readx; In the evening, Li Qing'an finally arrived in Chang'an, he did not stop outside the city, ordered 3,000 cavalry guards to be stationed outside the city, and he himself took a carriage and went directly to the imperial city under the escort of 300 cavalry.

The weather is gradually getting hotter, many people in Chang'an in order to avoid the heat of the day, they all choose to go out shopping at dusk to enjoy the coolness, Suzaku Street is full of bustling people, the carriage is not fast, three hundred guards are carefully guarding the left and right, and their eyes are vigilantly looking around from time to time.

Although he didn't know that this was the carriage of Li Qing'an, the king of Zhao, the escort of the three hundred cavalry still made the people of Chang'an give way.

The carriage was moving forward slowly, but Li Qingan was sitting in the carriage thinking about what had happened recently, he had reached an agreement with Guo Ziyi, in the Taihang Eight Mountains, Guo Ziyi's Department was responsible for blocking and controlling the Jingcheng, and the rest of the Seven Mountains were controlled by his army, blocking An Lushan and Shi Siming's army in Hebei, and letting them kill each other, it can be said that the overall situation in Hebei has basically stabilized, and the only tail is that Zhang Xun wants to lead a group of people to escape from Hebei safely, and this task is handed over to his scout leader Ji Sheng to complete.

Li Qing'an's eyes gradually turned back to the imperial court, and at this juncture, Chang'an had a Ruizhao incident, which really made Li Qingan not expect that Ruizhao was a good thing, and Li Qingan had also considered doing a similar job, but he thought that it was not the time yet, and when the conditions were ripe, he would naturally hint to his subordinates to do it.

But there was a turtle shell lettering in Chang'an, at first he thought it was arranged by Zhang Yun and others, until he received a letter from the political hall, he began to realize that this matter was not so simple, a subconscious told him that this was most likely the corner of a series of conspiracies.

From ancient times to the present, any change of power will not be so easy, especially when it comes to imperial power, more often it ends in bloody battles, Li Shimin ascended the throne and the Xuanwumen Change, Wu Zetian usurped the throne after the death of Gaozong, Li Longji fought for the throne and killed the Taiping Princess Group, and when Li Heng ascended the throne, there was the Ma Weipo Incident, and now it is his turn Li Qing'an to ascend the throne, will things be so easy?

Will the sudden Ruizhao incident at this time be the beginning of a counterattack against him? When Li Qing'an passed through Xinfeng County, he had already learned that Ruizhao had appeared in Xinfeng and Lantian County, and the suspicion in his heart became even thicker.

The carriage entered the Suzaku Gate and stopped directly in front of the gate of the internal guard, Qin Haiyang went to Wugong County to deal with the emergency, the internal guard and the intelligence hall shared the same gate, in front of the gate, Hu Peiyun and Qin Haiyang's deputy general Zhao Yansi and other dozens of generals greeted them.

Li Qing'an got out of the carriage, and dozens of people knelt down on one knee together to perform a military salute: "See the general!" ”

"Generals, excuse me!"

Seeing that Qin Haiyang was not there, Li Qingan smiled and asked, "What about General Qin?" Why didn't he see him? ”

Adjutant General Zhao Yansi stepped forward to report: "Back to the general, Wugong County found Ruizhao of the fish-belly brocade book, the discoverer and the carp were controlled by the internal guards, and General Qin urgently went to deal with it." ”

"Really? Another one was found. ”

Li Qingan smiled faintly, "It's really heaven's will!" ”

Hu Peiyun also stepped forward and said: "General, there is something important to report for your humble position. ”

"Let's go in and talk slowly."

Li Qing'an followed everyone into the intelligence hall, he first walked in front of the thousand-year-old turtle, and looked at the huge turtle, the turtle was paddling slowly in the water tank, and the words on his back flashed with a mysterious light under the light.

In fact, if there is no other Ruizhao appearing, this thousand-year-old turtle is a good publicity tool, this kind of thousand-year-old turtle is extremely rare, and it is generally convincing when it appears, which is a pity, but it also shows that the masterminds behind the scenes have spent a lot of effort.

"General, the person who wrote these words has already found out, which is really frightening."

Li Qingan nodded, pointed to the inner hall and said, "Enter the inner hall and say!" ”

The group walked into the inner hall and sat down, and the rest of them went to work separately, leaving only a few core people to report to him.

Li Qingan took a sip of herbal tea and asked first: "So far, how many Ruizhao have appeared?" ”

Hu Peiyun replied: "Up to now, there are a total of six Ruizhao, three of which have been made public, and three of which have been suppressed by us in time. ”

"Oh? What else is there besides the fish belly brocade book I just mentioned? ”

"In addition to the fish-belly brocade book in Wugong County, there is also the white jade stele of Gaoling, and then there is the Weihe Baozhu that appeared this morning."

Li Qing'an asked with great interest: "What is the water method of the treasure bead?" ”

"Hui Yu General, it was found by a boatman on the Wei River early this morning, it is an unmanned boat, there is a jade bowl on the boat, the bowl is engraved with the same words as the turtle's back, and a bead the size of a chicken egg is placed in the bowl, I heard that it is a big pearl."

"A ship?" Li Qingan smiled, "I thought the beads were floating on the water!" ”

He asked Hu Peiyun again: "Now you can tell the inside story of this incident." ”

Hu Peiyun hesitated, "Can the general go with me to see a few people first?" ”

"Yes!"

Li Qing'an stood up and followed Hu Peiyun to the backyard of the Intelligence Hall, where there was a row of rooms, which was the temporary cell of the Intelligence Hall, and the door of the cell was full of soldiers.

Walking to a cell on the far side, there was a middle-aged man tied to the cell, with a disheveled head, shirtless, and his limbs were put into iron hoops, in a large shape, this was the middle-aged man who was captured in the morning at the liquor store on his way back.

Hu Peiyun pointed at him and said, "This person's surname is Wei, he is a low-level spy in the Southern Tang Dynasty Prosecutor's Office, pretending to be a businessman, if we hadn't found a roll of paper in his hair, we would have almost released him." ”

It is said that there are more than 1,000 spies, who are responsible for monitoring hundreds of officials, but also will be sent to Chang'an to investigate the news, they are dressed up as various industries, quite secretive, according to the information obtained by the Chang'an Intelligence Hall, the Prosecutor's Office has more than 200 people in Chang'an, forming a tight intelligence network, and they are all one-line contacts, and they can't break the net if they catch one of them.

Li Qingan frowned and asked, "What did you say on the paper?" ”

Hu Peiyun took a note from the copper plate next to him and handed it to Li Qing'an, "On the note is an order, the names of a total of eight wine shops, we have interrogated them, and he is responsible for smearing the general with Rui Zhao in these eight wine shops." ”

I said..... I'll do anything, spare my life. ”

The middle-aged man slowly woke up and said something vaguely.

Li Qingan put the note back and asked, "What else did he explain?" ”

Hu Peiyun took Li Qingan to see this person, just to explain this matter, he nodded and said: "This person is just a small minion, but coincidentally, his upline happened to have something back to Chengdu, and he was temporarily under the jurisdiction of his upline, so we got the information of his upline from his mouth and caught this person at noon." ”

Hu Peiyun pointed to the next room, "General, please come with me." ”

Li Qing'an walked to the next room, and the guards at the door dodged away, only to see a man tied up in the room, in his early forties, white and fat, with no beard under his forehead, and a smooth throat, looking like a eunuch, he was drooping, and it seemed that he had also been severely punished.

Hu Peiyun pointed at him and smiled proudly: "This person's name is Yang Zhongyi, he is a eunuch, and he is also the right-hand man under Li Fuguo, and he is the head of Chang'an affairs in the prosecutor's office. ”

"You mean that this person is Li Heng's intelligence chief in Chang'an, right?"

"Back to the general, two months ago he may have been, but now his power has been stripped away, all his subordinates have been borrowed, and now there are only five of his subordinates left, only responsible for propaganda."

Hu Peiyun didn't wait for Li Qing'an to ask again, he continued to report: "According to this Yang Zhongyi's explanation, two months ago, Li Heng planned a series of actions against the general, and also gave a code name, called 'Anti-Qing', this Ruizhao incident is just one of the actions they planned, and there will be assassinations, discord, rebellion, etc. in the future, and Xiang Wang Heng is fully responsible for this matter." ”

Li Qing'an suddenly heard a clue, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "Why didn't Li Fuguo be in charge, but handed it over to Wang Heng to do this?" ”

"The general did ask a key question, and from this Yang Zhongyi's mouth, we knew a little bit about the inside story of the Southern Tang court."

"What the inside story?"

Hu Peiyun looked left and right and said, "General, this matter is confidential, please go back to the inner hall and let your subordinates report slowly." ”

Li Qing'an nodded, followed Hu Peiyun back to the inner hall, sat down in the inner hall, and Li Qing'an said, "Say it!" What the insider? ”

"General, then Yang Zhongyi said that Li Heng and the crown prince Li have had a contradiction, and the contradiction is not small, it was when Li Heng led the army to attack Xiangyang, the Li family sat in Chengdu to supervise the country, but he overstepped his authority and carried out some important personnel changes, which caused Li Heng's serious dissatisfaction, and Li Heng had the intention of abolishing the prince."

Hearing this, Li Qingan couldn't help laughing, "This is his style, don't allow others to get involved in his little power, I thought he really wanted to set a prince!" It seems that he still wants to set up another prince, and it is estimated that the new prince should be Peng Wang Li Zhi. ”

"The general's speculation is not wrong at all, then Yang Zhongyi said that Li Heng values King Peng very much, not only praising King Peng in public for having the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, but also preparing to appoint him as Shang Shuling, in charge of finance and taxation in the Southern Tang Dynasty."

Li Qingan pondered for a moment, and then he asked: "Could it be that Wang Heng supports Li Zhi, and Li Fuguo supports the Li family, so Li Heng asked Wang Heng to be in charge of this matter, is that so?" ”

Hu Peiyun said with a smile: "That's right, Li Heng just wants to take away part of the power of the procuratorate from Li Fuguo through this matter, so although Yang Zhongyi is the head of the Chang'an intelligence network, all his subordinates have been borrowed, in fact, he has been taken away from power, he himself is hollowed out, Li Heng wants to change the prince The matter is very secretive, only a few people understand in their hearts, even important ministers like Cui Yuan don't know, this Yang Zhongyi is Li Fuguo's confidant, so he got this secret, and we also happened to catch him by chance." ”

Li Qingan paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, this information was indeed beyond his expectations, if this information was true, then there might be fission within the Southern Tang Dynasty, was the opportunity to attack the Southern Tang Dynasty ripe?

Thinking of this, he said to Hu Peiyun again: "General Hu, I will think about this matter tonight, and I will discuss it with you in detail tomorrow, now you tell me about Ruizhao, I want to know the specific inside story later." ”
