Final Volume Chapter 38
The Imperial Palace in Shangjing is not suitable for walking around. The structure inside is too complicated and the area is too large. Even if you just want to walk through the first floor, you will have to spend a whole day reading the full text.
Tang Yin walked up the mountain accompanied by Wuying, Asan Asi, Yin Lan, Cheng Jin and others. On the way, he often met palace maids passing by. Tang Yin asked Wuying: "How many people are there in the palace now?"
Wuying was stunned, and hurriedly took out a pamphlet, read it for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, there are more than 2,300 maids in the palace now. In the past, there were nearly 10,000 guards, but those are all He is from Sichuan and has withdrawn with the Sichuan army."
Tang Yin nodded. To manage such a large palace, the number of maids must be indispensable. He said: "The direct army has separated a corps to temporarily serve as palace guards. We have just taken over Shangjing. There must be no trouble in the palace under any circumstances."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely handle this matter well." Wuying said with cupped hands.
Tang Yin and his party walked from the first floor of the palace to the top floor of the palace. There is also a tall platform called Qingtian Terrace at the commanding heights of the top floor.
Climbing up to the Sky Tower and looking down, you can have a panoramic view of almost the entire Shangjing. It was also the first time for Tang Yin to stand on the Sky Tower, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. He said to himself: "This place is really like 'you will be at the top of the mountain, and you can see all the mountains and small mountains'."
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Wuying walked up and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, is it true that Feng Kingdom is moving its capital to Shangjing again?"
Tang Yin nodded and said: "Of course, since the emperor is returning to Shangjing, the capital of Feng Kingdom will naturally also be moved to Shangjing. This is the capital of the empire, and in the future, it will also be the capital of our Feng Kingdom."
After hearing this, everyone took a deep breath in their hearts. Not because of the need to move the capital, but because of Tang Yin's words, which obviously meant to replace them.
Wuying frowned and said: "But not long after our country moved its capital to Zhenjiang, it has already been a waste of people and money, and it is not completely stable until now. If we move the capital to Shangjing at this time, will... any trouble happen? Besides, south of Shangjing is The territory of the Sichuan Kingdom is adjacent to the Sichuan Kingdom. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate to set the capital here. Please think again, your Majesty.”
Tang Yin smiled indifferently and said: "It is precisely because Shangjing is located on the border of Fengchuan that I considered moving the capital to Shangjing. The capital is located in the important place of the country, so there will inevitably be a large accumulation of troops. In this way, it can prevent the Sichuan army from going north and make it convenient for our army at any time. Invading the Sichuan Kingdom can be described as killing two birds with one stone."
After a pause, he said with a smile: "Of course, risks and opportunities coexist. Setting the capital in Shangjing will also create a tense atmosphere, so that the ministers in the DPRK will not be too tired."
Wuying was vaguely worried, but seeing Tang Yin insisting, she didn't say anything more.
Seeing that the conversation between the two came to an end, Yin Lan immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, why don't we go back to the inn today and stay in the palace."
After finishing her words, seeing everyone around her looking at her with strange eyes, Yin Lan hurriedly explained: "Such a big palace is empty even if it is empty. Besides, the environment here is much better than that of the inn. The king should live here." ”
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this. The palace is not a place where you can live if you want. Even if it is empty, even if your side has taken over Shangjing, you still need to abide by the minimum avoidance of suspicion.
Tang Yin said calmly: "No matter how bad the conditions at the inn are, they are still better than those in the military camp. You can live in the military camp, so why can't you live in the inn?"
Yin Lan shrank her neck after being scolded and did not dare to say any more.
After wandering around the palace until evening, Tang Yin and his party left the palace and returned to the inn. On the way back to the inn, Tang Yin deliberately lifted the curtains of the carriage and looked out.
Shangjing now is almost the same as when he first came here. It is still so bustling and lively, with people coming and going, and traffic.
Although Shangjing has changed hands one after another in recent years and wars have continued, it is the capital after all. Whether it was the Zhen Army or the Sichuan Army, they would be much more restrained when they ruled Shangjing, and the people of Shangjing were not too affected by the disasters of war.
After being silent all the way, Tang Yin took the bus back to the inn and temporarily stayed in Shangjing. Having just taken over Shangjing, there were many matters to be dealt with, and Tang Yin could not handle it alone. He sent a letter to Zhenjiang and urgently transferred Shangguan Yuanji to Shangjing.
On the third day after Tang Yin moved into Beijing, a shocking news suddenly came.
This afternoon, Tang Yin was walking in the garden of the inn after lunch. At this time, Lotte and Ai Jia ran over in a hurry.
Tang Yin still had a calm face. When the two of them came closer, he asked slowly: "What happened? You are so panicked?"
"Your Majesty, something big happened," Ai Jia said first.
"What's the matter?" Tang Yin's eyes moved back and forth on the faces of Letian and Ai Jia.
"I just received the news that Prince Sichuan... died of illness on his way back to China." Letian took a step forward and whispered in Tang Yin's ear.
"What?" Tang Yin was shocked when he heard this. Xiao Xuan died of illness? Is this true? Is Xiao Xuan really dead? He frowned and asked: "Is the news reliable?"
"Your Majesty, you are absolutely reliable." Ai Jia continued: "Now all the Sichuan troops are wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety, and white flags are flying in the military camps. According to reports, the cries of the Sichuan troops can be heard outside the camp."
Lotte nodded repeatedly, indicating that Ai Jia was right. Xiao Xuan was really dead... Tang Yin still couldn't cope with the sudden news. He frowned, took two steps back, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.
He didn't speak, and it was completely silent now. People were looking at him eagerly. I don't know how long it took, but Tang Yin suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: "Immediately send people to investigate. We must find out whether Xiao Xuan died for real or faked it."
Lotte and Ai Jia looked at each other, and then they both bowed their hands and saluted, saying: "It's the king." After saying that, the two of them ran out of the inn like a whirlwind.
Tang Yin's eyes kept rolling, and he suddenly remembered something, raised his hand and said: "Ah San"
"My subordinates are here." "You should send someone to tell Mu Qing now not to return to Zhenjiang and to lead his army to Beijing immediately." Tang Yin said seriously: "Also, the Sanshui Army and the Feiyu Army must also follow Pingyuan. Come with the army."
"It's the king," Ah San agreed and ran out quickly.
At this time, Tang Yin couldn't help but feel fluttering. If Xiao Xuan is really dead, then the Sichuan Kingdom will be in chaos in the near future. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our own side to send troops. I am afraid that Xiao Xuan is... Faking death, deliberately designing to lure oneself into the trap.
In the next few days, Feng Guo's detective reports reached Shangjing like a revolving lantern. Every piece of news stated that Xiao Xuan had indeed died of illness, which was absolutely true. Even the spies of the Feng Kingdom lurking in Zhaoyang, the capital of the Sichuan Kingdom, sent back news that Zhaoyang had received an urgent letter that the King of Sichuan had died. The government and the public are now in a state of panic.
Through these successive news, Tang Yin can basically confirm that Xiao Xuan has indeed died of illness. If it is a show, it is impossible for the whole country to make a show. The cost is too high. Tang Yin made up his mind that he could not miss this opportunity no matter what.
A few days later, the Pingyuan Army, Sanshui Army, and Feiyu Army headed by Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, and Qingyu traveled all night to arrive in Shangjing. At present, the total strength of the three armies is close to 300,000, and together with the troops directly under Tang Yin's command, the total strength reaches 400,000.
After seeing Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi and Qingyu in the lobby of the inn, Tang Yin first asked: "Have you heard about the news of Xiao Xuan's death?"
The three of them looked at each other, nodded together, and said, "Report to the king, the general has heard about it."
"What do you think?"
"The general... is still not sure whether this matter is true or not." Xiao Muqing looked suspicious and said: "Prince Sichuan has always been in good health, how could he suddenly die of illness? Your Majesty, the general thinks that he may be deceitful. ”
Others may not be able to tell, but Tang Yin may have noticed that Xiao Xuan's health was not good and he was already in a state of overdraft. This time he traveled a long distance to the Shenchi and was tricked into going to Beijing by his own design. He was filled with anger and rage. Sudden death is not impossible.
He felt like a mirror in his heart, but he didn't say anything, he asked: "Mu Qing, if Xiao Xuan is deceiving, tell me, what is his purpose?"
"This..." Xiao Muqing smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "This is the strangest thing. I really can't find out what benefits King Sichuan's cheating death can bring to the Sichuan Kingdom. Logically speaking, if King Sichuan cheats his death, The purpose should be to lure our country to send troops to invade. The Sichuan Kingdom prepared an ambush in advance to give our army a head-on attack. But now Shenchi is on the side of our Feng Kingdom. Xiao Xuan should be unwilling to start a war with our country. Yes, how could he fake death to lure our army to attack? I really can’t understand it.”
Tang Yin snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "You are right. With the current situation, it is too late for Sichuan to avoid the war, so how can it possibly lead our army to attack? Therefore, I judge that Xiao Xuan really died of illness. Now is an excellent opportunity for our country to send troops.”
Xiao Muqing took a breath and subconsciously looked at Liang Qi and Qingyu, silently asking them what they meant.
The matter was so important that Liang Qi and Qing Yu also frowned tightly. After a while, Qingyu asked: "When does the king plan to send out troops? How many troops and horses will be mobilized? Will he go straight to Huanglong to invade Sichuan Capital, or will he encroach on the territory?"
Tang Yin smiled, stood up, and then raised his head to Asan and Asi on his left and right. The two men immediately took a long roll of canvas, spread it on the ground, and unfolded it. People lowered their heads and took a closer look. It turned out to be a map of northern Sichuan.
After looking around at everyone, Tang Yin walked directly to the map, took out the sword from his ribs, pointed to the map, and said: "What I want here is Shuangtang County in Sichuan Province."
Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, and Qingyu subconsciously stood up and looked down at where Tang Yin was pointing.
