"So that's how it is!" Di You nodded seriously, but the hatred in his heart made him itch.
Tang Yin's words could not convince the masses, so how could Li Dan assassinate the various dukes? The armies of the various nations had already fully occupied the Xi Tang, so even if Li Dan's mission was successful, he would still die in the end.
Di You was in the intelligence department and was well-informed that although Li Dan was staying in the palace, the actual control of the palace was still in the hands of the allied forces. Under such circumstances, unless he was crazy, he would only assassinate the kings.
This was a crime to be added. Now, Di You completely understood that the words that the allied army said before, 'To punish chastity is to follow the orders of the Son of Heaven, for the sole purpose of expelling Li Hong, who is the traitor of a nation, from the throne, and not to destroy Zhen Country', were completely fake. Not only did the allied army want to cripple Li Hong, they also wanted to destroy Zhen Country, and then divide it up further, so that Zhen Country would forever become a noun in history.
At first, it was Kong Qing who took the initiative to look for him, and asked him to help the allied army. He also believed that his old boss was definitely not a traitor, and must have also been deceived by the allied army at the time. Now that the allied army had already torn off their fake masks, Kong Qing, who had always been kept in the dark, would also be in grave danger. This was the reason why Di You came to find Kong Qing.
But right now, the alliance troops were saying that Kong Qing had already left the Xi Tang to carry out other missions. Di You, who was well aware of the dangers of life and death, had a premonition that Kong Qing was not in a good situation.
Understanding this, Di You's heart felt as though it was being cut by knives, he immediately lowered his head, afraid that Tang Yin would see the layer of mist covering his eyes. Di You did not dare to reveal the true emotions in his heart, because he did not want to lose his final chance to take revenge.
"Since it's like this ?" After a while, Di You raised his head, and laughed: "Then I will not disturb the King, I will take my leave first!" As he spoke, he cupped his hands and bowed deeply towards Tang Yin.
No matter how happy or angry Di You was in his cultivation, he was still unable to conceal the killing intent that naturally flowed out of his body. Regarding this point, Tang Yin's intuition was always very keen.
His eyes curved as he smiled and waved his hand. "It's rare for Mr. Di You to come to the army camp, why are you so anxious to go back? Why don't you stay for a while longer ?"
Before he finished speaking, the tent flap suddenly raised, and Pang Li walked in. Pang Li was obviously very surprised to see him inside Tang Yin's tent. She asked curiously: "Big Brother Di, why are you here?"
Di You looked deeply into Pang Li's eyes, and then laughed: "Actually it's nothing much, I came to the army camp to look for General Kong, and coincidentally met with Feng King, so Your Highness invited me over."
"Oh, so it's like that." Pang Li said with a smile, "Brother Di, it's too late. General Kong has already gone to the western counties to persuade the local guards, he's not in the army camp right now. Right, King? "
As she spoke, she was already snuggling up to Tang Yin like a little kitten, her small hands still incessantly rubbing against his body.
Seeing that, Di You immediately turned his gaze to the side, and said: "Feng King, it seems like I will not disturb you, goodbye!"
Tang Yin squinted his eyes and looked at Pang Li who was leaning on his side and then looked at Di You who wanted to leave. He remained silent.
Di You thought that he had tacitly agreed, so he bowed again and slowly left the tent. When he was about to leave the tent, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh, right! Not only did the Feng Army not harm the People of Zhen Country, it protected them as well. The citizens were very grateful to the Feng King, so I dared to invite the King to the Humble Residence for a meal tonight, which could be considered as my thanks in place of the citizens. "
Tang Yin was startled, but after that he smiled and lightly knocked his forehead to think, nodding he replied: "Mr. Di You please be at ease, tonight, I will definitely come to your teahouse."
"This lowly one is waiting for Your Highness to arrive!" Di You said politely, then turned and left.
Seeing Di You leave, Tang Yin did not send anyone to intercept him. Instead, he turned his head to the side to look at Pang Li, and asked with a smile: "You did that on purpose, right?"
Pang Li was at a loss, and asked: "Your Majesty, why do you say that?"
Tang Yin laughed: "You feigned intimacy with me in front of Di You." Then, he would give Di You an excuse to leave immediately.
Pang Li shook her head, and looked at Tang Yin with a hidden bitterness: "Why should I pretend to be close to the King in front of Big Brother Di? Could it be that the King suspects that there is something going on between Big Brother Di and me? "
Tang Yin was not distracted by her words. He stood up straight and looked down at Pang Li, calmly saying: "I know you are Di You's subordinate, and have a deep relationship with him. But right now, Di You has already decided to kill me. Tonight, I will send out a large army to surround Di You's tavern. I will not let any of them go, who's inside, go and choose for yourself! " After he finished speaking, he walked out without looking back.
He didn't want to keep Pang Li in suspense, so he decided to clarify everything and threw the matter of his standing to. If the Feng Army attack on the tavern empty night, it was very clear that Pang Li was the one who leaked the news. She chose to stand on Di You's side, and if Feng Army could successfully strangle Di You tonight, it would mean that Pang Li was still inclined to do the same and did not spread the news.
Tang Yin left, leaving the dumbstruck Pang Li in a daze within the big tent.
As she had always been by Tang Yin's side, she did know a lot more than Di You. Pang Li had heard about Zi Ying secretly executing Kong Qing, it was just that she did not dare to reveal it, and at this moment, she understood that the Alliance's motive was not simple, it was definitely not something that could be done if Li Hong left the side stage. In fact, it proved that her guess was right. What happened next was Li Dan was killed in the palace, and the princes and sons of officials were completely exterminated by the allied forces.
Until now, Pang Li had not regretted telling Tang Yin about the water channel. The death of Zhen Country was not important to her, but she was glad to be able to meet Tang Yin, the man who moved her heart.
But today, when she heard that Di You had been brought to Tang Yin's tent, she couldn't sit still anymore. She clearly understood that with Tang Yin's personality, he would definitely exterminate all of them.
Di You treated her like a brother and like a father, she was only in her teens yet she was being cared for by Di You and all of the spirit martial arts she learnt were taught to her by Di You. The reason she was able to have such a day was all thanks to Di You, the latter was in danger, she could not not help but save him. Thus, there was that scene just now.
Right now, Tang Yin had pushed her into a dead end. On one side was the man she loved, and on the other was her greatest benefactor.1
After an unknown period of time, Pang Li finally snapped out of her daze and looked around. There was no longer any trace of Tang Yin.
She returned to her tent like a walking corpse. She shrunk to the corner of her tent and slowly slid down to the ground, not moving for a long time. At this moment, she was making a painful choice in her heart.
If she had to choose Tang Yin and betray him, she would probably hate him for the rest of her life. If she had to choose Di You and betray him, she thought that she would never be happy again in her life. After thinking about it, she still stood up, took a piece of paper from the ink, and quickly wrote a line of words: Tonight, even if the King does not arrive, the Feng Army will definitely come, so quickly flee. After blowing the ink dry, she carefully rolled the note into a thin roll and was about to tie it to the carrier pigeon when she suddenly felt that something was wrong. She put away the scroll and strolled around the camp as if nothing had happened.
Pang Li did do intel and was good at tracking and tracking. Of course, she was also an expert in countertracking and tracking. Although she looked like she was doing it casually, she was actually observing if anyone was following her. The result was disappointing, but it didn't happen.
He really wished for someone to follow his. That would mean that Tang Yin didn't trust her and had his suspicions towards her at all times. This way, although she would be troubled by the message to Di You, at least he would feel better, but the truth was that Tang Yin trusted her so much.
Unresigned, Pang Li even intentionally went out of the camp to wander around to the Xi Tang s. However, from her secret observation, she still didn't find anyone following her. In the end, she could only give up and return to her own tent. After struggling for a while, she finally decided to release the carrier pigeon and send a message to Di You. She didn't want to let herself live her entire life filled with regret and pain, so she chose to betray Tang Yin instead. It was naturally for the best if he could understand her, but if she couldn't, then she would sentence herself to death.
Pang Li, who was born into an intelligence network, would never let her carrier pigeon leave her body. The carrier pigeon she used had also been trained by Di You and knew how to avoid danger.
She watched the carrier pigeon fly higher and higher, gradually turning into a small black dot in her line of sight, finally disappearing completely.
In the end, she decided to just go find Tang Yin and check out what was going on. She did not dare to ask him about it, so she could only wait for the evening to come.
When Pang Li arrived, Tang Yin already had an important guest in her tent, Ling Shuang.
At this time, Ling Shuang mainly came to find Tang Yin not to discuss about government affairs, but to complain. To be more precise, he came to find someone that he could pour out his heart to. She had always told Tang Yin about how brutal the both of them had been in the past few days, how they killed people, plundered money and set fires, and how Yue Ze and Li Xin treated the Zhen Country Palace as their own harem, desolated land, and so on.
In fact, even if Ling Shuang did not say anything, Tang Yin had already heard of all of this. After she finished venting her anger, he only laughed faintly and said: "As expected, it is not strange!"
"That chaotic palace ?"
"The Zhen Country is already dead. Where did the palace come from?" Tang Yin laughed as he interrupted her.
Ling Shuang was startled, but still stubbornly shook her head and said, "I still think An and Huan are going overboard with their actions."
"If you don't pass the test, naturally, someone will come to a conclusion." Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders and said, "Tonight, the two armies will arrive at the Xi Tang. As the alliance master of the allied forces, I believe that Royal Brother Xiao Xuan will handle this matter impartially."
"I'm afraid the situation will be even worse!" Ling Shuang muttered to herself. With the Ann Country And Hui Country s in the city, the Xi Tang was already a mess. If there was another Chuan Country And Mo Country s in the city, the Xi Tang s would probably be completely destroyed.
