Tang Yin's words did not mention anyone by name, but the expressions of all the ministers present changed. Those who were standing were at a loss, and those who were sitting were on pins and needles.
Liang Xing's lungs almost exploded with anger, but on the surface he remained calm and calm, chatting and laughing with Tang Yin.
Not long after, he heard a burst of messy footsteps coming from outside. Tang Yin turned around halfway and looked outside, only to see a group of people walking outside the lobby. They were all tall and strong men, and among them were stars holding the moon.
There was a person around, but because there were too many big men around, Tang Yin couldn't see clearly.
It wasn't until the person in the crowd entered the lobby accompanied by two maids that Tang Yin could see her appearance clearly.
This woman is said to be under twenty, but she looks like a child of fourteen or five years old. She is dry and thin, with not much flesh on her body, and her skin is tanned. You can guess it at a glance.
It turns out that she was born in poverty and suffered from malnutrition for a long time. However, the little girl still looks pretty and has a pair of big, watery eyes that are particularly lively.
After Tang Yin saw it, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. This is Zhan Ling! If she took away her gorgeous clothes, she would be no different from a refugee fleeing famine. Even the two little maids next to her would be more similar to her.
Miss. He turned his head to look at Liang Xing and asked: "Mr. Liang, is this Miss Zhan Ling?" After meeting Zhan Ling, Tang Yin was happy. The other ministers were also disappointed. They thought that Zhan Xiong would be like this after Zhan Ling.
What's so unusual about Ling? Now I can see that she is a girl from a poor family.
Liang Xing could naturally understand the thoughts of Tang Yin and the ministers. He sighed deliberately, shook his head and said: "Miss Zhan Ling has been harmed by an adulterer since she was a child. Unfortunately, she has been living outside and suffered a lot. But it is precisely because of this that she
Gaining blessings, escaping the persecution of the old thief Zhong Tian, and leaving the only bloodline for our royal family of Dafeng. This is the luck of our Feng country and the luck of the people of Feng!" "The country of Feng is very lucky! The people of Feng are very lucky!" Those Liang Xing's
The close ministers took the opportunity to agree and sighed in unison.
Huh! Tang Yin snorted coldly in his heart and ignored Liang Xing and those flattering ministers. He walked up to Zhan Ling and looked down at her. Maybe his daily life was too difficult and the little girl was young, but
The skin is very rough, especially on the hands, where small calluses have grown.
His sudden approach made the little girl's already tense nerves become even more tense. Her shoulders trembled, her little hands grasped the skirt of her clothes and twisted them around, and her feet subconsciously moved back little by little, just like a frightened little rabbit.
His round eyes looked at Liang Xing for help.
Just when Zhan Ling's heartbeat accelerated and her heart almost jumped out of her throat, Tang Yin, who was close to her, suddenly took a step back, a faint smile appeared on his cold face, and asked softly: "Are you Miss Zhan Ling?"
Zhan Ling did not dare to speak, but nodded timidly.
"Are you the daughter of Marquis Zhan Xiong?" Zhan Ling nodded again without saying a word.
"What's the proof?" Zhan Ling didn't need to answer this time. Liang Xing took out a jade pendant from his arms, walked up to Tang Yin, handed it to him, and said, "This is what Miss Zhan Ling brought. I and I
The great lords have verified that this is indeed the object of the late king, and the late king indeed gave it to Lord Zhanxiong!" "Oh!" Tang Yin responded, stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant, and only looked at it twice.
Then he returned his hand and stuffed it into his arms and took the jade pendant away. Liang Xing's face changed drastically when he saw this, and he said in surprise: "Master Tang, what are you..." Tang Yin shrugged and said, "This is just a small jade pendant.
It can't prove anything, not to mention that it may be a forgery. Even if it is really the property of the former king, it may be lost outside." As he spoke, he glanced at Zhan Ling again and said, "Is this Miss Zhan Ling true or false?
We will find out as soon as we enter the palace and ask." "Enter the palace?" Liang Xing and many ministers were stunned, not knowing what Tang Yin suddenly proposed to do.
Tang Yin looked at Zhan Ling with a smile, and spoke to the ministers. "As foreign ministers, we have never seen Miss Zhan Ling with our own eyes before she disappeared. However, among the ladies of the late king, she will definitely
Someone has seen Miss Zhan Ling. As long as she is brought into the palace and the ladies take a look at her, they will know the truth. My lords, what do you think?" His words are reasonable and reasonable, and this matter involves the future king of Feng Kingdom.
You must also be cautious.
Wu Yu finally expressed his stance at this time. He nodded and agreed: "What Mr. Tang said is reasonable. Real gold is not afraid of fire, and it is most safe for the wives of the late kings to identify it." As soon as he spoke, those ministers who were close to him were immediately surprised.
They all responded: "Yes, yes!" Liang Xing was not afraid to bring Zhan Ling to the palace for verification. In his opinion, this Zhan Ling was definitely genuine. If it was an outsider pretending to be Zhan Ling, it would be impossible for him to treat Zhan Xiong's family.
He knew so much about Miss Zhan Ling's situation, and it was even less likely that he would have the jade pendant given by Zhan Hua. He chuckled and said, "Since all of you intend to let the ladies verify Miss Zhan Ling's identity, I am not in a position to stop her." As he spoke, he continued
He asked Zhan Ling softly: "Miss Zhan Ling, would you like to accompany me to the palace?" It is estimated that the little girl has never seen such a huge battle in her life. So many ministers and dignitaries have long been stunned.
She didn't hear clearly what Liang Xing asked and just nodded blankly.
Seeing that she agreed, Tang Yin couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. As long as she was willing to enter the palace, everything would be easy.
Tang Yin, Liang Xing, Wu Yu, Ziyang Haochun and the civil and military generals of the Manchu Dynasty took Zhan Ling to the palace.
Now Liang Xing's mansion is well guarded. Twenty thousand Pingyuan Army officers protect a mansion. How impressive it is. However, the palace is even more tightly guarded than Liang Xing's mansion. Not only are there many soldiers, but there are also patrol formations.
It is almost non-stop, and its protection is so tight that not even a mouse can get in, let alone a human being.
When he arrived outside the palace gate and saw such a formation, Zhan Ling turned pale with fright, his legs became weak, and he did not dare to move forward.
Tang Yin, who was walking in front, stopped, turned back to look at Zhan Ling with a smile, and asked, "Is Miss Zhan Ling scared?" Liang Xing frowned secretly, walked quickly to Zhan Ling's side, and comforted in a low voice: "Miss Zhan Ling, are you scared?"
"Don't be afraid, just go into the palace and give the ladies a look." "I..." Zhan Ling wanted to say something, but Liang Xing had already pulled her sleeve and strode into the palace.
There is no king in the Feng Kingdom now, and the throne in the main hall is empty. According to the responsibilities of the ministers, Wu Yu should decide on daily affairs and government affairs, Liang Xing should be responsible for military affairs, and Zi Yanghao should be responsible for commanding troops in war.
Chun is the leader. But now that Tang Yin is in charge of the military power, Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun are all in name only and have no real power.
Although Tang Yin has the smallest official position and stands at the end of the list of officials when it comes to matters discussed in the court, the decisions on big and small matters all depend on his face. Now is no exception.
Before anyone else could say anything, Tang Yin waved his hand, and with the sound of footsteps, a guard officer ran from outside the palace. Without even looking at the other people, he walked directly to Tang Yin, knelt down on one knee, stepped in and saluted, and said: "Your Excellency,
What are your orders?" "Ladies, please come to the palace to discuss matters!" "I obey!" the guard agreed, stood up, and ran out quickly.
When all the ministers saw this, they all shook their heads secretly and sighed, daring to be angry but not daring to speak. They thought that if Zhong Tian was beaten away, the Feng Kingdom would see the light of day again, but Tang Yin with a heavy army was simply the second Zhong Tian. The difference between them
It's just that Zhong Tian went against heaven and established himself as king, but Tang Yin didn't dare to cross this bottom line.
Tang Yin didn't care what the ministers thought of him, he rolled his eyes around and made his own decisions.
After half an hour, Zhan Hua's concubines finally arrived, including Mrs. Hua Rong.
"I have met all the ladies!" Although these concubines have no real power, they are Zhanhua's wives and concubines after all. In terms of etiquette, the ministers still have to salute. While giving the salute, Tang Yin raised his eyes and looked towards
Among the concubines was Mrs. Hua Rong. The latter did not miss his questioning look and said nothing. She just nodded slightly to Tang Yin to indicate that the matter had been settled.
After receiving Hua Rong's personal confirmation, Tang Yin felt much more relieved, and the smile on his face gradually deepened.
"Ministers, please stay calm!" the ladies said one after another.
"Thank you, Madam!" After all the ministers got up, a guest concubine said with a smile: "I heard that Prime Minister Liang found Zhan Ling, the daughter of Marquis Zhanxiong. I wonder if it is true?" "What Madam said is correct!"
Liang Xing said sternly: "This time I invite you ladies to come to the hall for this very reason!" As he spoke, he looked at Tang Yin and continued: "Master Tang is very suspicious of Miss Zhan Ling's identity, so he invited
Ladies, please come and confirm!" The concubine nodded and said, "As far as I know, Lord Zhanxiong does have a daughter named Zhan Ling." Liang Xing was overjoyed when he heard this. He was really afraid that the concubines didn't know about Zhan Ling.
Where is this person? He quickly pulled out Zhan Ling who was hiding behind him, and said to all the guests and concubines: "Ladies, this is Miss Zhan Ling!" The guests and concubines all raised their eyes to look, waiting to see who Zhan Ling was.
After seeing this, the concubines were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't help laughing.
In any case, Zhan Ling is also from the royal family, and the little girl in front of her is dark and thin. How can she have the temperament and appearance of a royal family? Not to mention that Mrs. Ronghua has told them in advance, even if she has not, they will not think that
This woman is Zhan Ling.
All the guests and concubines were laughing, and the ministers were dumbfounded and looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Instead, Tang Yin asked: "I wonder why you ladies are laughing?" The older concubine among them said: "I am laughing because you sir are deceiving me for being ignorant!" These words made everyone's expressions change.
Liang Xing hurriedly asked: "What do you say, madam?" "If you want to establish a king, just do it. Why do you need to find someone to pretend to be the queen of Lord Zhanxiong? Let Lord Zhanxiong, who is under Jiuquan, have no peace.
"Ah?" Liang Xing, who was so calm and mature, couldn't help but change his face after hearing this. He asked with a slight stutter: "Madam, what you mean is...that this Miss Zhan Ling is a fake?"
