Chapter 790
Just like what Cai Gui thought, Tang Yin really wanted to find a puppet in Ningdi to take care of Ningdi's affairs on his behalf, at least on the surface. Cai Song, who was born in a prominent family, was the father-in-law of the emperor, and was timid and afraid of death, was the most suitable candidate in Tang Yin's mind. TXT download.
And Cai Song did not disappoint him and accepted his request with peace of mind. In Tang Yin's mind, Cai Song was more suitable because he was stupid enough and easier to be controlled by himself.
Having said what he should say, Tang Yin did not linger any longer. He jumped on his horse and said to Cai Song: "Lord Cai, when you enter the palace tomorrow, I will confer you a specific official position and give you specific instructions on TXT download."
"Yes, yes, yes! I will enter the palace to meet the king early tomorrow morning!"
"There are still many nobles in Liangzhou who have not made it clear whether they are willing to submit to the emperor and to me. I don't want to kill more people. When you enter the palace tomorrow, it's best to bring these people. If someone does not show up, I will regard them as traitors and punish them severely!"
Cai Song raised the corner of his mouth and smiled unconsciously. He agreed more straightforwardly and said yes repeatedly. According to Tang Yin, whoever he brought into the palace would be able to survive, otherwise he would die. Their lives were in his hands. This was a great opportunity to earn benefits and favors.
Tang Yin nodded and said, "Okay, there's nothing else to do. Lord Cai, go back to your house and rest."
"I, your old minister, respectfully send you off!" Cai Song now looked like a respectful and respectful minister in front of Tang Yin.
Tang Yin turned his horse to go, and his eyes just happened to sweep over Cai Youling. He immediately pulled the reins and said, "Lord Cai, I and your daughter Miss Youling are old friends. I don't think Lord Cai would mind if I took Miss Youling away to reminisce about the past, right?"
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked. Tang Yin and Cai Youling were old friends. How could this be possible? When did they know each other? How come they had never heard of it before. Including Cai Song, everyone's eyes turned to Cai Youling.
Cai Youling didn't expect Tang Yin to directly say that he wanted to take her away. She couldn't guess what Tang Yin was going to do. To retaliate against her? Or was he really going to reminisce about the past? She hung her head and said nothing, but her silent attitude just showed that she and Tang Yin had something to do.
Cai Song reacted quickly, and was only slightly stunned for a moment, then he laughed and nodded repeatedly, saying: "The king and my daughter are old acquaintances. This is an honor for my Cai family. How can an old minister oppose the king and my daughter reminiscing about the past!" It would be best if Tang Yin could take You Ling as a concubine, then the relationship between the Cai family and Tang Yin would be completely solid, and he could continue to be the father-in-law of the country... This is what the old man really thinks.
After getting Cai Song's approval, Tang Yin smiled at Cai You Ling and said, "Miss You Ling, please!"
Cai You Ling knew that she should refuse Tang Yin's invitation, but looking at the smile on his face, she seemed to be attracted by some kind of magic and walked forward involuntarily.
When she passed by Cai Gui, the latter quietly grabbed her wrist and asked in a low voice: "Little sister, do you... really know him?"
Cai You Ling is the youngest daughter of the Cai family. From childhood to adulthood, the Cai family has always cherished her very much.
She said without hesitation: "I used to be his captive..." and almost took his life.
Hearing her say this, Cai Gui also remembered that when Youling followed the Zhan brothers to attack Fengguo, she was indeed captured by the Feng army, and the commander of the Feng army at that time was Tang Yin. It was a bit far-fetched to say that the two were old friends, but it was definitely true that they knew each other. Cai Gui looked at Cai Youling with concern, but the hand holding her white wrist slowly loosened.
Cai Youling walked up to Tang Yin, raised her head, looked at him in a daze, and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
Tang Yin smiled and said, "The palace."
Ningguo Palace.
When Cai Youling followed Tang Yin to the palace, people came and went inside, and there were Feng soldiers everywhere.
Countless Feng army soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield. People gathered the bodies scattered all over the palace together, and the bodies were piled up one after another, forming a mountain of corpses. Not far away, there were many palace maids standing. People were trembling with fear and hugged each other, surrounded by ferocious Feng army soldiers.
Looking further away, the concubines and children of Yan Chu were gathered together. The Feng army was not polite to these people. Soldiers would come forward from time to time, pull out a row of people from the crowd, force them to kneel on the ground, and then the executioner would swing his knife and chop them, and then drag the bodies away and throw them on the pile of corpses like dead dogs.
This was no longer a palace, it was simply a hell on earth full of blood and death.
When walking by, Tang Yin looked straight ahead, as if he didn't see the tragic scene around him. Cai Youling's heart was in her throat. She asked in a trembling voice: "You...are you going to kill all the Yan family?"
Tang Yin said expressionlessly: "If I don't kill them today, they will find ways to kill me tomorrow. Today's womanly kindness will only lead to more killing tomorrow. So, we must do things thoroughly and cut the grass to the root!"
He said lightly, but Cai Youling was sweating profusely. Whether she looked at Tang Yin from a hostile standpoint or not, it was hard for people to think that he was a good person.
She pondered for a long time before asking again: "Then why did you let my elder sister go?"
Tang Yin smiled and said: "First of all, your sister is very lucky that she didn't give Yan Chu a child. Secondly, she is timid and will not dare to come to me for revenge in the future."
Cai Youling was silent. Although Tang Yin didn't have much contact with his sister, his evaluation of her was surprisingly accurate. Youlian is timid, cowardly, and happy-go-lucky. Maybe it was because of this that Yan Chu decided to make her his concubine!
The two were walking towards the main hall. Qiu Zhen walked quickly from the side. When he got closer, he saw a strange and beautiful girl beside Tang Yin. He frowned secretly and asked, "Your Majesty, this is..."
"The daughter of the Cai family, Cai Youling." Tang Yin said to Cai Youling, "This is the left prime minister of the Feng Kingdom, Qiu Zhen."
"I've met Prime Minister Qiu." Cai Youling politely wished Qiu Zhen a blessing.
Qiu Zhen was stunned for a moment and said nothing more. He turned to Tang Yin and said, "Your Majesty, the palace's treasury has been opened. I think your Majesty should go and have a look." As he spoke, Qiu Zhen's lips twitched unconsciously.
Tang Yin didn't see how much silver there was in the treasury of King Ning's Palace, but he could guess that the amount was huge. He smiled slightly and said, "Let me keep it under strict supervision first. I will go there later."
"Yes!" Qiu Zhen responded, bowed and retreated.
Tang Yin led Cai Youling into the main hall. Cai Youling couldn't help but look around.
This is the place where the monarchs and ministers of the Ning Kingdom hold court meetings, and it is also the place of highest authority in the Ning Kingdom. Although Cai Youling said that she was noble, she never entered the main hall. She usually only went to the harem to visit her sister.
"How is it here?" Tang Yin asked.
Cai Youling was stunned, looked away, looked at Tang Yin, and asked, "What is it like?"
Tang Yin shrugged and said, "This place is very grand! It is much larger and more gorgeous than the court hall in Feng Kingdom!" While speaking, he walked to the table. The furnishings on it were either made of jade or made of jade. It is made of gold and silver. Even the base of the throne is made of pure gold. This is simply unbelievable in the Feng Kingdom.
"It is such a pity that such a powerful country, such a rich and vast country, Ning, should be governed by Yan Chu and waste all natural resources."
Listening to his contempt and ridicule for the country's monarch, Cai Youling instinctively felt a sense of rejection. She sneered and said, "Does it mean that it is not a waste of natural resources and it is not a pity for you to govern?"
"Of course!" Tang Yin turned around, sat on the king's chair, holding the handle inlaid with gems, and said proudly: "In fact, I am already sitting here, right?"
Cai Youling was silent. Tang Yin was so arrogant that it was annoying, but he had to admit that he was capable of arrogance.
After being silent for a while, she asked in a bad tone: "What is your purpose for coming to me here? Do you want revenge? I have fallen into your hands now. You can kill or chop me as you please!" Anyway, it's not the first place. It fell into your hands for the first time. Cai Youling added something in his heart.
Tang Yin smiled leisurely and said: "Don't worry, I don't mean to kill you, I just think... the palace is so big, once I return to Fengdi, it would be a pity to leave it idle, so I want to find a mistress for it."
His meaning was very clear. Cai Youling was not a fool, so of course he could understand. She asked in surprise: "You want me to live here?"
"That's right."
Cai Youling laughed, angrily, and asked sarcastically: "Then in what capacity do I want to live here?"
Tang Yin said calmly: "My woman."
In fact, Cai Youling has been his woman for a long time. Now, he just brings her back to his side.
Cai Youling didn't expect Tang Yin to speak so directly. She was stunned for a moment. A blush gradually appeared on her face. Seeing Tang Yin's confident look that everything was under control, she didn't get angry at all and said seriously: "I didn't agree. I want to be your woman..."
Before she could finish speaking, Tang Yin interrupted: "But in fact, you already were, as early as in Feng Kingdom."
Cai Youling's heartbeat accelerated. She didn't know whether it was because of shame or because she was angry with him. She pointed at Tang Yin and shouted: "You..."
"But it's strange. It seems that your father doesn't know about our relationship. After returning to Ningguo, you hid it very well!"
"Stop talking!" Cai Youling almost lost her mind and rushed to Tang Yin, her eyes about to spit out fire.
Tang Yin still had a calm face. He stretched out his hand to pull her to sit beside him, and said kindly: "You have no room to refute me. After all, the lives of your family are in my hands. In addition, living in It’s much safer here than living outside.”
Being so close to Tang Yin, Cai Youling's heart beat faster. At this time, she even began to hate herself. Her reason told her that she should hate Tang Yin, and she should stay away from him and completely cut off the relationship. However, her reason told her Unable to control her own heart.
