Episode 10 Chapter 13
Chapter 13
Tang Yin walked into Yin Rou's bedroom. The guards at the gate did not dare to stop him, but bowed and greeted him.
It was spring, and the courtyard of Yin Rou's bedroom was full of peach blossoms. Looking up, it was pink. The breeze blew and the petals flew all over the sky, which was very charming.
Tang Yin walked through the courtyard and came to the door. The maids serving outside hurriedly bowed. Tang Yin nodded and asked, "Is the princess in the room?"
"Yes! Your Majesty! I will report to the princess right away." As she spoke, a maid turned around and went in.
Tang Yin waved his hand to stop her and said, "No need." As he said that, he went straight into the room.
The princess's bedroom, Tang Yin entered directly without reporting. This was no longer a question of whether it was impolite or not. If he investigated it further, he could be directly punished. But the maids were all elegant, especially the maids who served Yin Rou, who were basically selected by Tang Yin. How could they dare to stop Tang Yin, and they were no longer surprised by such things.
When Tang Yin saw Yin Rou, she was standing in front of the window sill in the inner room, looking out the window with a blurred look, and was in a daze. Tang Yin did not speak immediately, nor did he walk forward, but leaned against the door and looked at Yin Rou silently.
As Yin Zhun said, Yin Rou had reached the age of marriage. Not only did her figure become taller and slender, but also more exquisite and graceful, and her temperament had matured a lot. The only thing that had not changed was her beautiful face, which was still exquisite and could not find even the slightest flaw.
No matter how long I had known Yin Rou and how long I had been together with her, every time I saw her, anyone could not help but feel amazed.
Yin Rou was thinking about things, looking at the scenery outside the window in a daze, while Tang Yin was thinking about Yin Rou and looking at her in a daze. One of them stood in the room and the other stood at the door. No one spoke, and time passed slowly in silence.
After an unknown amount of time, a spring breeze blew in from the window, bringing in several petals. The petals slapped on Yin Rou's face, waking her up, and Tang Yin also recovered from his daze. He slowly walked forward, stretched out his hand to pick off a petal that fell on Yin Rou's hair, and asked softly, "What are you thinking about?"
Yin Rou's body trembled, and it was only then that she suddenly realized that there was an extra person in the room, and it was the person she missed. After a moment of confusion, Yin Rou soon calmed down from her surprise. She smiled and asked, "Yin, when did you come?"
"It's been a while."
"Why didn't you call me?"
"I saw that you were thinking about something, and I couldn't bear to disturb you." Tang Yin approached Yin Rou. Even though the latter had grown much taller than before, she still looked petite in front of Tang Yin, and the top of her head only reached Tang Yin's earlobe. He lowered his head, sniffed the fragrance of hair that permeated his spleen and lungs, and asked again: "You haven't told me what you are thinking about yet."
Yin Rou's jade face was slightly red, and she turned her face away unnaturally, muttering in a low voice: "I won't tell you."
Seeing her shy look, Tang Yin laughed heartily and asked shamelessly: "Are you thinking about me?"
Yin Rou didn't answer, but her more red face told Tang Yin that his guess was right.
Such an answer made Tang Yin feel warm and sweet in his heart. He pulled Yin Rou to sit down and asked: "Why didn't you go to Lingwu College today?"
Yin Rou was one of the first batch of students at Fengguo Lingwu College. Unfortunately, she didn't have the talent to practice Lingwu. After studying at Lingwu College for a while, the novelty gradually turned into boredom. In addition, most of the students around her were people who were trying to curry favor with the powerful. Yin Rou's visit to Lingwu College gradually became a three-day fishing and two-day drying net.
Because she was a princess of the empire, her status was more noble than Tang Yin, a foreign prince, and the academy did not dare to restrict her. Even the rigid dean of the academy, Zhang Xiu, turned a blind eye.
"Learning spiritual martial arts is so boring!" Yin Rou said half seriously and half coquettishly.
It is very boring, but it is a magic weapon to defeat the enemy. Tang Yin did not force Yin Rou, and said with a smile: "Rou'er, if you want to learn, you can learn. If you don't want to learn, you don't have to go."
Yin Rou could feel his consideration and love in Tang Yin's voice, and felt a warm feeling in her heart. After a moment of silence, she changed the subject and asked, "I heard that you are going to Besa to marry the princess of Besa?"
Tang Yin expected Yin Rou to ask about this matter. He nodded slowly and said, "Feng Kingdom wants to help Tia and fight against Du Ji. If Besa stands on Du Ji's side, it will be extremely disadvantageous to Feng Kingdom. The best way to win Besa is marriage. Going to Besa to marry Xiao Na this time is also helpless."
"Xiao Na?"
"The princess of Besa."
"Oh!" Yin Rou responded softly, and then couldn't help her curiosity and asked, "Did you know her before?"
Tang Yin did not hide it and said frankly, "Yes, when I started the army to attack Zhong Tian, Besa reinforced me with tens of thousands of cavalry. At that time, Xiao Na was the commander of these tens of thousands of Besa cavalry."
After hearing this, Yin Rou's worries deepened. It turned out that they not only knew each other, but also fought side by side. The relationship between them must be extraordinary. She whispered, "Is she...pretty?"
No matter how slow Tang Yin was in his feelings, he knew that when a woman asked this question, he had to answer carefully. Without thinking, he said, "Princess Xiaona is not as pretty as Rou'er." This was Tang Yin's truth. In his heart, Yin Rou was the most beautiful woman in the world, and Yin Rou's position could not be replaced by anyone.
I don't know if Tang Yin's words were sincere or false, but Yin Rou felt a lot more comfortable because of his words. As a princess, Yin Rou has seen too many things about marriage, and she also understands that Tang Yin may not be. I really want to marry Shawna, but I have no choice. She was silent for a while and then asked: "Then she...she..."
Yin Rou hesitated for a long time and did not say anything further.
Tang Yin didn't know what made it so difficult for Yin Rou to talk about it. He said softly: "What about her?"
"Will she...become your princess?" Who will become Tang Yin's princess, or whether Yin Rou can become Tang Yin's princess in the future? This is not only the issue that Yin Zhun is most concerned about, but also Yin Rou is extremely concerned about.
Tang Yin's face straightened, he looked directly at Yin Rou and said, "I said a long time ago that I only have one princess and one wife, and that is you. There will be no others."
Yin Rou breathed in. This was the first time that Tang Yin had clearly stated in front of her that he wanted to marry her as his princess. Her heart was filled with joy and sweetness, and she was filled with a deep sense of happiness. The etiquette in the palace for many years made Yin Rou not show the ecstasy in her heart to the computer. Her expression remained calm. She suppressed her excitement and asked: "Xiao Na is the princess of a country, how can she be willing to be a concubine?"
Tang Yin said: "I will make her my wife."
Yin Rou was stunned and said in confusion: "But you already have three wives."
Tang Yin said nonchalantly: "Rules are set by people, and naturally they can be changed. Having one more wife and one less wife is not that important."
According to the etiquette at that time, there should be three wives for the prince, but Tang Yin never cared about these etiquette.
Hearing what he said, Yin Rou also smiled, and the melancholy on her face disappeared. Seeing that Tang Yin was still sitting there after a long time, Yin Rou said, "I'll have someone bring some refreshments over."
Under Yin Rou's notification, it didn't take long for the palace maids to bring nine plates of snacks and a pot of scented tea. Tang Yin and Yin Rou chatted happily while eating.
When he was with Yin Rou, Tang Yin would always forget the time unconsciously. When he realized that he had stayed too long, it was already evening. At this time, even Tang Yin could not stay in the princess's palace anymore. After all, this is related to Yin Rou's reputation. He reluctantly stood up and said goodbye. Yin Rou escorted him out of the palace. Before leaving, Yin Rou asked, "Yin, when are you leaving?"
Tang Yin thought for a while and said, "If nothing happens, we will leave within three days."
"Oh!" Yin Rou responded softly, the lonely expression flashed across her face, and then she said with a faint smile: "The road is long, so be careful on the way."
Tang Yin raised his hand, caressed Yin Rou's cheek, nodded and said, "I will." After saying that, he took back his hand and strode away without any further delay. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be unable to resist leaving.
After leaving the palace, Tang Yin returned to his palace. Not long after he entered the study and sat down, a guard came outside to report that Cheng Jin had something urgent to see him.
Tang Yin was startled, raised his head and said, "Let him come closer."
"yes!"
Not long after, Cheng Jin hurriedly approached. When he came to Tang Yin, he first bowed his hands and saluted, and then whispered: "Your Majesty, the two assassins imprisoned in the prison... are all dead."
"What?" When Tang Yin heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and asked in disbelief: "They are all dead? How did they die?"
"After examination, it has been confirmed that he died of poisoning." Cheng Jin lowered his head and answered.
"Poisoned to death? How could a good person be poisoned?" As soon as Tang Yin finished speaking, he immediately added: "It must be a spy among the jailers who went against the trend and poisoned the assassin's food. Cheng Jin, you send someone immediately , bring all the jailers under my control."
Cheng Jin hurriedly said: "My subordinates have already taken care of it, but among the jailers, the only one missing is the man who delivered meals to the assassin at noon today."
From this point of view, it is very clear that the missing jailer is most likely a spy. Tang Yin frowned and asked, "I don't care what method you use, in short, find this person out for me."
"Yes, yes! I have just sent people to search for it, and there should be news soon."
As soon as Cheng Jin finished speaking, the guards outside came closer, first saluted Tang Yin, and then whispered to Cheng Jin: "General Cheng, the brother who has a secret assassin outside wants to see you."
Hearing this, Cheng Jin's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Your Majesty, there must be news."
"Bring him closer quickly."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The guard responded, walked out quickly, and then brought in a strong man in casual clothes. After the big man came closer, he stepped in and saluted Tang Yin and Cheng Jin, and then said: "The jailer the general asked his subordinates to find has been found, but... just..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that this person is dead."
