Chapter 307: Intelligence Behind Intelligence
Yan Fu is already the envoy of the Dongchuan Festival, but the dark line he left in the capital still continues to play a vital role, Yan Fu's most successful thing is that he has developed power in the palace, which is top secret, except for him and Li Rupei knowing, even Cui Anqian and others don't know, because these forces are eunuchs.
When Yan Fu developed these eunuchs to become a dark line, he made a full choice, and he also went through careful consideration and thinking, he would not develop those very powerful eunuchs, or very promising eunuchs, he developed those eunuchs at the bottom, but they were also eunuchs in important positions, these eunuchs have no background, maybe they have no interest in their lives, these eunuchs are more miserable than ordinary people, and their physical defects make them have no future, they can only endure humiliation silently, was called by those powerful eunuchs, and if you were not careful, you would be severely beaten or even beaten to death.
These eunuchs are all in the harem, not at all, but they can know everything in the harem.
Even when Tian Lingzi cleaned up the harem, he didn't notice these eunuchs, because although these eunuchs were in important positions, they did the most despicable things, and they were not inconspicuous at all, and Tian Lingzi would not think of replacing these eunuchs.
It was also at the bottom that these eunuchs were able to stay in the harem, and they were able to pass on what happened in the harem or the palace to the outside in a steady stream, and passed on to the dark line left by Yan Fu, and then these pieces of information were quickly sent to Xiangyang, to the palace, and to Li Rupei's hands.
Yan Fu's method of encircling these eunuchs is actually not complicated, that is, to take care of the families of these eunuchs, so that their families will not be cold and starving.
In fact, the families of most eunuchs have no way to let their descendants become eunuchs, looking forward to being able to eat and not starving. It's a pity that there are very few eunuchs who can really take power, and many eunuchs are still very poor and looked down upon.
Yan Fu's method firmly enveloped the eunuchs, after Yan Fu left the capital, these eunuchs were very worried, but the news that came later reassured them that their family life was still good. He still receives money and food.
Li Rupei is not interested in eunuchs, but he also knows that eunuchs are not exactly the same, most of the eunuchs still have no status, and they are very humble all their lives.
Yan Fu enveloped these eunuchs. Li Rupei did not object, and through these eunuchs, he also obtained a lot of information in the palace, and it can be said that what happened in the palace. Li Rupei knows everything.
Xiangyang, Wangfu, Li Rupei's face was pale, and he walked around in the study.
On the desk was the information sent from the capital. Mainly the intelligence inside the palace, including the intelligence of the harem.
After reading this information, Li Rupei was already speechless in anger. Although he said that he looked down on Li Yi, the emperor, but the majesty of the royal family is inviolable, I can't imagine that Tian Lingzi has become so arrogant, and he is so mad that he dares to imprison the emperor, restrict the money and food of the harem, and at the same time kill the palace maid at will, these behaviors are no different from Cao Cao in the late Han Dynasty, but Cao Cao's ability is by no means comparable to Tian Lingzi.
When it comes to the dignity of the royal family, Li Rupei can't be indifferent in the world of Li Tang, there is hatred between him and Li Yu, but that is an internal matter of the royal family, and there is no need for outsiders to interfere, not to mention that eunuchs like Tian Lingzi, even if it is his father-in-law Cui Anqian, he can't meddle in the disputes within the royal family.
When looking at this information, Li Rupei was carried away by anger, and he wanted to immediately lead the soldiers of the Iron and Blood Army to the capital and kill Tian Lingzi with a thousand knives, but this thought was fleeting.
After calming down, Li Rupei began to carefully look at the letter on the desk, this time, his mood calmed down a lot, and he began to ponder the details of the information.
A situation quickly alerted Li Rupei, and he patted his forehead, almost missing a big thing.
In the intelligence, it was said that the emperor's mood changed, after Tian Lingzi took control of the palace, the emperor was very decadent, borrowed wine all day to kill his sorrows, lay on the woman's body, didn't think about anything, didn't do anything, but after a period of time, the emperor's mood quickly changed, and the mood obviously improved, and it was precisely because of this that Tian Lingzi also noticed that he captured a palace maid who the emperor had the most contact, and later this palace maid died, Tian Lingzi also entered the palace, and it is said that he met with the emperor, that is, from that time, Tian Lingzi began to restrict the money and food of the imperial palace.
Li Rupei read these paragraphs repeatedly, it should be said that the information is flat and straightforward, there will be no emotional color, and there is no analysis, just talk about things, as for the matter of analysis, Yan Fu was responsible for it before, after Yan Fu left, no one was responsible, and all the information was sent to Xiangyang Palace.
Looking at it, Li Rupei's brows furrowed, the emperor's emotional changes are by no means a simple matter, it should be something big, the emperor is not very old, although he has been on the throne for more than ten years, he has not been tempered, he can't hide his emotions, and his happiness and sadness are written on his face, which Tian Lingzi is clear, so he will doubt it.
Tian Lingzi caught the palace maid, it must have been interrogated, but nothing was asked, as for Tian Lingzi entering the palace later, he must have wanted to ask the emperor directly, and it is estimated that he didn't ask anything, Tian Lingzi, who was annoyed and angry, took the method of reducing the palace expenses, one was to publicly humiliate the emperor, and the other was to really make the emperor suffer.
It is conceivable that when Tian Lingzi entered the palace, he must have met the emperor, and the conversation between the two was definitely unpleasant.
Li Rupei shook his head, asking himself not to think about Tian Lingzi, and he shifted his attention to Li Yu's changes.
Li Yu is the emperor, but also a young man with strong blood, he has been on the throne for eleven years, even if he is playing and having fun, but the emperor's dignity is still there, and he was humiliated suddenly, which must be unbearable, which is why the emperor is unusually decadent, and then his mood suddenly improved, it is not that he has seen through anything, Li Yu's age, he can't see through anything.
Li Rupei suddenly thought of Emperor Han Xian in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Emperor Han Xian was insulted by Cao Cao in every way, and even the queen was killed by Cao Mo in front of him and did not dare to speak, Emperor Han Xian, who couldn't bear it, wrote a blood book, hid it in the jade belt, and gave it to Uncle Dong Guo, thinking that Uncle Dong Guo contacted the outside power and cut off Cao Cao in one fell swoop, but unfortunately Cao Cao was detected.
Could it be that Li Yi has contacted the forces of the outside world and can confidently cut off Tian Lingzi and others.
This kind of thing, it doesn't seem very likely, Emperor Han Xian wrote the blood book, after all, it is a story in the romance, and it is really difficult to operate.
The palace is firmly controlled by Tian Lingzi, and the soldiers stationed in the palace and the eunuchs in the harem should be Tian Lingzi's henchmen, thinking about how easy it is to contact the outside world under the noses of these people.
Li Rupei suddenly remembered something, and began to dig out the previous information in the study.
Looking at this information, Li Rupei's eyes fell on a name, Song Wentong, who had just been promoted to the general of the Zuo Shence Army, who was in charge of garrisoning the palace and was Tian Lingzi and Ma Tengyun's henchmen.
Li Rupei looked at the name Song Wentong and shook his head slightly, he didn't seem to be familiar with this person, and there didn't seem to be this person among the famous figures in the late Tang Dynasty.
Standing up, when he walked again in the study, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed into Li Rupei's mind, he faintly remembered something, walked quickly to the desk, and looked at Song Wentong's resume.
After a long while, Li Rupei raised his head and muttered to himself.
"I was almost negligent, it turned out that Song Wentong was Li Maozhen, by the way, Song Wentong hadn't changed his name at this time, he was really confused, such an important task, he actually forgot, shouldn't be, shouldn't."
After sighing with emotion, Li Rupei's eyes looked at this Song Wentong again, this Song Wentong is not an ordinary person, the king of Qi of the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, he is a generation of heroes, it should be said that he can achieve great things, Song Wentong's mind must be very big, and he is never willing to always live under the command of Tian Lingzi and Ma Tengyun, you must know that this Li Maozhen, who dares to compete with Li Keyong, is also a master who is not simple.
Li Rupei's thoughts suddenly brightened, Li Yi hoped to turn over, hoped to get rid of Tian Lingzi, and hoped to get in touch with the outside world, only Song Wentong could help, and Song Wentong was also willing to do such a thing for his own interests.
However, Li Rupei, who had just figured it out, immediately fell into a puzzle again, Song Wentong was Tian Lingzi and Ma Tengyun's henchman after all, how could he get Li Yu's trust, you must know that Li Yu hated Tian Lingzi and others, and it was impossible for him to have any contact with Song Wentong, unless he was thinking about finding death.
racking his brains, Li Rupei could no longer think of why there was a connection between Li Yi and Song Wentong, but instinctively, he felt that Li Yu's attitude had changed dramatically, and he must have a direct relationship with Song Wentong, it should be said that without Song Wentong stationed in the palace, Li Yi would not be able to get in touch with anyone.
Skipping this link, Li Rupei naturally thought of the power that Li Yu could rely on, the south was Li Rupei, and the north was many feudal towns, and there could be no power to rely on in the capital.
So far, he Li Rupei has not received any news, which means that Li Yu is not asking for help from him, and only the northern feudal towns are left.
Thinking of this, Li Rupei's face instantly became grim, and he faintly felt that when the chaos in the Tang Dynasty was coming, I was afraid that it was coming, and he tried his best to exterminate the Yellow Nest, and finally kept the peace on the surface of the Tang Dynasty, but people are not as good as the sky, and the chaos is coming.
What will happen after the feudal town enters the capital, Li Rupei can think of it with his eyes closed. (To be continued......)
