The tenth episode, the twelfth chapter

Qiu Zhen said: "I think General Zhan is the main one and General Kong is the best."

"Oh?" Tang Yin asked with a smile: "Why do you say that?"

Qiu Zhense said: "General Zhan is not only both civil and military, but also fair and loyal. He is quite respected and loved by his generals in the central army. General Kong is resourceful and good at adapting to changes, but he is slightly insufficient for the main and is more than enough for the auxiliary."

Tang Yin nodded while listening, thinking that what Qiu Zhen said made sense. At this time, Wu Mei asked in a question: "Does Qiu Xiang think General Lei is not competent?"

"Oh..." Qiu Zhen frowned slightly, thinking that Wu Mei, as the king's wife, could be good at listening to the matter while discussing the matter, and it would be inappropriate to interrupt. He looked at Tang Yin and saw that the latter did not show any dissatisfaction, but was waiting for his answer. Qiu Zhen sighed inwardly and said, "General Lei is brave and good at fighting. He is a powerful general who charges on the battlefield, but may not be able to serve as the general of Duwei Camp."

Wu Mei was dissatisfied with such a saying, and she said seriously: "General Lei is not as brave but not wise as Qiu Xiang said. In my opinion, General Lei's ability is definitely not inferior to General Zhan. Last time when he resisted Zhenjun in Wancheng, our city was broken, but General Lei did not escape or give up. He forced his brothers to fight back to the city and drove Zhenjun out of the city in one fell swoop. General Lei was brave, had strategy, and had a sense of responsibility. In the face of the country, he did not care about his personal life and death. The king established the Duwei Camp to ensure the safety of civil and military officials in the court. Isn't this kind of talent needed?"

Wumei's words really made Qiu Zhen speechless. Tang Yin also moved his heart and nodded secretly. Whether it is abilities or personality, Lei Zhen is indeed more suitable to serve as the chief officer of the Duwei Camp.

He pondered for a moment, and saw that Qiu Zhen seemed a little embarrassed, he smiled and said, "I am full of talents. Other countries are worried about shortage of soldiers and shortages, but I am in a dilemma for too many candidates. This is a good thing, haha..."

Qiu Zhen and Wumei were both happy when they heard this.

Tang Yin continued: "General Lei made great contributions to the Battle of Wancheng, and he saved Mei'er's life. I have never rewarded him with great rewards. This time, I will give Lei Zhen a chance to serve as the general of the Duwei Camp. Qiu Zhen, what do you think?"

Qiu Zhen didn't know how to say anything else at this time. He looked at Wumei next to Tang Yin deeply, then stood up and bowed and said, "Master Yingming!"

Under Wu Mei's recommendation of being unruly, Tang Yin decided to appoint Lei Zhen as the general of the Duwei Camp, and granted Lei Zhen as the Lieutenant General, and the General of Shenwei, and also appointed Kong Yan as the deputy general of the Duwei Camp, and also granted the rank of Lieutenant General, and the General of Shenzhi.

Since he wanted to give the title, Tang Yin simply gave it a complete title in one go. Together with Lei Zhen and Kong Yan, the generals who made military achievements in the War of Denning and the National Defense War were most of them named Lieutenant Generals and had their own titles, including Zhan Peng, Wei Xuan, Li Sheng, Ye Tang, Gao Yu and other generals.

This group of titles awarded generals, unified with the word "Shen", and they are both lieutenant generals. Since the total number is eighteen, these eighteen people are also collectively called the Eighteen Generals of the Shenwu Kingdom of Feng Kingdom.

In response to the erratic turmoil established by the Ning people's resistance forces, Tang Yin formed the Duwei Camp, which was responsible for protecting the personal safety of Chinese and Chinese civil and military officials in the court. Although this was an emergency measure to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, it greatly curbed the rampant assassination operations of assassins and also allowed the turbulent Fengguo court to gradually stabilize.

The capital city had nothing to do, so the assassin immediately moved his target to the local government and assassinated local officials. The first general of the Duweiying camp, Lei Zhen, came up with a solution and suggested to Tang Yin to expand the Duweiying camp and establish a Duweiying camp in various counties in Fengguo to suppress the assassin. Tang Yin did not think much and nodded to the right.

The rapid growth of Duweiying was shocking. It quickly spread from Yancheng to the counties of Fengguo, becoming a special institution with great power and authority. Of course, the main factor that promoted the rapid growth of Chengdu Duweiying was the assassins who were assassinated everywhere.

There are methods to defend against assassins, but the operation to investigate the assassin has not made any progress. It is not that the Sky Eye, Earth Net, and hidden arrows are not good at doing things, but that the organization of the Frank and Wind is too closed and too secret. It is too difficult for outsiders to find out the inside story.

A few days after the Duweiying Camp was established, Zhang Zhe's letter came from Ningdi, saying that the envoy of Tia had accepted the three conditions proposed by his country. As long as Fengguo was willing to send troops to provide assistance, Tia was willing to provide gold and silver to Fengguo, was willing to surrender to Fengguo, and was willing to impart his own technology to Fengguo.

It was a good thing that Tia accepted the conditions of Feng Kingdom in full, but the court of Feng Kingdom was not happy, and the atmosphere became more and more serious. People knew in their hearts that since Tia accepted the conditions, the war was not far from him. The Sanshui Army, which was stockpiled in Tongmen, might then rush to Tia to fight Duji's army.

As for the war in Thia, Feng's domestic suggestions have not been unified until now. The hawks, who were favored by Qiu Zhen, were strongly in charge of the war. The lords led by Zhang Xin were not silent. They ran to Tang Yin from time to time and settled with their fingers whether the war broke out. Once the war broke out, they would have more benefits or more disadvantages to their country.

Tang Yin was quarreled by the two factions, but fortunately, King Besa's reply was also passed to Yancheng. King Besa Knis actually agreed to Tang Yin's proposal for marriage, but there was a condition that Tang Yin wanted to go to Besa in person and marry Xiao Na.

With the arrival of King Besa's reply, the peace faction was completely extinguished. People understand that the war between the country and Duki was inevitable. The focus of the Feng Kingdom's court also changed from whether to assist Tia to whether Tang Yin should go to Besa to marry him in person.

After all, Besa and Duki are all ally. Feng Guo wants to fight Duki, and no one can guarantee that Besa will be inclined to Feng Guo. If Besa invites Tang Yin to marry the princess, it is a conspiracy, then Tang Yin's trip will be in danger.

At this point, Tang Yin himself felt that he could go there. Not to mention anything else, he still owed Xiao Na an agreement. He promised Xiao Na that he would definitely go to Besa again after he became the Wind King, but this delay lasted for two or three years.

Tang Yin meant to go, but the ministers and opponents in the court, even the emperor Yin Zhun summoned Tang Yin into the palace for this matter, and politely advised him not to go to Besa himself.

In Tang Yin's eyes, Feng was worried about domestic and foreign troubles, and was full of holes and troubles. However, in Yin Zhun's view, Feng Kingdom is in a strong period of prosperity and he has no choice but to rely on Tang Yin. The most solid way to make the dependence relationship change is marriage.

He had heard that Tang Yin had a special liking for his sister Yin Rouqing. His attitude was opposed before, and he didn't even mention this matter at all. In his subconscious, he felt that Tang Yin was a toad that wanted to eat swan meat. However, as Feng Kingdom annexed half of Ning Kingdom and successfully resisted the attack of the four-nation coalition forces of the Chinese four countries, Yin Zhun's view and attitude towards Tang Yin changed again, and he had to re-look on the matter between Tang Yin and Yin Rou.

He hopes to firmly control Tang Yin through marriage and make him obey him. Of course, his sister is a dignified imperial princess. Even if he marrys Tang Yin, he must be a princess. But Yin Rou is a princess and Xiao Na is also a princess. If Tang Yin first marry Xiao Na and Xiao Na becomes the princess, then what will his sister do after marrying Tang Yin? If he is a concubine, the entire royal family will be completely lost.

This is the most fundamental reason why Yin Zhun opposed Tang Yin's visit to Besa to welcome the bride.

In front of Tang Yin, Yin Zhun could not understand his thoughts in his heart. He could only say that the barbarians were cunning, had no integrity, and could not live with them. He also said that the Feng Kingdom is currently in a mess. As the king of a country, it is really not suitable to travel far away from the country at this time, etc.

Yin Zhun said a lot, and Tang Yin finally understood that he opposed going to Besa. Tang Yin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have been to Besa many times and have never been in danger. This time will be no exception. Don't worry, Your Majesty."

The more Tang Yin said this, the less worried Yin Zhun was, but he could not force Tang Yin to not go to Besa. After thinking about it, his eyes lit up and said, "The princess is nearly eighteen years old and is at the age of marriage. I want to..." At this point, he deliberately stopped and looked at Tang Yin.

At this time, Tang Yin was also looking at him, with no expression on his face, but his eyes were extremely sharp. Even if he stared at Yin Zhun like this, the latter felt chilling. He asked, "What do you want to do?"

Yin Zhun swallowed and plucked his courage and said, "I...I want to complete the marriage between the princess and the prince of Zhenguo Li Dan."

This sentence penetrated Tang Yin's heart. He laughed in great anger, first chuckling, then laughed up on his back. Not only did the maids on both sides were shocked, but even Yin Zhun stayed there, motionless.

Tang Yin laughed wildly for a long time, suddenly took a big step forward, leaning forward, approaching Yin Zhun, the distance between the two was so close that the tip of the nose was about to touch the tip of the nose, he said in a gentle tone: "Zhen Ren wanted to kill Your Majesty, but Your Majesty wanted to marry the princess to Zhenguo. This is simply a big deal, and he is pushing the princess into the fire pit. Doesn't Your Majesty understand?"

I didn't expect Tang Yin's reaction to be so great, and he even dared to be so rude to himself. But then he thought about it, Yin Zhun laughed in his heart again. Doesn't Tang Yin's reaction mean that he has a deep relationship with his sister?

Yin Zhun was calm and said, "Tang Aiqing, you should be very clear about the princess and Li Dan's engagement. As the emperor, how can I break my trust?"

Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and stared at Yin Zhun. He was also wondering why Yin Zhun suddenly mentioned the marriage between Yin Rou and Li Dan in front of him today. Logically speaking, this marriage had long been cancelled because of the attack on Shangjing by Chuanzhen's coalition forces.

Soon, Tang Yin calmed down. No matter how much Yin Zhun was the emperor, he still used him, so he could not turn against him openly. He suppressed his anger, took two steps back, and bowed and said, "The kingdom of Zhen is the one who breaks his trust. Your Majesty does not have to feel guilty about this. Your Majesty should also ask the princess what he meant when she got married to Li Dan."
