C54 (1/2)
After the meeting, Tang Yin initially wanted to leave with the others, but he was stopped by Wu Mei and Wu Ying.
He did not know what was going on, but Tang Yin was confused. He sat on the chair and did not move.
Waiting until everyone had left, Wu Mei then said: ”Tang Yin, this time, I will give you guys a mission.”
”What mission?” he asked curiously.
”It's easy to say it's easy, but it's also a big mission.” Wu Mei knocked on her forehead and muttered to herself for a moment: ”We have already been fighting with the Ning Country for a few months, and the Mo Country has started to get restless with me, so war can break out at any time, and the imperial government does not wish for any large scale war to occur between the various dukes, so, this time, the imperial government sends people down to mediate, and your group's mission is to go to the Feng Mo Frontier, and escort her safely to the Yan City capital.”
”She? ”Who is she?”
”Grand princess of the Empire.”
”It's a woman?!” Tang Yin asked curiously.
”Since she's a princess, how can she be a man?”
Just as Wu Mei had said, once a war broke out between the nine great dukes within the Haotian Empire, the imperial government had the responsibility to step in and stop it.
Originally, since the Imperial Court had stepped in, the various kingdoms should have followed the sacred words and stopped the fighting. However, the imperial power of the empire was getting weaker and weaker, and the various kingdoms wouldn't listen to the emperor's commands at all.
Feng Country was a large war house, and almost every year, they would mobilize their troops to sustain the war. The number of times the imperial government sent out their Feng Country was also the highest, but every time, they would not follow the imperial edict, and they would only mediate and respond to it.
But this time, the Feng Country was very concerned about the negotiation of the imperial family, the main problem was that the current situation of the Feng Country was not optimistic. The Ning Country had lost another two hundred thousand troops, hence, they were not strong enough. In addition, within the Feng Country, there was a huge increase in bandits, causing chaos everywhere, which could be considered an internal and external threat.
If the Imperial Court succeeded in mediating and stopped the war, it would undoubtedly be beneficial to the Feng Country, and they could also take the opportunity to get over this.
This time, the imperial government sent out the Great Princess Yin Rou's Highness.
The first thing Yin Rou did was send out his Mo Country. It was unknown if it was because of her, but his Mo Country did not immediately send troops over. Next, Yin Rou would head north to the Feng Country, and then head west to the Ning Country.
No matter how weak the imperial power of the empire was, Yin Rou was, after all, the Grand Princess, a member of the imperial family.
Having a whole regiment protect the princess, and also being within the borders of the Feng Country, was undoubtedly a beautiful job that was both easy and worthwhile. On top of the Imperial Court, Wu Yu and Liang Xing had a great war of words as to how to obtain the mission to escort the princess over, and then, after discussing it with the two sisters Wu Mei, he decided to send Tang Yin's Second Regiment over.
”Only protecting one person, is there a need to send out a single regiment?” Tang Yin found it hard to understand.
”How can a princess travel alone? There are also a large number of palace maids and palace guards by his side. ” Wu Mei laughed: ”But no matter what, Your Highness is a princess with a thousand kilograms of body, within my Feng Country, there cannot be any loopholes, so we have to dispatch a legion, to display the importance that my Feng Country attaches to, and to display the strength of my Feng Country. You just have to protect Her Highness the Princess. But if anything happens to the Princess, not even ten of your heads will be kept, and it will implicate the entire Wu Family. So, this mission is also extremely important, Tang Yin, do you understand? ”
”Alright, I understand.” Tang Yin asked: When do I leave?
”From the capital city to the border, even if you want to make an urgent march, it will still take six or seven days. The day after tomorrow, you will have to bring your regiment with you.” Wu Ying said.
”No problem.” Tang Yin agreed straightforwardly.
Tang Yin actually liked this mission. He was a prodigal son, he had already lived in the Yan City for a long time, the novelty from the start had long disappeared, he would be able to relax after this escort mission.
”Alright, go back and prepare.”
”Farewell!”
After leaving the palace, Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen returned to their own residences. Along the way, Qiu Zhen said with a smile: ”Big Brother Tang, this mission is a beautiful job, looks like Prime Minister Wu has the intention of promoting you!”
Tang Yin raised his head, and said: ”I am already a Regiment Commander, if I were to be promoted again, what other positions would I have left?”
Qiu Zhen thought for a moment, lowered his voice, and said: ”Now that the Liang Family is big, maybe even Wu Family will be prepared to expand the divisions under it. At that time, it might not be impossible for Big Brother Tang to control two or three of the divisions.”
”Ha ha!” Tang Yin smiled as he waved his hand, and said, ”I'm not interested in this kind of guess that Zi Wu Xu has.”
He did not take this mission too seriously, but Qiu Zhen had already set his heart and mind on this, and his brain was starting to spin, thinking about how to let Tang Yin complete this mission perfectly and brilliantly.
On the day of their departure, Tang Yin woke up early and went to the barracks with Qiu Zhen.
