The Feng Kingdom successively annexed the five kingdoms of Ning, Mo, An, Huan, and Zhen. The Feng King Tang Yin married Sichuan King Xiao Xiang and the Jade King Lingshuang one after another. Now the Haotian Empire is completely under the Feng Kingdom, and the feudal lords have lasted for nearly a thousand years.
The separatist regime finally came to an end.
The world is unified, and there will be no major wars in the future. Next, the thing that the ministers of Feng Kingdom look forward to most is that Tang Yin can go one step further, replace Yin Zhun, and establish a new dynasty based on Feng Kingdom.
This is not only the wish of the Feng ministers, but also the common wish of the Sichuan ministers, the Ning ministers, the Mo ministers, etc. People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. Whether they are civil servants or military generals, they
What is the purpose of following Tang Yin through life and death?
The ultimate goal is to achieve success and honor the ancestors. Even if the Feng Kingdom has unified the world now, the Feng Kingdom is only a principality after all, and they are only ministers in the principality, which are essentially different from the ministers of the imperial court.
It can be said that no one wants to be granted the title of king or marquis, but these are currently things that Tang Yin cannot give them. Tang Yin's own title is only that of a prince, so how can he grant them the title of king?
In the past few days, at every court meeting in Feng State, ministers have stood up to persuade Tang Yin to come forward. Today it may be the minister from Sichuan who stands up to persuade him to come in, and tomorrow it may be the minister from Ningren or the minister from Zhenren who persuades him to come in. Tang Yin himself was also persuaded by the ministers.
I went to great lengths to persuade him to come in.
He had no intention of going any further. Not to mention that he didn't want to be the emperor. Even the current King of Wind began to feel boring to him.
Since the Feng Kingdom unified all the countries and quickly quelled the rebel forces in various places, the world has become peaceful and there is no war to fight. The following days are what Tang Yin least wants to face, government affairs, which have to be dealt with every day but will never be fought.
Endless government affairs.
In such a huge empire, all the big and small things that happen in various places will eventually be concentrated in the Feng Palace, and it will be decided by Tang Yin. At first, it was just the government affairs of the Feng Kingdom. Tang Yin felt it was a headache, but now the government affairs of the eight countries are all on him alone.
On the head, one can imagine how heavy and hard it is to deal with.
The difference from before was that at the beginning, he could use the excuse of going to war in person to pass the government affairs to the ministers below to handle. But now that there is no war in the world, he can no longer find any reason to ignore the government affairs.
Now, Tang Yin can finally understand why Ren Xiao doesn't want to be the Holy King so much.
The reason why he and Ren Xiao became close friends was mainly because their temperaments were very similar, they were both loose and did not like to be restrained and liked to live a free life.
It's just that Ren Xiao has a peaceful nature, while Tang Yin is just the opposite, with aggressive elements flowing in his blood.
Tang Yin knew in his heart that he might not have the chance to go to the battlefield again in the future, and he gradually began to lose interest in his throne. The status of the Wind King could no longer bring him any fun, but only endless pressure and
trouble.
Many times, like Ren Xiao, he would ask himself whether the future would be like this, busy all day long, trapped in the palace for the rest of his life. He and Ren Xiao came to the same conclusion, this is not the case at all.
It's just not the life he wants.
On this day, Tang Yin was busy dealing with government affairs in the study until late at night. He looked at the memorials that had been processed on the left hand side, and then looked at the piles of memorials on the right hand side. He couldn't help but sigh and said to Asan who was standing by.
Asked: "Didn't I tell you before? All matters that are not important can be left to the Political Council. Don't send everything to me!"
Ah San replied cautiously: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Right Chancellor has specially told you that these memorials are important matters that need to be reviewed and decided by Your Majesty in person. The Political Council cannot handle them, and..."
"And what, finish the sentence?"
"The right minister also said that these memorials will be discussed at court tomorrow morning, and the king needs to finish them all tonight."
Ah San has been with Tang Yin for so long, so of course he knows what he least wants to do. Not to mention Tang Yin, even he would feel a headache just looking at the numerous memorials on the desk.
"It's easy to say, let him do it himself!" Tang Yin muttered angrily. At this moment, a guard at the door of the study stepped in and saluted: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qiu wants to see you!"
Hey! Tang Yin was stunned, it was so late, why is Qiu Zhen here? Maybe something important happened again! Tang Yin couldn't help but rub his forehead, was silent for a moment, waved and said: "Let him come in!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!" the guard responded, turned and left. Not long after, Qiu Zhen walked in from the outside. "I am here to see you, Your Majesty!"
Tang Yin frowned and looked at Qiu Zhen, asking, "Qiu Zhen, why are you here so late?"
Qiu Zhen smiled and said, "Wei Chen is fine."
"What? Is everything okay?" Tang Yin almost turned his nose after hearing this. He was so exhausted that he, Qiu Zhen, had a lot of free time. He stayed up most of the night and came to hang out with him.
"If you have nothing to do, go home and go to bed. I don't have time to chat with you now!" As he spoke, he waved his hands impatiently as if to shoo away flies, then lowered his head and picked up the memorial again.
"I saw that the king has been in low spirits and depressed these past few days, so I came to visit the king!"
Qiu Zhen walked forward happily, looked at the memorials piled on the table, and said to himself: "It seems that the humble minister came at the wrong time and delayed the king's handling of government affairs."
Tang Yin put down the memorial in his hand, looked up at Qiu Zhen, became angry, and asked with a smile: "Qiu Zhen, you came here just to make me angry!"
Qiu Zhen waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I don't dare!"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes. After a while, he moved his butt to the side to make way for him and said, "Since you are here, it's a good time to help me deal with these memorials."
He said while pointing his finger: "These are the ones that have been processed, and those are the ones that have not been processed."
Qiu Zhen was not polite. He sat down next to Tang Yin, picked up a memorial, opened it and read it, then closed it again, put it over to Tang Yin, and said: "This is a memorial to request the imperial court to allocate some silver. I am a humble minister."
I don’t dare to make decisions on behalf of the king.”
Then, he picked up another memorial, closed it as soon as he opened it, put it over to Tang Yin, and muttered: "This is a memorial for the disaster, and it must be decided by the king himself." Then, he
He picked up the third memorial.
This time, before he could open it, Tang Yin had already grabbed it and gave Qiu Zhen a fierce look.
He could tell that if he didn't take the time to chat with Qiu Zhen, he wouldn't leave. He put down the memorial, changed his mind, and asked with a smile: "Qiu Zhen, are you lying about coming to visit me?
Are you here to persuade me to join?"
Qiu Zhen grinned, leaned forward and said, "Nothing can be hidden from your eyes!"
Tang Yin took a deep breath and murmured: "Even you think I should replace Yin Zhun and sit on that throne..."
"The king is actually no different from the emperor now."
Qiu Zhen suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Now that the king is in charge of the country, he is performing the duties of the emperor. If he cannot ascend to the throne, his name will be unfair, his words will not be smooth, and he will be criticized. It will also make the ministers in the court
It’s so heart-breaking!”
Tang Yin remained silent. Qiu Zhen continued: "What's more, the emperor is incompetent, ignorant and ignorant, and his people's hearts have long been lost. He is like a rotten tree, but your Majesty is the one where the hearts of the people want! The number of Hao Tiantian has been exhausted, and my strong wind is like the sun. Your Majesty.
We should inherit the destiny of heaven, obey the people's will, replace it, and ascend to the throne. With the current situation, I think that even the princess can understand the king's approach..."
"Okay, stop talking." Tang Yin looked directly at Qiu Zhen and said, "You are hurting me!"
Qiu Zhen blinked, grinned and said, "Where did your Majesty start with these words?"
"I don't want to sit on the throne. Even on the throne now, I don't want to sit on it anymore." Tang Yin said with deep feeling.
"Ah?" Qiu Zhen's eyes widened in surprise.
Tang Yin pointed to the memorial on the desk and said: "You have also seen that there are so many things that I have to deal with every day. You and I have known each other for the first time, and you should be very clear. Apart from fighting, I don't do anything.
I know how to deal with government affairs, and I don’t want to learn how to do it. I’ve really had enough of being the Wind King now.”
Tang Yin would only talk to Qiu Zhen in private about these inner thoughts. After hearing his words, Qiu Zhen shivered with fright, waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Your Majesty, please don't say such angry words lightly..."
"I'm not angry, I've really had enough." Tang Yin moved his eyes to Qiu Zhen and said seriously: "You have always been more ambitious than me and have a longer-term vision than me. When I was the head of the county,
At that time, you persuaded me to seek the throne and became the governor. You advised me to seek the throne and got the throne. You also advised me to invade the Ning Kingdom. After annexing the Ning Kingdom, you advised me to march south to conquer the world. In fact, you have always been more suitable than me.
How about being the Wind King... how about we also imitate Shenchi and I abdicate the throne to you?"
When Qiu Zhen heard this, he trembled and almost choked on his own saliva. It could be seen that the king was not testing him. He smiled bitterly and said: "If the king does this, he will kill the minister!"
"What?" Tang Yin looked at him puzzled.
Qiu Zhen said: "The world was conquered by the great king, and people only obeyed the great king, not the minor ministers. If the great king Chan were to be in the minor ministers, then I don't know how many people in the world would rise up in rebellion. The minor ministers would only have leaders."
Go to sleep and get up without a clue!"
Tang Yin took a deep look at Qiu Zhen, and after thinking about it carefully, it was true that it was true that hastily meditating on Qiu Zhen was not only not a good thing for him, but also pushed him to the gate of hell.
He sighed and said: "Forget it, I just said it casually, but don't mention it again about seeking the throne, I will never agree."
Qiu Zhen said: "If the king has no enterprising spirit, I'm afraid something will happen sooner or later!"
Tang Yin frowned and asked, "What changes will happen?"
Qiu Zhen said: "What are the soldiers in the army following the king with their heads raised, marching eastward and westward? Yes, they are loyal to the king, but everyone has selfish motives. Who doesn't want to achieve fame, be crowned king, and become prime minister?
, Take General Xiao, General Liang, and General Yuan Rang as examples. Based on their achievements, it is more than enough to be crowned king. But now, they only have a marquis. Even if the generals say nothing, it does not mean that they have no prejudices in their hearts.
, not to mention, their subordinates will also be dissatisfied and feel aggrieved!"
