Early the next morning, the manager of Lingxiao Pavilion knocked on Yan Yin's room.
Ye Qingchen was about to get up. Yan Yin, who had been sitting at the table thinking about things after returning to the room after talking to the Imperial Master, shook his head and said, "You guys continue to sleep. I'll go out and take a look."
Opening the door, I saw the shopkeeper of Lingxiao Pavilion and a waiter outside the door. He asked, "Good morning, shopkeeper."
Nodding, the shopkeeper of Lingxiao Pavilion hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Hello, Lord Marquis."
Smiling slightly, Yan Yin said, "What's the matter?"
"That's it. There are two men in black looking for you downstairs." The shopkeeper of Lingxiao Pavilion said, "They claim to be Princess Linglong."
Arriving at the hall downstairs, Yan Yin saw the two men in black.
"My subordinates pay their respects to Marquis Dingbei."
Seeing Yan Yin coming down, they bowed and said in unison.
It was still early at this time and there was no one in the hall.
Waving his hand, Yan Yin said, "You are quite well informed. You found me so quickly. Tell me what you have to do with me."
One of them said, "That's it. We captured Lu Renjia, a rebellious member who went to the Fengyun Mountains with Lord Dingbeihou. After we interrogated him, he said that you, Lord Dingbei, let him go. So we I want to confirm with Marquis Dingbei."
"In addition, the monarch has learned that the Marquis has arrived in the imperial capital. He ordered me and I to ask the Marquis to go to the palace to have a talk." Another man in black said, "I don't know if the Marquis is coming with us or..."
"Let's go together." He glanced at Xia Hanqing who was walking downstairs. Yan Yin said, "Also, send Lu Renjia to Lingxiao Pavilion to wait for my return."
Imperial Palace.
"It has been seven or eight months since we said goodbye that day. I miss you dearly." Looking at Yan Yin, the emperor Fengyun successfully smiled and said, "I heard that you live in a family called Lingxiao Pavilion in the imperial capital. Inn. As the Marquis of Dingbei, how can I be so wronged? I have ordered people to renovate the Su family's mansion. It will then be transformed into the Marquis of Dingbei's mansion. If Aiqing returns to the imperial capital next time, she can stay at Dingbei Marquis. And Aiqing In my absence, I will ask a housekeeper from the palace to take care of Dingbeihou Mansion for Ai Qing."
He cupped his hands. Yan Yin opened his mouth and said, "Yan Yin has thanked the monarch."
Inviting Yan Yin to sit down, Fengyun successfully looked at Yang Fan, Lingtian, Wu Hao and Linglong who were standing aside and said to Yan Yin, "I know all of these dear ladies. I won't introduce them further."
Nodding to the four of them, Yan Yin looked at Fengyun and waited for his next words.
Looking at Wu Hao, Fengyun successfully said, "Wu Hao, you are my captain of the guard. You tell me."
Wu Hao cupped his hands. Wu Hao looked at Yan Yin and said, "That's it. The general ordered to uproot the Yanyun Mountains. And the Yanyun Mountains are the golden treasure house of the empire. There are countless treasures of heaven, material and earth. The generals uprooted the Yanyun Mountains. Not only did they make Many people who depended on the Yanyun Mountains for their lives lost their source of income. This also caused many people to be attacked by strange beasts that emerged from the Yanyun Mountains."
"So." Yan Yin asked.
"So we hope that Marquis Dingbei can sit in the imperial capital and mobilize the northern troops into the empire to help with defense." Linglong said, "In addition, we also want to recruit an army in the empire in the name of Marquis Dingbei to train and help. Assist in defense.”
Regarding the previous words, Yan Yin didn't think that this was what he was going to do.
But regarding the last sentence, Yan Yin was silent.
He is the Marquis of Dingbei and the Lord of Northern Xinjiang. He is the son of the former Zhenbei General and now the Zhenbei King Yan Yi. His various identities give him great power in the imperial capital.
When the lieutenant general gave up and left, Feng Yunxiao took over the southern border on his own, and Nangong Jian was forced to retreat from the southern border by Feng Yunxiao. Only Yan Yin, the Marquis of Dingbei with a large army, became the one who could resist Feng Yunxiao in the hearts of the world. A big shot.
Therefore, as long as the army is recruited in the name of Yan Yin, the Marquis of Dingbei, a large army will be recruited immediately.
Originally, this was not a big deal to Yan Yin.
But there is a key point in this. That is who will lead these conscripted troops.
Fengyun successfully gave an answer to this question.
"The commander of the army will naturally be you, Marquis Dingbei. However, it is hard to work for Marquis Dingbei. Therefore, I decided to let Wu Hao temporarily command the army for training. This can be regarded as reducing some of the burden on Marquis Dingbei." Looking at Yan Yin, Fengyun successfully smiled and said, "I don't know what Dingbei Hou wants."
Although Feng Yun was smiling successfully, Yan Yin found a strange look flashing in his eyes.
Since becoming the monarch of the empire, Fengyun Chenggong has become more and more majestic. His speech and behavior show the magnanimity of a king.
After hearing Fengyun Chenggong's words, Yan Yin fell silent.
In the current empire, the only one who holds a large army besides Feng Yunxiao is himself. If this army is in his hands, then he can command it. But now Feng Yun successfully wants to hand over the army to Commander Wu Hao. Then It is equivalent to being under the direct control of Fengyun Chenggong.
In this way, three military forces were formed: Southern Xinjiang, Northern Xinjiang and Imperial Capital.
If only Yan Yin had a large army, then he could devote himself to dealing with Feng Yunxiao.
But if the Imperial Capital has an army, Yan Yinyu has to wonder whether one day he and Feng Yunxiao will fight to the death, whether the Imperial Capital will take the opportunity to destroy his army.
No monarch wants to have forces beyond his control in his empire.
Don't look at the fact that Fengyun's success depends on Yan Yin at the moment. But there is no guarantee that one day Fengyun will succeed for some kind of benefit. Just like when the emperor of the empire dealt with his father, he dealt with him.
This is not impossible.
Although Yan Yin was confident that he was not afraid, he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble for himself.
"Why, Marquis Dingbei seems to be a little hesitant." Fengyun Chenggong raised his eyebrows and said with an arrogant expression, "If it weren't for me, as the leader of a country, to be in charge of an army, then with my strength as King Wu, I would be qualified to command a large army. Fight for the Empire."
Hearing this, Yan Yin couldn't help but look up at Fengyun Chenggong.
I didn't observe it carefully before. Now I heard Fengyun Chenggong say this. Fengyun Chenggong is really a martial king.
No wonder Fengyun was so successful. It turned out that he became King Wu.
"Yan Yin will not object to the monarch's conscription." Looking at the success of the situation, Yan Yin said, "It's just that Yan's name will only be used to recruit the Yan family army, and the Yan family army will only recruit Xi from Northern Xinjiang. I am a warrior who practices Yan's Changquan. As for the territory of the empire, I think that even without me, Yan Yin, the monarch can quickly recruit a powerful army. As for the commander of the army, since Yan Yin is the Marquis of Dingbei, he should Just take care of the Northern Xinjiang army. This leadership position might as well be given to the guard chief Wu Hao."
Feng Yun frowned. Fengyun successfully looked at Yan Yin quietly for a long time. Seeing that his expression did not change at all. Then he smiled and said, "Since Dingbei Hou said so, let's do it."
Yang Fan seemed to be aware of the strange atmosphere in the scene. Yang Fan said, "According to the previous agreement, our Yang family and Ling family have begun to transport food and grass to the army on the front line. Please rest assured Dingbei Hou about this."
"No need," Yan Yin said, "My people are responsible for the food and fodder for my army. As for the food and fodder for the two families, send it directly to Northern Xinjiang and allocate it to the people who are constructing the Juhe River."
If it were before, Yan Yin would not be like this. But now Fengyun Chenggong obviously has the idea of suppressing Yan Yin. He cannot let the most important food of his army be handed over to outsiders.
If there is a problem with the diet, the entire army will be affected.
Therefore, Yan Yin is not worried.
"Why." Ling Tian said, "Doesn't the army in front need food and grass?"
Looking around at everyone, Yan Yin said, "When we were pacifying the alien beasts in northern Xinjiang, Yan's army also had no food and grass. But as long as there were alien beasts, there would be food. Those alien beasts that came out of the Yanyun Mountains escaped But the fate of being killed. Rather than letting it rot and stink, it is better to use it as fodder for my army."
"How is this possible?" Linglong frowned.
Glancing at Linglong lightly, Yan Yin said, "There is nothing wrong with it. When Yan commanded the army across Western Xinjiang and entered the Shiwan Mountains, it was like this. An army that came all the way. Only in adversity can... Produce the most powerful combat effectiveness."
Having said that, Yan Yin looked at Fengyun Chenggong and said, "My lord, I wonder if you know the reason why Fengyun Xiao wanted to uproot the Yanyun Mountains."
"What's the reason?" After hearing this, Feng Yun successfully fell silent.
After a long time, Fengyun succeeded and said, "My royal grandmother, who is also the general's mother. When she was young, she and her ancestors were touring the empire when they encountered a strange beast that sprang out from the Yanyun Mountains. During the attack, in order to save the late monarch and the general, the imperial grandmother died tragically at the hands of the strange beast. At that time, Feng Yunxiao’s current wife also went with the army. The blood of the strange beast was splashed on her face, making her beautiful appearance disgraceful. Furthermore, because of this, the general had a grudge against the Yanyun Mountains, and he ordered the Yanyun Mountains to be razed. Perhaps it was because of this."
"So that's it." Yan Yin frowned.
"Having said that, for the sake of his own selfishness, he disregarded the lives and deaths of millions of people. It also caused the entire empire to be turbulent." Linglong said, "Such behavior is really inappropriate."
"Whether it should be or not is not up to us. Now that he has started taking action, all we can do is deal with the consequences of what he did." Looking at Fengyun's success, Yan Yin stood up and said, "Subordinates There are still important things to do. I need to return to Northern Xinjiang first. If you, the monarch, have anything to do, you can discuss it with the King of Zhennan."
After that, Yan Yin stood up and prepared to leave.
"Marquis of Dingbei. The monarch who resigned should bow before him." Looking at Yan Yin, Wu Hao said solemnly, "This is the rule of the empire."
After taking a look at Fengyun Chenggong who was sitting there with an unchanging expression, Yan Yin turned and left without looking at Wu Hao.
"Bold."
Wu Hao drew his sword and struck. He slashed at Yan Yin with one strike.
During this period, Fengyun Chenggong remained silent.
"Uh-huh."
A ray of sword light knocked Wu Hao's long sword away. A figure appeared next to Yan Yin.
The person coming is Xia Hanqing.
"Uncle Hanqing, forget it." Yan Yin said to Hanqing, the knight next to him, "This is the palace."
Xia Hanqing glanced at Fengyun Chenggong and Wu Hao with a calm expression, and then put away the long sword.
Turning back and looking at Fengyun Chenggong, Yan Yin said, "I don't want Yan from Dingbei Hou Mansion. If nothing else happens, this will be Yan's last time in the imperial capital."
After that, Yan Yin and Xia Hanqing left without looking back.
"Your Majesty, that hero Han Qing is a spiritual saint." Seeing Feng Yun's success, Wu Hao said in a deep voice, "He made a breakthrough."
Nodding, Feng Yun successfully frowned and said, "I see."
Sighing softly, Linglong said, "I said, don't pressure Yan Yin. He can't be controlled by us. Even if, brother, you become the King of Martial, you have to know that your set of Emperor Fist is Yan Yin's." He passed it on to you. Without his Emperor Fist, how could you become the King of Martial Arts, my dear brother?"
"We are both practicing boxing. I just want to see how his boxing skills are." Feng Yun successfully said, "It's a pity that I can't see him anymore."
"If you see it, you will die." At this time, the voice of the national master rang in the room, "A martial saint wants to kill you. Even I can't save you."
Everyone took a cold breath. Wu Hao said to Fengyun Chenggong with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, Yan Yin has become a Martial Saint."
After a long silence, Feng Yun successfully waved his hand and said, "You all can go down. I'm tired."
