Tomin in The Alien World

Cheng Jin did not answer immediately. Instead, he took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it over to Tang Yin. The latter took it and unfolded it. On the paper, three words were written crookedly: Rites Camp. He questioned, "This is ?"    

    

"The assassin's forehead has been shattered and is unable to speak. This was personally written by him." Cheng Jin said carefully. When it came to the ritual camp, the matter was extremely important. Not only were the People of Chuan Country Ministers unable to get out of it, even the Madam Zhaoyang herself would be dragged into it.    

    

If this matter was further investigated, it would affect who knows how many people. Cheng Jin knew about this, Lei Zhen, Ai Wei knew about it, and Tang Yin himself also knew it.    

    

Tang Yin slowly squinted his eyes and did not speak for a long time. He didn't know what to ask next. Who was the mastermind behind this? Other than Xiao Xiang, who else could move the etiquette camp?    

    

If Cheng Jin's answer was really Xiao Xiang, then how was he going to deal with Xiao Xiang? Kill her? Or depose her wife's title? These were simply impossible, and the consequences were too serious.    

    

He remained silent for half the time it took to brew a cup of tea, and then he opened his mouth and said, "Assassin ?" Anything else? "    

    

"Originally, your subordinate wanted to ask for more details, but in the end ?"    

    

Cheng Jin stopped there and shook his head, looking ashamed. After a while, he said in a low voice, "As a result, the assassin could not stand the torture and died. Your subordinate has done something unfavorable, so your Majesty, please punish me! "    

    

Hearing this, Tang Yin couldn't help but secretly heave a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the assassin would tell him everything.    

    

Not to mention whether it would cause a riot in the whole of Sichuan, Xiao Xiang was now his wife. If he really did that, he would not be able to bear it.    

    

Now that the Assassin was dead, all he had to do was tell them that they were from the Priest Camp, which would be easy. It could be said that he was an exception, or that he had deliberately set them up. Thinking about it, he raised his head and looked at Cheng Jin.    

    

Cheng Jin was like a child who had done something wrong. His head was lowered, and he did not even dare to breathe. Tang Yin was very smart, after thinking about it for a while, he immediately realised that there was something strange about it.    

    

Cheng Jin, Lei Zhen, Ai Wei and the others were all experts in torture, especially Cheng Jin and Ai Wei. The two of them were originally in this line of work, how could they torture such an important person to death?    

    

Making people wish they were dead was the skill they were the most adept at. Thinking about it, Tang Yin understood, this must be Cheng Jin doing it on purpose to silence him.    

    

If all of them were to explode with light, it was very likely that it would escalate to a point where it would be impossible to deal with them. It would be difficult for to get down from the tiger himself, so the assassin he captured would definitely not die from the severe punishment, but rather be directly executed by Cheng Jin.    

    

Thinking about it, Tang Yin secretly nodded his head, Cheng Jin was truly worthy of being his trusted aide. He knew what he wanted and did not want, instead of focusing on handling cases and doing things recklessly.    

    

Tang Yin and Cheng Jin had a tacit understanding to the point that they did not need any words to reach a tacit understanding. However, on the surface, Tang Yin pretended to be angry and spoke with dissatisfaction in his voice, "Why be so careless?    

    

"Yes!" Because this subordinate is too impatient, this subordinate is willing to accept the punishment. " Cheng Jin bowed and said.    

    

"Forget it, something like that. It's not worth dying for." Tang Yin changed the subject and asked slowly, "The assassin said that he was a member of the Priest Camp, this ? Could it be that they were deliberately framing us, deliberately creating trouble for our People of Chuan Country, with the intention of causing a conflict between us Wind Man and our People of Chuan Country? "    

    

Cheng Jin seriously thought about it, then nodded and replied: "This subordinate thinks that it is extremely possible."    

    

"Then continue to investigate. You must find out who the mastermind behind the assassin is and give Yuanji an explanation!"    

    

"This subordinate understands." Of course, Cheng Jin understood Tang Yin's true intention. The King wanted him to find the scapegoat, and if the culprit couldn't be found, and also couldn't let go of the matter, he could only capture some unimportant people to take the blame.    

    

Tang Yin looked deeply at Cheng Jin, then waved his hand and said: "All of you can leave. Right, we will leave this matter to Dark Arrow to handle it alone, both camp and Lieutenant's Mansion do not need to interfere."    

    

"Yes!" "Great King!" Lei Zhen and Ai Wei were both smart people, the assassination case this time was just like a big quagmire, he could escape from this matter as soon as possible, or else, if he was covered in filth, he might even sink into it.    

    

Lei Zhen and Ai Wei both left, but Cheng Jin stayed behind and did not leave immediately. When the two of them left the room, Cheng Jin took two steps forward, came to Tang Yin's side and said in a low voice: "Great King, the restaurant where Right Prime Minister was assassinated was newly opened, the owner had People of Chuan Country, and also, the assassin seemed to have already known that Right Prime Minister would be going there, so he had made some meticulous preparations outside the restaurant."    

    

Tang Yin said faintly, "According to what I know, it's Zhang Xin who invited Yuanji to that restaurant for a meal."    

    

"That's right!" Cheng Jin said: "This subordinate has to report, ever since Madam became pregnant, Master Zhang and Madam have been very close."    

    

Tang Yin did not need to clarify with his words, Tang Yin already understood the meaning behind his words. To assassinate Shangguan Yuanji, this was something that would be difficult to do with just his People of Chuan Country, it was something that could only be accomplished with the help of the people of the sect, and was the most suitable candidate.    

    

Of course, Tang Yin could understand why Zhang Xin would choose to cling onto him. The main reason was still because of the child in Xiao Xiang's stomach.    

    

He nodded his head and said: "I got it, Cheng Jin, you did well this time, go ahead!"    

    

"Yes!" This subordinate will take his leave! " Cheng Jin bowed deeply once again, then turned and walked out.    

    

After Cheng Jin left, Tang Yin couldn't help but rub his forehead that was in so much pain. It was already hard enough for him to deal with all sorts of complicated government affairs everyday, and now he still had to coordinate all the complicated relationships between everyone.    

    

He sat in a daze for a long time, took a deep breath and stood up, then said to Ah San who was outside: "Prepare the carriage, I want to go to the Zhang Residence!"    

    

Tang Yin headed towards Zhang Xin's residence. After he was assassinated in the restaurant, Zhang Xin was also injured, it was just that his injuries were light. These few days, he did not participate in Morning Meeting.    

    

Hearing that the King had personally come to visit him, Zhang Xin couldn't tell if he was afraid or pleasantly surprised. Speaking of which, this was also the first time Tang Yin visited his residence.    

    

With the support of a servant, Zhang Xin exited the manor. When he arrived outside, he immediately knelt down upon seeing Tang Yin, and said with a trembling voice: "This humble subject greets the King!"    

    

Tang Yin reached out to help Zhang Xin up, and said: "Zhang Xin, you're injured, there's no need to be so courteous."    

    

"Your Majesty, this way please!" Hearing that Tang Yin's tone was no different from usual, Zhang Xin's tense heart finally calmed down.    

    

Tang Yin walked in front and Zhang Xin followed behind, walking into the Zhang Residence. After entering, he did not head towards the great hall. Instead, he turned around and smiled to Zhang Xin: "This is the first time coming to your house, why don't you bring me around for a bit!"    

    

Zhang Xin anxiously replied, then began to stroll around the Palace. When Tang Yin walked to the back garden of the Zhang Residence, he stopped and looked at Zhang Xin, then said: "You are injured right now, so you should not walk around too much. Let's go to the pavilion."    

    

"Yes!" "Great King!" Zhang Xin followed Tang Yin into the pavilion. Seeing that Tang Yin waved goodbye to Ah San and the others, Zhang Xin immediately ordered the servants to leave the pavilion.    

    

Very soon, someone brought up some tea. Tang Yin picked up his teacup, drank his tea slowly and said: "Zhang Xin, now there are many ministers in the court urging me to seize the throne, to become the Son of Heaven, what do you think of this matter?"    

    

Zhang Xin's thoughts raced, he did not understand what the King meant by that. He pondered for a moment and said carefully, "This humble subject has always followed the king's lead. No matter what decision the king makes, this humble subject will always support the king ?"    

    

Tang Yin was amused, he waved his hand, and said: "Don't speak of this in private, I just want to hear the true thoughts in your heart."    

    

"Oh ?" Zhang Xin paused, and then cupped his hands together and said: "This humble subject naturally hopes for the King to improve and become the true ruler of the world, just that, the Right Prime Minister has always opposed the King seizing the throne, the Right Prime Minister is the leader of the civil officials, this humble subject does not dare be rash, and should respect Right Prime Minister's decision."    

    

Tang Yin nodded his head, and spoke meaningfully: "You are right, other than that, Yuanji and you are both Wind Men, I place the most importance on you guys, but now, the situation in the palace is complicated, and we need a pillar to support us, and you guys are the pillars, so, you guys should stick together, even if there are differences, we should focus on the big situation, and try our best to be courteous, for me, the back and hands of your hands are all meat, killing each other, it is the situation that I hate."    

    

His words were from the bottom of his heart, and caused Zhang Xin's heart to palpitate in fear and panic.    

    

The King had already spoken up to this point, so it was obvious that she had already figured out the truth. With that thought, Zhang Xin could no longer sit still on the stone bench. He slid and kneeled on the ground, kowtowed, and said with a trembling voice, "Great King, this humble subject was muddle-headed, and was confused ?"    

    

Without waiting for him to finish, Tang Yin reached out and grabbed his arm, and said indifferently: "Everyone will make mistakes, I'm not afraid of you guys making mistakes, as long as you guys can sincerely repent and change it, I'm afraid that there will be people who are stubborn and do it again. When that time comes, even if I want to protect him, I won't be able to do anything."    

    

"Your Majesty ?" Zhang Xin's body that was kneeling on the ground shook violently, following that, his tears fell like rain, as he sobbed until he couldn't stop himself from crying.    

    

Tang Yin stood up, and at the same time, pulled him up with force. He laughed out loud and said: "Zhang Xin, you're already an old man, it's not proper for you to cry like this."    

    

Saying that, he took out a handkerchief and gave it to Zhang Xin, smiling as he said: "Wipe them clean, and if others see this, they will think that I am using the name of a visiting patient to interrogate them!"    

    

How could he not feel the King's kindness towards Zhang Xin? Because of this, he felt even more ashamed, and his tears flowed even more. He took Tang Yin's handkerchief, but did not dare to use it.
