Although there have always been rumors that one of Li Tang's clan relatives is plotting to regain power for Li Han, Li Mao has not paid attention, since the first year, the power of the kings of the Li Tang clan has been greatly restricted, the kings live a good life, and do not need to bear specific state administrative responsibilities, and slowly ambition and ability have degenerated.

Now that they are a bunch of parasites waiting to die, they must not even have much of an opinion on themselves. Such a system is undoubtedly beneficial to the people of the world, the kings live in Chang'an, although there are Huawu delicacies, in the end there is no power and power, and the Son of Heaven is staring at death, even if you want to endanger the people, there is no way to talk about it, occasionally a few different people are local officials, but also must follow the rules of officialdom, follow the rules, and can't make any big waves.

Whether this matter came out of nowhere, or whether it was true, Li Mao decided to inquire about it.

Qin Fengmian personally rushed to Chang'an, sat in command, and after a month of investigation, he still couldn't draw a conclusion, seeing that the return date was approaching, Qin Fengmian gritted his teeth and decided to see Chen Shu. Chen Shu is still in charge of the group, but he has been a little sad lately.

Soon after Li Han succeeded to the throne, Wang Shoucheng used his title of lieutenant of the Right Shence Army to exchange control of the Wufang Envoy from Qiu Shiliang. During this time, he was making every effort to promote the merger and reorganization of the two "Sky Eyes". Wang Shoucheng's reorganization plan is to merge the main cadres of the Longxiang battalion into the Wufang Envoy, and the power to control the world in the future will be vested in the Wufang Envoy, and the armed forces in the Longxiang battalion will be selected to rebuild the Longxiang Army, as one of the Beiya Forbidden Army, to defend the palace and follow the public opinion.

Wufang envoy Si Ben is the palace internal affairs agency, responsible for the emperor to collect, raise eagles, dogs, horses and other rare beasts, because Wufang children are numerous, widely distributed, well-informed, can collect some information of interest for the emperor, over time it has developed into a powerful "eye of the sky", become a secret agency on a par with the Longxiang camp, directly under the palace.

However, the affairs of the Wufang Envoy Division are very miscellaneous, and although the number of children in Wufang who listen to the news is large, the training is seriously insufficient, so no matter in terms of organization, personnel, experience or actual achievements, the Wufang Envoy Division is far from the Longxiang Battalion.

Whether it was in the Li Mao period or in the Lin Ying period, the Long Xiang Battalion (Army) did not take the Wufang envoy seriously, thinking that he was not qualified to be his opponent. This situation lasted until Qiu Shiliang served as the envoy of the five squares, and under the rectification of Qiu Shiliang, the envoys of the five squares underwent a radical change, the organization and personnel were rapidly upgraded, and the comprehensive strength rose sharply, and in just a few years, it could be on an equal footing with the Longxiang battalion.

What makes the Longxiang camp even more uneasy is that the reborn Wufang envoy has won the emperor's favor, and the Wufang envoy lives in the inner palace and can meet the emperor at any time, while the military envoy of the Longxiang camp who is one step away often can't see the emperor for several months.

Although the core of Chang'an's power is now Wang Shoucheng is not the emperor, but the emperor is the co-master of the world after all, is the source of power, Wang Shoucheng's powerful position today is caused by his monopoly on the source of light and heat for his own use, he himself will not shine, once he loses the emperor's care, he can only withdraw from the stage of power competition.

Being snubbed by the emperor made Lin Ying feel unprecedented panic, and after many efforts failed, he could only turn his head and reconcile and cooperate with Wang Shoucheng.

At his suggestion, Wang Shoucheng first used the title of lieutenant of the Right Shence Protector Army to move away from Qiu Shiliang, which is also beneficial to Wang Shoucheng, the emperor is the source of power in the world, this spring can only be monopolized by himself, how can Qiu Shiliang also intervene?

Lin Ying carefully made a situation and placed the envoys of Wufang, and when the emperor was stunned, Wang Shoucheng took the opportunity to speak, and Qiu Shiliang could only defeat Huarong Dao and obediently went to the Shence Army. Although the lieutenant of the guard army has a high status, he is far away from the emperor, and Wang Shoucheng has the opportunity to do something.

The overall situation has been decided, Wang Shoucheng began to promote the merger of the two, vowing to turn the Wufang Envoy into his husband and wife shop Wang Shoucheng and Lin Ying, Lin Ying was the shopkeeper in front of the stage, Wang Shoucheng was hidden behind the scenes, and the two worked together to blind the emperor's eyes and completely cut off his evil thoughts.

There is a forbidden area in the Longxiang camp - the Organization Investigation Bureau, which is the core secret organization founded by Li Mao himself and has been in charge of his confidant Chen Shu.

Lin Ying only has the right to know, but has no right to interfere in all the actions of the organization, Chen Shu is the master in this forbidden land, and he can make his own decisions. This naturally caused Lin Ying's dissatisfaction, the reason why he did not take Chen Shu for a long time was that his strength was not good, second, he had no time to take care of it, and third, although Chen Shu acted domineeringly, he was still loyal and maintained to himself; Fourth, Chen Shu is Li Mao's person, and keeping him can maintain his alliance with Li Mao.

That was before, but now everything has changed, he and Wang Shoucheng are tied together, Wang Shoucheng can't allow Li Mao's cronies to sleep next to the couch, Chen Shu must be moved.

"The status of the group is not high, but the family business is not small, if I am out, it will inevitably be a river of blood, which is also extremely unfavorable to the Taibao. What instructions does the CPIC have on this matter? ”

"Taibao's meaning is naturally that it is best not to tear his face, and I believe that Lieutenant Wang and General Lin also mean the same." After a slight pause, Qin Fengmian suddenly asked, "What is the chance of King Song's plan?" ”

"I used to say that there were thirty percent, but now even Li Taibao knows about it, hum, I'm afraid that even one percent is gone."

"So...... This is our private discussion: how about making a fuss about this? ”

"Betraying the King of Song and showing favor to the king and Lin?"

"Or maybe they can open the net, at least they can have room to maneuver."

"What do you ...... say?"

"I said it was our brothers talking in private."

Or...... You can give it a try. ”

Li Mao received Qin Fengmian's secret report and learned that it was Song King Li Jie who was secretly contacting forces to prepare to overthrow Wang Shoucheng and correct Li Han, and he gasped unconsciously. Asked left and right: "What position does King Song have now?" ”

Cai Wencai said: "Shangshu's left servant shoots and leads the Fengxiang Festival ambassador, who has a very high rank and has no real power. ”

Shi Kong said: "This is a matter of losing his head, and the prince of Li Tang still has this courage, which is admirable." ”

Li Mao said: "It's a fart, Qin Fengmian asked casually and asked the clue, how could Wang Shoucheng not know?" If things can't be done, they will affect countless innocents, this is a brutal job, immediately send someone to Chang'an, and let Qin Fengmian try to dissuade him. ”

Qin Fengmian did not dare to slack off after receiving Li Mao's instructions, and took the opportunity to send congratulatory gifts to the palaces before the Dragon Boat Festival, and came to the Song Palace's mansion with Hu Sijin, the master of the Jinju Academy, met Li Jie, and talked with Li Jie about the kung fu of a stick of incense behind closed doors. Qin Fengmian said: "I am very stubborn, and I don't die if I don't see the Yellow River." ”

Hu Sijin said: "Saiong lost his horse, he knows the blessings and misfortunes, we have done our best, and let us obey the destiny of heaven." ”

During the Dragon Boat Festival, Li Han set up a banquet by the Taiye pool and invited the relatives of the clan to drink and feast. Wang Shoucheng and other relatives of the inner court were naturally also present to accompany him. Before Yamato, the status of the eunuchs in the inner court was not high, although they held heavy power, they had no seats to sit at every banquet, and those who were named in the inner province had to take charge of chores, indicating that no matter how powerful they were, they were still the domestic slaves of the Li royal family.

But as soon as the new dynasty was established, all this changed drastically, and now the two privy envoys and the lieutenants of the two armies could sit at the same table with the princes and nobles of the royal palace in a grand manner, talking and laughing.

During the banquet, Wang Shoucheng got up to toast to Li Jie, the king of Song, and Li Jie drank a glass in the face of emotion. The two chatted for a while, each laughed, and then dispersed. After the feast, the emperor, the queen mother and the royal palace dignitaries went to the Taiye Pond to watch the dragon boat race.
