Joy of Life: I dressed as a woman and became the Queen of Northern Qi!

Chapter 14 Airborne Commander, Targeting Marquis Changning!
At night, I went to the Jinyiwei Yamen in the capital.

The Jinyiwei gathered in twos and threes, some played Pai Gow, some drank and boasted.

Because the Jinyiwei were not valued, this place became a deserted government office.

Many families sent their sons and daughters to join the army to gild their reputation, which led to the increasingly bad morals of the Jinyiwei. The Jinyiwei, which was once feared by everyone, is now almost a joke.

'bump!!'

The door of the Jinyiwei Yamen was kicked open, causing the Jinyiwei who were having fun to frown and look over with displeasure.

After seeing the clothes of Qinglong and his men, several young Jinyiwei carried wine jugs and drunkenly pointed at them and cursed: "Do you understand the rules?"

"Don't you know that the masters are drinking? Whose men are you working for? Let your..."

Before they could finish their words, they saw a flash of silver light, and then a warm feeling came over their necks.

Several people covered their necks and looked in disbelief at Baihu who was putting away his knife. They opened their mouths to ask something, but only made the sound of pulling bellows.

This sudden change made the other Jinyiwei stand up one after another, draw their swords and look at Qinglong and his men vigilantly.

"Who are you? How dare you act so recklessly in the Jinyiwei Yamen? Don't you want to live?"

"Do you know who my father is? If you dare to attack me, I will kill all three of your clans tomorrow!"

"We don't care who you belong to or whose orders you receive. We tell you, here we are the emperors!"

Maybe it was because they had knives in their hands, or they felt that their status was high enough and they had a lot of people on their side, so the Jinyiwei who gathered together started to make harsh remarks.

Those who can drink and have fun here are all descendants of officials, and are not ordinary Jinyiwei.

The same was true for the ones Baihu had just killed, but those ones had the lowest status, so they were eager to show off and were the first to speak.

Qinglong looked at these playboys with a calm expression. He raised his hand and waved: "Capture them all and send them to the Imperial Prison!"

The centurions and thousand-man commanders behind him immediately drew out their embroidered spring swords and jumped up one by one, subduing everyone like tigers into a pack of wolves.

At this time, all the playboys began to panic, thinking that Qinglong and others did not know their identities, and began to reveal their identities one after another.

"My father is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, you can't arrest me!!"

"Let me go! Do you know who my father is? My father is the Minister of Justice. Even the emperor has to give him face. Let me go now, or I will let my father raid all of your homes!"

Qinglong frowned without saying a word, and in the expectant eyes of the group of playboys, he said coldly: "Stop making noise! ​​Take them all away and interrogate them strictly!"

After saying this, he ignored the cries and curses of the playboys and walked straight to the main seat, followed closely by Baihu and Xuanwu.

As soon as Qinglong sat down, he took out the imperial edict and said to the empty hall: "Shen Zhong, Lord Shen, are you not coming out yet? Or do you want us to invite you?"

Shen Zhong, who was standing behind the pillar, narrowed his eyes when he heard that, and veins popped out on his hand that was holding the hilt of the knife.

After a while, he let go of her hand weakly. After his expression changed for a few moments, a fake smile appeared on his face again.

After walking out, he bowed to Qinglong and said, "I wonder who you are, sir?"

Seeing the flying fish uniforms on Qinglong and the others, Shen Zhong's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he had a vague guess in his mind.

The next moment, Qinglong's words proved that his guess was correct.

"With the support of the Queen and His Majesty, we are the new commander of the Imperial Guard. Here is the imperial decree. Sir Shen, would you like to check it out?"

Qinglong's words surprised Shen Zhong a little. He keenly heard the special point in it. In the past, the Queen Mother and His Majesty made decisions together, but now it is the Queen and His Majesty. Does this mean that His Majesty wants to take back the power?

Shen Zhong thought about it for a while and then figured out what it meant.

"You are joking, Commander. How can an imperial edict be false? I wonder why the Commander is here in person this time..."

He didn't think that Qinglong and his companions were done with just these actions. Judging from their attitude just now, those playboys were not their target.

As smart as he was, he naturally figured out that since His Majesty wanted to re-employ the Jinyiwei and airdropped a commander, it was natural that he wanted to re-establish the reputation of the Jinyiwei.

But he couldn't guess who the target was. After all, there were too many possible targets, and there were not many clean courtiers in this court.

Qinglong looked at him with some surprise: "Shen Zhong, right? You are a smart man, very good! It's a pity that your strength is a little lacking, only at the level of Wan Hu."

He didn't care how much waves these words caused in Shen Zhong's heart. He stood up, walked to the door, and looked at the full moon hanging high in the sky.

"The night of the full moon should be a time for family reunion, but what a pity... Do you have the file of Changning Marquis Weijian?" Qinglong asked in an ambiguous tone.

Shen Zhong, who had been bending over behind him, raised his head in shock when he heard this, his face full of disbelief.

Marquis Changning, the empress dowager's brother, although he had no real power, he relied on his status as the empress dowager's brother to form a clique and oppress the people.

It can be said that although Wei Jian was not in the court, there were many of Wei Jian’s people in the court, and of course they also belonged to the Queen Mother’s faction.

He knew all this, but he didn't expect that the first target of Qinglong and his men would be Wei Jian. It seemed that His Majesty was going to break off relations with the Queen Mother.

Shen Zhong hesitated for a moment, then immediately bowed and said, "Please wait a moment, Commander. I will be there soon..."

Before he could finish his words, Qinglong raised his hand to interrupt him: "It's OK if you have it, go get the person first, there's no rush for the file!"

Before he finished speaking, he walked out of the yamen, and the centurions and thousand-householders followed Qinglong in an orderly manner.

Shen Zhong stood there in a daze, not coming back to his senses for a long time. It was only when Baihu patted him on the shoulder that he came back to his senses.

"My eldest brother is right. You are indeed a smart person, but sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. Just do what you should do."

Bai Hu held the Embroidered Spring Knife and smiled ferociously: "Let's go. After tomorrow, we will make those ministers terrified of the Jinyiwei!"

This sentence touched Shen Zhong's heart. Although he was still a little hesitant, he had already made his choice.

Since His Majesty has such ambition, then he, Shen Zhong, should follow!

Reviving Northern Qi and even annexing Western Hu and Southern Qing, these are his lifelong pursuits!

"Everything is for Northern Qi!!" Shen Zhong said in a deep voice.

Baihu, who was walking in front, raised his lips when he heard this, and was very satisfied with Shenzhong's reaction.

They could all see that Shen Zhong was a man with deep thoughts, an old fox.

But such a thoughtful person is a loyal minister.

If Shen Zhong fails the test just now, news of the accidental death of Commander Shen Zhong will be announced tomorrow.

It’s not that they are cruel and ruthless, but the Jinyiwei are like knives, so they must be sharp enough and no gaps are allowed.

This is a qualified knife!
