Tang Yin did not show any anger because of the county chief's contradiction. He pondered for a moment and then said seriously: "The post of inspector has existed since the founding of Feng State. It was established by the founding king, but in your mouth
But it has become an irrelevant and false position, you are suspected of questioning the late king!"
The position of inspector was indeed a false one, but no one dared to say it in public. They only dared to discuss it in private, for fear of being labeled as slandering the late king. When the county chief heard this, his face suddenly changed and he screamed secretly.
Oops, he quickly changed his words and said: "I... of course I didn't question the late king's intention, I just... just felt..." He hesitated and couldn't continue.
Tang Yin said slowly: "Since it was set up by the late king, the patrol envoy naturally has its role and effectiveness. Letting Mr. Yu serve as the patrol envoy of the three counties is also to better supervise and coordinate the three counties and provide the soldiers fighting at the front with
Is such an important position with good logistics support an insignificant and false position?"
Under Tang Yin's repeated questioning, the county chief was speechless and sweating profusely. Finally, he could only look at Yu Tao for help. Yu Tao laughed dryly and raised his hands to Tang Yin, just as he was about to speak.
The latter had already waved his hand to stop him. Without looking at him, he continued to ask the county chief: "Now, do you agree or disagree with my arrangement?"
"This...I..." Of course, this county chief had one hundred and twenty objections. Now he had offended Tang Yin. If Yu Tao was transferred, he would definitely not get anything good, but he couldn't find any rebuttal for a while.
Tang Yin's reasons were stammered and speechless. After a long silence, he said: "In short, this matter should be discussed in the long term and should not be decided hastily."
Tang Yin walked to his table and said, "The battle with the traitor Zhong Tian is imminent. How long do you think this matter will be discussed?"
"At least... at least Mr. Tang's deployment is convincing!" The county chief was willing to risk it all at this time, admitting that he had offended Tang Yin and wanted to keep his position as the county chief.
Tang Yin laughed on his back, turned his head to look left and right, and asked: "Who is dissatisfied with my decision?" Before the people around him could speak, he immediately said with a smile: "I think among the adults present, you are the only one who is dissatisfied.
Really! What’s your motive for repeatedly interfering with my orders? Are you a confidant of Zhong Tian, and now you want to disrupt our deployment? "
These words are too serious. How can he, a mere county chief, bear it?! He stood up in a hurry, glared at Tang Yin, and said angrily: "Master Tang, you can't spit on others..."
"Huh! You are slandering people? I think you are loyal to Zhong Tian's work. How can I tolerate you?" Tang Yin still had a smile on his face, but his hand had already grabbed the crown of the county chief and pressed down hard.
There was just a bang, and the county chief's head hit the table hard. He screamed strangely, and just as he was about to struggle, the dagger in Tang Yin's other hand was suddenly inserted.
flutter!
The dagger hit the county chief's left ear with such force that it was inserted through his ear hole and protruded out of his right ear hole. Even the board of the table below was pierced, and blood dripped down the protruding tip of the knife.
On the ground, Tang Yin was smiling, but it was just a fake smile. The brighter his smile, the more ruthless he was. It can be said that this knife was merciless.
"Huh?" Tang Yin killed the county chief with one blow, frightening the surrounding county chiefs into stunned silence. It took a long time for someone to scream in surprise, and the body sitting on the mat could not help but rub back.
Tang Yin tightened his grip on the knife, pulled it hard, and pulled the dagger out of the corpse's head with a bang. Then he looked around and said with a smile: "My lords, don't be nervous. You will be worthy of death if you do this carefully." He said as he spoke.
As he spoke, he wiped the blood on the dagger back and forth on the corpse's official uniform.
Among the people present, only Shangguan Yuanji was the calmest. He had seen Tang Yin's tricks before, so it was not surprising at all. Even when the county chief contradicted him, he had a premonition that this person was in danger. But he
The three county chiefs under him were not familiar with Tang Yin, and they had not seen Tang Yin's ferocious appearance when he killed people without blinking an eye. Even though they were officials under his command, they were so frightened that they were covered in cold sweat, their eyes were lowered, and they did not dare to look directly at him.
At this time, the guards guarding the door rushed closer. They were all Tang Yin's subordinates. They rushed to Tang Yin and surrounded him. At the same time, they all drew out their sabers. The guards inspected the surrounding people.
The official asked in a low voice: "Sir, what's going on?"
Tang Yin waved his hand and said lightly: "I just found a craftsman who has been executed by me. You can drag the body out!"
"Yes! Sir!" After hearing this, all the guards put away their sabers one after another, walked out two soldiers, grabbed the corpse of the county chief, and dragged it out of the hall like a dead dog.
After the guards took the body away, Tang Yin picked up the wine pot, poured the wine on the dagger, then walked back to the roasted sheep in the center, cut the mutton slowly, and asked with a smile again: "Now, you guys
Do you agree or disagree with my decision?"
"Agree! I agree!" This time, the other three county chiefs under Yu Tao's command were the first to express their opinions. The lessons from the past were right in front of them. The three of them were so frightened that they almost wet their pants. The future is important, but the wealth and life are more important.
, how could they dare to utter a word of doubt at this time?
When Tang Yin heard this, he nodded with a smile, turned to look at Zhao Hui and the heads of Guannan County, and asked with a smile: "What do Mr. Zhao and all your lords mean?"
Zhao Hui came back to his senses, took a deep breath, bowed slightly, raised his hands and said, "Your Excellency is wise!"
"Haha!" Tang Yin laughed and said: "Since everyone agrees, then the matter is settled. From now on, Mr. Yu will serve as the inspector of the three counties, and the position of chief of the county will be temporarily taken over by Mr. Shangguan.
"As he spoke, he looked at Shangguan Yuanji again, suppressed his smile, and said seriously, "Sir Shangguan, I have to work hard for you again this time! In the future, you will be in charge of Tianyuan County and Jinguang County, and the affairs will be even more heavy. You can
Make proper arrangements and don’t worry about one thing at the expense of the other!”
Shangguan Yuanrang smiled bitterly. He knew that if Tang Yin kicked Yu Tao away, he would definitely not be able to escape the involvement. Sure enough, his immediate boss had left Jinguang County to him again. He sighed, said nothing more, raised his hands and said
: "I obey my orders."
Zhao Hui on the side looked around and shook his head secretly. Since Tang Yin kicked Yu Tao away, no need to ask, it will be his turn next. Don't wait for others to point his head, so he should take the initiative.
Well done. Thinking of this, he stood up, raised his hands to Tang Yin and said, "Master Tang, I am the inspector of the three counties. I am afraid that I will be alone, so I want to help you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin interrupted: "Master Zhao should continue to serve as the head of Guannan County! Guannan County is in an important position, connecting the past and the next. It needs a capable and credible person to take charge of the overall situation. Zhao
Your Excellency is the most suitable candidate, so you should stay in Guannan County!"
Yu Tao and Zhao Hui were both county chiefs who later took refuge with Tang Yin, but the latter's attitude towards them was completely different. After hearing what Tang Yin said, Zhao Hui was excited and moved, and stood up hurriedly
He bowed to the ground towards Tang Yin and said, "Thank you for your respect, sir. I will do my best to assist you and accomplish great things!"
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded with a smile and responded softly without saying anything more.
He left Zhao Hui behind, causing the three county chiefs of Guannan County to breathe a sigh of relief, and the solemn and fearful expressions on their faces became much lighter. The county chiefs are the direct superiors of the county chiefs, so the latter naturally share the same interests with the former.
, Zhao Hui is fine, and they are all relieved.
Yu Tao and the three county chiefs under his command looked extremely ugly. They couldn't understand why the treatment of officials who later defected to Tang Yin were so different. However, now that Tang Yin had heavy troops, they did not dare to speak out even if they were dissatisfied.
.
Tang Yin said to Zhao Hui again: "Mr. Zhao, Sir Shangguan has a unique way of handling government affairs. You should ask Sir Shangguan for more advice in the future!"
Zhao Hui is so smart. When he heard this, he basically understood what Tang Yin meant. He wanted Shangguan Yuanrang to be responsible for the government affairs of the three counties. Zhao Hui was a person with weak desires and didn't care who would be responsible for the three counties.
As for county government affairs, he only needs to manage his own Guannan County. He responded quickly: "Yes! I know it!" After speaking, he looked at Shangguan Yuanji again, bowed deeply, and said: "I will look after Shangguan in the future.
Sir, please give me your advice and support!"
"Ah! You're so polite, Mr. Zhao!" Shangguan Yuanji stood up and returned the salute to Zhao Hui.
After a banquet, Tang Yin deprived Yu Tao of his position as county chief, gave him a false position that was insignificant and had no real power, and promoted Shangguan Yuanrang to the head of the government affairs of the three counties. It was not until this moment that he felt that he was a real person.
Take control of three counties.
After the banquet, Tang Yin was not polite to Tao at all. Since he was no longer the county chief, the county capital's mansion should be given away. He only gave Yu Tao half a day to pack up his belongings and belongings, and then ordered the eviction of the servants and servants in the county capital.
, and asked Shangguan Yuanji to move into Yu Tao's county capital.
Tang Yin's vigorous and resolute actions caught Yu Tao off guard. When he and his family were expelled from the county capital by a large number of Tianyuan troops, most of the property collected over the years was not taken away. They were all taken by the Tianyuan army and included in the Tianyuan army's property.
Library.
At this time, Yu Tao felt both hatred and regret. He hated Tang Yin's tricks, but also regretted that he had listened to Zong Yuan's slander and ended up like this. However, there is no medicine for regret in the world, and Yu Tao can only be mute and eat coptis.
, after all, this is the reality of the world, and whoever is stronger has the final say.
After driving Yu Tao away, Tang Yin found Shangguan Yuanji and said straight to the point: "Yuanji, you will be responsible for all the government affairs of the three counties in the future. You have to help me take care of it!"
