022 Shock

Liu Chengyuan returned to Beijing this time and stayed for a short time. After the reception and debriefing, he would leave Beijing soon. Therefore, after a group of old ministers rushed to have a banquet one by one, he went to the palace again. It was almost ten days later.

Bai Shaoqing sat at the head with a smile on his face as usual, and Liu Chengyuan sat at the bottom. This is Qianning Palace. Today, Liu Chengyuan is a saint who enters the palace alone, that is, without the company of Zhu Guogong. Naturally, Bai Shaoqing can only laugh and can't say anything. Most of the time, Liu Chengyuan is talking, and she just listens to it.

Liu Chengyuan chatted and talked about some military situation on the border, but his expression was looking at her carefully. Maybe it was related to his identity as a general. Usually, the eyes of Duke Zhu and others stared at her were always gentle and soft. Only the general in front of her always frightened her. She couldn't Don't make a more dull and confused look than usual to hide the uneasiness in your heart.

"Your Majesty, I will leave Beijing in a few days. Before leaving, I want to test the iron guards in Beijing. If the emperor can visit in person, his morale will definitely increase greatly. What does the emperor want?"

Iron guard? The Iron Army under the rule of Queen Wu? Bai Shaoqing's interest increased greatly, but he still pretended to be stupid: "Inspecting?"

Liu Chengyuan smiled and explained patiently, "It's just that I accompanied the emperor to meet some soldiers. It's fun."

"Okay, let's go." The emperor looked very happy. He immediately got up and raised his feet to go out. Liu Chengyuan waved his hand and pulled him. He smiled and said, "It's not now, Your Majesty. Tomorrow, I will come to pick you up tomorrow." Bai Shaoqing turned his head and smiled innocently at this big face, but his heart suddenly felt slightly cold, because Too close, she suddenly saw a murderous spirit in Liu Chengyuan's eyes.

This man wants to kill her! No, this man is going to kill Yue Chongjin. No, he is going to rebel!

Bai Shaoqing was so excited that he calmed down and shouted happily, "It's settled. You can't go back on your word. You must come to pick me up tomorrow."

Liu Chengyuan still didn't let go of her hand, but smiled and said, "I'm afraid that Lord Zhu and others are not willing to let the emperor go up and play."

"What should I do? I'm going." Bai Shaoqing stared at the eyes.

"Did you take the emperor out quietly? All right?" Liu Chengyuan came closer, and a pair of big copper bell eyes narrowed, revealing a little light.

"Okay, okay." Bai Shaoqing nodded vibly and felt that his eyes were still on his face for a moment. Then he withdrew his hand and retreated.

She stared at his background disappearing in front of her, and then slowly moved back to her original position. With such a skill, her body was covered in cold sweat, soaking her heart, wet and cold.

Liu Chengyuan! The minister of the Ministry of War, the first-class Yongguo Hou, he actually wants to rebel!

This person is different from Yuelin. Yuelin is brave and resourceful. He is just a prince who is used to enjoying glory and wealth. Only when his vanity is instigated for a while can he act confusedly.

But Liu Chengyuan is different. He must be careful when he has been fighting for many years. For him, control and prevention is a small thing like eating and sleeping, and what's more fatal is that he has soldiers! Since he wants to rebel, he must not have come to Beijing alone. Presumably, at this moment, his army has gradually approached the capital, waiting for his order. As far as Bai Shaoqing knows, Liu Chengyuan is guarded at the junction of the Moon. Because Qin attacked the Moon Kingdom six times, the protection of this position is stronger than the border of Yuechu, with a full of 120,000 people. However, Liu Chengyuan should not uproot the team. If he wants to be the emperor himself, he should also take measures to prevent Qin. Even if he only takes half of his troops back to Beijing, it will be 60,000.

Bai Shaoqing sat down and tried to recall what he usually heard and saw. There were about 13,000 imperial guards and the imperial army guarding the capital, and Ye Kun, the nine-door admiral, had 20,000 people. Ye Kun is not a relative. His people can be loyal to the Moon King, but they can also be used by Liu Chengyuan. At this moment, I'm afraid that only the Royal Forest Army and these relatives can really focus on his side. Liu Chengyuan wants to take him out of the palace quietly, that is, to guard against the Royal Forest Army. It can be seen that the Royal Forest Army is still on his side for the time being, and Yue Chongjin Once they fall, the status of those foreign relatives will also collapse, so they are also their own people.

Think again, Dong Chenglin, the general at the junction of Chu Yue, has 70,000 soldiers and horses, but the distant water can't save the near fire. If he is transferred from the surrounding states and counties, it is very likely to frighten the snake. At this moment, the only gap is that Liu Chengyuan believes that Yue Chongjin has not only lost his memory but also become a stupid person, which is a secret that must not be discovered. Secondly, Liu Chengyuan wanted to go against it. The army suppressed the border, but there was no movement from the state and county from the south. That only shows one thing, that is, Liu Chengyuan has bought the officials on this path, that is to say, half of the Yueguo has fallen into his hands!

But how can I quietly notify you at this moment? Who to inform? Duke Zhu or modest? These two are Wenchens, not to mention that they believe in Liu Chengyuan. Even if they believe it, can't they pull out the family to protect the courtyard? No way. Bai Shaoqing frowned and pressed down the idea.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered Liu Chengyuan's words, Tie Wei! Yes, there are also 8,000 iron guards in Beijing. These people are not under the control of the imperial army. They are stationed in the west of the city, with a single battalion, occupying one-fifth of the position in the capital. The iron army guarding the capital has been stationed in the capital since Hui. Although nearly 10,000 people live in the capital, which is sometimes controversial, the iron army has never been allowed to be outside for more than a decade.

However, Bai Shaoqing also thought that Yue Chongjin did not pay attention to them. I'm afraid that there have been a lot of frictions over the years, and Liu Chengyuan invited himself to participate in the inspection of the Iron Army, which is very likely that the Iron Army has been owned by him. The idea flashed by, which caused her heart palpitations, but the thought calmed down a little. Liu Chengyuan has been stationed outside for many years, while the iron army is in Beijing. Liu Chengyuan's army defends the border, but the iron army protects Beijing, which can be regarded as their respective duties. Although Liu Chengyuan led troops into Beijing and must have made an conceded to Tie Wei, this team may also be ignored by him because of the same problem. The Iron Army was not valued by the Moon King. Over the years, it has been doing nothing, which breeds dissatisfaction. Will Liu Chengyuan slightly ignore their existence because of this? When his army suppresses the boundary, the iron army itself will also turn with the wind, favoring his side of good martial arts and bravery?

Bai Shaoqing couldn't help clenching her fists with both hands. At this moment, there is no other way. She must take risks and go to the Iron Army to explore the truth. If the Iron Army and Liu Chengyuan have reached a consensus, then Yuejing is difficult to defend. She will find a way to take Yue Chongjin away and plan to do it again. If the Iron Army is on the side of Yue Chongjin, this Zhan, maybe there are still four chances!

If you want to stay outside, you must first settle down inside!

When she made up her mind, Bai Shaoqing also came to her senses and immediately turned around and walked to the harem. She was going to find Xiao Fuzi and tell him about it. At this moment, Li Fu was the only person who could share the burden for her.
