"Your Majesty, everything is fine." Cai Gui cupped his hands and said.

"Safe and sound?" Tang Yin patted the report on the table and said: "But the reports from the Ning Country s are not as such." He randomly picked up a report, opened it and said: "Shaoling County, three counties, a total of five rebellions this month."

He picked up another imperial report and continued, "Yunkou County, four counties, a total of three cases of rebellion. Also, Huai Yin, Jia Shang, Long Shan, and the other counties, let me roughly calculate. Just the eighteen counties of Ning Country alone, there have been no less than thirty rebellions this month! "

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Cai Gui, as if he was looking at how you were going to explain yourself.

Cai Gui laughed indifferently, and said: "Your majesty, worry too much, these reports, I can't even see them, many of them are exaggerations, the newly appointed adults are mostly new officials, they have not seen much of the world, even if there are only three or four people within the jurisdiction who are trying to cause trouble, they would be scared witless, in addition, we cannot exclude the fact that some masters are exaggerating, so that in the future we can obtain credit from the king and the imperial court, and the king should have his own judgement regarding these reports."

Tang Yin squinted his eyes in amusement. Indeed, according to the reports from the shadows, some of the County Head s did write about the rebellion too seriously, to the point that it had to be saved by the imperial government.

He said faintly, "This matter can be considered as a collective assessment of the newly appointed officials. Cai Gui, get the Hall of Patriarchs to keep an eye on them for me as well. Who are the officials that are competent and who are not, count them all and report them to me. "

"Yes!" "Great King!" Cai Gui said in a serious tone: "Actually, this humble subject has already asked my subordinates to take care of this matter, after all the newly appointed County Head s and counties' capitals are all chosen by the Political Affairs Hall, if there really is someone amongst them with insufficient power and looking to embarrass himself, the Political Affairs Hall will naturally fall, and they will look for another person with talent!"

"Hm!" "Well done, you actually thought of going in front of me." Tang Yin looked at Cai Gui with a smile, and was secretly praising him in his heart. Using someone like Cai Gui was really easy, he had truly done the right thing to let him take control of the Political Hall.

He said, "You can't underestimate the local rebellion either. Your Cai Family is quite a deep foundation in the Ning Country, so you should put in more effort to deal with this matter."

Hearing that, Cai Gui immediately bowed and saluted: "The Cai Family has arrived today, all thanks to the King's grace, the Cai Family will not disappoint the King!"

Tang Yin nodded and said: "Alright, since there is nothing else, let us return!"

"Yes, my lord!" This humble subject will take his leave. " Cai Gui bowed deeply this time, took two steps back, and turned to leave.

After Cai Gui left, he sat in the study room for a good while, before returning to his room. At this time, Yin Rou was sitting in front of the window in a daze, doing nothing.

Seeing that, a smile appeared on Tang Yin's face. He walked forward and patted Yin Rou's shoulder and asked: "What is Rou Er thinking?"

Yin Rou was startled by the sudden appearance of Tang Yin, she almost let out a scream and rolled her eyes at him, muttering unhappily: "You're so annoying! This is going to scare people to death! "

"I have been busy with government affairs for the past few days, is it boring for Rou Er to stay in the palace?" Tang Yin held her small hand and sat down beside her.

Yin Rou sighed helplessly, and said with his head lowered, "You are busy with urgent matters, I can't disturb you ?"

Hearing her pitiful voice, Tang Yin's heart was suddenly filled with pity. He rolled his eyes and said: "How about, we go out of the palace and play for a few days?"

Yin Rou's eyes immediately lit up, and asked in surprise and joy: "Can I? "Where are you going?"

Tang Yin laughed, and said: "Go to the south. Right now, the counties are not peaceful either, and just by listening to others, I am not sure of the exact situation I am in. I would like to personally take a look at the situation to see what is going on. "

"Oh, so you're bringing me on a trip under the guise of doing some official work!" Yin Rou rubbed her chin, tilted her head and sized Tang Yin up.

Tang Yin was so amused by her cute look that he started laughing. He pulled her into his arms and laughed: "What? Rou Er didn't want to travel with her husband? "Then my husband can only find someone else ?"

Before he finished speaking, as if afraid that he would go back on his words, Yin Rou anxiously shouted, "Who said I'm not going?! "Of course I want to go. I'll go wherever you go. I'll be waiting for you!"

Tang Yin liked Yin Rou's simplicity and bluntness, and also liked her not putting on an act. This made him feel very relaxed, in front of her, he did not need to spend so much effort to guess and plan.

He decided to leave the palace and head south. He did not announce the decision to the public, and only asked the senior officials of the imperial court, including Shangguan Yuanji, Cai Gui, Cai Gui, and Gu Yuan, to take care of the affairs of the imperial court for him.

There were not many people following them. Other than Ah San, there were also Xiao Min, Ao Qing and Yin Lan. Bringing Yin Lan along would make it easier for Tang Yin to contact the Umbra when she was travelling. Furthermore, she was a woman, so it would be more convenient for her to travel together.

and Yin Rou would take one carriage, Xiao Min, Ao Qing, Ao Qing and the three girls would take the other, while Ah San and Ah Si would act as the coachman of the other two carriages.

The Zhenjiang was the capital of the Feng Country, so of course there wouldn't be any revolts around the Zhenjiang. Looking around, it was a completely peaceful and auspicious scene, but as one walked further south, the scenes they saw were completely different.

The Feng Country's governance was not good, a large amount of farmland was abandoned. It was not that the population was declining, but the taxes set up by the government were too heavy. The citizens not only had to pay the taxes of the imperial government, but also the taxes of the county, county, and even the combination of multiple taxes. As a result, many of the Mo people would rather give up the land left behind by their ancestors and be displaced from their homes than go home to farm.

It could be said that not only did the economy of the Mo Country that was ruled by the Feng Country not develop, it had instead been damaged to a large degree.0

Right now, when he was about to replace the local officials, it was not because it was too early, but because it was too late. He should have long since changed the officials that he had temporarily set up when the war with Feng Mo had just subsided.

On this day, Tang Yin and the rest entered the borders of the Willow Forest County. This place was the southern border of the Feng Country.

Because the Willow Forest County was located in the southern border, a place far away from the emperor. This place was also the place with the most downturns that Tang Yin had seen on his way here.

That afternoon, they arrived at An City, a small city in Willow County. The streets were cold and deserted. Not to mention seeing people, even the shops on both sides of the streets were closed. The entire town was terrifyingly quiet, as though no one was going to die here.

A gust of cold wind blew past, causing Yin Rou, who had just gotten off the car with Tang Yin, to shiver uncontrollably as his small hands subconsciously grabbed onto his clothes.

She said in a trembling voice, "Yin, this place... Why can't you see anyone? "

That's right! Tang Yin also felt that it was strange. Even though it was a small city, it wasn't impossible for it to be invisible to passersby and merchants!

Just then, Xiao Min, Ao Qing and the rest of the people all got off the carriage, came to Tang Yin's side, looked around, and said softly: "Could it be that the Mayor in this city is too brutal, and scared the people out of the city?"

Throughout the journey, they had encountered many similar incidents, but they had never met anyone as serious as An Cheng.

After hearing that, Tang Yin's face became gloomy and cold, and said fiercely: "If it's really like that, then I will skin the An Cheng Mayor alive!"

Yin Rou was shocked by his words and subconsciously held onto Tang Yin's hand. The latter also realized that she had lost her composure. She put away the coldness and viciousness on her face and patted the back of her hand with a smile, indicating that she should not be afraid.

As he was walking, Tang Yin finally saw a teahouse on the roadside that was open for business. He took a deep breath and said to Yin Rou, "There's a teahouse over there. Let's go take a seat.

"Alright!" Yin Rou complied, and quickly followed Tang Yin over.

Arriving at the entrance of the teahouse, he took a look inside. There was not a single customer in the large teahouse. There was only a young man dressed as a waiter leaning against the counter, dozing off.

Tang Yin walked up to the waiter and stood by his side, then cleared his throat. Unexpectedly, the waiter didn't have any reaction, he just lied there motionlessly. Tang Yin impatiently knocked on the counter, and said in a deep voice: "Wake up!"

The waiter who was sleeping soundly suddenly shook, he sat up straight and looked at Tang Yin's face for a long time before realizing that a guest had arrived. He stood up with an obsequious smile, and said: "I'm really sorry, I fell asleep just now.

At the teahouse, he had seen quite a few people, but it was the first time he had seen someone as beautiful as the woman in front of him, and he could not help but look at her in a daze.

Seeing that, Tang Yin raised his eyebrows, but before he could say anything, Ah San walked in from outside, and like two iron towers, he stood in front of the waiter, staring coldly at him.

The waiter finally regained his senses and trembled in fear due to Ah San's gloomy expression. He did not dare to look at Yin Rou again, and smiled apologetically: "Fellow Sir, please come in, quickly come in!"

Ah San stood in his original position without moving, four pairs of eyes were like four sharp swords, staring straight at the waiter, but Tang Yin just smiled indifferently and asked while walking: "Waiter, where are the people from inside the city? Why is it that along the way, you can't even see a single passerby? "

"Sir still doesn't know?"

"Know what?"

"Everyone went to Eastern City to watch the show."

"Oh? What's so interesting about it? " Tang Yin helped Yin Rou to sit down, and asked curiously.

"Today is the day that the newly appointed county chief beheaded the Mayor. I'll start my execution at noon, I think we'll be making a move soon." The waiter shrugged and said disapprovingly.
