Chapter 510

Tang Yin is so smart, how could he not understand Liang Qi's purpose? Read the full text. He looked around and saw a pear tree in the yard. He raised his head and said, "Look."

Liang Qi was startled, followed Tang Yin's gaze, and asked, "What did you want the general to see?"

Tang Yin said calmly: "Twigs growing from the same root can grow inwards and outwards, let alone people? I will not remember what your father has done on you. On the contrary, what you have done will not be remembered." What I did made me have to worry about your father." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand with a smile, straightened the slightly loose armor on Liang Qi's body, and said: "Don't worry, I know What should be done and what should not be done will not be difficult for my brother."

Although he had no words to explain directly, the implication was already clear. Not only would he not anger Liang Qi this time, but he would also let Liang Xing off again.

Tang Yin was not a kind and kind person, especially towards those who were against him. He was always ruthless and resorted to all possible means. His attitude towards Liang Xing even exceeded the limit of what he could tolerate. This made Liang Qi Extremely touched. The latter's eyes turned red, and tears flowed down his face. He knelt down again, cupped his hands and said with a trembling voice: "My lord's great kindness to me will be unforgettable by me!"

Tang Yin frowned, pulled Liang Qiqiang up, and said seriously: "Liang Qi, what are you doing?! Do you remember when you first took refuge in me? I said then that since you are willing to take refuge in me, in the future You and I are brothers, regardless of each other. Although your father is not my father, he is my brother's father. No matter how many wrong things he does, I can bear to give in."

Liang Qi was even more moved when he heard this. The hand holding Tang Yin's arm was trembling, and he choked and said: "Sir..."

Tang Yin really liked Liang Qi so much. Liang Qi was one of the people who could reassure him the most when it came to commanding troops to fight. With Liang Qi here, the Sanshui Army of the Tianyuan Army was a tiger and wolf division that could make people fearful. , The city can be destroyed when attacking, and the defense can be as stable as a rock. In order to stabilize Liang Qi, a general, Tang Yin could only make certain concessions to Liang Xing.

Thirty days passed in a flash. During these thirty days, Yancheng was calm and there were no major disturbances. The Tianyuan Army continued to recruit troops, expand the army on a large scale, and increase the establishment. Liang Xing did not cause trouble for Tang Yin anymore. He basically stayed at home in the house, but he was not idle either. He found the ministers of the court and central government at his home almost every day. Conspiracy and deliberation.

Thirty days later, the emperor's edict still has not arrived in Yancheng, and the undercurrents originally hidden under the calm surface gradually emerge.

Early in the morning that day, the civil and military ministers did not rush to the palace to attend the court meeting, but all gathered in Liang Xing's house.

Ministers gathered in small groups in the lobby of the Prime Minister's Mansion, talking a lot. Of course, the focus of people's talk was today's election of the new monarch.

Just as people were whispering and exchanging opinions, Liang Xing finally approached from the side door of the lobby. Seeing a room full of civil and military ministers, Liang Xing pretended to be very surprised. He raised his hands to everyone and asked, "Why did you all go to the Prime Minister's house instead of going to court?"

Seeing Liang Xing, everyone's eyes lit up, and then they all saluted Liang Xing and said, "Prime Minister Liang!"

"We are here to congratulate Prime Minister Liang!"

Liang Xing pretended not to understand, with a confused look on his face, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to me? Why are you so happy about me?"

A minister said: "The time limit agreed between Liang Xiang and Tang Yin at the beginning was thirty days, and it just expires today. However, the emperor's edict is still to be sent to the capital. According to the agreement, when a new monarch is to be elected, we will all choose Prime Minister Liang. From now on, Prime Minister Liang will be elected." He is my legitimate new monarch, Dafeng!"

"Congratulations to Prime Minister Liang... No, no, no! Congratulations to the king!" Some ministers who are good at flattery have already called Liang Xing the king.

Liang Xing was happy in his heart, but he still had a worried expression on his face. He said: "You also saw that the day Tang Yin returned to the capital, his reputation in the army was very high, and almost all of our Dafeng soldiers were affected by it. He is in control of his confusion. Even if you, your lords, are willing to elect me, if Tang Yin becomes king by force, we cannot stop him!"

"Prime Minister Liang, there is no need to worry, we have already thought about this."

Zhang Xin, the internal history officer of Zhisu, walked out from among the ministers and came to Liang Xing. He cupped his hands and smiled and said: "Prime Minister Liang, I have secretly sent people to summon the people inside and outside Yancheng to go to the palace to wait for the results of the selection of the new king. They said it was to celebrate me. The birth of a new monarch in Dafeng can actually serve as a supervisor. If Tang Yin really dares to use force to become king, people all over the world will know about it. I think in full view of the public, Tang Yin will not dare to risk the power of the world. You do this without hesitation and do something that is outrageous to both humans and gods!"

Zhang Xin is Liang Xing's confidant and can also be regarded as his think tank. It was his idea that Liang Xing defrauded the Sanshui Army and became king in the palace.

After hearing what he said, Liang Xing was overjoyed and thought secretly. However, there was still no smile on his face, and he said quietly: "If too few people come, I'm afraid the effect will be very little!"

"Haha! Prime Minister Liang, the people are also very curious and eager to know who the new monarch of Dafeng is, so there is no need to incite, just let out the news, and the people will come spontaneously. The official has just received the news and is now outside the palace. The number of people gathered has exceeded 200,000, and the number is still increasing. It is estimated that there will be more than 300,000 in the end." Zhang Xin said confidently, shaking his head.

"Haha..." At this time, Liang Xing finally smiled. He clasped his hands behind his back, nodded slowly, and said easily with a smile: "Since Mr. Zhang has arranged everything, then we don't want to stay here anymore, my lords. , enter the palace as you are!"

"Please, Mr. Liang!"

"My lords, please!"

Liang Xing led a group of civil and military ministers out of Zuo Xiang's Mansion and went straight to the palace in the center of Yancheng.

Zhang Xin is right. Not only the people of Feng Kingdom are concerned about who the new monarch will be, but also businessmen and tourists from other vassal states come to join in the fun. On the way to the palace, you will find that most of the pedestrians on the road are Walking in the direction of the palace, most of what people talked about was related to today's election of a new monarch.

When we arrived near the palace, it was already difficult to move forward. Looking forward, we could see nothing but people. The scene could only be described as a sea of ​​people and an endless sea of ​​people. A large palace would almost be filled with people. The Pingyuan Army had pulled over three regiments to maintain order, but it still seemed powerless. Many soldiers were staggered by the crowd even if they tried their best. The number of people gathered outside the palace was no less than thirty at this time. Ten thousand.

This was exactly what Liang Xing saw when he came. He had a calm smile on his face and was even more elated in his heart. With so many people gathered outside the palace, Tang Yin would not dare to use force anymore even if he had the courage to do so. , otherwise, he will become the second most popular person in Zhongtian, and will be criticized by thousands of people and scolded by thousands of people.

Tang Yin was clever but was misled by his cleverness. It seems that he is determined to be the new king of Feng Kingdom! Liang Xing couldn't sit still in the carriage. He opened the curtain, leaned out, waved his arms to the people around him from time to time, and said: "Everyone, give way, everyone, give way for now..."

Liang Xing's carriage opened the way, followed by the carriages of other ministers, separating the crowd from the outside and slowly walking towards the gate of the palace.

In just a few hundred meters, Liang Xing and others walked for nearly an hour. This was thanks to the soldiers of the Pingyuan Army who crowded over to clear the way, otherwise the delay would have been even longer.

After finally getting through the huge crowd, Liang Xing and others' carriage arrived at the gate of the palace. This place has long been under martial law by the Pingyuan Army. People can't squeeze in, and the space seems much spacious.

With a creaking sound, the palace door was slowly opened, and the carriage of Liang Xing and others drove into the palace. As soon as they arrived, the palace gate was immediately closed again. After all, there were too many people outside. What if the situation got out of control and some people crowded into the palace?

After passing through the long corridor, you come to the second palace gate. When you approach this palace gate, you truly enter the palace.

At this point, the ministers can no longer ride in the carriage, which is a great disrespect to the monarch. Although the Feng Kingdom is now ownerless, the rules of the palace have not been abolished.

Liang Xing and other ministers got out of the carriage one after another. The servants and guards all stayed where they were, and the ministers walked towards the palace gate.

Creak, creak, creak!

The palace door was slowly opened, and the ministers were about to step inside, but when they looked up, everyone's bodies were stiff, their faces were blank, and their eyes were wide and round.

Inside the palace gate is a huge square, which is the size of two or three football fields. It is usually just an open space, but now, the square is dark and filled with soldiers of the Feng Army.

I saw countless wind troops lined up in a neat square array on the square, row after row, as straight as a line. The dark leather armor flashed black light under the shadow of the sun, and the red tassels on the top of their heads were connected into one piece. Looking at it, there is red in the black, black in the red, black and red, and the chilling atmosphere is shuddering.

With so many people, there must be at least ten regiments and one hundred thousand soldiers! There were so many heavily armed soldiers standing on both sides of the corridor that anyone walking there would feel cold in their heart and their legs would become weak.

The ministers who were still confident at first felt their hearts tightening when they saw this scene, and then their hearts were in their throats.

After all, Liang Xing was a traditional dignitary who had seen strong winds and waves. He was also surprised and scared in his heart, but there was no expression on his face. Seeing that the ministers on the left and right all had fearful expressions on their faces, he suddenly panicked and said nothing. Without saying much, he stepped through the palace gate and strode towards the main hall of the palace at the end of the corridor.

Liang Xing was like this, and the ministers could not stand still and were afraid to move forward. People gritted their teeth, took small steps in fear, and trotted closely behind Liang Xing.
