Chapter 697 Hearing that Tang Yin accepted Lei Zhen's request, Qiu Zhen grinned secretly, stepped forward quickly, and said in a low voice: "King, once this precedent is opened, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future."
It is not unreasonable for him to think about it, if today Lei Zhen's request to only stay in the Wind Country and not want to go abroad for an expedition is accepted by the king, then tomorrow other generals will also make the same request, and the king will not agree that if all the generals are unwilling to go on the expedition, then who will lead the army to fight in the future Tang Yin understood Qiu Zhen's concerns, he pondered for a moment and said, "Only this once, not for example."
Alas, Qiu Zhen sighed and did not speak again.
How could Lei Zhen let go of such an opportunity, for fear that Tang Yin would regret it, he took a deep breath, kowtowed and said loudly: "The last general, thank you King Longen" The corners of Tang Yin's mouth were raised, and he smiled, but the smile was somewhat far-fetched, he waved his hand and said, "Get up" With Lei Zhen's surrender to the army, so far, Tang Yin promulgated the Nawu order to screen out the sixteen Lingwu masters all entered the wind team, these sixteen people, later also known as the sixteen generals of the wind army, with the wind army to fight in the south and north, siege the city and pull out the village, born and died, but also made great contributions to the revitalization of the wind country.
Tang Yin recruited troops and horses in the Wind Country, recuperated his strength, and successively issued the Nayan Decree and the Nawu Order, recruiting and selecting a large number of civil and military talents for the Feng Country, and these actions also laid a solid foundation for the Feng Country's second war against Ning.
Subduing Lei Zhen, Tang Yin finally got to a heart, and the next thing he had to do was to wait, wait for Mo Wang Shao Fang to come to Yancheng and make final consultations on the two countries joining forces to destroy Ning.
Leaving Lei Zhen to reunite with his family, Tang Yin took Qiu Zhen back to the palace.
On the way, Qiu Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "The king is very unusual to Lei Zhen."
Knowing what he was referring to, Tang Yin smiled and said, "He has such a capital, doesn't he?"
Qiu Zhen nodded, the power of Lei Zhen's Lingwu is obvious to all, and it is estimated that only Shangguan Yuanrang can match it in the entire Wind Country.
Thinking of Shangguan Yuanrang, Qiu Zhen raised his head and said thoughtfully: "Come to think of it, Yuanrang's injuries should almost heal." ” Tang Yin smiled and said, "The battle of destroying Ning is inseparable from Yuan Rang. ” "Why don't you let Yuan Rang return to the capital, recuperate from his injuries, and stay in Hedong, I'm afraid it will not be conducive to Yuan Rang's recovery from his injuries" Qiu Zhen was a little worried.
Tang Yin didn't want to transfer Shangguan Yuanrang back, he shook his head and said: "Youyuan Rang is in Hedong, the Ning army does not dare to cross the river to attack, the mob in Hedong does not dare to make chaos, and the deterrence of Yuan Rang alone is far better than the army of 100,000." ” Qiu Zhen smiled on his back in agreement, this is the role of a famous general.
Walking towards the palace, Qiu Zhen was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the front and said, "King, the place in front of you seems to be the palace."
"En" Tang Yin heard this, raised his eyes and looked, but no, he saw thick smoke billowing in the direction of the palace, although he couldn't see the fire, but the smoke was not small.
He frowned, didn't say a word, urged the war horse, and galloped towards the palace.
Qiu Zhen hurriedly shouted to the left and right: "Quick, keep up with the king, and protect it strictly" As he got closer and closer to the palace, Tang Yin became more and more sure that the smoke was indeed coming from the palace.
He didn't know what was going on, he was so anxious that he galloped like a whirlwind.
Before he reached the palace, he arrived at the corner of the street, and a sergeant hurriedly ran towards him.
Tang Yin slowed down his horse and asked loudly, "What's wrong with the mansion and why is there a fire?"
"Back to the king, it was a fire in the firewood room, and it has been extinguished" A captain of the guard took the lead in rushing to Tang Yin's horse and intervened to give a salute.
When Tang Yin heard this, he finally let go of his heart, and then asked with a cold face: "It's good, how could the firewood room catch fire?"
"This" the chief guard said while wiping a cold sweat: "General Wang is investigating, and the specific reason is unknown to his subordinates. ” "Hmph" Tang Yin didn't ask any more questions, urged the horse to come to the front of the mansion, turned over and dismounted, and strode inside.
After entering the palace, there was chaos inside, with maids, attendants, and guards shuttling back and forth, and people shouting and neighing.
Tang Yin took a deep breath and went straight to the firewood room where the accident occurred.
The firewood room has been controlled by a group of guards, looking inside, the huge firewood room has been burned clean, only a pile of broken bricks and tiles remains, fortunately, the fire was found in time, the fire was controlled as soon as possible, otherwise I don't know how many houses will be implicated Tang Yin clenched his fists and shouted, "Who is in charge here now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a general ran out of the crowd quickly, came to Tang Yin's approach, knelt down on one knee to salute, and said, "The last general, Wang An, will see the king."
Wang An served as a guard lieutenant and was in charge of the protection of the palace, and now the palace has become a palace, and Wang An, the guard captain, has become the head of the courtyard.
Tang Yin glanced at him and asked, "Has the cause of the fire in the firewood room been identified?"
Wang An said in a low voice: "It hasn't been found out yet. ” Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked: "Then how did you, the captain, do not understand such a big thing as the fire in the mansion, what use do I want you?"
Wang An's body trembled, and he almost fell to the ground, and he said tremblingly: "The king is angry, and the general will find out the cause of the fire as soon as possible."
Before he finished speaking, a young man wearing a black brocade robe and a knife at his waist appeared out of nowhere, walked quickly to Tang Yin's approach, intervened in the salute, and said, "Subordinate Zhang Xiao See the King" Zhang Xiao Tang Yin was stunned for a moment before remembering who this person was.
Cheng Jin mentioned to him before that the new captain of the second team of Dark Arrow is named Zhang Xiao.
He looked at this person, Zhang Xiao's appearance did not match the name at all, there was no smile on his face, he was rigid and serious, giving people a cold feeling.
After looking at it for a moment, he asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhang Xiao looked left and right, took a step forward, leaned close to Tang Yin's ear, and whispered: "The fire in the firewood room should have something to do with Princess Shao Xuan." ” "En" Tang Yin looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Wasn't she locked up in the room by me?"
Zhang Xiao said expressionlessly: "The guards can't look at Princess Shao Xuan. ” As soon as he heard this, Tang Yin didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, Shao Xuan had never learned Lingwu, and she was just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, how could the guards not be able to look at her, but the secret arrow has always been rigorous, and if there is no evidence, she will never talk nonsense.
He pondered for a moment and asked, "How did she get out?"
Zhang Xiao replied: "My subordinates don't know where Princess Shao Xuan got a strange medicinal powder, which will itch very much when sprinkled on people, and it can only stop itching after taking a bath, and the guards guarding Princess Shao Xuan's courtyard were driven away by her with this kind of thing." ” In Tang Yin's palace, the guards are a protective net on the surface, and the dark arrow is a protective net hidden in the dark, and all the movements in the palace are almost impossible to hide from the eyes and ears of the dark arrow.
Listening to Zhang Xiao's narration, Tang Yin's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, why did this little girl get so many tricks and where did she get these strange things When Zhang Xiao finished speaking, he asked angrily: "Where is she now?"
"I've gone back to the princess's room."
Tang Yin didn't ask any more questions, and turned around angrily and walked towards Shao Xuan's courtyard.
At this time, he felt that his hands began to itch again, and he felt that he would beat Shao Xuan's ass again.
There were chickens and dogs jumping in the firewood room, but Shao Xuan was unusually quiet here, and the guards guarding outside the courtyard were all slanted in their armor, untidy, and their faces were ugly.
Seeing that the king was coming, the guards hurriedly arranged their clothes and armor, and then knelt down in unison to salute.
Tang Yin calmed down and asked, "Is Shao Xuan inside?"

"Yes, yes, my lord," replied one of the chief guards in a trembling voice.
"Did she go out just now?"
Tang Yin asked casually.
"The subordinates don't know" Seeing Tang Yin's sharp gaze falling on him, he shuddered with fright, his head hung down and was about to be buried in his knees, and he didn't dare to breathe.
Seeing this, Tang Yin understood in his heart, and it seemed that what Zhang Xiao said was true.
He walked into the courtyard and entered the main room, and at the same time shouted and asked, "Where is Shao Xuan?"
When the maids of the waiter Shao Xuan saw Tang Yin rushing towards him angrily, they knelt on the ground in fright, and one of them replied in a trembling voice: "In the bedroom" Tang Yin walked through the crowd, pushed open the door, and walked into Shao Xuan's bedroom.
Looking up, Shao Xuan was indeed there, sitting on the bed at this time with a serious embroidery.
Tang Yin clenched his fists, stepped forward, and without waiting to speak, he first snatched the white silk embroidered by Shao Xuan.
"Ahh Shao Xuan screamed in fright, raised her head, her eyes were wide, and she looked at Tang Yin pitifully.
Seeing her pitiful and innocent appearance, Tang Yin was really soft-hearted for a while, but when he thought about Shao Xuan's evil surname, his anger burned to his head again.
This time, her eldest lady burned the firewood house, and next time she might have to burn down the entire palace, if she didn't teach her a lesson, I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wait for Shao Fang to arrive in Yancheng and pick her up, and she would be homeless.
He asked coldly, "You did it again this time?"
"What" Shao Xuan blinked, pretending to be dazed.
"Don't pretend to be confused with me" Tang Yin bent down violently, pressing his hands on the beds on both sides of Shao Xuan, and the faces of the two were less than three inches apart.
He asked word by word: "You dare to say that the fire in the firewood house has nothing to do with you" The secret voice is over, Shao Xuan also knows that this time she has caused a big disaster, looking at the handsome face in front of her, her eyes are rolling around, her eyes are rolling around, her eyes are looking out of the window, and she hurriedly said: "The weather is so good today, let's go outside for a walk together" As she spoke, she moved her little ass and wanted to get out of bed.
Tang Yin didn't speak, didn't move, his arms didn't mean to get out of the way, and at the same time his eyes stared at her.
Shao Xuan's two sides were caught by Tang Yin's arms, and he was blocking him in front of him, so he couldn't go anywhere.
The innocence on her face first turned to anger, then to helplessness, then to fear, and finally to innocent, pitiful appearance.
She carefully and gently pushed Tang Yin's arm, and whispered, "I didn't mean it":
