Chapter 511

Walk through the long corridor, come to the front of the steps of the main hall, here the smoke is billowing out, people stare at it, well, under the steps there are thirty large oil pots, each oil pot has four feet long, wide and deep, is placed on the shelf, there is a pile of firewood below, at this time the fire is strong, the oil in the pot is boiling, bubbling and bubbling.

When Liang Xing and the others saw it, their hearts trembled, what did Tang Yin mean by putting so many oil pots here? What did he want to do? People were all over and down in their hearts, forced their composure, and walked up the steps slowly.

Before they could come up, a person walked out of the door of the main hall, this person was wearing a black and red striped county head official uniform, with a black brocade belt around his waist and a black crown on his head, he was only in his twenties, his face was as white as jade, his facial features were profound, his appearance was handsome, and he was born with a smile. He stood at the top of the steps with a smile, looked down at Liang Xing and the others who came up, and arched his hand and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's early!"

The ministers raised their eyes and looked up, and the one they saw was not someone else, it was Tang Yin.

No matter how disgusted and fearful Tang Yin is in his heart, the etiquette on the surface still has to be passable. The ministers returned the salute one after another, and said with a forced smile: "Lord Tang is early!"

Liang Xingwei was not as polite as the others, he strode up the steps, came to Tang Yin's approach, and said with a cold face: "Lord Tang, what is your intention in suddenly mobilizing so many troops into the palace and putting on such a big formation?"

Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders with a smile and said, "Today is a big day for my Feng Country to elect a monarch, and the selection of soldiers into the palace is also to make the coronation ceremony more grand!"

When he said this, Liang Xing couldn't refute anything, he snorted coldly, and said in another sense: "I hope so! ”

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, and then laughed on his back, he first Liang Xing, and then quietly the other civil and military ministers, said-for-tat: "Although Liang Xiang is relieved at this point, the official has tightly sealed the palace, even if the palace is turned upside down, the palace will not know about it, and the so-called family ugliness is not publicized!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Liang Xing and the ministers on the left and right changed, and their heartbeats jumped out of their throats. Liang Xing swallowed and foamed, pretended to be calm, turned his head to look at the square below, and after a moment of conversation, he asked again: "What is the purpose of those oil pots that Lord Tang placed below?"

Tang Yin said with a smile: "There are many vicious ministers and thieves in my court, and those oil pots below are prepared for them." As he spoke, he turned around and walked into the hall with his hands behind his back, and continued: "If I find out who is the minister, hehe, you have all seen it, I will throw him into the oil pot!"

He said it lightly, but the ministers behind him listened in a cold sweat, and some timid ministers had weak legs and almost collapsed on the spot. Throwing people into the oil pot? This is unseen and unheard of, and Tang Yin dares to do such a thing? The ministers don't know whether what Tang Yin said is true or not, but they don't know the bottom of their hearts.

Having walked into the center of the main hall, seeing that the ministers were still standing outside the hall, Tang Yin squinted his eyes, grinned, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, what are you doing standing outside if you don't come to the court to discuss recently?"

Everyone woke up like a dream, looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Liang Xing. Liang Xing is their leader and their backbone, and at the critical moment, it depends on Liang Xing's decision. Liang Xing knew that the ministers were waiting for his move, he looked up at Tang Yin, who had a kind and friendly face, gritted his teeth secretly, shook his body, and walked into the hall.

Liang Xing entered the palace, and the ministers no longer hesitated, and they also approached.

Now Wu Yu is sick at home, Ziyang Haochun is imprisoned in the prison, and only Liang Xing is qualified to preside over the overall situation in the court meeting. As usual, Liang Xing first took out the notes sent to Yancheng from various places and discussed them with the ministers. Soon, the discussion came to an end, Liang Xing picked up the last note, and said: "Zhonglin County in Lingdong County has had heavy rains for three consecutive days, and more than 100,000 people have been affected, and Lord Wu, the head of the county, has asked the imperial court for 200,000 taels for disaster relief, my lords, what are your opinions?"

"The lower officials also heard that Zhonglin County was hit by a flood, and more than 100,000 people were displaced, so Lord Wu's request for money should be approved. ”

"But at present, my gale's treasury is empty, and 200,000 taels of silver is not a small amount!" Liu Huan, the imperial historian in charge of finance, frowned and shook his head, and at the same time, his eyes drifted to Tang Yin, who was standing at the bottom of the hundred officials, intentionally or unintentionally. There are many reasons for the emptiness of the treasury of the Wind Country, on the one hand, the conquest of the years is one thing, Zhong Tian's rebellion has caused the loss of the silver deposits in the treasury, after Zhong Tian was destroyed, the silver deposits in the treasury have just accumulated some, and the Tianyuan Army has begun to expand the army on a large scale, of course Tang Yin will not come out of the expansion of the army by himself, and he can't afford it, all of it comes from the treasury, so there is no money in the treasury of the Wind Country at present.

Liang Xing frowned and said: "The silver taels for disaster relief are related to the lives of more than 100,000 people, can't even the treasury take out a mere 200,000 taels of silver?"

"Yes, yes, but ......" has been booked by Tang Yin. Liu Huan paused, not daring to finish his words.

At this time, Tang Yin, who seemed to be fine, finally raised his head, and said calmly: "The silver of the treasury naturally has to be used in key places, as for the request for money from Lingdong County, you can let its county head find a way to solve it himself, as far as I know, Lingdong County is my windy rich county, there are many big businessmen in the county, and the money for disaster relief can be collected from them!"

Tang Yin not only controls the military power, but also the national treasury, which is really unreasonable! Liang Xing's teeth itched, but he didn't want to tear his face with Tang Yin because of such a trivial matter. He suppressed his anger and said indifferently: "What Lord Tang said is polite, so ...... Let's do what Lord Tang wants!"

"Yes!" Liang Xing had already spoken, and all the ministers had no objections, and they all responded.

After the normal court discussions are over, the next thing is the election of the new monarch of the Wind Country, which really involves the vital interests of everyone present, and people's nerves are also tensed.

"Lord Tang!" Zhang Xin, the history of Zhisu, arched his hand to Tang Yin and said, "According to the agreement, today should be the day to elect my Gale Monarch, I don't know what Lord Tang wants?"

Finally got to the point. Tang Yin smiled slightly, and said: "Since it was the agreement between me and Liang Xiang at the beginning, of course I have no opinion, choose it!" After a pause, he restrained his smile, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly to the center of the main hall, looked around at the ministers, and said quietly: "As the head of the county, with the power of a county, I can resist the traitor Zhong Tian and the 400,000 army of Ning Guo alone, and it can be regarded as a great contribution and immortal honor for Gale, I think I will be the new monarch of Gale, and no one should oppose it, right?"

I didn't expect Tang Yin to be so straightforward, and when he came up, he expressed his intention to be the Wind King. This was quite unexpected by the ministers, and it also made everyone a little unable to react.

Liang Xing was furious, and he was about to speak, but he closed his mouth smartly, and turned his eyes to "Taicang" Peng Cheng.

Of course, Peng Cheng understood what Liang Xing meant, and his heart suddenly moved. He was captured by Wu Yu at the beginning, but thanks to Liang Xing who rescued him, he has been thinking about how to repay Liang Xing, and now the opportunity has finally come. He deliberately cleared his throat and said, "Lord Tang is a bit serious, right?!"

Hearing this, Tang Yin turned his head to look at Peng Cheng and asked with a smile, "What did Master Peng say about this?"

Peng Cheng said: "Lord Tang has indeed made great contributions in eliminating the national thieves and killing the Ning army, but these merits are not all your Tang Lord's alone, right? If Liang Xiang had not ceded the Liang family's corps to Tang Lord, the army under the command of Tang would not have expanded so rapidly, right? If Liang Xiang had not sat in the capital and ensured that Tang Lords had no worries, I think the battle between Tang Lords and Zhong Tian and the Ning Army would not have been so smooth, right? Lord Tang's merits are all superficial, but Liang Xiang's merits are invisible but real, as far as the merits made for the gale, Liang Xiang is not below you, Lord Tang!"

Peng Cheng said that the head was the Tao, shaking his head, belittling Tang Yin, and at the same time, he also praised Liang Xing a little flutteringly.

Tang Yin looked at Peng Cheng with a strange look in his eyes, and smiled without saying a word.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, thinking that he was speechless, Peng Cheng was even more carried away, he strode to Tang Yin's approach, raised his head, and said: "What? Lord Tang has nothing to say this time? Then let me express my attitude first, I support Liang Xiang as the new monarch of my gale, and only Liang Xiang as the king of the wind can make me gale country rich and strong, the country and the people are safe, and the generations will live forever in the ......world."

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin suddenly waved his arm with a smile, and a crisp sound was heard in the ear chakra, and Tang Yin's palm slapped firmly on Peng Cheng's face.

This slap was so strong that Peng Cheng spun around in place, and then couldn't stand, and sat on the ground with his ass, he only felt that half of his head was numb and didn't feel anything, Venus was shining in front of him, and everything was spinning.

No one expected that Tang Yin would dare to make a move against the minister in public above the court, and a sound of inhalation sounded in the hall.

Without waiting for others to ask, Tang Yin had already stretched out his hand and pointed at Peng Cheng's nose, sneered and said in a cruel voice: "I just said that there are ministers and thieves in the court, I think you Lord Peng is one of them, you are indiscriminate, full of nonsense for your own selfish interests, how can such a villain be worthy of being my minister of the wind?

As soon as Tang Yin's words fell, four black-armored guards with swords approached outside the hall gate, and after the four of them approached, they knelt on one knee and intervened: "What do you command?"

"Drag this thief out and put it in the oil pot to show the wind!" Tang Yin looked down at Peng Cheng who was sitting on the ground, and said in a cold voice with an expressionless face.
