Chapter 557: Confusing

The passages in and out of Chang'an City are all blocked, but the Shi family has the unique advantage of flying pigeons to pass books, so it can still keep the information transmission relatively smooth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But the intelligence system was inevitably greatly damaged, because there were people on the beggar gang's side who mutinied!

According to the judgment, most of the beggar gang members have taken refuge in the hostile forces, and only the gang leader Hong Sangong and a group of backbone forces under his command still maintain their loyalty to Shi Lei. And it is not surprising that the force that has been low-key in recent years, the huge force that has suddenly risen.

Now it seems that this force is not really dormant, but has chosen the way of infiltration to continue to expand its power, since they can buy most of the beggar power, it is no wonder that their movements in recent years, Shi Lei can't understand.

But now there is basically no need to continue to guess whose subordinates they are, it is obvious that they are the same people who caused the turmoil. And they also have a certain understanding of Shi Lei's strength, and they even found out the gang force that Shi Lei was ambushing in Chang'an City, and even dispatched a certain number of troops to encircle and suppress them.

Fortunately, these city fox society rats are relatively scattered, and they are all used to a life of hiding and hiding, and the real loss of power is not particularly large. Especially those core forces directly sent by Shi Lei are still lurking in Chang'an City.

Moreover, the other party's understanding seems to be relatively shallow, and only the gangs with relatively large targets have been discovered, but no measures have been taken against other latent forces.

It's just that in this way, Shi Lei's forces can only all fall silent, patiently inquiring about the news in Chang'an City, and there will be no overt activities.

Shi Lei slowly had a general understanding of the situation in Chang'an City, although access was restricted, but Chang'an City was not really chaotic, after all, the source of everything, including the scope of the fight, was basically still controlled in the imperial city, and there was no reason to do it to ordinary people.

But those nobles who live in Chang'an City are treated completely differently, they are the power that can affect that position, and naturally they are also the forces behind the toss of these things that need to be guarded against, so the enemy has also sent some forces to take care of the several markets where the nobles are concentrated.

But he didn't do anything too much, he just limited their freedom. After all, these rebellious soldiers, like the gang of people who are now guarding Chang'an City, a large part of them are from the Sixteen Guards, let them directly kill Cheng Biting Jin and their old superiors, I am afraid that they will not be able to do that.

And to be honest, even if this rebellion succeeds, the new emperor will definitely need these Zixungui to support his work, can't he kill them all, and then rely on the new emperor to do everything alone, right?

As long as he is in his right mind, he will not do such a stupid thing, he wants to dominate the world, not just to make the world chaotic.

Of course, it is impossible to have no measures at all, for example, coming to capture Shi Lei or even kill him is a way to kill chickens and monkeys, but this strategy has not achieved the desired effect.

As for who started this rebellion, there are different opinions in Chang'an City, Shi Lei's first thought must be Li Zhi's father and mother, and the second is Hou Junji's goods, but the most marketable statement in Chang'an City is that it is the hand of the prince Li Chengqian.

It is said that the earliest battle started in the imperial palace, and then spread to the entire imperial city, and the martial law in Chang'an City was even more calm, only in Xuanwumen there was a fierce battle, the specific results, and the forces involved in the battle who were on both sides, but no one can know.

When he heard the news from the city, Shi Lei's mood was very complicated, if the battle first happened in the imperial city, Li Chengqian's suspicion was indeed greater, because he commanded a large force under his hands.

The guards of the East Palace are his direct subordinates, and after several years of rectification, they are basically loyal to him, and they are not leaking everywhere like at the beginning. Under the leadership of Xue Rengui, this force is very strong.

It should be said that in the imperial city, in addition to the original guards, it belongs to this force, and if Li Chengqian buys some more guard forces, even if he directly fights against Li Shimin's forces, it is not without a chance of winning.

Coupled with his foreign aid, entering the palace from the Xuanwu Gate, he has a greater possibility of taking the throne by force. This also explains what happened before.

But Shi Lei really didn't want Li Chengqian to start all this, so wouldn't it mean that Li Chengqian didn't listen to these suggestions that Shi Lei said, or that Shi Lei had mistaken this so-called friend from the beginning.

Not only did he fail to see his obsession with the throne, but he also didn't see that people were playing with themselves at all, and he didn't treat himself as a friend at all, otherwise how would he have sent troops to fight him?

Except that Shi Lei is not very willing to accept this reality, everyone seems to recognize this possibility, which is also a reason for Shi Lei to remain skeptical.

Such an undisclosed rebellion can be known to the world, and the technical content is inevitably too low, and it will be difficult to convince the public at that time, right? He, Li Chengqian, is not the Li Shimin of the year, he has to be famous, and his strength is even more crushing his opponents.

But if it weren't for Li Chengqian, who else would be possible? Is the combination of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, whom Shi Lei has always been afraid of?

Although these two people are experts in this area, Wu Zetian has not suffered as much damage as in history, and he should not still be pathologically attached to power. Li Zhi does not rule out this possibility, but in the past few years, his power should not become such a fighting climate.

And although Li Zhi has been living in the palace because he was favored before, since he was married to Wu Zetian, he has already moved out of the palace even if he is a complete adult. And the rebellion started first in the palace, which is a bit unreasonable.

For similar reasons, it can almost rule out the possibility that Li Tai is manipulating everything behind his back, this person basically eats by mouth, even if it is the power that has been developed, it is mainly in the civil official team, and it is extremely unpopular in the military general team, if he can put on the current battle, Shi Lei does not believe it.

Could it be that it really Hou Junji? To say that he really has no shortage of military strength, even if it is not so popular, but it must be admitted that his military talent is still very strong, and he has indeed attracted many fierce generals in the army.

But it's still that problem, it's very likely that his power will attack the imperial city from the outside, and it doesn't seem so convenient to say that it is directly from the palace.

So no matter what you say, there must be a force in the palace that participated in this incident.

But who is manipulating all this behind the scenes, in Shi Lei's eyes, it becomes even more confusing.
