Chapter 696 Tang Yin was also somewhat dissatisfied with Lei Zhen, he repeatedly asked him to resign, is it so difficult for him to accept that he is a jackal, tiger and leopard and cannot join the army Seeing that his face was not good, Tang Zhong didn't dare to say more, bowed down, and responded: "It's the king."
Tang Yin didn't want to see Lei Zhen, and the latter couldn't force it, and without Tang Yin's permission, he didn't dare to leave Yancheng without permission.
Early the next morning, Lei Zhen came to the palace again and asked to see Tang Yin.
This time, Tang Yin agreed to him.
When Lei Zhen saw Tang Yin, the latter was eating, and he was at the same table as Qiu Zhen, the prime minister of Zuo.
Lei Zhen greeted the two respectfully, Tang Yin looked at him and smiled, and asked, "I heard that you waited for this king all afternoon yesterday."
"Yes, King."
Lei Zhen lowered his head and said.
"This king entered the palace yesterday to discuss state affairs with the Son of Heaven, and when he came back in the evening, he was too tired, you won't blame this king," Tang Yin asked with a smile.
"The villain doesn't dare."
Lei Zhen's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly bowed his hand again.
Even if he was very dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't dare to admit it frankly in front of Tang Yin.
"That's good."
Tang Yin beckoned and said, "Sit down and eat together."
Ah Lei Zhen wondered if he had heard it wrong, what was Tang Yin's identity, he was the king of a country, and he wanted to eat with a commoner like himself, it was incredible.
Just when he was stunned, Tang Yin had already ordered the servants below to prepare another set of utensils.
"King, villain" Lei Zhen came back to his senses and hurriedly wanted to excuse himself, Tang Yin waved his hand and smiled, interrupted his words, and said: "You came so early, you must not have eaten breakfast, it hurts your body not to eat breakfast, and after eating, this king will take you to meet two people." ” Lei Zhen was stunned for a moment, and asked: "I don't know who the king wants to take the villain to meet."
Tang Yin pretended to smile mysteriously and said, "You will naturally know when we meet." ” The breakfast in the palace is very good, with refreshing side dishes, delicious clear soup, and melt-in-your-mouth snacks, but Lei Zhen doesn't know the taste.
Eating at the same table with Tang Yin, he seemed very nervous, and he was also full of curiosity, he didn't know who Tang Yin was going to take him to meet, in Yancheng, he didn't remember that he had old acquaintances. finally finished this breakfast, and when he saw Tang Yin standing up, Lei Zhen hurriedly followed.
Tang Yin smiled at him and said, "The two people that this king took you to see must be the ones you want to see the most." ” Hearing this, Lei Zhen became even more curious, and he didn't know what medicine was sold in Tang Yin's gourd.
Qiu Zhen had been smiling and silent all the time, and now he was looking forward to the scene when Lei Zhen suddenly saw his parents in Yancheng.
Tang Yin ordered Tang Zhong to prepare a horse, he was going to travel, and he also asked people to go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to inform Shangguan Yuanji and let him go to the early court instead of him.
Out of the palace, Tang Yin, Qiu Zhen, and Lei Zhen rode horses and went straight to the homes of Lei's father and Lei's mother.
Along the way, Lei Zhen was extremely curious, and wanted to ask several times, but when he saw Tang Yin's unfathomable appearance, he swallowed back the question that came to his mouth.
Anyway, he had already made up his mind, no matter who Tang Yin let him see, he would take this opportunity today to ask Tang Yin to resign and return to his hometown.
After walking for less than half an hour, Tang Yin grabbed the reins in front of a big mansion, stopped, turned back to Lei Zhen and said, "It's here." ” Lei Zhen raised his eyes to see, although this house is not a mansion, but it occupies a lot of land, looking up, the plaque above the door of the mansion has two big characters written on it, which makes Lei Zhen shocked.
There are not many people with the surname Lei in the world, Tang Yin brought himself to this Lei Mansion, could it be that its owner is his relative But after thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong, my relatives were also commoners, and I had never heard of anyone having such a big house in the capital.
Seeing that Lei Zhen's face was cloudy and sunny, and uncertain, Tang Yin smiled secretly in his heart, turned over and dismounted, shook his head and said: "Lei Zhen, you don't have to be restrained when you get here, let's go in with this king and have a look."
Lei Zhen followed behind Tang Yin blankly and walked into the mansion.
At this time, the door of the mansion had already been opened, and more than a dozen servants were separated on both sides, and when they saw Tang Yin coming over, people knelt on the ground one after another, and said in unison: "King" Tang Yin didn't stop and went straight to the lobby inside.
There were three people in the lobby, an old couple with gray sideburns, and a middle-aged man in official uniform.
Seeing Tang Yin striding in from outside, the middle-aged official hurriedly whispered to the old couple: "The king has arrived, hurry up and give a salute" "The little man has seen the king," the old couple knelt down and kowtowed, and their voices trembled violently when they spoke.
Tang Yin stepped forward, helped the second old man up with a smile, and said, "The two old men don't have to be polite."
Lei Zhen, who followed Tang Yin recently, raised his eyes to look inside, but others didn't see it clearly, only the old couple clearly.
His eyes widened violently, wondering if he was dazzled, he couldn't help but force his eyes, and looked at it again, yes, this old couple was not someone else, it was his old father and mother.
Although he didn't wear the shabby clothes in Pingli, but changed into brocade clothes, Lei Zhen would not admit his mistakes to his parents.
He was stunned for a long time before he subconsciously exclaimed: "Daddy, how come your second elder is here?"
Diametrically opposed to Lei Zhen, Lei Father and Lei Mother did not have the slightest look of surprise on their faces, first looked at Tang Yin cautiously, and then showed displeasure, and said: "What did you say this kid, this is your home, we are not here."
"Home" Lei Zhen felt that his nerves were about to go out of sorts, when did he have a home in Yancheng, and when did his parents arrive in Yancheng, why didn't he hear any news about it Seeing Lei Zhen standing in place for a long time and couldn't come back to his senses, Tang Yin chuckled, Qiu Zhen walked to Lei Zhen's side, and said: "Lei Zhen, you are now the viscount of Gale, this mansion was rewarded to you by the king, and your uncle and aunt were also ordered by the king to receive the capital."
How can the parents of my Dafeng Tang Viscount be ordinary hunters anymore, not to mention that my uncle and parents have worked hard all their lives, and now they should also enjoy the blessings. ” Ah, now Lei Zhen fully understood, no wonder the king wanted to grant himself the title of viscount, it turned out to be premeditated, to take the opportunity to stuff himself into a mansion, and tie himself to the capital, what the king said at the beginning was that it was completely deceitful to let himself stay after the competition, and he didn't plan to let himself go at all.
It's good now, my parents have been picked up, and I have returned to my home, this is my home.
Of course, Lei Zhen felt uncomfortable in his heart for Tang Yin to deceive himself like this, but Tang Yin was willing to spend so much effort to keep himself, which made him extremely moved, especially when Tang Yin brought Lei's father and Lei Mother to Yancheng, which made Lei Zhen particularly heartwarming, I am afraid that except for Tang Yin, no monarch can spend so much effort on him, a commoner.
He took a deep breath, walked slowly to his parents, bent his knees, fell to the ground with a plop, and said, "Father, mother, my son has asked your second elder to say goodbye."
After a pause, he asked again: "During this time, are you still used to living in Yancheng?"
After asking, he immediately regretted it, and felt that he was asking nonsense.

Just looking at the red face and smiling appearance of the second elder, he already knew that his parents must have lived very comfortably in Yancheng during this time, and they were very happy, not forced or held hostage by the king.
"Good, good."
The old lady smiled first: "It's big and comfortable here, there are food, clothes, and use, there are more than ten people alone, and the neighborhoods on the left and right are also very good."
Son, you can have a chance, your father and mother are happy for you, these are all given to you by the king, you have to do things for the king."
Lei's father and Lei's mother are both coarse people, and they can't tell any big truths, but they are very simple and understand the truth of Entubao.
This is exactly what Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen want to see the most.
Lei Zhen is like a mirror in his heart, but he doesn't break it, no matter whether the king is acting or deliberately pretentious, in short, he will be content to see his parents so happy.
He knelt on the ground and didn't get up, turned around and kowtowed to Tang Yin again, and said: "The king's great kindness and virtue, the villain is unforgettable, the villain is willing to join the army and serve the country loyally, but the villain also has a request, please answer the king." ” Lei's father and Lei's mother's face changed at the same time, his baby was crazy, and he actually talked to the king about the conditions The second elder looked at Tang Yin worriedly, and then scolded dissatisfiedly: "Zhen'er" Tang Yin waved his hand at the second elder, then looked down at Lei Zhen who was kneeling on the ground, and asked with a smile: "Lei Zhen, what do you want, tell me" Lei Zhen took a deep breath, raised his head, met Tang Yin's gaze, and said: "After the villain joins the army, he will not leave the wind country for half a step, if a strong enemy comes to attack, even if the villain is crushed and will die, but if the king waives an expedition, please leave the villain in the country."
The villain only has this one requirement. ” When Tang Yin heard this, he immediately frowned.
Even Qiu Zhen felt very uncomfortable in his heart, joining the army is joining the army, being in the army, you have to obey the general's orders, how can there be a reason that you can only stay in the country and are unwilling to go to war.
Qiu Zhen thought that Tang Yin would oppose and be furious, but he stared at Lei Zhen for a long time, his expression slowly softened, and he sighed softly: "Lei Zhen, you made such a request in order to honor your parents nearby."
"Yes, King."
Lei Zhen looked sad and said: "The villain's two brothers are both dead in a foreign land, and after the villain joins the army, even if he dies on the battlefield, he will die on the mainland of the Wind Country, and he will still hope for the king Haihan." ” Tang Yin nodded, and said quietly: "As the saying goes, loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve, but this king thinks that as a person, you should first be filial, and then be loyal, if you are not even filial to your parents, how can you be loyal to the country?
