back. Tang Yin said that he would stay in Shangjing for another three days. Now two and a half days have passed, and he can return to Fengguo early tomorrow morning.

When the three were busy packing, Xiao Min came.

Xiao Min was Yin Rou's chief guard. Le Tian and others did not dare to neglect and hurried to report to Tang Yin. Tang Yin, who was reading a book in the room, heard the news that Xiao Min was coming. For a moment, a look of relief flashed across his face, but soon he returned to normal. He nodded and said, "Please ask her to come in!" Not long after, Xiao Min came in from outside. Seeing the books piled high on the table, she was also startled. She looked at Tang Yin in surprise and said, "I never knew you loved reading so much." Tang Yin said as a matter of course without blushing or panting, "As the saying goes, you learn as long as you live!" "Why haven't I heard of this?!" Xiao Min muttered.

Tang Yin changed the subject and asked with a smile, "Xiao Min, what do you want to see me for?" Hearing this, Xiao Min immediately held her head high, put her hands behind her back, walked to Tang Yin in a square step, picked up a book, flipped through it a few times, and made a sound of "tsk tsk".

Tang Yin was happy, tilted his head, and smiled at Xiao Min.

Putting the book down, Xiao Min suddenly bent down, approached Tang Yin, and asked: "How do you want to thank me?" Tang Yin looked at the big eyes leaning close to him and raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Xiao Min stared at him for two seconds, then straightened up proudly and said: "His Majesty summoned you to the palace." Wow! This understated sentence made Tang Yin's heart jump up suddenly, almost jumping out of his throat. The reason why he said he would stay in Shangjing for three days was to wait for this news. He didn't know whether Yin Rou would go to the emperor for him, nor did he know whether the emperor would listen to Yin Rou's words. He was even more uncertain whether the emperor could summon him, so he decided to wait in Shangjing for only three days. If there was no news after three days, he would return to Yancheng to deal with the chaos in his backyard. He didn't expect that on the last day, he really waited for the long-awaited news.

After a moment's silence, Tang Yin raised his head calmly and asked, "Now?" It was such a great honor to be summoned by the emperor, but Xiao Min did not see any joy on Tang Yin's face. She asked, "Why? Are you unhappy?" "Of course not." Tang Yin raised the corner of his mouth.

"What a weirdo." Xiao Min couldn't see through Tang Yin's mind, so she naturally classified him as a weirdo.

Tang Yin didn't mind at all, but instead said, "Thanks to Xiao Min for helping me this time." "Don't thank me!" Xiao Min shook her hand and said, "The reason why the emperor can summon you is all thanks to the princess. The princess has said a lot of good things for you in front of the emperor these two days, and her lips are almost worn out." "I am naturally grateful to your highness." Tang Yin was not a person who spoke sweet words, and his words made people feel very stiff.

Xiao Min rolled her eyes at Tang Yin in annoyance and said, "There are many things that can't be said by mouth!" After a pause, she asked seriously, "If you can really become the King of Shangfeng, will you stop the princess and Li Dan from getting married?" This is the question that Xiao Min cares about most. Yin Rou doesn't like Li Dan, and she is even more unwilling to marry Li Dan. Xiao Min can naturally see that she doesn't want the princess to be unhappy all her life.

Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and said faintly: "I will." Xiao Min asked: "What will you do then?" Tang Yin asked word by word: "Is it a good idea to lead troops to attack Zhen State?" Xiao Min was shocked and said in horror: "Sending troops to attack Zhen State? Are you crazy? In that case, you will become the target of public criticism, and may even be attacked by other vassal states!" "So what?" Tang Yin sneered and said: "What kind of man is a man who gives his beloved woman to others?!" "..." Xiao Min looked at Tang Yin for a long time without saying anything. If Tang Yin really did what he said, she would rather hope that Tang Yin could not become the King of Wind. However, most things are not something that she, a mere guard captain, can stop.

The last time Tang Yin entered the palace, he was brought in secretly by Xiao Min, but this time he entered the palace openly at the emperor's summons.

The south gate of the palace is the main gate. It is much larger and more imposing than the other palace gates. There are armored guards on both sides, so many that you can't see the edge at a glance.

The emperor did not summon Tang Yin to the main hall of the palace, but to the study room, which shows that this summoning was more private.

The emperor's study room was not much different from the palace. There were thousands of books placed in it, but the tall and large space still seemed empty. In it, if you spoke a little louder, it would echo. Before entering the study room, Tang Yin was stopped by several guards outside the courtyard. They searched him carefully and made sure that he had no sharp weapons. Then they let him go.

When he walked outside the study room, Tang Yin was stopped by several guards again. One of them used the insight technique to observe him and nodded to the people around him. Seeing this, another person immediately took out the Sanling Pill and gave it to Tang Yin, asking him to take it himself.

I didn't know that there were such trivial rules to meet the emperor, and even the spiritual energy had to be dispersed. At this time, he was a little hesitant. Once he dispersed his spiritual energy, he would be no different from ordinary people. What if an accident happened? There was no time to think about it. The guards around him were all staring at him eagerly. Tang Yin made up his mind, took the Sanling Pill, and swallowed it.

After waiting for a while, the guard who had used the insight technique just now checked Tang Yin again. After confirming that his spiritual energy had dissipated, he stepped aside and opened the door of the study, saying: "Master Tang, please come in!" At this point, Xiao Min could no longer follow Tang Yin in. Although she was Yin Rou's chief guard, she had no right to enter the emperor's study without the emperor's special summons.

Tang Yin looked back at Xiao Min, and when he saw the latter nodded to him, he stepped into the study.

The floor of the study was paved with black marble, which was polished, shiny and smooth, like a mirror. If you looked down, you could almost see your own image. Looking around, apart from the books, the decorations in the study were magnificent and dazzling. Whether it was the bookshelves or the beams and pillars, they were all inlaid with gold, silver and jade. The degree of luxury made Tang Yin wonder if all the wealth in the world was concentrated here.

As he looked up, a delicate voice came from his side: "Sir, please come in." Tang Yin turned his head and saw that there was a little palace maid of fifteen or sixteen standing at the door. She had a pretty face and a humble attitude. She put her hands in front of her, lowered her head, and walked in front to lead the way for him.

He followed the little palace maid and walked to the inner room of the study. He looked up and saw two people sitting on the couch, a man and a woman, both of them were young. Tang Yin knew the fairy-like girl, Yin Rou.
