Looking at the blanket handed out from the crack of the door, Tang Yin felt warm in his heart. The blanket was not even covering his body, but his whole body was already warm.

The princess of the empire is so considerate, how can people not be willing to protect her?

He took the blanket, nodded deeply, and said softly: "Thank you, Your Highness, Princess."

"General Tang, you're welcome!" Yin Rou said with a slightly red face.

She was wearing a white nightgown, and the hazy moonlight was pouring on her body. She looked like a fairy who could not dazzle the world, and like an elf in the dark night, so hazy, illusory and noble.

Tang Yin's gaze was deep and he couldn't take his eyes away from Yin Rou for a long time. At this time, he knew clearly that he was not Yan Lie, and Yin Rou was not Crystal. He was simply attracted to her.

Under his scorching gaze, Yin Rou's little face turned even redder, and she said hastily: "I'm going back!" After saying that, she immediately closed the door tightly, and then he heard the thumping of footsteps, and then

, there was another muffled sound, and she thought she threw herself on the bed.

The corners of Tang Yin's mouth raised unconsciously, and a gentle smile appeared on his face that was difficult to see. This kind of smile may not even have been seen by him.

It was hard to imagine that one day he would spend the night outside a girl's door, but he also understood that he was not forced. No matter who or where he was, no one could force him to do something he didn't want to do.

Sitting outside the door, covering himself with the blanket Yin Rou gave him, he felt an indescribable feeling of happiness in his heart.

This escort mission was the first meeting between him and Yin Rou, which also gave rise to a subtle relationship between the two, which also laid the foundation for a major change in Tang Yin's development in the future.

As he expected, the assassins did not move again that night, and the weather was calm. When the sky got slightly brighter, Tang Yin woke up, listened carefully to the sounds in the room, and breathed evenly. It was obvious that Yin Rou was still asleep.

He did not disturb her and quietly went downstairs to find Qiu Zhen.

Qiu Zhen basically didn't sleep that night and had been busy searching for the assassins. He arranged for five captains to be divided into five teams to conduct a large-scale search of the entire city, hoping to find the traces of the assassins. The result was disappointing. The assassins

It seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. I searched for it all night, but there was no clue.

After listening to Qiu Zhen's report, Tang Yin was not surprised. The other party came prepared, and the assassins were all outstanding spiritual cultivators. Finding clues was not easy.

He did not intend to delay in Wancheng, and decisively ordered the entire army to pack up and prepare to return to Yancheng.

He gave the order, and the soldiers of the Second Corps began to quickly pack up the camp and bring their belongings. When the commanders came back to report to him one after another, Tang Yin went to find Yin Rou.

It was already getting bright. Tang Yin knocked on the door lightly and waited for a long time before hearing Yin Rou's inarticulate reply. Then, a female officer opened the door and asked softly: "Your Highness, Princess, is still resting."

, General Tang, what can I do?"

Tang Yin didn't squint his eyes and said seriously: "We are going to leave immediately. Please let the princess get up and freshen up. I will wait outside."

The female officer asked with a confused look on her face: "Now?"

Tang Yin said: "The whereabouts of the assassins were not found last night, and there was no news of their escape. It seems that the assassins are still in Wancheng. Her Royal Highness will be in more danger if she stays here for a moment longer."

"Ah! I will report it to Her Royal Highness the Princess!" The assassin's deterrence was indeed strong enough. The female officer immediately retreated to the room without any further resistance.

Tang Yin waited in the courtyard of the hotel for almost half an hour before Yin Rou and his entourage came out of the main room.

After seeing the ceremony, without any unnecessary nonsense, Tang Yin let Yin Rou get into the carriage and immediately urged his soldiers to leave the city.

Wancheng is not far from Yancheng, even if you walk, it only takes more than half a day.

Afraid of an accident on the road, Tang Yin ordered his men to speed up their march.

They set off from Wancheng in the early morning and drove all the way. Just at noon, they arrived at the boundary of Yancheng.

Seeing the city wall of Yancheng from a distance, the soldiers of the Second Corps breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. Once here, they were completely safe.

Moving forward, we saw flags waving outside Yancheng, soldiers like a forest, and a neat and majestic team standing there.

Tang Yin was startled. He looked carefully and saw that the one in the team was flying the king's flag.

It seems that your Majesty came out of the city in person to greet Her Royal Highness the Princess! After thinking about it, he slowed down his horse, turned his head and called several captains behind him, and said: "Your Majesty may have come out in person to greet Her Royal Highness the Princess. Please let the brothers line up.

Square formation, form your formation!"

"Understood!" Several thousand captains took the order and left.

Tang Yin's team was lazy and scattered. At this time, it took a lot of effort to gather together and line up in an orderly manner. He could only hear people shouting and shouting, and there were constant shouts from behind and left.

Seeing that his soldiers had finally lined up their troops, Tang Yin straightened his back and accelerated his horse to move forward.

His guess was correct, Feng King Zhanhua did come out to greet him in person, and with him came many important ministers of the Feng Kingdom.

This is the first time Tang Yin has seen the Feng King. Zhanhua looks like he is nearly forty years old. He is handsome and elegant, with a Confucian temperament. He looks gentle and gentle, which makes it difficult for people to reconcile with the Feng Kingdom's fierce country.

The equal sign of style painting.

Others were either riding horses or standing on both sides. Only he was wearing a gorgeous black brocade robe and sitting on the carriage. Tang Yin could guess his identity without asking Tang Yin, not to mention that Wu Mei in the crowd was making continuous gestures to him.

Eye color.

When he got close, Tang Yin dismounted from his horse. Because he was wearing armor, he could only salute with his hands raised, and said seriously: "Tang Yin, commander of the Second Corps, comes to see you, Your Majesty!"

Zhan Hua had heard of Tang Yin's name, looked at him carefully for a while, smiled calmly, waved his hand and said, "General Tang, you have worked hard all the way."

Tang Yin said: "Your Majesty is polite, my subordinates are just doing their duty."

"Yes!" Zhan Hua nodded slightly, looked up at the carriage behind him, and asked, "How is your highness, Princess?"

It seems that the news of the assassin's assassination on the princess has reached Yancheng. Tang Yin said: "Thanks to you, your highness the princess is safe and sound."

"That's good!" Zhan Hua sighed first, and then said to Tang Yin: "You have done a good job in protecting Her Royal Highness the Princess this time, and I will reward you heavily."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"You go down and rest first."

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Tang Yin bowed his hands and saluted again, then stepped aside.

Next, Zhan Hua stood up, stepped out of the carriage, and led the important officials to the carriage where Yin Rou was.

Wu Mei in the crowd did not follow the others, and slowly fell to the end. After everyone had passed by, she came to Tang Yin, suppressed the joy of reunion in her heart, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that there was an accident on the road?"

Tang Yin nodded and said, "Twice."

"twice?"

"Once he was attacked by bandits near Chongcheng, and the other time was in Wancheng City, last night, he was assassinated by assassins." Tang Yin took a deep look at Wu Mei and said, "Leave it to me.

No task seems to be easy to complete!"

Wu Mei's face turned slightly red at what he said, and she murmured dissatisfiedly: "How did I know that such an accident would happen?!" After saying that, her face darkened, and she gritted her teeth and said: "It's really unreasonable, who is so bold?

?”

Tang Yin said: "I have wiped out all the bandits who attempted to attack Her Royal Highness the Princess for the first time, and there were more than a thousand of them. However, the assassins for the second time were obviously well-prepared and very powerful. They also cooperated with the Lord of Wancheng inside and outside.

, they almost succeeded." He knew that this matter had little to do with Li Xian, but in order to make himself look better, he could only sacrifice Li Xian.

"Lord of Wancheng? Li Xian?" Wu Mei asked in surprise.

He nodded and said: "Yes, that's him!"

"This is really strange!" Wu Mei murmured with confusion on her face: "Li Xian is always timid and afraid of getting into trouble. Why did he suddenly go crazy and assassinate the princess this time?"

"Do you know him?" Tang Yin was shocked.

Wu Mei shrugged and said, "I had contact with him when I went to Wancheng before, but I can't say we know him."

"Oh!" After hearing this, he sighed secretly. Fortunately, Li Xian was not from the dance family, otherwise things would have been really difficult to handle.

Seeing him lowering his head to meditate, Wu Mei patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "You did a very good job this time, and the king also said just now that he will reward you heavily. It seems that your position will be improved.

." The dancer's regiment can be successfully increased by one or two. She added in her heart.

Everyone in the Feng Kingdom showed great respect for Princess Yin Rou. Not only did the king personally lead all the ministers out of the city to welcome her, but he also held a grand welcome ceremony in the palace, which could be said to give the imperial family face.

As the commander of the regiment, Tang Yin's position can only be said to be not low, but it is not high enough to enter the palace to participate in the feast.

Because of their merit in protecting the princess, he and the second regiment under his command were given a three-day holiday. The tension in the past few days was finally relieved, but Tang Yin felt a little disappointed and missing because he could not see Yin Rou.

He wanted to take advantage of these three days to have a good rest, but he didn't expect that these three days would become a turning point in his life.

Tang Yin escorted the princess from Baguan to Yancheng. Two accidents occurred along the way, but he resolved them one by one. The first time he annihilated a gang of thousands of bandits. The second time, although he did not eliminate all the assassins, he also successfully captured them.

To reach the "accomplice" Li Xian can be said to have made a great contribution.

Wu Yu, who was above the imperial court, naturally spoke well of Tang Yin and proposed that he be promoted to General Zhenxi, in charge of three corps.

The first person to speak out against his proposal was Left Prime Minister Liang Xing.

Tang Yin is a dancer, how could Liang Xing allow him to grow bigger and increase the dancer's influence? If it were anyone else, he might not object so strongly, but towards Tang Yin, he hates and fears Tang Yin from the bottom of his heart.

I also made up my mind that I would never give him a chance to become famous.

At this time, the hidden danger of Tang Yin's conflict with the Liang family completely surfaced, and it became a fatal obstacle in his career. However, it was a blessing in disguise. Liang Xing's obstruction at this time pushed Tang Yin to embark on another path completely different from the current one.
