Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 536 Yang Hong, Yang Hong...

"Lonely soul?"

Zhu Qiyu's slightly lazy expression just after reading the memorabilia disappeared suddenly, and was replaced by a frown.

After seeing the changes of a hundred years, Zhu Qiyu naturally knows that at any time, having his own power in his hands is the most stable guarantee.

It is best that this force is still hidden in the dark, so that when they emerge in front of the world, they can achieve unexpected effects.

Lonely soul is such an existence!
From Zhu Qiyu's ascension to the throne, he ordered Lu Zhong to recruit hundreds of people from all over the guards, especially the frontier army, with clean family backgrounds, outstanding martial arts skills, and a series of skills such as secret investigation and interrogation, disguise and stealth. , Eliminate traces of his hometown, report his death in battle, and then secretly send him to the capital.

Among them, Zhu Qiyu selected an elite group and formed an organization called "Lonely Soul".

This organization is attached to Jinyiwei, but in fact, it is directly under the emperor.

Every one of them was checked by Zhu Qiyu himself after going through countless rigorous procedural checks, and finally determined.

Up to now, he has tested hundreds of people in total, but only 50 people were actually selected.

Each of them is the elite of the elite, and they are absolutely loyal.

In normal times, they hide among the Jinyiwei and receive orders like ordinary sergeants.

But in fact, the only ones who can really instruct them are the oral orders issued by the emperor face to face, and the handwritten edicts written by himself.

In addition, even if the official decree was drafted by the cabinet, printed by Shang Baosi, and issued by the Sixth Division, they would not obey it.

Of course, if the imperial decree issued by the sixth division is sent to the lonely soul, it means that this organization has been completely exposed to everyone's eyes, and then it will lose its meaning of existence.

This is Zhu Qiyu's last backhand left for himself, not asking for more, but seeking for refinement!

These fifty people were divided into ten teams, each with its own code name.

Except for the five people in the team who recognize each other, the identities of the others are strictly kept secret. Even if they meet each other, they will not know who the other party is.

Zhu Qiyu is the only one who has all the information about them!

This time Yu Qian patrolled the border, because the matter was of great importance, Zhu Qiyu made an exception and sent a whole team to hide among Yu Qian's entourage.

Of course, Yu Qian didn't know this.

All he knew was that the emperor had sent a mysterious Jin Yiwei to be in charge of contacting Beijing.

It's not that Zhu Qiyu doesn't trust him, but that the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better. Sometimes, Yu Qian doesn't know, but it's good for him.

This organization, Zhu Qiyu named it "Lonely Soul", firstly, it means that this organization is everywhere like a ray of lonely soul, and secondly, it is a small sustenance to his past.

After receiving the secret letter from Lu Zhong, Zhu Qiyu slowly unfolded it, and a ferocious ghost head was outlined with blood-colored lines on it, with a bloody mouth open, making one feel chills looking at it.

This is the unique symbol of the "Scary" team in "Lonely Soul".

In fact, all those who were selected to enter the capital, including those who were not selected, had their military status removed from the very beginning, and then mixed into the Jinyiwei.

However, only those who are finally selected will be awarded the title personally conferred by Zhu Qiyu, and they will be considered to have truly entered the "lonely soul". The rest of them are basically used to deceive people.

The Horror Squad was the first and most satisfying team he picked.

Their captain, codenamed Jinghun, was from the frontier army. His family has never closed at night for generations. He is proficient in various detection and concealment techniques.

He was none other than Jin Yiwei who was with Yu Qian every day and was in charge of liaising with Beijing.

However, it should be noted that the task assigned by Zhu Qiyu to Jing Jing is to protect Yu Qian's safety, and at the same time, he is responsible for passing on Yu Qian's memorial. Under normal circumstances, Jing Jing himself does not need to submit anything.

Unless, according to his own judgment, Jing Hun feels that there is something that must be submitted to the emperor to know...

After checking the special key of the horror team and confirming that there were no traces of destruction, Zhu Qiyu raised his hand to open it.

The secret letter is not long, and the content is very simple. It is a paragraph of words that Yu Qian said in the inn that day without beginning and end.

However, after reading it, Zhu Qiyu fell into deep thought.

After a long time, a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he sighed.

"Yu Qian, Yu Qian..."

This passage seems inconsistent, but, combined with Yu Qian's memorials during this period, and his previous deliberate avoidance of the Xuanfu, the meaning is actually not difficult to guess.

Yu Qian is not afraid of offending people. How can a person who can write Lime Yin be afraid of difficulties and challenges?

The reason why he has been reluctant to go to Xuanfu is very simple.

Xuan Mansion is Yang Hong's territory!
Tao Jin is from the British government, but he has only been in Xuanfu for half a year.

Prior to this, Yang Hong guarded the Xuan Mansion for more than ten years. Until now, his nephew Yang Xin is still serving as the Deputy Commander of the Xuan Mansion.

Therefore, if the Xuanfu finds out any problems, or if there is any connection of interests, the one who will be most directly affected is Changping Marquis Yang Hong.

In other words, when Yu Qian went to investigate the issue of private land reclamation and military settlements in Xuanfu, what he touched was the interests of Yang Hong's people.

Some things, after eating, want to spit it out, but absolutely refuse.

Therefore, contradictions and conflicts will inevitably arise!
In fact, this phenomenon has already appeared. When Yang Hong first entered Beijing and the ministers discussed border affairs together, Yang Hong was very opposed to the weakening of the frontier army and the abolition of private land reclamation and military settlements. On the contrary, He advocated increasing military spending and strengthening military drills.

This actually reflects the problem.

Of course Yu Qian is not afraid of anyone.

For the sake of the country, it is Yu Qian who goes forward indomitably.

Therefore, no matter how shocking the truth was found in Datong and Gansu, he never hesitated or scrupled.

However, Yang Hong is different!
The title of Marquis of Changping, the title of "King Yang" who makes the captives fearful, and the power of the admiral of the Beijing camp in his hand, none of these can make Yu Qian hesitate.

What made him hesitate was the emperor's trust in Yang Hong.

Or, to put it further, it was the general situation that the emperor promoted the line of the Lord of the Frontier Army to check and balance the old noble forces represented by the line of the British government, which made him hesitate.

Zhu Qiyu put down the secret letter in his hand, stood up and stepped out of the palace gate, looking northwest through the white marble railing.

If there is no accident, Yu Qian has arrived at Xuanfu now.

In other words, he has already made a decision.

So now, it is he, the emperor, who needs to make a decision.

Yang Hong, Yang Hong...

With a long sigh, Zhu Qiyu stood with his hands behind his back and asked.

"A few days ago, I heard that Yang Hong was ill. Is there such a thing?"

Naturally, it was Lu Zhong who asked this question.

Although it is said that since the last performance, Lu Zhong has focused more on various places and borders, but he is still clear about the big and small news in Beijing.

He immediately replied respectfully.

"That's right. After Marquis Yang returned to the capital, he has been suffering from various minor ailments. A few days ago, after going to the Xuanfu to accompany the Supreme Emperor to offer sacrifices, his mood was agitated and he fell ill again. It is said that he is still not recovering."

Zhu Qiyu fell silent again after listening.

However, after a long time, he still ordered.

"Wynn, take the imperial physician and select some precious medicinal materials. I will go to the Marquis of Changping to visit Marquis Yang on my behalf. In addition, call his son Yang Jun back to Beijing and order Yang Jun and his nephew Yang Neng to share No. On 11th, the [-]th Regiment Battalion, Yang Xin, the commander of the capital, was promoted to be the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army's governor's mansion, and he was still in charge of the deputy commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu."

The sunset is slanting, and the sky is full of red clouds, which is the most beautiful time of the day.

At the same time, it is also the time when the sun is setting...
