Yin Zhun and the others had been fleeing northwards, and now that they had entered the Ba Pass, the worries and worries they had for the past few days had finally passed. The people couldn't hold on any longer, many of them immediately slid off their war horses and fell to the ground after entering the city.
Qiu Zhen and Ying Bu had yet to meet with Sheng Yue but they had already anxiously commanded the soldiers below to support the exhausted ministers, family members and guards to rest. For a moment, the Ba Pass City was a mess as well.
Tang Yin invited Yin Zhun, Yin Rou and the other imperial concubines into the General's Mansion. Originally, he had planned to talk a few more words with Yin Rou, but seeing her exhausted face, he could only give up and ask the servants of the General's Mansion to prepare a room, warm water, and eat and drink. He allowed the Son of Heaven, Princess Geng, and Geng Fei to wash their bodies first, eat and drink their fill before resting.
Afterwards, Tang Yin arranged all the people from the General's Mansion outside the residence, leaving behind the little Maidservant as the scout. He then transferred some heavy soldiers from the defending troops to guard the General's Mansion, and after he finished everything, the sky turned dark.
Fortunately, there were a lot of empty houses in the city, so Tang Yin wasn't unable to find a place to stay. He stayed in an empty house that was right next to the general's mansion, and after a simple bath, he prepared to lie down and have a good night's sleep.
In these past few days, the distance that Tang Yin had travelled was not much shorter than Yin Zhun and the others, so it would definitely be a lie to say that he was not tired.
But before he could lie down, Qiu Zhen and Ying Bu had arrived.
Seeing Tang Yin sitting on the side of the bed, looking like he wanted to sleep, Qiu Zhen and Ying Bu looked at each other and said at the same time: "Since the King wants to rest, then I will take my leave first."
Tang Yin waved his hand and said: "If you have something to say, say it first!"
Qiu Zhen didn't speak immediately, but nodded towards Ying Bu, allowing him to speak first.
Ying Bu understood, cupped his hands and said: "Great King, the Chifeng Army has already reached the Ba Pass, and is now stationed outside it."
"Very good, you can be considered to have arrived quite slowly." Tang Yin nodded in satisfaction. The speed of a hundred thousand strong army could also be said to be quite impressive. It was naturally incomparable to the speed at which he rode his horse.
Ying Bu carefully asked, "Great King, look ? Do we have to station our Chifeng Army outside the city or camp it inside the city? "
Tang Yin smiled and said: "You are the general of Ba Pass, so you decide this matter. If you want Chifeng Army to be stationed inside the city, you don't have to worry about the matter of food, I will inform the surrounding counties to deliver food and supplies. "
Ying Bu relaxed after hearing this and bowed, "Thank you, Great King." After pausing for a moment, he asked again, "Great King, may I know how many days the Son of Heaven will be staying at the Ba Pass?"
If the Son of Heaven came, it was very likely that he would also attract the Chuan and Zhen Xing troops over. Ying Bu was extremely busy in the next few days, so he needed to supervise and urge the Generals And Soldiers of Self Army day and night to continue strengthening the city's defenses and strengthen his Ba Pass. In that case, he might have to slow the Son of Heaven down.
Tang Yin thought for a while, then said: "It won't be long, we'll leave the day after tomorrow at the latest."
"This subject understands." Ying Bu replied and had nothing else to ask.
Tang Yin looked at Qiu Zhen and asked: "Qiu Zhen, is there anything else you need?"
Qiu Zhen nodded his head, he did not say a word and glanced at Ying Bu.
Ying Bu was clever, he immediately understood what Qiu Zhen meant, he cupped his hands and bowed to Tang Yin, and said: "Great King, this humble subject will take his leave for now."
Receiving Tang Yin's approval, Ying Bu carefully left the bedroom.
After he left, Qiu Zhen then asked: "I wonder where your majesty is planning to place the Son of Heaven?"
With regards to this matter, Tang Yin had really not thought about it carefully. He was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Of course it's settled at the Yan City."
Qiu Zhen smiled and asked: "Yan City only consists of a palace, there is no palace. Where does the King want the Son of Heaven to live when she returns to his Yan City?"
Tang Yin leaned his body slightly backwards, supporting his chin, he began to seriously consider the question. That's right, where did he put the Son of Heaven? He retorted, "Don't say that there isn't a palace in the Yan City, there isn't even a complete Feng Country. Qiu Zhen, what do you think? "
Qiu Zhen said: "The Wan City has the King's Palace, so the Palace can be used as a foundation, expanded outwards, and transformed into a imperial palace."
Tang Yin frowned, and said faintly: "What you mean is, to settle the Son of Heaven within the Wan City ?"
"That's right!" Qiu Zhen nodded his head, and said seriously: "Wan City is close to Yan City, the distance between the two is less than four hours, so we should settle the Son of Heaven in Wan City, that is, it will not interfere with our internal affairs, and it will also make it convenient for the King to control the Son of Heaven."
"Oh." Tang Yin lowered his head, deep in thought.
His rationality told him that Qiu Zhen's idea was not bad, killing two birds with one stone. However, he did not want to do that with his senses.
The reason why he risked so much to welcome the Son of Heaven into the wind was entirely because of Yin Rou. Now that he finally managed to bring Yin Rou into the Feng Country, he had to separate himself and her once again. Regardless of how close the Wan City was, it was still not a city after all. It was impossible for a ruler of a nation like Tang Yin to head towards the Wan City every day.
He did not reply Qiu Zhen immediately. After thinking for a while, he said: "This matter ? Let me think about it. Ba Pass is still far from Yan City, let's talk about it after Yan City! "
Qiu Zhen secretly sighed, Tang Yin's personality was usually straightforward and decisive, but once she got involved with Yin Rou, she immediately became indecisive. Everyone said that beauties are trouble, it was true!
Tang Yin was unwilling to talk more, so he could not force it. He cupped his hands and said: "This humble subject is fine, your majesty should rest early!"
"You too. You still have to follow me back to the Yan City. There's a long way to go, so you should rest and recover your spirit first. It's fine to let Ying Bu manage the matters of the Ba Pass. "
"This humble subject understands." Hearing Tang Yin's warning, Qiu Zhen's heart immediately warmed. After bowing once more, he quickly left.
The next day.
Tang Yin went to the General's Mansion early in the morning, wanting to bring Yin Zhun and the others to start a journey early and return to the Yan City.
However, the General's Mansion inside was extremely quiet, like an empty palace. After much difficulty, he finally found a small Maidservant and asked around. It turned out that the Son of Heaven was still sleeping, and the Princess had not woken up yet.
Tang Yin knocked his forehead, just as he was about to send the little Maidservant away, he suddenly thought of something, and said: "Take me to the princess's room."
"Yes sir!" The little Maidservant respectfully promised.
Not just anyone could go to the princess's room, but Tang Yin was the Feng King and he was the ruler of the Feng Country. Who would dare to go against his wishes?
The little Maidservant led Tang Yin into a side courtyard. This courtyard was very small, with only two rooms, a main house and a side room.
Just as he entered the courtyard, Tang Yin saw Xiao Min and a few Female Guard s.
Knowing that this was definitely the princess' room, he sent the little Maidservant away and quickly walked over.
Although Xiao Min was the Guard Captain, and was responsible for the safety of the princess, she was still human and needed rest and sleep. When Tang Yin arrived, Xiao Min and a few of the Female Guard were sitting on the steps outside the main house, napping with their heads lowered.
Seeing that, Tang Yin laughed, Xiao Min and the guards were all asleep, thus saving himself the effort of speaking up.
When he reached to the center of the courtyard, he suddenly released Black Fog s from his surrounding, and then disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already behind Xiao Min and the rest of the guards.
He reached out his hand and gently pushed at the door. With just a slight push, the door opened a crack.
Just as Tang Yin was about to slip in, Xiao Min, who was sitting on the stairs, suddenly shook his head. She turned his head and saw Tang Yin crawling into the Princess's room.
If her opponent was not Tang Yin, she would have pulled out her sword to fight him. Looking at the exalted ruler of an empire acting as though he was a thief, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Tang Yin anxiously turned his head, and saw Xiao Min's bright eyes staring straight at him, his old face immediately flushed red. Luckily the surrounding Female Guard were not woken up from their slumber, he laughed dryly and said softly, "I saw that you fell asleep, so I didn't disturb you ?" Oh, I want to go in and see the princess. "
According to the rules, as long as Tang Yin and the princess were not married yet, they would not be able to enter the princess' room without permission. But now that Xiao Min was too lazy to bother about the troublesome rules, she nodded his head, but still reminded him in a small voice: "The princess is resting, please do not take advantage of the princess when she is asleep."
Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, pretending to be dissatisfied as he muttered: "Do you see the kind of people I am?"
Xiao Min was amused by his words, and slowly shook her head. If she knew what Tang Yin was thinking at this moment, she definitely wouldn't be able to laugh.
I'm not that kind of person, and I do that kind of thing! Tang Yin smiled sinisterly in his heart with an innocent expression.
He sidled into the Princess's room and closed the door behind him.
This was not Yin Rou's room in the first place, but the unique fragrance of Yin Rou's body was wafting in the air.
Tang Yin couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt refreshed, and felt like his feet were floating.
He took light steps, and without making a sound or breath, walked to the front of the bed. What he saw was a face that belonged to Zhang Xiu's peerless sleeping appearance.2
Not to mention that Yin Rou was in deep sleep, even if she was in a light sleep, it would be impossible to detect that Tang Yin was approaching them intentionally.
He stood still by the side of the bed, looking at the soundly asleep Yin Rou, unknowingly, he started to stare blankly, as if he had lost his soul.
After an unknown period of time, even Tang Yin's legs started to feel numb, and he finally regained his senses.
At the same time, he reached out his hand and caressed Yin Rou's slightly pale white face.
This was the first time he had come into such close contact with Yin Rou. Like his imagination, Yin Rou's skin was smooth and exquisite, tender and elastic, and the comfort coming from her fingertips made Tang Yin feel like she couldn't let go.
He was very clear on his own feelings. No matter how deep Yan Lie's feelings for the crystal was for him, or how similar Yin Rou and the crystal was, he liked Yin Rou not only because of her beautiful appearance, but also because of her noble but not spoiled personality. He liked the strength she displayed in times of danger.
In his mind, Yin Rou was the woman who truly matched up to him, the woman who was worthy of him being loyal to everything and being loved with her life. He had never felt such a strong possessive desire for anyone.
Yin Rou, who was still in deep sleep, seemed to also feel someone touching her. She mumbled indistinctly, stretched out her hands to grab onto the palm on her face, then took the opportunity to pull it down. She tightly hugged it, turned over, and fell asleep again.
Under the pulling force, Tang Yin also fell onto the bed, becoming the same bed as Yin Rou. He wanted to pull back his arms, but Yin Rou held his tightly, afraid that she would wake her up, so Tang Yin let her.
