Chapter 681
Tang Yin's psychology towards Gao Liangjie is very complicated. He doesn't like or even hate Gao Liangjie, but at the same time he appreciates his talent. If he used to have his casual personality, he would never treat Gao Liangjie as a person. Liangjie stayed by his side, but now he has changed a lot and has a tolerant atmosphere.
He understands more and more that if he wants to achieve great things, it is not enough to rely on his own strength. He needs the assistance of a large number of talented and capable people. No matter whether he likes or hates these people, he has to tolerate them.
Tang Yin finally made up his mind after carefully considering the suggestion of Highlighting Festival for one night.
The next day, the latest chapter in the morning.
The ministers of the imperial court gathered in the main hall early, and when the time came, Yin Zhun slowly walked up to the hall. All the civil and military officials kowtowed and saluted. Tang Yin stood at the head of the hundred officials and only bowed to Yin Zhun. Of course, this was also Yin Zhun's special request.
"My dear friends! If you have something to do, please report it early. If nothing happens, leave the court!" Now the imperial court is like a castle in the air. Yin Zhun's rights have been completely eclipsed. In the past, he still had someone to go to Beijing to take charge of, but now he can't even take charge of things. None. The affairs of Feng Country were completely in Tang Yin's hands, and he had no control over other countries, and no one listened to him.
Since arriving in Feng Kingdom, the imperial court's morning court time has become shorter and shorter, and now, "If there is something to do, come early, and if there is nothing to do, withdraw from the court" has basically become Yin Zhun's opening statement.
Before anyone else could speak, Tang Yin bowed his hands to Yin Zhun and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
"Oh?" This is really rare, Tang Yin is actually in trouble. Yin Zhun leaned forward and asked with a smile: "Ai Qing, what do you want to tell me?"
"Since Your Majesty arrived in Feng Kingdom, none of the kings from other countries have come to meet His Majesty. This is a great disrespect to Your Majesty!" Tang Yin said in a sonorous and forceful manner: "I believe that Your Majesty should rectify the imperial court and show dignity to the world. In order to prevent the two countries from being disloyal to each other, your Majesty should order the two kings to come to see you and test their loyalty to your Majesty!"
"This..." After hearing this, Yin Zhen couldn't help but grin.
Not to mention that he has been beaten to the Feng Kingdom now. Even when he went to Beijing, he might not be able to attract the princes of various countries. Wouldn't he be humiliating himself by issuing such a decree now? On the other hand, he was unwilling to issue such an edict. He wanted to escape and did not want to face the cruel reality.
Before Yin Zhun could speak, Zuo Xiangmeng Luo suddenly asked: "What if the princes of Ning and Mo are unwilling to come to see the saint?"
Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and said, "That means the two countries have disloyal intentions!"
"Then what?"
"Any intention of disobedience is considered rebellion. I will personally lead the emperor's troops to send out troops to fight against rebellion!" Tang Yin turned around and looked directly at Meng Luo and said coldly.
Yo! This was something Meng Luo and other ministers did not expect. Tang Yin was actually willing to send troops to attack Ning and Mozambique for His Majesty's sake. Is this possible? Isn't it just a scene?
Meng Luo said no more, took a deep look at Tang Yin, cupped his hands, and returned to his original position.
When Yin Zhun heard that there was going to be another war, his face turned pale. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, no, you must never say anything about using troops again. My dear, this is actually quite good. Although the princes have not He was able to come to see the saint in time, but he did not stand up and openly oppose me, the emperor. The matter of Zhao Ning and Mo coming to see the saint is... we should discuss it later..."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yin sneered and looked around at the civil and military ministers below without looking at Yin Zhun.
Everyone was blushing, and when Tang Yin glanced at him, they all lowered their heads subconsciously.
The emperor's weakness may have something to do with his nature, but more importantly, he was frightened by the arrogance of the princes. As the emperor's close ministers, how could the ministers not feel ashamed and blush?
"How can the majestic emperor and the lord of all be controlled by the kings?" Tang Yin said seriously: "In the past, I don't know how you assisted your majesty, but now, when I am by your majesty's side, I will never give in. Your Majesty continues to be insulted by the kings. Your Majesty, I have made my decision. If Ruoning and Mo really dare to resist and disobey the decree, I will attack them and capture their princes. I will see you later!"
People will always have a bloody nature. No matter how timid Yin Zhen is, no matter how afraid of other countries, he is still the emperor after all. When Tang Yin said this, his blood boiled. He swallowed and asked in a low voice: "My beloved, if there is a war, can you?" ...can we win?"
"Haha! Your Majesty, I haven't paid much attention to the Ningmo Kingdom. It's easy to defeat the two countries." Tang Yin said with confidence.
Not to mention that the ministers below thought his words were exaggerated. Even Yin Zhun, who had ignored state affairs for many years, felt that Tang Yin was exaggerating.
Seeing that Yin Zhun was still hesitant, Tang Yin said impatiently: "Your Majesty, hurry up and deliver the decree. Don't hesitate any more!"
"But……"
"I have already said it," Tang Yin took a big step forward, stood on the steps, and said seriously: "If there is a war between the two countries, I am absolutely sure that we can win. What else is your Majesty afraid of?"
Under Tang Yin's repeated urging, Yin Zhun finally nodded helplessly and asked the maid behind him to come forward and grind. Then she picked up the pen and wrote down two imperial edicts. These two imperial edicts were passed to Ning Wang Yanchu and Mo Wang Shaofang respectively. The general meaning was that they should come to Yancheng immediately to see King Qin.
After Yin Zhun finished writing, he ordered his people to hand the imperial edict to Tang Yin and ask for his opinion.
Tang Yin took it, looked at it briefly, nodded, handed back the imperial edict, then bowed his hands and saluted, saying: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Alas! Yin Zhun couldn't help but sigh secretly. It was unknown what kind of uproar these two imperial edicts would cause when they were passed to Ning and Mo countries, and it was also unknown how much trouble they would cause! Now he could only rely on Tang Yin.
Just after writing the two imperial edicts, Yin Zhun regretted it again. He wanted to ask Tang Yin if he could not send them out, but when he looked up, he saw Tang Yin's two shining tiger eyes staring at him grimly. For no reason, Yin Zhun shuddered and instinctively lowered his head to avoid Tang Yin's gaze.
For the first time, he found that Tang Yin's eyes were so scary, like two knives.
In the end, he didn't dare to say the words of regret, and he gritted his teeth and picked up the jade seal and printed them on the two imperial edicts one by one.
With the seal on, the two imperial edicts were officially effective. Tang Yin took another step forward and walked to the table. Without Yin Zhun handing them to him, he had already reached out and picked up the two imperial edicts. Then he turned around and shouted to the people below: "Guo Feng, Li Xiao, listen to my orders!"
As Tang Yin spoke, two people walked out from the end of the ministers' ranks, both bowed and saluted, and said: "What do you want, Your Highness Feng Wang?"
Guo Feng and Li Xiao both served as Honglu Cheng in the imperial court. They were originally civil servants under Tang Yin. Because there were too many vacancies in the imperial court, they were sent to the imperial court by Tang Yin. They had no real power, but just helped the imperial court add a few people to fill the pomp.
Tang Yin walked down the steps, handed the imperial edict to the two of them, and said: "Guo Feng, you go to Ningguo to convey the imperial edict to Yan Chu; Li Xiao, you go to Moguo to convey the imperial edict to Shao Fang. Leave immediately, without delay!"
"Yes! Your Highness Feng Wang!" For Guo Feng and Li Xiao, Tang Yin's order was much more important than Yin Zhun's order. They didn't dare to delay. They bowed their bodies, raised their hands high, took the imperial edict, turned around and ran out of the hall.
During the whole process, Yin Zhun only wrote two imperial edicts, and the rest were all handled by Tang Yin.
Yin Zhun didn't feel anything, but was relieved, but the other civil and military ministers looked at each other and frowned at the same time.
Looking at Tang Yin's posture, he simply regarded himself as the emperor, which was a bit of a guest suppressing the master.
However, Tang Yin was in power and was favored by Yin Zhun. The ministers could only mutter in their hearts, and no one dared to say a word of doubt.
Looking around at the ministers who dared to be angry but dared not speak, Tang Yin was very satisfied. Today, he was so tough to let the ministers know who is the real master in the land of Fengguo.
Yin Zhun cleared his throat and asked, "My dear, is there anything else to discuss?"
Tang Yin said, "Your Majesty, I have one more thing."
Oh, why is it so... Yin Zhun sighed, but still had a smile on his face and asked, "My dear, what else do you want?"
Tang Yin said faintly, "Recently, I often hear that the families of the adults in the court are rampant in Yancheng and do whatever they want. I can ignore the previous things, but if similar things happen again in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless. Please investigate it clearly at that time!"
"Oh? There is such a thing?!" Yin Zhun frowned, nodded repeatedly, and agreed, "What you said is reasonable. If there is such a thing again, as long as it is found to be true, you will deal with it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Tang Yin bowed his hands.
The ministers didn't know who Tang Yin was referring to, and they couldn't help but mutter to themselves that they had to tell their families to be careful after returning home, and never let Tang Yin get into trouble.
Right Prime Minister Guo Tong secretly wiped his cold sweat. Fortunately, he had visited Tang Yin first, otherwise he would be in trouble if the matter was exposed in the court.
Tang Yin said to Yin Zhun: "I have nothing to report."
Yin Zhun sighed, looked around at everyone, and asked: "Where are the ministers?"
"I have nothing to report!"
"Okay! Dismissal!" Yin Zhun stood up, walked out of the hall under the kneeling of the ministers.
After Yin Zhun left, Tang Yin straightened up and walked out of the hall with a smile on his face.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Guo Tong caught up with him and whispered with a smile on his face: "I thank your Highness Feng Wang."
Tang Yin asked with a smile: "What does Minister Guo thank me for?"
"It's... about my son..."
"Oh! Minister Guo, don't worry about it. If you didn't mention it, I would have almost forgotten it." Tang Yin said generously.
"I don't know if your Highness Feng Wang is free tonight. I'm preparing a banquet at home to welcome you."
