Yesterday, Yin Tianxing met with Magistrate Liu in private.
Very few people in the Western Region knew that he was a prince, and Yin Tianxing did not hide it from Magistrate Liu because he was a rare and good official, and he cooperated very well with his master.
"Master Liu, I received a letter, please take a look first."
Magistrate Liu was very shocked after reading it. He also took out a letter and said, "Your Highness, please read this!"
Yin Tianxing quickly read the letter, and the content was similar to the one he sent to Magistrate Liu.
"This letter repeatedly asked me not to tell anyone so as not to alert others. I really didn't expect that the prince would actually receive a similar letter."
"What are Master Liu going to do?" In comparison, Yin Tianxing seemed much calmer.
"I want to personally lead a group of people to capture Ling Yuan at noon tomorrow."
The emperor has already sent a secret report, asking him to help eliminate Tianji.
Yin Tianxing shook his head, "No!"
"Why?"
"The people of the Western Region regard Tianji as a life-saving straw, but Mr. Liu, you represent the imperial court."
"Your Majesty, are you saying that the people will be even more disgusted with the government if they know about it? Don't worry, I will be even more careful and never let anyone leak this!"
"But there is no airtight wall in the world. If there is someone with ulterior motives among the people who go there, and he deliberately spreads the news afterwards, I'm afraid the situation will be out of control. You also know how terrible rumors are, and many words are spread around. It’s changed!”
“What if I only bring people I trust?”
Yin Tianxing still shook his head, "But we can't be sure who the person who wrote the letter is. What if the other party has set up a trap? Maybe he just wants to use our hands to get rid of the people he wants to get rid of, and at the same time, he wants to use our hands to get rid of the people he wants to get rid of. This incident has intensified the conflict between the people and the government!"
"Your Majesty is considering it!"
He really hadn't thought about this, and Magistrate Liu suddenly felt worried.
"This is just the possible consequence that I can think of. In addition, there may be more and deeper conspiracies behind this, so we must proceed with caution." Yin Tianxing looked solemn.
Magistrate Liu frowned, "My lord, what do you think we should do?"
"I must go. Father's will cannot be disobeyed, but this matter must be resolved secretly, and you must not come forward, otherwise it may damage the people's support!"
"Who else can go but me?"
"Me!" Yin Tianxing replied in a deep voice: "It is most appropriate for me to resolve this matter. Firstly, the people in the Western Region do not know my true identity. Secondly, only when I see my father with my own eyes can I be more convinced!"
"But as the prince said, we don't know who the person who wrote the letter is. What if they really set an ambush? In short, your safety is the most important thing. I can never let you take risks."
"The stability of the Western Territory and the Yin Kingdom is the most important. Mr. Liu, since my father sent me to the Western Territory, I must be responsible for the safety of the Western Territory. This is my duty. I hope you will no longer worry about my prince. In other words, because I am a prince and enjoy so many rights that ordinary people cannot enjoy, I am even more responsible for this matter!"
Magistrate Liu looked deeply at Yin Tianxing. He admired this third prince very much, and selfishly hoped that he could inherit the throne in the future.
It's a pity that the emperor's favorite is still the fifth prince whom he has never met.
Magistrate Liu didn't know that Yin Tianxun had also come to the Western Region, so he didn't know what kind of person the fifth prince was.
He was dissatisfied with Sun Chen, but Sun Chen was the emperor's most trusted minister, and Sun Guifei was the emperor's favorite concubine. I think in the future...
But he still unswervingly supported the third prince. For the sake of Dayin, he could not let Yin Tianxing get into trouble.
"My lord, you can go, but I must send someone to protect you secretly."
"No need!" Yin Tianxing decisively refused, "Too many people will attract unnecessary attention. Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I will select a few capable men in the military camp to follow."
Magistrate Liu still wanted to insist, but Yin Tianxing wouldn't let him speak, so he raised his majesty as a prince and said, "This is an order. No mistakes are allowed in this matter, otherwise neither you nor I will be able to bear this responsibility."
"yes!"
Since it was an order, he could only obey it.
"If possible, I hope Mr. Liu can accompany me!" Yin Tianxing said suddenly.
Magistrate Liu looked at Yin Tianxing in disbelief, "You mean Shaopu?"
"Yes, I wonder if Mr. Liu agrees?"
"Of course I agree, but I don't understand why the prince would let Shaopu go with him."
"I often hear my master, my wife, and Ah Zai praising Young Master Liu. I think they will never get the wrong person!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but many people know that Shaopu is my son. If he is seen, will it be considered that the government is involved in this matter?"
"I will prepare a mask so that no one will discover his true face."
"Since there is a mask, why not come with me, so that I can feel at ease."
"No, Young Master Liu knows martial arts but you don't. Besides, I also want to see if Young Master Liu is really as intelligent as Master said."
It turns out that the prince deliberately wanted to test Shaopu.
That kid Shaopu is good at everything, but he is a bit unprofessional.
Which parent in the world doesn't want his child to be successful, but he doesn't want to push Shaopu too hard, so he never said harsh words to him.
The incident in Shuangshui Village made him feel for the first time that Shaopu had grown up, and Magistrate Liu hoped that he could continue to do so, so that the father and son could work together to guard the peace of the Western Territory.
Magistrate Liu is from the Western Region. He loves this land deeply, so even if he had the opportunity to stay in the Central Plains as an official, he still decided to return to his homeland.
There are indeed many development opportunities in the Central Plains, but the Central Plains may not really need him.
A person's determination can only be demonstrated by going to places that many people are unwilling to go.
He does not want to be an official, but to become a useful person who truly works for the people and the country.
The Western Region is the place where he should stay most. This is the land that gave birth to him and raised him. He has the responsibility to make this place better.
Since he has to do things wherever he goes, he should stay in the most unstable place in the country. Only in this way can he be challenged and can better reflect his own value.
Shaopu is his only child, and Magistrate Liu sincerely hopes that he can guard this home with him.
Shaopu was really smart, but he didn't focus on serious matters. The most lacking thing in the Western Region right now was talents. He wished that Shaopu could calm down and concentrate on doing good and pragmatic things.
I heard that Shaopu went to Shuangshui Village because of Lin Sheng. He sent someone to inquire about Lin Sheng. That girl was married to Miss Lin Zai and everyone spoke well of her. That's why Magistrate Liu agreed to Shaopu's marriage to Lin Sheng. .
In fact, the one that Prefect Liu likes the most is Miss Lin Zai. Like General Li, she works tirelessly for the country and the people, which is really rare for a woman.
It's a pity that Shaopu only admires Miss Lin Zai and has no other intentions.
Emotional matters cannot be forced, and he cannot make his own decisions, not to mention that Miss Lin Zai only admires Shaopu purely.
Governor Liu is really very enlightened on this point.
He had already met Lin Sheng, the girl was lovely, and he sincerely accepted that Lin Sheng would become his daughter-in-law.
It would be better if Shaopu can improve with the help of Lin Sheng.
If the Third Prince really takes a fancy to Shaopu and is willing to support him, it will definitely be a great benefit to the Western Region. I hope Shaopu can seize this opportunity.
"If Mr. Liu is really a malleable talent as Master said, then I hope he can become a good official that the people really need like Mr. Liu."
Yin Tianxing recalled what Lin Sheng had said. He owed Lin Sheng this, so he would do his best to fulfill her wish.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Shaopu will leave it to you!"
"I also want to cultivate talents for the Western Region, Master Liu. I will come here to pick up Mr. Liu before setting off tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll tell Shaopu about this in a moment."
He will have a good talk with Shaopu.
"You must stay here tomorrow. You must not go there privately, let alone send someone to follow you secretly!" Yintian's jargon carries a sense of dignity.
"yes!"
Magistrate Liu knows what's appropriate. This is no small matter, and he will never act out of emotion.
"The Tianji incident may really come to an end after tomorrow, but you and I must still keep it a secret and must not mention it to anyone else, including my master and the others."
"Yes!" Magistrate Liu responded solemnly.
"Don't worry, I guarantee Mr. Liu will come back safely!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
In fact, Magistrate Liu was more worried about the prince's safety.
It's great that Shaopu can follow him. On the one hand, he can learn more from the prince, and on the other hand, with Shaopu here, he can at least protect the prince.

Ling Qiuyun asked people to find a lot of ice so that Cheng Mu's body would not go rancid.
He was dead, but Ling Qiuyun still came to talk to him after a while.
The men in black who were guarding were all wondering why he was chatting with a dead man for so long.
They were all dead soldiers of the Rong Kingdom who had sneaked in as ordinary people. Without Ling Qiuyun's secret assistance, they would not have been able to get in and out of the city so easily.
They knew very little about Ling Qiuyun, but they just felt that he didn't like talking to others, so they were inevitably surprised to see him chatting with that dead man for so long.
Ling Qiuyun knew that he felt withdrawn, but he was forced to do nothing. His mother forced him to do something in the name of love every day, and no other children were willing to play with him. Over time, he became like this.
He had been feeling aggrieved for too long. The reason why Ling Qiuyun was willing to talk to Cheng Mu was because Cheng Mu was the only person who truly and actively wanted to listen to him and vent.
"Do you think she will come tomorrow? Although you have warned her not to be stupid, I also know her very well. Her heart is as soft as yours, so she will definitely do this stupid thing!"
Ling Qiuyun began to talk to himself again.
"You are betting, and I am betting too, but I will definitely win this time, so just watch carefully!"
He seemed to be angry.
"I told you to leave the Western Territory, but you just didn't listen. Not only that, you also tried to threaten me with death." Ling Qiuyun suddenly laughed, which made him look even crazier, "Just watch, I It will definitely not go as you want, you ask me to let go of my paranoia but I won’t let go, you ask me to be a good person but I will be a bad person, Cheng Mu, just wait and see!”
