Tang Yin was angry at Qiu Zhen, so he decided to hide in his courtyard.
That night, Qiu Zhen requested to see Tang Yin. At this time, Tang Yin's anger had dissipated by a lot, and he received Qiu Zhen in the study.
When Qiu Zhen had gotten closer, while Tang Yin was eating and watching him play, he waited for Qiu Zhen to stand still in front of him. After greeting him respectfully, Tang Yin did not even raise his head and asked: "Qiu Zhen, are you here for the matters of the day again?"
Qiu Zhen said bluntly: "This humble subject has come for the matters of the day."
Tang Yin looked at him strangely, sighed, and laughed: "Then, how are you going to convince me this time? You want to tear my clothes apart again? "
Qiu Zhen said with a stern expression: "Great King, for Feng Country, how many of my soldiers sacrificed themselves for you? All I want is for you to marry Princess Shauna, don't tell me that not even the Great King can agree?"
Tang Yin put down his chopsticks, pondered for a moment, and replied with a question: Even if I agree to this, even if Bei Sa can acquiesce to our request to help Tia, to fight against Dookie, who would I send to Tia, and which army would I send? After the rage subsided, Tang Yin calmed himself and started to carefully ponder over Qiu Zhen's suggestion. He also felt that Qiu Zhen's idea was not unreasonable.
Qiu Zhen said without even thinking about it, "With General Liang Qi taking the lead, we can shoulder this heavy responsibility."
"Oh!" Tang Yin responded, and did not reply immediately. In the war against Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country, the loss of Sanshui Army was indeed not big, but the war had just ended, and the upper and lower officers were abnormally exhausted. At this time, they had also sent their Sanshui Army to go on an expedition and fight in Tia.
But coming back to it, the current set up of Sanshui Army was relatively complete, and to send other Legions, it would be inferior to Sanshui Army! Tang Yin thought for a while, then raised his head and said slowly: "We're going to war again."
During this period of time, Feng Country battled non-stop. First, it was used against Ning, then, it resisted the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country, and now, it was going to help Tia. Tang Yin's heart was filled with a sense of tiredness.
Qiu Zhen saw that Tang Yin's attitude had started to soften, and was afraid that he would go back on his word. He anxiously said: "Great King, our army is not helping Tia for nothing, we can take this opportunity to propose all sorts of conditions."
"Oh?" Tang Yin's spirit was roused, and he asked: "Tell me, what conditions can we propose?"
"First, Tia must provide for the expenses of our army and compensate us for all our losses in the war. Secondly, after repelling the Dookie Army team, Tia had to admit that she was a Subordinate Country. Thirdly, all kinds of skills from Tia must be transferred to the Feng Country, and they are unconditional. "Since there are three points, we can only help Tia if Tia accepts them all."
Tang Yin was overjoyed after hearing what Qiu Zhen said. Although there were only three points, these three were still quite harsh. He asked, "Will Tia accept such a condition?"
"Definitely." Qiu Zhen vowed: "Because Tia has no other choice."
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded his head, narrowed his eyes, and thought for a while. Finally, he made a decision in his heart, and sternly said: "Send a message to Zhang Zhe, write down all three of the things you just mentioned, and let Zhang Zhe go talk to Tia envoy."
"The King is wise!" Seeing that Tang Yin had finally accepted the offer for the army, Qiu Zhen was overjoyed, bowing with his hands cupped in front of him. Then he asked, "Then... The matter of the King proposing marriage to Bessar... "
Tang Yin did not want to talk about this matter anymore, so he casually said: "I'll do as you say!"
In the morning, Tang Yin was still arguing with Qiu Zhen in the imperial court until the night time when he calmed down and accepted all of Qiu Zhen's suggestions. Tang Yin's personality had an impulsive and rebellious side to it, but he had a great advantage. He could differentiate between what opinions were beneficial to him, and what opinions were unhelpful to him.
Having just ended the war against Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country's invasion, Feng Country was about to start again. However, the opponent this time was once Feng Country's former ally, Dookie. According to Qiu Zhen's suggestion, Tang Yin had set up Sanshui Army to go to war. After all, Dookie was not a powerful country and their military strength was not high. If Feng Country were to fight with Dookie, it would not require the entire nation's strength.
In Liang Qi's heart, he had long since believed that Dookie was an unkind nation, and was a huge threat that harbored malice towards Feng Country. Tang Yin ordered him to direct his Sanshui Army to Tia, to fight Dookie Army, Liang Qi did not even think about it, and immediately accepted the order. But he gave Tang Yin a condition that he wanted a great general to follow him, and Shangguan Yuan yield.
Right now, there was no war in the Feng Country, so Shangguan Yuan was only free to stay at home even if he stayed in the capital. Tang Yin asked Shangguan Yuan for his intentions, and seeing that the latter did not object, he agreed to Liang Qi's request and sent Shangguan Yuan to go with him to Tia Ya.
As for the Yan City, they had already left the capital and were stationed at the Tong Gate. As they prepared to go, they waited for the results of the Liangzhou negotiations.
On Yan City's side, Tang Yin sent an envoy to Beisa to propose marriage to the King of Beisa, Sanchez Feng Prosperous, in hopes of marrying Princess Beisa, Shauna.
Tang Yin did not have much hope towards his proposal, he knew that Dookie's Prince, Pawel, had always been chasing after Shauna, and Sanchez did not have any clear objections either, that was a long time ago. He did not know how much their relationship had improved, and it was unknown as to who King Bessa would betroth Shauna to!
In the following days, Tang Yin once again returned to his busy work.
All sorts of proposals would be sent to the Yan City every day, and in the end, they would be gathered at Tang Yin's place. As long as he did not listen to them, the proposals would pile up like a mountain. Allowing Tang Yin to lead his troops to war and charge into battle was fine, but letting him handle the paperwork was different.
In these past few days, he had not even been able to step out of the Duke Palaces' doors, and he rarely was even able to walk out of the study room. He had buried his head in the study room for three whole days, but he finally could not take it anymore. He urgently summoned Shangguan Yuanji to the Duke Palace, so that he could take care of all the official affairs.
Shangguan Yuanji did not dare to easily take over, out of these proposals, there were many that had huge amounts of money on them, and even as a Right Prime Minister, he did not have the authority to approve them, so they could only be approved by the Sovereign King herself.
Tang Yin had already made up his mind to let this go completely, and ignore Shangguan Yuanji's objections as well, forcing the work at hand onto him. At the same time, he also brought up's responsibility, and if Shangguan Yuanji handled this matter well, then there would be a huge reward.2
Of course, Tang Yin could also understand that Shangguan Yuanji's energy was limited, so he had to busy himself with the work of his Right Prime Minister and the matters that should have been handled by the Sovereign King, with no way to handle them, so Tang Yin suggested that Shangguan Yuanji should look for his Minister of Imperial Court and the Prime Minister's Secretary General to handle these matters together.
What he did was to have a monarch's cabinet system, and to delegate the monarch's power to the Minister to the maximum extent, so that the cabinet formed by the ministers could become the actual administrator of the country. The monarch's existence was more inclined towards symbolism and spiritual leadership.
Under normal circumstances, a monarch wouldn't voluntarily delegate his power, either through the advancement of civilization or through revolution. But Tang Yin was not a person of this era, and his thoughts were much more advanced than those of this era, and he was a person who feared trouble. The greater his power, the more things would happen, and he would become the sovereign of a nation.
On the other hand, Tang Yin was the complete opposite. As long as there was a chance, he would immediately give the rights that should belong to him to the ministers under his command.
Tang Yin's way of doing things could be described as enlightened in a nice way, but in reality, it was just because he was too lazy and didn't have a strong desire for power.
Now that he had pushed all the work on hand to Shangguan Yuanji, without the entangled government affairs, Tang Yin was finally able to relax. The first thing he did was to change into casual clothes, exit the Duke Palaces, and walk around outside to relax.
Right now, the Yan City was becoming more and more bustling and lively, and there were also gathering the geniuses and merchants from both Fengning and Ningxia. The streets were crowded with people, and there were endless numbers of them.
Accompanied by the Brother Shangguan and Ah San, Tang Yin strolled to the Military Weapons Division. The Military Weapons Division was located in a very important area of the South of City and was heavily guarded by many soldiers.
Reaching there, Tang Yin suddenly wanted to see what Xia Yufu was doing right now. However, he was wearing casual clothes, so it was not convenient for him to enter. Furthermore, the soldiers guarding the gate would not allow him to enter.
Just as he was thinking about how to pass through the guard, he coincidentally saw Xuan Wang walking out of the Military Weapons Division gate in a hurry. Tang Yin's eyes lit up, and he walked forward with large strides.
Without waiting for him to get close to Xuan Wang, the latter's guards on his left and right stepped forward quickly and stopped him. The guards looked at Tang Yin warily and asked coldly at the same time, "Who are you? What are you trying to do? "
When Xuan Wang, who was walking ahead with his head down, heard this, he raised his head and saw that he was facing Tang Yin's gaze. Xuan Wang was startled for a moment, then ran over and pushed aside the guards who had stopped Tang Yin, bowing respectfully as he said: "I did not know that Your Majesty would be here today, this humble subject did not welcome you from afar, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Hearing Xuan Wang calling this cloth-clothed youth king, the surrounding guards all simultaneously shivered, standing in place, completely dumbfounded.
Tang Yin didn't blame the guards. He smiled at Xuan Wang and asked: "Where are you going, Master Xuan? "Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Xuan Wang smiled bitterly and said: "This humble subject wants to make a trip out of the city."
"Where to?"
"Jiqiao Manor."
The Xia Clan's Jiqiao Manor was originally located within the Ning Country, but because Xia Yufu had eliminated the Dragon Scale-flaying Arrow in Tang Yin's possession, it attracted the displeasure and hatred from the Ranger of Ning Country. In order to avoid trouble and strife, the Jiqiao Manor was forced to migrate to the borders of the Feng Country, and their location was located in the western suburbs of the Yan City.
Tang Yin asked in confusion: "Why are you going to Jiqiao Manor?"
Xuan Wang said helplessly: "The blueprint that Miss Yufu sent over ? This humble subject has many things that I do not understand and would like to consult her face to face. " Xuan Wang was the manager of the Military Weapons Division, her rank was not very high, but it was bestowed with a high rank, and was considered a second rank official. On the other hand, Xia Yufu's rank was the Prime Minister's Secretary General, was considered a third rank, and was two ranks lower than Xuan Wang.
