1571: C1571

C1571

The fact that Shen Zhichen had managed to pull out his sword and kill himself made everyone present pale with shock.

Tang Yin took a deep breath, to calm his emotions. After that, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Today, any of you who take the initiative to return home, all the crimes and crimes you have committed in the past, I can clear them away, and let bygones be bygones. If any of you still covet my position, then, no matter who it is, as long as there is evidence of it here, this king will punish you severely!" As they spoke, Tang Yin knocked on the table until the wooden box cracked.

"The King has done a great service to this subject. Since the King has spoken today, I am willing to return to my homeland and allow those in power to do so!" The ones who spoke were Xu Bai and Hou Yuan. Their faces were filled with grief as they walked out and knelt down to Tang Yin to kowtow.

Tang Yin secretly frowned, in his memory, the information the Umbra collected did not involve the two of them.

But now, he couldn't ask them to stay. If he showed the slightest bit of reluctance, other people would see him as someone who wasn't resolute enough. If he really was forced to reveal all the evidence, who knew how many of his former brothers he had to kill!

He clenched his fist tightly. Finally, he made up his mind and said, "Correct!"

"This subject... Kowtow and thank the King! " Xu Bai and Hou Yuan's voices trembled as tears streamed down their faces. They choked with sobs as they said, "This humble subject can no longer assist the King in the future. I hope the King will take care of her health ?"

These words caused Tang Yin's tears to fall once more. He lowered his head and said softly, "I know, you all ? And take care of yourself too! "

When their lives were at stake, how could the other County Head s and County Commanders dare to continue coveting the path of affairs in front of them? One by one, they left the seats and kneeled in front of Tang Yin in a black heap, saying in unison, "This subject is useless, and is willing to give way to the capable!"

Tang Yin wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and stood up straight, then looked at the people around him. He nodded his head, pulled himself together, and said loudly: "This king is very pleased that all the brothers are willing to give up to me, but I still say the same, all of you are my brothers, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to this king for help, as long as this king can help, I will not sit idly by and do nothing."

After pausing for a moment, he turned his head to Cai Gui and said: "Xuan!"

Cai Gui bowed and acknowledged, following that, he retrieved a thick book from his sleeves, cleared his throat, and started singing: Feng Country, Tianyuan County, the original County Head Li Xian gave up his title, the original County Commandant Zhou Le gave up his position, the original County Commandant Zhou Le gave up his position, the original County Commandant Zhou Sian took up her position, under the Tianyuan County, Shi Qing will take over the position temporarily, Jia Peng will take over the position of County Lieutenant, Jiang Xin will take over the position of first in Sanshui, Tan Shuang will take over the position of County Officer ?

After he finished reading out the thirteen counties of Feng Country, he began to read out eighteen counties of Ning Country. After he finished reading out the eighteen counties of Ning Country, he began to recite the following stages of Mo Country, Huan Country, and Feng Country, which were the fifty-sixth and one hundred and fifty-five counties of Feng Country.

No one expected that Tang Yin would set up a Hongmen Feast tonight. He had already thought of a plan to remove all of the officials present, and even the person who was going to be the replacement for them had already been decided.

Not to mention the local officials who were present, even the ministers such as Shangguan Yuanji, Qiu Zhen and Zhang Zhe were shocked when they heard this. The sudden change in positions of nearly one hundred County Head s, County Commandant s, and more than two hundred County Lords and County Commanders was simply too big, and the most inconceivable thing was that such a huge matter had never been announced by the King in the imperial court. Let alone discussing it with the ministers, she hadn't even mentioned it.

Just by reading out the order to be appointed as an official, Cai Gui took more than an hour. After he finished singing all of the songs, his forehead was also covered with a layer of sweat, and his voice had become hoarse. He handed the book over to Tang Yin, bowing as he said, "Great King!"

"Yes!" Tang Yin replied as he accepted the scroll. Without even looking at it, he passed it to Qiu Zhen and said: "Everyone take a look, these new officials are all from the meticulous selection of the political hall and Military-political Hall. Everyone, look for any inadequacies."

Participant Hall and Military-political Hall?! Qiu Zhen, Shangguan Yuanji and the rest were shocked, no wonder the King did not discuss this matter in the imperial court, it was because there was a conspiracy behind the political hall and Military-political Hall.

Thinking about it here, everyone naturally looked towards the new Head Advisor of the Political Hall, Cai Gui, and the Military-political Hall Head Advisor, Gu Yuan.

These two were normally low-key people, so they never expected that they would be so ruthless in their actions. Just the two of them had managed to scheme such a huge matter for the King. The ministers looked at each other, unable to say what they felt in their hearts.

Actually, Tang Yin had his own reasons for reusing the political hall and Military-political Hall. Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen were both old people now, the current officials were their old subordinates and old brothers.

Another point was that Tang Yin did not trust the candidates recommended by the two of them.

The two were independent organizations outside of the imperial court and did not interact much with the various officials. It was because of this, that they were able to have no scruples in selecting people, and could not take personal feelings into consideration, becoming more impartial and objective.

That night, Tang Yin could be said to have done an earth-shattering thing. To suddenly change so many local officials, it could be said that it was something that no one had ever done before or would ever do.

He himself was very satisfied with such an outcome. Of course, Shen Zhichen's suicide was an accident, causing him to feel worried and sad.

After the banquet, Tang Yin did not return to his own room, but went straight to his study. He knew that Qiu Zhen, Yuanji and the others would definitely come and beg him for help later.

Not long after he entered the study, someone floated in from the outside. It was Yin Lan who he had sent to the Flower Bridge earlier.

Now, Yin Lan had officially become their member, because of her special identity, she was allowed to freely enter and leave the palace. Even when she came to meet Tang Yin, she did not need Ah San to report, instead, the two of them had to avoid her as much as possible.

"Your subordinate pays his respects to the King!" Yin Lan walked in front of Tang Yin and respectfully cupped her hands and bowed.

Seeing her, Tang Yin suppressed his sadness and excitement and revealed a smile. He waved his hand and said: "No need to be so courteous, sit down!"

"Thank you, King!"1

"You did a good job on the bridge this time. Find out about the Zhao Family's purple sandalwood ancestral hall. Make sure he can't quibble under the watchful eyes of everyone. Very good."

Tang Yin praised: "In the future, you will be like Mu Cheng, helping Gu Chen with his work, Gu Chen also needs talented people like you by his side."

After Yin Lan heard this, she could not suppress the joy in her heart, and immediately bowed: "This subordinate thanks the King for her guidance."

Initially, she was still very envious of Liu Zhang and the others, as they were able to follow the army and go on a campaign to build their own businesses. However, ever since she had joined the Shadow Clan, she had finally realized how frightening and enormous the Shadow Clan was.

Take tonight's events for example, the evidence for the crimes of the officials everywhere was basically collected using their Member of Dark Shadow. To be able to work in such a large scale and unknown spy agency, Yin Lan felt that it was both fun and fortunate. Moreover, from the King's point of view, she could be on equal footing with Gao Mucheng, which meant that she was the Vice Chairman of the Shadow Group.

Tang Yin looked at the excited Yin Lan, nodding his head in satisfaction, and said: "Gu Chen is already preparing to train the third batch of newbies, you can go along as well, that is, learn more about the Shadow and learn more about them, and also get more familiar with the brothers below, it will be more convenient for you to do things in the future."

"Yes!" Great King! This subordinate will look for Master Gu tomorrow! "

"Yes!"

Just as they were talking, following a series of knocks on the door, Ah San walked in from outside and cupped his hands together: "Great King, Prime Minister Shangguan, Prime Minister Qiu, Master Zhang and other ministers are requesting an audience with Great King!"

Sure enough, they had come. Tang Yin had long planned for them to come, so he was not surprised. He nodded and said, "Let them in!"

"Yes!" "Great King!" Ah San promised as he turned around and walked out.

Yin Lan said anxiously: "Great King, should this subordinate avoid it?"

Shouldn't he be running into someone else right now? Tang Yin sized her up and said: "No need! You can temporarily be This King's new love! " Before Yin Lan could react, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace.

Yin Lan's jade white face immediately flushed, but she did not dare resist. At this time, Shangguan Yuanji, Qiu Zhen, Zhang Zhe and the other ministers had all entered.

"Your subjects pay their respects to the King!"

Seeing a beautiful yet unfamiliar woman sitting in Tang Yin's embrace, everyone was startled, but no one dared to ask as they cupped their hands and bowed.

"Wow, so it's all here. Do you all think that This King did not do what was done tonight properly? " Tang Yin played with Yin Lan's hair, and asked with a smile.

"There is indeed something wrong!" Zhang Zhe said straightforwardly: "Changing so many local officials in one go would cause a huge commotion, and many of them are innocent ?"

"Even if there is only one guilty person, your Master Zhang will still be held accountable. Don't forget, as a Censors, you are not only in charge of managing the treasury, you are also in charge of supervising the officials. If you want this king to personally investigate this matter, what does this Censors need to do? "

With that, Zhang Zhe's face turned pale, and he lowered his head in silence.

Seeing that, Qiu Zhen continued: "Great King, Master Zhang's words are not wrong, replacing so many local officials, I am afraid, the place will become a mess."

"What kind of trouble would it cause?" Tang Yin questioned: "If we replace the corrupt officials, and send some capable and incorruptible people to manage the place, what kind of logic is that?"

"My king, there are some things that are not as simple as it seems on the surface." Qiu Zhen said anxiously: "The expansion of my territory was so fast, yet every county and county has always been peaceful and without any major upheavals. Why? Don't the people who were conquered by my wind hate us? But that's not it. They hate our country and hate the King even more. The reason they do not dare to rebel is all because of the corrupt officials in the King's eyes! "
