Chapter 367 Ziyang Haochun said in a deep voice: "It is impossible for Lord Zhang Song Zhang to be Zhong Tian's cronies, I can use my head as a guarantee for this, Lord Tang only convicted Lord Zhang based on the confession of an enemy general, it is too hasty" "Is it sloppy" Tang Yin smiled, laughing evilly, he gently tapped the blood book on the table with his fingers, and said slowly: "In my opinion, this is ironclad evidence, and there is no need to check it again."
General Ziyang's guarantee should be left to others" After speaking, he turned his head to look at the courtyard and said indifferently: "What are you waiting for to be executed?"
The executioners don't care if you're guilty or not, as long as there is an order from above, they will carry it out.
Several executioners raised the ghost head knives in their hands, aimed them at the necks of Zhang Song and his family, and slashed them viciously. strike With a crisp sound, Zhang Song's crying and the crying of his family members stopped abruptly, several heads rolled to the ground, and the blood shot from the broken neck spurted far away.
The executioner did not pause, and immediately walked behind Zhang Song's other family members, wheeled up the big knife and slashed down, only blinking an eye, Zhang Song's family of more than 20 men, women and children, all of whom were in different places, died unexpectedly.
"Ahh Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun who were sitting in the hall saw it clearly, and they all gasped in their hearts, no matter what, Zhang Song was also an official who could enter the court first, and he was killed by Tang Yin like this, and the whole family was beheaded, how could they not be surprised and shocked in their hearts.
The soldiers of the Heavenly Abyss loaded the corpses and severed heads on the ground onto the wagons and covered the ground with blood stains with loess.
Tang Yin turned his head with a smile, his gaze swept over Liang Xing and the others, and said: "But all the officials who were captured by Zhong Tian and were not executed are suspected of collaborating with the enemy, in order to ensure the safety and stability of the capital, such black sheep must be strictly investigated, and no one can be spared." ” Hearing this, Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun were all trembling.
Although Tang Yin's words did not name names, to them, it seemed to them that he was alluding to himself.
"Lord Tang" At this time, Ziyang Haochun's momentum also softened, and he looked at Tang Yin dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.
Tang Yin smiled back and said, "Don't misunderstand, three adults, I'm definitely not saying that the three are suspected of collaborating with the enemy.
The three adults are my important ministers and loyal ministers, and they are also the pillars of the imperial court, how can they have an affair with a national thief like Zhong Tian?"
"Yes, yes."
Ziyang Haochun swallowed and foamed, and couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat secretly.
"Come on, General Ziyang, drink, the lower official will give you a glass" As he spoke, Tang Yin raised his glass at Ziyang Haochun.
Ziyang Haochun didn't want to drink at all at this time, but the scene of Zhang Song being executed by the whole family was still vivid, he couldn't help but shiver, picked up the cup, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Lord Tang is polite."
The blood book that Tang Yin took was not written by any Peng general, Zhang Song had an affair with Zhong Tian, and it was completely Tang Yin's loss.
He was afraid that Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun would be pressed on his head after inviting them back to the capital to reorganize the imperial court, so he wrote, directed, and acted in this play, the purpose of which was to let Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun understand who was the master and who was from, and let them know who the person who really held the power of life and death was.
As for Zhang Song, he was an unlucky guy who was chosen by Tang Yin.
Tang Yin can choose him, he also has his own considerations, Zhang Song is a loyal minister of the Wind Country, but also a loyal minister of Zhanhua, when Zhong Tian called the king, Zhang Song would rather die against, Tang Yin felt that if he was called the king in the future, Zhang Song would not support it, rather than leaving this person to become his own stumbling block, it is better to find a reason to get rid of it first, which can also play the role of killing chickens and respecting monkeys, killing two birds with one stone.
Tang Yin's idea was appreciated by Qiu Zhen and supported by the generals of the Tianyuan Army, Zhang Song was in a daze under this circumstance, and he was infamous as an adulterous traitor until his death.
Tang Yin's self-composed play really shocked Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun, especially Ziyang Haochun, the majesty just now disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by trembling, like sitting on pins and needles next to Tang Yin, and now he has once again seen Tang Yin's methods, as well as the cruelty and ruthlessness that come out of his bones.
This meal, Tang Yin and his generals and strategists all ate very happily, but Liang Xing and Ziyang Haochun didn't know how to eat.
Both of them looked forward to the banquet ending early and returning to the mansion as soon as possible.
With the return of Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun, the three magnates to the capital, the new imperial court of the Wind Country was officially established, and the former ministers of the Wind Country who were originally dismissed by Zhong Tian were all reinstated, and most of them were also promoted, and the generals and strategists of the Tianyuan Army were promoted the most.
Originally, the Tianyuan Army belonged to the county army, and its generals and strategists could only be regarded as generals and officials of a county, but now with the formation of the new imperial court, the Tianyuan Army has jumped from the county army to the central army of the new wind country, and the official positions of its generals and strategists have naturally been promoted several levels, and the title has also been promoted.
However, Tang Yin, the head of Tianyuan County, the commander-in-chief of the Tianyuan Army has not moved, and he is still the head of the county, so the generals and strategists under his command are even higher than his official rank.
It's not that the new court doesn't want to give Tang Yin a promotion, but it can't find a suitable official position for him, with Tang Yin's merits, he should be ranked first among the ministers, but now that the three main positions of the left minister, the right minister, and the general are already occupied, Tang Yin can't be promoted, and then one of the three of Liang Xing, Wuyu, and Ziyang Haochun will be squeezed down, of course, Tang Yin himself will not agree to do this.
So his promotion was put on hold for the time being, as for Tang Yin himself, he was not in a hurry, what he wanted to seek was the throne, as for the official position, it didn't matter if he was high or low, as long as he could firmly grasp the military power and control the overall situation, his name was dispensable.
At the same time as the establishment of the new imperial court, it sent letters to the heads of the seven counties of Tai'an, Shangqing, Gaoyang, Lingdong, Lingnan, Bucheon, and Pingxi, and summoned the heads of the seven counties to immediately enter the capital.
Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun all made promises in their letters, promising that as long as the county leaders of each county agreed to join the city, they would be loyal to the past.
In the name of Tang Yin, the heads of the seven counties were convened, and the seven county capitals did not dare to come, and now, the new imperial court formed by Liang Xing, Wuyu, and Ziyang Haochun sent a letter again, if they do not enter the capital again, it is equivalent to not recognizing the current new imperial court, and it is equivalent to no longer recognizing the country of wind.
This is something that the heads of the seven counties cannot afford.
Moreover, the prestige of Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun is much heavier than that of Tang Yin, and the heads of the seven counties also trust them more.
After receiving the letter, the heads of the seven counties immediately wrote a reply, saying that they would set off and enter the capital immediately.
Half a month later, the seven counties rushed to Yancheng first, and the heads of the four counties of Tianyuan County, Guannan County, Lehu County, and Jinguang County came before them.
Now, the fifteen counties of the Wind Country, in addition to the four counties south of Yancheng, the other eleven county heads have gathered in Yancheng.
Before officially entering the court, the night before, Tang Yin invited eleven county leaders to his mansion for a banquet in his private name.
Now, the mansion he occupied has also been renamed Tang Mansion, outside the gate, there are many soldiers, and when you look up, the black and oppressive wind army is almost filling the street, and there is no relaxed and joyful atmosphere of a banquet in the air, but only a solemn and solemn atmosphere.
When the county leaders came to the banquet, they saw such a scene.
In addition to the county heads of the four counties of Tianyuan, Guannan, Jinguang, and Lehu, the hearts of the other seven county leaders were all trembling.
There are already a lot of wind troops outside the mansion, and there are more wind troops in the house, in the courtyard, only the middle aisle does not stand people, there are wind army formations on both sides, and the elite of the wind army standing in the mansion are almost a height, wearing black helmets and black armor, red tassels on the head, red daze on the back, guns in their hands, knives on their waists, and longbows on their backs.
The seven county chiefs kept wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads as they walked inside, feeling that they were not here for a banquet, but more like they were here to die.
They are all people who have seen strong winds and waves, but at this time, their legs and stomachs are still twisting and tendoning, and their hearts are in their throats.
Finally passed through the phalanx of many wind armies, came to the door of the lobby, and before entering, someone inside laughed twice, and then, from the hall walked out a young man who was nearly thirty years old, this person was dressed in official uniforms, thin, handsome, between raising his hands and feet, naturally exuding an elegant atmosphere.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please, in the lower Shangguan Yuanji," the young man smiled and arched his hand and saluted everyone.
It turned out that this person was Shangguan Yuanji, and the seven county heads had all heard the name of Shangguan Yuanji.
Although Shangguan Yuanji is not a general who can charge into battle and attack the city, but his contribution to the Tianyuan Army may not be comparable to that of several generals trapped together, Shangguan Yuanji is actually the head of the four counties of Tianyuan, Guannan, Jinguang, and Lehu, governing the four counties, and continuously delivering troops, military materials, and food for the Tianyuan Army fighting in the front, and his role is not something that others can replace.
"It turned out to be Lord Shangguan, disrespectful, disrespectful" The heads of the seven counties hurriedly bowed their hands and respectfully returned the salute to Shangguan Yuanji.
"Hehe, don't be polite, come on, please inside, your lordship has been waiting for you for a long time" Shangguan Yuanji turned sideways and let the heads of the seven counties into the hall.
At this time, the banquet in the hall was ready, Tang Yin sat in the center, and more than 20 tables and mats were placed on both sides, except for the seats of the seven county heads, the others were already seated.
Seeing that the capital of the county came in, Tang Yin, who was sitting on the mat, did not get up to greet him, but just waved his hand and said with a smile: "The adults are willing to come to the banquet with their faces, which really makes the cold house shine."
Tang Yin's words were nothing, just polite words, but after hearing them, the seven county leaders trembled in their hearts.
Tang Yin had written to them before, inviting them to enter the capital, but none of them came at that time, and now when they saw Tang Yin, the seven of them were inevitably embarrassed, and they also felt that he had something to say.
After being stunned for a while, the seven people hurriedly bowed down and saluted, and said, "Lord Tang, it's too late for the official to pay a visit, and I hope Lord Tang will see more cold":
