Chapter 688
"Will your Majesty let this thief go?" Letian said worriedly: "Even if Your Majesty lets him go this time, I'm afraid Wang Kai will not be grateful for Your Majesty's kindness, and will still secretly obstruct TXT download in the future."
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded slowly and said, "Letian, later you go find Yuan Ji and ask him to arrange a deputy chief for Hedong County. This person must be smart, capable and thoughtful. After going to Hedong County, , Not only must we monitor Wang Kai’s every move, but we must also master all government affairs in Hedong County in the shortest possible time in order to be ready to take over Wang Kai’s position at any time.”
Letian bowed his hands and said, "Yes! Your Majesty!"
At this time, the maid in the palace had brought the meals into the study one by one. Tang Yin looked at Lotte and asked with a smile: "Have you had dinner?"
"not yet."
"Then let's eat together!" Tang Yin waved to Letian and asked him to sit next to him and read the full text.
Letian hesitated and said, "Didn't your Majesty ask me to find Prime Minister Shangguan?"
Tang Yin was happy and said, "It's not urgent. It's not too late to go after dinner."
Letian nodded, asked no more questions, and knelt down beside Tang Yin.
The maids served six dishes and one soup. There were not too many dishes, but there were quite a few. Each dish was exquisite and full of flavor and color. Tang Yin invited Yuan Wu, Yuan Biao, Ah San and Ah Si to sit down and eat together. Brother Shangguan and Tang Yin have long been accustomed to dining at the same table. Ah San and Ah Si still seemed a little awkward, and they were very reserved when they sat there. They rarely picked up food and just kept grilling rice.
During the meal, Tang Yin asked Letian: "The imperial decree should have been spread to Ningxia and Mozambique, right?"
Lotte swallowed the food in his mouth and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, but it will take a few days for it to reach the capitals of both countries."
"What's the reaction from Ningguo?"
"The imperial edict has not yet arrived, but the Ningguo court has already expressed its opposition." Letian smiled and said: "All the ministers of the Ningguo disapproved of Yan Chu coming to Yancheng to meet the Holy Spirit in person, saying that it was a trap designed by the king."
"Haha -" Tang Yin put down his bowl and chopsticks, looked up and laughed, and said: "They are quite smart. So, even if Yan Chu receives the imperial edict, he will not come?"
"This is not necessarily true. Yan Chu has not made his position clear yet. Who knows whether he will act on a whim after receiving the imperial edict?!" Letian shook his head and said.
Tang Yin chuckled and said, "He will definitely not come. He knows it is a fire pit. Only a fool would jump into it."
Lotte agreed with his statement, nodded in agreement, changed the subject, and smiled: "King Mo Shaofang is ready to leave."
Tang Yin was not surprised by this. Shao Fang came to Yancheng this time not only to express his loyalty to the emperor, but more importantly, to have final discussions with him about joining forces to attack Ning. He said: "You have to send a message to Baguan and inform General Yingbu that after Shao Fang enters our territory, he will send heavy troops to escort him. There must be no loss on the road."
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Letian looked serious.
Tang Yin looked around with a smile, waved his hand and said, "Don't just talk, eat, eat!"
Several of them had big appetites, and they had been marching and fighting for many years, so they ate very quickly. It didn't take long, and the food was exhausted after six plates. Shangguan Yuanbiao looked around and felt that there was nothing delicious, so he picked up the spoon and started to eat the soup. A bowl full of soup, he drank it all in two big gulps, and wanted to eat more. Suddenly, Shangguan Yuanbiao stiffened and paused for two seconds. He screamed as if he had seen a ghost, and put the soup in his hand. The soup bowl was thrown on the table.
Tang Yin and Letian, who were chatting while eating, were both startled. They looked at Shangguan Yuan Biao in surprise, wondering what was wrong with him.
"Big... King..." Yuan Biao picked up the chopsticks with trembling hands, picked up a long and white worm from the vegetable residue at the bottom of the bowl, and stammered: "This... what is this?"
Everyone was shocked when they saw it. Yuan Wu quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked nervously: "Where did you eat it from?"
"Soup... soup..."
Shangguan Yuanwu held the soup basin with both hands and looked inside. He didn't see anything. Then he poured all the soup in the soup basin onto the ground and looked inside again. Well, the meat and vegetables on the bottom were mixed with... There were more than a dozen white, long, soft things that resembled maggots. At this moment, Shangguan Yuanwu was also dumbfounded.
They had tested the food Tang Yin ate in advance and confirmed that it was non-toxic, but they did not take out all the food in the soup for inspection. Who knew there were so many disgusting bugs mixed in it.
"Well--"
Shangguan Yuanbiao hurriedly covered his mouth, forcing himself not to spit out the food he had just eaten. Shangguan Yuanwu broke out in cold sweat, looked at Tang Yin, and said, "Your Majesty, this soup..."
Tang Yin's expression remained unchanged. He picked up his chopsticks and picked up a long worm in the soup basin. He looked at it carefully, then put it down and said, "It's an earthworm."
"ah?"
Everyone was shocked again and said in unison: "Why are there so many earthworms in the soup?"
Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked, "You ask me?"
Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao looked at each other, stood up without saying a word, and walked out with long strides.
Tang Yin sighed secretly. The moment the Shangguan brothers went out, he stopped them and said, "There's no need to go to the kitchen to check. The chef doesn't have such courage, and no one in the entire palace has such courage, except for that one Except for the little girl.”
Yuan Wu and Yuan Biao said at the same time: "Princess Shaoxuan?"
Tang Yin picked up the earthworms in the soup basin with chopsticks and said quietly: "Who else but her would dare to do such a prank under my nose!"
"That's too much!" Shangguan Yuanbiao gritted his teeth angrily.
Tang Yin smiled bitterly, turned to look at the dumbfounded Lotte beside him, and asked, "Lotian, are you full?"
Even if he is not full, how can Lotte still have an appetite at this time? He shook his head, nodded again, and said, "Eat...I'm full..."
Tang Yin stood up and said: "Then let's do the work! Let Yuanji quickly select the candidate for the deputy head of Hedong. This matter cannot be delayed." It was about to launch a second war against Ning. If Hedong was not peaceful, in How can the army fighting in the front be stabilized?
Letian quickly cupped his hands and said, "Yes! I will inform Prime Minister Shangguan right away." As he spoke, he carefully looked at the soup basin on the table, opened his mouth, and before he could speak, Tang Yin had already spoken: "You don't have to worry about this, just go and do your work!"
"Yes! I'm going to leave!" Letian didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly exited the study.
Tang Yin said to Yuan Wu and Yuan Biao: "You two go to the kitchen and tell the chefs, maids, and guards there that no matter who they are in the future, as long as they have nothing to do with the kitchen, they are not allowed to approach. If something like this happens again, they will All heads are in danger!”
"Yes!" Yuan Wu and Yuan Biao agreed and left.
Tang Yin said to Ah San and Ah Si again: "Go and inform the palace guards to keep Shao Xuan's courtyard under strict supervision. From now on, she is strictly prohibited from going out."
Ah San and Ah Si responded and walked out quickly.
When there was no one around, Tang Yin walked out of the study and came to an old tree not far away. Seeing no one around him, he stretched out his hand to support the tree trunk, bent down, and with a loud sound, he started to vomit. Vomiting...
Before the guards of the royal palace launched an attack on the courtyard where Shao Xuan lived, Tang Yin came first.
The maid in the courtyard saw Tang Yin and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Tang Yin didn't even say anything. He walked through the crowd and strode towards the main room.
"Your Majesty, the princess has rested now..."
The maids still wanted to stop Tang Yin, but under his sharp gaze, the maids who came to stop him all retreated in fear. They were all from Mo Country. They followed Shao Xuan to Feng Country. They knew their scouting master very well. Just by looking at Tang Yin's angry look, they knew that Shao Xuan must have caused trouble again.
Bang!
Tang Yin walked to the main room and kicked the door open. After entering, he looked around and saw no sign of Shao Xuan, and then walked towards the bedroom inside. The two maids guarding the door of the bedroom were startled. Looking at Tang Yin striding over, they stammered and trembled: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess has divorced..."
Ignoring the two girls at all, without even taking a second look, Tang Yin walked closer and pushed the door open.
Looking inside, Shao Xuan was indeed in the bedroom. She was lying on the bed, wrapped in a quilt like a big rice dumpling.
Tang Yin ignored the obstruction of the two maids and walked directly to the bed. He looked down at the 'little man' on the bed, and the anger in his heart surged upwards.
Shao Xuan seemed to be sleeping soundly, but Tang Yin knew that she was not asleep at all, which could be judged from her messy breathing.
"Get up!" Tang Yin said coldly.
Of course Shao Xuan, who was pretending to sleep, knew why he was here. Just listening to Tang Yin's cold voice, she knew that he was going to explode. Shao Xuan was secretly happy in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, so she continued to pretend to be asleep.
Tang Yin's patience had reached its limit. If she were not the princess of Mo Country and Shao Fang's sister, he would have been unable to control himself and strangled Shao Xuan to death. He said coldly again: "Get up!"
"Your Majesty, the princess is indeed asleep..." Two maids reminded tremblingly from behind: "And the princess is not wearing clothes. Even if the king lets the princess get up,... she should avoid it first..."
No clothes? Tang Yin sneered, Shao Xuan had just crawled into bed after hearing that he had arrived, how could he not be wearing any clothes? Let's see how long you can keep pretending? !
Without any warning, Tang Yin reached out and grabbed the quilt, pulled it hard, and shouted at the same time: "You still want to deceive me..."
call!
"ah--"
As the quilt was pulled apart, Shao Xuan's scream interrupted his next words. He looked down and his fair and handsome face turned red. Tang Yin never expected that Shao Xuan was really naked. Her petite body was only wearing a bellyband and a pair of underwear, and a large area of flawless white skin was exposed under his eyes.
