Chapter 328 The Templars

A servant slowly walked into the hall holding a golden scroll in his hand, and respectfully bowed to Qin Yin with his last emperor's will.

Qin Yin nodded: "Read."

The minister immediately launched the will and said loudly: "If I encounter unexpected situations in this trip, don't panic. The foundation of the Great Qin Empire for thousands of years must not be destroyed by the thief. If I do not return, I will make Qin Yin the Emperor of the Great Qin, and order the world. I will then confer Lin Muyu as the 'King of Tianshu' and take charge of all military and political affairs in Tianshu Province. My adopted son will be regarded as his own, and all the ministers shall not disobey."

Lin Muyu was stunned and looked at Qin Yin, as if he was doubting the authenticity of the last emperor's will.

Qin Yin took the will from his servants and unfolded it to Lin Muyu. His beautiful face was filled with sadness and said, "Brother Ayu, you should know the handwriting of your father."

The handwriting on the will was round, vigorous, and powerful, with a strong momentum that penetrated the back of the paper. Indeed, this was indeed Qin Jin's calligraphy. In terms of calligraphy, Qin Jin was also among the top ten in the empire, and it was not that easy to forge it.

Qin Yin's eyes were a little wet and murmured: "Brother Ayu, we found a father-in-law who escaped in Tianshu Province. He said... Before his death, the greatest regret in his life was that he had never looked at you with the eyes of his father looking at his son. This is his regret, so his holy edict is to compensate you."

Lin Muyu's nose felt sour and she nodded: "I understand."

...

At this moment, one of the ministers clasped his fists and spoke. It was Tang Lu of the Tang family. He looked at Qin Yin with a firm look and said, "Your Highness, as the saying goes, the foreign surname cannot be granted a king. Your Majesty's surname is Qin, and Lin Muyu's surname is Lin. Moreover, even if Lin Muyu has high merit, he is not as high as being granted a king, so I think it is inappropriate to enthrone Lin Muyu as king."

Qin Yin looked at him very calmly and asked again: "Are there any other objections?"

Among the crowd, many ministers turned their attention to Su Muyun, so Su Muyun said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, although this is the will of the late emperor, after all, when the late emperor drafted the edict, he did not know that there would be so many drastic changes in the empire, and he did not know that the wolves of Yihe Country was ambition. It was time and time. At present, the empire is in ruins. It was inappropriate to be crowned king at this time, and it was against people's will."

On the other side, Tang Lan also clasped his fists and said, "The old minister also thinks that the matter of being named king is inappropriate, and the current Tianshu province is controlled by Yun Gong. If Lin Muyu is appointed as the King of Tianshu, Yun Gong may be unhappy."

Su Muyun looked at Tang Lan with a sword, but did not say anything.

Lin Muyu took a deep breath and finally realized for the first time how hard it was for the empress Qin Yin. Almost not many of His Highness’ ministers were Qin Yin’s people.

At this time, Feng Jixing frowned and said, "Your Highness, since all the ministers think it is wrong to be named king, it is better not to be appointed as king and directly promote Lin Muyu to general. With Lin Muyu's outstanding achievements, he deserves this general."

Tang Xiaoxi also said: "I also think Mu Mu should be promoted to general."

Among the crowd, a man wearing a robe of a general and wearing three Venus stars on his neck said with his fist: "Your Highness, the last general has been pride since he was promoted to the Minister of War. In July last year, His Highness personally issued a decree to reorganize the Imperial Legion. If a general wants to be promoted, he must be measured by military merit. Although General Lin Muyu made great achievements three years ago, he is now the new emperor. Therefore, the last general believes that any military position at this time is contrary to the new law. I don't know whether Your Highness thinks that the last general is wrong."

"Xue Ling, you..."

Qin Yin's face turned red with anger, and she wanted to immediately take off Xue Ling's position as Minister of War, but Xue Ling was Tang Lan's man and could not move at all.

Obviously, Tang Lan didn't want to see Lin Muyu taking charge of military power, and even did not give Lin Muyu the opportunity to be a centurion.

Qin Yin was a little angry, looked at Su Muyun, and asked for help, "Grandpa, do you think Lin Muyu can't even give him a military position? Even if he can restore his rank as a general to protect the country, he will not be able to do so."

Su Muyun clasped his fists and said, "Xiao Yin, since the new law has been promulgated, we must strictly abide by it. Yihe Country is ready to move. If Ayu wants to make more military achievements, there is no need to be in a hurry."

Feng Jixing frowned and had no choice. Nearly 90% of the nearly 10,000 ministers in the court were Su Muyun and Tang Lan, and others had no say at all.

Tang Xiaoxi was a little angry, pointed to the ministers behind him, and asked loudly indignantly: "You group of people... Humph, you are so shameless. Lin Muyu led the Longtian Camp to fight against Long Qianlin's main force, and killed nearly 70,000 Long Qianlin with 15,000 people. Who can do it? Moreover, Lin Muyu also ordered the Longtian Camp to protect His Highness Qin Yin and protect the bloodline of the empire. Who of you has such a contribution? But now, you are in high positions but stop Lin Muyu from obtaining any military position. I will only ask one question, are you, a decent guy, shameless?"

"Good curses." Feng Jixing lowered his head and smiled secretly: "Princess Xi is really amazing..."

Xue Ling, the Minister of War, smiled at Tang Xiaoxi awkwardly, and said, "Princess Xi, we are just following the law. Please forgive me. We have no intention of making things difficult for Lord Lin Muyu..."

"Yeah."

Tang Xiaoxi stared at him angrily, and the fire fox martial soul lingered around granite body, as if he was about to take action.

Lin Muyu was really afraid that Tang Xiaoxi would be "angry" in the court, so she hurriedly said, "Xiaoxi, okay, if you don't have a reward, you won't have a reward, I don't care, so it's better..."

Qin Yin opened his bright eyes and looked at him, saying, "What better way is Ayu?"

"Um."

Lin Muyu turned around and looked at the ministers, clasped his fists and smiled humbly, and said, "Just as the Minister of War said that he obeys the law. Since the law has been promulgated, it must be obeyed. If that is the case... I'd better go back to the temple. It just so happened that the Deacon Ge Yang decided to hand over the position of the Deacon of the Temple to me. This should be meaningless for everyone."

Tang Tian was stunned: "The temple is the foundation of the country. The position of the great deacon is very important. How can you say it to you?"

Lin Muyu raised her eyebrows and said, "I have read the imperial decree. The candidates for the Temple Deacon have always been decided by the Emperor. If Xiao Yin wants me to be the Temple Deacon, who dares to intervene?"

As he said that, he suddenly pulled out the sword behind him and stabbed the sword into the carpet in front with a "while" sound. Mars burst into pieces, and the sword roared endlessly. Lin Muyu smiled faintly without anger and said, "The name of this empire is 'Qin', and the monarch of this empire is Qin Yin. As ministers, we should understand the way of being a minister. I am the adopted son of the emperor and Xiao Yin's brother. I will protect her and prevent her from being wronged again. If anyone is dissatisfied, even if I come to the temple to try whether this sword is sharp, I will accompany you at any time."

Tang Tian couldn't speak under Lin Muyu's aura, and was stunned and didn't know what to say.

Tang Lan and Su Muyun looked at each other with frowns, and no one said anything. This time there was no way to make things difficult. Lin Muyu followed the imperial laws, which no one could disobey. Even if these two great masters covered the sky with one hand in Lanyan City, they still could not openly disobey the imperial laws. This was the first battle for Lin Muyu's resurrection and return, and he won.

Feng Jixing stood at His Highness, with a joyful look on his face and said in a low voice: "A Yu, this guy...is good."

Wei Qiu also nodded and smiled: "It's great to have the control..."

Tang Xiaoxi looked at Lin Muyu happily standing on the king's stairs. The more she looked, the more she liked it. I really didn't know what to do.

...

At this time, Su Muyun stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Congratulations to Lord Lin Muyu for being promoted to the Great Deacon of the Temple, which is really worthy."

Tang Lan also clasped his fists and congratulated him. Soon, the ministers congratulated him one after another, and it turned out to be a group of flatterers.

However, according to the rules, the imperial guards of the Longtian camp still cannot expand their troops. Any expansion of the army requires Tang Lan and Su Muyun, the two grand dukes of Zhenguo, nodded together, so Qin Yin had no choice.

But after all, Lin Muyu was given the position of a temple deacon, and he could still show his strengths.

In the afternoon, Tang Xiaoxi, Feng Jixing, Wei Qiu and Lin Muyu returned to the temple together. The ceremony of taking over as the temple's deacon was very simple and completed in a hurry. Next, the temple returned to the situation of a great deacon and four deacons again.

In the hall, a group of people surrounded the round table, staring at each other.

Feng Jixing held the teacup, swayed for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm so angry... The two great masters have never easily expanded their troops and the Longtan Camp. Do you want to keep us from a force of only 21,000? To be honest, this force can't do anything at all."

Tang Xiaoxi looked at Lin Muyu and asked, "Mumu, can you continue to recruit soldiers and horses in Longyan Mountain and secretly strengthen the Longdan Camp."

“This can be considered.”

Lin Muyu nodded and smiled, "I just worry that Mr. Yun and your grandfather, Lan Guild, are in a difficult situation everywhere, so there are many inconveniences."

Tang Xiaoxi smiled apologetically and said, "Mumu, don't be angry with grandpa. Actually, I don't know when grandpa became like this. Power seems to have occupied everything for him."

"Maybe Mr. Lan has always been like this." Wei Qiu smiled sarcastically.

Lin Muyu pondered, looked at Deacon Ge Yang and asked, "Grandpa Ge Yang, I checked it. Almost all the houses behind our temple are abandoned. Can we buy these houses?"

"What do the deacon wants these houses to do?" Ge Yang said in surprise.

"Rebuild these houses into barracks, and then build new training grounds, school grounds, etc." Lin Muyu said with a smile: "It probably won't cost much money. It just so happens that I have a large amount of gold coins to spend here."

"It really doesn't cost much money. Ayu, what are you thinking?" Ge Yang asked with confusion.

Lin Muyu continued to ask: "How many temple branches are there in the empire."

"1324." Ge Yang said as a treasure, "There are about 20-50 temple staff in each branch, which is basically the case."

Lin Muyu nodded: "My first order to be promoted to the Great Deacon is to send 8-10 outstanding people to the imperial capital to serve in the temples of the whole country, so that we can provide us with nearly 10,000 temple staff."

Ge Yang was stunned: "Ah."

Feng Jixing laughed and clapped his hands and said, "What a Yu, this move is really amazing. The temple does not belong to the imperial army. A Yu intends to use the temple to build an army."

"That's right, Mr. Lan and Mr. Yun don't let me have a private army, so I will build a temple army of ten thousand people for the temple as the deacon of the temple. Wei Qiu dispatched the generals of the Longdan Camp to the temple to coach the tactics and formations. I want to use the temple to strengthen the Longdan Camp. In this way, Xiao Yin will have more bargaining chips."

"Well, Brother Feng will definitely support you with all his strength." Feng Jixing clasped his fists, his face full of smiles.
