Hearing that Tang Yin had accepted Lei Zhen's request, Qiu Zhen secretly grinned, walked up quickly and said in a low voice: "Great King, if we use this precedent, I am afraid ? There will be endless troubles in the future! "

His considerations weren't unreasonable. If Lei Zhen's request to 'stay in the Feng Country, and not go on an expedition abroad' were to be accepted by the King, then how could the other generals possibly make the same request tomorrow? If none of the generals were willing to go out, then who would be the leader in the future?

Tang Yin understood Qiu Zhen's concerns, he muttered to himself for a moment, and said: "This is the only time, and it will not happen again!"

Sigh! Qiu Zhen sighed and did not speak further.

How could Lei Zhen let go of such an opportunity? Afraid that Tang Yin would go back on his words, he took a deep breath, kowtowed and said loudly: "This general thanks the King for her grace!"

Tang Yin smiled, but his smile was forced, he waved and said: "Stand up!"

After Lei Zhen joined the army, the sixteen Spiritual Martial Expert s that were filtered out after Tang Yin issued the Na Wu Decree all entered the Feng Country army. These sixteen people, later on they were also known as the sixteen generals of the Supreme Wind.

Tang Yin was recruiting for the Feng Country, accumulating his energy and vitality. He had also consecutively issued a command order and a martial order, selecting a large number of talented people for the Feng Country competition. These, as well, laid a solid foundation for the second battle with the Feng Country.

The thing to do next was to wait, and wait for King Mo Shao Fang to come to him. She would hold final negotiations on the matter of the two countries allying to eliminate Ning.

Leaving Lei Zhen to reunite with his family, Tang Yin brought him back to the Duke Palaces.

Along the way, Qiu Zhen said with a wry smile, "Your highness, you sure are good to Lei Zhen!"

Knowing what he was referring to, Tang Yin laughed: "He has the ability to do so, doesn't he?"

Qiu Zhen nodded his head, the power of Lei Zhen's Spirit Force was obvious to all, in the entire Feng Country, only Shangguan Yuan would be able to match up to him. Thinking about Shangguan Yuanyang, Qiu Zhen raised his head and said thoughtfully: "Thinking about it, Yuanyu's injuries should also be more or less healed."

Tang Yin laughed and said: "The war to eliminate Ning cannot be avoided without giving way."

"Why not let me return to the capital, and focus on recuperating my injuries. Staying at the Hedong might not be good for my recovery!" Qiu Zhen was a little worried.

How could Tang Yin not want to bring Shangguan Yuan back? He shook his head and said: "With the Yuan Qi, the Ning Army would not dare to cross the river to invade. With the Hedong, the mob would not dare to cause trouble.

Qiu Zhen laughed with his head tilted upwards, this was the effect of a famous general.

As he was walking toward the Duke Palace, Qiu Zhen was stunned for a moment. Then, he pointed ahead and said, "Great King, the place in front of us where the black smoke is rising from seems to be... It's the Duke Palace! "

"Eh?" Hearing this, Tang Yin looked up. It was true, smoke was billowing from the direction of the Duke Palaces, although he could not see the light of the fire, the smoke was not small.

He wrinkled his brows, and without saying anything further, he urged his warhorse and galloped towards the manor. Qiu Zhen anxiously shouted to the left and right: "Quick, keep up with the King and protect him strictly!"

As they got closer and closer to the Duke Palaces, Tang Yin became more and more sure that the thick smoke was coming from the Duke Palaces. He didn't know what was going on, but he was burning with impatience. He galloped like a whirlwind at top speed.

Before they could even reach the Duke's Mansion, they had already reached the street when a Feng Soldier ran over to them in a hurry. Tang Yin slowed down his horse and asked loudly: "What's going on inside the palace? Why is there a fire? "

"Reporting to the King, it was a fire in the woodshed. It has been extinguished!" A Guard Captain took the lead to rush in front of Tang Yin, interfering and saluting him.

The woodshed was on fire? After Tang Yin heard this, he calmed down and asked with a cold face, "Everything is fine, why would there be a fire in the woodshed?"

"This ?" Guard Captain wiped her cold sweat and said, "General Wang is currently investigating, I do not know the specific reason."

"Humph!" Tang Yin did not ask anymore questions, and rushed to the manor. He dismounted and walked inside with big strides.

After entering the manor, the interior was in complete chaos. Servants, servants, and guards were shuttling back and forth. Everyone was shouting for their horses, and it was bustling with noise and excitement.

Tang Yin took a deep breath, and headed straight for the firewood house that was in trouble.

The woodshed was already under the control of a large number of guards. Looking inside, the large woodshed was completely burnt away, leaving only a pile of broken bricks and tiles. Fortunately, they were discovered in time and the fire was immediately controlled, or else who knows how many houses would be affected!

Tang Yin clenched his fists and called out: "Who is in charge of this place now?"

Just as he said that, a general ran out of the crowd and came to stand in front of Tang Yin. He knelt down on one knee and greeted, "General Wang An greets the King!"

Wang An held the position of a lieutenant and was specifically assigned to the defense of the palace. Now that the palace had become the palace, this Lieutenant Wang An had become the 'Head Protector of the Courtyard'.

Tang Yin looked at him and asked: "Have you found out the reason for the fire in the woodshed?"

Wang An whispered, "Also ?" Not yet. "

Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and asked: "Then how did you, a lieutenant, do it? If you can't even find out about such a big matter, what use do I have for you? "

Wang An's body trembled and he almost fell to the ground. He said shakily, "Please calm your anger, your majesty. I will find out the reason for the fire as soon as possible ?"

Before he finished speaking, a young man in black robes with a broken blade by his waist appeared out of nowhere, he quickly walked in front of Tang Yin and interposed as he bowed, saying: "Subordinate Zhang Xiao greets the King!"

Zhang Xiao? Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then remembered who he was. In the past, Cheng Jin had mentioned to him before that the new captain of Underworld Arrow Squad Two was called Zhang Xiao.

He sized up this person. Zhang Xiao's outer appearance and name did not match at all, his face did not have the slightest hint of a smile. After looking for a while, he asked, "What is it?"

Zhang Xiao looked to his left and right, took a step forward and whispered into Tang Yin's ears, "The firewood house's fire should be related to Princess Shao Xuan."

"Eh?" Tang Yin looked at him suspiciously, "Didn't I lock her up in her room?"

Zhang Xiao said expressionlessly: "A guard can't stand Princess Shao Xuan."

Hearing that, Tang Yin did not know if he should laugh or be angry, Shao Xuan had never learnt the Spirit realm before, and was only a thirteen year old little girl, how could the guards not look at her? However, hidden arrows were always strict. They would never speak carelessly without any evidence.

After a moment of silence, he asked, "How did she get out?"

Zhang Xiao replied: "This subordinate does not know where Princess Shao Xuan got this kind of strange medicinal powder, it would be extremely itchy on people's bodies, only after taking a bath could it stop itchy. The guards at Princess Shao Xuan's courtyard were all driven away by this kind of thing."

In Tang Yin's royal palace, the guards were like a protective net on the surface, while the hidden arrows were like a protective net hidden in the shadows.

Listening to Zhang Xiao's narration, Tang Yin's brows furrowed even deeper. Why is this girl so full of tricks?! Where did you get all this weird stuff? After Zhang Xiao finished speaking, he asked snappily: "Where is she now?"

"She has already returned to the princess' room."

Tang Yin no longer asked any further questions and aggressively turned towards Shao Xuan's courtyard.

At this time, he felt that his hands had started to itch again and an urge to spank Shao Xuan emerged in his heart.

The woodshed was in chaos, but Shao Xuan's place was unusually quiet. The guards outside the courtyard all had crooked armors, their clothes were in disarray, and their expressions were ugly.

Seeing that the King had arrived, the guards hastily tidied up their armors before kneeling down in salute.

Tang Yin's face was gloomy, and he asked: "Is Shao Xuan inside?"

"Yes ?" Yes, my King! " The leading Guard Captain replied with a trembling voice.

"Did she go out just now?" Tang Yin casually asked.

"Subordinate... "This subordinate doesn't know ?" Seeing Tang Yin's piercing gaze on him, he was so frightened that he shivered. He lowered his head to the point where he almost buried his face in his knees, not daring to even breathe.

Seeing that, Tang Yin understood the gist of it, it seemed like Zhang Xiao was not lying. He walked into the courtyard and entered the main house, at the same time asking in a stern voice: "Where is Shao Xuan?"

When the Maidservant who served Shao Xuan saw Tang Yin rushing over angrily, they were so scared that they kneeled down and one of them replied in a trembling voice, "He's ? "In the bedroom ?"

Tang Yin walked through the crowd, pushed open the door and walked into Shao Xuan's bedroom.

Taking a look, Shao Xuan was indeed there, sitting on the bed and embroidering something with complete seriousness.

Tang Yin clenched his fists and walked forward. Without waiting for a reply, he snatched the white silk embroidered by Shao Xuan.1

Ah!

Shao Xuan screamed in fear, she raised her head, with her big eyes, she looked at Tang Yin pitifully.

Seeing her pitiful and innocent look, Tang Yin felt his heart soften for a moment. However, when he thought about Shao Xuan's viciousness, his fury once again burned to his head. This time, her young miss had burned a woodshed, so next time, he might even burn the entire Duke Palaces. If he didn't teach her a lesson, then perhaps before Shao Fang could even go to Yan City and take her away, he would be homeless.

With a cold voice, he asked, "You did it again, didn't you?"

"Wh ?" "What?" Shao Xuan blinked her eyes and pretended to be at a loss.

"Stop playing dumb with me!" Tang Yin bent down suddenly and pressed both hands on the beds on both sides of Shao Xuan. The two people's faces were not even three inches apart. He asked word by word, "You dare to say that the fire in the woodshed has nothing to do with you?"

When she thought that she was done, Shao Xuan knew that she had committed a huge mistake this time. Looking at her handsome face that was close to him, her eyes rolled around, looking out the window, she anxiously said: "Today's weather is really good, let's go for a walk outside!" As she spoke, she moved her little butt to get out of bed.

Tang Yin did not speak, nor did he move. Both of his arms had no intention of giving way, and at the same time, both of his eyes were staring straight at her.

Shao Xuan's two sides were caught by Tang Yin's arms, and with him blocking in front of him, he couldn't go anywhere.

The innocence in her face changed first to anger, then to helplessness, then to fear, and finally to innocence and pity.

She carefully and gently pushed at Tang Yin's arm and whispered: "I ? "I didn't mean to ?"
